Then high school happens

A peculiar party (part 3)

~Alex's POV~

Marci handed me back my beer and ran inside. Oh god. I shouldn't have done that... I knew she didn't drink but it was so tempting. I ran in after her. Zeke tried to stop me but I wouldn't let him. I needed to get to Marci. I liked her. This was my fault.
I walked in to Marci puking her guts out. I got all choked up seeing her like this. I kneeled on the floor next to her. I held back her gorgeous hair and rubbed her back.
     Z and Emily walked in to see me comforting their friend. They glanced at me suspiciously and then asked if Marci was alright.
     When she was finished she stood up to brush her teeth. Her hand set the brush back in the owl shaped cup I turned her around and kissed her full on the lips. Her breath was minty and filled my head with the strong scent. I loved her. This summer was the best time of my life. We raced each other on the waves of the beach with crappy boogie boards. She would laugh when she won and rub it in my face.
     Her face filled with surprise, then melted with content. She kissed back. I noticed a flash and Marci pulled away. Emily had taken a picture. Marci ran away from me chasing Emily for the picture. Z smirked and crossed her arms. Then she grabbed my beer and said "Ya didn't finish it." I shrugged and she tilted her head back to finish it off.
     I walked out of the bathroom to find Marci. She was standing by the kitchen sink texting someone. Emily was standing next to her frowning. Marci must have deleted the picture.
     I grabbed her arm and pulled her up to me, making out with her again. She blushed and put her arms around my waist. I picked her up and she crossed her feet behind my back. Her arms were in my shoulders. I noticed Emily took another picture but I didn't say anything because I didn't want to let go of Marci. I set her down but then picked her back up in the bridal carry.
     She smiled and kissed my cheek. I took her upstairs into her room. She seemed like she was drunk but hadn't consumed enough alcohol to actually be. Howard was in there with the lights on all alone. He stood up and ran out winking at me.
     I set Marci on her bed. I lay with her. I turned off the light...

~Emily's POV~

     Alex took Marci upstairs in a bridal carry... What did that mean..? No I thought to myself. She's smarter than that. I refiled my drink and went to find Lilly and Z. Come to think of it, I didn't actually know Z's real name... Hm. Whatever. I bumped into a tall figure, with a rock-hard chest. It was Tucker.
     My drink went all over his shirt.
     "OMG I'M SO SORRY!!" I apologized. He just smiled and told me it was fine. He slid his sweatshirt off and ripped his soaking shirt over his head; revealing his six pack. I blushed hard and he noticed.
     "Hey are you single...?" He asked
     "Y-Yeah why...?"
     "Wanna hang out next Saturday?"
      My heart jumped into my throat. "Sure!" I said. He pulled in and kissed me. His chest against mine...

(Time skip one hour)

~Marci's POV~

     I ran out of the room embarrassed of what had happened. I cupped my face in my hands and started to cry. Howard and Violet stopped me. "What's wrong?" They asked in sync. I shook my head and sniffled. Violet hugged me and Howard raised an eyebrow. Lilly walked over and punched him.
     "She doesn't want to talk about it Howard. Let it go." She scolded.
     Miserable at Best by Mayday Parade came on and we went to go get a slice of pizza from the kitchen. Tonight was going to be good from this point on...
