TOXIC

Chapter 1

I stand over his hot and muscular body as he lays there asleep. I have a bucket in my hands ready to pour on him. He had already been sleeping over time and I though what better way to start the first day of work. A bucket of water over him. 

"Wake up" I say kicking him. He doesn't wake up.  "Wake up" I say softly and pour the water over him. He jumps straight up and you can see rage fill his face. He looks at me then down at his soaked sheets and grey sweatpants. "Fantastic."

"What the fuck was that for?" he asks still full with rage. 

"Time to get up" I reply smirking at him. 

"What's the time?" he asks wiping his face and looking around. He looks at his bedside table and sees his cigarettes are missing. "Where's my cigarette?" he says looking at me. 

"In a very special place" I say nodding my head. 

"Where are they?" he says standing up and moving towards me. 

"Bro, being at that distance isn't gonna help you" I say poking his shoulder. He steps back and sits on his bed. I step forward and move a seat behind me and sit on it. "Be down stairs in five. And before you came we got you some clothes you might want to wear" I say pointing to the suitcase in the left corner of the attic wall.  I walk out to leave him to get changed and walk down the kitchen. He comes out with the clothes he had on yesterday and I could see my mom was annoyed she didn't waist that money for his to wear a black leather jacket and ripped skinny jeans that could be destroyed in a days work. 

"Oh, that reminds me. Can I go to Hailey and Joey's birthday party tonight".

"How are they?" my mama says. 

"Best friend and boyfriend."

"Yeah, sure. Now, I need to go to the market. Do your chores and invite Stefan to the party."

"But mama, he doesn't know anyone" I say as she walks out. He walks up to the table, looking at me curious. 

"A party. I'm in" he says putting his hands in his tight jeans. 

"Fine. You need to feed the chickens and the lamb" I say pointing outside.  "Oh, also collect the eggs."

"What are you doing then?"

"I finished my jobs before you woke up. And someone's coming over" I say. Someone knocks on the door and I know immediately know who it is. It was Joey. I open the door and kiss him. Stefan sees me kissing him and walks out. "Happy Birthday" I say smiling at him.

"Who's the bad boy? Hope he hasn't been looking at you" he says looking at me smiling. 

"He won't any more" I say smiling and looking outside to see him fighting the chickens. 

"You made him go in with the chickens and the lamb?" he asks. I nod my head and smile again. "Your one naughty girl" he says lifting me up on to the table.  We make out until Stefan comes in, you could see he was trying hard not to look. 

"Do you have any band-aid? Your idiot lamb, bit me" he explains. I look at Joey and we both laugh. I jump down and start to wrap up his finger. Joey explains how he was to go and kisses me on the head. I close my eyes as his lips reach my hair then open them again to dress up Stefan's finger.  Stefan sits down and I wipe the bite clean

"You touched her feet. Didn't you?" I ask. He looks down up at me and nods his head. 

"Yeah" he replies. I laugh and he looks ups at me again. Our eyes break apart when someone walks in. I shake my head and look to see who it is. It was Hailey.

"Hi!" she yells.  I run over and hug her leaving Stefan alone. 

"How are you?" I ask. 

"Um. Sorry to ruin. Well I'm not sorry. But could you please finish dressing my finger?" I look over to him and back at Hailey.

"You made him feed Jeffrey the lamb. And who is he, the sexy guy?" she asks looking at me.

"Yes. I had to get a source of entertainment. And this is Stefan" I say.

"It wasn't enough you had your tongue down someone's throat?"

"He's coming to your party tonight".

"Oh, yay!" she says.

I walk out and wait for Stefan to finish getting dressed. I try and pull down my Black Lace Up Long Sleeve Jersey Bodycon Dress but it won't budge.He walks out and looks surprising hot with his white top, black vans and black leather jacket and jeans. But I wasn't about to tell him that. I look at him for 'a moment and then my sister- Winnie comes. Breaking my eyes away from him. 

"I have something for you" she says walking in. She doesn't notice Stefan is standing in the lounge room so she keeps talking.  "I picked something up for you, that you could wear tonight. She opens the bag and pulls out a couple of pairs of sexy lace underwear. I look over at Stefan to see if he was listening or saw the underwear. His face is in shock and he's trying so hard not to smile.  

"Thanks" I say shocked and trying to stuff them into the bag. She pulls them out again.

"Aren't you going to wear them?" she asks. 

"I will" I say stuffing them into the bag.  And point to Stefan who is now laughing. 

"Oh" she says quietly. I feel so ashamed. I put the bag on the floor and put my hand over my face. 

"He's cute" she whispers to me. 

"Ok, bye" I say pushing her out. "Were already late."

"Fine. I'll leave you to alone" she says smiling at him.

"We're not a couple. I don't like him" I explain. I push her out the door and walk over to get my bag.  "Don't tell anyone" I say pointing my finger at him.  He smiles one more time then his face is dead straight. "That's more like it."

We get to the party and balloons fill the room, and alcohol filled the tables. 

"Want a drink?!" he shouts into my ear. I shake my head and walk over to Hailey we hug and then we form a line of girls dancing to the beat of the song. 

"Come on girls. Save some of it for the guys" Joey says walking over towards me. He takes my hand and pulls me away. I do the sort of dance moves you see in the movies, the crumping and body roll- sexy moves. I continue to dance with Joey until Hailey comes over. 

"Dance with him" she says pointing at Stefan.

"No. Why don't you?" I ask.

"I don't know him. He looks all alone. Ask him to dance." I look over at Hailey and roll my eyes I go over to where he is standing and look over at Joey- who is a safe distance away from me but is still in a spot where he can see me well. 

"Want to dance?" I say.

"What?" he asks stepping closer.

"Want to dance?"

"And I'm meant to say yes?" he asks.

"Yes."

"So you came up to me and asked me to dance, am I meant to be thankful and privileged?"

"No. Most girls have the unfortunate tendency of being whiny little twits. I am not. Hailey told me to dance with you" I explain and grab his hand pulling him into the dance floor.  We dance for a bit then he goes off and I continue to dance with Joey.
