Life is the Long Game

Chapter 40

Third Person:

Around 9:30pm, Mr Matthews walked onto the stage and announced that it was time to crown the Prom King and Queen.

Maya's POV:

As Mr Matthews walks up to the stage, we gather around to face him and the room becomes quiet.
"Good evening Abigail Adams High Juniors! It is the time of the night you have all been waiting for. In this here envelope I have your Prom King and Queen for this year." He says showing off a shiny envelope. I feel a little nervous as I'm nominated for Prom Queen but I don't think I'll win, I didn't want to be and I wouldn't want to be anyway as my date won't be the Prom King. I wanted to pull out but I wasn't allowed so I just didn't do any campaigning. Riley is pretending that she doesn't want it because she doesn't think she'll win, but I can tell she is dying to win.
"And your Junior Prom King is... Lucas Friar!" Mr Matthews announces, and Lucas walks up to the stage to collect his crown. Riley looks really disappointed, because she doesn't think she'll get in. When she tried to campaign she was given a load of hassle, some jerks calling her a slut and saying it was wrong for a teen mom to be Prom Queen. I go over to her and hold her hand tightly.
"Thank Peaches." She whispers to me.
"And your Junior Prom Queen is... Maya Hart-Hunter!" My jaw drops.
"Maya I can't believe it, you won!" Riley squeals.
"Who even voted for her?" I hear someone in the back say. I look around its Kelly. How did she get in here? I don't even care.
"Me, about 150 times." I see Josh say proudly.
"He doesn't even go here!" Someone else complains. I laugh and slowly manage to make my way to the stage. Mr Matthews gives me my crown and a speech to read.
"Okay, so apparently I have to read this speech?" I stutter into the microphone.
"As Prom Queen I am therefore declared to announce that this year we are crowning and Junior Prom Prince and Princess also." I read. Then Lucas has to read something.
"So without any further ado, your Prom Prince is Mr Farkle Minkus! And your Prom Princess is Miss Riley Matthews!" He beams.
Riley looks so happy, and Farkle has fainted. Riley runs up to the stage and kisses Lucas passionately. Mr Matthews coughs to interrupt them and they stop.
Farkle eventually comes back around and we dance together after I dance with Lucas and Josh as Enid left a little while ago, she wasn't feeling well, she stayed for a good few hours though, but Farkle no longer had a date.

*1 am*

We have just finished up at the school and now Riley, Josh, Lucas and I are on our way to the afterparty that Darby is throwing. We had brought a spare pair of clothes to change into so we don't ruin our outfits.

Farkle decided to go home to Enid.
When we arrive, there are red cups stacked up high on a table and alcohol everywhere. This is a party.
"Hey guys! You made it! Welcome! You're just in time we are about to start the drinking games!" A tipsy Darby welcomes us.
"Let's play spin the bottle!" Yogi yells and we gather round in a circle. That's when I see her. Kelly, why is she at our junior after prom party?

"Let's start by all taking a tequila shot!" Yogi suggests as he and Dave prepare them.
"Maya! Meet my cousin Kelly!" Darby squeals introducing me to the bitch.
"Hi. Don't try it on with Josh for once please." I say bluntly and go and collect my shot.
"3, 2, 1! Tequila!" We yell.
"I'll start the game." Kelly announces and purposely spins the bottle to Josh. I give her a dirty look as she goes to snog Josh, he pulls away after a millisecond. That's my guy, Kelly looks so pissed off. Josh then spins the bottle and it lands on me. The game goes on for about half hour. We then play beer pong and do lots more shots, drinking and dancing. We have come to the conclusion twister would be a good game to play. We are all drunk now so this could be interesting.
...
Kelly, Josh and I are the only ones left on the twister may everyone else is out. She goes to make her next move and pushes me over in the process. I'm out. Great! Then Josh makes his move. He is very close to Kelly. She lets go of her balance and purposely falls on Josh. She goes to kiss him, he keeps dodging. That's it! I throw her off him and slap her before taking Josh's hand and going over to get more alcohol.
"Maya, we should go home, I think we've both had enough to drink tonight." Josh tells me.
"Whhhhyyyyyyyy? I like it." I giggle.
"Come on, baby."
"Okaaaayyyyyyy, just one moment."
I get five shot glasses, fill them and down them. Whoa.
"Come on, that's enough for one night now, babe." He picks me up, bridal style and carries me to a cab. He takes me to my place and my Dad isn't there, he obviously stayed at Matthews' place.
I pin Josh up to the wall and kiss him passionately, I move down to his neck and start to suck a soft spot. We make out in the living room for a while before I drag him to my room and we start making out on my bed.
"Maya. We. Should. Stop. Before. We. Go. To. Far. I don't. Have. Any. Protection. And. I can't. Not yet." Josh tells me in between kisses.
"Okay." I sigh. "But how about a little preview of what you'll be marrying?" I smirk.
"What do you mean?"
"I'll give you a little show." I smirk again and put on some sexy music.
"I don't see anything wrong with that." He smirks back. I give him a strip show and lap dance and we make out on my bed again. Then it's all a blur...
