I walked back through the hallway, I felt good. For once everyone's eyes were on me. Because I looked good, I may have looked slutty, but I still felt good. I walked not even acknowledging the boys stopping mid step and staring, I felt like I was finally an actress, an actress worth watching.
I opened the door to Alicia's room and shut it slowly to tease the guys outside the door. And then I had my moment of muffled squeals. I quickly noticed that the girls hadn't joined in and I stopped and looked up. "What? What happened?"
"Um, have you ever Googled your boyfriend's name?" Annette said staring wide eyed at her computer.
"He's not my boyfriend" I said only taking on part of that sentence.
"Honey, he's like a celebrity..." Alicia said picking up the laptop and walking over to me. Just Googling the name 'Jeremy Shada' gave you thousands of results. Most of the recent ones were about him and Blair. "Oh my god" I said as it finally clicked "he's an actor, like a real life actor, who's been in movies and stuff."
Alicia gave off a scream "HE'S FAMOUS. HE'S FAMOUS AND HE'S YOUR ROOMMATE DO YOU THINK HE KNOWS TOM HIDDLESTON!?"
"Shut up, do you want the whole campus to know?"
"Speaking of whole campus knowing, I hope you can fit a lot of people in your room" Annette said smiling and taking down at her laptop back.
"Holy shit Jeremy is going to kill me." I said starting to freak out.
"That's good. It's the new you right? You'll make him jealous and angry, and that will make him confused which will make him like you faster, but it will also make him want to make you more jealous." Alicia said. Which just confused me.
"But let's not get too worried about that. Right now we need to worry about Jude and that's it" Annette said changing the subject "you're going to need a different outfit"
"But I like this outfit, I feel pretty and slutty all at the same time."
"We can make that happen with other clothes don't worry."
We waited til about 7:30 to get ready, the party started at 8:00, Alicia put on a tight, backless white dress with white lace over the top. Annette wore a short red dress, with black converse. And I was put in a super tight black, strapless dress. I honestly looked like I was wrapped in black bandages, with the same red pumps because I was too scared to walk in anything different. My makeup was reapplied and then we walked over to my room, about five minutes before people started to arrive. We greeted everyone with smiles and hugs and they greeted us with alcohol and music. While everyone else was partying hard I was anxiously awaiting for the arrival of Jude and Jeremy. "It will be fine, stop biting your nails" Annette said pulling my hand away from my mouth "here drink this" she said handing me a cup of something that smelt terrible, I downed it fast so I wouldn't have to remember the taste for long. "Oh sweetie, don't do that with every drink you get tonight or tomorrow will not be fun" she said patting my back and walking off.
Just as Annette left I heard Alicia yelling my name "Cameron, someone's looking for you" she was pulling me towards Jude. It was my time to shine, I can't stuff this up, the few classes I'd had with Mr Taylor better start paying off with all the improvisation we've been doing. "Glad you could make it" I said wrapping my hand around Jude's neck.
"Wouldn't miss it for the world" He said putting one hand on my ass.
"You guys want a drink?" I heard Annette saying from behind me, I turned my neck to see her holding two red cups.
"I'd go for a drink" Jude said taking a cup without hesitation. I grabbed one too and Annette winked and walked off, not too far, just far enough to not seem like she's watching us. "You look fine tonight" Jude said again staring at my pushed-up-to-my-chin-boobs.
"I do what I can" I smirked and pulled him to one side of the room. The room was getting extremely crowded. I can hardly fit in it when it's just me, but to have half the school it was pretty hot, which might not have been a bad thing, but I knew I would start sweating soon.
We danced for about half an hour stopping for drinks and to talk with other people. I saw the door open and Alicia look straight at me. I knew Jeremy had just come in.
I pulled Jude close and started grinding up against him. I was facing him and his hands were on my ass, I was waving my hips over him, occasionally brushing my hand over his crutch and looking up at him with seductive eyes. Jeremy came storming over "what is this?"
I acted a bit more tipsy than I was "come on Jerebear, it's a party lighten up have a beer" I said still grinding up against Jude.
"So when I throw a party I get screamed at and when you throw a party I need to lighten up?"
"Jeremy she's right, lighten up" a familiar voice came from behind him. Blair. Of course she would show up here. Out of all nights. Jeremy sighed with frustration and eventually turned away and got a beer. I had my eyes locked on him until Jude pulled me closer and turned my head around. I front grinded him for a while longer until I got sick of not knowing what Jeremy was doing, or where he was so I turned around and looked around for him, still grinding Jude. I finally found Jeremy and we locked eyes. He had his hands on Blair's waisted while she brushed her ass against him. I started grinding more vigorously against Jude, reaching down and touching the floor while pushing my ass higher in the air. Jeremy turned Blair around to face him while still watching me over her shoulder. I did the same with Jude but got much closer and put my fingers in his belt loops. His grip on my ass tightened as I bent up and down his body. Jeremy pushed Blair down and pulled her up and she obeyed and continued doing that. I don't know what went over me at this time, but I did what I thought would make Jeremy most jealous and I kissed Jude, long and hard. "Get off of her!" Jeremy yelled causing the whole party to die down and watch. Jude was about to pull away but I pushed his lips into mine and continued the kiss. "Hey dude I said get off of her" Jeremy said again pulling us apart.
"Whoa man chill out, she came on to me" Jude said putting up his hands in surrender.
"I don't care stay away from her"
"Jeremy you don't own me." I said pushing him out of the way.
"You. BITCH." I heard a scream from the audience watching, and out came Blair. "I knew you were trouble from the minute I heard your name. He is my boyfriend. Mine. Got that, do you know what that word means?" she said with a real passive aggressive tone.
"I'm sorry, but how is this my fault? When did I come onto Jeremy?"
"When you guys kissed."
"He kissed me. You said yourself he was acting."
"Well ever since he kissed you he's been acting weird. Like you've done more than kiss."
"Maybe he's acting weird because he knows I'm a better kisser than you, and he obviously likes me." That was when things got heated, I didn't have control of the words that were coming out of my mouth but I didn't want to stop them either. "You know he kissed me when we weren't performing. He said himself he wasn't acting. He likes me. And not you. Sorry sweetheart but I win this battle." After those sentences came out of my mouth I got a hard slap to the face. I stepped back a couple inches and looked up at her with my hand to my face. "You know what?" I said slipping of my shoes "I was going to let you go, but now, now I'm going to have to kick your ass" I stepped closer to her but Alicia got in the way "I think it's time you left" she said to Blair.
"No I want to see little-miss-powerful in action."
"Get the fuck out of here before I kick your ass" Alicia said.
Blair walked to the door and turned to Jeremy "well, are you coming?" all eyes turned towards Jeremy who was obviously in an awkward position and he lowered his head and followed Blair out the door. "Tell me again that my boyfriend likes me more than you?" Blair said with a bitchy smile before walking out.
"EVERYBODY PARTY'S OVER LEAVE NOW." Annette said holding a jacket and a handbag that she didn't bring to the party.
