Cool Kids

Chapter two

I waved back immediately like the lowkey freak I am, somehow losing my coordination when I stepped forward followed by the dreaded event.
I fell straight landing on my face earning a few giggles, may have also exposed some unwanted area in the process and even mysteriously lost Daisy.

Also, I couldn't be more embarrassed when Alec started in my direction but walked past me, to his group of friends whom he was waving at. The group of guys who were laughing at me like hyaenas. He joined them, and turned around when I was gathering myself up and pretending the event never happened. Ofcourse he saw me tripping on air and having my ass fly out of my dress gracefully. I expected him to laugh like the bunch of hyaenas he accompanied but he didn't. He turned back to them and I sprinted out of their sight, stepping in the crowded home with a hope of not having to face Alec whole night.

For the umpteenth time, my cell phone distracted my mind to the point I had to finally pick up his call.

“What?”

“Hey, missed ya too darling.”

“What do you want, Harry?”

“Oh, I was just bored. This camp was a bad, like as bad as this guy in  yolo trousers in front of me, idea.”

“Told you so.”

“No, what you said exactly was 'Holy mama, I can't go to this shit  because I am totally broke as fuck. What part of this do you not understand anime boy.”

“Shut up.” A chuckle left my mouth.

“They are having an illegal pool party, hijacking the area that is not supposed to..uh hijacked.” Harry whispered.

“So, What made me so interesting that you are here on a conversation with me instead.”

“Aw, babe you'll always be my priority on top of some so-called party that includes people bathing in each other's pee.”

“Ew. You are gross. Anyway, I am kinda busy. Anything important?” I pushed myself into a lonely corner where people weren't pushing me around.

“Nah. Just boring stuff. William McDonough drew eyes on Xavier's bum and his girlfriend discovered it while having sex and was like totally creeped out. Iris has been her weird herself. Ella is busy being the stupid stereotypical nerd she is. Andrew is hooking up with Caroline...oh and River said hi. Gotta go now. Don't miss me too much.” He blew a kiss and hung up, after announcing that my boyfriend was hooking up with a hoe like morning news.

Suppressing my anger, I jumped in the crowded hall reeking of alcohol, and nymphomaniac teens.
Luckily, I found Daisy not eating Savannah's face but rather they were engaged in some game. Or some sort of witches ritual judging by the way they were sitting in circle. Daisy spotted me and motioned me to join them. I scanned the group with no familiar faces and decided to sit beside Daisy.

The bottle spun and landed on Savannah's side. She was given a dare to call up her ex girlfriend Veronika and ask if she'd like a threesome. Jeez.

Plot twist. Veronika agreed.

I should have backed off knowing Truth & Dare was nothing but a pathetic excuse for all your secret fantasies to come true. Few more spins left Daisy topless, some random couple in an awkward position and a girl who had to oink like a pig at every spin.

It was all fun and games until my turn.

“Hey, go easy on my girl, ya guys!” Daisy shouted loudly to everyone, her hands flying to my shoulder, tugging me in.

Savannah smirked, “Alright then Robin. Hug the first person that comes in through the door.”

I stood up confidently advancing in the direction as the door flung open, leaping into the first person's arms. “For five minutes.” Savannah shouted over. My eyes grew wide as the realisation hit me.

“Hi?” I heard the guy speak. Not just any guy, It was Alec.

Alec the fuckin wrong timing baldwin.

Every ounce of the confidence left my body as soon as I looked up, embracing him. Positive points were that he wasn't furious and he was smelling like heaven and also, I am a good cuddler.

“Hi?” I flashed a toothy grin, still clinging to him. It was a whole new level of awkward.

“So..What's up?” He fought a smile back on his face.

“Just clinging around. Teehee” Seriously? I need to be hit in the face with a brick for such a hideous pun.

I had to run away after a whole five painfully awkward minutes, because I just couldn't stand to be there after the dares got even more nastier. While on my way to somewhere safe, I came across Cody who tried to grope me at all the wrong places, giving me a hard time pushing him away and he got the audacity to laugh at my futile attempts.

I identify Cody Murray as a geek from few of my classes in school but this guy in front of me was something else. Without waiting for some knight in shining armour to appear to rescue me, I stomped my heel on his foot. The only damn thing they are good for. He stumbled back and crashed into the wall, sitting down, still laughing as if I cracked the most hilarious joke to ever appear in twenty first century.

Yeah. So fucking Hilarious.

I sat around with a few other acquaintances for the next two hours who didn't make me hug my crush for five minutes until Daisy crashed in. Her face was pale. Her wild expression letting me know, something was up.

“Uh..Robin...Let's go.” She stammered, running a hand through her hair. She bit her bottom lip. Her state worried me but I followed nonetheless without any further questions.

If only little did I know that these two hours were the beginning of my end..
