Hate Sex is So Hot

16 - The Winter Ball

MERRY EARLY CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!!!! AND MERRY CHRISTMAS EVE

i wish u guys all the ptx and superfruit merch

It was the night of the winter dance; and saying I was excited was an understatement. Kirstie had a white dress with a black belt that matched with mine; Tyler called us the 'cutest best friends ever.'

The dancing floor was filled with people; and small tables were settled in the corners. A long table on the side had food and drinks. It wasn't the best dance ever, to be honest... but we all got a table and some sodas and I really started to feel at home with all of my friends.

The amount of people that visited our table really made me feel well known, to be honest. And Kirstie said a cute boy was watching me when I moved my hips around playfully once we got up to dance.

"I am so glad winter break is here." Kate said, sitting down and resting her head on the table. She was obviously exhausted from dancing through the whole night. I just smiled.

"Yeah, I got my family the best gifts."

We kept up the chatter until I heard something. It was a rowdy shout, and I looked up. It was a table of...

"Ugh." Avi said. I narrowed my eyes at Scott's friends, picking out Alex almost immediately. It took a second of me being bitter to hear Kate after she had sat back up again.

"Where's Scott?"

Most everyone at school by now knew that home and Scott weren't too fond of each other. But when I looked a little closer, I realized that yeah, Scott wasn't anywhere.

"Dancing, maybe? Or getting water?" Kevin suggested.

"He'd probably be dancing with Alex." I said bitterly, and I felt Kate look at me for a second before deciding that it was better not to speak.

Thinking for a second, I pulled her close to me and snapped a picture. She smiled, even though she was obviously just ready for bed. I typed out a quick caption for the snapchat photo.

have so much fun!! xoxo (sent to everyone)

Maybe it was dumb of me, but I just wanted to see if he was like... you know, not dead or something. Right? That's all. Maybe he started missing me so much that he couldn't handle it. Hah.

Scott Hoying: Sent 7 seconds ago

I was ready to wait, but...

Scott Hoying: Opened one second ago

Wow, ok. So he was probably just sitting in his room or something, right? Maybe he was sick.

"Ah!"

I turned around along with Kate, Avi, and Kevin to see Kirstie gasping. It appeared that she'd just spilt her soda all over her and another guy's outfits. She quickly started to apologize but he surprisingly just assured her that it was all ok, and ran to go get some napkins.

"Kirstie!" I yelled. She looked up at me.

"He's hot!"

After I said that she playfully narrowed her eyes and scrunched up her face, so I laughed.

"For you. Not my type."

After helping out Kirstie, I made my way into the hall getting a drunk when I heard that laugher again.

Scott's friends. Wow, it's my pleasure.

Looking up, I saw that they seemed to be going outside. And being as curious as I was I couldn't help but follow them. Why? I have no fucking idea, I don't know what I was expecting.

Alex was laughing as he pulled a handful of things from his bag.

Wow. A joint. Ok, this was useless. Sighing at the lack of dirt I'd gotten on them, I made my way back inside to the dance.

The night was fun; but it had to come to an end eventually. I waved my goodbyes and headed around the back. I honestly just wanted some quiet right now; after that huge crowd. But of course, I couldn't even be spared to go around the back of a school building. To be fair though, it was night and it didn't exactly look the safest.

"Is this Mitch?"

"Hey! Mitch!"

I looked back. Alex and some other guy were sitting on a picnic table. Oh, great. I turned my back on them one more, but I heard the crunching of feet on ground.

Perfect!

Turning around and not even attempting to fake a smile, I crossed my arms and waited for the two to approach me.

"What is it." I didn't care how rude I sounded. Alex just laughed.

"Dude, lighten up. I just wanted to say hey." He grinned and punched my shoulder in a playful way. "You know, the roommate of my friend is my... friend?" He turned to his friend as if for confirmation. I just tried to walk away, but of course High And The Idiot just kept following me.

Alex was just laughing softly. "Scott told me that you got all mad... why'd you have to do that? We were gonna get a lot of money."

"From who?" The guy next to him asked. So they were both high after all.

"My buddy Travis. He-"

I turned to them both and stopped dead in my tracks.

"...Travis?"

I was crying; and Kirstie was holding me. I couldn't help it.

"W-...what if he's dead?" I whispered. "Because of... me?"

"It's not your fault." She said softly and rubbed my back comfortingly.

"I-It... is... I yelled at him..."

"He yelled first, Mitch. Right?"

"Uh-huh... but I yelled and he got distracted and we crashed and it's... my fault..."

So he really did have it out for me. What a dumb way to try and get back at me, though. Did he want to make me a little sad? I would think he would wanna break both of my legs. Then again that could still be a possibility, so I just ran away from Alex and his friend and straight up to my dorm.

Scott didn't look up when I entered, but I could see his head move towards me when I slammed the door. Sniffling, I took a tissue from the shelf. Fuck. The last thing I wanted to do was cry in front of Scott right now.

I liked Travis; and Travis liked me. And then I almost got him killed. I liked Scott; and I thought that he might even like me. But he was just doing it for a couple bucks.

That's right. Scott was in on this. I blew my nose and took another tissue to wipe my eyes, then throwing them both away. Taking a deep breath I walked to the bathroom. I really just wanted to fall into bed and go to sleep; but the silence around me right now was so excruciating, I just wanted to hear the shower running.
