Penumbra:Shades Of Covet

Chapter 10: Stoned

"Oh hey,Alice! You're here! I thought you would show up like seven evening!" Seline greeted me on her summer outfit, with a red wild hibiscus on her hair.

Everyone was on their summer attire. Well guess what I wore, jeans and tee.

"Oh are you the pizza delivery gal? GREAT! Now where's our pizza?" Stella joked around hopping with great energy.

"Ha-ha. Very funny." I jadedly said

"I brought you extra swimsuit Alice." Myla said, pulling just the swimwear.
Im in good luck we're of the same sizes.
"Now go and change, the bathroom's over there." She added.

I jogged my way to c.r when I came across Cole, "Hey Alice!" He called, then ran off to where the gang is. I ventured until I reached the place.
I placed my backpack on the sink counter and was to undress myself, when suddenly someone stepped out from one of the rooms.
It was Jake, who just finished from shower.

As he wipes his self, I got a look of his body. It's a good build, just right, not big nor stocky, just right fo his masculinity.

"Oh hey, been there for long?" He asked.

"Oh--uh-er- n-no, I just came. As you can see." I stammered trying to gain back myself.

"You're....hot in that outfit."those words slid out my tounge.

" Uh, how did a topless outfit become hot?" He chuckled, my face turned red. "But thanks. I 'm going to the pool now. See you there!" He said wiping his face then left.
I don't know why, my heart raced when I saw him.

You got to be kidding me Alice.

"The cake's here!" Seline called bringing it to their open cottage,Stella in her school swimsuit, hopped out of the water in excitement of eating the cake.
"Not now you niquit! We're eating these altogether." Seline raised the cake out of Stella's reach. Of course, the little girl pouted and stomped her feet.
Ley arrived on the place with macarons and doughnut, wearing her two piece already with a pale pink shoal wrapped around her hips.

"Sorry I'm late. I cooked all these macarons and donuts. Let's get the party started it's almost late afternoon!" She said, putting down her summer hat.

"Uhh, we are already starting. As you can see, some are in the pool already." Seline said unwrapping boxes of foods.

"So what're y'all waiting for? Let's parteeeeeeeh!" Ley pumped up the volume of her mini sound system attached to her bag. No it wasn't a bag but a mini sound system itself.

Alice heard the beats from the cottage, so she hurried up to catch up with them.

Val arrived with pasta, which after she put what she brought, Cole welcomed her with a passionate kiss.
"Eyueck!" Stella grimaced.
"As if you would not llike it if it's done to you." Seline mocked her again.
"What about you?"
"What about me?" Seline growled.

"Woah girls lose your heat against each other, okay? Today we're going party so no fights for today. Okay?"Myla intended to make the two have ceasefire, which came along well to each of them.

Just before Alice could reach the cottage, she felt she was running on a gelatin path,she's not advancing, but rather staying on that place. A voice spoke after her confusion is significant.
" You seem not to believe me. Huh?"
"It's not like that." Alice said, starting to a stop.
"Here, take this stone with you. Whisper to it, tell it the name of who you want to control, it can only be used once. Don't worry there's no cost to it, just for fun and games." The shadow gave a black stone to Alice.

After giving the stone, and was supposed to leave, Alice halted him from fading.
"Strange, you're not afraid of me anymore." He remarked.
Alice stood straight and firm "Let me ask you one thing." She asked.
