Running On Empty.

Chapter Two: Party Trouble.

Everyone hopped out of my father's huge, white suburban. I heard footsteps approaching my side..

Levi appeared magically infront of me, wearing a grin that fit his perfectly sculpted face. His six foot frame towered over me and once again I mentally cursed my parent's for giving me midget genes. Neither of my parents were short, but I assume that somewhere along the descending of our family's genes, someone, somewhere was incredibly small. I was barely five three. I glared into his baby blue eyes and he flicked his bleach blonde hair out of his face before he ducked down and picked my miniature frame off the ground. My front was crammed against his amazingly built midsection and it actually hurt.

"OH.. Levi Town! You better put me down. Right. Now!" I gasped. There wasn't much room to breathe while smooshed against him. Often times, the boys handled me and Paige roughly, and we had to remind them that we were quite small.

I guess it came from us being so close for so long. We thought of each other as siblings rather than friends. Levi, Dylan and Nate were quick to go big brother mode when me and Paige began dating a new guy. These were my best friends.. my only friends.

"What's wrong Rianne? You're scared you're going to realize how much of a hunk I am?" He laughed as he lowered me back down to the gravelly drive way.

"You're so friggin' annoying sometimes, Levi," I breathed, fixing my wrinkled skirt.

Before I could react, he stooped over and pecked me on the lips before ducking off in the direction of the house with Dylan and Nate.

"I LOVE YOU RIANNE TENSLEY!" he shouted over his shoulder before being sucked into Sam's house where music and laughter raged on.

I clenched and unclenched my fist while stomping my feet like a toddler. Paige came over, straightening her mini skirt and trying to keep me from seeing her giggling face.

"Ugh, I'm going to kick his ass! Why can't they just leave me alone? I'm really not that interesting," I moaned.

Levi was certainly a character. He was a perv. We all adjusted to that years ago. Somehow, after eleven years we never got too sick of having him around. Being mad at Levi for an extended period of time was hard as hell. You just couldn't do it, I certainly have tried.

"Because, you give them the reaction they want, girlie. And by the way, it's your fault we're stuck with them. You should of never called them dick heads way back when. We wouldn't even know those idiots," Paige reasoned.

She was right..

"Uhh, that's true. But, I also would've never met you." I tossed back.

"Whatever. We'll get them back later. Lets just have fun," she said, grinning and dragging me into the path of Sam's house.

I had already gotten over Levi.

I was now worrying about the trouble we'd get in tonight.

Sorry it's so short. I'm uploading more. I just found this a good part to cut off the chapter.
