it was now friday, and i had just gotten home from school. it was 3:45, and the party started at 5:30, so i decided to go ahead and get ready.

i looked through my closet for a while before picking out a very oversized a day to remember shirt that i would wear as a tshirt dress on top of some fishnet pantyhose, with a black and white flannel around my waist. to top of the outfit, i slipped my feet into my black doc martens. my hair had already been straightened this morning, but the bottoms had started to curl under, so i straightened them out before moving on to my makeup.

since this was my first party, i figured i would put on more makeup then usual. i spread the foundation all over my face before blending it out. after it was completely dry, i did a dark contour and some highlight on cheekbones. i blended out different shades of grey and black eye shadows onto my eyelids before giving my eyelids a wing by painting on my eyeliner.

i looked at the clock and it was already 4:45. i gave myself one last look in the mirror. no wonder i only have one friend because everyone else thinks i'm some kind of emo freak...

it's because i am.

but whatever. i can live with one friend if i know that she truly cares for me. i grabbed my phone and texted ashton to tell her that i was on my way to pick her up.

one of the flaws about being best friends with ashton was that she lived on the other side of town. it's about a 15 minute drive from my house to hers, so it kinda sucks.

about 20 minutes later, we were on our way to Lexi Willington's house for the party. yay?

as i drove, i was thinking about everything that could possibly happen at this party.

what if i got my first kiss?

i silently laughed at myself. who would want to kiss the queen of emo weirdness? definitely nobody i knew.

what if i got shit-faced drunk?

i actually snorted at this one. i've never even had a sip of any alcoholic beverage in my whole life. i'm about 99.9% sure that i won't get drunk at my first party. although, that .1% still could have some kind of effect.

"so," ashton said, snapping me out of my thoughts. "who are you gonna hook up with tonight?" she wiggles her eyebrows towards me. i rolled my eyes.

"you do know that i've never even kissed anyone, right? i guarantee that i won't hook up with anyone," i chuckled, taking a left at a four-way stop.

"you never know, tal...i got my first kiss and lost my virginity at my first party, which was last year," she said, looking out her window.

ashton hadn't gone to my school her whole life like me. this is only her second year here. she moved here towards the end of the first semester last year. she got her first kiss and lost her virginity at her old school.

i slumped down in my seat and was silent for the rest of the car ride.
