Hopelessly in love

Chapter 6

I finally found Dez chatting up a senior and pretending to drink the beer from the cup, and twisting her hair flirtatiously.

"Well you know, I could always give you my number. You could, oh I don't know, call me up sometime?" Even with her back to me I could see her batting her lashes and biting her lip. Dez was a huge flirt but just like she wouldn't actually drink beer, she would never actually be okay with one night stands. She just likes to pretend she was.

That little heart-breaker.

"Uh, ya baby," the guy slurred drunkenly,"that sounds good."

"My phone number is 742-" she started but I stopped her from giving up this valuable peice of info by annoyingly tapping her shoulder tell she turned around.

"What Toby?" She snapped narrowing her eyes at me.

I glared back, I was so not taking her attitude,"You wake me up, drag me to Adams party, ditch me, and leave me to the hands of Collin, so you can make fake promises to some dude. Aw, hell no Dez. Let's go." And grabbed her arm,  and quite like Salone did with Adam, I haughtily dragged her away.

Dez of course pouted the whole way.

As soon as we got out the front door the puppy dog pout turned into a mean scrowl,"seriously Toby?" She smoothed back her slightly ruffled hair,"I was this close" she pinches her fingers together,"to a lunch date."

I rolled my eyes. I've come to conclude the only reason Dez flirted was to get free food. "Hey, tyler will thank me." That shut her up. Ya Dez, remember Tyler?

As we started the 15 minuet walk to Dez's house she turned toward me," so, what happened with Adam?" She wiggled her eyebrows at me suggestively.

"Um, we, like danced and-" I started but she cut me off with a squeal.

"OH MY GOD YOU DANCED?!" She shouted with another squeal.

"-and then," I cut back in, "Salone came and dragged him away."

Her face imminently fell,"Your sure it was Salone?" She asked hesitantly.

"Who else in the school has a boob job AND lip injections?"

She nodded her head slowly,"It's true, no one else does... Maybe she'll just forget about it." Her face brightened again,"so what? Did you grind?" She winked suggestively and playfully rubbed her butt on my bare legs.

"Eeww, god no Dez. Do you not know me at all?"

She rubbed her chin thoughtfully,"Well, you do know that Salone will be out for blood correct? And that somehow you caught Adams eye..." She paused,"So all we need to do now is make you more badass than Salone and dress you like a sexy goddess everyday."

"But then Adam will just notice me for my sexy goddessness, not my personality. That also seems like a lot of work. And I'm the least badass person I've ever met! "

She nodded in agreement,"this is all very true but we just need Adam to notice you, then he can get to know you. So the first order of buisness, is this." She pulled the leather jacket open and yanked my dress back to its original position. I gasped in shock as the cold air hit my bare thighs.

"Toby, no!" She smacked my hand away as I reached to adjust the dress. "You look like a goddess. No hiding your beautiful legs."

I rolled my eyes,"the goddess of sluts maybe."

"That's not true, you look classy as hell." She smiled sweetly at me.

"Hey baby," some guy came up to me and pulled me close to him, his fingers digging into my waist,"wanna fuck?" I placed my hands on his shoulder and pushed as hard as I could, but he wouldn't budge. I could hear Dez yelling profanities as the guy turned so now my hands where on his chest and my body pressed up against him. As he leaned down to kiss my neck, I felt something pokey near my lower belly. Was that his?

Holy crap his penis was touching me.

I resumed my struggle full force as his kisses went lower, I saw Dez joining the attack slamming her fists on his back, but then the guy was ripped away from me, and he stumbled, falling on his but on the road.

"Leave her alone man!" My savior shouted, and the guy skimpered away like a beetle.

"Toby,"Collin said,"you look like a slut."

"Told ya." I said to Dez.

Dez looked around sheepishly, anywhere but me and Collins piercing gazes,"Okay, maybe we need a new plan." She admitted.

"Ya, you think?" I turned and continued walking, Dez and Collin at my heels.

"You still need to look smoking, just maybe not a teenage sex godess." She started spewing out outfit plans and things we needed to shop for, I stopped her list at thongs.

"Nu-uh, no way I'm wearing string in my butt crack." I protested.

"What? But thongs are a must! Especially in tight clothing."

"No way I'm wearing tight clothing." I protested again.

"But he needs to notice your butt!" She exclaimed.

"No."

"Please?"

"Nooooo"

"For me?"

"Definitely not."

"What are you two talkin about?" Collin cut in.

"My master plan to get Toby noticed by Adam." Dez explained.

"What?! Why? The guys a dic-" Collin stopped at the look I have him,"Jerk." He substituted for a not so nice word,"I mean, he doesn't even know her name!"

"Exactly why we need to do this! He'll know Toby's name and be madly in love with her!"

"And Salone?" I looked at Dez, Collin's question was legit, how would we keep Salone off my butt? if her plan worked at all, we needed a good plan to keep her from burning me alive.

"We haven't thought that far yet." Collin snorted as we walked up Dez's front steps.

"Sounds like a great plan Dez." He said sarcastically.

As we entered the house Collin slid his jacket off and slumped on the couch,"what are you doing?" Dez asked turning the lights on.

He covered his eyes and sat up,"trying to sleep."

"I didn't say you could sleep here." She snapped.

I sighed,"Dez it's like 2 am and  your moms out of town, does it really matter?" I walked to the closet,grabbed my cousin a blanket and threw it at him.

"Thanks Toby." He said happily.

Dez narrowed her eyes at him,"fine but you stay on the couch."

He nodded,"turn the lights off will ya?"

I flipped the lights out before following Dez to her room.
