I looked into the bathroom mirror, brushing out my thick, curly, brunette hair while waiting for Christina to get here. I noticed how the eyeliner brought out my hazel green eyes. I made a couple last minute touch-ups until, the doorbell rang. I ran over to the door and welcomed Christina in, along with her mother.

"Hello, Mrs. John-"

She chuckled, "Call me Bethany."

"Alrighty. Hello, Bethany."

"Hello Alex, I'm glad to be able to see Dustin and Erik again."

"MRS. JOHNSON!" Both boys came running down the stairs and hugged her tightly.

I looked at both of them sternly, "You two be careful, and be good while I'm gone. Maybe I'll get you two gift if you behave."

"Bye Alex!" Dustin hugged my legs.

Erik jumped onto my back, "See ya Alex!"

"Bye!"

Christina pulled Erik off my back, and I hugged them both goodbye before leaving.

"See ya Bethany," I hugged her.

She hugged both of us, "Have fun girls!"

Finally, we made it. I couldn't stand anymore of Christina's babbling about Tristan and how 'hot' he is. Don't get me wrong, he's really attractive, but when Christina talks about him nonstop it makes him a lot less like able. I approached the front door and rang the bell. Jordan swung the door open Christina and I.

"You made it!"

"Yep, I did. Oh, almost forgot... This is my friend Christina. Christina, this is Jordan."

Jordan winked at her, "Hey."

"Hey!"

I walked off as they started having a conversation about school-drama. From the looks of it, this seems like any other party someone could go to. I don't see what's so 'legendary' about it.

Someone behind me tapped my shoulder, "Hey Alex!"

I turned to see that it was Lexi. I sighed, "What?"

"I was just saying hi." She started giggling.

"What's so funny?"

"You're about to find out..." She snickered.

"Lexi, if you-" I suddenly felt boiling liquid pour down my back.

"OW!" I turned around and saw Brittany holding an empty bucket. Just as I was about to punch her gut, I felt something slimy go down my back.

I grabbed a handful of whatever it was and held it in front of me. There were worms crawling down my back! I threw them at Brittany and squirmed around, trying to get the rest out of my shirt as the rest of the party was laughing hysterically at me. Many people had their phones and cameras out. I threw the rest of the worms into a crowd of laughing jocks and ran out the door.

"Alex-" Christina tried to grab for my arm, but I pulled away too quickly.

*CHRISTINA'S POV*

"Alex, Wait up!" I called after her, until someone put a hand on my shoulder. It was Tristan. I loved the way his blond, short hair was curly and how his blue eyes always seemed to sparkle. His smile, it was the most perfect thing about him.

Before I knew it, his smile began to fade and turned into laughter, "You don't wanna chase after a loser like her."

"R-Right..."

"Hey, you wanna dance?" He held his hand out to me. How could I refuse?

"Of course I do!" I took his hand and he pulled me onto the dance floor. This was going to be the best night of my life!

*ALEX'S POV*

I can't believe I was THAT gullible to think Jordan would suddenly invite me to a party. I can't believe it! I thought maybe, he was actually giving me a chance for once instead of always being so judgmental. Of course, I was wrong. I know I promised myself I'd stop cutting for Erik and Dustin, but I can't take this anymore. Good thing I always kept my pocket knife with me... Red liquid dripped out of my body as the blade slowly danced across my skin. I cut until there was no more room on my arms. I seemed to be stumbling around as I attempted to stand. My vision started blurring as I saw a figure run towards me. I couldn't hear anything. At that moment, everything turned black.
