Apple Love Book 3 ✔

11

Most of the ride back to the university was quiet. We headed to Izze's dorm to get ready. Her roommate turned out to not be there which Chuck was disappointed. I sat on a stool in front of the mirror as Izze did my make up. Not too much! Just fixing my eyelashes and eyebrows. Chuck ran in with a sexy cowboy costume on shooting me a grin.

"You need some eyeshadow or eyeliner love." Chuck said coming over to me and I rolled my eyes with my shoulders slumped. "Your pretty down about your parents aren't you?" he asked while putting eyeliner on himself.

My shoulders slumped more as Izze put eyeliner on me. "A little." I mumbled and waved my hand dismissing the make up. I wasn't a fan of it but Chuck was forcing this onto me. I was surprised he hadn't got Izze in a costume or wear make up yet.

"A lot." he said rolling his eyes and handed me the sexy fireman costume making me grumble with hot cheeks as I took it. "Go get dressed and we'll talk afterwards." he said pointing to the bathroom door making me roll my eyes as I slid off the stool and went to the bathroom.

I had some trouble putting it on but did it. I looked at myself in the mirror and my face went red. Why was I doing this again? Oh yeah, Chuck... I grumbled fixing the suspenders and trying to tug the shorts further down to cover more skin. It was no use. I huffed fixing my hat before walking out to see Chuck forcing Izze to at least wear a cowgirl hat which she put on then glanced at me. Chuck glanced over and squeaked hugging me.

"You look great!" he let me go beaming and put carmax on which I did the same. Izze was reluctant but did too. "Let's go!" he pumped his fist into the air before running out the dorm.

I grabbed my jacket before following. Izze closed the door behind her and we walked out far behind Chuck. He was running towards the door to outside. He pushed the door open as soon as he got to it and we walked out in time before it fully closed. Izze and I both didn't know where the party would be. Chuck was our guide and leading the way. I started catching up to Chuck so I wouldn't lose him while Izze walked close but behind.

Chuck lead us all the way across campus to what seemed to be a dormitory, but the suites dormitory. We followed Chuck up the stairs to the door. He rung the doorbell as we got to his side and he knocked. The door opened revealing a male with light hair and facial hair. He looked us up and down before grinning.

"Hello there." he said grinning and Chuck rolled his eyes smirking.

"Hey, can you let us in now?" Chuck asked and I coughed away a laugh as the guy nodded opening the door wide enough for us to walk in.

As soon as I got in you could smell alcohol everywhere. I scrunched up my nose slightly and glanced around at all the bodies either dancing, pressed together, or standing around talking. All different lights shined all over the room as It Ain't Me by: Selena Gomez played. My eyes scanned the room for Beck but I had no luck. My shoulders slumped slightly and I felt a smack on the back making me yelp and glare back to find Chuck grinning.

"Dude, the party isn't just about Beck. Let's have some fun!" he said grabbing my hand and dragging me to the kitchen, losing Izze along the way as we pushed past people.

Chuck grabbed a beer and I rolled my eyes pushing away the can he tried passing to me. I glanced up to find Beck staring at me. I felt my cheeks get hot and quickly looked away.

"Alright Alright I'll keep it for Izze, we gotta find her." Chuck said glancing at me then blinked at me.

"What's up?" he asked as I heard footsteps make their way to us and he looked up then smirked. "Oh."

"Hey Taylor." Beck said clearing his throat. "Nice costume." he said looking me directly in the eyes with his blue green ones having me slowly sinking in his gaze.
