Voodoo Masters

Chapter 6

"So are you a virgin?" One of the girls asked Taylor. Karin let out a snort before giving her friend a snack on the arm.
"Oh my god stop it," she cackled. Her boyfriend tightened his arm around her shoulder as he used his free hand to take a deep breath trough his blunt.

The smell of cigaret smoke and burning marijuana filled the apartment and Taylor was trying her hardest not to gag. She had dealt with it for about half an hour now, but things just kept getting worse and Taylor was getting closer and closer to standing up and leaving. She knew that she really should have left the second she saw the things these people were going to do, but at the time she had no clue what exactly to do.

"I'm not comfortable answering that," Taylor finally told the girl with a straight face. She let out a snort and shifted in her seat so she was sitting completely on her boyfriend's lap.
"It's okay, we all know you are anyway," she laughed, shooting Karin a glare when she kicked her.

"Don't be a bitch, bitch," Karin shot, her tone playful. The girl rolled her eyes and then turned to her boyfriend. He was holding the blunt and he took a breath trough it before placing it into her mouth. She took in a breath before puffing it out into his face. How romantic.

"I'm high as hell," Karin giggled. She traced her fingers along the underside of her boyfriend's jaw. He smirked at her and gave her behind a squeeze. Taylor pressed her lips into a tight line to keep from saying anything she would regret.
"We're all high as hell," the other girl laughed a little to loud.
"All of us except miss Taylor," her boyfriend said, pointing right at Taylor.

"Is this what you guys do every day?" Taylor blurted out. All of them nodded with grins plastered on their red faces.
"Carley here was like you a while ago. She never even considered any of this stuff 'till she met me," one of the boys said, tightening his arm around his girlfriend. She let out a snort and cuddled deep into his chest.

The boy had dark hair that was spiked up slightly in the front. His bright blue eyes were blood shot and Taylor couldn't help but think that he would be very attractive if he didn't do drugs.
"Believe me when I say that it was the best decision I have ever made," Carley sighed. "This is the life man." She set her head against her boyfriend's shoulder and let her eyes close.

"Hey Tay Tay," the other girl spoke up. Taylor cringed at the nickname. She had been called it her entire life and absolutely despised it.
"Yes?" She said, purely annoyed. The girl sat up in her seat and leaned forward on her knees.
"Is your last name Mire?" The girl asked dumbly. This got Taylor's attention. She looked up from her hands and at the girl. She was looking at her with wide bloodshot eyes that were completely clueless and empty.

"Yes it is. Why?" Taylor asked, shifting uncomfortably on the floor. The girl cocked her head to the side slightly and her expression remained blank.
"I heard someone say your name at the party in town last night...not sure who it was but I definitely heard it...a few times actually," she explained, her words causing Taylor's stomach to rise into her throat.

"Wow girl you've been here a day and everyone already knows you!" Karin laughed. "I'm impressed!"
"But I have no idea why it's not like I did anything they would remember me by. Besides I didn't tell anyone my name last night," Taylor said rapidly, standing up from her seat on the ground.

"Woah woah calm yourself," Carley giggled as Taylor began anxiously pacing the room. "Around here, that's a good thing. You want to be known. Everything is easier when you are." Taylor chose not to listen to the stoned girl. It was most definitely not good. Her head was spinning so fast that it brought upon a splitting headache.

"I have to go I'm sorry," Taylor stuttered, tugging down on her skirt.
"Aw come on!" One of the boys chimed. "You'll relax a bit if you take a few hits." Taylor shook her head and grabbed her purse off the counter. She slipped her shoes on as Karin shouted,
"Tay, the rest of our friends haven't even gotten here! You have to stay!"

The last thing Taylor wanted was to see more stoned people. All she wanted to do was go home and try to forget once again the confusion of her new life. Just as she grasped the door knob, the door was pushed open, sending her stumbling backward.
"Finally! It's about time you got here!" Karin yelled from the couches.

Taylor was pushed to the side as two men strutted into the room. They looked oddly familiar, but she couldn't place where she had seen them. A few seconds later she realized that they were the two DJs from last night's party. She hadn't recognized them with shirts on.

Taylor shook her head as the newly arrived guests greeted their friends before taking a breath trough the blunts that where being passed around. She turned on her heal to leave but almost ran into someone. Her eyes trailed up the black shirt and finally landed on the face. She couldn't help but gasp at who she saw.
"Liam?"
