Period -Daniel Seavey

sixteen

Amaya and Esmeralda walk up the stairs and stop at the front door.
The taller girl ,Amaya, knocks on the door waiting for someone to open it. Jack who was eating Ramen noodles rolls his eyes in annoyance and laziness. "Someone's at the door" he screams hoping one of the boys would pity him and open the door.

"Lazy ass" mumbles Corbyn as opens the door smiling at Amaya while he leaned his body on the door frame. "Hey" she wraps her arms around his torso taking in his manly cologne. "Corbean this is Esmeralda" she introduces her and walks into the house throwing her shoes in a corner.

"Look at you?" she smiles hugging now calm Jack from behind

"Hi isn't it iconic that you're eating ramen?" she asks smiling slightly. "Maybe" he answers blushing as he looks up at the girl who's skinny arms were still around his shoulders. "Where is -" "I'm here" yells Daniel walking down the stairs with a huge smile on his face that showed his tooth gap that made her smile.

Immediately she lets go of Jack's shoulder making the boy stick his under lips out while Daniel walks up to her wrapping her in a huge hug. "New cologne?" she whisper/ asks. "Just for you" the boy mumbles back intertwining their hands as Amaya's cheeks turn a light shade of red.

"We've decorated the basements and the yard outside so now we need help decorating the living room and picking up the cake" he informs her. "Yes sir" she looks at the time calculating how long it would take. "We've got four hours left so let's get it started" she cheered clapping her hand. "Corbyn and I are going to get the cake" says Jonah announces from the couch. 

"I hope no one's buying alcohol" Amaya raises her eyebrow looking at the band sitting on the couch while she sat on the floor. The boys exchange looks and smirk at the girl. "Actually we bought alcohol well Eben bought it" announces Jonah proudly.
Amaya was sure that it was his idea. "Anything else maybe drugs?" she asks sarcastically but the boys start smiling.

"Maybe you can never know that's La to you" smiles Zach.
"How old are you? 15 or 16 what do you know about La you're from Texas" snaps Amaya serious while everyone starts laughing except Zach. "So here's the thing if you guys could get a shisha-" she starts but Corbyn interrupts her one of her pet peeves. "What is a shisha?" he asks clueless. "A hookah so back to what i was saying if you could get a hookah this would be the best Halloween party ever I'll also pay just when I'm allowed to keep it after the party" she smiles happily

"You smoke?" asks Daniel surprised. "Well just hookah it's like a arabic thing and as you should know I'm half Arabic" she announces sassily. "I didn't know" yell Zach and Jonah in sync. "I like that I'll try it too" yells Jonah with a sparkle in his eyes. "Seriously yeah sure but let's get to work before the first guest's arrive"

*******

Hours after decorating and dressing up the guests arrive. By now the house was full of people Amaya had never seen in her entire life. The boys too were surprised that so many people had showed up just for a party. "So Jonah do i still have the privilege to teach you how to smoke a hookah?" asked the brunette beauty curiously. "Yeah let's go" he smiles taking her hand and leading her to the small corner where he had placed the hookah with four pipes.

"Did you set this all up?" Amaya asks confused hours ago he was clueless. "Yes I did with the help of Corbyn and Google" he confessed grabbing the hookah which wasn't as easy as it looked. Amaya handed him a pipe.

"Never ever share this pipe for your own health issues" she warns him. She breaks up the shisha tobacco as she lays it into the clay bowl. Then she covered the bowl with a foil as she pokes small holes into it so the air could pass through. She places the clay bowl on the hookah stem. Jonah looks at her in amusement jolting down every move she made in his head. "Now do you have a lighter?" she asks waiting for his answer. Nodding he hands her the lighter and four to three coals. Amaya lights them up before she placed them on top of the clay bowl.

"And we're done wait for the coal to turn hotter I'll be back" she yells walking over to Esmeralda who was talking to Daniel and laughing hysterically at a joke he had said.
With an raised eyebrow she watched them take a shot of tequila. "Come on I've set it up and left a pipe for you" the skinny girl tempts holding onto her bestfriend's tan arm. "No thanks not now I'm having a great conversation with Daniel" excuses her friend honestly too honest for Amaya's liking. She pressed her lips together rolling her brown eyes. "What a shame" she mumbles walking back to Jonah who was waiting impatiently.

"Now take your pipe and inhale the watermelon flavored air I guess but please don't forget to exhale please" she chuckles watching him before doing it herself. Jonah obeys her commandments exhaling the toxic air. "Yeah it took me forever to know how to smoke a hookah" she pushes him back smiling slightly but stops when she sees Daniel singing on a table.

"This boy is clearly drunk" says Jonah chuckling at the blue eyed boy in the center of the room. Daniel was the highlight of the day and also the biggest fool at the party making both Jonah and Amaya cry because it was too funny to them. Minutes later they exchange looks in pity and stand up. "I'll take him into his room" she draggs his light body into his room wiping off the red makeup on his face.

She walks him into his bathroom and washes the remaining makeup off.
"I feel sick Amaya" he complains making the girl roll her eyes again. "You deserve this Idiot" she mumbled but screams as Daniel vomited on her velvet costume. In disgust she opens the window taking his shirt off taking two fresh t-shirts from his closet.

"Brush your teeth and put this shirt on" she shrieks trying to ignore the disgusting smell on her devil costume. "If you want you can take a shower" he suggests changing his pants. Rolling her eyes she grabs some of Daniel's clothes and walkes into the bathroom taking a long and warm shower. Minutes later she walks into his room seeing him sleeping on his bed.

"I'm sorry for vomiting on your beautiful dress Amaya" he whispers. "Whatever shit happens" she takes a seat on in his bed running her hand through his semi long brunette hair. "Esmeralda is really sweet Maya" "Yeah she's lovely get some rest Dan" she mumbles kissing his forehead. "Please stay here" he mumbles quietly. "I'm here don't worry" she mumbles laying close to him while he wraps his arms around her body.
