Songs of the Day: King For A Day- Pierce The Veil

Picture: Veronica's outfit

*Night of Emily's party*

~Veronica~

I took a quick shower and started to get ready. I wore a light pink tight belly tank that zipped in the back, with a flowy black skirt that stopped just above my knees. I put on my black studded ankle high heeled boots and walked over to the bathroom.

I curled my hair and did an eye makeup look with thick winged liner and applied false lashes. I added some nude lip gloss, and a few bracelets to cover up my bandages. I heard the door open from downstairs.

It wasn't my mother, because she left for America for a business trip the night I was in the hospital. "Ronnie, are you ready yet?" Oliver shouted from downstairs. "Just a minute!" I called back.

I quickly spritzed some perfume on me, grabbed my phone and my purse and headed downstairs. I saw Oliver and he looked good. He was wearing a black slightly distressed thick sweater, some black ripped jeans and black converse. I could perfectly see the flower on his neck.

He started at me with wide eyes. "What?" I said laughing. "You... you look beautiful." His face turned red, as did mine. I smiled and grabbed my jacket. It was nearing Christmas so it got colder. We both made our way to my car and as soon as I got in, I blasted the heat.

I started car and went to pick up Maya. She stopped being mad at me once the projects were over. After me and Oliver presented, I told her that we don't have to spend time together anymore and she got all happy. She started taking to Oliver more, and I tried my best to hide my jealousy.

We arrived at her house and I honked the horn. I told her beforehand that I was taking Oliver to this party since we live across the street from each other. She said that was fine and she was gonna spend time with him at the party. She walked out of her house and she looked amazing.

She dyed her hair from blue to jet black and she was wearing a black tight dress and bold red lipstick. "Wow, she looks good." I said. Oliver agreed. "Yeah, she does. But you look better." He whispered. I blushed but tried my best to hide it. It didn't work cause he laughed. I nudged him playfully. "Shut up loser."

Maya hopped in the back seat. "Hi Oliver." she said in her flirty voice. He turned around and waved at her before turning up the music. I guess I'm invisible or something. I pulled into Emily's driveway and parked the car.

We all stepped out into the cold but quickly hurried inside her house. The music was loud and it was crowded as fuck. The smell of alcohol and weed hit my nose and I breathed in the wonderful scent. Oliver turned around.

"Drinks ladies?" he shouted over the music. We nodded and made our way over to Emily who was talking to Matt. She jumped and hugged us both. "Yessss you guys made it!" she slurred. She was wasted. I laughed and Oliver came back with our drinks. I was planning on getting fucked up tonight.

I felt tapping on my shoulder. I turned around and it was Curtis. "Hey! You made it!" He said passing me a spliff. I graciously took it and inhaled the weed smoke deeply. I breathed it out and immediately felt relaxed. Oliver came behind me and took the spliff out of my hand.

I watched him smoke it and somehow, that made me more attracted to him. I don't know why but it just did. A song started playing and people started dancing. Maya asked Oliver if he wanted to dance and he said ok. Curtis then asked me and I said sure.

As I was dancing with Curtis, I kept sneaking glances at Oliver and Maya. Maya looked pretty drunk and she was grinding on Oliver. But he kept looking over at me and Curtis. Then the song ended and we all sat on a couch. A few others joined us with a bong and a couple of spliffs and we began a rotation.

I was pretty high and I was feeling good. I sat across from Oliver who kept staring at me. "What are you looking at Sykes?" I said giggling. He laughed and shrugged his shoulders. "Nothing special." I flipped him off and he stuck his tongue out at me. Maya noticed and sat really close next to Oliver. She placed her hand on his inner thigh.

He looked at her then back at her hand then back at her. "What are ya doing Maya?" he slurred. She laughed and moved her hand closer to his crotch. "C'mon Oli, let's get outta here." I felt heat rise to my cheeks and I tried to hide my jealousy. Oliver just shook his head and said "I'd rather stay down here." Anger flashed across her face and she shouted "What the hell is wrong with you Oliver?" It grew quiet and the eyes were now where we were.

"Um Maya, maybe this isn't the place.." whispered Hannah trying to calm her down. Maya pushed Hannah away and turned back to Oliver. "I love you! Why can't you just admit your feelings?" We all stared at her with wide eyes and open mouths. She was pissed drunk. Oliver stood up and glared down at her. She had he hands on her hips waiting for him to say something.

"You want me to admit my feelings?" he angrily shouted at her. Now everyone's attention was towards him. "Fine. I'm in love!" He shouted. Everyone gasped. Oh shit, what did he just say? He's in love? With who? Maya stared at him with wide eyes. So did I. "With who?" She said quietly.

"Veronica." He said turning towards me. "I knew it!" Emily shouted. I nearly dropped my drink and felt weak. Holy mother of God. He's in love with me? Why me? I felt tears well up in my eyes. I can't believe he just said that. Maya walked over to me and slapped me across my face. I fell to the floor.

"What the fuck?" I heard Oliver and Hannah shout at the same time. "You bitch!" Maya shouted. I got up and wiped the blood coming from my nose. I wasn't gonna fight Maya. I know I can kick her ass but I decided not to. "I can't believe you stole him from me! You fucking slut!" Then I snapped. I punched her straight in the face. She knows I hate being called a slut. "Fight!" Someone shouted. People had their phones out and they were recording.

Oliver came and held me back and Hannah went to Hold Maya back. "You fucking stole him from me!" she angrily shouted. "How the fuck can I steal him from you when he was never yours? It isn't my fault he doesn't like you!" I yelled back. "I never wanna see you again!" Maya shouted through tears. I broke free from Oliver's grasp and grabbed my jacket and purse. "You can find your own fucking way home." I said brushing past her and out the door. Oliver followed me. I wanted to go home. I lost my best friend over a boy. How pathetic is that?

I drove to my house and stormed inside. I slid to the floor, buried my face in my hands and cried. Why must my life be this difficult. I was lucky we were on Christmas break, so I don't have to see her. I was done with Maya's petty drama. I was done with it all. Then, Oliver came bursting through the door.

"Why can't you knock?" I said getting up and wiping my tears. I was a little more sober so I tried to watch my anger. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to start anything." He said. I looked at him and he looked like he was sorry. I scoffed. "I lost my best friend because of you." I said brushing past him. Then he got angry.

"Are you serious Veronica? You think this is my fault?" I took off my shoes and threw them in the corner. "Well it isn't my fault! And yes, I do think this is your fault. You didn't have to tell everyone that you're in love with me!" He looked like I slapped him and he inched closer to my face.

"YOU THINK I WANTED TO DO THAT? YOU THINK I WANT TO BE IN LOVE WITH A BITCH LIKE YOU?" I stepped closer to him, my hands on my hips.

"YOU THINK I WANT TO BE IN LOVE WITH A FUCKER LIKE YOU?" I spat. There was a pause.

Then he violently crashed his lips against mine. I wasted no time and I kissed him back. I jumped and wrapped my legs around him and he pushed me up against the wall. He reached around and unzipped my shirt, exposing my bare chest.

I grabbed the bottom of his shirt and ripped it off of him. He somehow carried me up the stairs and into my room. He dropped me on the bed and reconnected our lips. He then trailed kisses down my neck and instantly found my sweet spot. I bit my lip and lightly dug my nails into his back.

He took off his shoes and his pants and I could see his hard on through his boxers. He followed my gaze and smirked down at me. "You like what you see?"

"It's not anything I haven't seen before." I smirked back up at him. He hungrily attacked my lips again. I wrapped my arms around his neck and pulled him closer to my body.
