We spent about 2 and a half hours studying and Lapis eventually convinced me to skip today's classes with her - I swear to god this girl is pure torture. I finally decided that now was a good time to ask her about the party. I looked up from my text book and hers was already closed, and she sat on the desk scrolling through her phone. Well, it's now or never.

"Hey Lapis..." "Hm." "So uh...my friends invited to me to a party and I, uh, don't really wanna go alone, and I was wondering if you'd wanna g-go with m-me?" I asked, twiddling my fingers. She looked at me for a moment, then laid on her back with a loud groan. "I dunno...parties aren't really my thing...the last time I went to a party things didn't go very well..." she said with distress in her voice, and I decided not to further question it.

"Come on, you can't let one bad experience ruin parties for you. It'll be fuuun..." I said, standing up from my spinny chair. "It was more than one..." she muttered, looking to the side with squinty eyes. "Please?" I begged. "Who wants to go to some obnoxious gathering with a bunch of drunk-ass strangers dancing to full-blast punk rock music? Not to mention all of the pranks, overly sexual games and barf." Lapis said, sitting up and putting her phone in her shirt.

"You don't find any of that fun?" I asked, raising an eyebrow. "Hey...I like my fair share of drinking, listening to music, and practical jokes...but college parties can get outta hand sometimes...I'd rather have a blunt and keep myself company..." she explained, putting her hands behind her head. She seems so laid back about everything.

"Yeah...I understand..." I said sorrowfully, looking down at the floor. There was a few moments of silence until Lapis huffed. "Fine, I'll go to your dumb party..." she groaned. "But if I get drugged and end up missing all my classes tomorrow, it's gonna be your ass I'm after..." she said, pointing a finger in my face. I nodded quickly, trying not to blush from the unintentional innuendo she made. She seemed to not notice it, and walked into the bathroom.

....

7:30 PM

"Lapis, you ready?" I asked, knocking on the bathroom door. "Hold your friggin horses, Peri. I'll be right out." she said, and about 2 minutes later, she came out. She was wearing a black crop-top that read 'SLUNT' on it in bold grey letters, and she had dark blue ripped skinny jeans on with a silver chain hanging from the pocket. She also had an open blue lettermans jacket draping over her shoulders - it looked like it belonged to one of the football player guys here. "K let's bounce..." she said, walking toward the front door.

I was wearing my green flannel with a Pyrrha Nikos black t-shirt underneath. I also had dark grey skinny jeans and made sure my hair was gelled in that perfect triangular shape. I put in my favorite alien gages, and grabbed my phone and car keys as we walked out the front door. "Amethyst said that her friend Steven's dad wasn't home, so they're having the party at his little beach house a few blocks down." I explained as we walked to my car.

"Nice ride..." Lapis said, raising an eyebrow. "Heh, thanks." I said, feeling heat rush to my cheeks once again. I turned my head down and speed-walked to the vehicle, making sure she didn't notice anything. I hopped in the driver's seat as Lapis sat beside me in the passenger's. I turned the key in the ignition and the car started with a purr.

As I put the car in reverse, Lapis turned her head and looked at me with a small smile. I stared back at her, blushing. I snapped out of my trance once I heard a 'CLUNK' sound behind me. "WAHG!!! WHAT WAS THAT?!" I screeched, shooting my head backwards to see what made that startling sound. "You backed up into a garbage can." Lapis deadpanned, simply looking in the sideview mirror of her side. "Uh...whoops..." I muttered. "I was just gonna ask you if I could use your aux cord...." she snorted, looking at me like I was stupid - which I was.
