Circles (Harry Styles)

Chapter 4

"Hi! I'm Paisley!" says the overly-excited brunette. She's wearing a black leather dress that might as well be made out of spandex it's so tight. At least I think it's a dress...a very short one.

"Adele," I say and give a small wave.

"Adele like the singer?"

"No, my full name is Adelaina so it's just short like 'add-uh-lay'."

"Oh my gosh that's so pretty!"

"Thanks," I laugh.

"So go ahead and get changed. We can walk over together."

I am very confused and somewhat anxious about her statement.

"What?"

"The first rush party, Adele! It's the joint fraternity party at the Zeta house. It's just the elite Greeks that are allowed. Just Alpha Kappa and Kappa Delta. Aren't you just so excited?! Gosh I would do just about anything to get into this sorority."

"But it's Monday night. Aren't there usually just parties on the weekends?"

Apparently, that assumption was wrong. There was a fray party about every day, but other than the first rush party, the joint parties were only on the weekends.

"Uh, Paisley? I don't really know anyone who's going to be there."

"So what? It's the second biggest party of the year and it has the biggest alcohol supply on campus! Not to mention the weed. You have to go! And some people said you were with Dave Weston. He's super hot and he practically runs this party!"

"I just have a class with Dave. I've only known him for a week. And I can't drink. I'm only 17."

She laughed.

"Everyone I've talked to said you were preaching your delinquency. Come on I'm not that dumb. Here's a dress you can borrow."

Well then, I guess Adele is a sorority whore. I've never personified that before, but at this point, my reputation has gotten around enough to seal the deal.

I look at the dress she gave me. It's glittery all over and very bright red. Paisley is the same height as me, but a bit thinner.

"So Adele, any guys you're interested in?" she asks as she does her hair.

"No, not really. You?"

"Nah, I don't really do relationships. Too clingy and possessive. As for you though, you can have any guy you want. With an outfit like that, I've already heard of some jealous pledges. Get some tonight girl! So just so I know, what are your rules?"

I am pleased that some other pledges are jealous because hopefully that means that the sisters like me,but they might also target me. 

This dress could not get any shorter without flashing the whole world, but I guess it's normal attire for a whore.

"Do you have any dresses a little longer?"

"Adele! That's the longest one I have seen from the girls getting ready! Besides, your tits look huge and your ass looks perfect!"

I like the fact that I at least look the part. I can do whore makeup. I went through a theater phase. Now to act the part. I guess I should just act like Paisley then?

"So," she said, "what are your rules, just to clarify?" she asks again.

"Rules for what?" I ask.

"The 3 D's silly! Drinks, drugs, dicks."

Play it careful. Protect your reputation. At least Dave will think I'm a badass. Hopefully I can pull it off.

"Well, what are yours?"

"Usually, about 14 shots is when I start feeling sick. That's the hard stuff though. I haven't found a beer limit yet. I get high pretty easily, like after a few big hits..."

WHAT.THE.FUCK.

"...and as far as dicks, I've never done more than 4 guys in a night but I don't really have a limit. And I'm totally open to 3ways. I just fuck and duck out of there, you know, no strings attached. You?"

Well I can't tell the truth. I can't lie either though! I'll just have a few drinks and I can lie about the weed. And I can prevent the sex.

"Yeah like 10 shots and a few hits. I've only had 2 guys in one night but it's whatever." Lie. Lie. Lie.

"Well I'll let you know if a 3-way opportunity comes up," she winks.

"Yeah for sure," I laugh nervously.

I don't want to ask my next question because it sounds rude, but she sounds like the girl who would be thrilled to tell me all about her past life.

"If you don't mind me asking-"

"Adele! I'm an open book!"

"Okay, um, anyway, how did you build up your alcohol tolerance like that?" I might need to know in the future anyway if this is me for the next four years...

"I started when I was 14.  I went to a lot of parties and I wanted to fit in with the seniors there so I did it and I liked it.  And as for the fucking, you just kind of get used to it.  Guys slipped stuff in my drinks to get me in bed back in high school, and once you've had sex, you never go back to NOT having sex, so I just went with whoever. Why do you ask?"

"I want to build up my own so we can always party together!" That was easier than I thought.  Maybe I will actually be able to fabricate being a whore for four years.

"Yay! First guy who sees me, I'm taking you with us," she says as she walks into the bathroom.

Can't wait. I think to myself.
