Polynatural-Book 1

Chapter 35

I take one last good look in the mirror before I depart. It's the night of the big spring bash. I'm not as excited as everyone else, it's just a party. But to everyone else, it's more than that. It's Tiffany's party. Everyone practically sucked up to her, just so they could get an invite to it. Pathetic, if you ask me. I predict that it's going to be like any other teen party, alcohol, drugs, and hooking up. There really isn't that much to look forward to. I'm not even quite sure why I even agreed to come. The Boss said it'd be good for me since I've never been to a teen party. All my life, the society and missions are what I've done and known. So I guess this would be a great experience, but I doubt I would have much fun. The alcohol, drugged, and sex craving guys there won't appeal to me. I'd rather be back on my missions, escaping an inch from being blown to smithereens. Now that's what I call excitement and fun. I guess I'm a danger seeker. It's all fun to me until someone I care about gets dragged into the equation...Well my probation is over. Good thing too, I am ready to be back. I think I need to get away from everything here. Parker especially. Speaking about Parker...I wonder if he will be there tonight.

"Bye Boss, I'm leaving." I yell to him.

"Have fun!" He yells enthusiastically back.

"I'll try..."

AT THE PARTY

"Heyy Guuurrll," Tiffany slurs out as she throws a welcoming arm around me, " Here, have a drink." She hands me a cup filled with a blue liquid inside. It's obviously not just blueberry punch.

"What is it?" I dumbly ask.

"Don't ask, just drink it."

I take a sip and make a disgusted face. Vodka.

Tiffany smiles cheekily at my reaction. "Have funnn" And with that she walks into a dancing crowd.

I stand there drinking the drink and looking around. Tiffany's house is huge. It there weren't so many drunk teenagers around, it would look like an A-list celebrity party. There is a pool with florescent lights in it, making it shine a neon color. In the corner the DJ was smoking a blunt and pumping up the tunes. Everyone seems to be having a great time.

"Come on," says one of the girls from The Elite. She grabs my hand and pulls me onto the dance floor.

I shake my head and say, " I can't dance. I don't know how..."

She merely laughs and tips my drink into my mouth, making me chug it all.

"How do you feel now?" She smirked.

"Um, the same?"

"Haha. Answer me again in a few." She grabs my hand and drags me onto the dance floor.

I stand in front of her, following suit in her moves, trying to pull off that I know what I'm doing, and that I am having fun. From behind me a guy puts his arms around my hips and moves his body closer. I jump a little, not sure what he's doing. The Elite girl merely smiles an encouraging smile as a guy comes behind her and does the same. With the beat of the song I move my hips.

"I'm Cody" he speaks seductively in my ear. His voice sounds like smooth velvet, soothing my ear, but at the same time maintaining a masculine and alluring enticement.

"Lacey," I reply with a devilish smile.

"Alright everyone, grab a partner because I got a couple of slow ones for yall!" yells the DJ.

I turn to face Cody, but he suddenly leaves my side. Replacing him is Brody. He offers me his hand.

"Can I have the pleasure of dancing with you?"
