D R E A M

School had ended and I was putting my books into the locker. Kenzie was taking me to the mall in her car, so I hurried up and headed to where her grey van was parked. I opened the passenger door and sat next to her.

She started driving to the mall, which was like 15 minutes away. We talked about random stuff along the way and by the time we got there we were already starving, so we decided to go to McDonald's to buy some food. We ordered chicken nuggets, as always, and after we payed, we sat on the only free table left. I stuffed my mouth with food and Kenzie laughed at me.

"Fuck Shawn, chicken nuggets are the love of my life" I said half jokingly and she burst out laughing.

"Has anyone ever told you you are such a mood?" She pointed, and this time I was the one who couldn't stop laughing.

We continued eating, and after a while of being silly and laughing like crazy, we finished our food. We went to several stores and Kenzie chose a few dresses for me, so I ended up spending a lot of money on clothes, which I normally didn't do.

After 3 hours of being in the mall, we headed to my house. It was still a bit early, so we decided to watch some Netflix. I put on Teen Wolf cause it was Kenzie's favourite show.

After watching two and a half chapters, we started getting ready. Kenzie did my hair and makeup, since I was useless at anything that had to do with beauty.

When she finished, I picked one of the dresses I bought and put it on. It was a black off-the-shoulder mini dress. It was a bit short and definitely out of my comfort zone, but I didn't really mind it. I stared at myself in the mirror for a while. I actually felt cute in it.

The doorbell rang and I figured it was Shawn, so I went downstairs and opened the door. His eyes went wide as soon as he saw me. He scanned me from head to toe with his mouth slightly open, and I couldn't help but blush.

"Wow, uhm, you look gorgeous Dream" He stuttered, still staring at my dress. A huge smile formed on my face.

"A photo lasts longer" I said, mocking his words from earlier that day.

"You dare use my own spells against me, Potter?" He quoted and I couldn't help but laugh.

"Stop looking at her, you pervert" Kenzie joked while coming downstairs. I laughed and Shawn giggled nervously.

They both headed outside as I grabbed my jacket and my keys. I closed the door behind me and sat in the passenger seat of his black Jeep. He started the engine and turned up the radio.

We got to Brian's place in about 10 minutes. Shawn got out of the car and opened the door for me. As soon as I jumped off, the sound of really loud music filled my ears. We knocked the door and Brian opened it. He let us in and dragged Shawn to the kitchen, where all his other friends were. Kenzie and I talked and danced for a while, and when we got tired we went for some drinks.

"There you go" She handed me a red cup full of an unfamiliar substance.

"What is this?" I asked, taking a sip of it. It tasted horribly, I really didn't like it.

"C'mon Dream, it's just beer" She answered and took a sip of it too. I hesitated a little but I kept drinking it, it wasn't that big of a deal anyway.

"See? It's not that bad" Kenzie said as she filled her cup again. I handed her mine so she could do the same.

Two more cups and I got used to the taste. Three more cups and my head was spinning a little. Two more and my shyness went away.

Kenzie and I decided to play beer pong with some random guys, which made it even worse. Now I didn't even know what I was doing. My favourite song started playing and we both started dancing. Suddenly I felt someone's hands on my waist. I turned around and saw a familiar face. It was... Brian? What the- He'd never even liked me. Ever since we met in 7th grade he's been a complete jerk. So why was he interested in me now?

Oh, I get it now. It must have been my dress. Guys should understand that when a girl wears a short dress, it doesn't mean she wants to be treated as a hoe. Brian had always been that type of guy, the one who likes to mess around with girls and dump them the next day. He loves one night stands. And I'm definitely not gonna be one of those.

"Fuck off Brian" I said annoyed. He just rolled his eyes and walked away. I may be drunk but I'm not stupid. Plus he's one of Shawn's friends so that was definitely not an option.

When I turned around Kenzie was gone. I started searching for her but she was nowhere to be found. I went upstairs and shouted her name. The music was very loud so she probably didn't even hear me. I was about to leave when I noticed the bathroom door was slightly open. I saw her light brown hair, she was throwing up.

"That's so damn gross" I said jokingly, as I grabbed one of the black scrunchies I had on my wrist and tied her hair in a bun "Are you okay?"

"Yeah, yeah" She stood up and looked at herself in the mirror "I look like crap" She said laughing.

"And you smell even worse" I joked, and this time we both started laughing.

"C'mon, let's go downstairs" She took my hand and dragged me to the stairs.

I was still really drunk, so I would be lying if I said I didn't almost die in the process, but somehow we managed to get downstairs.

Honestly, I wish we hadn't, because the first thing I saw was Shawn and Hailey sitting on a couch, making out. She was sitting on his lap, his hands wrapped around her waist and hers were around his neck. My heart froze. Kenzie must've noticed too, because she started looking at me with worried eyes.

"Don't pay attention to them Dream" I heard Kenzie say, but it wasn't that easy. I couldn't just brush it off.

I noticed Brian and his friends were standing beside them and an idea sparked in my mind. I knew I was going to regret it, but I didn't even care anymore.

I walked towards Brian and patted his shoulder in order to get his attention. When he turned around, I grabbed the sides of his face and pressed my lips onto his. I caught him a little off guard, but he kissed me back and placed his hands on my waist. His lips were soft but I still didn't like it. I kept going anyway. The kiss kept deepening and he tightened his grip. I felt his hands move from my waist to my butt, which made me feel a bit uncomfortable. Then I heard Shawn's voice. I turned around and my eyes met his.

"What the hell do you think you're doing?"

If looks could kill, I'd be dead by now.
