The Ugly Bet

Chapter 5 - Caught

Ashley

I quickly changed into tight leather pants and
white layered tube top. Afraid of really smelling like sushi, I changed my boots into heels and my black jacket to a brown one. And for a cuter look I wore a brown felt flat cap. "Bye Ma!" I said loudly when I passed her door and rushed to get into my red Jaguar. Honi-Honi is just 20 minutes drive and even shorter if there's no traffic and if I drive faster but not exceeding the speed limit. Surely, they will be surprised to see me. When I arrived at the parking space, there were several cars parked there. I recognized Greg's red Audi, Sean's beloved yellow Hummer Jeep, and Keith's BMW7 series. I didn't see Tracy's or Pamela's car. Maybe they've gone home.

I checked myself in my mirror first before going out. I have my phone slipped inside my pocket and when I entered the place, there's not so much crowd. I instantly knew where they are so I headed for the stairs and just to my surprise, there on the top of the stairs are Dustin and Tracy, kissing, or practically saying, making out.

This isn't real... this isn't real...

Tracy is my bestfriend.
Dustin is my sweetheart.
They won't do this behind my back.

It's not real.

It can't be real.

I closed my eyes and tried all my will to calm myself. I even believe that it was just an imagination. I shook my head gently, wishing that it wasn't real. But it is... the sound if Tracy's moan of pleasure is clearly reaching my ears. I opened my eyes and it seems like the two were not gonna part and intend to do "that" there on the stairway, so with so much vanity, contempt and all, I wickedly climbed the stairs and when they were already infront of me, I took a deep breath, plastered an ever sweet smile and with a great voice, said, "Excuse me, can you continue making out somewhere indecent place, coz you're actually on my way." and the reaction on both of their faces was priceless.

Dustin

I didn't know how it happened but it did happen. Ashley saw Tracy and I kissing on the top of the stairs. And even if she wears the sweetest smiles in the whole wide world that night when she told us to move out of her way, the hate and contempt in her eyes is evident in her voice.

I got drunk, just a little, unlike Keith who was totally wasted even before Ashley came. Greg's got a bit drunk and naughty just like Sean and Pamy. The rest of the girls and the jocks, I didn't give a damn to care about.

It's not me, really. It was Tracy who pulled me and kissed me when I was about to go to the men's room downstairs.

And I'm just a gorgeous, irresistible guy who can be so generous to hot chics like Tracy too.

I glared at Greg and Ashley who are actually hugging one another. If it's not now, I'll like their closeness but Greg's almost drunk and naughty and Ashley's already tipsy. When I tried to stop her a while ago from getting so much alcohol, she shoved my hands and death-glared on me.

I know that Ashley's curfew is 12am so by eleven and a half I wanted us all to go home. The rest agreed, and just as Tracy pleaded, I had to drive her home. I checked Pamela and Sean will drive her home, along with Keith who is already snoring at the back of the jeep. On the other hand, Ashley drops drunken Greg to his house since it's on the way back to her house.

I wish I could follow Ashley's car to watch them and stop them if anything unnecessary is to happen. Greg is my bestfriend. Ashley is my 'childhood sweetheart'. I can't bear if the two sticks together and gets attracted with one another.

It felt like I'm gonna die if I wouldn't follow them so I did. And I saw how Greg kissed her while she was helping him walk to his door, just the same time that Tracy bit my ear and kissed my jaw. I was mad and I needed to take this anger out so I pulled my car back and headed to Tracy's place.
