*Forever December*

*Chapter 2*

"Put this on," Roxin smirked, pushing a purple spandex dress into my arms(that happened to be April's.) I narrowed my eyes and shoved my nose into the air.

"I'm not wearing that!" I pushed the dress away, throwing myself down on my bed. Roxin jumped onto the bed and held me down with a cheeky grin.

"Wear it, or I'll kiss you!" I squealed and tried to tug my arm away, laughing as he moved his face closer to me. "Come on, Turk, I don't have all day here."

"Okay, okay!" I groaned and pushed Roxin off of me, gathering the dress and heading towards my bathroom. I slid the thing over my head and tugged it down. The dress didn't reach my knees, but the middle of my thigh. My dad wouldn't be happy about this. I would have to find a way to sneak out without him seeing the dress.

I came out after coating my face with my mom's make-up. I thought I did a good job, until April came upstairs. "What the hell did you do to your fucking face, sis?" I blushed as my sister strung her arm around me and pulled me back into the bathroom.

"Come on, little vampire," I rolled my eyes and slipped into my sister's car. She was driving us to the party and coming back at one. Wonderful way to make friends. Sixteen and I had to be driven everywhere just because I was a reckless driver and Roxin was too blonde! Not fair!

"Be out here waiting for me at ten, Dee-Dee," April yelled after me as I grasped Roxin's hand and tugged him towards the house. He snorted and threw his arm around me. I shrugged it off.

"Stop it. You're making my dress ride-" I was cut off by a loud wolf whistle.

"Looking good!" It was all I heard before a hand grasped onto my backside and squeezed. I yelped and swung around, holding my arm out so that I hit the grabber in the face. He groaned and held his eye. "Damn, shorty. That hurt!"

Roxin slung his fingers around mine and tugged me in the other direction, but I was frozen. Though he'd pinched my bum, the guy in front of me was unique looking. He had bright blue eyes, his hair a slick black. I smiled a bit before Roxin tugged again. "Stop it, Blondie," I mumbled.

"Dee, come on. These guys are trouble." I let out a sigh and allowed my friend to pull me away from the cute boy. I glanced back once. Twice. Three times before we disappeared through the door of the house.

"Who's party is this?" I asked, looking around at all the people. The smell of alcohol struck my nose repeatedly. Many of the teenagers had glasses full of different things. I soon found out that the only option was rigged punch or water. I took the safe option of water, while Roxin took the punch.

"Parker Hendricks'." I raised an eyebrow slowly. And how did you get invited to this? I wondered to myself.

"I know, I know. Columbia invited me." Roxin's cheeks seemed to heat. I grinned, throwing my arms around his neck playfully.

"Is my best friend crushing on Columbia?" I wiggled my eyebrows and planted a kiss on the boy's cheek before spinning around to see the girl I'd just been talking about sitting in a chair with a few of her friends. I smiled. "Go on, go talk to her. I'll be fine!" I pushed Roxin towards Columbia, watching his cheeks go red.

They talked for a while, then danced. I giggled, sipping at my water slowly before a tall figure slipped in front of me. I choked from surprise, stepping back a bit before looking up at the boy. It was the same boy that I'd seen outside, though it had been dark, I knew that face anywhere.

His eye was turning black from my fist. I set my drink down and bit my lip. "You never said sorry for punching me, slick," he let a smile slide onto his pale face.

"And you didn't apologize for putting your hand on my ass, but I didn't complain now did I?" The boy smirked and put his hand on the side of the wall, where I was standing.

"You're a bad one, aren't you? How come I haven't seen you around?" He moved a bit closer to me, so our faces were inches away.

"Probably because you're IQ is too low to get into AP classes," I smiled.

The boy laughed and pulled me against him. I pressed my hands to his chest, trying to push him away. "You're right. But it just might be high enough to score with you," he smirked. I raised an eyebrow and brought my knee up close to my destination.

"Are you sure about that?" He nodded.

I smirked and threw my knee right between his legs. He groaned and fell to the ground, dropping his drink. "Stupid drunk son-of-a-bitch." I mumbled, kicking him once before tugging my dress down and leaning back against the wall. I watched him squirm and groan for a moment before Roxin came back over.

"Damn, Dee, what'd you do to him?" He looked down at the boy.

"Taught him to keep his hands to himself. I don't even know the dick and he thinks he can touch my ass?" I scoffed, "typical jock."

Roxin cursed, "that's Parker, damn it! You're gonna get us kicked out!" I looked down at the handsome boy and smiled.

"He got what he deserved. How's it going with Columbia?" Roxin's cheeks turned dark red as he glanced back over at the girl, who was staring in our direction. I grinned and hugged my best friend tightly. "You go boy! When's the date?" I gave Columbia a little wave, but she seemed to be a little too busy sticking her nose in the air to wave back. "Bitch," I mumbled.

"Tomorrow night. I'm taking her out." I squealed and planted a kiss on Roxin's cheek before pushing him back towards Columbia.

"Go on!" He nodded and disappeared into the crowd.

Parker had gotten up and was massaging his crotch, where I'd hit him. He grunted and looked at me. "That fucking hurt. Come here you," he grabbed me by the arm and pulled me towards him. I made an attempt to bite him, which didn't really work. He pushed me against the wall, grinning from ear to ear. "Come on, are you afraid?"

"You don't scare me, Parker," I whispered as he pressed his forehead to mine. I shivered as his hands began to touch either side of my waist.

"I don't? I should," he pressed me rougher against the wall before lowering his face and smacking his lips over mine. As much as I didn't want to pull away, I tried, and he held be in place. I smacked at his chest, and his hands pinned my arms as our kiss went on. My breathing went quicker as I stopped struggling and melted into the kiss.

Parker pulled back and looked down at me. "You're a good kisser, slick. Why don't you come to my house tomorrow for a date, hmm?" I considered it for a moment. This guy that I'd kicked in the nuts, bit, and punched in the face, wanted to go out with me. Okay!

"Sure...What t-" I was cut off by his lips meeting mine once more. I could taste the alcohol in his breath, and the sweet taste of cherry behind it. I let out a small moan as his hands traveled my hips.

"Parker..." I whispered as his lips trailed down my neck. I didn't mind a hickey or two, it was just another thing to show off to April. I'd get a high-five for that.

"What's your name, slick?" He whispered into my ear as he nipped at the lobe.

"December...B..But you can call me Dee."

"All right then, Dee. I'll see you tomorrow night." And he left with that.
