An angels lover

~The party~

Alani

I feel the music beat before I hear the actual song playing. Witch isn't a great song.

We walk in hand in hand and heads turn to watch us walk in. I tighten my grip a little but I don't think Cultun pays attention. He walks right through the crowd with me behind him.

I soon realize where we're going and we're going to the guys football team. When we're close enough I see every guy has a girl in his arms.

Cultun does the guy handshake thing with his free hand to all the guys there. He then sits on the sofa and leaves me standing. "Sit down" he says tapping his lap.

"No" I shake my head "move up"

He looks over at the guys on the sofa "You heard the lady move up" they all scoot leaving space for me. I sit down and Cultun puts his arms around my neck. I lace our finger together.

"Confidence" Cultun whispers in my ear. I look up at him and he stares down.

I look around absorbing the surrounding. I see a couple go up the stairs drunk out of their minds. I watch some kids play beer pong, guys versus girls. I see perfume girl in a crowd of guys laughing and enjoying herself.

Samantha and I lock eyes. She stares at me with hate sown in the the back of her eyes. She whispers something to Jones and Jones passes it on, it's like watching dominos fall.

I think about burning Samantha's hair, maybe she'll look good with short hair. Or not. "Stop it" I hear Cultun whisper in my ear "I can practically smell the hate"

I look away form Samantha. "She started it" I murmur.

"As always"

"I need the toilet" I say dropping Cultun's hand.

"Don't..." he holds me down by my wait, two guys form the football team look our way but instantly look away "go frying brains now"

"Whatever" I get up and leave. I make my way to the bathroom which is up stairs. It's way more quiet up here, giving me time to think. I pee then wash my hands. I smile in the mirror showing my white teeth, my smile drops a bit to fast not knowing why.

I walk out the toilet and start making my way back.
"You know..." a voice say scaring me half to death. I turn to see it's perfume girl "your resting bitch face makes it awfully hard for people to approach you" she continues.

I stare at her still in shock "My friends, think your pretty but they'll never tell you. Why? You may ask"

"I could care less" I say turning to leave.

"Because your always frowning. I mean you might not actually be frowning but it sure looks like it" she come up to me and smiles "I'm Lilac, like the colour"

"Alani" I say.
Lilac leads the way down the stairs and I follow her. She goes into the kitchen and pours something in her cup that's not even empty.

"Alani, you are very beautiful. Your freckles complements you brown chestnut eyes. You face is adorable with your white smile...you know when you do smile" she says.

"Thanks" I look across the room to Cultun. People say I'm beautiful, I see it. But apparently Cultun doesn't.

"Imma go fine my people" she slurs.

"You mean find your friends?" 

"Yeah that too" she giggles and walks away.
I make my way back to the sofa where Cultun's sitting. My place is still there so I sit, Cultun puts his arms around me like he did before. I lay my head on his shoulder listening the their conversations.

"Tired?" I hear Cultun say.
I nod.
"I know how to wake you up, but everything 2 too 3 minutes someone's eyes shift at us"
A smile creeps on my face and a light pink rushes to my cheeks.

Cultun practically throws me on my bed making me shriek. "What a gentleman" I say sarcastically.

He gets on top of me and hugs me. He takes out my bobble form my hair and massages my hair

"If you do that I'll fall asleep" I hug his chest.

"Good night then" I feel his lips on my forehead before I drift of.
