mackenzie grabbed the drinks, heading towards the group of teens in her backyard. "dirty spin the bottle?" hayden suggested, and they agreed. it was a pretty medium sized group of 17 teens.
"lauren you gonna play?" kenzie asked, sitting by hayden and crossing her legs.
"nah, just gonna sit this one out." she said, holding up her baby monitor. "i'll play next round." kenzie sighed, then grabbed the empty vodka bottle and placed it in the middle. lauren grabbed the cards, "whomever this lands on has to kiss the person to their right's neck." kenzie spun the bottle and it landed on johnny.
johnny scoffed, knowing kenzie was on his right. she leaned her neck, so he'd have access, then he just kissed her neck, for a few seconds before pulling away. he then spun the bottle and it landed on annie. "what do i do?" she asked.
lauren flipped a card, "take off your shirt." she told her.
"ok." annie shrugged, then took off her crop top, revealing her lacy bralet. "next." annie sighed, spinning the bottle and it landed on anna.
"come on lauren, these dares are too easy." hayden smirked.
"fine, ok um. anna, make out with the person to your left. so that will be—johnny." lauren said, then anna turned to look at johnny, who was just looking at hayden, knowing he somehow set this up. "i'm sorry for you." lauren whispered to anna, earning a kick in the leg from johnny.
"how long?" anna asked, then gulped.
"eh a make out is like 5 minutes?" lauren averaged, then anna and johnny leaned in and started kissing. it was stiff at first but it became more passionate. johnny held her chin the whole time, and anna made her way towards his hair. "and time." lauren said, then they pulled apart, their lips glossy and red and johnny's now tasted like cherry lip gloss.
johnny just smirked at her and anna rolled her eyes. then they continued the game. let's just say someone ended up diving butt naked into kenzie's pool and someone might've been given a blow job in the backseat of someone's car. that part wasn't a dare.
"you're not so bad cathcart." johnny said, leaning into a kiss.
anna slapped his cheek, "i don't need a man to validate me." she then got out of the car, walking towards her car and leaving.

"so?" hayden asked johnny, as they met up at practice.
"so what?" johnny asked, even though he knew what hayden was talking about.
"anna! is she?-" hayden hinted at.
"she's great. she's sassy, fun, good but," johnny pauses.
"don't you say-"
"i miss kenzie." johnny sighed.
"and you said it." hayden groaned, then saw kenzie walking towards them on the field. "sup kenz." he kissed her cheek, greeting her.
"hey guys." then hayden felt the need to leave.
"talk. bye!" hayden ran away, legit like a baby.
"john-"
"can we just start this thing again?" johnny asked, pulling her behind the bleachers.
"you said-"
"i know what i said kenz, but come on." he whispered the end into her ear, as his hands made their way to her ass.
giving it a squeeze, he kissed her neck, hitting the perfect spot, "ok, fine." she sighed, "i would've said yes when you first brought it up but you just kept talking."
across campus, annie was walking with anna towards a group of girls. "oh hey annie!" one of the girls, lily, exclaimed.
"hey-" but then everyone went silent and looked towards the parking lot. the perfectionists were walking out of the field. "what's going on?"
"it's them." lily said, as if it was common sense.
"what's so important about them?" the group gasped at anna's question.
"they're like a cult." lily started, then looked at annie and anna, "every party or restaurant—anywhere, they always get cherry coke. like who actually likes cherry coke that much?"
"i do-"
"shut up caitlin!" lily interrupted, "theyre like the plastics, except they aren't bitchy. they're just powerful in some way. it's just always been like that really."
anna and annie were still confused, maybe because they were new? who knows.

"another party mackenzie?" melissa asked tiredly, pouring herself the third cup of coffee today.
"another coffee?" mackenzie mocked back, then sat on the marble counter, "it's not even a party. it's hayden, johnny, plus the newbies, the ones who are still alive," she joked, but melissa glared, "what?" melissa just shook her head, "and some others. all you need to do is bring me the booze." mackenzie demanded, giving her mother the keys to her mother's tesla.
"no, i brought it once, only for your birthday. no more." melissa said, knowing it was the motherly thing to do.
"fine, but i do have a certain tape from 2007 of you and my dad-"
"vodka and-?"
mackenzie smirked, "here's the list." then dropped the keys into her mother's hand and skipped away. it was 6 pm, and mackenzie barley got home. since the tests were slowing down, mackenzie didn't have an urge to study like a maniac. she went on her mac book, finished up homework, then googled who invented the first pb&j and went to shower before the others came.
she washed herself, then stepped out, and grabbed her towel. "you could've waited outside."
johnny smirked, getting off of his phones and off of the counter. "it's more fun like this." he put his hand under her chin, lifting it and kissing her. he was just a few inches taller, not too much taller. "oh and hayden's here. he's chatting with your mom."
"hurry up!" they heard hayden yell, making them let out a laugh, and mackenzie got ready.
she put on a button up shirt, one she borrowed from johnny, and left most of the buttons on the top unbuttoned, not revealing everything but just her chest. she put on black shorts, tucking the shirt in and finished off with a gucci belt.
she just dried her hair, and then parted it and did her makeup. it took her just a few minutes since she put in a bit of concealer, then mascara, some highlight, filled in her brows, then finished off with some lip gloss. "don't you need like boob tape?" johnny asked, leaning against the door frame as he admired kenzie.
mackenzie scoffed, looking at him. "why? because if i move too much someone can see my whole boob?" she chuckled.
"yes." he said back, oblivious of her somewhat of a joke.
"fine, but only because some of the football players are coming." she rolled her eyes, and then once she finished, johnny—being the true gentleman he was— helped her out on her heels.
