Poisonous Love

Aria Alvarez

I am quite curious about him. He doesn't like certain things. To an extent where it's not normal. If you're not a big fan of red you could simply ignore the color, but getting furious over it? These are things I want to ask him about. But I'm not supposed to have my head somewhere where it's not supposed to be. This is fake.

I stood outside Jason's house, waiting for him. I couldn't possibly enter the house without my boyfriend. A few people have walked past me asking if we came together. And to each of them, I gave the same answer 'He forgot something in the car.'

"I was eager to see your outfit, and you did not disappoint my love." I turned around to see Alonzo in a black compression shirt, with black sweatpants and a black fanny pack to top off his whole black fit. "And you're dressed like a...dealer?"

"Aria, it's a party. This is my business market." He placed his hand on my back and slightly pushed me inside with him.

The place was filled with loud speakers blasting music. Bottles clicking. And the sound of people talking and cheering. Alonzo and I safely made it into the main room. Where we were invited by Jaydon.

"Princetons golden couple, after me and Anissa of course." Chuckled Jaydon as everyone else forced a chuckle to give him the satisfaction he wanted.

"You know, it's not really fair to Anissa if you're comparing her to the Princetons princess. And between you and me...well, I don't want to ruin your ego by pointing out the obvious." This time the room was filled with a couple of silent 'o's'. And one scoff by who I assumed was Anissa.

"Sit down guys, we're playing truth or dare." Alonzo sat on the seat directly next to where we were standing. He patted his hand on his lap. I ignored his gesture and tried sitting next to him when he pulled me making me forcefully land on his lap.

"Why do you never listen, Aria?" He whispered into my ear. "Because you're wrong most of the time." I leaned back and whispered.

"Alright, Jay truth or dare?" a guy with blonde dyed locs spoke. "Definitely dare, I'm no pussy." The guy stood up acting all strong, forcing me to roll my eyes. "Go make a champagne fountain in the kitchen, and drink every single one of the glasses." without wasting another second he left out the door we came in from, making his way to the kitchen. Poor guy. He'll probably vomit, I saw a guy pour vodka in the champagne bottle on my way in.

The girl with honey-brown hair spoke up "Jason truth or dare?"

Jason chose to dare. "Make out with the prettiest girl in the room." He got up from his seat, leaving everyone in shock because he left where his girlfriend was sitting. As his girlfriend, Anissa, looked shocked, and hurt, he walked over to the girl who gave him the dare and began making out with her, looking straight at me.

At the uncomfortable sight, I started moving around trying to get comfortable. Suddenly Alonzo made his grip around my waist tighter "Aria, stop moving, you're not helping." I sat frozen realizing what he meant. And silently continued to stare at the ground until my name was called. "Truth or dare?"

"Dare." Fuck, I was trying to say truth why did dare come out instead.

"Make out with your boyfriend." What. No, this goes against our number 1 rule. No kissing.

I froze, completely lost, not knowing what to do.

"She doesn't like public affection." Spoke Alonzo pulling me back further onto his lap.

"Why bother playing truth or dare, if you're a pussy." Anissa spoke rolling her eyes, making everyone else in the room let out a sarcastic chuckle.

"Fuck it." I look back at Alonzo trying to stop him before he turns my body around and crashes his lips onto mine. The moment his lips connected with mine, a fierce blast of heat ran through my body, firing a delicious, burning tingle in my body. With me unable to think, or even breathe I do something unexpected from me and kiss back. When I felt one of his hands trail down my arm and settle on my hip, I almost lost it.

"We can't." I breath.

"I know." He groans as I feel his lips forming a smile against mine. I slightly moaned into his mouth when I felt the very tip of his tongue trace against my bottom lip. I hear the loud cheers in the background before I set back into my right mind.

This list of things not to do is starting to become a check-off list. And I haven't regretted a single check-off.
