Behind The Screen

When It All Happened

I was with Casey Beckingham, my greatest friend of all time. She can be bitchy, snotty, pushy, slutly, and really annoying but who else is going to love her? She didn’t give two shucks about what people said about her, she just brushed it off like it was lint on her jeans. The guys in our school adore her, drooled over her, even praised her sometimes. She didn’t care, she would lead them on to wear he pulled out the condom and she would hop off his lap so fast he was still unwrapping the condom. Then there was Janice Haven or what the school and herself called her Jc. She was the type of girl who could be so kind and caring but if you talked wrong about anything that she cared about she would snap. She also didn’t care what people thought of her, except for the boys. She was always asking if some random guy though her butt was too big. She was amazing once you knew her but you won’t cause she’s mine and Casey’s, so ha. Then was me. I mean there isn’t much to say. I’m not pretty, my hair is like bouncing noodles, I’m really short, and I’m not as confident as Casey or Jc. I sometimes care what people say but it doesn’t get on my nerves as much. Ok, now that you met my friends. Lets talk about the night that it all happened. It was a Friday night and my stuck up mom and dad were out of town for their new business with foldable bikes or something. My little sister Ariel were with her friends all night and don’t even think about saying “aww” or “thats like the little mermaid!” well she’s the opposite. She may have the red hair, the freckles and the eyes but I have the looks. So ha. I was in my kitchen making ramen noodles when Jc called me, “Hey! Are your parents out of town?” I could hear the muffled giggling in the background and I recognized that laugh anywhere, Casey. “Why? What’s going on?” I was a little concerned by the way that they were laughing. I hear Casey trying to grab the phone from Jc’s grip and hear them arguing. I hold the phone away from my ear and wait till they’re done. “Hello?” it’s Casey, I knew she would get the phone eventually. “We are coming over, Jc found this really cool website that we want to try. So put something really cute on and grab some snacks too!” she hangs up the call and I’m still stunned by what happened. What kind of website? Why were they laughing so hard? I mean I’m not surprised that Casey wanted snacks but ok. I walk up my long flight of stairs, go straight down the hallway to my room. I open the door and turn on the light. I go to shut my blinds when I realize that Casey’s Jeep is pulling into my driveway. I pull down my pajama pants and reach down to my floor to find a black pair of leggings. I hear the front door open and shouting coming from downstairs. I open my door and yell to them that I’m in my room getting dressed. They come in and jump on my bed, “Ohhh you look cute” Casey says to me while I put on a little makeup, put my hair in a side braid and put my black beanie on. “So, tell me about this new website you idiots found.” I said to them as they yelled at each other about who picked a song to play on my IHome. “Oh! Yeah!! Ok, so you go on and you talk to strangers from all over the world. But you can see a lot of… well. let’s not go there yet. But anyways, you can talk to a lot of people. Its fun we tried it before we came here, we found some really hot guys.” Casey said while bouncing up and down. I think shes…. excited?? Eh, whatever. “oh uhhh… ok. I guess we could try it later tonight.” I said. I dont really know about this….I mean I have heard about these type of websites and they don’t end well. Some girl was talking to a teenage boy and met up with him and I guess he turned out to be 57 year old man instead. What if we meet up with these so called guys and get raped?? WHat if we have to become sluts and dress like sexy firefighters and policemen and give old guys lap dances? I kept thinking to myself what if, what if, what if? I zone back into reality and see that Jc is looking for my laptop in my desk. I point to where my laptop is, under my bunch of clothes that I never put away. “You really need to clean this mess up. I mean look at it!” I watch as Jc picks up my clothes and tosses them off to the side to get to the laptop. She grabs the laptop and flops down on my bed. Jc is on the left side, Casey in the middle, and me on the right side, Casey takes the computer from in front of Jc and starts typing in the websites name. It starts to load as the website page goes up, I can feel my heart drop at what we are about to see. “Do we want to chat or do we want to go straight to the video chat?” Casey holds the cursor over the two options, I really don’t want to do either but I decide on video. “Let’s go with the video first.” I move Casey’s hand out of the way and move the cursor over to the video chat. It goes to the chatting and video page. I click “accept to video and microphone” it loads and it shows all three of us on the bottom box and the stranger on the top box. Its a black screen till a couch and plant shows up, nobody says anything and we just stare back. “HEEYY!!!” Casey yells to the couch and plant. All of the sudden a big, gross, saggy looking dick pops up and we all scream and Jc exits outs of the chat. “OH MY GOD!!!!!!! Did you see that???!!!!” Casey is laughing her head when the next stranger is looking at us like she’s gone crazy and exits out of the chat. “Boo you whore!” Jc screams at the screen and sticks up her middle finger. When the next stranger sees it she sticks up her middle finger at us too and leaves the chat. “Well, this is going well.” I say laughing to myself. Then a little voice in my head says this is only the beginning.

After at least 2 hours on omegle and talking to strangers it’s only 12:30 and I’m getting tired. “So, you live in Minnesota?” Jc is talking to some 18 year old who thinks we’re 16, why would she lie about something like that. I scoot down more and lay my head on Casey’s lap but is still in view of the camera. I reach over Casey and hit the exit button. “What the hell was that for?” Jc turns to me and looks at me with a twisted up face. I just shrug my shoulders and wait for the next stanger to be on the screen. The screen pops up with two really hot guys and I mean really hot. I sit up quick for this one and hit my elbow on the wall behind us “Damn it!!” we all start laughing really hard and the two boys join us. The one in the middle talks first “Can you hear us??” “Yeah, we can hear you” Casey has this big cheesy grin on her face. “Hello gorgeous, I’m Noah” Casey starts to blush and covers her face. The guy on Noah’s left says “Well, who is that beautiful girl sitting next to you?” he sorta leans on to Noah to get a better look at Jc. “Would you get off of me?” Noah shoves the guy back to his place. “I’m Bailey by the way.” he waves a small wave and smiles at Jc. “What’s your name?” Noah asks Casey and Jc apparently not noticing me at all. I try and zone out their “adorable” conversation when something in the back catches my eye. It’s another guy and he is way hotter than Noah or Bailey. “Hey, who is that in the back?” I point to the computer screen, knowing they won’t be able to know what I’m talking about. They look back and Noah kicks someone in the side and we hear a grunt in the back and the boy I saw before sits up and sits on Noah’s right side.“That’s our friend Evan.” Noah says smacking him on the arm. “Ow.” Evan, says giving Noah a death glare. I couldn’t stop looking at him. Oh my gosh. He is like a fucking greek god. “Well Lola, didn’t know you thought that.” Casey says smiling back at me. I hadn’t even realized I was on the side of Casey, out of view from the camera. “Oh uhm..” I started stuttering “Wait there’s more than 2 of you there?” Evan asks. “Oh!! Yes! C’mon Lola. Show your face.” Casey says trying to grab my arm, but I move and fall on the ground. “I don’t wanna.” “Awww pleaseeeeee” All three guys say pouting like dogs. I stand up and straighten out my leggings and shirt. I sit down next to Casey and look down at my phone to answer a snapchat from our friend Alex. Casey and Jc have been talking to them for 10 minutes now and I haven’t said a word. I finally looked up and see all 3 guys still there. I couldn’t help but think about how old they are, and where they're from. “Hey wait, now that the third girl looked up what’s her name?” Bailey asked and Casey was about to answer before Evan butted in. “They already said dumbshit. It was Lola.” I looked at him in shock that he remembered. “Haha yeah Lola. She’s the youngest out of us.” Jc said waving her hand in front of us. I could feel my cheeks heating up so I looked back down at my phone. “No don’t look down we wanna see your beautiful face.” Evan says. I look back up in shock and could feel the heat on my cheeks. After about 20 more minutes Casey had been stupid and gaven out our kiks. So now Evan has mine. Bailey has Jc’s. And Noah has Casey’s. They told the guys to kik them later. Casey closes out of the website and  closes the computer screen, tosses it off to my lap. She reaches behind her and grabs her phone, so does Jc. They lay down farther than they were before and starts talking to their “baes.” I grab my phone from behind me and read the the notification that comes in. EvanforDayzz: Hey, beautiful:) I smile to myself and realize what have we gotten ourselves in to.
