LOSS OF ViRGINiTY: AN EARLY MISTAKE

CHAPTER 9

"What?!" I yelled, staring at the boy in
disbelief. "That
inconsiderate, deceitful, arrogant, liar is
your brother!?"
"Well, if you have to put it that way." He
replied
calmly.
I couldn't believe it, this boy seemed so
different and yet, so the same. I mean
whenever Adams was with just me, he
was really nice. Adams was only an ass
when we were at school and around
other people. I just ditched school to get
away from Adams and all his bullshit and
now I'm stuck in a car with his younger
brother? Great!
"Yah, so you can call me either Adams'
little brother...or if you want Brandon,
since that's my name."
"Oh, yah...I totally forgot to ask what
your name is." I said feeling a little bit
embarrassed.
He laughed lightly at that while turning
the engine back on. It looked like he was
about to say something, then a knock on
his side window turned our attention
outside. A blond girl was standing there
with her arms crossed staring at Brandon
curiously, before eyeing me. Her hair
reached down to her shoulders in perfect
bouncy curls. Her eyes were light blue
and her skin was a soft ivory color. She
was wearing a cute pink
blouse, which only added to her adorable
features.
Brandon rolled down the window, "Hey
Docas!" He said, though she just stood
there, not saying anything.
"What's your problem?"
"Ummm...let me see," she spoke with
attitude but her voice was so small and
cute she wouldn't be able to scare a
baby. "You were supposed to meet me
outside the school half an hour ago. I
started walking and then I saw you
parked here...with Jane? Since when did
you start hanging out with her?"
"Since...half an hour ago." He replied
with a chuckle.
"Oh. Well are you going to let me in?"
She asked.
Brandon nodded as he depressed the
automatic door
locks. Dorcas smiled at us as she opened
the door and jumped into the backseat.
"I'm Dorcas," she said, waving at me with
a giddy look on her face.
"Oh...nice to meet you, I'm-" I began
before she cut me off.
"Jane, I know I've gone to school with
you for years."
"Oh...I'm sorry."
"Don't worry about it, I'm not at all
offended. You don't really pay attention
to anyone at school." She spoke
nonchalantly before adding, "Well, that
was until this week anyways."
"Yah...apparently." I replied. "Honestly, I
never even noticed. I always thought
everyone was ignoring me, I just found
out today it was the other way around..."
"What!?" She yelled in surprise while
Brandon pulled the SUV out of the Mart
parking lot and back onto the road.
Dorcas leaned on the edge of her seat
while poking her head between me and
Brandon. "You thought people were
ignoring you? Oh my God! Come
on Jane, you are like the most beautiful
girl in the whole school, I mean if you
actually wore clothes more
your age and got all that hair out of your
face, you'd be like model material. I
don't understand why you try to hide
yourself all the time, I mean if I had
your beauty, I'd be flaunting it!"
My face began to flush red at her words -
it was hard to believe she was speaking
the truth. Every time I looked in the
mirror I felt nothing but disgusted, I
never really thought I was pretty much less beautiful and her saying I looked better than all the other girls at the school had to be a lie. I was nothing compare to Tabitha with her perfectly curved body and bronze coloured skin. "I mean if you actually did something with yourself every morning," Dorcas shook her head as she spoke, "every guy would be kneeling down to you, worshipping the ground you walk on!" "Dorcas, she doesn't need to change anything, she's perfect the way she is!" Brandon interrupted her, "Now sit back and put your seat belt on!" He demanded. "Urgg!" She whined, "Fineeee." Her head disappeared back into the back of the vehicle as I turned my head and looked out the window. I was exhausted, I still hadn't gotten any sleep aside from my little nap in History class and my knees were still scratched up and full of dried up blood. The fact that Adams had embarrassed me completely in front of half the school was still stuck in the back of my mind, and not only that but for the first time in my life I was actually skipping class. "Janee?" Brandon spoke softly, his seductive voice vibrating in my ears as I turned my eyes towards him. "Are you okay?" "Yah, I've just had a pretty eventful day, that's all." He nodded in response as his free hand reached over to me and gently rubbed my shoulder. The feeling of his touch brought a warm sensation to my heart. It was nothing like the way I felt when Adams touched me. When Adams touched me I wanted to pounce on him and rip off all my clothes in the process! Brandon made me almost want to cuddle in his arms, hear that sweet gentle voice whispering in my ear. "Yah! I'm still back here." Dorcas' little voice broke through my thoughts as Brandon removed his hand from my shoulder. Just then the realization dawned on me as I looked at Brandon and then Dorcas. "Are you two...." dating, I wanted to say, but instead my voice trailed off. Dorcas began laughing while Brandon just looked amused before he began to talk. "No, Dorcas wishes we were!" "HA-Yah right B, I wouldn't date you if my life depended on it!" Brandon smiled while adding, "Me and Dorcas have been friends for years, she's more like my sister than anything." "Oh..." I responded, "Here's another question...Why aren't you guys at school?" Both Brandon and Dorcas looked at each other before turning their attention back to me. Dorcas was the first one to speak. "We're both ahead in all our classes and whenever we get to far ahead we take a day off school and go have some fun." "What were you guys planning on doing?" I asked. "We were going to take Brandon's boat out go for a little spin." Dorcas answered me. I tilted my head to the side before adding, "But you aren't anymore?" "Oh..." Dorcas mumbled before looking at Brandon and then back at me. "I just thought-"
Brandon cut her sentence short as he
looked at me in surprise, "Did you want
to go for a boat ride?" He inquired.
"Of course I do!" I answered with
excitement.
"Well that settles it." Dorcas' voice was
perky as she clapped her hands together.
"To the Boat-Mobile!"
Brandon and I both began to laugh in
unison, before repeating Dorcas' words
together with more enthusiasm
"To the Bat-Mobile!"
We pulled up to the harbour, finding a
free parking spot that was only a few feet
away from the docks. I was going to state
how lucky we were to find such a
good parking spot empty when I noticed
a little sign in front of us that read
'Private - Brown'. Seeing the name
right away reminded me of Adams as it
took me a second to realize that Brown
was Brandon's last name as well.
"You own your own parking spot?" I
asked with a huge smile plastered to my
face.
"Well, it's my parents - just like the boats
my parents'." He replied.
"And they don't care that we're taking it
out?"
Dorcas laughed as we all got out of the
vehicle. She came to my side and
whispered, "Like they'd noticed.
They probably wouldn't even notice if
their own house was on fire."
I lowered my eyes as Dorcas and I
walked around the SUV and met up with
Brandon on the sidewalk while
making our way towards the docks.
"Really? Why?" I
asked.
This time Brandon answered me, "My
parents are out of town a lot, so busy
with work it's pretty much like
Adams and I live on our own."
"Yah, My parents are the same..." my
voice was full of understanding.
We finally stopped in front of white Adria
1002 motor boat. I looked it up and
down while nodding my head in
acceptance. "Not bad, not bad." I said
while
admiring the boat. "2x 125hp Yammar
Diesel?" I asked while following Dorcas
and Brandon onto the boat.
"Sure is." Brandon answered, "You seem
to know a thing or two about boats." He
stated. "I read a lot."
Dorcas giggled before she decided to test
my knowledge, "What year?" she
questioned me.
"2005" I replied without hesitation.
"Hey Brandon, maybe you and I aren't
the smartest kids at school. Apparently
we have some hidden competition."
Dorcas yelled toward Brandon who was
now untying the boat.
A little smile appeared on Brandon's face
though he didn't reply to Dorcas. I
watched him as he headed up
the stairs and towards the steering
wheel. "And we're out of here!" He
yelled towards us as he started up the
motor. We pulled out of the docks as we
made our way out onto the water.
We slowly began to gain speed as the
warm breeze brushed through my hair. I
hadn't been on a boat for years and I had
almost forgotten how nice it felt as the
wind blew against my warm skin. It was
such an incredibly hot day today which
only made the boat ride
that much better. I stared out the boat
watching the water smashing against the
sides before rolling over and turning into
light waves. The sun beamed down on us
as the boat conjured winds that kept our
bodies cool.
Dorcas looked as if she were trying to
talk to me but the boat's motor
overpowered her voice as I sat there
watching her mouth form into different
shapes. Though I couldn't hear her, I felt
bad for not responding so I merely just
nodded my head at her as I turned
around again to look out the side of the
boat. I watched the ripples on the water
as we slowly began to stop. We
were now out of the harbour and as
looked over to see the town of McLasgidi
it barely looked like
anything other than a line of green.
I watched as Dorcas stood up and
stretched her arms out, "Need any help
with the anchor?" She called out to
Brandon.
"No," He called back, "It's already in!"
Brandon appeared in front of us, he was
now wearing a pair of green swimming
shorts that reached just past his
knees. His chest was bare, showing off
his slight muscles. He wasn't anywhere
near as muscular as Adams but his skinny
body and small abs were just as
inviting.
"Today was the perfect day to take the
boat out," Dorcas smiled as she waved
her arms in the air in attempt to soak up
the sun. Suddenly Dorcas began to strip
her clothes off as I quickly turned my
head away; trying to prevent myself
from seeing anything I wasn't intended
to. I heard Dorcas' giggle from behind
me, "Calm down Jane." She spoke with
amusement, "I'm wearing a bathing suit."
I turned around just in time to see
Dorcas standing on the edge of the boat,
"Last one in is a rotten egg!" She
joked as she leaped into the air before
doing a perfect dive into the water,
barely even making a splash.
I made my way over to where Dorcas
had jumped off the boat and sat down,
allowing my legs to dangle off the
edge. Dorcas resurfaced as her gaze met
mine. "Aren't you coming in?" She asked.
"No...I think I'll pass for now." I replied.
"Me too." Brandon said as he came and
sat down beside me.
"Fine, but you don't know what you're
missing out on!" Dorcas called out before
she dunked back under the
water.
"Honestly Janee...how can you be
wearing that?"
Brandon asked as he pointed toward my
black jeans and dark blue long sleeve T-
shirt with the Care Bears on it. I had a
tank top under the shirt which only made
the whole outfit that much warmer.
I shrugged my shoulders, "I don't
know...I guess I'm used to the heat."
"Dorcas was right though, you know
about how you seem to try to hide
yourself all the time." He spoke
quietly while staring into my eyes, "I
mean why don't you take off some of
those layers and let the sun
touch your skin for once?"
"Brandon Brown!" I pretended to sound
offended, "You just want me to strip for
you, don't you?" I teased.
"Well, I wouldn't so much mind that
either." He joked back as I playfully
punched him in the shoulder.
"You're going down for that, Jane!" He
laughed as I jumped up to my feet and
tried to run away. I barely got three feet
away when I felt Brandon's arms wrap around my waist before
pulling me up off my feet. I watched as
he continuously walked closer to
the edge of the boat as my struggling to
get free increased in intensity and
fervour. I felt his grip on me
slipping as the feeling of victory rose
through my body, I was almost free. Just
as I thought that, I felt both mine and
Brandon's body leaving the boat.
I gripped Brandon tightly as gravity had
taken over and we dropped into the
water, making a huge splash.
The ice cold ocean against my burning
hot body was shocking at first; even so, it
was unbelievably refreshing. I opened
my eyes under the water, realizing
Brandon and I still had our arms
wrapped around each other. I could feel
my cheeks flush pink and was glad
that no one could see my face properly. I
pushed Brandon away from me as I
swam to the surface in dire need of
oxygen. As my head surfaced into the
warm air, I heard Dorcas' bursts of
laughter only a few feet away.
"So apparently you guys are coming in!"
She teased as Brandon came up for air as
well.
The second Brandon's head poked up
from the water I pounced on top of him
playfully, trying to push him back under
the water. Brandon splashed the water
fiercely, making it harder for me to get
to him. I could see Dorcas watching us
with amusement before I splashed water
in her face as well. Dorcas swam over to
us and joined in, all three of us, against
each other in a raging water fight.
We continued to attack, push, and splash
each other, and every so often jump on
top of someone for a good
half an hour or so. Somewhere within
the playful fighting I managed to lose my
Care Bears shirt, leaving
me in only my white tank-top and black
jeans. All three of us finally lost all
energy to move as we pulled
ourselves back up onto the boat.
"Nice Bra Jane." Brandon teased as he
looked over at my see-through white
tank-top.
"Shut up Brandon, maybe if you didn't
toss me into the water with all my
clothes on." I tried to sound mad,
but you could hear the light-hearted ness
in my voice.
Weirdly enough I wasn't embarrassed to
be seen in my tank-top like that.
Honestly, I didn't even care, I don't
know if it was because I was getting use
to Dorcas and Brandon or if it were
merely because I was too tired to
care.
All three of us lay on the boat floor,
trying to regain our energy. A little while
later, we finally got up as Brandon went
and pulled up the anchor, Dorcas and I
headed into the boat in search of a
bathroom. Dorcas had a skirt she was
going to let me wear seeing as my
jeans had grown two times bigger and
were now falling off me. I stared in the
mirror after I finished changing.
When Dorcas said she had a skirt, I hadn't
thought she meant a little piece of fabric.
The white skirt just managed to cover my
butt, making me look like a
young LovePeddler. I was wearing my white
tank-top that was now see-through
revealing my black bra.
"Are you still in there?" Dorcas called out
from behind the door.
"Dorcas!" I screeched back, "I look like a
freakin' SLUT!" I opened the bathroom
door as Dorcas' eyes scanned my body. Her mouth dropped open as she
stared at me in disbelief.
"Okay, you can just have that skirt
because now that I've seen how good it
looks on you, it's never going to
be the same on me." She said with
disappointment, "And Jane, You don't
look like a slut, if your outfit were black,
then maybe. The white gives you an
angelic look."

LOSS OF VIRGINITY: AN EARLY MISTAKE

CHAPTER 10

Dorcas left me standing in the bathroom
alone as she disappeared out onto the
deck of the boat. I stood in the same
place checking myself out in the mirror. I
looked like a completely different
person. My wet hair was pulled back into
a messy ponytail revealing my face for
once. While usually all the clothes I wore
hid every curve of my body, these
clothes enhanced them.
As I stared into the mirror I felt
completely exposed and naked, although
at the same time a new born confidence
grew inside me.
I felt kind of fake and made up. Like this
apparition wasn't me; I looked as if I
were trying to be someone else. I finally
made up my mind and decided to wear
the little skirt and see-through tank-top.
It's not like I really had any other
options. I made my way up onto the deck
of the boat, making my way over to
Dorcas and
Brandon. I could feel the boat slowly
begin to stop as Brandon found his usual
berth at the docks.
Neither Dorcas nor Brandon noticed me
as I stood against the wall, almost hidden
by the shadows. Both of them seemed to
be staring wide-eyed at something on
the dock. From my position I couldn't see
what they were staring at. It wasn't until
the icy voice rang through my ears
freezing both my body and heart
motionless. I could feel my knees
weaken beneath me as I fought to
remain upright.
"Hey lil' bro, you didn't tell me you were
taking the boat out. I've been waiting
around here forever dude!"
Adams' voice echoed through my ears.
As much as Brandon's deep, sexy voice
brought a shiver down my spine it was
nothing compared to the way Adams
voice made me feel. Sure Brandon was
nice, even sweet and he was my safest
bet knowing that he would never hurt
me. Adams on the other hand made me
feel a way no other guy ever can ever
could or ever will. Adams husky voice
vibrated my ears, calling me towards him
like a siren song as if I were under the
spell of a love potion.
"Oh...uh...umm...so-sorry
Adams...I...didn't...it didn't even...cr-
cross my mind." Brandon stuttered as he
stared down at his brother in shock.
I could feel my legs began to move
though it felt as if I were floating as I
made my way out of the shadows
and toward the edge of the boat. My
eyes slowly found their way to as my
heart clenched inside my chest almost
causing me to throw up. The pain that
was brought on by seeing him standing
there forced my eyes to well up with
unshed tears as I stared down at his oh-
so perfect body.
His square set jaw was scrunched up into
a playful smirk as his perfectly messy
hair blew lightly around
his head from the ocean's breeze. His
outrageously perfect muscles were
outlined through his size too
small t-shirt. It was incredibly sexy
seeing as the shirt was white and made
his flawless, bronze skin stand
out like a rose in the middle of a field
full of weeds.
Everything about Adams was perfect, like
he were a gift from the God's sent to
earth to punish girl's the worse way
possible - heartache. If that was the case,
then so far he is doing an absolutely
wonderful job. Just standing there -
seeing him made me want to fall to my
knees, face in my hands and cry until
every last tear was drained from my
body. I couldn't imagine how any guy
could possibly make me feel this way,
how he can force me to sink so low as to
wallow in my own pathetic misery?
I could feel the lump rising into my
throat as I swallowed hard. I wasn't going
to cry, not this time, I was not going to
give him that satisfaction! No, I was going
to hold my head up high and act as if I
didn't care, it was the only way. I knew I
was strong and it was now time to prove
it.
"Oh...don't worry Adams we were just
leaving!" I yelled out toward him as I
walked over to Brandon and
wrapped my arm around his neck.
I watched as Adams smirk quickly
disappeared at the sound of my voice,
his face shifted into the look of
shook at what I'm guessing was the
realization that I was on the boat. My
smile widened as I noticed
Adams eyes scan my body from head to
toe, stopping briefly at both my mini
skirt and then see through shirt.
"...Jane...?" He whispered in disbelief. He
looked back and forth between Brandon
and me as his confusion was quickly
replaced by anger. "Brandon?!"
He yelled angrily.
"What..." Brandon asked, pretending he
didn't know what Adams was talking
about even though we all knew he knew
exactly what this was all about.
"So is that how it's going to be little bro?"
Adams face was flushed beet red, his
entire body exuding rage and unbridled
anger!
"Oh get over yourself Adams!" I shot
back as I jumped off the boat and onto
the dock. My mini skirt inched
up a little giving Adams a quick flash of
my underwear.
I felt a little embarrassed and could feel
my cheeks begin to redden. I managed
to hide my embarrassment by waving my
hand in front of my face pretending it
were the heat that flushed my cheeks
pink. "It's not like we were ever
together!"
"I never said this was about you!" He
retorted back.
I laughed a fake seductive laugh, "You
don't have to say it, Babe...It's written all
over your face." I whispered into his ear
as my fingers ran through his perfectly
smooth hair. His chocolate brown hair
felt like fluff from the heavens.
STOP IT!
JANE REMEMBER! HE'S AN ASSHOLE! My
mind yelled.
I forced myself to come back to reality
while forcing
Adams out of my mind. I brought my
face up closer to his as if I were about to
kiss him and the second he closed his
eyes getting ready to kiss me back, I
shoved him hard in the chest. I gazed at
Adams as he tumbled over and fell off
the dock before splashing
into the water.
I could hear Dorcas' laughter from
behind me as I watched Adams head
emerge out of the water. His perfectly
brown hair dripped water down his face
making him only that much more
irresistible. An unknown emotion
crossed over his face as he stared
up at me while swimming over to the
dock.
Dorcas grabbed hold of my arm while
pulling me away. I could still hear her
laughter as I glanced over my
shoulder trying to get another look at
Adams. He was just starting to pull
himself back up onto the dock as
he watched us disappear out of sight. The
look on Adams face was stuck in my head
haunting me. Most people say payback
feels good and that its fun, if
that's true then why did I feel so shitty?
I was so lost in my own thoughts that I
had barely noticed Brandon trailing a few
feet behind Dorcas and I.
It wasn't until Dorcas' voice broke
through my daze that I realized that
Brandon seemed almost upset.
"What is up with you two!?" Dorcas finally
stopped dead in her tracks and turned to
look at both me and then
Brandon. "K honestly, that was probably
one of the funniest things I've seen all
year and you guys aren't even laughing.
Instead you two are sulking!"
At the exact moment me and Brandon
looked straight at each other as I finally
realized that I wasn't the only
one who felt guilty, which only made me
feel that much worse. I lowered my head
in shame as I started down at the
ground. I didn't want to tell Dorcas that I
felt like a bitch for pushing Adams in the
water or that the look on Adams face
pretty much destroyed me.
That would only prove how much power
Adams had over me.
Brandon was the first to speak, "I don't
know, Dorcas...
It's just I've never seen my brother look
so vulnerable and hurt." Brandon spoke
quietly as he walked over to me and put
his arm on my shoulder. "Not that I
blame you Jane, I mean what my brother
did to you is way worse, I'm just not used
to seeing my brother like that.
I'm still just a little surprised." He tried
to comfort me and yet it wasn't working,
I still felt as bad as ever.
All three of us climbed into the SUV
silently, this time I sat in the back seeing
as I was no longer in the mood
to talk. I may have been overreacting a
little bit, I
mean all I had done was push Adams into
the water. It wasn't like I embarrassed
him in front of half the
school or anything that extreme. But
still, the fact remained the same, the
look of betrayal and vulnerability that
masked Adams' face was heart
wrenching.
I stared out the window of the SUV,
watching as we passed by houses, cars
and people though I barley
saw anything. The only imagine I could
see was Adams with his face covered in
the ocean's water, his hair dripping
wetness down his cheeks and his deep
brown eyes staring up at me, pleading
for forgiveness.
"Alright Jane, we're here." Brandon's
voice interrupted me as I looked around,
realizing we were now parked outside
my house.
"Oh." I said as I grabbed my back pack
and tossed it over my shoulders.
"Well...uh, thanks for taking me out on
the boat, I really did have fun." I said
while forcing a smile. I opened the door
and I began to descend from the vehicle.
"Oh!" Dorcas said pretty much jumping
into the back of the SUV and wrapping
her arms around me while her
blonde curls bounced up and down. "I
had so much fun with you today! It was
so nice actually having a
girl around for once, I'm usually just
stuck with Brandon but today was fun!
And don't worry so much about the
whole Adams thing I know you and
Brandon are like all upset about it and
for absolutely no reason I might add! But
seriously, Adams deserved it, no
doubt and he'll be over it by tomorrow,
so don't fret."
Dorcas was talking so fast I could barley
even manage to understand a word she
was saying. "But honestly, we
should hang out again! One Tree Hill is
on tonight, I really love that show you
should seriously come over
and watch it, P.S you don't have a choice
in the matter I'll pick you up at 7:30.
Okay?" Dorcas pulled me back into a hug
before I could even answer her but her
crazy excitement made me laugh.
Honestly, how could anyone manage to
talk so fast?
"Dorcas, remember - stop and take a
breath!" Brandon laughed as he pulled
on her shirt and hauled her to the front
of the vehicle. "I'll see you at school
tomorrow Jane, I really did enjoy
hanging out with you." His rough sexy
voice was sincere as he looked
over to me as a little smirk played its
way onto his face before he pulled out of
the driveway.
Dorcas stuck her head out the window as
they began todrive down the street, "I'LL
PICK YOU UP AT 7:30!!"
She yelled out.
I smiled to myself as I began to make my
way to the front door of my house. Even
though there were multiple emotions
running through my body, the fact that
those two could still make me laugh
continued to amaze me.
"Jane.." I jumped out of fear, as my
heart stop for a second.
"Richard!" I yelled and hit him in the
stomach with my backpack, "You scared
the crap out of me!"
Richard folded his arms as he stared up
at me and spoke
sternly, "We need to talk."

TO BE CONTINUED...

Suddenly, the all timid girl learns to speak up a bit. Good development, guess this was easier for her cos of Brandon and Dorcas.

@Kelvin3028, Thanks for the update, made my evening

Whispering *you promised three chapters, right?? Patiently waiting for the third

LOSS OF VIRGINITY: AN EARLY MISTAKE

CHAPTER 11

We need to talk? I asked myself as I
stared down
at my older brother sitting on our front
door
steps. What in the world would Richard
need to talk
to me about? And why did he look so
disappointed? The look that masked
Richard's face
was the spitting image of my father's
facial
expression whenever I did something
bad or
wrong.
"Okkkayyy?" I said in a questioning tone
as I sat
down on the step beside my brother.
"What's this
all about?"
He answered me with only one word,
"Adams."
I had to mentally kick myself as I stared
down at
the sidewalk in shock. How did I not see
this
coming -Richard was my brother, Adams
was one of
his best friends, I should have known he
would
eventually find out. In a way I did
although I never
expected him to find out so soon. Even
so I
attempted to pretend I didn't know what
he was
talking about.
"What about Adams?" I questioned, even
though I
regretted asking it the second it left my
lips due
to the anger that appeared on my
brother's face.
"Don't play stupid with me Jane!"
Richard spoke low with anger in a HEROIC
effort to
declare the seriousness of the situation.
"Okay Richard, just let me explain-" I
decided to tell
my brother the truth, there was no point
in hiding
it any longer.
"Let you explain? What is there to
explain, I think
I've got a pretty good idea already." He
barked
back.
"Yah, but I really do like Adams and it's
not his
fault-"
"Oh. I know it's not his fault Jane" He cut
me
off. His voice as sharp as ever, "Look, I
know he's
probably a good looking guy to you and
sure he's
popular."
This time it was my turn to cut him off.
"It's not
just that. He's also nice," I confessed
before
adding, "sometimes."
"Nice?" He demanded, "Adams Brown?"
A loud,
sarcastic chuckle vibrated through his
throat.
"Even if Adams was nice, which for one
I've never
seen him be nice to anyone, how would
you
know?"
"Because, I've seen him be nice to me!"
How would I know? Wasn't this what
Richard wanted to talk to me about? Me
and Adams hanging out, becoming
sexually involved. Yet, he's standing
there questioning me on how I
would know whether or not Adams is
nice. I
stared at my brother as confusion passed
through
me.
I know because I've hung out with him at
least
three times now! I wanted to yell, but
didn't.
"He's been nice to you?" My brother
questioned
me, staring at me like I was crazy. "Jane,
you
need to stop these delusions! I don't
know what
has gotten into you these past couple
days but
honestly it has got to stop." Richard
spoke sternly
while getting up off the stairs and staring
down
at me. "Adams is not a nice guy, he is not
your boyfriend, he will never be your
boyfriend, and
mostly You-Have-Got-To-Stop-Stalking-
him!" He
yelled the last part out one word at a
time so
loudly I'm sure all our surrounding
neighbours
heard him.
"What!?" I literally screamed this as loud
as my
lungs would allow. "Me...st-st-stalking
him!?"
Was Richard serious? I thought angrily.
Did he
honestly just accuse me of stalking
Adams?
My own brother, my own flesh-n-blood
actually
believes all the rumours that are being
circulated
throughout the school about me. The
worst part
of it all was that I wasn't stalking Adams,
if
anything it's the other way around!
Who came to MY bedroom, and waited
on MY bed
for me that Friday night? My mind
continued to
yell.
Who pulled ME into the janitors closet?
Who came to MY house and threw rocks
at MY
bedroom window?
Who took ME from MY house in the
middle of the
night?
Who brought ME to their "Special" place?!
When I ran away from the school to get
away,
WHO ended up showing UP?!
The answer to all these questions is:
ADAMS, ADAMS, ADAMS!!!
And yet, apparently it is too impossible
to
imagine Adams being the one who's
going after
me, so instead people are coming up
with this
ridiculous story about me stalking
Adams?! It was
completely and utterly outrageous
because not
only does pretty much all of High think
I'm stalking Adams but now so does my
older
brother.
Things couldn't get any worse!
"Don't sound so surprised Jane."
Richard's voice
lowered to a more nonchalant tone. "And
don't try
denying it either, I've added up all the
clues
which lead to the same conclusion...You
having
an unhealthy crush on Adams."
"Clues?!" I jumped to my feet as anger
began
boiling up inside me. I've never wanted
to punch
my brother in the face as much as I
wanted to at
that exact moment. "What clues?!""Jane,
Calm down. I'll tell you..."Richard spoke
carelessly which only added to my anger.
I stood
there glaring at my brother, I could feel
my cheeks
burning red and my face scrunched up
wildly. He
continued to speak, "It first started
Friday night, I
kept catching you staring at Adams which
I
guess is normal but still. Then, Saturday
morning
you asked me where Adams went and
after that
you continued to bug me all weekend
with
questions about Adams. Monday morning
when
we picked up Kevin you never spoke one
word to
him, like always, but that was until he
mentioned
Adams' name. For the first time ever you
actually
said something to Kevin, you asked him
if Adams
slept with Tiffany and Jessica." Richard
paused to
look over at me and a look of triumph
covered his face.
The anger that once roared through my
body had
now vanished and was replaced by shock
and a
dawning realization. Even though I knew I
wasn't
stalking Damen I was beginning to see
why my
brother would think I was.
Trent continued, "Then people at school
kept
catching you trying to talk to him, like
that time
at his locker during lunch break. Then at
lunch
break again outside by the tree. Now,
you're
hanging out with his little brother? Jane,
I love
you and all but this stuff is not looking
good. All
your life you've never really talked to
anyone but
me, mom, dad and other adults. Then
suddenly all
this crap happens with Adams and now
you're
out god knows where with Brandon
Brown and
Dorcas Kindle?"
"Okay, I know this all sounds bad Trent."
I said
finally agreed with my brother. He was
right all
these clues did make me seem like
Adams's little
stalker, if only people knew what actually
happened behind the scenes. "But I'm
not
stalking Adams...I swear."
"You do like him right?" His question
sounded
more like an accusation.
"Yes, but he likes me too!" Okay, that was
a lie. I
didn't know for sure whether or not
Richard liked
me. His bi-polar attitude was completely
contradictory causing me to believe
something one minute and then the complete
opposite the
next.
"Stop being delusional. Richard does not
like you Jane!"
"Why!?" I screamed back, "Why is it so
hard to
believe? Why is it Richard can't like
someone like
me?!"
"Because he's mine-" The second the
words left
Richard 's lips he shut his mouth and
stared down at
me, completely shocked by his own
words.
I too just stood there staring up at my
older
brother who towered over me. His last
three
words continued to echo through my
ears as I
only managed to spit out one word,
"What...?"
"Nothing!" Richard said quickly as his
cheeks
flushed completely red and I swear I
could almost
see sweat begin to form on his forehead.
"Richard ...are you Ga..." I cleared my
throat,
"Richard ...Do you like Bo..." I cleared my
throat
again, no matter which way I attempted
to ask the
question I still couldn't finish asking it. I
looked
up at my older brother, knowing he
understood
what I was trying to ask.
I watched him as he inhaled deeply
before
exhaling out and then nodding his head
once - up
and then down. I felt my heart began to
race fast,
not because I really cared that my
brother was gay
it was more because of how shocked I
was. Then
something else crossed my mind as panic
soared
through my body, "And Adams?"
Richard shook his head before opening
his mouth to
speak. "No...I don't think so...I'm pretty
sure he's
not." His voice was so small, like he
thought
maybe I was disappointed in him or that
he had
somehow let me down? "I guess I'm the
one with
the unhealthy crush on him."
"You know Richard, there's really nothing
wrong
with that." I tried to reassure him.
He looked down at me as if I were a kid
who knew
nothing. "Sure Jane, there's nothing
wrong with
me being gay, I'm sure mom and dad
would love
it if their one and only son liked boys."
He spoke
sarcastically and then added. "Either way,
please Jane, promise me you won't say
anything to
anyone!?" He pleaded.
I had never seen my brother look so
defenceless
so exposed and vulnerable, I nodded my
head. "I promise..."

TO BE CONTINUED....

Luckygurl:
Suddenly, the all timid girl learns to speak up a bit. Good development, guess this was easier for her cos of Brandon and Dorcas.

@Kelvin3028, Thanks for the update, made my evening

Whispering *you promised three chapters, right?? Patiently waiting for the third

There you go... Thanks for following... Now I have a fan base..lol

wao!!!!!! weldone bro

whitemosquito:
Nein, "sweetness". If you call yourself a writer-regardless of whether you're worthy of the title Or not- you take upon yourself the responsibility of upholding the tenets, ethics of Literature. So, Yes. I do have a responsibility to the god of English language. First. Before my readers. And part of that is making sure that I do not tout rubbish as literature.. It's also about precedence... I hoped you of all ppl would understand. What If some fan becomes inspired by my work and decides to start writing too, using my poor grammar as standard?
So Im sorry If Im being hard, But writers must be held to higher standards.

And Yea, you should hurry up and take me out again o before someone beats you to the cinema thing...Bubba.

Ja, liebchen, I do understand. I don't remember how long I've been around this type of art. It fades into my earliest memories. Suffice to say that the things that you find offensive are the points around which languages evolve. Only a language that isn't spoken by people experiences no change. As long as it is used, people will change it either deliberately or unconsciously. What artists do is change it with imagination.

You should be hard, nothing wrong with that. I just think you should look at other things when you critique a work.


Ah yes. Nobody gets to beat me to that. I'll find them. I'll grind them. I'll pound them to pieces. I'll pulverize them.


See how you're forming iron lady here. Lol.


And what on earth is "Bubba"?

Kelvin3028, you live in The States? Because this is so not Nigerian. Doesn't even try to be. I don't like that about it. From the single chapter I just skimmed, it seems a little too...I don't know, professional? for an amateur. And not really in the best of ways. I hope I find time to read it all the way through and figure out what this, um, recoil I feel is about. Then I can give you my full opinion and see if I can help you make a better work. So you should take this post under advisement.

Don't stop though. It'd be nice to see the end of this story.

You still don't get it, I'm not an amateur when it comes to using accents, maybe you need to speak to me then you will believe this. I spent all my childhood life seeing American movies then got admitted to study English... Will be graduating in 3 weeks... So if I write in any accent, I merit it...moreover, I intentionally wrote this in this format just to make it different from all of this unheard writers out there. Then, if this blows up the way I hope, I'm gonna be counting dollars not naira... Thanks for the comment though.

Kelvin3028:

You still don't get it, am not an amateur, I spent all my childhood life seeing American movies then got admitted to study English... Gonna be graduating in 3 weeks... So if I write in any accent, I merit it... thanks for the comment though.

Ah, that explains about the whole American theme then and the "professionalism".

Do understand that I really only skimmed one chapter. I currently have attention issues so I didn't read the whole thread to "get anything". What I shared was my impression of the single chapter I skimmed. Like I said, you were to take my comments under advisement.

You should consider writing a Nigerian story though. I'm sure it will challenge you. I didn't do a degree in English but I was a monster that fed on the English tongue in incredible ways and I grew up on an overdose of Western culture and automatically created stories that worked in their, er, world. When I tried to tell a Nigerian story though it was quite an experience. I think you should try it, perhaps after this one.

Congratulations, by the way. I have no doubt you're graduating with honors. Very good to know you.

Ihe, languages change I agree But NOT tenses!! I understand how confusing these word forms can be, especially LOSS, LOST and even LOOSE. However, several people corrected the Op, he should have graciously accepted them instead of invoking License.
LOST is a verb. It can never be a noun. The correct thing is LOSS not LOST.

BTW, Im going to the cinema next weekend. With Or without you. Duh!

Lol. Ok, babe. You should absolutely find English literature from the 18th century though. That'll help put things in perspective.

And you weren't gonna tell me, were you, honey? Smdh. I'm heartbroken and I'll take it out on you when I see you again. Propriety be damned.

I will consider ur advice (talking about write something African) will be hard though but will try...

LOSS OF VIRGINITY: AN EARLY MISTAKE

CHAPTER 12

Richard and I moved into the living room
finding
ourselves a spot on the couch. I sat on
one end
while Richard sat on the other. The
fireplace was
burning brightly illuminating the dark
room in
which all the windows were covered with
maroon
coloured curtains blocking out the sun.
I looked over at my older brother,
visually
scanning his body. He didn't look gay, he
didn't
act gay and as much as I really didn't care
it was
still so hard to believe that my brother
was
actually attracted to men. My brother
was a jock,
he played football and was actually good
at it, all
his friends were guys and he didn't care
about
how he looked. Some days he'd get out
of bed
and grab clothes off the floor, throw
them on and
leave for school.
All my life I thought gay guys were all
flamboyant,
do their hair in the morning, put make
up on and
say things like Oh. My. God. And No she
didn't.
You know, only had girlfriends and
giggled when
a hot guy walked by, tried to change their
voice
into a high-pitched screech. But Trent's
not like
that, he is the complete opposite, he acts
and
looks and is like any other straight man.
He
knows everything there is to know about
cars and
trucks; I mean he actually rebuilt his own
72
Chevy all by himself!
I think that's why the fact that my
brother is gay
bugs me so much. Usually when
someone close
to you is gay, you know it, even if they
don't
admit it, you and everyone else still
know the
truth. Though, it's not like that with
Trent; if I
were to even try to tell anyone Richard's
gay no one
would believe me, I doubt anyone would
even
believe him if he said it!
"What are you thinking about?" Trent
voice broke
my thought, he sounded sad and yet his
voice
was almost shaky. "A good way to get rid
of me,
to disown your gay brother?"
"Oh shut up Richard!" I said as I threw a
side pillow
from the couch at him. "Stop feeling
sorry for
yourself, you're gay! What's the big deal?
Half the
population of the world is gay nowadays!"
"Does that means you're gay to?" Richard
said
jokingly, "That would make it so much
easier to
finally being able to get everything off
my chest. I
looked over at my brother to try and tell
what he
was thinking although his face was
completely
emotionless.
"Weird..." Was his only response.
"Weird? That's all you have to say...What's
weird?" I asked extremely confused with
how
Richard was acting.
"Everything, nothing you told me sounds
like the
Adams I know...Other than Friday
night...But even
that, you know he has never spent a
whole night
with a girl before...Usually he'll take off
the
second the girl falls asleep."
"You're not mad?" I asked him, ignoring
his
rambling. "I mean...Don't
you...Well...Like him?"
Richard laughed, "That doesn't matter, he
likes girls
and I don't really have a chance." He
said.
"Although, I don't like the way that
he...Wait...Never mind."
What? What was he just about to say? I
thought
while staring at my brother. Honestly I
hate it
when people start saying something and
then
change their mind! That is so fricken
annoying!
"What were you going to say?" I prodded
him.
He shook his head, "It's not important."
Frick that's annoying! I wanted to scream
out.
"So then tell me."
"No." He said sternly, "Just leave it."
DING DONG DANG, DING DONG DANG!
"Saved by the Bell!" Richard said while
jumping up
off the couch and running for the door.
"Richarrrrrd!" I yelled running after him.
I reached him just as he opened the
front door to reveal a short little blond
with bouncy curls. A large smile covered
her cute little face, two small dimples on
each end of her smile. "Hey Richard!"
She waved at him enthusiastically, "Mind
if I steal Jane for a bit, we're having a
girls night,
watching One Tree Hill."
"No, please take her away!" Richard
looked over at me and smiled.
"You can join us if you'd like Richard,
though I
doubt you'd like One Tree Hill." Dorcas
said while
laughing at her own joke.
I didn't laugh though I was too busy
wondering if
my brother really would like that show. I
mean
before it would never even cross my
mind, but
now, maybe he did...
"A show about a bunch of whiney
girls...No...I
tell mom and dad. I can be like, 'Mom,
Dad...I'm
gay.' Then they'll say, 'What?!' And I'll be
like 'So
is Jane!!' and point my finger as you all
dramatically."
I started laughing at my brother's lame
joke
before adding, "No Trent I'm not gay,
remember
I'm Adams 'Craaazzzzy Stalkkkerrrr!'" I
said sarcastically.
"Okay, Jane..." Suddenly his voice went
completely serious. "If you aren't
stalking Adams,
then what is going on, why do you keep
asking
about him and trying to talk to him at
school?"
I completely stopped laughing as I stared
at my
brother in shock, I wasn't expecting him
to ask
me that and I hadn't decided on whether
or not I
wanted to tell him the truth. Before I
didn't want
to tell him because I figured he'd hunt
Adams
down and kick his ass, but now that I
know
Richard's gay I'm pretty sure he wouldn't
risk
breaking a nail just to punch some guy
out. I'm
scared to tell Richard because from his
reaction
earlier I'm pretty sure my brother likes
the same
guy that I do. I don't know how he would
react if
he found out what truly happened
between Adams
and I.
"Come on Jane...Just tell me, I'm going
to end
up finding out either way and I'd rather
hear it
from you."
He had a good point. I breathed deeply
summoning up enough nerve to tell him
the truth.
"It all started last Friday... when Adams
was
staying the night here..." I started before
I began
to spill everything to my brother. I told
him
everything about that Friday night, how
Adams
was in bedroom waiting for me, how he
was gone
in the morning. I told him about the
janitor's
closet, how he left me when Tabitha
showed up. I
told him how Adams showed up at my
house in
the middle of the night and took me to
his 'secret
spot' where we stayed up all night
talking. How
he embarrassed me in front of half the
school this
afternoon and then how I met Brandon
and Dorcas.
After I finally finished telling him
everything relief
washed over me, it was the first time I
had talked
to anyone about Adams and it was quite
liberating
think I'll pass." He actually sounded a bit
disgusted by the thought, "You girls have
fun
though." He went back into the house. As
I
watched him disappear I decided I'd find
out later
what he was about to say.
"Ready?" Dorcas asked pointing toward
her Yellow
2009 Volkswagen beetle.
"For sure!" I replied while following her
over to
her car, "Cute car, honestly it suits you!"
"Thanks, my parents got it for me for my
birthday."
"If you have your own car, why were you
walking
today? You know when Brandon forgot to
pick
you up after lunch." I asked her while
getting into
the passenger's seat.
"Urg...Thanks for reminding me, I can't
believe he
just left me there! 'Effin dink." Dorcas
said as she
put her keys in the ignition and started
up the
car. "He usually picks me up in the
morning for
school. The Brown's live next door to me
so it's
pointless for us to both bring our
vehicles."
"Oh great..." I spoke sarcastically as I
pulled my
seatbelt on and we pulled out of the
drive way.
"You live like right next to them? like-"
"-Like jump out of my bedroom window
and land
in their house right next to them? Yup."
Dorcas said
finishing my sentence and answering my
question
at the same time.
I sighed loudly while thinking about how
maybe
going to Dorcas' house was a bad idea. I
didn't
want to see Adams and I had a good
feeling that
it was going to be nearly impossible with
him
only being two feet away.
"Is that okay, Jane?" Dorcas asked me,
finally
realizing my sudden change in mood.
"Yah, that's fine." I lied.
The rest of the ride to Dorcas' house was
pretty
uneventful; we talked about school and
upcoming
projects for our classes. It was about a
fifteen
minute drive from my house to Dorcas'
and as we
turned onto her street I recognized right
away
which of the houses were Brandon and
Adams.
It was a large white house with black
linings and
roof. The house had a complete circular
driveway
with a large fountain in the middle of it.
There was
a large three door garage that seemed to
be
completely useless seeing as both
Adams' GMC
truck and Brandon's SUV were both
parked on the
driveway.
Just my luck, I thought to myself, they're
both home.
Dorcas pulled into the driveway of the
house right
next to the white one. Her house wasn't
nearly as
big though it was just as nice. The whole
house
was a pale brown color made of stucco
with large
windows covering the front of the house.
There
was a large balcony on the second floor
that went
from one side of the house to the other.
"We're here!" Dorcas turned to look at
me a large
smile plastered across her face. "We
have ten minutes before One Tree Hill
starts."
"Oh, well then we better hurry!" I said
trying to mimic Dorcas' excitement when
in reality I wasn't very much of a One
Tree Hill fan. The only reason
I agreed to go was because according to
Dorcas 'I didn't have a choice in the
matter'.
I felt a little bad, it was the first time
Dorcas and I
were actually hanging out and maybe my
only
chance in having a real friend and
already I was
basing our friendship on lies. Well,
technically I
didn't lie to her, she never asked me if I
watched
or liked the show. I'm guessing she just
assumed
seeing as almost all the girls at our
school loved it.
Within seconds we were inside Dorcas'
house,
sitting on the couch in the living room
with bowls
of popcorn in our hands. "Almost on!!"
Dorcas
clapped her hands together excitingly
before
turning her attention to me.
She was prettying much jumping on the
couch
with excitement and yet I was just sitting
there
bored. I was just starting to yawn when I
realized
Dorcas was still staring at me with
narrowed eyes.
"What?" I asked, dumbfounded to the
fact that
Dorcas was obviously confused with my
lack of
excitement. "Oh! Yah...umm, yay? One
Tree Hill...yay!"
Okay...So I'll definitely never make it as
an actor.
"Okay? That was the worse attempt at
excitement
ever!" Dorcas stated while laughing at my
academy award performance "You've
never watched the show have you?"
"Not really...and by that I mean no." I
finally admitted, "Never."
"Really!?" and the excited Dorcas was
back, "Oh my God! You're going to love
it, seriously!" She was back to jumping up
and down on the couch,
every so often knocking popcorn out of
the bowl
and onto the floor.
So, the show wasn't as bad as I thought it
was
going to be. I mean there were a bit of
whiney
girls like my brother said but all in all it
was
pretty interesting. It was nice to watch a
show
with almost as much drama as my own
life - it
made me feel a little bit better.
"You know, Hailey and Nathan's
relationship, like in the beginning kind of
reminds me of you and
Adams'." Dorcas said as the previews for
next week came to an end.
"There is no relationship between me
and Adams."
I informed her.
"Yah, keep telling yourself that." Dorcas
said while
placing her empty bowl on the coffee
table. "But you like him right?"
"Why does that matter?" I questioned
her.
"Because we're friends now and friends
tell each
other stuff like that." She continued to
hassle me for the truth.
"Okay...Sure, I kind of like him but he's
still a
dick!" I blurted out the truth came out.
A sweet little 'awww so cute' smile
covered Dorcas'
face, "He's only like that because he's not
used to
actually having feelings for someone."
"Yah...Sure that's what it is." I spoke to
her like
she was crazy and in need of medication
or at the
very least sedation!
He's a senior at high school, he's had
tones of girls and yet Dorcas was sitting
there trying to tell me he was being
'shy'? I'm sure that was the
reason, I mean usually when you like
someone
and you're shy you decide to embarrass
them in
front of half the school, that's always the
best
way to go about it.
"Okay, enough about me and my love
life, who do
you like?" I decided to change the
subject.
"No one!" Dorcas almost yelled as her
cheeks flushed deep red.
"You're lying!" I accused her.
"So what, I'm not telling you!" She folded
her arms and turned her head away from
me.
"You have to... We're friends now and
friends tell each other stuff like that." I
smiled, knowing she had to tell me now
seeing as that was her own rule.
"Fine!" She turned to face me, her face
still as red as an apple. "I like...."
Grabbed the pillow from the
couch and pressed it against her face
shyly. She spoke into the pillow muffling
her words,
"Brhufen."
I took the pillow from her, "What was
that?!" I smiled.
"Brandon!" She finally said clearly as my
eyes widened and I stared at her in
shock .
"I am in love with him" she said as my
eyes unconsciously became even bigger.

LOSS OF VIRGINITY: AN EARLY MISTAKE

CHAPTER 13

"Brandon?" I finally asked, "I thought, well, I
thought you two were just friends?"
"We are...that's the thing." She said as her eyes
fell to the ground. I could see the sadness
within them as I began to understand her
situation a little better. "We are just friends.
We've always
been friends. He barely notices me, it's like he
only sees me as...like...I don't know...one of the
guys?"
"Oh." Was all I could manage to say. I mean
what was I suppose to say? It's not like I was
used to that kind of thing. I've never had to try
and console someone before. But at the same
time I
knew how she felt, to like a guy who didn't
care, didn't feel the same way. I saw the sorrow
in her
eyes and I felt that same emotion within me.
Dorcas attempted to brush it off, "It's okay," I
gave her a skeptical look. "Really it is, it's been
like this for years and I've grown used to it."
Although she sounded confident her eyes
betrayed her anguish.
"Have you ever told him?" I questioned her.
She shook her head before speaking in barely a
whisper, "No..."
I continued to interrogate her, "Why not?"
"You wouldn't understand," she mumbled.
"Try me."
She sighed heavily, "Have you ever liked a guy
so much that when you were apart your heart
just aches, like you were an addict and he was
your drug? But when you were together you
knew you could never truly be together, sure
you could talk, laugh and hang out but you
could never actually be in his arms. Do you
understand how much pain it causes me to love
a guy and never know whether or not he loves
me back?"
I almost wanted to nod my head at her but I
managed to prevent myself from doing so. It
was like Dorcas had been actually speaking on
my behalf, like she had been relaying
everything I truly felt deep down. The strong
feelings I felt
towards Adams that I always hid, I always tried
to avoid and ignore them hoping they would go
away. No matter what Adams did to me, how
much he embarrassed or hurt me the good
memories always seemed to overpower the
bad.
"Then why don't you just tell him how you
feel?" I asked, knowing that it was easier said
than done.
"Because!" She cried out, her eyes began to
swell up with tears. "I'm scared! It hurts so
much thinking that he might not feel the same
way that I
do, just imagining that tears me up inside. Can
you imagine how much more it would hurt if I
knew for sure that he didn't feel the same way?
It would destroy me!"
"But what if he does feel the same way?" I said
as my voice became higher, I was completely
shocked that she had liked Brandon for so long
and still managed to keep it a secret.
"That's not a risk I'm willing to take." She
simply replied.
The sound of the front door opening forced
both Dorcas and I to turn around to see who
the intruder was.
Speak of the devil, I thought to myself as
Brandon's tall and slightly lean body appeared
in the doorway. He walked over to us before
flopping down on the opposite couch as me and
Dorcas. A concerned look flashed across his
face as he noticed Dorcas' slightly watery eyes.
"What's wrong?" He instantly sat up and looked
at her, his face full of concern.
"Nothing." Dorcas lied, "One Tree Hill got to
me again."
If I hadn't truly known what was bugging Dorcas
I would have fallen for her lie as well. For such
a cute, innocent looking girl she was an
accomplished liar! Or maybe it was her cute,
innocent looks that made her such a good liar,
either way the concern that once covered
Brandon's face had vanished and was replaced
with a smug little smirk.
"Awww! You mean I missed One Tree Hill." His
voice was full of sarcasm.
"Damn."
"Oh shut up!" Dorcas rolled her eyes obviously
she caught on to the sarcasm.
"What?" He pretended to act offended jokingly,
"I thought you said it was on at nine o'clock, not
eight!" His voice had a hint of humour in it
clearly teasing Dorcas.
"Honestly Brandon?" Dorcas tried to sound
disappointed in him but her voice had that
same light-heartedness to it. "Every week it's
on at eight and every week I tell you that and
yet every
week you somehow manage to show up an
exact hour after right? Coincidence, I think
not!"
I sat in silence watching Dorcas and Brandon
continuously harass and tease each other. I also
noticed some flirtatious eye rolls and cute
smug
smirks directed towards each other. I couldn't
believe how I never noticed it before, the way
they talked to each other and looked at each
other.
Maybe this afternoon I hadn't really noticed it
because Brandon had been paying so much
attention to me. I thought maybe it was
because he liked me because maybe he had
been
interested in me. It wasn't until now that I
realized he was only being nice to try and cheer
me up. Maybe he just felt bad for what his
brother had done earlier and felt obligated to
make it up to me.
Either way, as I sat there watching Dorcas and
Brandon one thing was for sure; the feelings
Dorcas had towards Brandon were definitely
mutual. I also had a feeling that it wasn't going
to be very much longer before they both
admitted their feelings to each other. Whether
I had to force it out of them or not, it was going
to happen. It was
just plain stupid for them both to be hurting so
much while thinking the other didn't feel the
same way when it was obvious they both
wanted more than a friendship.
"Earth to Jane!" Dorcas' voice came from
behind me which was weird because I swear
she was just sitting beside me only moments
ago.
I turned around to see both Dorcas and
Brandon standing behind the couch staring
down at me
expectantly. "What?" I asked as confusion
covered my face.
Brandon laughed, "Man Jane when you zone
out, you really zone out, Huh?"
I still stared up at them completely confused. I
honestly didn't remember them moving or
even talking to me for that matter. But then
again I was
pretty lost in my own thoughts and Brandon
was right, when I zone out I barely notice
someone standing right in front of me yelling
in my face.
Dorcas rolled her eyes at me while a smiling
laugh appeared on her face. She walked around
the couch, putting her arm through mine and
pulling me up to my feet. "We said were going.
I need to
take off before my Mom gets home, which..." I
followed her eyes to a large clock the hung just
above the T.V, "Should be any time now, so
let's
go!"
At first I was kind of confused as to why we
were leaving before her Mom got home but I
decided not to ask, instead I just followed the
two out of the living room, down the hall and
out the front
door. We were just walking down her front
door steps when a Red Cadillac pulled into the
driveway blocking Dorcas' beetle in.
"Shit..." Both Dorcas and Brandon said under
their breath.
"Well so much for our great escape plan. Now,
presenting the wrath of Mrs. Kindle." Brandon
said looking over at Dorcas and then smiling,
"Have fun, I'm out of here!" He ran down the
stairs and
jumping over the white fence that separated
Dorcas and Brandon's houses.
A tall blonde lady got out of the car; she was
wearing a long black skirt that went just past
her knees with a matching black blouse. Her
hair was pulled back into a perfect bun with
only a few strands of hair that fell gracefully
along her face.
She had a gentle, kind face though there was
something in her eyes that showed she wasn't
very happy at the moment.
"Uh-oh." Dorcas said while grabbing me by the
arm and pulling me with her as she tried to
make a run for it.
"Dorcas Kindle!" Dorcas' Mom's voice echoed
through the air as Dorcas came to an abrupt
stop.
Dorcas turned around while forcing a smile on
her face, "Yah mom?"
"Don't try to act stupid Dorcas Kindle, you know
what this is about!" Her mom finally reached us
as she stood in front of Dorcas - her hands on
her hips, barely even acknowledging my
presence.
"Where were you today after your morning
classes young lady!?" She asked sternly with a
very parental tone.

CHAPTER 14 FOLLOWS IMMEDIATELY

LOSS OF VIRGINITY: AN EARLY MISTAKE

CHAPTER 14

Note: I am using this medium to thank all my nairaland friends following this story fervently... Thanks for encouraging me.
Now to the story

CHAPTER 14

I looked in the mirror and was completely
stunned. I had never imagined in all my life
what
little effort it would take to make me look like
this. I had gotten so used to wearing old baggy
clothes and things that covered my body and
hid
my curves. I hadn't even noticed how much my
body had developed in the last few years.
I was wearing a pair of jeans my auntie had
bought for me last Christmas that I had never
touched before. They were hip hugging skinny
jeans that were very low and just covered my
butt. They were tight against my hips and thighs
making my short legs look long and thin. I wore
a
black belt that matched perfectly with my
figure
hugging black halter top that ended a few
inches
above my navel. The halter top had built in
support for my boobs which made my cleavage
look amazing in the low-cut shirt. I felt like a
supermodel!
I didn't over do the make-up to make me look
like
a street LovePeddler or anything but the light make-
up I
did wear really accentuated my features. The
light
pink blush I wore made my high cheekbones
look
erotic and the deep charcoal eye shadow I had
put on made my light brown eyes pop out. I
wore
no eye liner but I did put on mascara to add
length to my eye lashes. The natural coloured
lipstick I wore somehow managed to make my
lips
look bigger and more Angelina Jolie style but
not
quite as intense.
Then there was my hair - for once it wasn't
poker
straight and covering my face. Instead I had it
in
big waves that flowed perfectly down to my
back.
Framing my face giving me a more confident
look
compared to my usual hiding behind my hair
shy
waif appearance.
It was hard to believe the girl looking back at
me
in the mirror was in fact...me? She didn't
resemble me in any way and yet every move I
made she mimicked. But it was me. It was the
new and improved Jane Anne Raine, the girl
who would not take any bullshit from any guy.
The girl who would show what exactly he
missed
out on. Pay-Back is a bitch.
"Jane! Are you coming or are you planning on
walking to school?" I heard my brother yell at
me
from down the stairs.
"OK, I'm coming!" I yelled back at him as a little
smirk appeared on my face.
"Alright Jane, what is up with the new look?"
Richard asked me as we pulled out of the
driveway.
Ever since I had come down the stairs he had
been staring at me with well, a weird look on
his
face.
"What do you mean?" I tried to play dumb.
"You know what I mean." He said sternly, "You
look like you've come straight out of a playboy
magazine." He shot me an accusing glance.
"Hey!" I gave him an insulted look though I
kind
of took it as a compliment. Most of the girls in
playboy magazines were hot chicks! Mission
accomplished I thought evilly to myself. "I'm
wearing clothes!"
"And they look like they are painted on you -
you
might as well be naked!" He fumed.
"You're just jealous." I tossed my hair in the air
dramatically and grinned at him.
We pulled up to Kevin's house as Richard
began to
laugh and he said sarcastically, "Yah, that's it
Jane, I'm so jealous of my little sister!" And
rolled his eyes and stuck his tongue out at me.
Boys are so immature!
"You will be when you see all the attention I
get."
I said jokingly and he just smiled back.
Kevin walked up to the truck and opened the
passenger side door but instead of just
jumping into the truck like he usually did he
stopped dead
in his tracks as his eyes fell on me. He gasped
and I watched as his eyes widened and his
mouth dropped. Like a typical guy he
recovered with macho man grace and
immediately his eyes were scanning my body
from head to toe. He didn't move at all, just
took it all in. The only sound that escaped his
lips was, "Woah."
I raised my eyebrow at him and said, "You
better
close your mouth before you get your gross
pervert drool all over Richard's truck, I doubt
he'd
appreciate that very much. And by the way if
you
keep looking at me like that I'm going to have
to
charge you a viewing fee for the visual for your
spank bank!" Then I winked and did perfectly
executed hair toss.
Damn, I'm good! I thought to myself.
"Yah dude! What the hell's wrong with you?"
Richard asked as he stared at his friend utterly
appalled at
his display of lewdness.
As if finally realizing what he was doing Kevin
closed his mouth, gave his head a shake and
jumped into the truck. The whole ride from
Kevin's house to school was totally creepy!
Kevin
sat there and just stared at me pretty much the
whole ride to school. We were just pulling up
to
the school when Richard finally noticed Kevin
completely eye-fucking me.
"Hey dude, what is your problem this
morning?"
Richard almost yelled trying to get Kevin's
attention.
Kevin's head snapped up as he looked over at
Richard realizing for the first time where he
was and
who he was with. He cleared his throat,
"Oh...Sorry, it's just..." He looked back over to
me
as his eyes once again scanned my body.
"Damn
Jane, You are looking hot!"
I smiled back at Kevin trying to be seductive
though my brother killed it when he said,
"What
the hell dude? That's my little sister!" And
slapped Kevin upside the head!
"Sorry Man." Kevin put up his hands
defensively,
"but it's true." He said the last part under his
breath before he scrambled out of the truck to
avoid another shot to the head.
I slid over to the passenger's seat and was just
about to jump down as well when suddenly
Kevin
appeared in front of me. "Here, let me help
you."
He offered. He grabbed me by the waist and
pulled me out of the truck and placed me down
on
the ground.
I stared at him a little shocked at first, but
could
you blame me? I honestly was not used to this
kind of attention! And to be honest I got off on
the power! I also knew that with my new look I
had to revamp my personality. I needed to act
more like Tabitha but less like a slut and more
like a tease. A fine line to be sure but one I was
confident I would master. That had been my
plan since I woke up this morning, I was going
to change and take part in the world out there.
No longer would I be that shy girl isolating
herself in her own little bubble.
"My Hero," I said teasingly to Kevin.
"Gag!" My brother joked as he met up with me
and
Kevin at the front of the truck.
I whispered back only loud enough for Richard
to hear me, "You're just jealous." He growled
in
frustration but there was a playful smile on his
face.
"I guess there's no point to stalk him anymore,
huh Jane?" Kevin said pointing over toward the
school.
I looked over at what he was pointing at and
almost lost my ability to stay 'cool' and
'confident'. Adams was walking toward us
forcing
my heart to sink and my body to heat up
nervously. I could hear the rapid thumps inside
my ear as my heart beat faster and faster.
"Hey Jane." Adams called out, "Can we talk?"
His voice made the hair on my neck stand up,
but
in the good way.
I was just about to say something like 'not right
now Adams,' or really anything that would be
deemed stuck-up enough when something
moved
with speed in front of my eyes. I heard a loud
smacking sound that quickly turned into a
crunching noise. It took my eyes a couple
seconds to adjust to everything and my mind to
process what had just happened. Richard was
standing in front of me still shaking with rage,
while Adams laid sprawled on the ground...out
cold!
"Richard!" I yelled while trying to get past him
to
Adams but he held me back. I watched Adams'
eyes slowly open but only one eye seemed to
be
able to complete the task. His right eye was
already beginning to swell shut.
"Take this as a warning Adams Brown, if you
ever
go near my sister again I swear to God a black
eye will be the least of your worries!" Richard
yelled
down to him. His arms were wrapped around
me
holding me back but I had finally stopped
struggling and just stood there watching. Half
the
school had now surrounded us and began to
riot.
What a mob scene! I thought while watching
half
the students staring in shock, while the other
half
were screaming:
'FIGHT, FIGHT, FIGHT!'
"I know...I'm sorry!" Adams yelled out. He was
still laying prone on the ground but had now
pushed himself up with his hands.
"Sorry for what Adams?" RICHARD yelled back.
I couldsee the white hot anger in my brother's
eyes,
"Starting rumours about her around school?
You're apologies mean nothing, just stay the
hell
away from her, got it!?" Richard's breathing was
raspy he was shaking in anger.
"Adams Brown, Jane Rainie!" A loud voice
broke through all the commotion as everyone
turned around to see our principal pushing
through the crowd. Everyone began to scatter,
leaving only me, Richard and Adams standing in
the clearing.
Adams half lying-half sitting on the ground with
a
puffy eye and Richard was standing above him
with
bruised knuckles.
"My office, now!" Mr. Verlock's voice echoed
loudly all around us. His jaw was clenched in
anger as he stared at first my brother and then
Adams. "I don't suspect you had anything to do
with this Miss Jane?" Mr. Verlock asked while
looking over at me. At first he was a little taken
aback by my altered appearance.
"No!" Adams and Richard yelled in unison.
"Fine, you two...go, now!" With that the trio
disappeared leaving me standing in the parking
lot alone, still a bit shaken up.
"Ja-jane?" A voice I had recently gotten quite
accustomed to reached my ears and soothed
me down. I turned to face Dorcas with Brandon
following closely behind her. "Oh my God! It is
you, holy! Look at you. You look hot, you sexy
thang! Love the hair and your-"
"Is it true your bro just knocked mine out?!
That's
crazy! Your brother must be pretty strong I
mean it was would take an elephant to knock
Adams down." Brandon interrupted Dorcas.
"Oh yah! We just saw Kathy and Sheila from
class
and they told us Richard came out of nowhere
and
just smashed Adams in the face!" Dorcas cut in,
her
voice fast and excited like it always was.
Weirdly
enough, Brandon had that same tone to his
voice
as well.
"Yah and Sheila said that Dorcas was lying on
the
ground bawling his eyes out! And-"
Dorcas cut Brandon off again, "And Mr. Verlock
came and tossed kids out of his way!"
"Woah! Okay, calm down you two!" I had to cut
them both off. They were eagerly staring at me
with anticipation. "First of all, yes Trent
punched Adams in the face-I'm pretty sure he's
going to
have an ugly bad black eye, secondly-no, Adams
was not crying and Mr. Verlock did come but he
didn't toss any kids around." I took a breath and
continued. "Two minutes later and already the
truth has been completely distorted!"
Brandon suddenly looked bored and Dorcas
looked
disappointed. "Aww...I think the fake truth was
more fun." Dorcas whined. I laughed at her
before
we began to walk toward the school.
As we walked through the school yard and up to
the front doors I couldn't help but noticed all
the
people that were staring at us. Every single
person we walked by would look at us and then
whisper something to their friends and then
they
would all stare. It was starting to make me feel
uncomfortable. I felt vulnerable and exposed
as I
tried pulling my belly shirt down by the hem to
cover my bare skin. Every time I attempted to
pull
my shirt down it was making the top portion of
my shirt expose more of my cleavage.
Yeah that won't make people stare much! I
rolled
my eyes.
"Why is everyone staring at us?" I whispered to
Dorcas as we walked into the school.
"Us?" Dorcas laughed, "Their not staring at us,
their
staring at you!"
"What-me?" With my new look I banked on that
it
would get Adam's attention but I honestly
didn't
expect this. I was so concerned with getting his
attention and ignoring him, I didn't plan for the
attention from the others.
"Yah, look..." Dorcas pointed at a group of girls
who were looking at us, "The girls are glaring at
you with jealousy. While the boys..." Dorcas
pointed to a group of boys who looked like they
were pushing their chests out. "Are checking
you
out and trying to get your attention."
"They are just embarrassing themselves..." I
said
as I watched a boy try to puff up and wink at
me;
I shuddered.
Yeah that was nice! Ick!
"That is just normal male vs. female behavior,
you may have gone to school here your whole
life
but you might as well be the 'Hot New Girl'."
Dorcas stated.
"Well then why aren't you being a crazy jealous
bitch and why isn't Brandon acting like a
drooling
zombie?" I questioned her.
"Because I know your personality and I know
you
aren't some slutty home wrecker." Dorcas
winked at
me.
"Like Tabitha." We both looked at each other
and
laughed.
"And I'm not a drooling Zombie because I'm
not a
shallow asshole." Brandon said finally jumping
into the conversation. "I will admit Jane, you
do
look really pretty-but looks aren't everything so
don't let all this go to your head."
"She won't!" Dorcas defended me, "But we got
to go
and get ready for class, we'll see you at lunch?"
"Yah for sure!" I replied. Dorcas and Brandon
both
waved bye to me as they headed in the
opposite
direction.
I tried to ignore all the people staring at me as
I
made my way through the school and to my
locker. I was glad to find that the hallway where
my locker was had been pretty much empty,
which wasn't much of a surprise. My locker
wasn't very far from the principal's office and
most students tried to stay as far away from
Mr.
Verlock as possible.
12-32-08, I thought to myself as I began to
unlock my locker. I opened the door and began
to
scrounge around for my books.
"So the rumours are true." An amused
sounding
voice startled me as I look behind my locker
door
and saw Derrek. He was another one of my
brother's friends, one of the guys that hung out
with Richard, Kevin and Adams. Derrek was a
lot
different than them though, he was the captain
of
the football team and the most stuck-up ass
hole
of them all! He was such a prima donna! He
didn't
talk to anyone at school unless you played
football or if you were a cheerleader. He
thought
he was Brad Pitt and wouldn't even waste his
energy with any of the girls at Kersha High.
Every girl throws herself at him and he merely
swooshes them away like an annoying little fly.
So when I closed my locker door and saw
Derrek leaning up against the lockers, his arms
folded against his chest eyeing me up, I was a
bit surprised. He was taller than most of the
guys at school and his muscles bulged out of
anything he wore. He honestly looked like he
was on steroids but everyone knew he wasn't,
he was just so obsessed with himself that he
spend every spare second he had working out.
He had perfect black hair and gorgeous grey
eyes, if it weren't for the fact that he was so
unbelievably huge then he would probably be
less scary and much sexier.
"Well, well, if it isn't Derrek Harley. I'm sorry
but I'm lacking football skills, also I'm not and
never will be a cheerleader so you'd better jet
before anyone sees you talking to me." I said
to him as I opened my locker again and blocked
his view from me.
He laughed loudly as he push my locker shut
and moved in front of it so I couldn't get in. "I
never expected Jane to be so judgmental,
aren't you supposed to be one of those sweet-
n-shy type of girls?"
I rolled my eyes and simply replied, "People
change."
"So I see," I watched him as his eyes began to
survey my body with a half smirk glued to his
face. "Never would have thought Richard's little
sister could look so sexy."
I could feel my face take on the form of
disgust.
"Is there a reason why you're here because if
not could you please move so I can grab my
books and get to class?"
"Feisty, I like it." He then winked at me.
"Eww." I began to turn around but as I did so I
saw Adams coming out of the Principal's office.
Plan A in motion, I thought as I turned back
towards Derrek. "I mean, Oww-la-la?" Okay,
that's sounded stupid but who cares it didn't
really look like Derrek was paying much
attention to what I was saying seeing as he was
too busy staring at my boobs.
"Anyways, I was actually going to invite you to
my party tonight. You can be my 'Special'
guest."
He continued to have his conversation with my
boobs. Again he winked.
Eww, I thought to myself. How do girls see him
as attractive, he is far too muscular and has the
biggest ego! "It's a school night and I know I'm
going to have a lot of homework." I said that
part without thinking; it was the real Jane
coming out.
I heard Adams' footsteps getting closer, "I
mean, yah whatever as long as there's alcohol."
I then flirtatiously ran my hand across Derrek's
chest, "and you."
EW-BARF! Did I say that? I may have to boil my
hand later!
"I'll be there...So you better come Jane, I'll be
waiting for you." With that he moved away
from my locker, grabbed my ass, patted it and
swaggered away.
I felt disgusted and totally violated as I opened
my locker and made gagging noises.
"Hey Adams, wait up man!" I turned around to
see Derrek trying to catch up to Adams.
"Screw off dude!" I heard Adams yell at Derrek
before he disappeared down another hallway.
Well, apparently I made Adams jealous, I
thought to myself, mission accomplished! I
leaned against
my locker, gathered my books slammed my
locker shut and almost skipped to class .

NOTE: This chapter is dedicated to my Mum, who
inspires me always with her great articles and my dad... A Dr of language then to this pulchritude (Bukola), who makes my world go
round and round...
this chapter is more on
Dorcas, Derrek and Brandon so enjoy it...

LOSS OF VIRGINITY: AN EARLY MISTAKE

CHAPTER 15

"What!? Oh my god, seriously? Derrek Harley
invited you to his party...You know it's like a
seniors only party and sometimes maybe one
or
two junior cheerleaders are allowed in but I've
never, ever heard of any sophomores being
invited!" Dorcas rambled on.
Once the lunch bell rang I met Dorcas and
Brandon
in the cafeteria, we found an empty table to sit
at
after getting our food. I told them about the
little
scene with Derrek and my Academy Award
winning performance. Did they give out awards
for
not barfing when touching a slimy guy I
wondered? Dorcas went crazy and began
rapidly
firing questions. I didn't understand any of her
questions because she went supersonic and
only
dogs could hear her. Sheesh! Brandon was
completely uninterested and whipped out a
"Transformers" comic book and ate his lunch. It
takes a brave man to eat spaghetti without
wearing a napkin in his shirt.
"Well, it doesn't really matter. I'm not going." I
replied dryly as I took a fork full of spaghetti
and
shoved it in my mouth. I tried keeping my eyes
on
either my food, Dorcas or Brandon because
anytime
I looked around the cafeteria all I saw were
eyes
staring back at me. It had already been half a
day
and everyone was still acting the same way,
which was either glaring or drooling.
"What!?" Dorcas yelled. If some people weren't
staring at us before they definitely were now.
She
lowered her voice, "You have to go...I mean if
you
do everyone in school will be so jealous of you.
You would be like a Goddess!"
"Yes Dorcas because I really need more
attention." I
said with sarcasm before looking over at
Brandon
for his opinion. Dorcas looked at him too,
although
he seemed so engrossed in his comic book he
didn't even noticed until Dorcas punched him
in the shoulder.
"Ouch-What was that for-" He look up at Dorcas
and then to me. "Oh...Um, well it is a school
night
so-" I saw Dorcas sneakily pinch his arm. "Ouch!
I
mean...Yah Jane, you should go."
I laughed, "Smooth Dorcas...Very smooth."
"Oh...You saw that...Tee-hee" She smiled her
completely innocent but knowingly evil smile.
"Anyways, if I do go-I'm not going alone!" I
finally gave in.
"Of course not! Me and Brandon will come with
you!" Dorcas looked at Brandon and smiled.
"No!" Brandon said while looking at Dorcas and
then looking back at me. "No I'm not." He
looked over at Dorcas again. "You can't make
me!"
~*~
"Yah but there is no reason why I have to go. I
mean I'm sure you and Jane will have so much
fun there. You don't need me...you'll have all
those senior football players to hang off of." I
heard Brandon's faint voice arguing with
Dorcas.
"Yes I do!" Dorcas stated. "Right Jane?! We
need
Brandon with us! It just wouldn't be the same!"
Her voice reached me loud and clear.
I opened the bathroom door and looked into
my
bedroom where Brandon was standing at the
foot
of my bed in front of Dorcas with his arms
folded.
Dorcas was sitting on my bed looking up at him
with a teasingly cute smile plastered to her
face,
which instantly sent a jolt a jealousy through
me.
Even though both Dorcas and Brandon were
completely oblivious to each other's feelings,
the
more we all hung out, the more I saw the
hidden
love between them. It was the kind of love I
longed for, the kind where they needed no one
in
the world but themselves.
"No it wouldn't, you have to come Brandon...or
I'm not going" I said jokingly, even though in
my
mind I was secretly hoping Brandon would back
out and force Dorcas and I to stay home as
well.
"Shush, both of you!" Dorcas jumped to her
feet and
playfully pushed Brandon. "You two are both
going. We are all going to this party tonight
whether you guys like it or not!"
"Since when did you turn into a big party
animal?"
Brandon questioned her.
"Since I realized all of our lives are completely
boring, isolated and full of video games, comic
books, novels and homework. It's time for us to
have fun for once in our lives...thus we are
going
to this party tonight." As Dorcas spoke she had
her
hands on her hips trying desperately to sound
tough and demanding; it was so cute!
"Speak for yourself." I said while rummaging
through my closet praying to the fashion Gods I
would find one dress that wasn't puffy, pink, or
full of cartoon characters. "I don't live a boring
life and even if I did, how would you know, you
just met me."
"Actually Jane, you just met me, I've known
you my whole life." She stated matter of fact,
"and secondly, you've lived sixteen years
without any friends so I'm sorry but there is no
way your life
could have been at all eventful."
"Ugh...Thanks for reminding me what a huge
loner
I am." Suddenly a saw something black at the
far
end of my closet. A dress I hadn't seen or
touched since my Mom gave it to me.
Apparently
it was the dress she had worn out to cock-tail
parties. Once she grew out of it she handed it
down to me though I never imagined I would
ever
wear it.
I felt someone's arms wrap around my
shoulders
as I stood there staring at the dress. "But
you're
not a loner anymore! You have me and
Brandon...and...apparently Derrek too!" Dorcas
said
in my ear, I could hear Brandon in the
background
begin to laugh. DOrcas unwrapped her arms
from
around me as she turned to face Brandon.
"What's
so wrong about Derrek!?"
"What? You mean other than the fact that he
looks
like a giant on the nad juice?"
Brandon tested her, "Well let's see, he is a
complete ass, he treats girls like shit, and he-"
"He sounds just like your brother, but you still
love him." Dorcas fought back.
"Enough you guys!" I cut the argument short as
I
turned around to face them, the black dress in
my
arms. "Nothing is going on with me and Derrek,
okay?"
"Ha-Ha." Brandon taunted as he pointed his
finger at Dorcas and stuck out his tongue.
"Oh grow up Brandon!" Dorcas barked at him as
she walked over to me, "what's that?" she
asked as her eyes scanned the dress in my
arms.
I looked down at the black dress, debating on
whether or not I even wanted to show it to
them. I
knew if Dorcas saw it she would force me to
wear it against my will, yet I did want to wear
it...I think?
I looked up at Dorcas to find her sticking her
tongue out at Brandon with her right hand's
index finger and thumb in an L shape,
obviously standing for 'Loser'.
"Dorcas!" I said while laughing, "You tell
Brandon to grow up and yet you're standing
here doing the same thing."
Brandon started laughing next as Dorcas
turned to
face me with a surprised look on her face. "You
weren't supposed to see me doing that." She
admitted as a smile crept onto her face.
I looked down at my watch, 7:40pm. "Okay, are
you guys ready? If we're going we should really
get a move on." "I'm not...I'll just stay here."
Brandon said as he
sat down on my bed. A large smile crossed his
face, his perfect pearl white teeth shimmering
underneath my bedroom light.
"You wish mister!" Dorcas said while running
over
to the bed and jumping up on it forcing
Brandon to bounce up and down. "We're ready
Jane, are you?"
I held up the little black dress, analyzing it one
more time. "Almost...I just need to put this
on."
~*~
We pulled up to Derrek's house in Brandon's
black SUV and well, the house was packed. We
could barely find a place to park in his overly
large driveway, which actually resembled a
parking lot. Derrek's house was huge, one of
the
biggest in all of McLasgidi, which is another
reason for Derrek's overly conceited attitude.
His
father is the owner and CEO of a multi-national
corporation. His mother is a famous artist,
winner of prestigious awards and whose work
ranges
starting from 10k in price.
The best way to describe Derrek's house would
be that it's a mansion, which is saying a lot
seeing as McLasgidi is more of a rich folk town.
We all grew up with large houses, everything
given to us
and a lack of parental supervision. Though
there are a few exceptions, like my family, my
parents are away on business most of the time
though they have strict rules. They at least
make an effort to parent us when or if they
ever find out we broke a rule.
"No parking, I guess we better just go."
Brandon
said interrupting my thoughts. He tried to
sound
disappointed but I could hear the hope
creeping
in his voice.
"Yah there is! Right there, between the red
Corvette and blue Mustang." Dorcas said
excitingly
pointing her finger eagerly at the empty spot.
Both Brandon and I sighed in disappointment
as
he pulled into the parking spot and turned off
the
engine.
I could hear music blaring from Derrek's house
as
I looked over saw a bunch of seniors from
school
standing on his porch passing around a pretty
large bottle and chugging it straight. Then on
the
steps were more teens passing around what
looked like a bong. The most disturbing sight
was
one kid kneeling in the grass puking while his
friend stood by laughing.
My gut was telling me this was a bad idea and
my
nerves began to act up. "I don't know Dorcas,
maybe we should just leave. I don't think I
want
to wear this dress either so let's just go-"
"No" She cut me off, "Let's just go in there,
have a
couple drinks-loosen up a bit and in an hour if
you guys still want to go...then we'll leave.
Okay?"
"Fine." Brandon agreed.
"Alright..." I replied afterwards.
We all opened our doors slowly manoeuvering
out
of the vehicle while trying not to hit the cars on
each side of the SUV. I turned around to see
my
reflection in the blue mustang's window.
Instantly
I was reminded of Richard's comment about
me looking like I belonged in the play boy
mags. I left my hair in its flowing waves though
I added a
little more to my make-up, changing it from
casual to a more party going look.
Then there was my dress, it was a short skirted
dress with a 'V' shaped halter that pushed my
breasts together. The back of the dress had a
low plunging backless style to it, which left my
whole
back bare. I wore black stiletto's that matched
my dress perfectly and made my legs look
longer. I will admit, the whole outfit was a little
over the
top revealing and maybe a touch swanky but at
the same time it was sexy.
"You have to let me borrow that dress
sometime, I
love it!" Dorcas came from around the vehicle
with
Brandon following behind her.
Dorcas' outfit was a lot more...well, Dora .
Though her dress was shorter than mine and
was
completely strapless, the light pink color of it
made her look cute rather than swanky. That
was
one thing I idolized Dorcas for; she could wear
the
most revealing clothes but still managed to
make
them look cute. I mean who does that? If I'd
worn
her get up I would have been arrested for
indecent exposure!
"You can borrow it right now, I'm going home!"
I
turned around to try and get back into the SUV
when Dorcas grabbed my hand and pulled me
away.
"In your dreams Missy, let's go." She said while
walking toward the house and pulling me
behind
her.
Brandon came to my side as we all walked
across
the huge parking lot styled driveway. "That's
one
thing you're going to have to get use
to...Dorcas'
stubbornness." Brandon spoke with
amusement.
"Or I can just change my mind about becoming
friends with you two and make a run for it." I
joked.
"You wish!" Dorcas joined in.
"Yah, sorry Jane but you're stuck with us now."
Brandon added and I smiled.
Sixteen years I had never had one friend and in
two days I made friends with probably two of
the
best people in McLasgidi. They weren't stuck
up,
they were fun, they didn't care so much what
people thought and I could already tell they
were
the type of friends you could trust with your
life.
