Black Velvet Kisses By Akasha

~Chapter One~

"Misty...Misty! Wake up, it's time for school sleepy head, we don't want to be late again"

Misty's dad opened the door and peered in. She groaned, and looked over at him.

"Yeah, I'm getting up"

Her dad shut the door and left her to herself. She sat up from under the covers and stretched as she looked at her clock. It was 5:15 am. She groaned again, and swung her legs off the bed. She walked across the room to her mirror and stared at her reflection. She was about 5'9, 150 pounds, but she had muscles. Jet black hair covered her face and silver eyes stared back at her. Her head jerked towards her door as someone knocked.

"Who is it?" she asked, walking towards the door.

"Mom" a woman's voice came out from behind the door.

Misty grabbed the door handle and opened it. She stared at a blonde haired woman who was holding a pile of clothes.

"These are for you, hurry up and take your shower" she said before handing Misty the clothes and turning around to head back downstairs.

Misty shut the door.

"Gee thanks...and she wonders why we never talk..." Misty sat her clothes on her dresser and picked out what she was going to wear. She picked out her black chained jeans and a black halter top with the H.I.M symbol in red on it. She went into her dresser drawer and pulled out a black bra, and a black thong. She grabbed her clothes and headed to the bathroom. Her older brother was coming out of the bathroom as she headed towards it.

"Morning Freak" her brother Michael said to her as he passed her.

"Morning Jock" she replied back.

Before he could say anything she was already in the bathroom. She put her clothes down and put a floor mat down in front of the shower, and put two towels on the toilet seat. She stripped off her tank top, her boxers and her underwear and put them in the hamper. She turned the water on and adjusted it before she hit the shower button. She got in and proceeded to take her shower. She always sang in the shower. Everyone told her she had a good voice, but she didn't like to sing in front of other people. She began to belt out 'Missing' by Evanescence as she washed herself. Once she was finished, she stepped out and dried off. She got her clothes on, then adjusted herself. The halter showed off a toned stomach, and the sides of her thong came up above the pants and rested on her hips. Her usual look. She brushed her teeth and gargled, then brushed her hair so it hung down loosely. She picked up the towels and put them in the hamper, then she turned off the light and went back to her room. Her room was like any goth-punk rockers bedroom. She walked to her dresser and put her lip-ring in, and applied black eyeliner and black lipstick, which made her look very pale. She then put on her fishnet gloves and put on her ankle socks and skateboarding shoes. She grabbed her backpack, skateboard and beanie and went downstairs. She walked into the kitchen and popped in some toast. Sitting down while they cooked, she put her beanie on her head and put on her necklaces, and jelly bracelets. When she got up to get her toast, her mother freaked out.

"You're not wearing that to school Misty"

Misty turned around holding her toast and ripped into her mother.

"You haven't cared for 16 years how I dressed so don't start now okay? Just let me live my life the best way that I can"

Misty's mother looked at her father then back to her daughter and just let the argument go. She couldn't take another fight.

Misty walked back over to the table and grabbed her bag and skateboard. She started to head out the door when her brother stopped her.

"I'll give you a ride if you want Mist"

"Thanks Mike, but I'm meeting some friends and we're gonna skate there. Thanks neways"

"We need to talk sometime, okay? Nothing bad, I just need to talk to you" he said, his eyes almost caring.

Misty sensed something and told him they'd talk when she got home tonight. Then she left and hopped on her board. She skateboarded to her boyfriend Jake's house. She knocked on his door and his cheerleader sister answered.

"What do you want loser" she said as she looked Misty up and down.

"Where's your brother plastic?" Misty retorted as Jake walked up behind his sister.

"I'm right here Mist, just let me grab my board" he walked down the hallway to get his stuff, then walked out the door past his sister. She huffed and slammed the door. Jake leaned over to Misty and kissed her on the lips.

"I've missed you..." he whispered against her lips as he kissed her again. Misty returned his kisses with a sharp eagerness. They picked up their boards and walked down his driveway and onto the road. They walked with his arm wrapped around her waist with his hand in her front pocket, and she was the same with him. They were truly in love with each other. They were joined by the rest of their crew. Misty had grown up with almost everyone in their crew. Kellie and Chad she had known since 1st grade, Marc, Holly and Aaron she had known since Junior High. And Zander was new. He had become friends with her in their junior year, but he was cool. They all walked down to the Synx, a hidden glade in the forest near their school, and got comfy. They had almost an hour before they had to be in class. Misty and Jake sat on a log, where Jake kept pulling on the thong straps that were showing. Marc reached into his bag and pulled out some weed.

"Who wants some wacky weed before we go to the prison and learn" Marc made a stupid face that made everyone laughed. Marc pulled out his pipe and fixed it up. He took a hit and passed it to Chad, who took a hit then passed it to Kellie, then to Aaron, Holly and Jake. Jake took a big hit, then passed it to Misty. Misty looked at it, then decided what the hell and took a big hit too. After it was passed a few more times around, they were stoned off their asses. Misty looked up at Jake and kissed him.

"I don't think we're going to make it to first period babe," Misty tried to stand up but fell back down on her butt.

"I think I'll just stay here for a while" Misty layed her head on Jake's shoulder and looked around at her friends. They were all just sitting there, doing nothing. Marc stood up and made everyone else stand up as well. They were all coming off their high. Misty grabbed Jake's hand and they walked out of the glade together. They walked ahead of everyone else and started to talk.

"So I was thinking that tonight after school we could have a band practice, since Battle of the Bands is in four months" Jake squeezed Misty's side in a playful manner.

"Yeah, I'm game for that," Misty said, then turned around and hollered to the rest of the group, "band practice at Jake's house tonight!"

"BATTLE OF THE BANDS HERE WE COME!" they all yelled.

They all went into the school and went to their first period classes. It was going to be a long day.
