Hey guys, SKG in the building.

This idea was inspired by a random thought I had. So I am just gonna roll with it.

enjoy

Laney's POV:

"I don't know about this core." I say skeptically.

"Come on Lanes! We all have to go!" Corey said with his eyes pleading.

Corey and the guys wanted me to go with them to this party they were invited to.

"It will be our first real party! We can't leave you out. Come on?" Kon begged with his puppy dog pout.

I eventually gave in, I couldn't say no to these boneheads.

We were all freshman in high school at this point. In a way, it meant that we weren't just a kid band, which meant we were getting more respect. It also meant we also got a little looser with our vocabulary. We also all changed in a way. Kin got a bit taller and was working on a ponytail despite my warning. He was no longer a string bean, but was by no means buff. He was just growing up. Kon grew four inches and was practically towering over us. He was still a bit chubby, but he trimmed down a bit, and was now more muscular-fat. Corey also changed, he was also taller, he let his blue hair grow a bit longer, but it was mostly covered by his hat. He began hitting the gym after reading an article about How the Frontman were the eye candy of the group. His results were starting to show. As for me, I guess I had some changes, I grew a little bit taller. I let my hair get a bit longer. I guess my but got a bit bigger. The biggest change was actually... my boobs, but thanks to the magic of bras, I bought a bunch that help reduce. I wasn't really interested in having guys ogling my chest. But I guess I made one major internal change. I wasn't so hung up on Corey as I once was.

After a while, It finally sunk in that we were only meant to be friends. While I still dig him, I am doing my best to let go. I mean, it is only a matter of time before some bimbo sweet talks Corey into dating her. Corey has been kind of oblivious to girls in general. To put it bluntly, he is as denser than anything found on earth.

So he hasn't been in love, or has even been on a real date, (I'm not counting the fake date for the cake).

I sigh.

"Alright, you got me, I will go. Just promise me if things get nuts, we are out of there." I say in a firm tone.

The three boys looked at each other and nodded.

"We swear."

I smile a bit.

"Alright, so where is this party?" I asked curiously.

Corey looked at me and smiled.

"At the abandon house on Elmer ave."

"Let me guess, there is gonna be a lot of..." I say before being interrupted.

"Booze? Yeah." Kin answered plainly.

"Guys? You have never even had a beer before!" I say sternly.

"Then why don't we appoint one of us to stay sober? That way we can get out if things get sour." Kon suggested. Kin and Corey sighed at the idea.

"I agree. And since I know you guys want to have fun. I will stay sober." I say calmly. I know those guys want to have fun.

Corey smiled and picked me of the ground.

"You are the best Lanes!" He exclaimed, causing my face to burn red.

He then dropped me on my butt.

"Alright guys, let's go."

(To the party transition)

So we reach the party around 9:30.

It was at full swing. The place was booming. The place reeked of booze and pot. It was a mix of all types of people. The ones who were drunk dancing, the ones who were drunk on the floor, the drunk ones who were drinking more, etc.

"Alright guys let's go!" Corey announced as we fanned out.

I looked around the party scene and just shrugged. The lower level was full of drunk teens grinding, the upper level, was filled with Moaning and sound of grunts. It was pretty obvious what was happening up there.

Since I didn't want to do either. I found a couch in an area downstairs where it seemed more calm. I sat down on the red couch and relaxed.

I told myself to wait about 20 minutes before checking up on the guys. I would give them time to mingle, I guess I was like a mother hen. As I relaxed I couldn't help but think of a drunk Corey being taken advantage of by some stupid bitch. I pushed the thought away. So what If he did go upstairs, that is his business not mine. I sighed as I looked to see a brown haired guy walking towards me.

"Hi, is this spot taken?" He asked politely. The guy looked around 17, he was tall, broad shouldered, overall pretty attractive.

"It's a free country." I say casually.

He chuckled a bit before sitting down.

"The name is Sam, and you are?" Sam Asked curiously.

"Laney." I say nicely as I extend my hand for a hand shake.

He takes my hand and kisses it like a gentleman does for a regal lady in the movie.

"I can't help but wonder, what kind of guy leaves such a beautiful lady by herself?" He said flirtatiously.

I was certain he was trying to get with me.

"I came here with some friends. Speaking of which, I should probably go find them." I say getting up to leave. But Sam catches my hand.

"What's the rush? We barely got started talking?" He said slightly forceful.

"I am going to find my friends. Now let go." I say coldly as I tried to move my hand free but he had a good grip.

"They can wait a few minutes." He said coldly as he used his hand to slammed me back into the couch. I banged the back of my head on the wall behind the couch. Causing my vision to blur.

"Let go of me!" I yelled as I tried to move.

"After we get to know each other." He said forcefully.

He looked ready to rip my shirt, but suddenly, something tapped his back.

Sam quickly turned around, and I heard the sound of a clean punch. Then I felt the grip loosen and I moved.

I got up, my vision began to clear allowing me to see that Sam was out like a light.

I looked to see who saved my life.

I rubbed my eyes and saw that it was Corey.

"Corey? You saved me?" I said happy and confused. I thought he would be on the other side of the house with some sluts or something. I guess he really cared.

I looked at Corey and saw that he was swaying a bit. Corey was wasted.

Corey looked at me and smiled. He than put his hand on my cheek.

"Of Course Lanes. Like I would let anyone touch you." He said with a drunk smile.

"Maybe we should get the others." I say as I tried to hide the blush that his touch gave me. I quickly move his hand off my face.

Damn it Laney! You told yourself to get over him. But then he saves your life and now he is just so hot. I mentally slap myself. I had to focus.

Corey looked saddened.

"You look really blurry lanes." He said before stoping an inch away from my face.

"Much better." He said with a goofy smile. "Now I can see your pretty face."

I felt my face turn as red as my hair.

Did he just say pretty? No, it's just the beer goggles. Beer googles can make any girl you see look hot no matter how ugly.

I decide to ignore it. I grab his hand.

"Come on, let's just find the others." I say as I pull him forward.

Corey laughs a bit but follows.

We found kin and Kon on the dance floor. Kin was doing a sick break dance, litterally sick, he was puking everywhere. Kon was doing a keg stand. He chugged the whole thing. The guy was a beast. I don't know how, but I managed to lead the twins home to the house with ease. Kon carried the sickly Kin up the stairs before saying goodnight. Kon acted like the beer didn't even faze him. That left Corey and I alone.

"Alright Core, now I'm going to drop you off." I say to the drunken Riffen.

As we finally get to his garage.

"Alright Core, good night." I say sweetly.

I was just about to leave. But Corey grabbed my shoulder.

"Do you have to leave right now?" He asked with his puppy dog pout.

"It's almost 11, I have to get home. I will see you tomorrow okay? I really appreciate you saving me back there Corey. You are really a ..." I say before being shushed

"Uh Core? Why did you..," I say before being shushed again

"I .. I just want to savor the moment." Corey said with a drunk smile.

"Savor the moment? You really are dr..." I say before being shushed again. But this time not by his finger, but by his lips.

Cliffhanger.

Corey really is more fun drunk.

I would have to say.

Please review, tell me what you guys thought and if you want a continuation of this story.

I'm SKG and I'm out.
