Sorry for not updating this story for a while. I was planning on it back on Thursday but I ended up straining my neck when I woke up from a nap. So I have been taking it easy the past couple of days and it is now feeling a lot better. But enough about me, it's time to get back to the story. So enjoy.
DEVIL'S NIGHT
Chapter Two
Connecticut, Present Day
Afternoon classes had let out on one October Thursday.
One particular student left her last class for the day. As the fall wind picked up, she brushed back her brunette hair out her eyes and reached into her backpack to grab her cell phone.
Stephanie McMahon was glad that classes were over for the week and she could enjoy the weekend.
Her father told her it was a good idea for her and her girlfriends to spend the weekend at the McMahon family cabin in the woods. So tonight, her and a couple other friends were going to have a little get-together before they leave.
As she walked to the shuttle bus to take her back to the dorm where they all lived at, she flipped open her cell phone and searched through the phonebook for the one name she was looking for.
With one press of a button, she dialed the number.
Back at the complex, Paul Levesque sat on his bed, reading his Spanish book when the phone on his night stand started ringing.
He closed the book and answered the phone. "Hello?"
"Hey Paul," came Stephanie's voice.
Paul smiled. "Hey baby, what's up? Just get out of class?"
"Yep," she said with a smile. "And now I'm walking to the shuttle to get back."
"So, was class interesting?"
"Ugh, not exactly" Stephanie groaned. "The professor rambled on and on about something that I can't even remember. Nearly put me to sleep."
Paul chuckled, "Poor you."
"Yes, poor me."
"Well don't sweat it Steph. The week is over and done with and you're going to have a blast this weekend."
Stephanie flipped her hair back as she approached the shuttle area. "Not to mention having a nice send-off with my boyfriend too."
"That too," he grinned.
"Well, I'm almost to the shuttle so I'll be hanging up soon. I'll remember to go by and pick up Stacy and Trish before coming to your room."
Paul nodded, "Cool. I'll do the same thing with Chris and Randy and we'll rendezvous at around 7:00."
"Sounds like a plan, man," she giggled. "So I'll drop off all my books and supplies and then I'll take a nice hot shower."
Paul groaned at the mental image of that.
"You like that, huh?"she grinned.
"Oh yeah."
Stephanie was about to step on the bus. "Well, I'm going to hang up now. I'll see you later tonight. I love you."
"I love you too. Bye."
"Bye."
With that, the couple hung up on each other. Stephanie stepped on the bus and rode it back, while Paul went back to reading his Spanish book.
Meanwhile, two guys walked into the room they shared together after a long grueling day of class.
These two men were Chris Irvine and Randy Orton: friends, classmates and roommates.
"How could Professor Rodriguez gives us a pop quiz?" Chris asked. "On Thursday too, man. He knew we didn't have time to read the entire chapter."
"It doesn't matter," Randy responded. "It was a shitty week, thus was destined to end with a shitty quiz."
Chris nodded as he placed his backpack on his bed. "Yeah well at least the week is over with. That's the one thing I love about college, man. Practically no class on Fridays."
"Exactly," Randy said as he too placed his backpack on his bed. "Hey, you want to head down to the game room and play some pool? You know, something to help us unwind from a hard day?"
"You go ahead and I'll meet you down there. I need to check my e-mail real quick."
"Alright dude, I'll save us a table," Randy said. "See you in a bit."
Randy left the room, leaving Chris alone as he turned on his computer.
In another room, a young blonde entered her room, having finished her classes for the afternoon.
"Stacy, I'm back!" Trish Stratigias called out to her roommate. "Are you here?"
"I'm in the bathroom."
"Okay," Trish called out as she dropped her backpack on her bed and started taking out all her school supplies.
Just as she finished, Stacy Keibler stepped out. "How was class, Trish?"
Trish groaned, "Don't ask."
"That bad, huh?" Stacy asked.
The other blonde collapsed on her bed.
"It certainly didn't help that I had to wake up early this morning for my first class, only to kill four hours before my next class."
"Well, the week is over with now." Stacy sat down on the bed with Trish.
"So we're going to Paul's room at 7:00, right?" Trish asked.
"That's correct," Stacy slowly grinned. "And if I have a lot to drink tonight, I just might bring Randy here and we might have some fun if you know what I mean."
"Down girl," Trish said. "If that is the case, then me and Chris can go back to his room."
Finally, 7:00 came around as all six friends hung out in Paul's room.
These six friends all met in college, with the exception of Trish, Steph and Paul, who all went to the same high school, where Paul and Steph started dating.
When Trish was moving in her freshmen year, she met her roommate, Stacy. The two instantly became friends. Stacy also immediately hit it off with Steph and Paul as well.
A couple of months later, Trish met and started dating Chris. As she did so, she became friends with Randy. On one of their dates, both Trish and Chris noticed their roommates were single, so they decided to hook them up. When they introduced them to each other, it worked like a charm.
That was how these six became friends.
Currently, they were having a small get-together before the girls leave for Stephanie's fathers' cabin. They had pizza and beer, watched DVDs and listened to music.
"So tell us about this cabin again, Steph," Randy said as he munched on his pizza slice and drank his beer.
Stephanie shrugged, "What's there to really tell? It's a cabin out near the woods. Really beautiful, especially in the fall and winter. It's going to be fun for us girls."
"Sounds like fun," said Paul with his arms around Stephanie as they were sitting in the recliner.
"Well I can hardly wait. It will be nice to have a girl's weekend out and not having to worry about school and such," Stacy said. "I haven't done something like this since I was 14."
Chris asked, "Hey Stace, want to hand me another slice of pepperoni?"
Stacy shook her head with a grin as she did so. "Lazy."
"He can be lazy all he wants," said Trish as she kissed him on the cheek.
Chris smiled at his girlfriend. "Thanks babe."
"But aren't you worried about something spooky happening while you girls are there?" Paul asked.
"What do you mean by that?" said Stacy.
"The Undertaker and all that jazz," said Paul.
"Paul," Trish commented. "Everyone knows that's just an urban legend."
"You sure about that?" asked Paul.
Stephanie placed her hands on her hip. "Paul Michael Levesque, don't even think about scaring us with that."
"Alright, just thought I would put it out there, you know?"
No more was said about the Undertaker that night.
Instead, the six friends continued to party.
TO BE CONTINUED
And that takes care of that. I know it's not that exciting of an installment, but this was more of an introduction to the main characters. Don't worry as the plot will thicken and the suspense will rise in future installments.
So go on ahead and send in your reviews as they are greatly appreciated. Peace!
