Massie

Massie finished curling the last piece of her hair and knew that she was going to look amazing for Derrick's party today.

She walked over to her full-length mirror to examine herself. Her short, purple dress was wrinkle free, her hair was in perfect spiral curls, and her make-up was done perfectly. No one was here to tell her but she knew that she was a perfect ten.

Once she was done admiring herself in the mirror, she began packing her over-night bag for Derrick's house. Since Derrick's parents were away for the weekend, Massie was staying the night at Derricks. It was her first sleepover with Derrick without his parents being there with them. Not even Sammy was going to be there.

"Can I come in?" Massie's mother stood at the doorway with packed bags and suitcases. She was leaving on a "work trip" again this week.

"Yes, I'm staying over at Alicia's tonight." Massie didn't look over at her mother. She was good at lying but she didn't always like too.

"That's okay, I'm heading out to California." Massie's mom didn't look at Massie when she talked either. Could her mother be lying to her? Massie and her mom didn't have the best relationship, but has it really come to lying to each other.

"Have fun." Massie stuffed more clothes in her bag.

"It's a work trip, honey." Massie's mom tried to force a laugh. "I don't think it's supposed to be fun."

Massie's mom had a work trip every six months exactly. It was a little strange, but Massie didn't bother confronting her mother about it. It wasn't worth all of the awkward silences.

"Okay, bye." Massie threw her bag over her shoulder. She was already an hour late for the party.

"I will be back in a week." Massie's mom stood there for a moment.

There was an awkward silence and Massie knew this was the moment that they would hug goodbye. Instead of hugging, Kendra smiled slightly and left the room.

What happened to her family?

"Mass, you're finally here!" Alicia said right when Massie walked through the door. She could barely hear her over the blaring music.

Alicia looked perfect in her red strapless shirt and jean shorts. She had the perfect amount of jewelry on and her long black hair was straightened. Alicia always had a way of coming off sexy and very classy at the same time. It was a hard thing to do but Alicia did it very well.

"Follow me." Massie started walking up the stairs. She had to drop off her bag in Derrick's room. "Remember that you're covering for me tonight."

"Yeah about that…"Alicia started.

"What?" Massie opened the door to Derrick's room.

"I'm staying over at Harris's house after the party so I told my mom I was staying with you." Alicia explained. "It's not like they call each other so were good."

"Wait, I thought you and Harris were done." Massie asked. She instantly thought of Sammy.

"I know, but yesterday he came over and told me that he can't picture himself dating a different girl." Alicia mumbled. She knew that Massie didn't like Harris at all.

Massie stood there in silence. She kept thinking about if she should tell Sammy or not. Alicia and Sammy were both like the sisters that she never had. She couldn't have them fighting over a jerk like Harris Fisher. She certainly couldn't choose sides.

"Alright, I called him." Alicia admitted. "I just missed him so much."

"That's where he was." Massie said to herself.

"What?"

"He had a date with Sammy, but he ditched her." Massie paused for a moment. Everything was starting to make sense. "He ditched her to go and see you."

Alicia bit down on her bottom lip. "I didn't know."

"You know every move Harris makes!" Massie could sense that she was being lied to again and she wasn't going to stand for it anymore. "You told him to ditch her."

"I didn't tell him too." Alicia said in a high-pitched voice.

"Do you know how upset she was?" Massie looked straight into Alicia dark, brown eyes. "She waited outside for three hours."

"I cried myself to sleep for three whole weeks because of him." Alicia spat back.

"This isn't a pity competition." Massie threw her bag on Derrick's bed. Derrick's short temper was starting to rub off on her.

"Yeah and if it was, you and your perfect life would lose." Alicia started yelling.

"You think my life is perfect." Massie whispered, almost laughing at her. "You have no idea."

"Your perfect family, perfect boyfriend, everyone loves you at school." Alicia laughed. "Such a terrible life."

"I can't believe I thought we were best friends." Massie ran her fingers through her spiral curls. Alicia knew nothing about her.

Massie's life was anything but perfect. It just seemed perfect to everyone at school because that's the way Massie made it seem. She wanted people to think that she had a great life with a perfect boyfriend, tons of friends and a perfect family. She did not want anyone to see any mistakes, only perfection.

"I don't think we ever were." Alicia ripped off her bracelet from her wrist and left the room.

A few tears escaped Massie's eyes when Alicia left. She bent down to pick up the bracelet that Alicia threw on the ground. It was their friendship bracelet that they gave each other in sixth grade. It was supposed to symbolize a never-ending friendship.

Massie wiped the tears from her eyes and placed Alicia's bracelet in her bag. She couldn't cry on Derrick's birthday. There was no reason to cry anyway because Alicia would call and apologize the next morning. Everything would be okay.

Massie started to walk down the steps and the loud music filled her ears. She looked around the rooms and tired to find Derrick. She saw Dylan Marvil drunk and dancing on the table while the boys cheered her on. Her ex-boyfriend Chris Polvert stood across the room staring at her. He wasn't talking to anyone so Massie decided to walk over to him.

"Hey, Chris." Massie was one of the few people who called him by his first name. Everyone else called him Polvert.

"Hi Massie, I haven't seen you since Dylan's pool party." Chris said then took a drink of his beer.

Last week was Dylan's pool party and during the party, Chris and Dylan broke up, but no one really knew why. Not even Alicia and she knew everything that happened in Westchester.

"Yeah, I know." Massie really didn't know what to say. He looked heartbroken. Maybe talking to him wasn't such a good idea after all.

"Sometimes people break up with each other for the stupidest reasons." Chris took another drink of beer. He was going to get as drunk as Dylan.

"If it's a stupid reason then why don't you just make-up." Massie asked.

"It's not that easy." Chris took another glance at Dylan who was now making out with Josh Hotz. He looked away quickly. "One stupid reason causes a stupid mistake and then that stupid mistake causes everything to fall apart."

"Wow." Massie was impressed. Class clown Chris was actually very insightful when he was drunk.

"Don't ever do something for a stupid reason." Chris stared at Dylan. "You might not think it's stupid but it is."

"I will remember that."

Chris didn't say anything after that. He just continued staring at his ex-girlfriend and drinking his beer. Chris used to be the funniest kid in class. The kid was always smiling and laughing. Massie never thought that she could see him sad, especially at one of his best friend's birthday party.

Massie began greeting everyone at the party and searching for Derrick as she walked through the huge masses of people. There was no way that Derrick could fit any more people in this house. It was completely insane.

It looked like everyone person in their class was here. Plus the entire soccer team and some of the people who graduated were here too. Some were drunk and some were completely sober. She hoped that Derrick wasn't drinking if she was going to spend the night with him.

She finally found Derrick standing with a bunch of guys from the soccer team. He was one of the only people not holding a beer in their hands. Well, besides Cam Fisher but that wasn't a big surprise. He wasn't going to drink until he turned twenty-one and maybe not even then.

"It's about time you showed up." Derrick walked over to Massie and wrapped his arms around her waist.

"You're lucky I showed up at all." Massie smiled, jokingly.

"Did you put your stuff in my room?" Derrick whispered in her ear. His minty breath tickled her ear.

"Done."

Derrick bent down and kissed Massie's glossed lips. He grabbed her hand and they started walking around the party talking to everyone and dancing. Massie soon forgot about her mother and her fight with Alicia. Derrick made all her problems go away.

Around two in the morning, the party finally started to wind down. The teens started leaving and everyone complimented Derrick on another awesome party. After another hour, everyone was gone. The house was completely trashed, but the trash symbolized a great party.

"Should we start cleaning?" Massie looked around the house.

"Let's just wait until tomorrow." Derrick groaned. He hated cleaning more than anything.

"Fine," Massie sighed. She hated leaving a mess just sitting there.

Derrick and Massie were two different people but somehow they clicked. It must be true, opposites do attract.

"So, you never gave me my birthday present." Derrick lifted Massie up and sat her down on the kitchen counter.

"You want your present now?" Massie smiled slightly. She wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him in for a kiss.

"Yes," Derrick was inches away from her face.

"Follow me." Massie hopped off the counter and headed upstairs. She swayed her hips back and forth seductively. Derrick quickly followed her with a huge grin plastered on his face.

They reached Derrick's room and Massie closed the door. She pushed Derrick down on his bed and he smiled. He knew what was coming next.

Massie ripped off her dress to revel her black lace bra and matching thong.

"Happy Birthday Derrick."
