CHAPTER TEN

Parties And Problems

Maka pov: I pulled Luna from the backseat pecking her cheek, making my way to the front door of Anri's house. Before Chase could knock on the door Anri flung it open her eyes narrowed.

"What the hell have you been doing all this time!? Everyone we know is more than likely going to show up at this party." Anri yelled jabbing Chase and Maka in the chest. Looking her friend up and down Maka burst out laughing.

"Your one to talk sweet cheeks. Maybe you should have fixed your hair and clothes." She gasped loudly looking down at herself, slamming the door in our faces.

"We'll that was rude." Maka snickered trying to laugh quietly into her hand reliving her friend's reaction. When the door re-opened An was joined with a smirking Checker.

"Bro don't tell me you hit that already?" Chase blurted high fiving his brother. An and I made eye contact, lifting our hands and smacking them both on the head.

"Watch it." Anri sneered storming off to her room. I shook my head handing Lulu over to her brother chase. I wrapped my thin hand around the door knob, watching checker walk to his awaiting car. I turned back to Chase and Lulu smiling softly.

"So what are you and this little cutie planning on doing later?" She grinned brushing her finger against the cheek of Lulu. She squealed, curling in to her laughing brother.

"Anyway. This little butt will finish her homework, take a bath and her medicine before heading off to bed since we have a busy day at the hospital tomorrow. Don't we Luna?" The little girl in question frowned deeply shaking her head no. Sighing deeply Maka kissed them both and shut the door. Walking down the hallway she entered Ann's room groaning loudly.

"Awww C'mon Ann this is too mu-

"SHUT! The fuck up!" She growled shoving a bag in my hand.

"Toothpaste, Rag, Shampoo, Soap, Listerine all the essentials to get ready. We only have an hour for hair, a outfit, shoes and your face now get out and go wash up!" Anri yelled turning to face Maka again. Maka cringed in response slowly raising her hands in surrender.

"A-Ann I think you should take a breather and what no-

"I'LL GET RE-DRESSED AGAIN NOW SHUT UP!" Maka glared at her for a moment before deciding to hit her. She raised her arm, reeling her arm back and swinging it towards Ann's face just as she turned around. She leaned over her friend realizing she had mistakenly knocked her out. Biting her lip Maka high tailed it out of Ann's room to clean up. Maybe she'd forget about what happened.

Chase pov: I frowned at the house that held my girlfriend and buckled Lulu in. She decided to give me a hard time, biting and scratching at my hands.

"Lulu stop!" I yelled growing agitated. She grew more hostile after that, pulling at my hair and clawing at my face. I yelled in pain smacking her palms with a wooden brush. She stopped after that staring up at me.

"Now what did I say?! Stop it." He huffed throwing the brush in her bag. He moved to close the door ignoring her wails. Ann's neighbors eyed him from their front porch, receiving his dirty look in retaliation. He slid into the front seat of the car ignoring his brothers scolding.

"You shouldn't hit her! You know her condition bruises her enough!" Checker shouted shaking up a water bottle of cool aide. Glaring at Chase he handing it back to her, effectively cutting off her cries. Checker got out the car as they made it home, pulling her from the backseat into his arms. He placed her on his hip, brushing her hair out of her eyes.

"She deserves it. Just because someone maybe sick, it still doesn't justify their behavior." Chase frowned, opening the front door.

"Just shut up. You're always preaching about something. Don't even bother coming near her." Checker snapped storming to her room.

"Whatever!" Chase shot back, running up the third level of the home, where his room resided. He knew he'd be punished for touching his sister. He knew she was sick but he also felt like his parents thought that her and checker where the golden children. Lying down in his warm bed with a huff, chase sent Maka one last text explaining everything before turning it off. He stuck his hand under his bed, pulling out a small box, pilling all his games and electronics into it. With a heavy grumble he dragged his feet across the ground, making his way to his room. He dreaded the moment they found out. His father would force him into the basement. That was his father's rule. If you want to act disorderly against a woman then I'll fight you like the "big man" you thought you were when you touched her. I groaned just thinking about the hours to come, being stuck in the basement getting beat. This was the seventh time lulu acted out and I retaliated with hitting. Checker was bound to show them every recording and every incident. Great...just great...Fuck my life...

Anri pov: What the...? So many questions ran through my head when I woke up to find DarkMoon towering over me. I grabbed my head glaring at him as I tried to stand up, wobbling around in my heels.

"Drunk already huh?" I rolled my eyes at him, reaching over to shake Maka up. Instead of waking me up from whatever happened to me she went to sleep in my damn bed. I turned around to stare at my mirror pouting.

"Who slapped me...?" I wheezed rubbing at my bruising cheek. I shook my head and ordered Maka to sit down, setting up hair supplies. Picking up a large comb and running it through her knotted hair, I eyed my brother

"What do you want?" I hissed, reaching over for the scissors to clip her ends.

"Mom ordered me to drive you there and pick you up." He stated dryly as if it was the most obvious thing in the world. I cursed in irritation kicking him out the room. I faced my mirror, hurriedly fixing my makeup, leather crop top, skirt and twisting my hat back on my head. I yawned quietly grabbing the Listerine I offered Maka swishing it around my mouth, while straighten her hair. While I did this I thought of what she could wear. I knew for a fact she would never go for my kind of attire but I wanted to make it close enough. Spitting into my sink, I re-entered my room bending over in front of her. Her face twisted up when I did so.

"What's wrong?" I mumbled focusing on the wings I began creating over her lids. She smiled at me and said nothing. I sighed deeply putting away my liquid eyeliner, reaching for some mascara.

"You're thinking about Soul aren't you." She replied with a small "yes" knowing better than to nod or move her head. I frowned not knowing how to reply right away, so I tugged at a few locks of her hair turning them into thicker bangs. I smiled and stepped back.

"Maka your hair grew so much." I giggled into my palm at her bewildered expression applying a light glow of lip gloss over her lips. I walked over to my bed picking up a tight blue number. I ordered her to close her eyes not in the mood to hear her mouth. I just wanted to get this over with and show her, her potential. I grinned at her lacy bra and panties helping her stand in the dress. I tugged it up over her body stepping back to observe. She was dressed in an aqua colored halter too\P dress, slits revealing her creamy sides.

"Outstanding. You'll look even better in school." I kissed her cheek adding a golden necklace to her look. I slipped her some black pumps over her dainty feet, clasping the locks around her ankles. I tossed her a short leather jacket leaving my room in a rush. I handed her, her things in a black clutch walking down the stairs.

I approached Dark ever so slowly while he chatted with his friends. I stepped over there duffle bags, letting my skirt rise higher up my thighs as I stood in front of the TV. It grew silent and I smiled throwing Maka a look. She walked forward leaning against the side of the couch, positioning her legs just right to make them look longer. She lifted her head of blonde waves blinking slowly as she grinned, showing off what cleavage she had. It was enough though especially with the bottom she was sporting. Dark and Stars friends practically drooled over the two girls, looking back and forth.

"So who's the blonde hair bitch?" Ann and Maka froze turning around to stare at Atticus. They both gave audible groans staring at Dark. He chuckled darkly standing up.

"She's my friends date to the party, so chill." He commented walking to the door. Ann shook her head strutting passed Atticus, making her way upstairs. Once there she banged on her father and mothers bedroom door knowing they'd be too tired to argue.

"Dada can I have your car keys? Dark has mommas." Ann pouted swinging back and forth on her heels. He sighed tiredly readjusting the large book in his hands.

"You wreck my car, that's half of your allowance and any other privileges taken away." Ann squealed reaching for his keys, but he snatched them away.

"For a year total." Her mood seemed to die, when she was brought back to reality when she remembered how stern and strict he was.

"Y-yes daddy I understand." He nodded and dropped the keys in to her awaiting hands.

"Be safe out there knuckle head." He smiled shutting the door. She walked back downstairs and into the living room.

"Looks like princesses don't always get there way." Dark teased staring at her. Ann looked at him in confusion holding up the keys to her dad's hummer.

"Idiots." She sneered pushing through the bodies in her way, grabbing Maka's hand.

"Hey! But-

Ann turned around on her heels, putting her hands on her hips, animatedly rolling her neck.

"We are taken mutha fucka." Maka cringed at her terrible way of pronouncing her words, making her way to the car in a rush.

Maka pov: It was starting to get cold. I rubbed my forehead feeling myself start to have a headache. I sat there staring out the window at Ann wishing she would hurry up, so when I finally got tired of shivering and the headache it was giving me, I honked the horn twice. She stopped talking to Atticus about whatever and climbed in the car.

"Ohohoooo." She cooed unlocking the door for three boys as they climbed in the back.

"Burrrrr it's cold as hell." She shivered blasting the heat, pulling out the drive way. I ignored her and the loud boys, deciding to just stare out the window and before I knew it I was fast asleep drool and all. Right now I think I wanted to lie in bed more than anything.

((Maka pov still)) "Maka! Maka! Wake up sweetie." Anri cooed kindly. I opened my eyes begrudgingly, getting out the car.

"Annie I wanna go home." I pouted wrapping my arms around her neck, walking lopsided to the front door, hanging off her body.

"No. You gatta stay here with me." I sighed deeply thinking about the sweet aroma of warmth a bed would give me.

"I'm getting you a screaming orgasm as soon as I hit the bar, so you can wake up for this drama." She scolded pushing me on the couch nearest to the door. I let my head roll around lazily to view the scene around. There were a few things that pertained to the usual cliché of things except the raging orgy clearly occurring in a not-so-dim corner of the room. I shivered from the image, facing another half of the room to see a fight occurring. A few actually. I let out a short yawn leaning my head to the side, to stare at my hair and attire. Annie did an amazing job but I would never tell her that. She would go nuts...again.

"So Where's your boyfriend"? I jumped at the sound of the scratchy yet husky voice in my ear, turning at a angle to stare into the drunken green eyes of Soul Evans.

Shit...I was screwed now.
