"YOU'RE A LITTLE WHORE!" Rachel yelled over to Massie who was being held back my Alicia.
Massie was about to say something, but Alicia cut her off. "Mass, don't say anything. Just shake it off"
"AND FOR YOU!" Rachel turned her attention to Derek. "WE ARE OVER! I HATE YOU" Rachel grabbed her stuff and ran off crying. No one said anything for awhile.
"Thank god she's gone" Josh said; which everyone laughed at. Josh walked over to Massie.
"You okay?" Josh whispered to Massie. She nodded slowly. "I think you need a drink" Josh walked off to go get Massie a drink. Massie finally snapped out of her trance and thanked Alicia and Claire for stopping it.
"I think I'm going to go home" Massie said.
"You want me to go with you"
"I just want to be alone" Massie started to walk home.
"MASSIE! Wait up" She recognized the voice. He called after her again.
"Can I walk you home?" Derek asked. She looked over at him. "You okay?"
"Yea, just a little shaken up" He comforted her till, they got to the front of her house. Derek gave her a hug, which seemed to last forever. Massie finally pulled away from the hug.
"This isn't going to work"
"Us?" Massie nodded. "I kissed you tonight because I want to be with you"
"It's just not gonna work" Massie said before running inside, with tears in her eyes. Derek stood there for a while not knowing what to do. He was bummed, he really liked her, but I guess not everyone has their happy endings.
The next couple days were long ones. Massie and Derek haven't spoken to each other since that night, but hopefully the party that was being held tonight will reopen doors for them.
"Massie" Alicia whined. "You have to come tonight, all you have been doing is moping around…and you won't even tell me why!!!" Alicia stomped her foot.
"Come on Mass, it'll be fun" Claire reassured. Massie rolled her eyes. "We'll pick out your outfit and do your hair and make up, and make you look more gorgeous" Massie let a small smile out.
"Is that a smile I see?" Claire teased.
"No" Massie said while trying to hold back laughter.
"So, Will you go?" Alicia asked with pleading eyes.
Massie didn't answer for awhile. "Fine!"
Claire and Alicia picked out a green Racerback dress from Juicy with gold sandles. Her hair was in loose curls. They applied tons of mascara and gold eye shadow to her eyes. Massie looked gorgeous.
"Are you ready to go?" Claire asked. Massie was unsure. She had butterflies; she knew Derek would be there.
"I think" Massie said weakly.
The three girls drove over to the party.
"Who's party is this anyways?" Alicia asked.
"I don't know, but he's visiting his grandparents for the summer. I think his name is Logan"
"LOGAN REESE!!!!!" Massie yelled.
"I don't know maybe" Claire said.
"Oh no" Alicia said. Claire pulled to two girls into the house.
"Lets go have fun" Claire said while leading them over to Cam and Josh.
"Hey guys" Massie said trying to be cheerful. She gave the two guys a hug.
"Where have ya been?" Josh asked. "I haven't seen you around"
"Yea, I just kinda wanted to stay home" Josh put his arm around Massie.
"I'm glad you came tonight" Alicia shot Massie a look. Massie nervously laughed.
"Ummm, where's Derek?"
"Uhhh" The two boys looked at each other nervously. Claire looked behind Massie's shoulder and saw Derek dancing with at least four other girls. Massie turned around to see what Claire was looking at. Her face went pale, and she thought she was going to throw up. Massie slowly turned back to the group. Where Cam and Josh were nervously laughing.
"I'm sorry" Cam said.
"No bigy, it's not like we're together. You guys go dance have fun" Massie said while pushing her friends to the dance floor. She was watching them and caught the eye of Derek while he was dancing. He looked heartbroken. He turned away, then looked back at her and then kissed one of the girls he was dancing with. He was definitely trying to get her jealous. Massie was trying to hold her tears back. I guess it serves her right for turning down the most wanted skateboarder in America.
"Heyyyy" She heard Logan say to her. "You okay?" He asked. Massie just looked at him knowing Derek was looking at her and kissed Logan. It wasn't just a peck, but a kiss that would definitely make someone jealous. After the kiss was done, Massie walked away. Massie was angry. She was mad at her self; at Derek and at her friends for making her go to this stupid party. Massie ran outside to get some air. Why was this happening to her; she came here to get away from the drama and of course it had to follow her. Josh came outside, making sure she was okay. He brought her in to a hug, making sure she was ok. Massie cried; over a boy. That never ever has happened to her.
"Hold it" He said while holding her tight. "Hold it…you got it?" Massie nodded. He let go and whipped her tears away from her eyes. Massie laughed.
"I'm a mess" She said.
"A beautiful mess" he said which made her laugh more. "Massie, Derek can be a jerk sometimes, just let go. There are plenty of other guys out there" Massie shrugged.
"But he's the one that I want, the one I like. I don't know what it is, but it's like I've known him my whole life…I guess I'm in love" Massie said looking up in to Josh's dark brown eyes.
"Derek, seems to have that affect on girls"
"It's different" No one spoke for awhile. "Thank you" Massie finally said.
"For what?" Josh asked confused.
"For a really nice guy sometimes you are really dumb" Massie teased. He took her into another hug. Massie pulled away. "For real. Thank you for being there for me"
"What are friend for?" Massie smiled then walked back to the party. Josh sighed.
"I love you" he whispered to himself.
Massie went back into the party finding a panicked Alicia.
"Where were you!? I was looking all over for you"
"I was outside with Josh"
"That's where he is, bye" Alicia said before running outside to go be with Josh.
Massie went to go talk to some people that looked familiar. She had a couple to many drinks and know was on the dance floor making a fool of her self, but no one really noticed. Everyone else was pretty much wasted. Massie and "her new best friend" Melanie were dancing on table tops, I guess having a great time.
Derek walked up to the table Massie was dancing on. "Massie, will you come down off that table?"
"Hell no. Not for you, not for anyone" Massie giggled. Derek picked her up off her feet and carried her "princess style".
"Whooo! Derek put me down"
"Not till we talk" Massie rolled her eyes. He carried to her to one of the bedrooms. "What do you want!!!" Massie snapped.
"You know what I want. I've told you many times, but the question is what do you want"
"It doesn't matter anymore" Massie tried to walk out, but Derek stepped in front of the door.
"Massie, it does matter" Massie glared at him.
"No it doesn't. You don't care; I don't care. So…." Massie tried to escape again. "WILL YOU JUST LET ME OUT!!?" Massie screamed.
"No, Massie I don't care how ridiculous this sounds but I'm in love with you!"
"JUST LET ME OUT!" Massie started to cry.
"I'm in love with you Massie Block"
"How do I know you're not going to hurt me! You already did it once!"
"Cuz I love you"
"You kissed another girl- let me rephrase that you kissed some girls tonight…that weren't me!"
"Well, you kissed a boy who wasn't me, but I still love you and we both know that our kisses were out of jealousy"
"JUST LEAVE ME ALONE! PLEASE!"
"Massie, what- or who do you want"
"I WANT YOU! GODAMIT!!!" Massie tried running out of the room, but before she had the chance; he kissed her. The kiss had so much emotion, it was hard not to let it end. Derek pulled away.
"Well, you got me" He whispered. Massie looked up into his eyes and smiled. He kissed her again.
"I love you Massie Block"
"I love you too Derek Harrington"
