The Time Of My Life
The day of Sean's most anticipated 17th birthday party arrived, it was Friday and it was all the teens at St. Johns could talk about. Tommy had other things on his mind; Melissa had been more annoying and clingy than ever. He was starting to wonder if having sex with her was worth all this trouble.
They were on their way to Sean's party at the Marriott in a cab and she was going on and on about who would be there with whom and who wouldn't, like he gave a damn. He was so happy this stupid relationship was coming to an end after tonight. Then he could focus on bigger and better things like stealing Lil away from Sean.
Sure he was a pretty cool guy. He didn't know what went down between Sean and Angelica but his cousin seemed to be ok with him now. Chuckie was sharing the ride looking like he'd rather be anywhere else; he also looked a little depressed.
Angelica and Susie opted to ride with Kimi and her date. Phil and Lil were already there. Phil was setting up with his band and Lil was making sure every thing was the way it should be.
The cabs all arrived at the hotel and Tommy lead the gang to the suite that Sean rented out. When they walked in everything was in full swing. Teens were dancing kegs were being tapped alcohol was flowing everywhere. Sean had a DJ booth and he booked Phil's band too. There were colorful lights flashing around. The DJ was playing party music and Melissa dragged Tommy onto the dance floor. Kimi and her date went to go dance as well. Susie decided to get some punch she was sure it was spiked but she didn't care.
Angelica noticed Chuckie looking like he just lost his best friend so she decided to go talk to him.
"You look excited to be here" she said sarcastically crossing her arms and shaking her head at the already drunk teens.
"Yeah well, I just got this" said Chuckie handing her what looked like a letter. Angelica took it from him and read it; it was a break up letter from Nicole stating that she thought they needed space.
"I'm sorry Finster"
"Can't say that I didn't see it coming," he said sadly. Angelica really felt bad for him he was a great guy and definitely didn't deserve this.
"Hey, we're at a party right, let's get really fucking plastered as a big fuck you to Nicole and have some fun" she said jokingly. Chuckie laughed but shook his head.
"I don't think so"
"Come on Finster, look you just had your heart ripped out right" she asked He glared at her. "So lets drink and forget about it you can dwell on your heartbreak tomorrow" she said. Chuckie laughed and grabbed a cup and filled it with beer handed it to her and filled another.
"Lets do it," he said as he clinked their cups together. They both chugged fast and laughed.
Susie was walking around with her cup in her hand drinking it every now and then, whoever mixed this drink did a very good job because she couldn't taste the liquor what so ever.
She would wave at her friends every now and then when she saw them and then she decided to go on the dance floor. She swayed to the music already feeling the alcohol in her system when someone tapped her on the shoulder. She turned around and came face to face with Justin.
"What is it Justin, shouldn't you be getting ready to play" she asked, Justin was in Phil's band.
"We go up in about 15 min and we play for an hour"
"Right" she said attempting to turn back around. He stopped her though.
"Look I wanna talk to you ok,"
"I already told you…"
"Just listen, every since we broke up I've been at a stand still, you were my first and only love, I still love you, I want you back" he said in a hurry. Susie looked like she'd seen a ghost, but then he noticed that she wasn't looking at him but rather past him.
"Darryl" she said. Darryl, Susie's boyfriend home from college came over to them.
"Hey babe, surprised to see me" all Susie did was nod. He kissed her on the forehead and Justin left.
Tommy had finally lost Melissa in the crowd; he was walking around idly with his drink, looking for Lil when he spotted her. She was looking absolutely gorgeous. He walked over to her, where she was talking with her friends and put his hand on the small of her back and felt her tense up he smirked.
"Can I speak to you for a second" he whispered in her ear. She rolled her eyes and turned to him.
"We're speaking now," she said. He let his eyes do a once over of her body and licked his lips. She smirked at him this time.
"Like what you see"
"Definitely"
"Well keep looking that's all you'll ever be able to do," she said laughing and walking away. Tommy followed her though.
Phil was walking around looking for Kimi to maybe try and explain things; she hadn't spoken to him since she'd seen him and Wally the other day. He walked onto the dance floor and he saw her with his new lead singer, Z. He gathered up all the courage he could muster and walked over to them.
"Kimi can I talk to you for a second" he asked
"I'm busy Philip" she said coldly and kept dancing.
"Come on Kimi, look what you saw looked like something it wasn't," he said
"I don't care Phil I'm moving on," she said sighing as she stopped dancing. "Z can you go get me some punch" she asked him; he obliged and left the two alone.
"Kimi look at me ok, I swear to you that I don't know want Wally, I was waiting by your door to let you know how I feel." He said
"I saw how you felt," she said almost tearing up.
"No you didn't," he said looking into her eyes; she stared into his as well. "But maybe I can show you now" he said pulling her to him lightly and kissing her. At first she didn't respond but soon she got into the kiss and wrapped her arms around his neck. He wrapped his around her waist and pulled her closer. When they broke apart she was in a daze.
"Wow"
"I know," he said smiling. "I'll see you after the band plays" he said hugging her. "Oh yeah and dump Z let him down easy will you, he's our singer" she smiled at him as he went to the stage.
"Tommy why do you insist on embarrassing yourself" asked Lil as she stopped by the rest rooms.
"Why won't you give into this," he said coming closer to her.
"Give into what?" she asked as she backed up. He moved closer to her till she was backed into the wall.
"Us" he said so close on her now that she could feel his breath on her nose, his scent was intoxicating, but she stood her ground.
"There is no us," she said
"Not yet there isn't but there will be," he said leaning down to kiss her, she wasn't moving away either. Right when their lips were about to touch someone called him.
"Tommy…Tommy!" they moved away from each other to see Melissa coming down the hallway. She came over to them ignoring Lil.
"Where were you, I've been looking for you all night, come on I want to show you something" she said walking off still ignoring Lil. Lil rolled her eyes.
"Better go follow your master puppet," she said smirking.
"I've got some business to take care of but I'll be back" he said winking at her, she rolled her eyes again then decided that she needed to find Sean and fast.
Melissa grabbed Tommy's hand and walked to the elevator.
"I booked a room for tonight for us" she said smiling back he smiled back at her.
"Well lead the way," he said as the elevator came, the two of them stepped on. Finally this will be over. He thought, little did he know Melissa was thinking something entirely different as she pulled out a condom from her purse. He was going to be hers forever if it was the last thing she did.
