I don't own the characters or the show.
--Chapter- 11.
I borrowed a long black skirt of Annie's to wear to the party. I am still pretty much a T-shirt and jeans or shorts kind of gal. Plus I didn't bother to pack any decent clothe, I didn't see the point of taking up room in my suitcase. I decided to wear a simple blue blouse with the skirt, with a pair of Mary Jane shoes.
I'm still not looking forward to this party, or get together as my mom is calling it. I much rather stay home and veg out on the couch. Annie's cold as all but disappeared and with a dose of cold medicine she'll be good to go. Maybe I caught her bug and will develop a fever in the next ten minutes. It's not like that I don't like Glen and his parents, but this get together is centered around the older group. Which means it'll be us young people sitting in a room with a video game machine for two hours. That's how it usually works out. But of course we all had to make an appearance, especially me because must of these people haven't seen me since I left.
We arrived 10 minutes after eight, we are actually 45 minutes late, but it doesn't really matter because this is the kind of gathering that people come and go all night. The first person I saw when we walked in the big double front doors was Clu standing by himself in the back. I knew all I long he would be here it was the main reason I didn't want to come. But I had hoped some how I would be able to avoid him the entire time. It's too late he has seen me looking at him. Annie and Jack had rushed off to the food table so I am unable to turn around and talk to them. Clu is coming my way, there is truly no way out. So I put on the best fake smile I can muster without looking like an ass.
"Hey Fi." I wanted to scream. I wanted to punch the crap out of him until he can't bleed anymore. He was drunk! Sure I never been around that many drunks before, but I have no doubt he's intoxicated out of his mind. His speech of just two words were slurred, his eyes were bloodshot, and I do recall when he walked over to him he wasn't very steady on his feet. Yeah and he excepted me to forgive him. What a joke.
