Chapter 6 - Party Hardy (part 1)


Thursday came and went like any other ordinary day. long and boring. At this time everything seemed to repeat it's self it was so tedious and tiring. but Friday's were the type of days that people would look forward to.

Ashley, Kim and Steph walked home from school. the same way, the same time. everyday the same old thing. But at least they had the party that night to look forward to.

"...what are you wearing tonight Kimmy? Remember I said wear something nice"Ashley winked to Kim as she tried to imply something.

"yeah yeah I know. I think I might just wear my blue jeans and a tank top....wata'ya think Ash?"
replied Kim as she kept walking.

"sounds good I guess...."Ashley yawned as she walked up a small hill following behind Kim. Steph walked next to Ashley holding onto a couple of books.

Tonight will be fun guys. Just remember the address she wicked. We'll party all night"Steph said as she turned into her walkway leading up to her house.

"...yes we will"
Kim and Ashley both said together.
Steph waved good bye as she ran up to her door and went inside. Kim and Ashley continued their walk home.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Later that night at super time Ashley found herself jumping out of the shower. She was to go over about half an hour early to help Steph with the refreshments and to pick up a couple of things like chips, ice and other things they might want.

Pulling a blue skirt up over her hips she did up the buttons and slides her upper body into a light yellow sweater. Putting on her black boots she does them up a bit, but not all the way.
She pulled her hair back into a lose pony tail then made her way out of the house and headed towards the boys' apartment.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Once Kim got to the apartment she was tired and out of breath. Standing up straight she brushes off her pants and fixes her hair a bit before knocking on the door. Knocking on the door 3 times, she waits for some one to answer the door.

Standing in the door way Heero turns the knob, opening the door.

"..h...hello"Kim says in a sweet voice.

Heero gave a cold glare to Kim. his forehead obviously red from Karate. a small bruise seemed to make it's way upon his fair skin.

"..what are you doing here?" he asked in a rude tone.
"Well Ashley and Steph invited me...." Kim said shyly as she looked to the ground.

Heero said nothing except a low grunt that purged threw his lips. The grunt was even barely heard by Kim. He moved to the side letting Kim into the apartment. Closing the door behind her ,Heero looks to Kim as if to say something.

Just as Kim went to thank Heero for letting her in. Ashley bounded through the porch"Oh! hey Kimmy! You came!"she said cheerfully.

"yeah I was alone and you know I don't like to be so......I thought I'd say what the hell and come over to join you guys."

Ashley smiled as she took Kim's upper arm, forcing her off into the living room where Steph, Trowa, Quatre and Duo sat on the floor playing scrabble. Steph was wearing a shirt that said"Ready, Willing and always Available".She wore tight black jeans that hung from her hips.

Kim perked a brow"...okay?..so...what's up?"she asked.
Ashley moved away from Kim as she flopped down on her knee's next to Steph "this is boring...let's do something fun"

"It's only boring cuz your losing" Duo said with a smug glare.
Ashley jumped to her feet and pointed at Duo
"I am not....you are...you're the one making up stupid words like...CHAMON! and like....GIMP!...what the hell are they suppose to mean? Huh Mr.I think I'm better than everyone...you...you"...

Ashley was interrupted when Steph jumped to her feet and dragged Ashley out into the kitchen.

Duo shrugged"..she's a strange one..."

Heero joined Kim and the boys in the living room, carrying two cases of beer. He put them down on the table. Opening the box he hands one to Duo and one to Trowa, not handing any to Quatre for the simple fact that Quatre doesn't drink alcohol beverages. He then offered on to Kim.

"uh sorry....I. .I don't drink"she smiled lightly as she then pushes it away towards Heero.
Heero then looked to the rejected beer. Taking the top off he then started to drink it .

Duo got up and walked to the balcony door, sliding it open he walks out and leans out over the rail. Heero looked to the kitchen to see Ashley and Steph walk out with two pitches of red liquid and two clear glasses.

Setting the two jugs down on the table next to the box of beer they then hand one glass to Kim and one to Quatre. Kim blinked looking to the glass and then to Steph."...uh?"

"It's juice. Me and Ashley made it just for you.. It's a new flavor"Steph said as she smiled evilly at Ashley.

"Yeah seeing that you two don't drink. We made juice for you" Ashley nodded repeatedly as she exchanged looks with Steph and Kim.

"good I'm parched"Kim said as she took up her glass and filled it with red colored liquid. Quatre did the same. Not saying anything they both drank from the glass. Steph smiled as a mission has been accomplished. Crossing her arms she looked to Ashley who was staring at Duo.

Steph looked to Quatre and walked over and sat next to him. Quatre was on his second glass of juice when he spoke up,

"..This stuff is good....what's it made from?"

Waving her hand Steph looked away.

"Ah it's just a bit of this and a bit of that...you know sugar....water...uh...juice..you know juice crystals...yeah that's it."

Laying her hands in her lap she looked at Quatre, smiling. Quatre picked up his glass once again and finished drinking it's components.

Trowa made his way over to the stereo as he turned on"it's getting hot in here"by Nelly. He leaned against the entertainment center as he drank his beer.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ashley walked out onto the balcony. Standing behind Duo she smirks.

"..I'll show you who's strange...you nerd"she mumbled in a low voice.

She walked over to Duo and tugged on his braid. To her surprise Duo wiped around holding Ashley over the balcony, his hands around her neck.

"...touch me again and I'll drop you..."Duo said as he held her still.

Still half over the balcony Ashley was frightened. pulling up her leg's she lays her butt on the rail and wraps her leg's around his hips.

"...if I go...your bound to come with me.."she said with and evil smirk. Her leg's tighten around Duo as his grip around her neck got tighter as well.

Steph got up to get Quatre and Kim two more pitchers of "mystery juice". Walking by the balcony door with the two jugs in her hand she blinks as she saw Ashley and Duo in the most usual position on the balcony. Perking a brow she then looks away.

"...Okay I'll leave you two alone then.."

Making her way to the kitchen Steph gets two more jugs for Kim and Quatre. This time putting more vodka in it and less juice crystals. walking back out, she sets the jugs back down. Kim by now was half cut and Quatre was three sheets to the wind.
