I've been awake for 42 hours and I'm running on pure caffeine and spite at the moment. If I hear the phrase "_ page essay" one more time I think I'll scream.
So I'm off to shower, then bed. Sorry about the kind of late update, but I had some things due this week and needed to get them done. I did try to make this one longer though.
The song playing at the party is Wicked Games by The Weeknd. I originally named this story after that song before I changed it so I thought it was kinda fun to include it.
Thank you to everyone who reviewed, please keep them coming, and thank you for reading. Goodnight and Happy Wednesday.
They walked together, occasionally bumping into each other playfully as Sidney led him to a house on the very edge of the beach, surrounded by sand on one side and forest on the other. There were cars parked along the street and around the back and they could hear the music thumping from outside on the street.
"Are you sure you want to do this?" She asked, looking up at him as she turned to face him. She knew that Seth was no partier, and she didn't want to push him into it. "We can leave whenever you want."
"I want to." He smiled, leaning down to kiss her gently. The tension fled from her body as she felt his lips brush against hers and she couldn't help but return his smile. He was infectious that way.
"Okay…" She took a deep breath before they walked up to the gated yard and Sidney let them in. People were crowded together, talking and dancing around a firepit in the center of the yard while he could see more people inside the dark living room through the glass sliding door on the deck. "Come on, I have somebody I want you to meet."
He let her lead him, her hand clasped in his as she maneuvered through the crowd like a lithe wild cat and he tried to avoid bumping into too many people or stepping on too many toes in the crowd. She grinned as she hopped onto the deck and leaned down to hug the shirtless man sprawled in an old lawn chair. "Kyle, I have somebody for you to meet."
Kyle's head lolled to the side as he appraised Seth silently with reddened, dilated green eyes and he smirked as Sidney stood behind him, her arms around his neck loosely as she smiled up at Seth reassuringly. Kyle's fingertips ran along Sidney's wrist and Seth felt a sharp pang of possessiveness, but he tried not to show it. "He's an elder's son." It wasn't a question, but Sidney nodded.
She whispered in his ear, "Be nice. He's cool." She pulled away from his as he hummed softly and she took a seat the chair beside him, crossing her legs and smiling as Seth absentmindedly ran a hand through her hair. She loved all the little tender touches he gave her; it made her feel like more than a hookup or a friend.
Wordlessly, Kyle produced a small plastic baggy from the pocket of his ragged jeans and passed it over to Sidney, trading for the joint she had pulled out without Seth noticing. As she tucked the bag into her pocket, he frowned slightly. 'She said she did drugs before…What am I getting into?'
Before he could dwell on it for too long, she stood once more and gave him a smile that made him unconsciously reach out to rest a hand on her hip, just wanting to feel her. She kissed him softly and led him over to a corner of the yard where there weren't any people, hidden almost in the shadows. "Here."
She dumped the contents of the bag into her hand and he saw, his eyes adjusting to the darkness, two small blue pills sitting in her palm. "What are they?" He swallowed hard as he held onto her hips, leaning back against the fence as she stood in front of him.
"Do you trust me?" She asked quietly as she looked up into his eyes, feeling his thumbs sweeping back and forth over the lace just above her shorts.
"Yes." He answered almost immediately, feeling almost no doubt as he stared into her warm, golden eyes.
"Here." She held up one of the pills and the light from the deck shone on it just enough so that he could see the small imprint of a butterfly on the tablet. "It makes things so much more."
'More what?' He asked mentally as he let her pop the pill into his mouth.
His hands gripped her hips, pulling her closer as she rocked against him, their breath mingling as they broke their kiss but kept their faces together. Her hands gripped his shirt, pulling him closer as the music thumped so loudly around them that he couldn't form a complete thought other than 'I need her'.
Her skin glistened with a fine sheen of sweat as she pressed against him, their bodies rocking to the beat of the song in the sea of teenagers crowding the living room. "Seth," She spoke under her breath as he gripped her waist, holding her to him as she rolled her hips firmly against the growing bulge in his jeans. "Upstairs."
He nodded, but it took all his strength to loosen her grip, almost whining out loud as he felt her body leave his. He shuffled along behind her, hearing people snickering as they saw them rushing away and complaining as Sidney practically barreled up the stairs, her heels thudding on the stairs.
His mouth hung open slightly as he tried to keep up with all the sounds and colors whirring by him, feeling hot and stifled in all of his clothes as his eyes finally came to rest on Sidney's ass, tracing the seams of her shorts as she pulled him into a bedroom. He stumbled in after her, gripping her around the waist and kissing her passionately as soon as she faced him again. "Seth…" She whispered against his lips as she unbuttoned his shirt quickly, giving up halfway down as her hands dove beneath the material and traced the hard planes of his body over his white tank top.
His hands cupped her ass, squeezing and caressing her figure as they fell onto the bed together, her on top and their legs tangled together. He could still hear the music from downstairs clearly as she sat up, helping his clumsy hands undo the buttons of her shorts as she rocked against him slowly, as if trying to tease him.
"Bring your love, baby, I could bring my shame,"
As she stood up to shimmy out of her shorts, he fell back against the pillows to watch, groaning quietly as she smirked. She knew what she was doing to him and she was loving it. Her shorts finally fell and he finished getting his shirt off, tossing it off the bed as she danced for him, swaying her hips to the music as she stepped up to the foot of the bed.
"Bring the drugs, baby, I could bring my pain,"
She crawled up his body, her lace covered breasts dragging against his body as she kissed her way up his stomach, up his chest to his neck. He gripped her ass tightly as she pressed against him, his lips trailing down her neck as she sat up, rolling her hips against his with the beat. Her long nails ran through his hair, sending a shiver down his spine as he pressed his face between her breasts, taking a deep breath as the concentrated scent of her perfume made his head spin.
"I got my heart right here, I got my scars right here,"
He pushed the strap of her bodysuit off her shoulder, sucking on the tender, fleshy expanse just above her nipple as she held onto his hair, rocking faster against him as she let out a breathless moan. As he shoved the material aside, he heard a rip but if Sidney minded, she was too lost to care at the moment. He pushed the other side off her shoulder and the lace pooled around her waist, his hands quickly covering her breasts as they were uncovered.
"Bring the cups, baby, I could bring the drank,"
He could feel the heat emanating from her body as he rolled them over, trapping her beneath him as he caressed her breasts and kissed down the smooth, velvety valley between them. Soft, quiet moans escaped her as she closed her eyes. They both moaned as the bulge in his jeans pressed against her center, denim and lace the only thing keeping them separate at this point.
"Bring your body, baby, I could bring you fame, and that's my motherfucking words too,"
He tried to pull the bodysuit off her, but the delicate lace tore again. He gripped it with both hands and yanked, tearing it away from her body completely and tossing the scraps to the floor. She gasped, then smirked as she raked her nails down his back, leaving a faint burning sensation on his skin even through his top.
"Just let me motherfucking love you," She sang along quietly as she pushed his jeans down, moaning as his warm mouth captured one of her nipples and her back arched off the mattress. "Seth, please…"
"Please?" He glanced up at her, noticing for the first time how huge her pupils seemed. He wondered if his looked the same.
"I need more." She punctuated the sentence by running her nails down his back to his ass, pulling him tightly against her as they both panted softly. "Please, Seth."
He had never been harder as he listened to her begging, his hands roaming her body and exploring as she lay naked, save for her heels, beneath him for the first time. "What do you need?"
She flipped them over, surprising him with her strength as she straddled him again. "I want to feel you." She gently rolled her hips, making them both moan as he felt her pressed against his cock. His boxers were just a thin layer between their bodies, and he could feel how wet she was.
He gripped her hips as his eyes roamed her body, drinking in the sight of her greedily as she rocked and bounced against him. Her full breasts bounced with every movement, captivating him as she brought her hands up to hold them herself.
He was quickly getting close as he watched her, before he dared to let his eyes venture lower. When he did, he felt a rush of heat go through his belly as his eyes traced the smooth, flat plane of her stomach, down from her pierced belly button to the small, bare triangle between her thighs. It was as if he fit there perfectly as he watched her rocking and grinding on him, his hands gripping her thighs and covering the small, swirly symbol tattooed just below her hip.
"Seth," She moaned as she leaned down, kissing him passionately as he rocked back against her.
"I'm close." He panted, slipping his hands up to cup her ass as she lost her rhythm, rocking and grinding into him desperately as she felt the pleasure crash over her like a wave. She froze, moaning against his lips as he felt her wetness soaking his boxers and he couldn't hold back anymore.
"What is this?" He ran a finger over the ink on her thigh, making her shiver softly at his touch. He was sprawled on his back on the bed, her beside him laying on her stomach, she had her head resting on his bicep and one hand splayed across his chest as if to make sure he hadn't left as she relaxed.
"It's the astrological sign for the Juno asteroid." She murmured, opening her eyes as she smiled softly at him. His fingers traced the shape slowly, from the asterisk-esque top down to the bottom that ended in a cross. "How do you feel?"
He was a little dizzy now that the warmth and the need had left him. Dizzy and nauseous. He frowned softly as he ran a finger lazily down her back, feeling the soft bumps and grooves of her spine as he tried to blink and clear his vision. "I…feel funny…"
"Oh, man. It's wearing off, huh?" She sighed softly as she stretched, looking, again, more like a graceful feline than a human. "We should clean up and head back down, I know what'll make it feel better." She sat up, pouting a little as she left her new favorite spot in his arms and reached for her shorts.
He sat up slowly, groaning softly as her felt his muscles trying to cramp up. "What's wrong with me?"
"Nothing's wrong, baby. You just need water and some air." She held up the tattered remains of her bodysuit, smirking. "Did my clothing do something to offend you?"
"It hid you from me." He joked back as he stood, walking stiffly towards the connected bathroom to clean up.
"I'll be sure to warn all my other clothes too." She smiled as she stopped him, kissing him sweetly before she let him continue into the bright bathroom.
'God, it's bright.' He squinted as he cleaned up and glanced at his reflection in the mirror over the sink. His hair was a mess, he had hickeys and lipstick marks littering his chest and neck, and his pupils looked about the size of quarters. 'Wow.' He tried not to grin as he started to rinse the lipstick off, finding a pink kiss-mark placed perfectly around his nipple.
He could hear Sidney moving around in the bedroom as he finished up and walked out, smiling as he saw her smoothing out the bed covers that they had rumpled. She was wearing his big, black button up shirt that hung on her petite frame, her breasts threatening to spill out past the two buttons she had fasted to keep it on. "Stealing my clothes now?"
"Sorry, some big beast shredded my shirt." She laughed as she finished and tossed him his jeans and tank top. "I mean, I can take it off if you want."
Her hands moved to undo the buttons and he shook his head, yanking his jeans on as his muscles protested. "It looks better on you."
She smiled, blushing softly and ducking her head to hide it as she stepped towards the door. "I'm uh…I'm going to go downstairs. Come down whenever you're ready, the party is probably winding down by now."
He watched her disappear, the dark wood door shutting behind her as he finished getting dressed again. 'She's something else.' He tried to ignore the cramping in his legs as he headed down the stairs, seeing people passed out on the couches or on the floor, surrounded by Solo cups and other party litter.
He stepped over the bodies as he peered around, looking for Sidney. Through the blurry film over his eyes, he spotted her, seeing her perched on the deck railing outside with her back to the sliding door.
She heard the door open and smiled, looking back at him as she blew smoke at him. The scent of strawberries nearly smacked him in the face as he stepped out onto the deck, seeing Kyle still sprawled in the lawn chair with a girl in his lap, braiding his long, brown hair as he rested with his eyes shut. "Hey. Here, drink this." She tossed a cold bottle of water to him as he stepped up beside her.
"Thanks," He murmured as he caught it, glancing around the yard more as he took a long drink. "Where is everybody?"
"People usually start clearing out around 4 or 5 AM. I guess we were occupied for longer than we thought." Sidney offered him the joint she held as he sat the water down on the railing. "It's strawberry, it isn't as strong as the one we smoked last time. It'll make the comedown easier."
"You do tend to have that effect on men, Sid." Kyle spoke up monotonously as the girl in his lap giggled and looked over at them.
"This one's cute though. Much cuter than that asshole, Paul." She wrinkled her nose up as Kyle laughed, watching Seth take an experimental drag as he perched on the railing beside Sidney.
"How'd you like the candy?" He asked as he finished whatever the amber colored liquid in his clear cup was and automatically, the girl in his lap stood to get him a refill.
"The…what?" Seth looked at Sidney for guidance and she smiled as she reached out to smooth his messy hair.
"The pill. How did you like it?"
"Oh! It was…It was intense." He sighed as he remembered the feelings that had coursed through him, like he was barely in control but totally fine with it. "What was it though?"
"Ecstasy." Sidney said softly as she rested her head on his shoulder and closed her eyes, the familiar fatigue washing over her as she felt her own crash coming on. "I told you, it makes everything just…more."
They all stayed quiet for a while before the girl returned with another drink and Kyle stood up, throwing an arm around her shoulders as he stretched. "I'm gonna head up, Sid. You and lover boy good down here?"
"Yeah, Kyle. Thanks." Sidney hugged the tall, tan man as he finally broke his stoic mask, cracking a small smile.
"Welcome. Lover boy, I hope you find your way back sometimes." He seemed amused as he appraised Seth once more, this time nodding. "Take care of my girl."
"I will." Seth spoke, coughing softly as the pungent strawberry smoke got to him. Kyle chuckled as he took his girlfriend inside, leaving the two teens outside together. "So…you know the last time I smoked with you, I ate basically all the food in our kitchen?"
Sidney laughed, covering her mouth as Seth smiled, handing the joint back to her. "Aw, I bet your mom loved that."
"Oh yeah. What time is it?" He knew his mom always woke up at six and she'd probably poke her head in to check on him.
Sidney checked her phone as he glanced up, noticing the sky becoming lighter as he kept sipping on his water. "Almost 6. Mom gonna check on you?"
"Most likely." He smiled as he leaned over to kiss her gently. "It was worth it though."
Sidney smiled, releasing the nervous breath she'd been holding onto since he stepped outside. Her hand found his, resting on her thigh as she laced their fingers together. "Really? You had fun?"
"I've never felt like that before." He yawned softly as he nodded, sighing softly as he realized he probably needed to head home before his mom called the cops. "I guess I should go…"
Sidney nodded, looking down at the wooden floor of the deck until his stomach rumbled, making him blush as she giggled. "Hungry?"
He nodded sheepishly as she finished the joint and put it out, tossing the remnants into the grass as she hopped off the railing. "I know a place that's open." She quickly backtracked, her eyes widening as she stood between his legs. "I mean if you want to- I know you should probably- I mean-"
He cut her off with a soft kiss as he smiled, pulling away after a moment and resting his forehead against hers. "Let's go."
"This place has the best breakfast. And burgers." She grinned as he opened the door to the little roadside diner, holding the door for her as she blushed softly and ducked inside. She immediately walked over to one of the window booths and slid in, grabbing one of the menus in the holder by the windowsill.
"Do you come here a lot?" Seth asked, sliding into the booth beside her after she patted the faded brown leather seat for him.
"Oh, yeah. My dad and I used to come here every Friday." She smiled as she skimmed over the menu she knew by heart and snuggled closer into Seth's side. "Grace was never much of a cook so every Friday he would take off of work early and we'd come here after school to pig out."
He smiled as he wrapped an arm around her shoulders, kissing the top of her head gently as they shared the menu. "That's sweet. What's your favorite thing?"
She hummed softly as she perused the menu, then flipped it over to the lunch side. "I'm not really big on breakfast, but this burger right here," She tapped the tiny photo with her nail. "Oh my god, it's amazing."
"I wouldn't have pegged you for a pasta burger girl." He teased as he read the burger description. 'A juicy, char-broiled burger topped with mozzarella, penne pasta, and a spicy marinara sauce on a garlic brioche bun. Damn.' He had to admit, it did sound amazing.
Sidney laughed as she nodded, "Are you kidding? It's nothing but carbs and red meat, I never get to eat those." At his questioning glance, she elaborated quietly. "If Grace finds anything outside of her diet in the house, she tosses it. Says it'll just make me fatter."
He stayed quiet for a moment as he tried to push down the sudden rage that he felt towards the woman he hadn't met yet. Finally, he looked down at Sidney and gave her his sweet, boyish grin that made her heart flutter each time. "Then I guess we'll just have to come here sometime during lunch hours."
She grinned as she nodded, leaning up to kiss his deeply as she silently thanked him for not dwelling on it.
"I'm stuffed." Sidney mumbled as she clung to Seth's back, feeling like a bag of potatoes as he carried her. He chuckled, caressing her thighs gently as he walked along the sidewalk, knowing that it was well past time for school to start and well past time for his mom to start her shift at the hospital. "Why'd you let me eat that much?"
"Hey, you were the one trying to come after my pancakes after you demolished yours." He laughed as she raised her hand as if to swat at him, then dropped it after deciding it wasn't worth the energy. "Do you want me to take you home or…"
"Not home." She mumbled, not knowing if Clark was still lurking around there, but knowing how he would react to her showing up with Seth. "But if you wanna go home and rest or stuff, I can-"
"Sidney, I wasn't trying to get rid of you." He stopped, letting her hop down as they stood at the street corner. "I just didn't know where you wanted to go."
"Oh." She mumbled, a little embarrassed at her mini-freak out as she bowed her head.
Seth gently lifted her chin with his finger, frowning softly. "What's going on at home?"
"I…Clark showed up a few days ago so…Juno and I are staying at the Lahote's. That's why I was with Paul." She added the last part as an afterthought, remembering that Paul had bragged about her being in his bed.
Seth stayed quiet for a second before he kissed her forehead softly and grabbed her hand. "Come on. Mom should be at work by now, you can come rest with me." She didn't say anything as he led her up the street to his house, making sure his mom's car was gone before he bounded up the steps to the front door.
Sidney smiled at his enthusiasm before she followed him in, laughing as he immediately made a beeline for the kitchen. "Seth, we just ate!"
"Now I want dessert." He grinned at her as he dug through the pantry and emerged victorious with a jumbo bag of Sour Patch Kids in his fist. "Bedroom or living room?"
"Up to you." Sidney smiled, trailing after him as he walked into the living room, stopping to kick his sneakers off before he plopped onto the couch. It made her happy to see him so at home, so comfortable. 'That's how a home should be. Comfortable.' She sat down beside him, tucking her legs under her as she snuggled close to his side and stole a few pieces of his candy. "Is that yours?" She spied the PS4 peeking out from the entertainment center below the TV and smirked.
"Yeah, why?" He mumbled, his mouth full of candy as he watched her slip off the couch and crawl across the floor to peek into the cabinet of games. Watching her ass wriggle as she crawled entranced him and he almost missed her next question.
"Want to play something?"
"Watch out for the-" She cringed as Seth's Nord character ran down the narrow corridor, only to be smacked back by the spiked wall that sprung out. "Pressure plate."
"I've tried this stupid dungeon like 30 times already, how do you make it look so easy?" He handed the controller off to her and wrapped his arms around her waist, pulling her into his lap as she played for him.
"I have many talents, baby." She laughed, leaning back against his chest as she shook her head in disapproval. "I don't know how you can play as a Nord, though."
"We can't all be thieving kittens." He shrugged, laughing as she jabbed him gently with her elbow as a response.
"I'll have you know, my Khajiit could kick your Nord's clumsy ass all over Skyrim." She stopped, pausing the game as she stretched and relaxed against him. He plucked the controller out of her hands and laid back, playing with her hair gently as they curled up together. "I'm so tired."
"I know, baby. Nap, it's okay." He smiled as she yawned and buried her face against his chest, wrapping his arms around her to keep her warm.
"But I smell like a party." She mumbled and he could tell she was fading quickly.
He made a big show of sniffing her hair obnoxiously and grinned as she giggled. "You smell like coconut and pancake syrup."
"I'm a tropical breakfast." She laughed quietly, making him smile as he held her closely. 'Yes, you are.'
