The Party

Finding something to wear took a while...

I think I tried on about five different outfits before I finally made a decision. I ended up choosing to wear a high wasted red skirt, a v-neck long sleeved black top and a pair of black flats. Now time for my hair and make-up. Walked into the bathroom and starred at myself in the mirror.

"God it's going to take a lot of concealer to hide those dark circles" I just need more sleep.

I decided to go with a nude eye with winged eyeliner and a red glossy lip. I check my phone to see the time. 8:30pm. Perfect! Just enough time for my hair.

I grabbed the bun on top of my head and carefully let my long black hair free. I could leave it just like that and still look pretty decent but I told myself I'd actually try today. So I took the straightening iron in my hand and began to glide it through my hair.

"D-DAMN hunny you looking fine!" I turned my head to see Yumi with her arms crossed leaning against the frame of my bathroom door appraising my outfit with her eyes. She was wearing a pair of light washed ripped jeans with a white sleeveless crop top to show off her belly ring and a pair of white flats. The white really compliments her tanned skin, blonde hair and blue eyes.

"Are you sure? It's not too much?" I'm starting to feel a little self concious. Yumi is so gorgeous, every boy kills to be with her. My self esteem literally drops when she enters a room.

"Don't be silly. No offense but I haven't seen you look this good in a while. It's about time girlfriend! Now let's get going we're already late for the party! Let's go!" Always so impatient...

"Okay okay just this last piece of hair and... Done! I'm ready!" grabbed my cellphone and my black clutch and ran down the stairs behind Yumi.

"Mom, dad, I'm leaving!" They really think I'm just going out to the movies with my friends and then having a sleepover at Yumi's. If I told them where I'm really going Lord knows I wouldn't be allowed out of this house tonight.

"Okay hunny, call us when you get to Yumi's. Have a good night ladies and be safe! Love you."

"Love you too dad!"


As soon as we get there we can hear the bass of the music playing and the sound of the crowd of people talking. "Wow it's already nuts in there! You sure this is what you want to do tonight?"

"Amaya don't be a wuss. We've been waiting for this moment our whole lives. When else are we going to get the privilage of going to a house party?" She's looking at me like I've lost my mind now, "Besides, Lily and Sara are already in there waiting for us!"

I smile, "You're right i'm being ridiculous. Let's do this!"

We hopped out of the car and head straight to the front door. As soon as we opened it my mouth dropped, there must have been about a hundred people in there. People were dancing, falling on the floor, laughing, making out in different corners of each room, the list goes on and on. I'm starting to regret this decision because not only am I feeling claustrophobic but i'm starting to wonder what I'm going to do at this place anyway.

"Hey guys you made it!" It was Sara and Lily was right behind her. She was wearing a tight fitted cotton dress in gray which had a turtle neck and no sleeves. Her black hair was up in a messy bun and she was wearing cute little black heels with a pointed a toe. Lily was the one out of the four of us who the most underdressed. But that's Lily for you, she doesn't care for skirts, dresses or for boys to even look at her. She was wearing black jeans with a purple plaid top. Her dirty blonde hair was in a braid to the side of her head and she was wearing black and white converse.

"Let me get you guys a drink!" says Lily.

"I'm okay honestly, I won't be drinking tonight. I'm not a fan really." And this is the truth. I hate the feeling and the taste so why bother right?

"Awe okay. What about you Yumi?"

"I'm driving your ladies butts home so no drinks for me tonight." She's a beauty but definetly not a bimbo.

And then we all seperated. Yumi went to go find her boyfriend, Lily went to the back yard and Sara tagged a long to smoke a cigarette. This left me alone. Fantastic. So I decided to find a bathroom. I walked upstairs and went through the first door I saw. Oh, this is a bedroom. Looks pretty big too, wow. No one was around so I decided to snoop around, why not?

I turned on the light and the first thing I saw was this big king sized bed in the middle of the room. I started to walk towards it but then I heard someone behind me.

"Hey what do you think you're doing?" uh oh.

"Uh, i'm sorry I was just looking for the washroom."

"Well this definietly isn't the washroom," he laughed "but since we're in here..." He closed the door behind him. I can feel my hands starts to shake. He started to walk closely to me and I walked backwards away from him. "Your name is Amaya right?" I nodded. "Well you're very beautiful. My name's Corbin, it's a pleasure to finally meet you." My back hit the wall and he was now 2 inches from my face. I can smell the alcohol off his breath.

"How do you know who I am?" Amaya this isn't this time to ask stupid questions, what are you thinking?
"My best friend is dating Yumi so I hear a lot about you. You're so stunning." He brushes the back of his hand against my cheek.

"I-I just need to use the washroom, if you'll excuse me please..." he was not having it. He put his hands on my arms pushing me into the wall so I couldn't move "please let me go."

"You're not going anywhere sweety," he said with a devilish smile "let me have one kiss first."

He started to get closer and I did the only thing I could do, kicked him where it really hurts.

"GAH WHAT WAS THAT FOR?" He instantly fell to the floor. "You bitch! Come back here!"

I ran out the bedroom door, down the stairs and out the front door. I could not be here any longer, I need to get home. I ran as far as I could before I needed to catch my breath. I texted my friends and told them I left early because I didn't feel well and walked the rest of the way home. Alone. In the dark.


I started to pass the Higourashi shrine but I noticed the bright light from before. Is the little boy back? Is this his way of getting my attention? Maybe it was the adrenaline still running through my body but something gave me the courage to run up there without even thinking. I ran straight to the little shack beside the tree and slammed open the door. The little boy was not there but the light was shining brighter than ever. I have to see what this is... I walked over to the well and peared inside. Didn't see anything else besides the light.

Then I heard a giggle from behind me.

I went to turn my head but it was too late, something pushed me right inside and I was falling and falling inside the well...
