Chapter 3: Chapter 3
The Frat House Party
After their final class, Tiffany, Felicia, Sadie, and Ashley all went back to their dorms to get changed for the party. Sadie and Felicia were rooming together, so they went to Tiffany and Ashley's room to get changed. Since Felicia was the one with the date, Tiffany and Sadie decided to help her get ready.
"Thanks for helping me, you guys." Felicia said as Tiffany curled up the last few strands of her hair.
"Hey, what are friends for? Besides, we couldn't just let you go on your first date lookin' a hot mess." Tiffany said
"True, and trust me tonight you looking nothing short of spectacular." Sadie said
"You're just saying that. Do you really think he likes me?" Felicia asked
"How am I supposed to know? I'm not an expert on men." Sadie said
"Listen, you're going to look great tonight, so there will be no way in hell he'll be able to resist you." Tiffany said
"She's right." Sadie said
Once they were finished with her hair, Sadie started on her make-up. Black eyeliner, mascara, light brown eye shadow, lip-gloss, and light brown lip liner were her choices. After Sadie was finished, Felicia walked into the room and saw a multi knit & print halter dress hanging on the back of the door. Also on the floor by the bed were a pair of black Mary Jane pumps.
"You guys rock. Now, I need you all to get out so that I can get dressed." Felicia said pushing Tiffany out of the room.
"Damn, okay. It's not like we haven't seen you naked before, Felicia." Sadie said with a large smile on her face.
"Shut up Sadie. And even think about bringing it up. It was a long time ago, so just drop it." Felicia said slamming the door.
When Felicia finally got them out of the room, she quickly took the dress off of its hanger and slid it on. Once she tied the bow around her neck, she grabbed the shoes out of their box. When she put them on, they were a perfect fit, and they were comfortable. She stood up and looked at herself in the full-length mirror hanging on the bathroom door.
"Damn do I look hot." Felicia said aloud smiling to herself.
Just then someone started banging on the door, "Are you finished in there, because we still have to get dressed, and Randy's here." Ashley said
"Okay, I'm coming. Just let me grab my purse." Felicia said grabbing the Calvin Klein Quilted Small Crescent Bag off of the bed.
When she opened the door, Randy was standing on the other side wearing a blue dress shirt that was half opened at the top to show off some of his chest, and a pair of black slacks. When he saw her, his jaw dropped to the floor.
"Wow, you look great!" Randy said holding his arm out.
"Thank you and you're looking pretty hot yourself." Felicia said locking her arms with his.
"We'll see you two love birds at the party." Sadie said dragging Tiffany and Ashley into the room.
Felicia just rolled her eyes and headed to Randy's car. When they reached the parking lot, Felicia noticed a black 2007 Honda S2000 sitting in front of her dormitory.
"Is this your car?" She asked quite impressed
"Yes, this little baby is my pride and joy. But don't think I love this car more than anything, because education always comes first to me." He said as he opened the door for Felicia.
"Thank you." She said as he helped her into the car.
"No problem." He said
He closed the door and ran around to the driver side. Once he was in the car, he checked his rear view mirror and adjusted it a bit.
"Are you ready?" He asked
"As ready as I'll ever be." Felicia replied buckling her seatbelt.
When they arrived at the UM Frat House the parking lot was packed. Some people even parked on the grass, but when Randy pulled into the parking lot, there was a reserved parking space with his name on it.
"You have a reserved parking space?" Felicia asked getting more impressed by the minute
"Yeah, I mean being the captain of the football team and all. I guess that's one of the perks of being the head jock." Randy said with a smirk
As Randy and Felicia walked up to the front door, she started to get nervous so she stopped walking altogether.
"What's wrong?" Randy asked
"Nothing, I'm fine." She said as she gripped the black sweater she wore over her revealing dress.
"You're nervous, aren't you?" He asked with a small smirk on his face
"Is it that obvious?" She asked getting a little agitated
"Look, don't worry about. When you walk through that door, everyone will be too busy drinking and acting stupid to even notice." He said holding out his hand
Felicia gave a small smile and grabbed his hand. They interlocked their fingers as Randy rang the doorbell.
When the door opened, Felicia saw the sexiest guy she had ever seen in her life. He was about 6'5", with caramel colored skin, deep brown eyes, short brown hair, and wore a black wife beater to show off his large biceps.
"Hey Dave man, what's up!" Randy said as he guided Felicia into the house.
"Hey everybody, Randy finally decided to join the party." Dave yelled as they walked into the crowded living room.
Felicia saw another cutie sitting on the couch with two blondes. He had on a New England Patriots baseball cap, which was backwards, and a matching jersey to show off his gigantic arms. When he turned around, he started smiling, "Yo Randy what took you so long? We had to start the party without you."
"Look just be glad I'm here now, Cena." Randy said as he smiled at Felicia.
Just then Dave walked up right beside her.
"And who is this gorgeous beauty?" He asked
"Oh Dave, this is Felicia. Felicia this is my best friend Dave Batista. The largest defense UCF has had in years." Randy introduced
"Hi." Is all she managed to get out after Dave kissed her hand.
Just then two girls walked into the house from where the real party was, the backyard.
"Hey Randy." One of them said in a slutty tone.
"What's up Rachel. I thought you weren't going to be able to make it." He said nervously
"Well since I thought you were going to be alone tonight, I wanted to surprise you. But I can see that you replaced me…with a freshman none the less." She said getting an attitude
"You got a problem with me being a freshman?" Felicia said as she raised an eyebrow
"No, I just have a problem with you in general." Rachel spat
"Look, don't get all pissy at me just because Randy wanted to show a new student around campus. We're not dating, and I don't think we could ever date seeing as how he already has a girl." Felicia said getting in Rachel's face.
"I don't who you think you are, but don't just think that because there are guys in the room that I won't kick your ass." Rachel said getting closer to her
"Oh please, I would really like to see you try to hit me. Do it, I dare you." Felicia taunted
John, Randy, and Dave were standing behind Felicia waiting for something to jump off. And Felicia started smiling.
"What the hell are you smiling at?" Rachel asked
"Oh nothing, seeing as how I have three guys standing behind me, and no one standing behind you. That's a damn shame." Felicia said shaking her head
Rachel looked at Randy hoping that he would help her, but he just stood there and looked at her.
"I can't believe you. I blew off a road trip with my parents to come here and this is what I get in return?" Rachel said
Randy walked over to Rachel and grabbed her arm, "Come on, we need to talk."
He pulled her outside on the front porch, and shut the door. Meanwhile, Felicia was sitting at the bar reapplying her lip-gloss. Then College Girls are Easy by The Beastie Boys started blasting on the stereo. Felicia started singing along to the song.
Anywhere I go a fly girl will please me,
East to west college girls are easy…
This story's kinda funny,
Its one about the honeys,
Now Debbie was a girl who used to do it like a bunny.
And how about Mona, her hips was like a motor
I heard she liked to do it in the back of a Toyota.
And then there was Amy, now how can ya blame me?
She wanted it so bad she offered to pay me.
And Vicki and Wheezy, both a bit sleazy,
Cuz all college girls are just too easy!
Then she heard girls start laughing behind her, so she turned around.
"It's about time you idiots got here. What took you three so long?" Felicia asked hopping down off of the stool.
"Well Tiffany decided that she was going to take a two hour shower, so Ashley and I had to wait for her to get out." Sadie said pushing Tiffany in the shoulder.
"Hey! I had to get clean. I'm sorry if hygiene is more important to me than some Frat party." Tiffany said
"Oh really?" said a voice from behind them.
When they turned around all of their mouths dropped to the floor, and Felicia started laughing.
"I'm sorry Dave, you'll have to excuse my friends. They don't get out much." She explained
"Oh that just fine with me. Actually, I wanted to talk to you about something. Do you think we can go somewhere to talk?" He asked
"Sure, excuse me ladies." Felicia said brushing past Sadie and Ashley and grabbed a hold of Dave's hand.
"Lucky bitch." Sadie said under her breath.
Dave and Sadie walked outside and sat on the park bench in front of the frat house.
"So what did you want to talk to me about?" Felicia asked
"Okay, now I know that you really don't know Randy that well and all, but he's a really nice guy and I think he likes you…a lot." Dave explained
"What? Really?" Felicia asked
"I've never seen Randy act like that around girls, especially freshman. I should know…" He said starting to smile a bit.
"And what makes you think he likes me. I mean we don't even know that much about each other." Felicia said
"Look, just take some time to get to him. But I'm warning you right now he has a habit of pushing people away. I've seen it too many times to keep count." He said
"How long have you and Randy been friends?" She asked
"Since we were in diapers. Our moms worked at the same restaurant, and they became really close friends. So we were met to be best friends." He said smiling.
"That sounds like me and my best friend Ashley. We grew up together, but she moved away when we started high school. Now we're attending the same college." She said smiling too
Dave looked at her and saw something familiar about her smile, like he had seen it before.
"Is there something wrong?" Felicia asked
"No, I'm fine. I just zoned out." He said shaking his head a bit.
"I do that too. But I only do that when I'm writing a story." She said
"What kind of stories do you write?" He asked
"Trust me, you don't want to know." She said with a small smirk.
"Oh come on. It can't be that bad." He said playfully bumping her with his shoulder.
Felicia smiled, "Okay, I write romantic/erotic stories."
"Really? That's interesting." He said raising an eyebrow.
"How so?" She asked
"Well, I've never heard of erotic stories or romantic stories." He said
"Really? Well the category really isn't Erotic. It's actually Erotica. So I right Roman and Erotica." She explained
"I'm guessing that you've published some of your work?" He asked
"Nope. Well, at least not yet." She shrugged her shoulders
"I would love to read some of your work. That is if you'll let me." He said
"Sure. I mean I don't have a problem with that it's just that I'm really shy about who reads my stuff." She said
"You shouldn't be. If you got the guts to write sex novels then you should have the guts to let people read it. Especially if it's good." He smiled at her
She looked at him and rolled her eyes. She knew what he was implying.
"You are so disgusting." She laughed
"What! I was just telling the truth. What's wrong with that?" He asked
"Yeah okay, you were being disgusting." She said with a small smirk on her face
"But it got you to smile didn't it?" He asked
"Okay, whatever you say Dave." She said
He quickly shot a look at her, "You remembered my name."
"Of course I remember your name. Why wouldn't I remember your name?" She asked
"I don't know. It's just that some of the girls around tend to forget a lot of things." He said
"I know, but I'm not as much of a klutz as I look." She said
"You don't look like a klutz. And you sure as hell don't sound like one." He said
"Thanks." She said starting to stare at the ground.
Felicia took a look at her watch and saw that it was ten fifteen.
"Hey Dave, do you think we should head back into the house. People might be looking for us." She said
"Oh yeah sure." He said
They both got up and headed back into the UM Frat house. When Batista opened the door, Felicia saw Sadie and John kissing by the stair case. Then Felicia cleared her throat, interrupting their kiss.
"Oh hey Felicia. Where have you been?" Sadie asked getting red in the face.
"I was talking to Dave outside. What are you doing?" Felicia asked with a smirk on her face as she looked at John.
"Actually I was just about to go upstairs with John." She said
Felicia looked at John, and shook her head.
"Can I talk to you for a second?" Felicia asked Sadie
"Sure." Sadie said following Felicia out onto the porch.
When the door was shut Felicia smacked Sadie hard on the shoulder.
"What the hell is wrong with you? You just can't go upstairs with a guy you just met tonight. Besides, you don't know what he's capable of doing." Felicia said getting upset
"Don't worry about it. John's a cool guy, and he would never hurt me." Sadie said
"Whatever hoe. Just know that if you have sex with him unprotected I'm not babysitting." Felicia said walking into the house.
Felicia walked right past Dave and John and headed for the living room. The couch was unoccupied, so she sat down on the couch and started sulking. Then she saw Randy come from the backyard.
"What's wrong?" He asked sitting next to her on the couch.
"Nothing, I'm fine." She said getting an attitude.
"Uh huh, so you're sitting here sulking about nothing. Okay." He said about to get up but Felicia grabbed his arm
"Okay, I'm not okay. My friend Sadie met John, and decided to go upstairs with him." She said
"And you're mad at her why?" Randy asked
"I'm mad at her because she should know not to go upstairs with a guy she just met." Felicia said
"Look, she's old enough to make her own decisions." Randy said
"You don't think I know that. It's just that I thought she would have more sense than that."
Randy walked over to the bar and poured himself a cup of beer from the keg.
"You want a drink?" He asked handing her the cup
"No thank you, I don't drink." She said pushing the cup away
"Alright, suit yourself." He said taking a long swig of his beer
Felicia rolled her eyes and continued to sulk on the couch. Then she felt someone's hand on her shoulder. When she looked up, she saw Dave's face.
"Are you okay?" he asked
"No, and I think I'm ready to go home." She said
"But we haven't danced yet." He said pulling her to her feet
"Do we have to?" She asked whining
"Yes, at least just one dance." He pleaded
Felicia sighed deeply as Batista dragged her out to the backyard. Everyone was standing around talking and drinking beer, but no one was dancing. She noticed Tiffany and Ashley talking to two guys by the pool, but there was no dancing.
"Dave, no one is dancing." She said trying to stop walking.
"Don't worry about it. Just pretend that no one is here but us." He said walking over to the stereo.
Just then "Lost Without You" by Robin Thicke started to play, and Dave walked over to Felicia. He pulled her close to him, and she wrapped her arms around his neck. They started swaying to the slow melody, and Felicia looked Dave. Everyone started staring at them, but they hadn't noticed. Dave and Felicia were completely lost in each other's eyes and the music. When the song ended, everyone started clapping which snapped Felicia and Dave out of their trance. Felicia started to blush, and headed back into the house. That was until someone grabbed her arm, and spun her around. Their lips crashed together in a passionate kiss. Felicia tried to fight at first, but she felt herself surrender and she wrapped her arms around his neck. When she opened her eyes, she saw Randy standing before her with a small smirk on his face.
"What was that for?" She asked
Randy grabbed her hand and dragged her into the house. Once the door was shut, he guided her to the couch to sit down.
"Listen, I know I haven't been the perfect date tonight and I'm sorry. It's just that I'm not used to having such a "mature" girl around. I mean most of the girls I hang out with are either alcoholics, smoke weed, or are into worst shit. But when I saw you dancing with Dave, I found myself starting to get jealous because I knew that that should have been us dancing." Randy explained
"Randy, this is new for me too. I mean I just started my Junior year and I've never been in a relationship." She said
"Wait, wait. You're a Junior?" He asked confused
"Yeah, you thought I was a freshman?" She asked
"Everyone here thinks you're a freshman." He said
"Really, I look like a freshman? Isn't that funny?" She laughed a bit
"So why are you just starting you Junior year here?" He asked
"Because the place I went to college was where I used to live with my…" Felicia trailed off
"Are you okay?" Randy asked
"Um yeah, I just need to get some fresh air. I'll be right back." She said leaving the room
When she got out onto the porch, she was wanted to bang her head on one of the columns.
I am so stupid. I was just about to spill the beans about my marriage, and I can't do that. Well, at least not yet. God how could I be so stupid. I came here to get away from Jason and to completely forget about him. Jason was never apart of my life, so I have to get used to it. I deserve a fresh start.
She then felt someone poke her on her side.
"Would you people stop touching me! Jesus, what is with people always wanting to touch me? Am I that captivating, that you have to touch me every time you want to talk?" She yelled
When she saw who it was, she wanted to mentally kick herself in the ass.
"Sorry for trying to see if you're okay." Sadie said
Felicia sighed, "I'm sorry Sadie. I just have a lot on my mind right now."
Just then Tiffany ran out of the house, "Girls our song is on…Come on!"
Sadie, Tiffany, and Felicia all ran to the backyard, and heard "Take the Lead (Wanna Ride)" blasting on the stereo. Tiffany and Sadie started dancing in front random people, and Felicia ran up on the small stage they had set up and started dancing. Everyone started clapping and cheering as Felicia danced around on the stage. Then she saw Dave and Randy up front, and she motioned for them to get on stage with her. They both walked on stage, and she started dancing with the both of them.
"You go girl!" Tiffany yelled from the crowd
"She is doing our routine!" Ashley yelled
Felicia got lost in the music as she danced on both Randy and Dave. That was until "La Cumparsita (Tango Remix) started playing. Then she searched the crowd for a partner. She then saw her third victim. The guy was about 5'5" with short blonde hair, and wore a black dress shirt with matching slacks. When he got on stage, the crowd was wondering what was going on. That's when the tango started, and Felicia and the "partner" started getting into the dance. Everyone couldn't believe that they were actually doing the tango. Afterwards, Felicia hugged her dance partner and hopped off the stage.
"You worked it up there girl!" Tiffany exclaimed
"Haha, you know how I do, Tiff." Felicia said as she high-fived her friend
"But you were really good. I mean competition good." Ashley said
"Ashley, how many times do I have to tell you? I am not going to compete in that stupid competition. I'm a writer. Dancing is just a hobby." Felicia said as she walked back into the house
Just then someone tickled her sides…
"How many time do I have to tell-." She cut off when she turned around
"Oh, hey Dave." She said
"Felicia you were absolutely fantastic out there. If you weren't known before, the entire galaxy knows who you are now." He said as he hugged her
Then someone cleared their throat, interrupting the moment. Felicia turned to find John Cena standing behind them.
"What's up John?" Batista asked
"Nothing, just came in to get a beer. Can I talk to you for a second. Please excuse us Felicia." John said as they walked upstairs.
Once they were out of site, John punched Dave in the shoulder.
"What the hell was that for!?" Dave exclaimed
"You're trying to make a move on Randy's girl, aren't you?" John asked
"Look John, Felicia is a great girl, and she deserves better." He said
"Randy's trying. He just got back from an injured knee, so you know he's a bit vulnerable right now." John replied
"You and I both know that Randy would break that girl's heart within a week. We both know how he can't keep it in his pants." Dave said
"Damn, this is so messed up. Randy does have a sex problem, but maybe he's trying to work through it." John said
"Work through it? No, Randy's going with the flow…for right now, but when he starts up, there's no getting him to stop." Dave said
"I know, I know. But what are we supposed to do?" John asked
"Prevent her from getting hurt. That's why I'm letting her know that she can trust me. Look, let's just go back down to the party and we'll finish this tomorrow." Dave said
"Iight, just don't make any moves on her…at least not yet." John said
When they went back downstairs, Batista walked into the living room only to find Randy and Felicia making out on the couch. He shook his head and went back upstairs to his room. He flopped down on his bed and stared up at the ceiling.
Felicia better watch herself around Randy. He'll end up hurting her when she least expects it.
