Sorry for the wait ._.
HAPPY NEW YEARS (Even though it's two days later. OTL)
And, OOC-ness is a bitch
Anyway, I actually made this an important plot point instead of a filler *LE GASP* So, there's gonna be A WHOLE LOTTA CHANGES in the later chapters.
Nothing major, but I wanna make my OC less of Mary-Sue, She seems kinda derpy right now- So I wanna make her more of a badass. BUT, there has to be something to trigger that inner...whatever the hell that is. I'm sorry if it seems really OOC and sudden, but I figured this would be better than what I started her off as. Hope you understand.
Thanks for all the support for the story, and I hope now that it's a new year- I can keep making it better and more interesting for you guys :) THANKS A BUNCH!
NOTE: What would you say about a TITLE CHANGE guys? The title I have is like...the title of twenty billion other stories of different fandoms. Any suggestions? I'm sorta getting bored with the title too /is bipolar when it comes to Titles OTZ
Now that I'm done talking- LET US CONTINUE WITH THE DISCLAIMER
Disclaimer: I do not own Homestuck.
Enjoy! R&R
~~CINNAMIZZY~~
"I told you to get outta my face." I say as I slam the locker in front of me.
I swore if I heard another word come out of her mouth, I would punch her face in. Rage had built up ever since Christina started taunting me about Saige. I'm not going to lie, I've liked Saige for a LONG time, and I DO MEAN a long time. Since like, the third grade? There was just something about him I liked. I'm not even sure what myself. I know what you're thinking "What a dumb Mary-sue. Saige AND Karkat? Someone needs to find a new corner to work on." I hate to break you're hopes and whatever, but me and him aren't like that- and by him I mean Karkat. Probably not what you were expecting since we've been acting "buddy-buddy" for the past few days, Am I right? I see him as as someone too look out for me, not a boyfriend. You've probably also noticed my attitude has really changed from when we last have spoken correct? Let's just say I get pretty ticked when I get constant shit from somebody, since this isn't the very FIRST time.
Anyway, I've said too much...
...
As you can see, I have a BIGGER ISSUE to deal with.
"All I was saying is that Saige is mine. Mine only. Problem? It's not like you LIKE him do you."
I balled my fist so hard that I felt my nails digging into the flesh of my palm. Do I REALLY need this shit during the Holiday season? "That's none of your concern." I say looking down at the floor.
"Aw...Something wrong? I didn't hurt your FEELINGS did I?"
I have never had such a burning desire for someone to hit there face on the nearest side-walk until now. This has been going on for a couple days now, and I was ready to grind her face to the ground, but the last thing I need is to get expelled out of school for "Disorderly Conduct and/or Behavior."
"Don't you have something better do than reanact the movie "Mean Girls" to me? Go find an audiance who gives a shit." I said, actually looking into her eyes right now.
"TWAT? I CUNT hear you...Speak a little louder honey." She says while coming closer to me as if she didn't catch a word of what I said.
I glance up at the clock. All I wanted to do was go home...
*RIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNGGGGGG!
"OH! That's my bell. Catch you later dork."
Bah-humbug. As soon as I see her out of sight I bang my head onto the locker at least three times chanting "Fuck me, Fuck me, Fuck me."
Don't worry Maxine. You're party is tonight, you're friends are gona be there back from their stupid vacation and everything will be okay.
"Um...excuse me. Are you okay?"
I turn around and see guy with large black galsses- You know, like the 3D glasses they use at the movies? They pretty much look like those except punch out the lenses. and blue sweater holding his books and looking as if he just saw a ghost. Probably scared the kid half to death with my emo-panic-attack thing.
"Yeah, just a little stressed out. Who are you?" I say putting my hand on my forehead. Ow...that wasn't a smart move.
"O-Oh! Eh-heh, I'm John Egbert. Nice to meet ya~" He holds out his hand akwardly to shake.
"Oh. You're one of the new middle-schoolers. Forgot you guys had some classes in this part of the building. Yo." I shake his hand.
"I hope I don't sound rude, but why are you all alone?"
"All my friends are outta town and the the only one that IS here is in another grade, and went on without me. Their coming to my house tonight anyway so I don't really care. I could ask the same about you too kid."
"I lost them in the hallway." He says laughing to himself.
"Well...it's elective. What do you take, I can probably walk you over there if we take the same one or your's is close enough..."
"Really? Wow, thanks! I'm in Art."
"Me too. I Didn't know you liked to draw..."
"Yeah, I'm not a Michaelangelo but I do try my best."
For the first time in last couple of days, I smile my usual dorky brace-face smile. I didn't say anything, but turned around started walking.
"Hey wait! Hold up!"
"Woah! You draw really well!" I turn around and see Egbert over my shoulder, looking fascinated. "How did you lean to draw like that? It's so...COOL!"
I chuckle. "Thanks. I just practiced a lot."
"I hope I learn to draw as good as you!"
Never have someone said that to me. It made me feel...kinda badass. "Wow, thanks..No one's ever told that to me before. Thanks you." I awkwardly scratch the back of my head. I'm really not used to being complimented
"Well they should! Wow! Look Dave, look how good she draws!"
The blond looks over my shoulder as well. "...Hm. Pretty ironic I guess."
"How can even see through those damn shades anyway?" But I only said that in my head, so he didn't hear it. He grunts and leaves. "Don't mind him, he's always like that." John chuckles awkwardly.
"Eh. I don't mind. Everyone's a critque." Shrugging off, I turn in my paper and grab another one and continue. But, that John kid kept looking over my shoulder. He's a good kid, I can tell he's the odd one out but tries to get along with everyone no matter what. I'll admit I wish I were a little like that...
meh. I'm not going to bore you with this mushy heartfelt shit, so let's move on shall we?
The bell rings and I go back to my classroom, and pack my crap before a CERTAIN Queen Bitch gets in my way.
I couldn't wait to leave. I couldn't wait to go home, lie on the bed and chill out at home while waiting for my friends. For the first time, I actually wanted to go home to the chaos that awaited me...
Plus, I got Guitar Hero 3, Band Hero, and "Whatever-The-Hell-The-Name-Is-Of-That-Dancing-Game-Is" 3.
I laid back on the locker and waited for Saige. In my mind, I had hope that he actually wanted to come walk home with me and stuff since the rest of our group was out and about. I had hope. It was 50/50 chance though. He ditched us for his Girlfriend more than once.
Does he really like her that much?
Shaking those thoughts away, I waited for Saige in our usual spot. Afer five minutes, I got a little impatiant and looked over the crowd.
He was smile was a lot different when I saw him with her. She was giggling and probably trying to be as cute as possible, and it looked like she was doing a pretty damn good job. He looked like he was more than a lot of fun though...like...he didn't want to be anywhere else but there...with HER.
I couldn't help but cringe at the sight of them so happy. It looked so much like a scene in movie. They looked...
PERFECT.
So, with the little respect I still had of myself- I decided to just leave them alone and walk home indivusually.
It doesn't matter if she hates me, or gives me hell everyday. He's happy. If that's the sacrfice I have to make then so be it.
Everything happens for a reason.
"Hey! Wait up! Maxine is that you?"
I turn around and see little Egderp and three friends with him.
"Oh hey Egbert. What's up, you need something?"
"I was just wondering if you wanted to come with us! You seem a little down, and I saw your friend with someone else."
I cringe again. He doesn't know, but that doesn't make it hurt anyless.
"Oh..yeah. He can't make it. That okay! You don't worry about me." I fake smile "You don;t want an old hag like me ruining your style." I chuckle.
"Hey you're ony 15! We aren't much younger than you. We really don't mind, We all live in the same neighborhood so no biggie."
Rose smirks and Jade gives me her usual goofy smile.
Dave as usual, is expressionless.
I shrug. The other will probably think it's weird that I'm walking home with these dweebs but you know what?
... Who gives a fuck anymore?
"I guess I can join ya'll." I smirk and stick my hands in my hoodie-pockets.
Thanks God...Glad you heard me.
"I don't even know why I bother." I sigh as I kicked pebbles from off the sidewalk. The kids and I departed ways after we hit John's house which was a block away.
I was finally able to calm myself in private. "This SUCKS!" I scream kicking another pebble into the street.
"HEY YOU! YEAH YOU! What's with pebble kicking!"
I turn around and see a girl, more or less my age- hanging out in the tall Oak tree that I assumed that was in her yard. She had icey blue eyes that looked unreal and short and spiky raven colored hair that was barely passed her ears. She was wearing black blue-jean shorts. a hoodie, and a gray beanie.
"Nothing."
"Now we BOTH know better that when someone says nothing is wrong- SOMETHING is up. "
"If you don't mind me asking, who the hell are you?"
She snickers and swings of the tree.
"I'm Erin! You're new neighbor!"
"Okay cool, we I've gotta go. See ya." I wave off and turn around walking the other direction.
"HEY! Wait! I've gotta ask you something!" Erin says
I turn back. "Yeah?"
"You like Homestuck."
"That's not a question." I respond.
"Then lets make it one! DO you like Homestuck?" Erin asks almost pursausivly. "Yeah so." I stick my hands in my pockets. Sorry, but I REALLY just want to go home.
"You have trolls at your house, and I as a Gemini, want to see my patron. SO how about it?" She smirks like the Chesire cat.
"You...want to what?".
"Don't play dumb~ You don't have to lie. We know, because we saw. Unless, me and my sister are going crazy." She says smiling once again.
How the FUCK did they figure this out? "You're nuts. I'm outta here." With all my confidence I turned around again and walked home.
"If I'm nuts, you're MENTAL!" She screams happily from the distance.
Glad I'm not the only weirdo around these parts...
"I'm home." I say bluntly as I throw my backpack thoughtlessly on the couch. Hm...it was kinda quiet. Seems like everyine must be doing their own thing. Huh. Guess I should be grateful.
I lock the door behind me and find a familar blond boy chilling on my couch.
"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING HERE STRIDER? HOW DID YOU-"
So much for chillaxing at home.
"Calm your tits, Your friend sent me here. Believe me, you think I want to hang out at dump like this?"
"Watch your mouth Strider." I say glaring at him. "Which friend?"
"The blond one."
I sigh. Of course. "Well could you at least tell me why she said you needed to be here."
"You need dancing skills."
"Excuse me?"
"Lets face it, you can't dance worth a shit. You're party is TONIGHT and if highschoolers have taught me anything- it's that they're not afraid to party and dance like there's no tomorrow."
"We're not in STEP IT UP Strider, cut the crap." I won't say it isn't true though. I knew a few dance moves here and there but I honestly wouldn't know what to do unless I watched everyone else and imitated it.
"It doesn't matter. I'm here to teach you though."
I suddenly burst out laughing. It went to the point I thought I would bust a gut and die on the floor. "YOU! A tiny-tot 13 year old is going to teach ME to dance." I kept on laughing.
"What, you don't think I've got moves?"
I finally start to calm myself and say "No not really."
He scoffs and switches on the radio. The song MOVES IKE JAGGER comes on as if it was supposed to be on que.
"Come here."
"HELL no! I know better than to do that!"
"Fine then. Just watch and observe."
RIght in front of me, he did the exact moves perfectly from the music video (or at least as perfect as it gets)
"Holy...Shit."
He shuts off the radio. "Beleive me now?"
I nod "Ah-huh. But how are you supposed to teach me all that, in the matter off...three hours?"
"I'm not. You're going to teach yourself, but I'll give you a piece if advice."
"What?"
"You have a pair of legs and arms that a perfectly fucking capable moving. Use them."
With that, Strider turns his back and waves. Leaving me in the middle of the room wondering how the hell I'm supposed to work this out.
I hate that kid...
The music was pumping loud and clear and evryone was dancing. Yes, including me. How I did it? Let's just say, Dancing video games make a HUGE difference.
Okay I practiced too and had Dave teach me some moves, Shut the fuck up.
Overall the party was going nicely. Everyone was dancing and having a good-time. Only problem is. I was surprised that the football team, Some 10th graders, McKenzie AND Riley all showed up. Overall, it was a better turn out than I expected, even WITH the trolls here. Beats me how they explained their obviously unusual appearance.
Only one question remains...
HOW THE HELL DID 200 PLUS PEOPLE END UP AT MY HOUSE?
The fact that I thought Anissa and Kylie actually had this under control blows my mind.I sit down on the couch and take off my shoes. Fuck those things, my feet are throbbing!
"Whoah is that you Maxine? You actually planned this party?"
I turn around and see John. "Oh hey there John. Yep I planned it out with my friends. This is my house though."
"Really? You must be popular!"
He's such a nice kid. "Thanks. But you saw me today right? Haha, dar from it dude. Anyway, you having fun. We're the rest of your crew?"
"Yeah I lost Dave...He was here a minute ago..."
Suddenly my phone vibrates.
"Almost 9:00. Tell everyone it's time." The text read.
"Aw hell." I sigh.
I get up from my seat still currently bare-foot and jump onto the table. Saige hands me my mega-phone and I grab my bull-horn. With that, I grab my head-phones from around my neck and squeeze the bull-horn.
"AHHH!"
The room quiets down. "Thank you, Hello gutter-sluts and bubble-butts! As you guys know (or should know) I'm Maxine. Just a little insider, Everyone is going to be playing Seven Minutes in Hell upstairs in the Master bed-room, otherwise known as my room." I say into the mega-phone "You can still party down here but almost everyone is going to be upstairs. Thank you!"
Just then a sea of screaming teenagers run upstairs.
"BALLS!... Dammit!" I jump off the table and try to find all my friends. Shit, they must have gotten up there as soon as they heard the word. I find John flustered on the couch
"You comin'?"
"A-Ah? Are you sure I can go up there? I don't wanna leave Rose sitting here reading all by herself."
"Alright, suit yourself. You can come whenever you're ready."
With that, I run upstairs into my bedroom. I was surprised all these teens could fit in here.
"Hey looks who's here!" My group of friends shouts
"Yo! Guess this means it's time to get this party started. Kylie, would like to explain the rules of this game?"
"Gladly."
We both stand in front of the closet. "Okay, This is an original game that is Truth or Dare mixed with Seven minutes in heavan." Kylie starts.
"The object of the game is to answer the truth or do the dare if you don't want to end up in the closet." I say, motioning to the closet behind us.
"Our friend Mika decides who you go into the closet with. Mind you, he chooses at random. So don't complain or whatever if you don't get who you want." Kylie says pointing over to Mika.
"Our reinforcement is our other friend Equis. This guy is about as strong as Gorilla, so there's no escaping. So if you have second thoughts about the game, please leave now."
The room stands still.
"Alright! Everyone into the circle!" We say at the same time.
everyone forms into a circle and suddenly, I could feel the intesnity.
I really can't tell wether that's a good or bad sign, But...I think I like it?
"I dare...you to Kiss Strider!"
"Oh HELL...WHY?" I groan.
"Because, I wanna see if what Bro said is true." The football player says.
"And that is...?"
"You get a tingly feeling when you kiss a Strider. Like their swag has just taken over your whole body."
"Well if you wanna find out so bad why don't YOU kiss him you dildo." I say.
"Whoah dude! I'm not GAY!"
I sigh. "Fuck you Robert." Flipping him off I drag myself over to Strider. "Come here Strider, let's get this shit overwith.
I soon find myself in front of the infamous blond. "You know, it's POLITE to take off you sunglasses when you kiss somebody."
"Problem?"
"Fuck you." I give him a quick five second peck on the lips, then wipe my mouth and return to my spot in the circle.
"Did you feel anything?" He says excitedly
"I felt like I was kissing a girl. Any more questions Robert?"
The whole room snickers.
"Fuck you! I don't kiss like a girl!"
Ignoring his comment I pick the first person who ctaches my eye. "Sollux. Truth or dare?" Hehe, haven't seen the trolls much today. This should get interesting.
" DARE."
"I dare you to...run up and down the street."
"Well that's eathy."
"With only you're underwear on."
"Are you kidding me?"
"I'm as serious as a heart-attack. Unless, you want end up in the closet."
He shakes his head. "My body ith ready." He takes off his shorts, his pants and run downstairs to fufill his duty.
"...ten bucks says the cops will catch him."
Suddenly all of us gather at the windows. Watching, laughing or doing both. After being stopped by the po-po, Sollux comes back and put son his clothes.
"Fuck you guyths."
So far after thirty minutes, everyone was determined to not get into the closet.
"So Minnie, truth or dare?" Riley asks her. Honestly, I was surprised she was even talking to us.
"Truth."
"If you were to lose your virginity to anyone in this room, who would it be?"
Immediately she turned beet-red. That was the BULLSEYE! In all truthfulness, I wanted her to get in the closet. She still hasn't had her first kiss, and I wanted her to end up with that Special someone.
"W-W-W-wha? R-Riley? I-I-I don't know?"
"Well, I guess it's closet time then."
"I-I-I don't...! W-well I-I...Uh?"
Equis grabs her by the arms and pushes her into the closet.
"Well then, Tavros I guess you're the lucky guy! Get in there you pimp!" Rory, taking matters into his own hands- grabs Tavros' wheel-chair. "W-What? I uh, don't think this is a good idea guys! I-I don't even know how to play!"
Rory, not giving a rat's ass, just rolls him there. The room goes quiet, we were all in awe. Timid and petite Minnie might come out with messy hair and a mark on her neck, or she might come out harmless and we just threw them in there for nothing. It was silent... until I the alarm on my Iphone goes off.
Rory, opens the door and yells "TIMES UP!" Then, looks back at us with a "What the fuck?" face.
As expected, Minnie's hair looked a little different then usual and less neat. Not only that, but the cherry-red blush on her face gave it all away.
"Well...On with the game then!" Anissa says cheerfully
After at least thirty people ended up getting the closet, and I had succesfully avoided every chance to get raped by a stranger in that horribly cramped place (ahem, Closet!) We decided to play the wii and just chill out.
"I can totally beat you at Juth Dance!" Sollux says, all up in my face. "HA! Prove it!" I grab the Wii remote and start the game for two players.
We each give eachother a look of pure competition. "Pick the song." I say tauntingly
"Don't Trust Me by 3OH!3."
May I remind you this song involved a LOT of thrusting, but I wasn't about to lett my sexually awkward self get in the way. "You're on, asshole."
Black dress, with the tights underneath.
I got the breathe of the last ciggerette on my teeth.
And she's an actress,
but she ain't got no need.
She's got money from her parents and a trust-fund back east.
"GO MAXINE GO!"
"KICK HER ASS SOLLUX!"
"Oh~ It's getting intense."
T-T-Tongues. Always press to your cheek
While my tongue is in the inside of some other girl's teeth
You tell you're boyfriend
If he says he's got beef...
That's I'm a vegetarian
AND I AIN'T FUCKING SCARED OF HIM!
I can say we probably looked like idiots with our wii-remotes in hand thrusting and doing crazy dance-moves and shit.
She want's to love me~ Woah
She'll never leave me~ Woa, Woah, Oh Oh.
DON'T TRUST A HOE!
NEVER TRUST A HOE!
DON'T TRUST A HOE!
Don't TRUST ME!
After at least three minutes of this nonsense, it was a draw. Both of our scores were the same. "Shit. I CALL A REMATCH!" I through my arm in the air and suddenly, the wii-remote goes flying, and all you hear is-
"ACK! WWHAT WWAS THAT FOR?"
Wii-remote EPIC FAIL.
"Sorry Eridan, haha. I forgot to put on the safety strap! Hope I didn't blind you." I take the remote and put it safely on the table. With that, I relax on the couch.
"Seems like you're having a good time."
"Yeah I-" I look to the person next to me. Wait...What? "Erin? How did you-?"
"I snuck in of course. It's SOOO easy to crash a party like this. Brought my friends here too!" She says laughing and sipping her Fruit-Punch.
I sigh. "That explains why there are so many people. Guess you know what's up too."
"Of course I do! You're a horrible liar. I even gave them advice on how to not stand-out so much, and make an excuse if anybody asked questions."
Guess Erin is actually a blessing in disguise. Huh. "So...I guess this makes us friends." I mumble.
"Guess so! Also, I need to show you something- so you don't regret it later." She grabs my hand and takes me up the stairs. "Erin? What's going on?"
She takes me up to all the doors in the upper floor. All of them were locked and you clearly hear moaning. I wanted to gag inside my mouth. "See what I mean? People are sexing it up in your house. So, unless you want to clean up their mess I suggest you do something about it." She says. "Plus, when is this part supposed to end? It's great party, but you're house is going to get trashed unless you do something about it." She lectured.
"I know you're right, but the what the fuck am I supoosed to do? There are over 200 people in this place. You care to tell me how I get rid of all them before sun-rise?"
No answer.
"Exactly."
"Not yet, I've got an idea." she says.
