June 15th, The day of Briar's party and the last day of school

Ah, the last day of school. The crowded halls of Ever After High buzzed with hexcitement about school ending for a month and Briar's party. The girls walked with smiles on their faces, bragging to their friends about what dress they were going to wear or who they were bringing as their date. The guys were on their best behavior, hoping to charm the girls and make a good impression for the party. Everyone was super hexcited, Especially Raven, Apple, Ashlynn, Dexter, Hunter, and Daring. They couldn't wait to see where Briar was taking them! Of course, Briar was the happiest of all on the last day of school. She just had to sit back and admire her success. The whole school was talking about her party, and her friends were super happy to go on her surprise trip. She smiled, knowing that the whole school was talking about HER. They were looking forward to HER party. Everything was going great!

In the last class of the day, all the students sat impatiently and stared at the clock.

Only 12 more minutes until school is over,

Raven thought to herself.

And then it's time for a party and a vacation!

She was at the edge of her seat with excitement. She glanced at Dexter who was in the row in front of her and smiled. He turned around and winked back at her. He was every bit hexcited as she was. Finally, in what seemed like HOURS, the bell signaling the end of school rang. Everyone in the class threw their books and pencils off their desks and jumped up.

"WOOOOOO HOOOOOOOO!"

They screamed, and bolted out the door in clumps. Papers flew everywhere. Unfinished homework assignments covered the ground. Broken, chewed up pencils rolled all over. Raven smiled and greeted Dexter at the door. Hunter, who was also in their class, joined them, and they all walked to their dorms.

"See you in a few hours!"

Raven said, as she entered her and Apple's dorm room, leaving Hunter and Dexter to walk back to their dorm.

"See ya!"

Hunter said, waving.
"Bye babe. I can't wait!"

Dexter blew her a kiss and walked off with Hunter. Raven smiled and closed the door to her dorm. It was time to finish packing!

7:00 PM, at the Sexy Secrets Club (The location of Briar's party)

Briar was at the Sexy Secrets Club, preparing all the last minute party things.

"The party starts at 7:30…. Only 30 minutes to get everything prepared!"

She muttered to herself. Of course she was already in her party dress. She wanted to show off to all the other guests, so she made sure she had the best dress there. It sparkly and black, and was just below knee length. At the waist, it had a hot pink ribbon tied around the dress. It was tied in a bow in the back. The dress was sleeveless. On the top of the right side of the dress was a pretty pink rose, truly matching Briar's style. Below the ribbon, the dress was ruffly with pink thorns that matched the color of her ribbon and rose. (The thorn pattern looks like the original Briar doll's leggings.) She finished the outfit with a few essential accessories: Tall, shiny black heels, a silver necklace and bracelet, and a hot pink clutch with a small rose on it. Her hair was crimped and very voluminous, she had even had her pink highlights touched up. On the left side of her hair, there was a small rose clip. Briar sighed. She was ready. The neon green clock above the bar read 7:23. Only 7 minutes until the party started! Briar rushed around, double checking everything. The caterers had already delivered the food, and it was arranged neatly only a big buffet table next to the bar, where the two bartenders waited patiently to serve their underaged customers. Briar was glad they were willing to serve alcohol to minors and risk being caught by the cops- she promised them a big tip and a bottle of alcohol each to take home for free. Melody Piper, the DJ, started playing a party playlist, as she saw it was 7:29. Briar ran her fingers through her hair and went to the club entrance, ready to greet her guests. The first to arrive were Madeline Hatter, Lizzie Hearts, Alistair Wonderland, and Kitty Cheshire. Of course the wonderlandians would be first people to arrive- they never missed a chance to party!

"Oh, hi Briar bear!"

Maddie exclaimed, throwing her arms around Briar and giving her a big hug.

"Woah,"

Briar laughed, not expecting the hug.

"Hey Mad Maddie."

"Oh, pleaseeeeee tell me, did you get your caterers to deliver any tea?"

Maddie threw her hands in the air for some reason. Maybe to express that she was desperately in need of tea? It was always a dramatic entrance with Maddie.

"You'll be happy to know I ordered a pot of green tea. I thought of you when placing the order."

Briar laughed, pointing to the buffet table.

"Oh, goody!"

Maddie said, running to the table. The other wonderlandians ran to the dance floor and starting dancing to the top hits of 2014. As it got later in the night, the club started to fill up with students ready to have the time of their lives. Apple and Daring arrived at about 8:15. They went up to the bar, where Briar sat, talking to Blondie. Briar got up when Apple and Daring approached her.

"Hey guys! Welcome to the par-tay!"

She said, a virgin cocktail in her hand. She was trying to stay sober so she could be a good hostess and be able to really let loose towards the end of the party.

"Hey! This party is awesome! Everyone looks like they are having such a nice time."

Apple said, holding hands with Daring.

"Thanks girl!"

"No problem, bestie. Hey, can we talk alone?"

"Sure. Hey Blondie, I'll be right back!"

Briar called to Blondie, walking to the corner with Apple and Daring.

"So we're still going to the hotel after this, right?"

Daring asked.

"Of course! We go back to our dorms first and get our stuff, then we get in a cab. I already rented one. I'm saving the limo for tomorrow morning!"

Briar explained, sipping her drink.

"Awesome! I'll be on the dance floor if you need me. You coming, Daring?"

Apple pulled Daring out on to the dance floor and waved to Briar. Briar headed back to the bar to chat with Blondie.

Around 12 AM, the party was at full swing. Most students were drunk and dancing with random classmates. Briar laughed at them. She decided it was time for a drink.

"One fruit cocktail, please."

Briar told one of the bartenders. She watched the bartender mix her drink and pour it into a glass.

"Here you go. 9 dollars."

Briar slipped the bartender a ten dollar bill.
"Keep the change."

Briar took her drink and headed to the dance floor.

Meanwhile….

"Hey, Raven, wanna take a break from dancing and grab some food?"

Dexter asked Raven, as the song that was playing came to an end.
"Sure! I'm starved."

Raven followed him to the buffet.

"Look at all this food! I have to try everything."

Dexter grabbed a plate and began piling one of every food on to it. Raven followed him, also taking a little bit of everything. Once they were done getting food, they stood near the dance floor to people watch and eat.

"Want me to grab you a drink at the bar?"

Raven asked, taking a big bite from the chicken leg on her plate.

"Sure. I'll have a margarita."

Dexter replied. Raven went up to the bar to order.

"Two margaritas please."

The bartender made the drinks and Raven paid. On her way back to see Dexter, Duchess walked in front of her, blocking her from getting where she was trying to go.

"Duchess, please move."

Raven sighed.

"Calm down! I was just going to ask a question."

Duchess said. She grabbed one of the drinks Raven was carrying and took a big sip.

"Hey! That's for Dexter!"

Raven yelled, trying to grab the drink back. Duchess took another sip when Raven tried to take it from her.

"Not anymore. Anyway, I just wanted to know…. A couple days ago, Hunter and Dexter were talking about doing somethings after this party. What is it? I need to be there."

Duchess hissed, finishing the margarita.

"Duchess, that is none of your business. You already took my drink, you're not taking my time either."

Raven tried to walk around Duchess, but she blocked her path yet again.

"Duchess, I swear if you don't move…"

Raven warned.

"What? You can't hurt me."

"Bitch."

"WHAT did you say?!"

"I called you a BITCH! And I'll do it again!"
Raven shouted. Before she could stop herself, she took the remaining margarita and poured it all over Duchess' hair.

"AAAAAH!"

Duchess screeched. The whole club stared at the two girls.

"You… you… you MONSTER!"

Duchess screamed at Raven, pointing a finger.

"I can point too."

Raven said. With that, she gave Duchess the middle finger.

"Raven. You just made a BIG MISTAKE."

Duchess lunged at Raven, knocking her to the ground. They rolled around, kicking, punching, name calling and pulling each other's hair.

"Get OFF of me!"

Raven screamed, giving Duchess' hair a sharp tug.

"You should have thought about that when you CALLED ME A BITCH!"

Duchess continued to scratch and kick Raven.

"Cause it's TRUE! BITCH! BITCHY BITCH BITCH!"

Raven fought back, scratching stronger and kicking harder. Melody Piper left the music playlist on but looked at the girls with the rest of the club. Briar and Dexter saw what was going on and rushed over to pull the girls apart.

"Guys! STOP! STOP!"

Briar yelled, grabbing Duchess.

"Raven! What the hell?!"

Dexter looked at Raven.

"Ask HER! She stole your drink and pushed me TOO far! I had to do SOMETHING!"

Raven pointed an accusing finger at Duchess, who had got up and was combing through her hair with her fingers. She pulled a swan shaped compact from her pocket to check her makeup.

"UGH! You ruined my makeup, and my hair is SOAKED and SCREWED UP!"

Duchess screamed.

"Well that's TOO DAMN BAD, DUCHESS!"

Raven yelled even louder. Dexter had to hold her back from attacking Duchess again.

"Calm down, Raven! Let's go back to the dorms before we leave."

Dexter tried to calm Raven.

"HA! I knew you guys were going somewhere, and I WILL find out where it is."

Duchess yelled, stomping to the bar. Raven heard her order two more margaritas- for herself.

"Briar, I'm taking Raven to the dorms, Meet us there after the party when you all are ready to go."

Dexter told Briar, guiding Raven to the exit. Seeing that the fight was over, the students turned back to the dance floor and continued partying. Briar stared at Dexter and Raven as they left. This was a crazy party, for sure.
