|Chapter Eight|

Daphne had been dancing with Fred most of the evening until she noticed Velma sitting down on the stairs with a red cup in hand. Daphne looked up at Fred, she gave him a chaste kiss. "I'm gonna check on Velma, she looks a bit lonely." said Daphne.

"It's okay, I'm gonna go get a drink. Want one too?" asked Fred.

"Yes, please." replied Daphne, walking away and going up to Velma.

Velma noticed Daphne and gave her a sad smile, "I'm thinking of heading off soon." said Velma.

"Why?!" exclaimed Daphne. "It's only been a hour or two since we've gotten here."

"Eh." said Velma.

"Where's Shaggy?" asked Daphne.

"I don't know, I haven't seen him since we got here. His friend is cute though." replied Velma, taking a sip from her cup.

Daphne sat down next to Velma then, "Oh really. What's his name?"

"Greg, I think?" replied Velma.

"Interesting." said Daphne.

Greg came up to Daphne and Velma, sitting in between them. "Well, what are you both chatting about ladies?" Daphne was confused as to who this person was but Velma gave a signal saying that it was Greg.

"Oh nothing much. Look, here comes my boyfriend." said Daphne, standing up and grabbing the drink from Fred's hand.

"Who is this?" asked Fred, giving Greg a bad look.

"I'm Greg. Shaggy's friend." Greg took his hand out, waiting for Fred to take out his hand so he can shake his hand.

"Oh." said Fred, he got bad vibes from him.

Greg placed his hand down, he already didn't like this guy. "Well, I'm Fred. Daphne's boyfriend." said Fred, placing his arm around Daphne's waist.

"Oh that's her name? Daphne." replied Greg. I know Shaggy's friends now...great.

"Yes, well we are gonna go and dance now." said Fred, he looked at Velma. "If you need anything, let us know." Velma nodded.

Daphne gave Velma a look that basically said 'talk to him, he is cute'. Velma smirked and shrugged slightly.

"What's so funny?" asked Greg, turning to look at Velma. "Oh, it's nothing." replied Velma.

"Hah, are you sure? I have a feeling your friend just gave you the queue to give me a chance." said Greg.

Velma chuckled, "Um, well your not wrong."

Greg moved closer to Velma then, "What do you see in him?"

Velma's eyes widen. "Him?"

"Shaggy." Greg replied.

Velma sighed and took another sip from her drink. "Oh...he told you?"Greg nodded.

Greg moved closer to Velma, he gently bit his lower lip, "He is an idiot. If you would've told me that you had feelings for me, oh man...the things that I'd do to you."

Velma felt her breath catch in her throat, she was fixated on the way he had bit his lip. Velma couldn't deny that Greg was attractive, the rebellious look and his mysterious eyes had her instantly hooked. Velma grew quiet, she moved slightly in her place. Greg realized so he moved back. "Sorry, that was a little too much right?" he asked.

"Uh...yeah." she said, she felt uneasy.

"My bad...I'll just go then." Greg was about to stand up but Velma placed her hand on his arm. "No wait," she said, "Stay."

Greg moved closer to Velma again, "Yes?"

"I really want to forget about him...it just hurts too much. He already has another girl. I've seen the love bites on him." said Velma. Greg wanted to smile, little did she know was that he was the reason for those hickeys on Shaggy.

"Do you trust me?" asked Greg, looking deep into Velma's eyes.

"Um...I don't know, I mean, I barely just met you-" said Velma.

"Yes or no?" said Greg.

Velma hesitated, "Yes."

Greg stood up and grabbed Velma's hand pulling her up. Greg started walking up the stairs, Velma followed.

"Where are we going?" asked Velma. "Somewhere quiet." replied Greg.

Greg took Velma into a secluded bedroom. The room became insanely quiet even though outside the door there was the loud bass coming from the music that shook the whole house.

Velma stood there awkwardly as Greg walked over to the bed and sat on it. Greg took out a small bag of pills out of his jacket. Velma's eyes widen. "What are you doing?" she asked.

"This is Xanax" said Greg, giving her a look. He took a pill and placed it on Velma's hand, "Take it."

Velma stood there nervously, she looked down at the small tablet in her hand. "I don't know..."

"Its just one, it isn't gonna do you harm." replied Greg.

Velma sighed and she threw it inside her mouth and swallowed hard. She stared down at her feet when she had taken the Xanax.

Velma looked back up at Greg, he was sitting down on the edge of the bed. He had a joint between his lips, he had just lit it up with a lighter. He inhaled the substance and a big fog of smoke came out of his nostrils.

Greg took away the joint away from his lips, he looked at Velma up and down slowly. "Sit next to me." he said.

Velma hesitated but she walked slowly over to the bed and she sat next to him. Greg placed the joint against his lips again, he stared at the wall. Velma just stared at his lips, watching him take the joint away from his lips again and seeing another big fog of smoke come out of his mouth.

Velma was mesmerized by the blue eyes that stared intently into her own brown eyes then. Greg placed a hand on the side of Velma's face, he leaned into her face and blew a fog of smoke on her lips. Velma coughed loudly, the smell was overwhelming.

Greg placed the joint in between Velma's lips but she shook her head and took the thing away from her mouth. "I don't smoke..." she said.

"But I thought you wanted to forget about him?" Greg asked. Velma frowned, "Not like this."

"You just popped a pill right now, so you can't really say that." said Greg.

Velma sighed, "You better not tell anyone that I did drugs..."

Velma placed the blunt back in her lips, she took in a deep breath and coughed a lot afterwards.

"It smells really bad...it's giving me a headache." Velma said. Greg smirked, "But it takes your mind off things, off of certain people." Greg leaned in and placed a kiss on Velma's lips.

Velma was surprised but she closed her eyes and quickly kissed back. Greg grabbed Velma's hair hard, he held her still so he can more control of the kiss. Greg kissed rather quickly, he bit Velma's lip hard and she winced saying "Ouch!"

Greg smirked, "Didn't you like that?" he placed his hand on Velma's lap, his hand was running up her inner thigh. Velma's eyes widen and she closed her thighs shut.

Velma started moving away then, "Um not really..."

"Are you a virgin?" asked Greg. Velma was taken back, "That's kinda personal."

"So was the kiss but you kissed me back." said Greg, leaning in to kiss Velma. Velma touched her lips nervously, "Yes I am..."

"I see...Shaggy likes them as virgins." replied Greg placing his forehead against Velma's forehead.

Velma started seeing everything spin and blur at the same time, she pushed Greg away.

"Um...I need to leave...I'm starting not to feel good..." she said.

"C'mon baby, I'll make it special." said Greg, placing his hands on Velma's waist again.

Velma instantly stood up and shook her head, "No..." She felt the ground moving beneath her feet. "I'm not ready to do that stuff." She started walking towards the door but she tripped and fell. Greg stood up and walked over to Velma's body.

Shaggy suddenly opened the door to the bedroom and froze up. "What the fuck?" he said bluntly.

Greg looked up at Shaggy and grinned.
