Chapter 5
Sam smiled as she finished getting ready for the upcoming Vortex Club party, she paused to check her reflection in the mirror. She had styled her hair into it's usual bun, not bothering with make-up as usual. She had dressed up in a plaid mid-thigh length skirt with black leggings underneath a black tank-top and a pair of simple sneakers, finally she pulled on her usual black leather jacket and was satisfied she was ready.
Leaving her dorm room she began to make her way towards the exit when she heard her name being called. Turning around she grinned, seeing the other girls present too. She noted everybody was prepared in their new clothes, her eyes seemed drawn to Ashley first, taking in her appearance, apart from a dark smokey eyeshadow Ashley hadn't really bothered with make-up either.
Clothing wise Ashley had chosen a red blouse with a plaid jacket over it, she also wore denim short shorts and calf-high boots along with fishnet stockings.
Jess meanwhile wore a dark green designer jacket over a white blouse, fashionably ripped blue jeans and a pair of designer boots while Emily wore a silver low-cut top that gave a generous view of her cleavage, she also wore black leggings, a pair of designer boots with a silver necklace and black earrings, both wore simple make-up that enhanced their already considerable beauty.
Grinning at the others Sam spoke up.
"Hey, good to see you guys, where's Hannah and Beth?"
Emily was the one who answered. "They already got ready and headed out, they'll be at the hall already."
Sam nodded. "Ah, okay then, let's go, see if we can find the guys before we head to the hall."
The girls agreed and they began to make their way out of the dorms. Sure enough they found the boys waiting in the dorms courtyard.
"Hey, there you are." Mike greeted them as he saw them.
"Hi." Sam greeted.
Jess laughed. "Did we keep you waiting."
They all laughed as Jess hurried up to her boyfriend, meanwhile the others all walked together too. Like the girls, the boys had dressed up their best. Mike for example had acquired a Blackwell letterman jacket which he wore over a white tank-top, he also wore blue jeans and red sports shoes.
Josh meanwhile wore a brown turtleneck over his white undershirt, blue jeans and black sneakers. Sadly despite everything they had tried Chris hadn't been invited. Matt meanwhile had rejected the invitation. Emily meanwhile refused to miss the party.
"Well, c'mon, let's get going." She insisted.
So together they headed for the hall, finding Hannah and Beth had in fact not entered the hall yet. They were waiting for them outside.
Beth straightened up, grinning.
"About time you guys." She remarked.
Sam grinned, both twins had also dressed up well. Hannah wore a black button-up shirt that was slightly low cut, a black necklace, dark blue jeans and black slip-ons. Meanwhile Beth wore a blue shirt with a wide neckline, wide enough that the straps of her dark blue bra partially showed. She also wore dark blue jeans and black slip-ons along with a blue beanie, as was typical of her.
Hannah smiled, shifting nervously. "C'mon, we...we better get in."
Nodding Sam led the way as they all entered the all, immediately consumed by the music.
"Whoa...this is...loud." Ashley muttered.
Sam grinned. "Tell me about it."
Josh nodded too. "Well c'mon guys, we better get going, let's get out there and dance."
While Ashley and Hannah were both hesitant; the others all grinned and soon followed, but even as they followed them at last, they were wary of a few people. Especially as they could see them plain as day, clearly at home here, already 'owning' the scene. Namely, Victoria, Courtney, Taylor and Nathan. All them standing out in their expensive clothes.
Victoria for instance wore a pair of denim shorts, shorter and more designer than Ashley's, the same with her fishnets. She also wore Mary-Jane style shoes and a red button-up blazer with a gold collar. Meanwhile Nathan was dancing alongside her, a designer white T-shirt with a red jacket over it, fresh blue jeans and red shoes.
Courtney and Taylor meanwhile seemed to be competing to see who could show the most cleavage, Courtney with her white blouse, Taylor with her black shirt. Courtney added a gold chain, black skinny jeans and black slip-ons while Taylor wore a black mini-skirt, black hi-heels and a black leather jacket.
As the party wore on, Ashley found herself still awkwardly watching from the sidelines. She bit her lip as she found herself watching Sam again, once more conflicted about her feelings. Sam was with Hannah and Beth, talking to Dana, Juliet and their boyfriends, Trevor and Zachary.
'How do they make it look so easy, I got dressed in this, the make-up and still didn't feel right, but look at them...' She thought to herself.
It was true, both girls looked amazing, Dana even looked somewhat daring wearing only a black sports bra with a long sleeve fishnet top with her ripped blue jeans and black sneakers. Juliet meanwhile wore a white thin strapped tank top with a pink bra underneath, the straps were somewhat visible, she also wore a denim mini-skirt with knee high boots and a gold necklace.
Trevor and Zachary were also dressed up well, Trevor in a blue hoodie with yellow moose design over a black t-shirt, a navy blue beanie, grey jeans and black skate shoes. Zachary wore his usual grey and white stripped hoodie over a grey Blackwell Bigfoots t-shirt, dark jeans and black shoes.
Turning away Ashley tried to clear to mind, briefly taking note of the only other two people present that she knew well. Hayden, dressing a grey 'North side' T-shirt with blue jeans and black shoes, and Logan, clad in his Blackwell letterman jacket over his usual red football jersey, blue jeans and red shoes.
'This is getting too much for me. I, I need some air.' She thought to herself.
So, Ashley finally managed to detach herself from the crowd and made her way outside.
Shaking her head she stepped a short way from the building, breathing in the refreshing air. 'God, what is wrong with me these days. I get so worked up about everything now...Especially around Sam...'
She shook her head as her mind wandered towards the blonde again. She began to wonder. But then, at that moment she cried out as suddenly, she felt a sharp sting in her neck, which made her stumble.
"Wh-what..." She gasped.
But her vision blurred rapidly and before she knew it, she fell, engulfed in blackness.
End of chapter, hope you enjoyed it, read and review please.
