Chapter 2

It was dark out, misty to be exact. It was really only about five O'clock and it started raining, Melissa had looked outside the window with an expressionless look on her face; the party was going to be moved to Saturday, since it was a weekend and most of their friends still have afterschool activities on a Friday . . . and Leanna was a majorette and every Friday was a football game. Enough clowning around, Melissa had took note that Adrienne was sketching out of a sketch diary, seemed like she was sketching an image of a swan and it caused Melissa to approach the couch so suddenly.

"No archery today?" Melissa had asked, Adrienne glanced up at her from her sketch after finishing the touches of the wings. "Not for another hour." Was her answer. Melissa said not a word and just sat herself beside Adrienne to continue watching her draw. Adrienne wasn't any mind to it anyway, it's not like she cared if Melissa was there watching her; it was merely just a hobby.

"You have pretty interesting friends," Adrienne finally broke the silence. Melissa tapped her fingers upon her lap and then waited until she finally realized that Adrienne spoke. She looked at the British girl beside her and smiled with a nod to her head. "Yes, very kind… entertaining actually. They are good people if you think about it. I have known them since middle school. Katarina and Leon has known each other since grade school or so they told me." Melissa raised a finger up and nodded. "Oh and by the way, Adrienne. I moved the party to tomorrow since I realized that the college has its stupid football game this evening."

"Ah, that's rather understandable." Adrienne didn't really seem too enthused about it all, but Melissa had her goals set; to get Adrienne to know how Americans enjoyed themselves. "Say, Adrienne." Melissa had thought of something but quickly shook her head in disregard, "Oh, you know what? Never mind. I am going to go out and get stuff for tomorrow." She got up and approached the dining table and grabbed the keys to her vehicle. "Do you need anything while I am out, Adrienne?" the British girl had just turned her head in thought, "Could you pick up a notebook perhaps?" that was her only request? Melissa nodded, "Sure thing." Leaving to that until Melissa left and the door clicked shut, Adrienne set down her sketching pencil and closed her sketch diary and put the two items away. "I guess I will get ready ad get to my lessons for today." She let out a quiet sigh and then motioned herself to her bedroom and grabbed her conquest three target bow, it was about sixty pounds, she grabbed her silver and blue quiver with about a dozen 2612 cut at sixteen inch with a hundred and fifty grain pullet point nebs. It was a bow that was given to her as a gift and top that, it was silver and blue. She was proud of this thing but she would eventually upgrade to something maybe, a cross bow? She had always wanted one but this worked with her lessons.

She took out a pad of paper and then took her pen and wrote a note to leave for Melissa,

Melissa,

I headed off to my lessons. I will be back within the next two and a half hours.

Try not to get yourself in trouble, okay?

Adrienne

She felt like she didn't need to leave a paragraph, like most people did, just something to help succumb of it all. Melissa probably wouldn't even think to read but back living with her mother, they were always leaving each other notes if one or the other were going out somewhere and no one was home. The butler was never really around, more or less attending with her mother and the maids, Adrienne never really wanted to bother them; she never really wasn't the type to bother anyone with any issues none the less.

However, Katarina had just finished the rest of her homework when she looked up to Leanna, approaching her and setting her baton down. "Ready for tonight eh?" Katarina asked, Leon glanced down at them from sitting at the top of the bleachers. Leanna nodded. "Sometimes I get bored doing this you know? So many people looking at you waiting for you to mess up." The brunette shrugged her shoulders. Katarina put her folder and pen in her messenger bag.

"What makes you keep doing it?" Leon asked almost quietly. Katarina looked back at Leanna as if waiting for an answer. Leanna didn't really pay attention. "It's been through every female in my family, believe it or not." Was her answer. Katarina blinked before wondering if it was a good answer or not.

Stabilizing her bow wasn't really easy for most of the people here, but for Adrienne it was quite simple since she had been taking lessons since she was seven years old. She removed one of her arrows from her quiver and latched it upon her bow and pulled back. She kept it on pull for several moments before concentrating on the fake target many feet away from her; at least she had set hers up at least a hundred feet. She had five targets set up and she started at her first one, shooting her target and hitting the center, and then did she get herself ready, again she continued talking down the line, shooting arrows and hitting the bulls eye each time; until her last target she barely missed but it was good for trying.

"Congrats, Adrienne! My favorite pupil." Her instructor had witnessed her shootings and was usually always trying to recommend her in tournaments, thus she was never interested in the thing. "I know what you're going to say. As I repeat in my years; it's just a hobby." Adrienne repeated. The instructor laughed quietly to herself. "Sometimes I wonder why you continue these courses even though you already know everything you need to."

That was a rather good question. But surely Adrienne had her own reasons like she did everything else. She went and gathered her arrows and put them away in her quiver and latched everything into her traveling archery bag and then sat down on the bench to close her eyes, a water bottle in her hand. She sat there thinking about it all. "It just gives me something to do really. I really don't care if I even spend a lot of money on it. To me, it's just having fun." She removed the lid to the bottle and took several drinks of the aqua spring water. "I guess I will go now. It's been an hour and a half here." She responded, her instructor had nodded and waved to her just as the other students have. She was greatly appreciated and she usually always helped out with the younger students in the summer time. Adrienne was a good student. That was all.

"What do to now?" she asked herself, she was sitting in her vehicle in the driver's seat with the car on, trying to contemplate on what she could do in the meantime, after all, she did leave a note to Melissa saying she would be at least two hours, possible another half hour after that. Adrienne shook her head after staring at her dashboard for over five minutes and finally backed out of the parking lot and into the main street. She was stopped at a red stop light and she moved her hand and carefully turned up the volume of the music on the radio; Sandman from Metallica. "Eh, no." she murmured to herself. She wasn't a fan of heavy metal, rap, or anything loud; more or less just calm music… so therefore she grabbed her CD case from the passenger seat and removed an Andrew Lloyd Webber CD from the third page down and popped it into the radio; turning it on and putting I on the third track; an orchestral music from the theatrical show; Cats. "Not the best, but it's better than that heavy crap."

Pulling into the local dairy queen's drive thru she flipped her eyes through the menu and finally did she get stuck on what her choice was; a blizzard or a regular cone- to regular ice cream. Decisions I tell you! She shook her head and drove up closer to the speaker and as she went to speak, she paused before making her complete order. "Hello, how can I help you today?" the receiver announced, Adrienne smiled softly. I guess I didn't really want any ice cream… damn why did I even come here? She thought to herself. She looked to her empty water bottle and rolled her eyes. "May I please just have a small… coca cola? And a cup of ice water please?" she responded. Who goes through dairy queen for just a soda?

"Sure, you're total will be a dollar and forty cents please at the next window." The receiver seemed quite nice, calm maybe? Perhaps it was an older person, maybe a young adult? Cause usually teenagers who work really find work boring and have that kind of tone to their voice while speaking to customers; slow and very depressing—or so that's the feeling I get when I order from fast food. No, when she got to the window the receiver/cashier was very much a teenager, at least seventeen. "Hello, you're total is a dollar and forty cents." She responded. That smile on her face just made Adrienne's day a little more peaceful. "Here you go, keep the change." Adrienne responded, handing her two dollar bills. The cashier just looked back at her with a nod and a thank you and was granted a moment before finally giving her the order. Adrienne waved and drove off slowly until entering the main road once more.

"I really couldn't decide on the salsa!" Melissa was heard complaining back in the apartment room; Leanne and Anthony were there with her, probably to help get the party ready or something. Leanne smiled and laughed as Anthony just poked Melissa; "Calm down, everything is fine!" it was like, Melissa was turning red in the face from the fact she was so frustrated; yeah that was her alright. "Are you picking on me?" she wondered cautiously, "Adrienne! Welcome home!" yeah, changing the subject when your room mate got home was pretty fun to do for her, she did that almost every conversation. Adrienne set down the cup of coke and the cup of water on the island in the kitchen area and placed her archery bag and her bow in her bedroom before meeting them in the dining room. "You're back so early?" Adrienne asked tilting her head and taking a chip from the bowl and eating it. "Yeah well, Leanne and Anthony had decided to help out and also come here to help you know. Maybe you can as well?" Melissa asked. Leanne had also taken a tortilla chip. "I suppose…" Adrienne sighed, looking down at the table with a shit load of things that Melissa had gathered from probably a bunch of grocery stores.

"We need to work on your shopping skills too!" Leanne said to Adrienne, Anthony and Melissa both bopped her on the head.

The president was waiting by the enormous opened doors when two of his security guards returned to the white house. He had hoped that everything was going well and that they were able to achieve the needed information from what was happening in Aliceville, Alabama. Although, he often knew what was going on, he just didn't need to assume things before hand and not knowing the complete details of it all. "Have you found anything?" the president had asked without feeling any regret or hallucination. The two men looked at each other and then back to the president, shaking their heads; yes, the president was slightly disappointed.

"Aliceville is still being watched with the police enforcements that are making sure things are going well. No more robberies however, strange. That place hasn't quite been peaceful as of late." The men responded quietly. The president nodded his head, "very well, guess there isn't much we can do at this time." He placed his hand on his forehead, feeling as if a head ache was coming along. "I am going to the court, I suppose if anything does show up I trust you will let me know."

Knock! Knock! Knock!

Damn knocking on the door wasn't really something Adrienne wanted to awake to from a quick nap. She quickly lifted her head up from leaning over her desk and looked at her watch and mumbled to herself. Take a short nap for at least fifteen minutes and she is already knocking on my god damn door. Adrienne mumbled to herself before getting up and opening the door to find a Melissa holding up a dry erase board with the words in green; Party is starting RIGHT NOW! Adrienne rolled her eyes and took the dry erase board and stepped out of her room, closing the door behind her. Melissa smiled. "Taking a nap again Adrienne? Well, GOOD! Cause you're going to get wasted tonight!" She raised her arms up, there was loud music playing and at least ten people were already here…? Adrienne brushed herself off and set the dry erase board and made her way to the restroom to stare into the mirror… standing there, hands on the counter and just staring at herself. Her hair was horrible. Guess that happen when you pass out. She took a comb and combed through and fixed herself up. She stepped out and then suddenly was she hugged by her roommate once more. "Time to get…WASTED!" she responded, letting all of her friends know the party was starting. "Melissa…" Adrienne noted, looking around and not entirely knowing anyone that was currently here. What did she do? Invite the entire campus? She wondered to herself curiously.

"Hello everyone! Meet the new British student, Adrienne!" Melissa greeted out through the karaoke microphone. Adrienne face palmed and then made her way to the dining table and taking a seat. Everyone was already drunk, just how long have they been here exactly? Where they here before Adrienne passed out? Or what? Adrienne surely slept through the loud ruckus out here. A margarita was placed in front of her from Leanne and was told to enjoy it—"What is this?" Adrienne mumbled, using her right hand to take hold of its handle and first taking a sniff of it; smelled pretty good. She took a sip and then blinked. Wow, surely this tastes pretty good, pretty strong yeah. That pretty much made her stomach feel slightly cold and it gave her a soft shiver. After about ten minutes she had already finished it and working on a second one that Anthony gladly placed in front of her, but this time was a kiwi flavored margarita mixed with some strawberry flavoring. Melissa was just having the time of her life, watching Adrienne. "Daaaayumm! She drank that pretty fast!" Anthony said laughing, "Here, give her this," one of the students, Kayla, had handed Anthony a newly tall glass of one of mixed drinks she made specifically. "It's called, 'Adios Motherfucker', this will make things interesting." Kayla responded. Anthony had tried not to have too much fun but he couldn't help himself. He handed it to Adrienne and smiled. "Try this, it's delicious." He responded. Melissa perked over and gasped in surprise, "You know what that could do to her hm?" She responded. Kayla smiled, "I know, some Vodka, Tequila, Gin, Rum, Blue Curacao, Sweet and sour mix and some 7-up…yeah, I probably mixed a little more than usual." Kayla shrugged her hands and smiled, "Damn girl." Leanna viewed Kayla as the type however, she was always partying almost every night and probably got all these mixing ideas from her bartender buddy from the bar.

Things just got interesting after two hours, Andrew, Leon, and Katarina had finally made it and what they saw was Adrienne on her knees in the middle of the living room with a few people talking to her, trying to get her to do some things, Katarina and Andrew had made their way to ask what was going on, Leon had just stood there. "Oh my, what did you give her?" Katarina had asked, Kayla crossed her legs from sitting on one of the chairs. "You know, some of my special mixes." She responded, Katarina looked slightly disappointed in the poor girl but found it sort of funny. Leon shook his head. "Hey Leon, you guys made it!" Melissa responded, leaning towards him on the island. "Why did you let her drink Kayla's mixes?" He suddenly asked, Melissa shrugged. "What? She needs to get used to it you know." She responded laughing, she was drunk but not as bad as Adrienne. "She's never drank before. You know. Should probably pay attention on what that could do." Leon Scott Kennedy, always was looking out for people, specifically people he knew. "Ah, no worries Leon! She's here at home! It's not like we went out to a bar!" She patted her hand on the counter top and laughed.

"She will just be feeling a little you know, sick in the morning. That is all. Calm down!" Anthony said. Katarina rubbed her temples before realizing that her boyfriend had started drinking when Kayla led him to the dining table. "Melissa, how old is Adrienne?" Leon asked, "Sixteen." She answered. He felt somewhat disappointed. "You will be the one in trouble if the police decide to step in." he responded. "She is four years younger than we are. Not only that, but she's underage." Leon didn't quite like it, but Melissa seemed like everything will be fine. "You better hope nothing happens to her, I think you should stop this party for the night, it's already past midnight." Leon was only trying to help, to keep everyone out of trouble and Melissa was having a hard time agreeing with him. For a sixteen year old who graduated high school with an honors diploma, skipped a grade and is the youngest student in college, not even yet with a certificate in citizenship in the United States. Not only that, none of them even knew she was the president's daughter. Who knows what trouble they could possibly get into; and what trouble Adrienne would be in? No one would know. But they had to at least respect her. Poor Adrienne. Leon had sighed when Melissa finally turned the music off and dismissed everyone; yeah, they were upset but it was the best thing they could do. Stop for the night. If they wanted to party, they could do it somewhere else.

Leon moved over to Adrienne and picked her up, he found her bedroom after Melissa showed it to him and he laid her in bed, grabbing a bottle of water from the kitchen and placing it at her side. It was the best thing she could drink whenever she was able to. "You're lucky tomorrow is Sunday." Katarina told Melissa, Melissa shrugged and laughed. "We are all going to just crash here then." Anthony pointed out, since they were all drinking, even Andrew and Andrew was the one who drove Katarina and Leon here. Leon had sat down, placing his hand on his forehead. A head ache already. Melissa sat down and just finally got quiet, some of them finally just passed out where they were; Melissa returned to her room.

When morning rose, Adrienne woke up and had found the water, taking a drink and feeling her head, "A head ache…" she mumbled, before rushing and actually vomiting. Katarina had heard her get up and slowly made her way to the restroom. "You feeling alright?" she asked. Adrienne washed herself up after fifteen minutes and sat on the floor in the bathroom on the carpet. "Yeah… just feeling a little you know, sick. What exactly happened?" she asked. Katarina shrugged and smiled. "When I got here, you were already completely drunk and basically in the middle of the living room floor." She responded. Adrienne smirked, "Ha… one hell of a night." She admitted. "Yeah well don't get used to it. You're sixteen. It's underage drinking here and it's illegal. Leon got pretty upset you know." She announced, helping her up and into her bedroom for the two of them to sit down. "Leon?" Adrienne didn't quite know who that was yet. "Yeah a friend of mine and as well Melissa's friend. You see, he's studying Criminal law and is going to apply for the police academy in the summer." She responded. "So he gets edgy when it comes to the law. I am surprised Melissa didn't stop to think about that." Katarina laughed quietly to herself.

"Ah, I see." Adrienne scratched behind her head and had realized a few of Melissa's friends were passed out in the living room, and that Leon was passed out on the sofa. That was by far, the most interesting Saturday Adrienne had.

End of Chapter 2

Leon Kennedy finds himself some what attracted to the girl but Adrienne doesn't quite seem interested until Katarina finally decides to play the part of cupid. Just how will this go?
