Deja Vu - part6

Raven Roth

    I tucked a few of the condoms into my purse. I seriously doubted I'd actually be doing anything tonight but I might as well come prepared. I pulled a sweatshirt on so Garfield wouldn't see me done up. I walked through the house and I was at the door when Garfield appeared.

    "Where are you going?" he asked.

    I took him in. Jinx was so right about him being hot. I hated to admit it to myself but he was pretty irresistible. He wore a pair of jeans and a black t-shirt with some musical group on it that fit him perfectly. I couldn't help it. And I knew just how perfectly sculpted his muscles were. He was just a dream come true. I shook the thoughts out of my mind.

    "I'm going to Jinx's house," I didn't want to tell him about the party. "Don't stay up I'll be home late"

    I walked out the door and climbed into my car. I started it up and headed to Jinx's house.

    After arriving at Jinx's house I took my sweatshirt off. She looked at me and smiled. "Damn girl you are looking fine." She laughed and I walked in. she looked pretty good herself. She was wearing a pair of black shorts paired with a white crop top and a neon pink bra. You could see the bra through the thin white material of her top. She had her hair also straightened but it was considerably shorter than mine. My hair is down my back, and hers barley reached her shoulders. "What did good old Garfield say when he saw you?" Jinx was trying not to bust out snickering.

    "Didn't see, I wore a sweatshirt." I said feeling myself blush

    "Well why would you hide all that hotness from him? Afraid he would stop you on the way out? He's obviously already into you." Jinx sat on her staircase and started putting on her shoes.

    "Really?" I asked. I hated myself for not thinking that one through. I could hear the hopefulness in my own voice so Jinx obviously recognized it.

    She simply raised an eye brow at me. I could see the amusement glittering in her eyes.

    "Oh shut up" I said rolling my own eyes. Let's go. I pulled her out the door and we climbed into her purple jeep. I didn't however notice the shift in her bushes.



Garfield Logan

    I was a small green squirrel sitting in Jinx's bush. I felt like a creeper, but I wanted to make sure Raven was alright. Something felt off when she lefts, ad it might have just been the fact that she took condoms with her. But I smelled how nervous she was, maybe a little embarrassment? I just had to make sure she was alright.
    
    Of course after I saw her walk out in that little outfit with her red bra hanging out I couldn't help but follow to see where they were going. I changed into a dog and froze, afraid they saw me, but if they did they didn't do anything about it. I ran after the jeep as a dog, keeping a safe distance behind them. Until we reached a house near the edge of town. The house was pretty big, and there were cars parked all around. The air smelled strongly of smoke and alcohol.

    I watched Raven and Jinx get out of the car and head into the house laughing. I changed into a human and just watched the house for a minute. It was obvious to anyone that there was an insane party going on in there.

    And after some thought about I t I made up my mind. I walked in. It was so loud I could barely hear myself think. Everyone's body heat was washing over me in waves and the smells of sweat, and too much perfume clouded my over sensitive nose.

    I turned my attention towards finding Raven. I didn't exactly want to go around asking people if they knew, or had seen Raven, so I went for the bending in approach. I walked among the crowd leaning forward so my hair fell across my eyes. I tried to smell Raven's sweet sent, but I could hardy trace it through everyone else's obnoxious sent.

    "You look lost." I turned and there stood a short girl with short black hair spiked with red streaks, bright intolerable blue eyes, and dark Indian colored skin. "Can I help you?" She raised her right eyebrow that was pierced with some stud that reflected every little bit of light that hit it.

    "Uhmm" I looked around quickly, then decided to go along with the girl. "I'm new, I guess.." I felt awkward.

    "Well I'm your party buddy for now." She grabbed my arm and was surprisingly strong for her small size. "C'mon." she started dragging me through the crowd. "I think they are about to start a game of 7 minutes in heaven!"

    Well I didn't really want to do that. Raven would be angry enough to know that I followed her here without adding me sitting in a closet with her friends for 7 minutes. I planned to just ditch this girl as soon as possible and just go home. It wasn't worth it anymore. The more I thought about Raven's anger, the more I realized it was a bad idea to follow her.

    I was planning on bailing but I ended up reaching a room where people were each dropping a small object into a bag to play 7 minutes in heaven, and there sat Raven. She had just dropped something into the bag and she was sitting in some guys lap laughing. Not genuine laughter. Though she might have thought the joke or whatever was funny, I knew Raven couldn't just express laughter like that without destroying something.

    Then her eyes locked on me and turned icy cold. I could literally feel the chill coat my body. I had to look down and make sure her dark energy wasn't coating me, and that I wasn't about to be shot through the roof. The crowd's heat disappeared completely from just her look. And I knew I was for sure dead. But she wouldn't make a scene here. She wanted to stay in this dead end town for some reason.

    "What did you say your name was?" The girl with electric blue eyes asked.

    The more I looked at her eyes, the more I was sure they were fakes. No one had eyes that neon blue naturaly. "Garfield" I answered without thinking.

    "Great! Now drop something into the bag." She said shoving me towards it.

    I reached into my pocket and felt around. I only felt a string, loose change, and a paperclip. I pulled out the paperclip only to realize it was one of those weird ones that were big and neon colored. I dropped it into the bag and sat across from Raven.

    "hey babe, why don't you go first?" Some skanky girl next to me said. "I put in the red comdom" she winked at me. I was in no way attracted to that, in fact I felt bad for her.

    I didn't go first though. The girl who lead me in did. She pulled out a crumbled up post-it with a face on it and walked into the closet with a tall bleached blond guy in tow. The game went on. Couple after couple would go into the closet. Some would come out quite ruffled like they were going at it hard, and others just came out blushing. All the while Raven managed to glare icicles down my spine. Until I somehow ended up with my hand in the bag, I felt around. I wasn't looking forward to this. Just get it over with I snapped at myself and pulled out a chain with a little shiny penny dangling from the end.

    Everyone grew silent. I wondered why, until Raven stood with icy hell burning in her eyes. I only prayed she wouldn't mame me that badly before one of the other guests called the cops or something.

    I braced myself for her blow, but all she did was rip the necklace out of my hands, put it around her neck and walked into the closet. And I knew it would probably get me killed, but I followed her.
