I didn't see Ian in class on Wednesday.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPkJ77T8zbZ
Macy was there though. Unfortunately.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDs7ErctpxX
We still had to continue working on our projects in class and she was just on her phone most of the time. She didn't finish her portrait yet and she didn't even bring it to class to continue working on it. She just sat on her phone and listened to music.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ53mmLSxd7x
I spent most of class working on the research part of the project, looking for which modern art artist I liked most.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8OPfD3rPmZ
The remainder of the week I spent working on AP Calc and finishing up an english essay about the effects of violent tv shows.

When Saturday approached I hadn't thought of a good plan to get out of the house. I needed to figure out a good excuse to tell my parents or find a way to sneak out. I had to take the bus over to the academy so I could meet Jordan and Sarah at the girls dorm.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlyVkKqIXPc
I was super excited about going to a party. I hadn't been to a real house party since I was a freshman and they made me go in the closet with this nerdy boy. We were playing spin the bottle and we both got picked to go in a closet for 7 minutes. When we got into the closet he started crying and ran out immediately.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7y1HFrX36
Hopefully this time it'll be a better experience than that one.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt80hZtPunv
My hair had grown to a short pixie cut with my tight curls coming in. It wasn't long enough to put in a pony tail yet but a few more weeks and I could make some cute little pig tails.

Around 6 I decide to devise a plan on how to leave the house. I opened the door to peak out of my room and see if anyone was in the living room and I couldn't see anyone. The coast seemed clear enough and I stepped out and went to the kitchen to grab a water.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvnZupovYfH
I looked around a little more to see if they were in the house. I checked out the window and the car was gone. They're both gone. I'm safe.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTqJWYOCf5A
I ran back into my room and grabbed my tote and put some essentials in there before sliding my window up and stepping outside through it. Just to be safe.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6M0H13vR9u
I walked to the nearest bus stop that went to the other side of town and barely caught it by a minute. I walked in and gave the lady my bus fair and sat down in the front waiting patiently till I got to the academy.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxUZlhBU2Bl
After 45 minutes I arrived at the bus stop near the academy and walked the rest of the way. I texted Jordan that I was on my way to her dorm.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD9F27knOXw
My parents never check my room so I think I'll be okay.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkzeRYbp2Xe
Once I arrived to her dorm she let me in and Sarah was already there.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtiV98tBPvw
"What took you so long we were waiting to start getting ready with you."
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH5oVAwMUME
"Ugh- sorry. I took a long nap."
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqqZlWk4763
"Let's just start getting ready. I'm so excited to look sexy and mysterious." We all laughed at Sarah posing seductively.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8I8srAv1Ai
"Okay Vee I have the perfect outfit for you."
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK5e6fHOXg4
Jordan got up from her bed and walked over to the other side of the room where her closet was. She rummaged through her clothes searching attentively.
She pulled out a short black dress from her closet that was sleek and silky. I gasped at how gorgeous and elegant it looked
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp6ecWh7kiX
"That dress is beautiful Jordan. No way I can pull that off."
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQxIjfqJi9a
"Trust me. Once I'm done with you, you're going to look like a supermodel."
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2MO3c2EXV
Sarah and I looked at each other before she got up and started going through her closet looking for a dress through Jordan's things.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUWoLWEctFJ
Jordan already had her dress out on her bed and it was very elegant with the perfect amount of slutty. A red lace mini dress that had a corset in the middle to synch her waist. On top of it was a red mask with diamonds outlining it.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaSNeL7wpzD
We all spent time getting ready together trying on our dresses and doing our makeup. When we were finally done I take a moment to look at myself in the mirror.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGEMhVQg95i
I was wearing the black dress Jordan had lent me along with her louboutin red bottom stilettos that were too high for me to walk in. To top it off I had on silk black gloves and a black mask with rhinestones and embroidery that tied behind my head with a ribbon. My makeup wasn't very heavy, just a winged liner and dark red lipstick.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ04VCKRvotu
I felt like a princess. Well, a slutty princess.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK6qQ1rXyZF
I didn't really feel like what I was wearing suited me mostly because everything was so expensive. Jordan lent me her 1000 dollar dress and 800 dollar heels so casually like it wasn't more than what I could make in months of working a minimum wage job. I felt beautiful in the dress and thought it fit me very well but I didn't feel right wearing something so expensive.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOdhv89ooCT
"Are you girls ready?"
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo6EjoM8kD6
Sarah came out of the bathroom after curling her hair and putting a mask on. Her dress was white and long with a high slit. Her mask was silver with diamonds around it and a white feather on the top.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡINIpIXBQJz
"We all look hot as fuck." Jordan said putting her brush down after the last touches of makeup.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0kjPgzyTIJ
"Okay guys is everyone ready?"
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT69cXOibfP
We all take a few pictures in the bathroom mirror with our masks on before heading out the door and heading to the party.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9KH2zZbmVi
Macy posted the address of her house on almost all of her social media platforms. Along with everyone else in Preston Academy. She didn't live far from the school. It was a 10 minute drive without the highway because she lived in Richmond hills - the neighborhood where all the rich kids were.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhjzgtwScjn
We traveled to her house while listening to upbeat dance music to prepare ourselves.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAKH2XUQkpT
Once we got to the front I was in utter shock. I've never been to a house so big. The type of house that you'd see on a magazine or on TV. There were cars lined in her driveway and some on the side of the road nearer to her house. We could hear the music as we pulled up and there were a handful of people outside smoking.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVyKeGg5MPU
We ended up parking super far from her house because of the amount of cars there were lined up on the road so we had to walk a distance. I was struggling to walk in Jordan's heels because they were so tall.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa0JWOfZfFd
At the door there was a football player with his black jersey on and a plain grey mask. He didn't bother dressing up for the party and looked like he just got out of practice.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGKS6NbcUVA
"Password."He said stopping us from going in. What a dick. This is a open invite party why is he acting like we needed a password to be let in to a house party.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcitLwEgVY1
"Let us in asshole." I replied
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeZELVz1rZA
He took his mask off and revealed his face looking irritated. He had dark brown eyes and black hair just like Ian and this was the first time I've seen him up close. Kai. Ians brother. They looked eerily similar but he had brown eyes and his hair had more curls.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2WGkcHI8oA
Of course he's the one letting people in.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9XRiFL7Bit
"I can't let people in that don't know the password "
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSyRr0IKJr4
"What are you 10? Let us in." He turned his head over to me and his eyes lingered on mine for longer than I expected. I was confused at the sudden change of attitude.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIZgVzyaR3O
He rolled his eyes and gave us a heavy sigh before opening the door to reveal a heavily packed house. We all walked in, not before glaring at him first.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcwbToVA25X
"He was such an asshole!" Jordan said after the door was fully closed and he was out of sight.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJURUUXlTjc
"He's so hot though." Sarah shrugged.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGOKPNkrat
"Ew Sarah. He was a dick to us."
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡseS0LiON8I
"That doesn't change the fact that he's still hot."
She shrugged.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwjUpjyui7I
"Okay but was it just me or was he totally eyeing Vee."
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnDk7OphMUV
"It's just you." Sarah responded quickly.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTHduPI1TRZ
"Okay guys where are we going first." I interrupted their conversation.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJBeyXO9l28
"You are going to go find Ian. We are going to get drunk."
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRA0ZZsHXQ1
"Ugh. That's not fair!"
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfsVetJZQ5P
"Text us when you've found Ian."
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwBr0ex9r1J
Jordan grabs Sarah's arm and pushes through the crowd of people around us.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpU2ZsixvNf
I was now standing there alone feeling stupid because I had no clue where to go or what to do.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbcFo60Nq3m
Find Ian. Okay.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJdJcKjaAQb
I push forward through the people around me all wearing different types of masks.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzRQ5kbQhGG
How am I supposed to find Ian if everyone is wearing a mask?
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsPQw1uFN3h
I continue walking watching as people dance on each other sensually and others on their phones. Macy's house was very classy and elegant. It was all white inside and I don't know how she wasn't afraid that with all these people here something might get broken or dirty.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzbiAQbZTT3
I make my way to the beautiful white and black kitchen in the middle of the house. There were less people in here so I decided to stand in there for a moment and take in everything around me.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRrqF9Mizd
There were bottles of every type of liquor you could think of on the island of the kitchen. People were taking shots back to back and some were just drinking straight out the bottle. The music was so loud I felt like I was going to lose my hearing.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ94ecUeuF4T
"What are you doing here?"
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8A7sD41KVb
I turn around and see a Macy with flushed cheeks. She was slurring her words which meant she was probably very drunk.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVIyxaDdJDi
"I didn't invite you. You need to leave."
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYA5ydnwAi3
I stood there dumbfounded not really sure what to say next.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfa3k1bkyOv
"Ian invited me."
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcTSqRL5zLa
"Oh please like he would invite a bitch like you."
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcqWsywW4Md
"Excuse me?"
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLDPtnlnui6
My jaw dropped. I didn't know what to say. I was too stunned to rebuttal her comment. I know she was drunk but that was no excuse. She was very aware of what she was saying at the moment. We stood there staring each other down burning through each others eyes. We stayed like this for a few seconds until someone came and interjected our staring competition.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxcsOwbl5rb
"Macy! Ian's here!"
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEuGgKUCOLN
She broke our eye contact to look at her friend approach her. They both looked me up and down before walking away to go find him. I let out a deep breath and gave a heavy sigh of relief.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFXCpvjnf6u
Finally she's gone.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJUKsZxwlRu
I give up looking for Ian. By the time I find him she'll be all over him.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2EP24244B
Mission failed.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4oG2U4UvH
I grab a bottle of Ciroc from the counter and head the opposite direction of where Macy was going. I came across a swirly staircase and looked up to see where it lead to.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmta6COcear
I began walking up the stairs mindlessly touching the rails that had fancy engravings on it.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMxEdLKIg3n
I reach the second floor and there were a handful of people standing in the hall. Mostly people making out and groping each other.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMTGqm0Yiee
I continue walking down the hall until I reach an open door that led outside to the side of the house. The glass doors ahead of me revealed a beautiful outside balcony that over looked her property. The floors outside were white along with the rest of the decor. I walked outside to the edge of the balcony placing my hands onto the marble like railing and sat the bottle down after sipping on it. I looked out at the landscape and admired how well kept the yard was. I could still hear the music faintly from the inside of the house and there were people outside yelling and being obnoxious trashing her yard with empty beer cans.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpWQwDtEmtP
I stood there for a few minutes basking in the calm of the quietnesses.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZJ9byWwXT
"Are you not enjoying the party?"
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoxJfQ7q64m
A familiar voice rang in my ear from behind and I turned to match the voice with a face.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡagPFwqqnvl
There he stood in front of me with a black mask that covered most of his face leaving just his lips out. He had all black on. A black turtleneck tucked into black dress pants with a black belt but I recognised his green eyes.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKXzg5xDj2J
"Ian?"
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDYnhjlNQQ
He took off his mask and his hair fell on his face and he brushed it out of the way with his hand. His eyes burned through mine with intense eye contact. I kept my eyes on his eyes for a second taking in his face before looking away.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡML29bKxcch
"I am. Why wouldn't I be?"
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ZlC26vNtX
"You're all the way out here alone."
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEywANJXhAb
"I was just exploring the house and ended up out here."
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFSHTBaLGt5
"Yeah Macy's house is pretty nice." He says looking around.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6obnWPbAI0
"Why are you out here? Are you not enjoying the party?"
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBV7FTTREdK
"I am I'm just.."
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuxe9MucZtX
He pauses.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1zwtagppiW
"Hiding from Macy."
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQZzc4szQ1
I chuckled at the fact that he's hiding from her in her own house. He smiled in response to my laughter and we ended up laughing together.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW971Py0caV
"Why are you hiding from Macy?"
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYZuK9EdeH2
"She's looking for me. I don't know what she wants but I'm not sure I want to find out."
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuG3khyqjgj
After our laughter we stood there for a moment in silence.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ43ECJNv2es
Okay, this is my chance to ask him about that night at the club.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2XSfNxB6Ph
"Ian?"
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwb4199LPWI
"Yeah?"
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ36DX4CnMeC
"You were at the club last weekend right? Club 9?"
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxyM7HGvLqD
His expression was unreadable.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrbTaPKVqhz
"Yeah." He looked down.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaGs4ApEi3D
"So it was you that took me home."
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ2edX3csDh
He stayed silent. He didn't answer but I took his silence for an answer.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4VNV41YiOe
"Why didn't you say anything about it after that night?"
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvU1XmeQmtv
"I'm sorry." He avoided eye contact with me.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ZYkihup2X
We were quiet for another minute before I spoke again.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4C7nuCirCO
"So you've seen where I live then... Did you tell anyone?"
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdXE92jAJjy
"Where you live? Why would I do that?"
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj7i2dpOWYt
"Don't act like you didn't see my shack of a house. Just please promise not to say anything. Please."
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjCn2nT1Vpg
"I promise."
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaLgTIr8j73
I looked down feeling sort of guilty for being mad at him for taking me home. He was honestly just trying to help me and I felt like I was a bitch about it. I broke my eye contact with him after he finished his sentence. My eyes wandered down to his hands that sat still by his body.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq3H2VbamNO
He took a step closer to me and my back was against the railing of the balcony. We were inches away from each other and my eyes shot up towards his and he never broke his eye contact with me.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI1jnUAoiGH
"Thank you for taking me home that night I don't know what I would've done if you hadn't to be honest."
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaIvoqw5B59
"You don't have to say thank you."
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxEHFEAevGq
My body felt warm from his kind words and my face was heating up. He was so close to me. I was getting nervous because I didn't know what to say or do next. I felt like I was standing awkwardly or doing something wrong and I was overthinking that entire moment.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Rf5geZHvM
I stood nervously hoping he remembered our conversation so I had some sort of confirmation that I didn't make it all up in my head and that it was really him that was there.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7oGvnXIKx0
He placed his mask on the rail behind me and reached his hands behind my head. Our eyes didn't leave each others and he untied the ribbon that held my mask up on my face. He's slowly removed it with both hands and put down next to his.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkFUFBjuAa8
My face was now mask less and exposed in front of him.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNmme0ggE4a
He gave me soft smile and my eyes shifted towards his mouth. I felt my insides evaporate from the sight of his pretty smile. It was contagious.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV1w752k9Gv
"You look incredible by the way."
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvf7DHI7ALg
"Thank you. So do you." I released a soft smile in response to his compliment.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTGrdYZkvBV
He raised his hand to touch my face and brush something off of my face. His fingers were warm and soft on my face and sent butterflies flying inside my body. Even though it was just him touching my face, I felt excitement build up in my stomach.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡELE6SJVzzH
He brought his fingers down near my lips, barely touching them, letting them linger there. We both stood inches apart from each other, our faces so close if I moved any closer we'd be touching.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLIXT1YQ8Jh
His hand rested on my face like it was his home. It felt right in the moment and it brought me comfort. Then he did the most unexpected thing I could ever imagine.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSR9Qak6VfH
He kissed me.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI5hZQ5WbFQ
He pulled me in and rested his lips on mine gently. His hand rested on my cheek holding it lightly. His lips connected with mine and electric shock flowed through my body. His lips were soft and released a warm feeling that spiked through me. I didn't know how to kiss or if I was doing it right. My mind was completely blank in that moment and the only thing that mattered in that second was his lips on mine.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW5HZ3v3s6Q
He took the lead because It was probably clear that I didn't know what to do or how to kiss properly. He sucked on my bottom lip and bit it gently before tightening his grip on me.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFOweKnFvPi
My heart was beating fast but the heart beat between my legs was beating faster. I'd never felt this way before and my body was reacting to his touch like fire, melting every moment his lips stayed on mine.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYNJAIPFfhi
He pulled away slowly from me and I was left with no idea what was next.
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYyhfcDyEk
Ian Peters was my first kiss.
