Gone

Chapter 44 [Juliana] Shrooms Set Up *

"Babe, I really think you need to think this over," Blaze says to me after he gets a call on his cell from a kid who wants to sell him some mushrooms.

"And why would I do that?" I ask, putting back on my bra and shirt, him putting his clothes on too. "I've never tried them before. So I'd like to try it atleast just once."

"But you've never been on them before. You're going to have a horrible trip," he tells me as I let it fly over my head. "Listen to me, Julie."

"I'm going to try them," I carefully state, glancing over to catch him staring at me blankly.

"After I ran away from home a few years ago, I was so heated and done with the world. And me and Spencer were chillin at this kid Marvin's crib to pass some time by, and then he pulled out some shrooms. He was too much of an ass to explain to me that if you're already in a bad state of mind, that getting high on them can be REALLY messed up."

"But I'm fine..." I try to argue.

"Your dad, that whole incident that happened, that might run through your mind because I know you mad well and I know you think about it all the time--"

"Nope, you're wrong."

"Juliana, just wait to trip after you've had atleast a good week before you eat them. Come on baby, you know I'd love to do them with you but I don't want you to bug the hell out."

"But I won't!" I protest, even though he obviously knows what he's talking about.

"I've done it before and it was the scariest thing I ever went through," he suddenly races out, standing up as I close my mouth. "Don't do it when you aren't in the perfect state of mind. I'm telling you."

"Who cares if I have a bad trip?"

"And it isn't as awesome at night as it is during the day," he argues, as I dart over to him and grab the back of his head, pushing my lips against his to make him stop talking. And he kisses me back for a while, but when I pull back my head he's shaking his head. "You're not going to like it."

"I love being high."

"Tripping is way different Julie," he tells me, as I snort and laugh, making him release a long deep breath. "Well, at least I tried."

"So we'll do it?" I smile, him staring silently at me for a few seconds. "Please please please!"

"Whatever," he mumbles, pulling out his cell and doing something on it.

"What're you doing? Calling him up?"

He lifts his eyes onto mine and grins. "Nah, texting him. It's not worth a call he knows where we usually meet. Let's start walking."

"How far away is it?" I ask, him shoving his phone back into his pocket and smirking.

"Why, are you tired?" he questions me in a sarcastic tone, while I grin at him and lick my lips.

"I actually am. Sucking you is hard work... Especially trying to deepthroat."

And when he starts laughing is when I widely smile, waiting for him to answer. "That's what they all say," he mutters, my jaw dropping as he quickly holds up his hands. "I'm joking. I joke. You should know this by now."

"You better be, you jerk," I giggle, him turning around as I clap my hands, hoping he'll give me a piggyback ride so I won't have to walk for a while.

"Fine," he sharply exhales. "Hop on, princess."
