14. The Final Party

She could hardly stop looking at herself. Observing every inch of her body, the dress was tight enough to show off every dip and curve. She could hardly believe it was her that she was looking at in the mirror.

Tatum smiled, "You look amazing, Ronnie."

"Thanks..." Veronica smiled back, "So do you."

"Thanks. C'mon, we should go buy snacks then head over to Stu's." Tatum grabbed Veronica by the hand and led her out of the house.

8:46pm

The two finished their shopping and arrived at Stu's house.

"Oh wow... His house is huge." Veronica said in astonishment.

"I know right? Wait'll you see the inside!" Tatum smiled, pulling Veronica towards the entrance.

The two girls entered the large house, it was full of wasted teens. Veronica took off her hoodie, it was stuffy and reeked of B.O.

"Ladies~" Stu greeted with a smile, handing both girls a beer. He paused and looked Veronica up and down.

"Wow... Ronnie. Y- You look great." Stu glanced at Tatum, "B- But Tatum takes the gold, sorry." He ruffled Veronica's hair.

She glared playfully and fixed her hair.

"Shut up, Stu! Don't belittle her so much. We both look amazing, no one looks better than the other." Tatum elbowed Stu in the stomach.

Veronica ignored Stu and opened her beer, downing it fast.

"Jesus, Ronnie! Pace yourself, we want to remember tonight, don't we?!" Tatum laughed. Stu grinned.

Veronica smirked and shrugged, "Is Billy here?"

Stu's smile faded, "No. He'll be here later or whatever... Why?"

"Oh... uh... I- I was- I... um..." Veronica stumbled over her words. "J- Just wondering..."

Tatum rolled her eyes with a smile. Stu sulked and walked off.

9:52pm

Both girls had been there for over an hour, Veronica was a few beers in.

Randy and some teenagers were picking out which horror movie to watch.

Tatum sat in Stu's lap, the two continuously flirted. Randy and Veronica glanced at each other and gagged.

"Child's Play, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Prom Night, Halloween, Friday the 13th, so on and so forth." Veronica sighed, "Pretty lame collection, Stu."

"Oh yeah? What do you have? Huh? Smart guy." Stu shook his head.

"Uh, like a hundred times the amount you have, you bum." Veronica scoffed.

Stu shot her a playful glare, then the doorbell rang. "I'll get it." He got up, "Tate, grab me another beer, would ya?"

Tatum replied, "What am I? The beer-wench?" Which gained laughter from teens including Veronica.

Stu walked towards the door, Veronica following behind him. He opened the door and there stood Dewey, who had arrived and was going to keep watch. Tatum complained at first, but eventually let it go. But Dewey didn't come alone. He arrived with some News Reporter wearing a goofy red matching outfit. She was quite the interesting lady.

The lady attempted to interview Veronica about the intruder, without a camera, claiming she would "remember everything word for word" Veronica simply ignored her and walked away, going to get another beer.

Tatum left to get beers and Veronica went over to Randy to help him decide on a movie to watch.
