"Kierra! Hurry up, we need to go get Janelle", Demitri said glancing at his watch.
"I'm sorry, I'm here now. I was looking for the house keys", she said locking up the house.
Kierra's parents were out on a business trip so she was left at home with the helper.
"Where's Madeline?", Demitri asked.
"I told her she could leave early, she had some issues at home with her boyfriend", she said getting into the car. "Let's go get Janelle", she said fastening her seatbelt.
They drove around the block to Janelle's house. She was standing outside her house with her arms folded.
"What took you guys so long?" She asked closing the car door.
"Somebody", he said looking at Kierra, "lost the keys to her own house", he laughed.
"Madeline forgot to tell me where she put the keys, it's not my fault", she rolled her eyes.
"Okay, okay lets go then", she said pulling out her phone to take selfies.
Demitri started the car and they made their way to the party.
"You want some lipstick Kierra?", Janelle said looking in her makeup powder mirror.
"You know I don't wear makeup Janelle", she said turning around to look at her.
"Ugh it's a party, it'll enhance your beauty anyways", she said looking at her.
"How dare you", Kierra said laughing.
"Okay we're here", Demitri says parking the car.
Kierra and Janelle's jaws dropped in astonishment.
"Thi-this is Jason's house?", Janelle said as they started walking in.
"Yeah it is", Demitri said laughing at their reactions, "it's no biggy, a lot of people have houses like that at this university. You guys houses are like this".
"Not this big", Kierra said.
The music got louder and louder as they got closer until they walked in. They were immediately greeted by the smell of cigarettes and alcohol.
"I don't know about you guys but I can get used to this", Janelle said looking around.
"Would you guys like drinks?", Demitri asked.
"Yeah", Kierra and Janelle said.
"I'll be back", Demitri said walking over to the punch bowl when Jason came stumbling towards him and swung his arm around his neck.
"Bro! How was your summer break?",
"Hey man, it was good, hope yours was good too",
"It was fantastic", he said, "I see you've come back with freshmen", he said looking towards Janelle and Kierra.
"They're not just freshmen, they're my best friends. Don't start your funny games with them", he said warning him while pouring punch in the second cup.
Jason held his hands up in defense.
"Hey man, I'm not looking to play anymore. Plus, the girl in the cheetah print skirt is pretty cute", he said winking at her making her blush.
"You? Done playing? Yeah I'd like to see that", Demitri said picking up the cups.
"We can bet on it dude", Jason said escorting him towards the girls.
"Jason, this is Kierra and Janelle", he said handing the cups to the girls.
Jason shook Kierra's hand then shook Janelle's but didn't let go, he brought her hand up to his lips to plant a kiss on it.
"Hi Janelle, pleasure to meet you", he said looking in her eyes.
"Pleasures all mine", she said blushing.
"Y'all wouldn't mind if I took her away right?" He said without breaking the eye contact.
"Go ahead", Kierra said taking a sip from her cup.
Jason and Janelle began to walk away and drifted into the crowd until they couldn't be seen anymore.
"Talk about instant chemistry", Kierra said laughing.
"I know right!" Demitri joined her in laughter.
All of a sudden, a red headed girl with hazel brown eyes and caramel skin, wearing really high heels and a really short black dress came along.
"Demitri!" She squealed kissing his cheek.
Kierra took another sip from her cup lifting an eyebrow at Demitri while he just gave a nervous smile.
"Hey baby", he said, "Kierra, this is my girlfriend Carmen. Carmen, my best friend Kierra", he said looking at both of them.
"Oh I didn't know Demitri had a girlfriend", Kierra said looking at him with a shocked expression.
"That's because I wanted you and Janelle to meet her tonight", he said giving a nervous chuckle while rubbing the back of his neck.
"It's nice to meet you Kierra", she said pushing her long wavy hair behind her ear.
"Likewise", Kierra responded giving a sincere smile.
"Demitri", Carmen's attention shifted, "the guys are playing beer pong, lets go!" She grabbed his arm dragging him towards the backyard.
He looked back at Kierra giving an apologetic expression. She just smiled and waved him off.
Kierra stepped out on the porch and sat on the swing that was there and started texting.
"I see you enjoy being on your phone huh?" Somebody said making her jump.
"Jesus! You scared me", she said laughing slightly.
"I'm sorry I didn't mean to", he said laughing, "I'm Jacob by the way", he said extending his hand to shake hers.
"I'm Kierra", she said shaking his hand.
"You go to school at Kingston university?", he said sitting on the wall opposite her.
"I'm starting tomorrow", she said playing with the cup she had.
"That's awesome, I'm sure you'll like the place", he said smiling at her.
They sat there getting to know each other more until they heard police sirens.
"Where's Jason?" An officer asked Jacob.
"He's somewhe-",
"Connor!!" Jason interrupted Jacob stepping outside the house.
"We received a noise complaint, you have to stop the party and send everyone home", the officer said.
"Ugh okay! Fucking neighbors", he went back into the house and the music came to an abrupt stop.
"Okay everybody! Party's over! Go home!" He shouted and people started flowing out of the house like water.
"Hey, since our conversations been cut short can I get your number?" Jacob asked getting up from the wall he was sitting on.
"Sure", he handed her his phone and she put her number in it and gave it back.
"Yo Kierra!" Demitri shouted, "we gotta go!"
"I'm coming!" She said to him then looked at Jacob, "I've got to go. It was nice meeting you Jacob", she said with a smile.
"Was nice meeting you too", he said winking at her making her blush a little.
She caught up with Demitri and Janelle and they all got into the car.
"So what did y'all think?" He said looking back as he began to reverse.
"I feel like I'm really going to like this school", Kierra said biting her lip.
