Avery's Pov:
It was the middle of the night and I couldn't fall asleep. I tried counting sheep and drinking milk but nothing worked. So I decided to change into joggers, a dark blue tank top, and a grey sweater over it, and some black Jordan's. I put my long light brown colored hair into a loose ponytail, I put my laptop inside its case, grabbed my phone and put it in there too.
I opened my bedroom window and climbed out and ran to the park. I found a nice canopy over an old picnic table and set my laptop down there. I went into my music and chose track five. It's a nice remix that has slow tango with some really fast beats from hip- pop my friend Jimmy made for me. The song started and I began to dance. I dance with my heart and soul as if the music spoke to my feet and told them what to do. I never thought about moves I just let my body go with the music.
When the song was over I heard clapping behind me so I turned around. Standing by the swings were all these people, I counted around twenty but I could be wrong. Then this guy who looked close to my age came forward and took my laptop. "Hey get your own!" I said, all he did was look at me with his hazel eyes saying nothing. He then turned back to my laptop and scrolled down to track eleven.
This song that was a remix using a beat from "What do you mean" and "Lean on" and "You know you like it" was blaring full blast from the speakers. The guy that used my laptop was in the middle and the rest were around him. They started dancing doing tricks and flips here and there. They were amazing dancing with such talent that I have never seen!
When the dance and song were over they high five'd each other and hugged each other knowing that they did an outstanding job which they did.
The guy from earlier looked back at me and I just turned around and started putting my laptop away and checking the time on my phone. It was only one-thirty in the morning and I didn't have to go back until around six so I still had plenty of time left. "You dance as if it's your last day on earth." said a deep but soothing voice. I looked behind me and it was the boy from earlier.
"Thanks for the compliment" "No problem. Hey me and the guys are going to this party and well you are a great dancer so.....would you like to go?" I looked at him with a curious look in my face. "How do I know that your not a kidnapper or be a secret murderer or be a criminal?"
He looked shocked by this comment but soon a smirk replaced it. "You don't that's the fun of the mystery. So I'll take that as a yes." "I don't have a choice do I?" "Not unless you think that I'm not cute."
I couldn't say that he was ugly or cute. He was handsome with his black as night hair covering a bit of his face towards the front but the sides are in a shorter cut which made him look much handsomer.
His face was perfectly sculpted his nose complementing his plump pink lips and jaw. I quickly snapped out of my thoughts and spoke.
"Why ask a question that you already know the answer to? Or are you to afraid to be rejected?" He just grins and answers back.
"Because I want you to come with us and I won't take no for an answer." "Fine sure." I said giving up. "But first who are you?"
"I'm Brandon Hunt." and he took out his hand for me to shake. "I'm Avery Miller." and I shook his hand. "Avery nice name now let's go to that party!!!" I couldn't help but laugh a bit. He took me across the street to three jeeps. One was red, one was black, and the other one was White. Brandon and I were in the red one and he was driving while I was seated across from him.
"Hi I'm Harper nice to meet you Avery but that is my seat cause you see that's my boyfriend" said a blond girl that wore clothes too revealing even for her. She wore a bra with a tank top that showed her figure and not too mention her bra. She wore ripped tights and high heels. who wears heels and dances like that!?
"Harper let her sit there she is our guest for the night" "Fine but you better not fall for him he's mine." she whispered to me so I whispered back. "Don't worry Harper I'm not into those guys either way I already have a boyfriend his name's Jimmy." I said lying through my teeth. She didn't say another comment and just went to the back and took her seat. The car ride began and I couldn't wait to dance!
We ended up in this place called "Under-Dog" and it lived up to its name. The entrance was around the back and down the cellar of this old looking hotel. The deeper we went the louder the music got, soon we arrived at to big doors with one guard at each door.
"Code 267708" said Brandon and the guards opened the doors.
Inside it was like a dream! There was a DJ booth at the top of this balcony and people were dancing their hearts out. There was a bar serving drinks and a snack booth serving food. I went into the dance floor and started dancing to the beat.
I suddenly felt a pair of hands on my waist. Those hands turned my body around and I was soon staring into familiar hazel eyes. He was staring back into my dark brown ones. "Hey when you're done checking me out maybe we can dance?" I remarked to him. "Oh I-I wasn't.......what I m-mean.....Yes lets dance." he stuttered. We found a new clearing just the right size for us to do our own dances without hitting anyone by accident. The song changed into something more modern and edgy. Brandon danced first and I have to admit he was amazing. He did his own moves from the choreography and added a few more different moves.
When he was done I applauded politely and he took a bow and then I laughed at his silliness.
"You're not half bad. I like the new moves that you added."
"You noticed? Wow that's a first and thanks. Now lets see what you can do beginner" He said jokingly. Oh he hasn't seen everything I can do. A new song came and it was a slower song but still with some edge and some very fast notes.
I started of slower then him and continued to make it look like it was boring and that anyone could do it. When that single fast beat came up I took it up. I started to actually dance and it looked to me like Brandon's jaw slightly dropped but he recovered his face that said "Hey that's nothing I can do it in my sleep" even tho we both knew he couldn't. I continued to let the music guide my body through the counts. then I jumped high in the air, pushed my body backwards and managed to land in a perfect stand that went perfectly with my next move.
Soon the music stopped soon as it had come and I did my last move. I stood up and looked around to see that we had gathered a crowd. People were cheering for me, they thought that I was good.
"That was great for a beginner-" Brandon started to speak but I interrupted him. "A beginner? Huh well then this "Beginner" just kicked your sorry butt so just man up and admit it." He had a shocked expression on his face but again he soon covered it with his usual "cool" look.
Meanwhile the crowd around us were like "Wow this girl rocks!" and "Man bro she just treated the captain of the 14K" Before anyone else could say something I made my way out from the middle of the crowd and into the drinks bar.
"Hey what can I get such a beautiful girl like you?" said the guy behind the counter. He had high cheek bones, a defined jaw, buzz cut hair, and soft green eyes with a grin on his face.
"You can just give me water please and thank you." "Make it two" said a familiar voice behind me.
"Is this seat taken?" I didn't want him to sit there because then Harper would come and give me all her drama and drama is something that I'm trying to avoid. "Yes the seat is taken." I lied and not a moment too soon did the bar guy whose name tag read John came with our drinks.
I grabbed my water and was getting out some cash when Brandon took out a twenty and told John to keep the change.
"Thanks but I could've paid for it myself. i don't need your money and here" I said while giving John five dollars which was the amount of money my water cost making John give Brandon back the twenty. "No it's ok I gladly did it. You want to dance again?" "No I'm going to sit this one out. Your girlfriend is waiting for you. Bye" And I left without another word. I sat next to this girl named Julia Benet who is kind of like Brandon's little sister not biological tho. She's around 5'1, has dark hazel hair with aqua green low lights, black glasses and is a junior in high-school like me. We chat for some time and laughed together but soon stopped when we turned our heads in the direction of this big circle.
I had a feeling that Brandon and Harper were in the circle so me and Julia pushed and shoved through all the people and were on the inward outline of a fight going on or at least about to happen with Brandon against john from the bar. John's cute and sure is built almost like Brandon. I told Julia to stay where she was and I went inside the inner circle where the fight was about to happen I grabbed Brandon's arm and gently tugged on his arm signaling for him to look at me. He turned his head and looked at me with this look in his eyes as in furious. It was scary but I needed to stop this fight before anything else happens and we get kicked out or thrown in jail.
"Brandon please calm down and lets leave you know that this fight may not really be worth it." I said in my most soothing voice. He calmed a bit down and he at least turned his full body around and was starting to walk away. Two steps later he spins around quickly and punches John straight in the jaw. "That's for my girlfriend" then he looks at Harper who's on the ground helping John. "And Harper we are done you can do whatever you want as long as it doesn't involve me." he then grabbed my arm and yanked me towards the door leading outside the club and into the red jeep. Before we left I managed to grab my stuff quickly as we passed by the table giving Julia an I-will-handle-this look and smiling. She gave me an unsure smile back but didn't do anything to stop us.
Even though him yanking on my arm would probably leave some bruises I didn't say a single word. He drove over to a house that was two stories high with the outside walls the color of dark green with outlines of black which I guess is his house. He parked the car on the driveway and soon it started to rain hard. We got out and walked quickly inside the house. Once inside Brandon went upstairs to I guess either the bathroom or his room. I took my drenched sweater off and hanged it on the coat hanger. I found the kitchen and started looking around and soon I found a tea kettle, two cups, and some tea. I put water from the sink into the kettle and then set the kettle on the stove. I was soon done making the tea and soon filling both cups with tea when I felt a presence behind me.
"You didn't have to do this you know but I'm grateful you did cause I'm cold." "Sure no problem since I'm cold to."
"Where are my manners? Go upstairs and take a right. You should see a black door so open it since it'll be my room. On my bed will be some clothes you can borrow and the bathroom is the cream colored door. If you want different clothes the closet is the grey colored door." I said a quick thank you and followed his directions. I found the black door and entered his room which was surprisingly clean and tidy and just like he said there were some clothes on of his bed. I went over to the bed and grabbed the clothes to see what he had picked out for me to wear. He picked out a large white tee, some black shorts that you can adjust to fit you, and a black beanie. I also found a towel next to the clothes which I'm guessing is to be used when I'm done showering. I grabbed the clothes and towel and entered the bathroom. It was the color grey-blue and very modern with some dark blue swirls on the top outline of the bathroom. I took off my clothes and hopped into the shower putting it on warm level.I grabbed his shampoo and hair conditioner and ran it through my hair. It made my hair smell like mint,masculine. It made my hair smell like him.
