Creeek, I wake up to the sound of floor boards by my door. Thinking it was Bee I sit up and run a hand through my h/c(=hair color) hair. Blinking my eyes I feel my stomach grumble in hunger and decide to go have a midnight snack like I told Bee I would. As I'm opening the door I hear voices coming from downstairs. 'That's odd Bee usually tells me if she's gonna have friends over.' Deciding to just believe she forgot to tell me, I become grateful that I had a sports bra on, I hate not having one on when around strangers. I get about two steps out the door before I'm pulled to the ground. "What the-," I start to say but a hand covers my mouth and I start to panic...
But it's just Cole. "What the he-," and he cuts me off again by making a shh hand gesture and pointing the group of people in our living room. They are sitting in a circle and, you guessed it, Bee was with them. I know them all, they're seniors at my school and about 2 years older than me.
First, is Max. He is pretty tall, brown hair, brown eyes, wearing a white t-shirt, jeans, a denim jacket to top it off, handsome as hell, school quarter back, popular, has a funny sense of dark humor, and, thanks to my idiotic hormones, my current crush. I don't think it matters though, he's out of my league and has a bit of a reputation. And based off of said rep. I'm not his type. Second, is Allison. I'm just gonna come out and say it, she's a dumb slut. She's wearing her cheerleading uniform, all white tennis shoes, and a low cut letterman's jacket, with her red hair in a half ponytail with a ribbon. She says she wants to be a big time journalist even though she can't spell, and everyone knows she paid and slept her way through high school. She can be sweet, but she has some issues.
Third, is John. John has nice colored dark skin, he's an absolute dork, he has a sort of stubble beard, is wearing a blue grey sweater with stars on, jeans, and converse. He's in with the popular crowd, has a funny, but pretty unoriginal sense of humor, and wants to platinum. His music's not half bad either, the school let him play some of his mixtape at a school dance. Fourth, is Sonya. She gives off a girly goth vibe. Wearing a white sweater, black tie, black skirt, black tights, black shoes, and a black beret. She's also pretty cool. She really likes cookies and I don't know what she wants for the future.
Then, there's Samuel? Sam's a new boy at school and has been hanging out with Bee, but how did he become friends with the rest? Sam's a scrawny guy, big glasses, bangs, wearing a striped golf shirt, and dark brown khakis. He's a real nerd and he's really awkward especially now around all of them. That's all I know about him. Lastly, is Bee. She's still wearing her jean shorts, white shirt, healed boots, and olive green jacket on top. I've seen her around all these people at school, but she's never had anyone over while "baby"sitting. This doesn't feel right.
They're all playing spin the bottle truth or dare and drinking out of blue solo cups. Allison's spin lands on Max. "Truth me." he tells her leaning back on the palms of his hands.
"Out of everyone here," she starts looking at him and half laying on her side, "who would you wanna sleep with the most." 'She obviously expects him to say her.' I think and role my eyes.
"Sonya." He says and looks towards said girl and she smiles back at him like it's an inside joke of theirs. They all "ooh" an laugh. "100%," he adds and Allison groans, while I stifle a laugh. "Sam," Max says and taps Sam's knee with his foot, "you're a close second stud." Sam gives an awkward nod towards him. Max gets up and spins the bottle say it was his turn. It lands on Bee.
"Oo Bee truth or dare?" "Dare." she answers Max immediately.
"I dare you to kiss everyone here," he says with a smirk.
"Alright," she says, getting up on her knees. After kissing Max and quoting the god father part 2, having a heated mini-makeout with Allison, licking John's face, and kissing Sonya on the forehead she got to Sam. They group had to assure him he could do it, Bee included, before they kissed. It was romantic almost at first, until she pulled away. She pulled to knifes above her head and brought them down, stabbing Sam in the head with both. Cole and I were speechless. Max held up Samuel's body.
"Shh shh shh, you are helping fulfill a great purpose, know this." Bee told him as he died.
"I don't wanna fulfill a great porpoise!" He cries.
"Did he just say porpoise?" Max asks as Sonya and John stand on either side of the poor dying boy, gold goblets in hand.
"Ready?" Bee asks, Sonya answers and John nods. She pulls the knives from his skull and they start catching the blood with the goblets, until John's side stops leaking.
"Wait, hold on, my shit ain't workin'," John mumbles and taps by the cut. Then a huge amount of blood sprays out and drenches his face in blood.
"Oh, shit," Max says with a laugh. "All that blood was just in his boner." Max laughs again.
"Max don't laugh," Bee tells him, "John relax. His blood is serving you."
"Oh, shit. I did not sign up for this shit to serve me in my mouth!" John exclaims. Bee continues to tell John that he knew what he signed up for. "You wanna go platinum John? Things can get messy when you make a deal with the devil."
After gathering the blood Bee tells Sonya to bring in the cases. 'What cases?' I wonder. In too much shock to be afraid. Cole on the other hand was scared and crying. I grabbed his hand and squeezed it, as if to tell him we'll be ok. Sonya rolled in to large cases. "What's in the box?" Max said, moving Sam's mouth to make it look like he was talking. Bee opened the case and pulled out an old book and opened it when John asked why they needed it.
"Well, the Jews have their scrolls, Christians have their bibles, and the devil has his verses." she told them and then warned not to touch it. She slams the book when they reach to touch it again and says in a fun accent, "Alrighty babes let's get started before we head upstairs and get the blood of the innocent."
Cole and I get up and head as quickly and quietly to our rooms as we can. I stop by his door with him. "Cole," I start and he looks at me teary-eyed. "Go in your room and call the cops ok I'm gonna get my crossbow and knife, get yours too. Then you need to hide if you can, if not pretend to be asleep. ok?" He nods and I gently push into his room. Going into my own I pull out my crossbow I begged mom and dad to get me last Christmas and my pocket knife, thinking of what to do before I hear the sound of them talking and coming up the stairs.
I immediately jump in my bed, pull the covers over my head, and pretend to be unconscious. I hear them go into Cole's room and listen. "Yo, this kid's hobby must be getting bullied." I heard John say to no one in particular and then say something about one of Cole's book.
"Won't he hear us?" Sonya asked I think Bee, by now I had gotten out of bed and was listening through the wall.
"With the amount of drugs I gave him, hell no.", Bee answered. Drugs? When did she give him drugs. Then it hit me. The shot. It was weird for her to be irresponsible with us, now it makes sense. "Do you have the needle?", Bee inquired to someone. Needle?! Oh no. Cole is petrified of needles.
"Of course I have the needle.", was Sonya's reply.
"You know there is a faster way to get all that blood.", it was Max that voiced the statement. Fear for my brother's safety started to spread through my body, but Bee rejected his idea.
"Do you know what happens when you kill someone?", she questioned the group.
"They lose like all their Instagram followers.", was John's answer. Allison gasped, "Oh my God that would suck." I told you she was stupid.
"No," Bee was talking again,"they die and then I would have to find another innocent kid. And all of this only works if we get that top shelf pure shit. And Cole is basically a faucet of that for us. After this we finish the ritual and your wish comes true. Damn I missed the vein." Damn, how much blood were they taking?
"Hey doesn't he have a sister?" My blood ran cold as John asks the question. Before Bee can answer it's surprisingly Max that does, "Yeah, Y/n. She's pretty hot." I blush against my will.
"You're kidding, right?", it's Allison who says this,"She's a huge nerd and super awkward. I mean who could like that?" I swear I hear Max growl, but he doesn't say anything.
"Okay," John breaks to awkward silence that had ensued, "let's go mix some blood!" They all leave Cole's room in words of enthusiastic agreement and then I get an idea. I told Bee I didn't drink the alcohol and that I'd probably be up for a midnight snack as usual. I could pretend I just woke up and maybe she can explain what's going on. I know she killed that guy, but she's still Bee one of my best friends, right? Right. I get slowly get up, put my knife in my pocket and my bow under the bed, before slowly opening my door. I pretend to be sleepy, rubbing one of my eyes like I always do for affect, and walk into the hall. "Bee?", I question, but Bee isn't with the group she is still in Cole's room. I stare at them for a second. Max's eyes boring into me.
"Hi...?"
