netflix, such a wonderful creation, yet the biggest time consumer ever, it's like once you started watching you simply couldn't stop. caleb's entire day had consisted of a movie marathon, starting with the harry potter series and then all the way to american horror story. having just finished the last episode listed on netflix at the time for that particular series he'd heard a knock on his door, undoubtedly his roommate allistair reminding him to get dressed for the party. "i'm up, i'm up!" he yelled in response before shutting his laptop down and sliding from his bed. caleb usually wasn't one for parties but this was his chance to actually do something, besides carmen, the host and his friend, had insisted on him coming. plus this was a great way to renew the crumbling bond between him and his girlfriend reyna, after all there had been a bit of trouble in their rather drab paradise.

within a matter of minutes caleb had showered and gotten dressed up. he now wore a nice red shirt, over it a light grey jacket, his grey and red swim shorts, and of course his favorite red vans. patting his relentlessly messy hair down he whipped out his phone shooting a quick text to reyna, "on my way now, you ready?" then sent it, tucking the phone back away into his jacket pocket before slipping outside his room. as it appeared allistair himself had already left for the party, typical, he always liked being one of the first there. careful to lock their apartment door behind him, caleb finally made his way down to his car and climbed in starting it up. the radio blared out some random country song and he frowned in disgust before switching it to a different station and pulling out.

driving off towards reyna's house, as he'd promised to pick her up on the way to the party, caleb heaved a sigh wondering exactly how well this night would go. after all neither him nor reyna truly were party-goers, as everyone else knew and accepted it too. pulling in to his girlfriends driveway he stepped out and greeted her at the door, seconds later the both getting into the car. "so ah... are you excited to see what tonight brings?" he asked lightly, trying to spark up a decent conversation, as sometimes their conversations just got completely awkward to say the least.

hugo had been debating on whether he should go or not. honestly, he had spent at least two full hours
sitting there in his room, spinning around and trying to waste time on purpose while the thought dangled
in his mind like a spider in it's web. he barely knew the people there, except for mikayla, his sworn enemy.
all he wanted to do, his main goal in life, was to beat her at everything. running a hand through his
chocolate brown curls, hugo stretched his arms before rubbing his eyes, scanning his large room before
stepping forwards and staggering over to his bathroom. he had been tired, his eyes bagging a bit, but
still managed to stay open as he hung his head, using his arms to support himself as he looked up at
the mirror. he had no memory or recollection of yesterday, only that his parents had left to an expensive
business trip in hawaii and he had the mansion to himself. they say being rich is everything- they were
wrong. hugo had always been a smug, jerk-of-a-person to almost everyone, but made the girls swoon
easily and had previous flings that he likes to keep as a way of one-upping mikayla. maybe going to the
party wouldn't be so bad after all, just as a little tease to show off to her. the corners of his lips
lifting into a smile, he yawned before taking a quick shower, refreshing his face and looks before
changing into a navy blue short-sleeved shirt and a pair of white swimming trunks, before packing a
towel into a duffel bag, along with other things a guy might bring to a pool party. snacks, mostly.

the boy couldn't help but note that this wasn't an ordinary pool party. it was going to be hosted at
carmen, one of the most popular girl's at schools' home, which meant that things were probably going
to get pretty frisky. but he shrugged it off- what did he care if someone broke a leg. swinging it over
his shoulder, he locked the door quickly before pausing a moment outside of his grey bentley, the car
belonging with many others before looking up to see mikey speaking to him. a flash of amusement
passed his gaze but was washed away with a look of arrogance. "of course i am, you silly goose."
he called back, praying that had triggered an angry nerve in her. that's what he was best at- making
people angry. "and im not surprised at the least- it's easy to beat you in that wagon of a car."
he retorted, giving her a cocky grin before opening the door, pushing the button to turn it on before
setting the duffel bag beside of him, before pushing another to open the sunroof. "i suppose
that's a challenge." he murmured after her, before grinning and revving on the engine, swerving
the car out of the driveway and onto the street, before stopping momentarily to make a clicking noise
with his teeth and winking before pushing the gas down further and speeding down the road, leaving
black marks etched into the asphault as he hurried to get there before her, swerving at turns as if
his car was a racecar, which it wasn't. too bad speeding is against the law.

xxxxxxher hunter green gaze traveled across the landscape as the car crawled along the streets. the view mainly consisted of bland grey streetlamps and monotonous houses. kendall never grew a fondness for quaint, similar houses, she always had a strong case of wanderlust. her eyes glazed over as the same scene flashed past her window over and over again. streetlamp, house, streetlamp, tree. her feet slid off the dashboard as kayden rounded a turn a bit too fast. kennys jaw dropped as her knees banged painfully on the door. her mouth then clamped shut and she hugged her bruised knees to her chest. she rested her shoes on the seat, most likely leaving two oval shaped dust puddles.

xxxxxxthe mustang dropped over to the curb, with zaydens driving skills shockingly smooth. her feet slipped to the floor as she stretched her arms above her head, with her hands hitting the roof. a lazy yawn escaped her mouth before zayden arrived outside her door. a smile etched across her lips as the gentleman heaved open the freshly cleaned car door. she allowed him to take her hand and pull her from the cars enclosure. the sun beamed onto her head and glared at her eyes. she made a mental note to slip on a pair of sunglasses sometime in the day. she was still in thought about the sun as she felt a persistent tug from Zayden. she stumbled over her feet as he drawed her towards the house. she rolled her eyes resentfully but let him tow her along the path. they finally reached the back gate and he gave her control of her hand again. she tore it away as he released her hand, wringing it with her other hand. she glared at Zayden a bit before he pecked her cheek. her left cheek reddened slightly and she accepted it with a playful smile. "not to shabby yourself, can't wait to see you in the pool." she smirked at him before hauling the gate open and stepping inside.

xxxxxxthe envious girl spotted her boyfriend conversing with bryson. she was aware of their friendship, although did not support it in any way. in fact, she hadn't a taste for bryson. they had dated, or whatever you would call it, a while back and when it ended things were said that should not have been said. now they only communicated through glares. she also noted Diana clinging to alistair not to far off. she may have been friend with Diana, but she always had a speculation that alec and her had a specific interest in each other. her eyes pooled with jealousy and she shuffled towards Zayden. A coy smirk whisked away her clamped mouth and she sauntered back to him. her arm snuggled around his shoulders, slightly awkward with his height. a giggle flooded from her lips and her dancing eyes peered up at him. "what happened to Natalia?" She asked the boy, her voice with a hinting tone. Natalia and her used to get along pleasantly, then things just fell apart. that was when kenny discovered how Natalia really was. They were not on the best of terms now.

xxxxxxas the pair lollygagged towards alec and bryson, she flicked her gaze between alec and zayden. her arm shifted from zaydens shoulders as they came within a meter of the boys. she gave alec a tight lipped smile and leaned in to give him a small kiss on the cheek. her eyes remained open, analyzing his reaction. she watched to see if his eyes flashed with guilt, orif his cheeks reddened more then normal. half of her wanted to see those signs, to confirm her suspicions, but the other half wished for the opposite to be true.

xxxxxxx the disdained response from the dark haired boy earned a substantiated eye roll from bryson. trust allistair to completely twist up a mere sentence without any intention behind it. there wasn't any confusion behind the fact that the two had a particular dislike for one another, yet not for any specific reasoning or anything to do with their histories. truthfully, they hardly converse with each other since the moment they'd met. there had been no real justification to the animosity other than the fact that the two simply didn't favor much to the other's character. nothing personal, except maybe just a little. bryson gently bit down on the tip of his tongue, trapping a 'just take a joke' retort from airing. be civil, he kept telling himself, it's not worth it. instead, he just shrugged it off in favor for turning his attention to his other companion, alec. a small twitch curved at the corner of his lips from the other boy's comment. "i'm glad to see that you've made it, man," he said comfortably, almost thankfully.

xxxxxxx it was then when another party guest made her presence known. she approached the group in a friendly manner and greeted them, in which bryson answered with a small wiggle of his fingers in return. unlike her counterpart, bryson didn't have any issues with diana. they weren't particularly friends per se, but acquaintances who only talk on occasion. however when she'd mentioned kendall, the blonde couldn't help but snuffle a snort while his lip twitched to a tiny sneer. their past relationship had been a hit and complete miss, and with the harsh unspoken history between kendall and himself, the results wasn't much of a surprise to others the fact that the two hardly even associated with each other those days. the only connection between them nowadays seem to be alec, and from his explanation of his girlfriend's whereabouts, it seems like even that might be failing. "i guess it's too obvious that i've been completely whipped today," he said in response to alec's presumption jokingly once allistair pulled diana away. he was already feeling the need for something else to drink, preferably something much stronger.

xxxxxxx however the relaxed smirk eased off his face afterward, replaced by a rather concerning glance at alec. "your whole story sounds like complete bull. more trouble in paradise?" after knowing the other boy over the years, it was not especially difficult to spot the lie, even from a mile away; that plus the fact that bryson already knew of the bloating holes that was sinking their relationship. and even if he wasn't exactly fond of the guy's choice of girlfriends, he was still troubled for his friend. suddenly the unannounced approach of another pair caught his attention, the young man turning his head to see none other than kendall, who was with another lad whom he quickly recognized as zayden. speak of the devil. and despite the fact that the she was hanging off of yet another one of his friends, bryson stiffened uncomfortably at their display, having so obviously been a show for alec to view. he swallowed tensely, chancing a glance back at his companion. yup, there was definitely trouble in paradise.

reyna was watching tv in her apartment, almost completely forgetting about the party, that is, until caleb texting her, asking if she was ready. oops! yeah, give me ten! she texted back, bolting off the couch and searching for something nice to wear. hmm... she found her bikini and slipped it on, pulling a cute green tank top and a pair of light denim short shorts. she found her black and green flip flops and put them on, hoping she looked okay. she wore a black leather vest over this, and put on some waterproof makeup, considering they were going to a pool party, she didn't want makeup dripping down her face. she hoped tonight went well. caleb and she hadn't gotten along too well lately, and things were kind of rocky in their relationship. she wanted things to go well, but she also didn't completely care. she left the apartment after grabbing her purse and locked the door behind her, heading downstairs to wait for caleb. she saw him pull up and she got into the car. "yeah, i'm excited. are you?" ooh, icy. "but, uhm... yeah, i'm excited. i like pool parties." she shrugged slightly, a small smile on her face.

she looked at him as he drove, and was getting a bit impatient to get there. she wanted to see her friends, and she wasn't excited to see the people she didn't like so much. whatever. in a way, she wished things with her and caleb were over with, done, because their relationship wasn't... going too great. in worse words, they were falling apart.

indentMikayla had to keep her mouth from dropping to the ground at Hugo's response. Sure, she had been trying to egg him on, but she hadn't actually expected the idiot boy to challenge her to a race. Did he just call my Porsche a wagon? Mikayla felt an eye twitch begin to go off, her left eye narrowed spasmodically. "My car is not a wagon, Hugo!" Mikayla tried to keep the indignant whine out of her voice, her hands on her hips as she glared at the neighbor boy. She opened her mouth to insult his obnoxious Bentley when he peeled out of his driveway, pausing only to open his sunroof and to wink at her, making that horribly annoying clicking noise with his teeth. It aggravated Mikayla, how cocky her rival dared to be, so she gunned her engine, pulling so fast out of her driveway that she left rubber marks, her tires squealing. Punching the gas pedal with her foot, her Porsche accelerated like a wild predator, snarling gracefully as she completely ignored all stop signs. It was dangerous, and very illegal to speed and disregard general driving rules, but Mikayla really didn't care. She hated Hugo Gardner to the point of death, and would hate to arrive at the party after him. It was dumb, and actually quite petty, which was unlike the normally level-headed Mikayla, but something about Hugo just ticked her off like no one else could, not even Natalia or Kendall. Hugo Gardner was just about the worst people in the world to Mikayla. She kept replaying his wink in her head, every echo of his clicking tongue and flash of his stupid, dimpled grin made Mikayla go even faster.
indentUnsurprisingly, it wasn't too long before she was pulled over, and just when she had been about to catch up to Hugo, who had gotten a very unfair head start. Not to mention, Hugo was speeding too, but she didn't see him being pulled over for traffic violations. Sighing after she heard the sirens, Mikayla slowed down, pulling over next to the curb and rolling her window down. She figured she might as well cooperate with the officer. Her ticket would just be worse if she resisted or was rude to him.
indent"You know why I pulled you over, I assume?" The officer's voice was curt and critical, glaring down at Mikayla like she was a juvenile delinquent. Mikayla nodded in response, opening her mouth to say something, but the officer cut her off. "You were going over eighty miles an hour in a residential area. I don't even know how that's possible, but your Porsche managed to get it that fast, even with all the turns in the neighborhood. Not to mention, you ran every single stop sign on your way, and I'm pretty sure you nearly ran a child over as he was running to get his ball. Why on earth were you going so fast?"
indentMikayla bit her lip so hard it nearly bled, not exactly prepared to say it was a racing competition, because that would just get her into more trouble. Had I really been going over eighty? It couldn't have been that fast... I mean, I slowed down a little bit at the stop signs! She kept her thoughts to herself though, biting her tongue to keep from attempting to argue with the police officer.
indentWhen Mikayla didn't respond, the officer sighed and motioned for her to get out of the car, which Mikayla obeyed. Aiming a glare at where Hugo's car used to be, she exited her dark red Porsche, desperately hoping the police officer would give her a light punishment, just a warning or something. She hadn't ever violated the rules before, never even gotten a speeding ticket. It was all Hugo Gardner's fault for goading her on, pissing her off, and making her very flustered and angry. Swallowing her nervousness, Mikayla gazed at the cop steadily, head held high. "You don't look drunk. Or high, for that matter. That means you're just a stupid kid driving dangerously out of your neighborhood. Not good," The cop's tired voice made Mikayla irritated, as she hadn't actually hit anything or anyone, but she knew to keep her trap shut while he issued punishment.
indent"Look, you seriously could have harmed someone. This wasn't on the highway, where people go pretty fast without incident. This was in your own neighborhood, where there are kids and people on the streets. You ignored all traffic rules and regulations, and you were speeding. A lot. You're a danger on the road, which means you can't be trusted with your car. I'm going to call and get this towed. You'll have to pay a speeding ticket as well as the fee for the towing hook-up. And that's getting off lightly, considering your age and your recklessness." Mikayla could only nod.
indentMikayla felt her heart drop when the officer called some tow truck service and actually took her precious Porsche away from her. Huffing and puffing like the big bag wolf, Mikayla could do nothing but stand by and watch as the tow service came and impounded her lovely car down to the police station. The only thing she had was her phone, which was in her dress pocket. The officer hadn't even let her take her towel or her duffel bag with her, which was so extremely stupid. She'd be able to get all her stuff back after she paid all her fines, yada-yada-yada. Mikayla felt a deep hatred for the justice system just then, although she knew inside that she deserved it. Mikayla had been pretty reckless out there, anyways.
indent"Looks like I'll be walking to the party, then. Or I could just go back home," Mikayla mused to herself, her sandals flopping against the road. Tickets and fines stuffed in one hand, her phone in the other, Mikayla made her way to the sidewalk, where she sat down in a huff on the curb, her head on her knees. She really didn't feel like moving, but would find the effort to walk back home when she got over the loss of her vehicle and dignity.

drumming his fingers on the steering wheel of his lexus, thiago debated between going up to megan’s door and waiting a little longer for her to come out. he’d sent her a text on his way over to her house, but who was to say she had read it? she had yet to make her appearance, anyway. then again, he’d only been waiting for maybe a minute or so; theo didn’t have a reputation for being a patient kind of guy, after all, but it might be a good idea not to pressure her. they’d recently overcome a rough patch and he didn’t want to screw anything up so soon. he figured he ought let her take her time choosing her bikini or doing her makeup or whatever girls did in order to prepare for pool parties. personally it had taken theo all of two minutes to find his swim trunks and throw on a t-shirt and he didn’t understand what there was to dress up for, but who was he to question the ways of the female gender when he found himself so easily captivated by them? it was a weakness of his. he shut his eyes and tipped his head back, letting it rest against the leather seat. tonight going to make munford history, he was sure; what else was he supposed to expect when it was being hosted by carmen? it was just a matter of how. and he was right about that; nobody in attendance was going to forget this night anytime soon. but — and theo had no way of knowing this yet — it would be for all the wrong reasons.
at the sound of the car door opening, he opened his eyes just in time to catch megan as she buckled up. “hi,” he said back in response to her greeting. backing out of the driveway, he took a moment to spare her another once-over. “you look great, reese’s pieces,” he said with an appreciative grin. “gotta work on that timing, though; I bet everybody’s waiting for us. you know, the party doesn’t start ‘til I get there.” a wink, and they were on the road, radio blasting green day all the way to carmen’s house.
a number of cars already lined the street, and theo parked behind a white camry before getting out and swiftly crossing over to megan’s side to take her arm as she stepped out. like the gentleman he was [yeah, right] he escorted her around to the backyard, where the strains of conversation could already be heard. eyes automatically seeking out the group that contained his friend bryson, he made a beeline for the cluster of boys, disregarding the fact that he was about the enter the company of known enemies and towing megan along with him, having quite forgotten that she might not want to be surrounded by a bunch of males and never once considering the possibility that she might actually prefer this bunch of males’ company to his. “bryce,” he said with a grin, always glad to have at least one friendly face in the crowd. with considerably less warmth, he nodded curtly to the other two. “alec. allistair.” catching zayden out of the corner of his eye with none other than kendall, theo arched an eyebrow at alec. “hey man, what’s zay doing with your girlfriend? having trouble holding onto her?” he said in mock sympathy, though the gleeful cast to his features told a different story.

natalia hadn’t been invited to this pool party, but the old grapevine had proved useful in gleaning the time and location, as well as the identity of its hostess. carmen, of course, hadn’t thought to invite her, which tally found totally rude. never mind that even their resident queen bee couldn’t fit the one hundred and twenty eight people of their senior class in her backyard; tally fully expected that, as one of carmen’s oldest enemies, she expected to at least receive an invitation out of some passive-aggressive move on the prep’s part. and so here she was in front of her rival’s house, staring up at its pristine white façade and feeling immense satisfaction at the fact that she was about to crash a party. parking her infiniti on the side of the road, she noticed with interest that zay’s car was already there— evidently he’d received an invite and hadn’t told her, a fact which she found both interesting and worrying. even if he’d naturally assumed that she’d been invited, he hadn’t spoken to her at all about going there together, which roused the brunette’s suspicion and curiosity. true, they’d agreed that their relationship wasn’t exclusive, but she still found that she was bothered by the possibility that he was doing something behind her back. before they had been a couple they had been friends, and this kind of betrayal went straight down to their roots: friends went to parties together, or not at all. it would be probably best to see what was going on for herself. subconsciously bracing herself for the worst, the tall girl loped around back, fingers hitched in the back pockets of her jean shorts. and there, what met her eyes was indeed what she had been dreading but, to be honest, also sort of expecting: kendall tourie, her former friend, kissing her boyfriend. it was chaste, an innocuous peck on the cheek, but it was the thought that counted. and tally wasn’t about to let that behavior slide. especially coming from kendall, the two-faced traitor.
she wasted no time in getting over there, and within moments she was standing in front of the two, weight on one leg and hand on her hip— a confrontational pose, yes, but tally was feeling confrontational. “zay. ken. hello,” she said in a voice dripping with false sweetness, keeping her gaze on both their faces in order to gauge their reaction to her presence. her next words, she directed at kendall alone: “funny, last time I checked, zay was my boyfriend. is there something going on here that I need to know about?” a pointed glance between the two, and it was only then that she deigned to shoot a look at the boy in question, equal parts stung, accusing, and… scheming? yeah, scheming. tally didn’t let these things slip past her. she wasn’t going to roll over and accept whatever zayden and kendall were up to; she just wasn’t that kind of chick. already, her focus was wandering, prematurely searching for a suitable victim for the ploy that was beginning to form in her mind. zay was playing this game with her? well, tally considered herself the master of dirty tricks, and she was all too happy to trump him. it was just a matter of finding the right person to spoon-feed his medicine right back to him.

★. ａｌｅｃ ｂｏｏｋｅｒ,
___→_dating: kendall , mood: very irritated, tagged: bryson, thiago, kendall, zayden, natalia

______he hated this attention, he hated being evaluated. even though bryson was his friend, it still made him feel like some kind of science experiment. any other subject was fine, but this one? maybe it was a little too new, a little too raw at the moment. he let out a long sigh, followed by a scoff when bryson referred to his relationship with kendall in paradise. "yeah, paradise. right." he shook his head slightly, and then took a couple steps to a nearby table that held refreshments. he used a ladle to scoop punch into a cup, one for himself, and one for bryson. he handed bryson the cup, and turned around to rest a hand on the table behind him.

______"she's like a full time job, kendall is." alec lifted the cup up to his mouth, and sipped from the cup. when he pulled the cup from his face, he saw her. she didn't come alone, god no. what on earth was she doing with zayden? why his friend of all people. alec found himself staring with lowered eyebrows, a scowl on his face, and the hand that held his drink tightening. his knuckles were white at this point, and the only thing that could possibly pull him out of this angry gaze was the voice of thiago. great.

______his scowl didn't fade, if anything it only grew worse with his smart comment. his next move was completely on impulse. within seconds, he was spilling the drink in his hand onto thiago's torso. "oops, you know me, I couldn't hold onto it." he gave him a snide look. alec could feel his heart thumping, not from fear, not from excitement, but anger. this was strange, and it almost hurt. he set the now empty cup on the table behind him, and began to walk forward. "I'll be right back." alec said to bryson as he walked away from the small group.

______he plastered a smile on his face, it was fake, forced. the kind of smile that was painful to produce, but it was necessary. he walked up to kendall, the smile still on his face. "hey, kenny!" he said just before kissing her lightly, and then draping an arm around her waist. he let out a long breath from his nose as he gave zayden a look that definitely read 'back off'. it was so strange to give someone he considered a friend that look.

______he then turned his head to look at natalia. she hated his guts, and he couldn't say he didn't feel the same about her. ugh, and now he had to stand here and talk to her, to cover up what ever his girlfriend was doing with zayden. "there's nothing going on here." alec quickly said. "you know how kendall is, she gets a little too chummy sometimes." he lifted a hand to pinch the girl's cheek as if she were a child. he then cleared his throat, and narrowed his eyes slightly as he looked at natalia. "you're not even supposed to be here, are you?" he knew very well that natalia and carmen weren't exactly best friends, and right now he'd have to feed on that to change this embarrassing subject.

indent Diana noticed the tense mood between the guys and suddenly regretted making her way towards her boyfriend. She didn't even know if Allistair was her boyfriend anymore since he was literally hooking up with every girl. Bittersweet memories started to flash back in Diana's head before she shook it to make them leave. Focusing back on the topic at hand, she glanced at Alec to see the hurt look on his face. She wanted to comfort him for the pain he was feeling. Sometimes, she liked Kendall and other times, not so much. Right now, she was the only girl friend that was going to attend. If Natalie or Reyna did, then she would be even a happier girl.

indent Diana squirmed when Allistair put an arm around her waist. It felt strange to her for some reason. She wanted some other guy to be her date for the party right now and not her own boyfriend. Showing the look on her face, she gave a sad smile to Alec, hoping he knew what it meant. She honestly was sympathizing with him right now about his relationship. Apparently, this world had to be a messed up place since everywhere she looked someone was cheating on their own partner. She couldn't deny the fact that she was the same but it was literally in her family to cheat on the person you were with.

indent Allistair dragged Diana towards the backyard where he had said that Kendall was there. When they reached, she didn't see her anywhere. "Are you sure she's even here yet? Who's she getting a ride with if she didn't come with Alec?" she inquired from Allistair. Diana had an unsettling feeling that Allistair knew about Kendall's whereabouts but she didn't want to give in to the feeling so she stood proudly. Just when she was about to confront all of her fears from Allistair, she caught sight of a friend. Theo. A gleeful smile appeared on her face but she didn't leave the spot. She couldn't let Allistair see that side of her. For some reason, she liked Thiago more than a friend. He was getting super cute as he grew older but she had known him since they were young. Looking back at Allistair, she smirked and then said something typical, "Wanna have a drinking challenge?" She was quite childish at times, especially at parties but a drinking challenge with Allistair was going to be fun since they always did that at parties.
