Cali's POV
"Come out of the car, Cali." Jake says, annoyed with my stubbornness. I shake my head and grip the headboard tighter.
Eva and I had reached the party venue and met Jake there. Now I begin to realize how dumb decision I had made to come here.
What
At first I thought this was a good idea as coming here would mean, Eva would stop pestering me about Blake.
"Cali! You are just wasting your time. Please just get out!" Eva says angrily.
"No! I won't!" I reply, thinking they would give up.
"I didn't feed you a pizza just for you to not get out of the car." Eva says and starts pulling me out. I give up and get out. Eva and Jake sigh in relief.
Ok. Let me tell you this. River's house, more like mansion, was the biggest one I had ever seen. Music could be heard from 2 to 3 miles away.
When we entered the party, the only smell that could be smelled was of alcohol and sweat. Eva was lying when she said the party was sophisticated for even sometime.
"Come back to the car at 12. We will meet there!" Jake shouts over the music and we both nod. Seconds later both Jake and Eva disappear.
"Hey! Cali?" A strange voice was heard behind me. I turn around to see Spencer there. I was shocked that he even knew my name.
"Yes?" I ask weirdly. He points toward the maybe kitchen. I follow him there.
"Grab a drink." He says and gets a red cup for me.
"I don't drink." I reply and reject it. But he forcefully hands it over to me.
"Don't drink it but just hold it. Or maybe someone else might get you something spiked." He says and I take the drink, finding the reason thoughtful.
"Catch you later." I say and walk out of there.
"You look great by the way." He shouts from behind and I just chuckle. I knew that he said that jokingly.
I go and sit on a couch, with the cup in my hand. Bored, I take a sip and find the drink too strong but liked the feeling. And then bam! The cup was empty as I drank all of it.
I get up to get another one.
--------+++++-------
Drink after drink. I don't even remember how much I drank. Maybe 2 or 4. Why do we call two two? Somehow I end up on the dance floor. And the next thing I know I start falling. "Titanic!" I shout and someone catches me.
"Blake! Hi! I have a question! Who even invented math. Or was math found? Maybe math does not even exist. Why are we supposed to learn math? Am I gonna drive and see that the speed limit sign be like '2x+x=90'. If you ever feel cold, stand at the corner of the room cause it's 90 degrees there." I say and laugh. Blake was shocked.
"Cali, are you drunk?" He asks.
"What is drunk? I am not drunk. I am Cali. Why is the zebra black and white? Maybe they have color but we can't see it!!! Oh my God I am the next Einstein!" I say happily. Oh my God I just decoded the DA Vinci code.
I was still in his arms. He was taking me outside. There something caught my eye. I jerked his hands off me and ran up to the fountain.
"Water! I love water! Blake do you like water? You can not like water! Water is Mine!" I shriek. Blake was running behind me.
"Cali! Sit down!" Blake shouts at me. I fall still and sit right on the grass of River's backyard. I impersonate a fountain of tears. "She is like a sugar high kid." He mumbles.
"Blake scolded me! Mom! Blake scolded me!" I cried out. He slaps his hand on his head. And comes towards me. I wait until he is close enough. He bents down and then I push him in the fountain.
"Hahaha! Mum I took my revenge." I shout out. Blake growls angrily and comes out of the water, totally wet.
"Cali! You better stop right now." He says, slowly in a threatening tone. I smile innocently at him.
Then I see it. The pool. I drag Blake towards it.
"Fine spongebob in it! Please." I ask desperately. Maybe he needs help. Maybe he is drowning. Sponge Bob don't worry I am coming. Well not me but Blake. Same difference.
"No! Cali. Stop." He puts his arms around me and pulls me down.
"Blake!" I shout. Startling him in the process. "Give me your phone!" I ask eagerly and put my palm in front of him. He looks at me weirdly. After a moment he hands over his IPhone to me.
I put it on airplane mode and throw it. It goes right inside the pool.
"What the...?" Blake was shocked to say at least.
"Your phone was broken. I put it on airplane mode and it still did not fly." I say and shrug. I get up and run over back to the kitchen. My heels were long back abandoned. And there he was. Sitting on the sink.
"Sponge Bob! I missed you." I run over to him and start talking to him.
"Where is Patrick? And how are you doing? What bout squidward? Is he still grumpy? And Mr Crabbs? Does he still underpay you?" I ask all my doubts to it.
"Hey Cali! How is life going?" It replies.
"Oh it's going great!" I answer it back. Then I feel a hand on my shoulder and I turn around.
"I was talking to you!" Hadley, who I don't remember where I have seen before, says. Now I know why sponge Bob sounded so girly.
"Oh hi!" I say, stupidly. I wasn't able to stand on my feet so I took support from the sink. Then Blake made his grand entry. With his face red, and clothes wet, he looked homeless. Hehe Blake the homeless.
"Cali! Stop running!" He comes and grabs my arm. With a stiff nod to Hadley, Blake drags me to a room upstairs.
I start giggling on the thought of Blake being a sensible person.
He makes me sit on the bed. "I am going to get you some water. Do not. And I mean. Do not leave the room at any cost." He say and leaves.
I, for the first time, obey him. Ok, I do obey him for some minutes but then I got bored so I left the room and run downstairs and outside. I end up back in the backyard.
"Hehe. Blake, the blameless. More like Blake, the shameless." I joke to myself. I hear a whistle from behind me.
Then two arms forcefully push me against the wall. I struggle to get free but the guy was a lot stronger. His hands were strong against mine.
"Get away from me!" I shout. Now, I had gone to self defence classes. I bite his hand making him flinch, moving his hand away for minute before placing it firmly away from my mouth.
"Where will you go, sweetheart?" He says and kisses my hands. I was disgusted and tried kicking him where the sun never shine. But he blocked it. He went for my lips but before he could, he was pushed away from me.
"Do Not Touch A girl when she says not to." Blake punches the guy till the guy was all red.
The alcohol was still in my system, so the actual thing didn't quite register in my head yet. No. It did not happen. It did not happen.
But it did.
He threatens the guy once again and then comes up to me. He puts his hands on my shoulder, probably to pick me. He carries me towards a car, probably his.
"I.. I need to use the washroom." I say weakly. He nods and takes me towards one in the house. The first thing I do is wash my hands. Once. Twice. Thrice. But I could still feel the disgust of that son of a bitch's touch on my hands. That sick bastard.
I washed my hands until they were red from scrubbing so much. I remembered that Blake was maybe waiting for me outside so I left the washroom.
Blake took in my posture and then stared at my red hands. He pulls me out to his car. I quietly sit in it. Blake sits in too.
The car ride was silent.If I ever see that bastard again, I will kill him.
I hear my car door being opened by Blake. We were at my house. I get out and he shuts the door close.
"Thank you." I stare at my hands.
"Don't ever think of that. It did not happen." He says. Then he holds my hands and kisses it. "Better?"
"Yeah." I mumble and stare at our hands, slight warmth filling my belly. Then I pull off mine. After thanking him again, I rush into my house and run up to my room.
I go in for a hot shower. Changing into pajamas, I tried to sleep. If sleep were to be my escape, nightmares followed me even up there.

Cali's POV"Get off me!" I was trapped. Those gross hands, were in places I would never like them in. He started laughing like a maniac.
Cali's POV"You better start talking." Jake says as he comes and takes his place in front of me and hand me over my ice cream."Why do you always get vanilla ice cream? It's so bland." I rudely comment on his taste."And why do you always get different ice creams?" He asked ba
Cali's POVI heard voices, that was what woke me up. To be more specific, I heard 'You can't do this to me! Wake up, God dammit!' When I opened my eyes, I met with glassy grey eyes. For a minute I was confused, I saw him freeze and then,"Holy -" add censor words here. I notice the position we are in. My head was on his lap, he was staring at me. The distance between our faces was quite less.
Cali's POVSplash I could feel the paint run down my chest, and hear the people laughing. But I only saw one thing, Blake's grinning face. I was shocked, seeing him smile so big.
Cali's POVI was peacefully sitting in my room. Dressed for school, I had already completed the work I had left. Yesterday when I had returned, Jay fired questions at me asking about my whereabouts. When I teased him that he cares for me, his excuse was,"Mum would have killed me. And I do not plan to die before at least getting married."
Cali's POV"I-um...I need to use the washroom. Bye!" I said and ran before Blake could even reply. After the teacher had ruined the moment, I snapped out of the trance and left for my next class.He was so close to kissing me. Ugh! Blast him.Biology is a pain in the butt. Ser

A crowd have gathered in the parking lot, everyone waiting for the principal. When our principal arrived, she muttered a 'Just-in pranks week. I forgot.'She then said in a loud voice. "School has been canceled for today. You all may go back. It is an official holiday today. Ju

Easy peesy lemon squeezy.
