guys laughed.

"No!" Lola said, but her face was flushed. She scampered away and Daniel winked at me. I took a swig of my beer and tried to find Lola in the mess of people grinding against each other. Sighing, I led myself out into the huge backyard and stood on the deck, finishing the last of my beer and tossing it into the trash can. I heard footsteps and spun around, crashing into Landon. I lost my footing and started to fall when an arm wrapped around me.

Landon steadied me and stared into my eyes. "No thanks?"

"Thanks." I mumbled. I sat down on one of deck chairs and started to say, "Landon, I-"

I was stopped by his lips on mine. They were so sweet, so warm, so inviting. He pushed me against the railing of the deck and licked my bottom lip, asking for entrance. I kept my lips shut and was thankful because a second later, I saw a flash and heard cackling.

I pulled away from Landon, who was grinning. Turning around, I spotted Kathlyn with two other slutty-dressed girls. They were laughing and Kathlyn said, "Would you look at that? She's really got it hard for you, babe!"

"I think she does!" My eyes flashed back to Landon. Fuck him.

Fuck him.

I stormed past the sluts and past the people at the party, watching me. Tears were threatening to break out. I hadn't even cried in two years, and now I was about to because some guy got to me?

"Dammit!" I screamed into the front yard, kicking a garbage can. All I wanted to do was get wasted and forget this night. I grabbed a bottle of beer from a package on the top of a car and chugged it down, reaching for another when somebody's hands stopped me.

I turned around, ready to face Landon, but instead looking into Daniel's brown eyes. Lola was right behind him, a fierce look on her face.

I let go of my beer bottle and it smashed into a million pieces on the ground. I slumped against the car window, drunkingly hoping that I could just die and forget about Landon and Kathlyn and Lola and James-

James. God dammit.

"Shit! Lola!" She ran over to me, looking worried. "It's past my curfew."

"It's only 9:00..." Daniel said.

"Which is past my curfew!" I yelled as I slammed the passenger door of Lola's car.

 

 

 

I stumbled into the house, watching Lola drive off. I had told her James wouldn't be here today; that he was working late.

Lies. All lies. He stormed over to me, grabbing my arm and throwing me on the floor. He pulled out his phone and showed me an image of something very familiar.

Me and Landon. Kissing.

"Did you not understand me when I said you were mine, you stupid bitch?" He said. "YOU FUCKING SLUT! YOU NEED TO PAY!"

He dragged me upstairs, grabbing some rope and throwing me into his bedroom. He grabbed a knife and a gun, tying me to the bed. He held the gun to my forehead and pulled up my shirt.

"I'm not gonna kill you, sweetheart," he whispered into my ear. "This is called torture."

With that, he slammed his fist down on my head, and I blacked out.

Chapter 6- Landon

 Seven Days Later

 

Seven fucking days.

Seven fucking days and she still hadn't shown up yet. I hoped she was just staying home because of the public humiliation that I caused her and nothing bad had happened to her.

Lola passed me in the hallway, a grim look on her face. I grabbed her arm and pulled her to the side. She hadn't talked to me in over a week, and I was getting really annoyed. What the hell had happened to Ali?

"Where is she?" I hissed. Lola didn't meet my eyes, and I grabbed her by the front of her shirt. Was I freaking possessed? Lola's eyes turned into fireballs and she shoved me back.

"I don't want to talk to you."

"I said...WHERE IS SHE!" People around us were quiet now, watching with serious eyes. They watched as I exploded at my sister, even though it wasn't her fault Ali was gone.

It was mine.

I just had no idea what to do when Kathlyn had barged in when I had kissed her. I knew she would be the one who ruined my reputation, who made me lose interest in every other girl besides her. I couldn't let that happen.

"Let me go," said Lola, who I realised I was almost choking.

"Not until you tell me." I loosened my grip a little but kept her pushed against a wall, hoping she would finally burst and say everything.

"She told you to let her go. I think you should do that." 

That voice.

Fuck. That voice.

I turned around, releasing my grip on Lola, whose eyes widened at the person standing in front of me. Alison was standing there, looking as hot as ever wearing a loose white T-shirt and tight blue jeans, with a flannel tied around her waist, exposing her curves. The bruise on her face was gone, either covered by make-up or had faded away. Her lip was split though, and an ugly red scar ran under her eye. 

She shoved past me and kneeled down, putting a hand on my sister's shoulder. "You okay?"

"I'm fine," Lola croaked. "Where have you been?"

Ali's mouth set in a grim line and she stood up, ignoring Lola's question. Her green eyes narrowed at me. "We need to talk."

"Oh, you want to talk? About what? Where you've been this whole time?" I yelled at her. I could hear snickering behind us, and I knew it was directed at Ali. 

"Shut the fuck up! Just shut the fuck up, okay?" Her yelling was driving me mad. "I thought you would understand after calling me out as a slut who fucks boys for fun! But look at yourself! You're no better than me. So please, just get the fuck out of my life and don't ever speak to me again!"

 She ran outside, her hair flying behind her as she sprinted off. Lola stood up glaring at me, and I realised that everyone but Kathlyn and those other two bitches were angry. Daniel even looked pissed off, wrapping his arm around Lola as they walked away. I was fuming.

Running after her, I saw her slump to the ground, her face hidden in her hands. She looked up and suddenly backed away, struggling to get up. I frowned.

"Don't worry, I'm not going to hurt you." I said softly, sitting down next to her. 

"Look, Landon, we're not right for each other and we will never be friends. You just need to hang out with your own friends and pretend that I don't exist, alright. I know that-"

I shut her up by pressing my lips to hers. For one second she didn't respond, and I started to pull away when she wrapped her arms around my neck. I bit her bottom lip and she moaned, the sexiest sound I had ever heard in my life. I took that chance to slip my tongue into her mouth and played with her own, placing by hands on her thin waist. She suddenly gasped and pushed me back, trying to find the balance to stand up. 

"Are you okay?" I asked her, and she nodded breathlessly. 

As she stood up, a part of her shirt slid up and I gazed at her golden skin before turning away quickly. 

"Come on," I said, grabbing her hand and picking her up, "I'm going to take you someplace I know you'll love."

 

 

 

"The gym?" Ali snorted, as we pulled into the parking lot of the Workout Center. "You've got to be kidding me."

She was back to her regular self. She hadn't even said a word about the kiss and I decided not to push it. But feeling her body so close to mine made me want to kiss her again and rip her clothes off.

"Landon?" Her voice carried me out of my dirty thoughts. "Get your ass up."

I snorted and pulled out gym shorts from from the backseat. Ali looked at me in disgust and I added, "They're Lola's."

Tossing them to her, I walked out of the car and into the gym to be greeted by Rick. He usually skipped lunch to come over here and work out, but he would always sneak some food into fifth-period. He nodded at me before looking towards me car.

"No chick?" He asked, raising an eyebrow. Just then the backseat door opened and Ali came out, wearing a tank top and the Nike shorts I had given here. Thankfully she had on Nike shoes when we came here, because I don't know how she would be able to run in her heels or whatever.

Rick's gaze traveled to her legs as she walked towards us. I fought the urge to yell at him as he smirked at her. Ali raised an eyebrow and said, "Like what you see?"

Rick nodded, and Ali stated, "Horndog." She looked behind me and widened her eyes. "Landon, I think someone's here to see you."

I turned around to see a group of girls giggling, each of them wearing a pink sports bra and pink shorts. One girl in the middle fluffed her hair and walked over to me, wrapping one leg around my own. She tickled my chest and I laughed, placing a hand on her waist. Did she know me or something? Had I slept with her before?

I saw Ali being led away by Rick towards the Workout Station. I gritted my teeth at the sight of him holding her hand. I saw her surprised face when she saw all the machines gathered together. Rick laughed and dragged her to the stair-stepper. 

I pushed past the clingy pink girls and walked towards them. Ali stopped and stared at me as I took my shirt off and joined them. She raised an eyebrow and turned away, tying her hair up. 

"So, Ali, how does a girl like you stay so fit?" Rick asked, all while checking out her ass.

"I dance, and stop staring at my ass. Please. It makes me uncomfortable when I know somebody is checking out my butt cheeks."

I bit my lip to hold in a laugh and Rick glared at me.

"Too embarressing, huh?" Ali said. She laughed, one of the most amazing sounds I had ever heard come out of her mouth. 

I hated to admit it, but I was truly falling in love with this girl.

 

Chapter 7- Ali

I'd never thought Landon would actually care what had happened to me on the seven days I'd be gone.

It had
