Chapter 6




KENNEDY



Friday night was finally here. The night of my Halloween party. Aspen and I
had been decorating for a few hours. We managed to turn the entire upstairs
into a haunted house of sorts and the kitchen and dining room looked like a
witch's secret lair. Marta had been busy making the Hors d'oeuvre.

Aspen had dressed up as a boy version of Sailor Venus. He had on sparkly
orange shorts with a big yellow bow in the back and he'd found a vintage
sailor shirt and fixed it up to look more like hers. He looked adorable
running around putting up streamers.

"Will you help me hang this one up here, please?" Aspen asked standing on
his tip toes in the foyer.

"Sure, hold on," I said setting down the box of orange and purple strands
of lights.

I made my way over to the chair he was standing on. Because I was so much
taller than him, I could reach where he wanted almost without the chair. I
stepped up and as I did, he started to fall off. I grabbed hold of him
around the waist to steady him. Aspen had his hands on my chest and I felt
my heart start to speed up. Aspen blushed and stepped off the chair.

"Your Artemis outfit is amazing. Kira is gonna die. Look at the costume she
made that she posted on Instagram." I glanced down and took in her
selfie. She had her hair styled exactly like Human Luna in the manga and
her dress was the perfect shade of black and gold. My heart skipped a
beat. She was so beautiful.

"Wow," was all I could get out.

"You guys are going to look so cute, she'll just HAVE to talk to you. When
she does, please do us all a favor and ask her out."

I blushed, hard, "Isn't it a little soon to be asking her on dates?"

"Dude! You've literally been crushing on her for like five years! Of
course, it's not too soon!" he said before he stepped back, "A little to
the left."



Soon the house was full of people from school. Aspen and I had sent out an
invite and as soon as people saw what part of town it was in, they were
just dying to get in. I was in the kitchen, trying my best to not spill
anything on my white suit.

"Kennedy! Are you supposed to be Artemis?" Kira asked as she walked in.

"Ha yeah! Are you Luna? What a coincidence!" I chuckled nervously.

"I am! It's so cute that you and Aspen came in a couple's costume!" she
giggled. Wait. Did she think that Aspen and I were a thing?

"We aren't in a couple's costume?" I said slowly.

"Oh...well he is dressed as Sailor Venus and you are Artemis. Artemis is
Venus' cat," she picked up a red cup and took a sip.

"Oh, I guess we didn't think about that; he just went as Venus because she
is his favorite scout," I said as I shrugged.

"So you two aren't dating?" she asked.

"No! Not that it would be a bad thing- he's not the worst choice- but I'm
not gay. Ha I like you- God did I just say that out loud?" I face
palmed. What an idiot.

"You like...me?" she looked at me through her long lashes.

"Yeah, sorry, I was gonna try to be way more smooth when I asked you out,"
I stuffed my hands in my pockets and looked down at the floor, the long
silver hair of my wig falling around my eyes.

"You're gonna ask me out?"

"I am if you'd consider it," I said sheepishly.

"Yeah, I think that would be fun," she said. Ugh, she was so cool. How was
I getting so lucky in this moment?



ASPEN



I peeked from the doorway of the kitchen,smiling from ear to ear. It looked
like things were going well for Kennedy. I wanted him to be happy and it
was awesome that he was finally talking to the girl he liked. Though, I
couldn't understand the small tinge of...jealousy?..I was feeling. I
brushed it off.

"Orange is a great color on you," I heard from behind me. I turned and saw
Leon standing before me dressed as Minako Aino. He had on a long blonde wig
half tied up with a red bow. He had on a pretty accurate looking Juban
Middle School girl's uniform. I burst out laughing, when I looked back up
he was wearing a relieved smile.

"What the heck, Leon?" I asked through laughter.

"I'm sorry, you're right, I don't get a say over what you wear. I want you
to feel good in what you wear and I don't want you to dress for me. Can you
forgive me?" he asked. His hand reached out and grabbed mine.

"Leon-" I started but I was cut off by his lips on mine. They were so soft
and gentle and warm. I wrapped my arms around his neck and pulled him
closer. Gods how I'd missed his kiss. The flavor of cherry chap stick stuck
to my lips and blended with the flavor of my sugar cookie lip balm.

When he finally pulled back, it was hard to stop kissing him.

"So is that a yes?" he asked.

"Promise me you'll stop trying to be my owner and start being my
boyfriend," I said firmly.

"I promise. Can we go be alone somewhere? I missed you a lot this last
week," he admitted.

"Well...no...I mean, I'm co-hosting the party, so I can't necessarily
leave..." I explained.

"Oh, I understand. I just figured that I won't get much time to be with you
alone tomorrow at your Samhain celebration. That is...if I'm still
invited," he said hopefully.

"Of course you are. Kennedy will be there too," I said, worried that it
would upset him. He surprised me, however, and put on a smile.

"That will a fun time. I just really want to show you just how much I
missed you," Leon said into my ear before he gently bit my earlobe. He knew
that always got me going.

"And I want to return the favor, but I'm busy. Maybe if you're still up for
it later," I said with a grin. I turned and went back into the
kitchen. Kennedy and Kira had moved to the table. He glanced up and smiled
at me as I poured myself some punch.

I guzzled down the first cup and poured another. I began making rounds to
make sure that everyone was having a good time. Bodies were grinding
against one another in the living room. Talking was mostly being done in
the foyer. I had to stop a couple of horny classmates from going into one
of the guest rooms.

As I finished the second glass of punch I noticed I was feeling
different. I was starting to get a little dizzy and I felt unbalanced. I
got to the kitchen and grasped a counter to hold myself up. I giggled to
myself.

I looked over and saw Kira put her hand on Kennedy's arm as she laughed. I
smiled like an idiot and went to get more punch. I had just pured it, but
my arms felt all warm and gooey and I couldn't lift the cup to my
lips. Kennedy was watching me now. I almost spilled and that's when he got
up to find out what was going on.



KENNEDY


"You okay?" I asked Aspen as I watched him attempt to get from behind the
counter. He looked like he was three sheets to the wind. I grabbed his cup
before he could spill it and took a whiff.

"I'm f...fine," he giggled, slurring a bit.

"Have you ever had an alcoholic drink before? Did you know you got the
spiked punch?"

"I'm drunk?" he laughed.

I glanced at Kira, she was giggling behind her hand.

"I don't feel good..." he said slowly.

"C'mon, let's get you to the bathroom," I was a little tipsy from the
alcohol I'd been consuming through the night, but I knew how to handle
myself while I was drunk. I wrapped my arm around his waist and walked him
to the bathroom and before I could shut the door, he was on his hands and
knees in front of the toilet, hurling.

I closed the door and rushed to his aid. I pulled his hair away from his
face and held it while he threw up the bright red drink. He heaved and I
rubbed his back the way my mom used to when I was little. He smiled over
his shoulder and for a minute I was stone cold sober. His blue eyes met
mine and I could feel my face get hot.

"Thank you, I feel much better now," Aspen said as he sat back on his
heels. Now he was just inches away from my face and my heart was beating
fast. Why? Why was I so flustered by him? He was practically glowing. Ha,
barfing did wonders for him. He giggled a little and stood up.

"Do you have a spare toothbrush?" he asked.

"I only have mine," I replied.

"Can I use it?"

Normally, the thought of someone using my toothbrush would disgust me. In
this particular case, I didn't mind. I handed him my toothbrush and
smiled. My heart was feeling something and I wasn't sure what it was, but I
knew it was making me a little uncomfortable, so I decided to leave.

"I'll be downstairs with Kira," I said quickly. I turned on my heel and
bolted after he nodded.



ASPEN


A few hours later, the last couple of guests were heading out into the
early morning chill. Leon went to his house to change and grab something he
wanted to show me. Kennedy and I were the only ones left.

"So you and Leon are all cool now?" Kennedy asked as he swiped a few more
empty cups into the huge black bag he was carrying. He had taken off his
costume and was wearing shorts and a t-shirt now. He'd given me a shirt to
borrow so I didn't get anything on my outfit while I cleaned. It was like a
dress on me. He was so broad and I was certainly not.

"Yeah, I think he really understood what he was missing and he decided to
shape up," I replied, tying up the third full trash bag of the night.

"Can I be honest?" he asked. I noticed out of the corner of my eye that
he'd stopped moving and was looking in my direction. I decided to just keep
picking up garbage. I sang along in my head to the song that was
playing. Banshee by Kendra Morris, if you were wondering.


"Of course, Kennedy," I replied as I pushed more paper plates and plastic
cups into a new bag.

"He doesn't deserve you. At all. You need a man and Leon is just a stupid
boy. He doesn't love you the way you deserve," he said. I could hear a bit
of jealousy in his voice and it made my heart race.

"You don't know him," I said frankly, I looked up at his dark green eyes.

"I don't need to know him to know that he's all wrong for you."

"If I didn't know any better, I'd say you were jealous," I chuckled. He
didn't look away, he just kept his eyes locked on mine.

"Jealous?" he moved forward, "Why would I be jealous of that insufferable
windbag?"

"I...I don't...know," I said softly as he got closer.

"I'm not jealous," he told me. He was mere inches from me now. His cologne
caught my nose and my knees went weak.

"Okay," I said with a shrug, casting my eyes down at my hands.

"Okay?" his warm breath was on my cheeks now, "You don't sound like you
believe me."

"What if I don't?" I looked up. My eyes met his again and his were almost
sparkling.

"What's that smell?" he blurted suddenly.

"Smell?" I inhaled. There was definitely a scent just under the comforting
smell of his cologne. It smelled almost skunky. He hunched down and looked
under the table. When he stood back up, he was holding a little baggie with
some little green nuggets in it. I'd been on Facebook enough and had enough
stoner friends to know that he was holding marijuana. ญญญ

"Looks like someone dropped their goods," he chuckled.

"Looks like!"

"Wanna smoke it?" Kennedy asked. He looked dead serious. I had never drunk
alcohol before tonight, let alone considered doing drugs.

"Right now? Leon is coming back to get me in a little bit, and after that
scene earlier..." I said slowly.

"Oh, right. It's cool. I just thought it could make cleaning this mess up a
little more fun," he shrugged.

"Let me tell Leon to just meet up with me for lunch or something," I said
quickly. I wasn't ready to stop hanging out with Kennedy, besides, it
wasn't fair to make him clean up the entire mess all by himself.

"So you do wanna smoke it?" he asked excitedly.

"I've never done it before so you better not be a jerk to me if I mess up,"
I said, pulling out my phone and dialing Leon's number.

"Sweet! I'll roll us a joint! I think I have still have some papers from my
stoner days," he laughed and bounded off toward his room. I pressed the
send call button and held my phone tightly to my ear.

"Hey! I just got done getting dressed, you ready?" Leon asked
enthusiastically as he answered the phone.

"About that..." I said reluctantly.

"What's up?" I heard the excitement fade from his voice.

"Well, Kennedy's place is a wreck and I'm gonna stay and help him
clean. Can we do lunch tomorrow?" I was nervously biting my thumbnail as I
told him.

"I really want a moment to talk about us. I waited all night for this," he
whined.

"Then you can wait a few more hours until lunch, right?"

"Sure," he replied. I could tell he was disappointed. I felt bad, but I was
needed here. Besides, I wondered about that intense moment when Kennedy was
so close, I could feel his breath. I wanted to see what the night would
hold for me.

"I love you," he said softly on the other end.

"Same, Leon, goodnight," I said quickly and hung up the phone. I stuffed it
into my back pocket and leaned against the counter.

"Oh yeah, baby! This rolled into a nice fat joint!" Kennedy exclaimed,
coming back into the kitchen.

"Light `er up!" I said. I didn't have to ask him twice. We sat down on a
little love seat against the wall in the foyer. He took a couple of puffs
and inhaled deeply. A smile came across his handsome face as his eyes
rolled back and smoke came billowing out his nostrils. He passed it to me
and I looked at him anxiously.

"Just put it in your mouth, suck in and then take a deep breath," he
chuckled. I did as I was told and I immediately started coughing.

"Ugh...ick...that was terrible!" I said, handing him the joint.

"You just didn't do it right," he said with a grin.

"I don't think I can," I sighed.

"Well I can shotgun it to you," he shrugged.

"What?" I raised my brow at him.

"I take the puffs and I exhale it while you get close and inhale it," he
said as he leaned back against the sofa.

"I guess we could try," I said with a nervous laugh.

"Cool," he inhaled again and got close to me. I leaned in and he blew the
smoke right at my mouth. I sucked in what I could and exhaled too. My mind
started to get fuzzy and the music in the background was starting to sound
so much better.

"One more hit?" he asked before inhaling deeply. I nodded and brought my
face close to his. He exhaled slowly and the smoke started to rise up so I
took a deep breath through my nostrils. His eyes were locked on mine,
glossy and red as Satan's toenails. He blew the rest out in a thin stream
right at my mouth and his warm breath mixed with the smoke made me dizzy.

"Are we going to kiss?" I blurted suddenly. I felt like my filter had
turned completely off. Why would I ask such a question? He was straight,
that was so rude of me.

"Do you want to?" Kennedy whispered. It was such a low and sexy voice, I
almost didn't think it was real.

"Do you?" I asked back.
