Hour 1
Right after we got here, we got a couple of drinks. How'd they get beer in here is a question I will keep asking myself, but props to the person that got the beer without the teachers or the dorm supervisor knowing. Back to topic, we got a couple of drinks and the girls, and I went to dance. Now we're just sitting around talking and drinking.
"Who's up for some beer pong." I raise my hand. "Do you know how to play?" the random guy asked me, and I shake my head.
"No."
"Great... you're on the opposite team." he seems annoyed that I don't know how to play.
"Okay."
"Okay princess the rules are easy. Each team takes turn throwing the ball into the other team's cups." He explains while doing an example. "Once the ball lands in a cup, the cup is taken away and the opponent then drinks the contents of the cup. If both teammates hit cups, the balls are rolled back and they get to shoot again."
"Seems easy enough."
"Okay then let's begin." He makes the first shot and I drink the contents inside.
"Is it my turn?" he nods and mumbles something to his teammate. 'Bambi is so gonna lose.' I grab the ping pong ball and throw it but it doesn't make it inside the cup.
"It's okay, maybe you'll get it in next time." I nod and smile. He throws the ball again and it falls in. "It's your turn again." He says and I grab the ball, throw it and this time it does go in. He drinks the beer, and he goes again, but doesn't make it. Now it's my time and it goes in again. Looks like its my time to shine.
"Wow, now I understand why they used to call me the 'Pong Queen' back at home." When I was a sophomore, I was invited to a senior part. They didn't know that I knew how to play so I played dumb like I'm doing now, and I kicked their asses. It was really fun, and in that moment, they knew to never mess with the Pong Queen.
"You're actually good at beer pong" random beer pong guy says with a surprised look on his face. I would be shocked too if I were him. Never judge a book by its cover.
"Yes, I am. If partying were a class, I'd have an A+."
"You played me." He seems so shocked, it's actually pretty funny to witness.
"Not my fault you can't see through a lie. Now, can we play?" I said. He keeps talking instead of playing. Is he afraid to lose to a girl? Cause he's about to.
"Yeah, I'm going to beat you." He better hold on to that confidence cause it's not gonna last long. I never lose at beer pong. Never.
"Good luck." I said truthfully. He's going to need it.
We spent the next 20 minutes playing, and now we're both down to our final cup. Apparently, he was the me of Fredrickson Hall, so the game was tough.
"Hey babe, what are you doing?" May asked.
"Beating his ass at beer pong." I say in a calm voice and then look at random beer pong guy. "Where's Liz?"
"She's talking with Lucas. They were talking about Star Wars, and I got bored, so I came to find you."
"Oh really, with Lucas you say?" just as I finish saying this random beer pong guy threw the ball and didn't make it.
"Yes, why?" May asks, and I grab the ball, ready to win.
"Because my first day here I caught him staring at her when we were at our lockers." I say while throwing the ball. I smile after it went in.
"Really... you don't say."
"Oh yes. Give me a minute." I look at the guy I was playing with. "Hey, good game, you're really good. Rematch some other time?" I won. Pong Queen remains undefeated.
"For sure." Random beer pong guy stays at the table while May and I start walking away. I really should learn his name.
"Okay, back to what you were saying."
"Oh yeah, I have also seen her watching him from afar." May says and I can't believe it. I thought it was a one-sided love where Lucas liked Liz, but from what May just told me, Liz might like him too.
"Aww want to play matchmaker?" I say excitedly. They would make such a cute couple!
"Of course." She smiles wickedly at me. This is going to be fun.
...
Hour 2
May and I spied on them for 10 minutes before they saw us. It was hysterical. We looked like cartoon characters. I'm starting to get bored, so I went out to grab some air. You never know how sticky the air is until you go out to grab some air. I went to the stairs and sat down. I may be a bit drunk.
"Hey." I look up to see Chase.
"Hey." He says "What'cha doing out here?" he tilts his head sideways and looks at me.
"I needed some air. And I may be a bit drunk." It's nice out here. It's quiet and away from all the noise.
"Yeah?" he says, and I nod. I'm surprised we aren't fighting yet.
"Yeah, I was playing beer pong earlier and won, but I drank most of my cups. The guy I was playing with was really good."
"Wait that was you? I heard that someone had beat Derek at beer pong, but I didn't really believe it since nobody ever wins against him." Chase says. Oh, so that's his name? Derek. It reminds me of McDreamy from Grey's Anatomy, so I definitely won't forget his name now.
"Yeah, he's basically the me of Henderson. Back home they used to call me Pong Queen."
"Really?" he chuckles at my comment.
"Yeah, not to brag or anything, but I'm the best." I smile proudly at him, and he laughs again.
"And you didn't want to come."
"I didn't because I fell in a bad place once I started partying." I never should've started partying, but it was the only thing that helped after the loss of my dad.
"What happened?"
"I was sad because my favorite person on this earth died, so I turned to partying. Those were really dark times for me, I drank too much, used drugs, started out too late, vandalized school property. I wasnt at my best."
"I'm sorry." He offers me a sad smile and a pitiful look. If I got a penny for each time that someone looks at me like that, I'd be a millionaire.
"Stop looking at me like that."
"Like what?"
"Like I'm broken. Like if you say the wrong thing, I'll break. Like the way people back home look at me." I'm not broken. I just miss my dad.
"Sorry." He looks at me and I feel like I'm going to cry.
"It's fine, just don't do it, please."
"Okay." And with that said I stand up and walk away.
...
Hour 3
After a couple more drinks, I'm officially drunk. We're currently playing truth or dare. A high school cliché, I know. But at least the dares are good. Yay. Note the sarcasm.
"Landon, truth or dare?" some random guy says.
"Truth."
"What's the worst thing you've done this week?" Come on, that's not an interesting question.
"I handed Astrid some pot cookies and told her that it was from Mr. Waters." Hold on, maybe it wasn't so bad after all.
"Grey, truth or dare." Landon says
"Dare." This one better be good.
"Leave an R-rated voicemail to an ex." I definitely didn't expect that. Grey did his dare and looked at Max as a way of telling him something. Very subtle.
"Maddie. truth or dare?" Max says. Of course, they picked me.
"Dare."
"Try out for the soccer team." I rolled my eyes. These people don't know what a fucking dare is.
"I'll do it, but that was a lame ass dare." In that moment, Mother Fucker entered the game. I should really get his name.
"Oh yeah?" mother fucker says, and I roll my eyes. I really don't want to put up with him again.
"Totally." I stare at him wishing for him to just go away, but of course, he doesn't.
"Truth or Dare Baby Doll?" I gag internally. I hate that little nickname. It gives me creepy guy from the supermarket vibes. 'Hey there baby doll, would you pass me the buns?' blegh.
"Dare." I'm not afraid of a little dare. Especially not one from him.
"I dare you to go skinny dipping in the schools pool." Now that's a dare. I give him a smile and get up.
...
Hour 4
I was now in front of the pool with quite the audience. I still had my clothes on, but I don't trust any of these assholes enough for them to guard my clothes, so I dragged May and Lizzie with me so they could hold my clothes until I got out the pool. I start to take off my clothes with my back facing them. I hand my clothes to the girls, and I jump in. I swim a few laps and resurface.
"What other dares do you have up your sleeve?" I smirk at Tyler. I learned that his name is Tyler Davidson a couple minutes ago.
"Nothing else for tonight." He mirrors my smirk. "Until next time, Baby Doll."
The girls hand me my clothes and I quickly get dressed. We start to leave the school pool and almost get caught. We said our goodbyes and we went our different ways for the rest of the night.
When they left some bitches threatened me to stay away from Chase. I ignored them and went back to my dorm deciding to call it a night. The people here are crazy.
...
Next day
"Close the fucking blinds. Now." I groan. I feel like death.
Right after my skinny-dipping adventures yesterday, I crashed onto my bed. Now, you can guess what's happening. My amazing roommate brought me some Tylenol for my headache and some water for my thirst. Who knew he was such a good roommate? No one because that's not what he did. It's the exact opposite actually. He opened the blinds and the window, so now I'm freezing my ass off. Where the fuck is my blanket?!
"Mm, isn't it a beautiful day."
"Close the window and the blinds, Chase."
"Nope." He says popping the 'p'
"I hate you."
"Aww, you truly touch my heart with those kind words."
"I'm happy I do. Now close the fucking window and blinds."
"You have two feet Madelyn; you can close them while I go and enjoy my shower."
"You suck."
"And you swallow. Have a good day. Now bye, bye."
"When I get over this hangover, I'm going to kill you."
"You would miss me too much."
"Doubt it." Just as I finish saying this I hear the door close. I guess I'm starting my day early today.
