Elodie May DeLoughrey

Short giggle escaped her lips the moment she saw his reaction to who her date was, right before she nodded, rather proudly. “Yes, yes.” She was quick to reply and confirm it, once again. “I will tell you and then you might be the only one that knows all about it,” with a cheeky smile she added, at this moment not really caring about what happened - what caused her to be here with Jordan. She was feeling excited about winning that nothing else mattered, looking like a loser and a desperate girl trying to find a date didn’t matter. No one knew about it, not even her good friend that was here with someone Elodie wanted to have as a date. It was behind her but not for long.

To his maybe Elodie simply shook her head, sad to see he didn’t share her opinion but she didn’t say anything. She didn’t say anything because that’s how she felt when he said Jordan was the lucky one. “That makes me so happy,” listening to him talking, she quietly said it more to herself but loud enough for him to hear. If there was something Elodie enjoyed more than anything it was romance. She would even consider herself to be a hopeless romantic, wanting the old school kind of love. So seeing her friend happy, just like she saw Mikel happy earlier only melted her heart. “Well, Mikel is throwing a party now so I better see you there,” she said in threatening way, slightly furrowing her brows but quickly put on another bright smile. "So we can tell each other our crazy stories, ok?” She quickly added as the song they were dancing to came to an end, genuinely hoping to see him there with Gio.

With that, she gently let go if him and took a step back, jokingly bowing. “And thank you. It was my pleasure dancing with you,” she added with a sweet smile on her lips but quickly stepped back towards him and pulled him into a tight hug. “I’ll go get Jordan now but I hope to see you later,” she said before walking away from him and heading towards the stage.

Parties weren’t really Elodie’s thing but there was only one prom that mattered and she didn’t want to waste any second of it. If everyone was going to the party there was no doubt she would be there too. Especially now when she was feeling beyond excited. "Jordan,” she whispered/yelled as she got on the stage rushing to sit next to him on the little piano stool. She didn’t even care if she was interrupting him, if he was even supposed to play more songs now, all she wanted to do is go there as soon as possible. “Let’s go, Mikel is throwing a party, please tell me you want to go,” she said, giving him puppy eyes.

Daniel found himself settling into the corner, completely removing his tie from his neck, with his suit jacket soon following and being thrown to the side. It was already getting slightly stuffy in the elevator, Dan was just glad it wasn’t too hot or cold as he folded his shirt sleeves up, soon laying down on the floor - using his jacket as a pillow.

“Why do we even hate each other… I mean other than you kinda being a d!ck?”

At the question, Daniel looked at her up from his lying position… squinting his eyes ever so slightly as if it would help him remember. The problem - he couldn’t. Daniel Parker didn’t know if it was his tipsy state or what, but he actually couldn’t remember what started Val and Daniel’s long stemming feud. A hatred that lasted for years… and Daniel Parker couldn’t bloody remember why. Fck. “Well, you remember…” Daniel started, scratching his head… "It was that one thing… that one time… when you did that thing… and I was there… and… you were doing it… yeah… you really fcked up…" Dan continued, attempting to locate any recollection of what happened. “Sh!t…” Daniel mumbled, leaning back up as he realized he actually couldn’t remember. “Fvck… you did something. I swear you did…” Dan started attempting to think… why the hell was his near-perfect recall failing him now. “You know what f*ck it, thinking is making my head hurt… all I know was you started it. I actually quite liked you until you did… whatever it was you did,” Dan stated, taking a drink of the alcohol as she said that. Hell… he’d have to go figure out what that was when he was more sober.

Though what really raised Dan’s interest was when she said she didn’t want a favor. It had been a long time since anyone turned Daniel down on a favor… well… ever since Yara. Perhaps that’s why he fell for her years ago. One of the only people he knew that didn’t use him. Once upon a time, he thought the same thing about Jezebel - though apparently she had used him during their whole friendship, and Dan had never known until recently. So… cheers to that. Daniel thought, taking another drink of the Vodka. “Door’s always open on the favor,” Daniel mumbled, laying back down as he watched Valerie Wood pace around the small space, the dim red light barely illuminating her features.

“Why do you even know so much about Mikel’s elevator… that’s a bit creepy,”

Another laugh left Dan’s lips as he closed his eyes. “I don’t know if you know this, but I’m a certified genius, Valerie. Which means I know practically everything,” Daniel stated, though, after a few seconds, he opened one of his eyes to find her giving him a deadpanned look of annoyance - one he was used to over the years, “Also, the name of the operating system is right there and I’ve grown up in a family of technology experts,” Daniel mumbled - pointing to the elevator controls with a joking smile.

Though he listened to her next statement involving strange sexual locations, Daniel didn’t say anything. After all, who was Dan to judge? He had more than one his own sexual exploits in strange locations so he truly couldn’t - and he had always hated that men and woman were treated differently in society. For one, he’d been in the mile high club more than once… though not as fun as one would imagine. Though Dan’s family’s private plane did have a nice bed area - so it was far more fun than stuffing one’s self in a tiny bathroom to do the deed. Though he raised his eyebrow when the girl asked about the alcohol next to him, still more than half full.

“How about we play a game? Twenty questions? Drink for whoever has the most interesting answer?” Daniel questioned. It was better than just laying there for however long they had to stay. Perhaps minutes, more than likely, however, it was hours.

"Well, you remember… It was that one thing… that one time… when you did that thing… and I was there… and… you were doing it… yeah… you really fcked up…"*
She looked at him with furrowed brows and a confused look on her face ”Never in my life I heard you say something that made less sense than that” she said and let out a small snorted chuckle shaking her head.
“You know what fck it, thinking is making my head hurt… all I know was you started it. I actually quite liked you until you did… whatever it was you did,”
”Ah yes, of course” she said ”I remember yeah it was the thing that I did when we were at the place and i did that thing and you were there, sad story innit” she added with a smirk, as much as she was in a terrible mood and told herself she needed a distraction, never in a million year she thought being stuck with Daniel Parker in an elevator would be the distraction she needed.

“Door’s always open on the favor,”
”I’ll keep that in mind” she said, even though she was pretty sure she wasn’t going to take that offer at any point.

“I don’t know if you know this, but I’m a certified genius, Valerie. Which means I know practically everything,”
”So why on earth are you still in high school-“ she asked
“Also, the name of the operating system is right there and I’ve grown up in a family of technology experts,”
She looked over at the controls he pointed at and rolled her eyes at him with a light head shake ”Fair” she added shortly, not saying much in response

“How about we play a game? Twenty questions? Drink for whoever has the most interesting answer?”
”A game?” she raised her brow intrigued, she did like games and by what it seemed they had quite an amount of time to burn before they’d find their way out of this small empty room.
”Count me in” she smirked and tried thinking of a question ”you go first” she gestured at his with her head

“Never in my life have I heard you say something that made less sense than that”

The man chuckled as he watched her from his spot on the floor, leaning so his head was propped up by his elbow, looking at her from the side. “I think I might be a littleeee tipsy” Daniel mumbled with a smile. “So we threw sense out of this elevator the minute I stepped in,” he mumbled, frowning slightly when he remembered why he came into the elevator in the first place. Though it disappeared once again as Val started talking once again - explaining what their feud was about. Though it seemed as if she remembered as little as he did.

“Absolutely depressing. Such a bright future friendship spoiled by that one thing you did that time,” Daniel laughed. “Or maybe I did it, who knows,” Daniel mumbled, as he raised his eyebrow at the ‘high school,’ question. “I was admitted to Harvard and MIT when I was 8. I turned them down because I realized an 8-year-old in Harvard was just asking to get sh!tted on. Plus I had people here I cared about here,” Daniel revealed, remembering the moment he got his acceptance - a little Jessica attempting to figure out what the letter had said as she had lived with him at that point… only a few years after the worst moment in his life. Though he ended up burning the letters, not even telling his parents about his acceptance.

Placing the vodka in between them, Daniel raised his eyebrow. “But first… everything said in this room stays between us… deal?” Daniel questioned, looking at her with his eyebrow raised. In retrospect, they would probably both get too wasted to even remember the night. Though in case, it had to be said. “Let’s start easy. Worst sex you’ve had with a senior at Cerulean High? Is it Steve the captain of the Football team? He likes big talk but I swear he’s vanilla as all sh!t?” Daniel questioned, “Mine was Emily Mackenzie. I swear don’t ever sleep with someone with two first names. Completely awful. She screams like a banshee and tied me up with laces. F*cking laces. Like the ones that tie your shoes. She then proceeded to purr as I tried to sleep. Yes purr. Like a cat. Not a quiet cat. No it wasn’t cute… she also wouldn’t leave and ended up having breakfast with my Dad and I and told him that we had been dating,” Daniel stated, shivering at the memory before raising his eyebrow as he awaited her response.

Jordan grinned, despite everything that had happened with Jezebel moments earlier, Jordan had learned the art of being in the moment, and right now all he could see was how radiant Elodie May DeLoughrey looked dancing with Luciano. Jordan Williams couldn’t be happier for the girl he saw as one of his best friends. All he wanted to do was hug her, though he was currently singing a song for her so he was hoping it made up for it. As the song came to an end, him playing the final notes on the piano, Jordan begin smiling brighter then he had before as he found Elodie sitting next to him. “Hello my beautiful queen,” Jordan gushed, giving her a bear hug as his fingers left the the keys. “I didn’t think you could look any better, but Elodie, that crown doesn’t do you justice,” he smiled at the girl. Though the words were soon followed with “Ohhhhs” from his bandmates, causing Jordan to raise his eyebrows at them.

“Elodie, this is Tom, my drummer, Hailey my bass guitarist, and Abby and Ricker, my dancers. They’ve all been dying to meet you because apparently, I talk about you all the time,” Jordan smiled as one of the girls ran up to give her a hug from the back. “They’re also very touchy-feely, so sorry about that,” Jordan laughed and Tom raised his eyebrows in a suggestive motion. “Tom stop, we’re just really good friends,” Jordan laughed to which Ricker almost immediately asked if she was single.

“Nope,” Jordan smiled, “I’m going to steal you away now,” Jordan told Elodie as he brought her backstage, away from those vultures as Elo asked about some party… well not just any party. A party that was thrown by Mikel… the man he had seen less than an hour ago cursing at him…

“El I don’t… know if that’s a good idea,” he whispered, though he found himself falling into her puppy eyes. He could really never say no to those… plus this was Elodie and he couldn’t really ever say no to her. “Alright, fine,” Jordan laughed, “But you still owe me more dances there,” he smiled as he told his band to pack up for the night - following the girl back outside to the limo where it seemed the weather was only growing worse.

“Hey El…” Jordan mumbled in the limo as he laid his head on her lap in a playful fashion as the driver took them to Mikel’s house. “I probably shouldn’t ask… but Jezebel and Mikel?” Jordan mumbled. He knew he didn’t have to ask a question because she probably already knew what he was wondering.

Lyonrad fell over and kissed Daniel. Yes. He did. All in a matter of seconds, Now she was watching them fist bump instead of fighting, All Kara could do was watch with her mouth open. “What the h#ll.” She thought to herself. Now Daniel was angry talking about Jessica and he walked away in a huff. It honestly came as a surprise to her that her and Lyonrad had a thing. Maybe she really didn’t know anything about Jessica. Suddenly she burst into laughter. “What just happened? I should have gotten that on camera, well, hopefully someone did.” She continued to laugh but she noticed how angry Lyonrad looked. “You two must really hate each other.”

Ruby fell off the couch in surprise when the lights went out. “Ow! F*ck!” She yelped. She picked herself off the floor, sitting back down on the couch. She pulled out her lighter for light, taking some cigarettes out of her pocket. Mikel already offered her one, so she knew it was ok to smoke. She flicked on the lighter, entranced by the flickering flame casting shadows across her face in the darkness. She lit the cigarette, inhaling and exhaling a cloud of smoke, leaning into the couch.

“I just didn’t want your camera getting broken.” She said quietly when he asked her not to touch his stuff. Jezebel couldn’t bring herself to look at Mikel as he spoke. He could go find any gorgeous girl at that party and kiss her, sleep with her, anything. Jezebel would feel like she deserved it. No matter how drawn she was to Jordan, she still didn’t have a right to do that to Mikel. “We didn’t.” Was all she said. They hadn’t done anything more than what Mikel had seen, but Jezebel couldn’t necessarily deny the thought that if Mikel hadn’t shown up when he had, that it couldn’t have become more. That was the worst part, it easily could have been even worse of what she had done. “He didn’t.” Jezebel answered. She looked at him, clear tears in her eyes. Whether it was the guilt, her own mixed up feelings, or his words, she didn’t know. She honestly didn’t have any idea what to say, so she stayed quiet in response to most of what he said. “I care about you Mikel. I really do. That’s why I’m here, now.” If she didn’t care about Mikel, everything would have been so much easier, but she cared about him and she cared about Jordan. That made things complicated. “I never lied to you… but you still deserve better…” she said under her breath.

She said she didn’t want his camera to get broken but I guess she was okay with breaking his heart. “Think that’s what I care about right now?” He questioned her as he grips tightened on the bedsheet. He did appreciate her caring about his things but it wasn’t enough right now. "We didn’t.” He was happy to hear this but wasn’t fully sold on it. His trust had been broken one too many times and he knew body language spoke louder than verbal. “Okay, Jezebel,” Mikel said simply as he stood onto his feet. His head spun as he did and it took him a few seconds to regain composure. He walked over to the door and gripped the handle, twisting on it but nothing happening. “What the hell.” He mumbled and tried a little harder. “Were stuck in here.” He shook his head and leaned on the back of the door. “I care about you, Mikel. I really do. That’s why I’m here, now.” He scoffed and rubbed his face. “How the hell do you expect me to believe you?” He questioned her and felt his voice break a little when he looked at her. She wouldn’t look back at him though. “I never lied to you" He rolled his eyes and walked across the room to grab the bottle sitting on the floor. His fingers tightening on the neck of it as he looked down at the rim.

So many memories of his were all centered around bottles and substances. He was the newest version of the old him at this moment. His thoughts were racing. He knew he shouldn’t be drinking but what else did he have left for him anymore. “I could be down there right now,” He pointed with the bottle in his hand to the door, signaling to the party. “I could have my tongue down another girls throat, how would that make you feel?” He chuckled to himself before kissing the bottle and closing his eyes. He walked back into the bathroom, he could still see her though since it was connected to his room. He set the bottle on the corner of the counter. Mikel looked at the broken mirror and bottle on the floor, he had broken many things tonight already. He stepped over it and kicked off his shoes, unzipping his skinny jeans, and pulled them off his legs. He pulled the shirt and button up over his head, setting his glasses down next to the bottle also. “I need to shower.” He told her with a smug look and licked his lips as he looked at her, his eyes a little less glazed over now as he looked her up and down instinctively.

‘How the hell do you expect me to believe you?’
Those words broke the part of Jezebel that was still holding herself together. “I can’t… I can’t expect you to trust me.” She nodded slightly, looking down with tears rolling down her cheeks. “You could, and I’d deserve it.” The thought hurt, but Jezebel felt like she deserved it if Mikel did go into that party and make out with each girl there. All she had ever known was being responsible for screwing everything up. Everything always fell apart because of her somehow. Just when things were going alright, she screwed up once again. She watched as Mikel walked into the bathroom and stood up from where she had been sitting. She paused by the door to his room, to see for herself that there was nowhere to go, then walked to the bathroom herself, pausing against the doorway. She glanced down at the shards of the mirror and broken bottle, then at Mikel as he was getting undressed. If she knew what to say, she would say it. She didn’t want to lose him, she knew she really cared about him, even if she had so many conflicting feelings. Whatever he needed her to tell him so he knew she cared, she would. “Just… tell me what you want.” She spoke quietly, ready for anything he said. She would explain anything he wanted, she would do whatever he needed her to do after what she did, even if he wanted her out of his life.

@Madilfill

Madilfill · 27 October 2020 05:30

“You could, and I’d deserve it.” “You are right, if this door wasn’t locked I could go and do whatever or whoever I wanted. But I am here talking to you right?” Mikel said roughly to her. He wouldn’t have came up here to talk to her if that is what he wanted. “And you don’t deserve that, no one does.” He noticed her tears and hit the wall next to him with his fist, not hard enough to dent it or break the dry wall but enough to make a bang. He didn’t mean to make her cry. That was not his intentions at all when he said what he said. He just was angry and was stating a fact. Though at the moment he couldn’t even think of another girl the way he thought about Jezebel. “Fvck.” He said under his breath. ”Just… tell me what you want.” Mikel shrugged at her words. He didn’t know. He was confused as to what the right thing to do was. He really had strong feelings for her, more than he had for anyone ever. Even himself but trust had been broken and he hated cheaters. His parents fell guilty to this all too often and they just pretended like everything was perfect. Was he going to be like them? The bathroom was starting to steam up from the hot water running. He stuck his hand out for her. “Please don’t cry.” He begged in a calm tone. His head was still spinning slightly as he stood there looking at her. Tomorrow he knew it would be worse but he didn’t care. He felt a little exposed as he stood there in front of her in just his boxers but he wasn’t embarrassed by any means.

“I think I might be a littleeee tipsy. So we threw sense out of this elevator the minute I stepped in,”
She let out a subtle breath of a laugh ”Welcome to the club. Sober sense is not allowed” She said with a light smirk, as she raised her legs in a way she could lean her arms on her knees as she sat against the wall.

*“Absolutely depressing. Such a bright future friendship spoiled by that one thing you did that time,” Daniel laughed. “Or maybe I did it, who knows,”
She laughed lightly at his comment on the bright futured friendship. Thinking about it, this was probably the longest conversation she and Daniel ever had, and the thing that surprised her the most was that it was actually good, never in her life she thought she’d enjoy being stuck with Daniel Parker in one place. ”What a shame” she shook her head slowly

She listened to him as he explained about MIT and Harvard, that was insanely impressive for an 8 year old. She knew Daniel was smart but that was like damn Daniel. ”That’s crazy wow” she said pleasantly surprised with his answer. ”So are you gonna go there after high school is through?” she asked and opened the strap of her heels taking them off and putting them aside, if she was going to sit here for a while might as well let her feet rest.

“But first… everything said in this room stays between us… deal?”
”Deal” she said with a single nod and crossed her legs on the floor ”What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas” she added
“Let’s start easy. Worst sex you’ve had with a senior at Cerulean High? Is it Steve the captain of the Football team? He likes big talk but I swear he’s vanilla as all sh!t?” Daniel asked ”Oh god no I never slept with Steve he’s so cringe worthy.” she said making a bit of a face ”But-“ she started and pointed her finger in a but ”His friend Brian, the tall ginger one with the nose ring. Total disaster. One time I ended up at his place after a party, not to mention his room had a shrine dedicated to the beast in beauty and the beast, but he also tried living up to it. His dirty talk was all beauty and the beast related he would be like ‘Heard you like a man in the street and a beast in the sheets’ and sh!t. He stopped in the middle so he could stare into my eyes. no joke, when he wasn’t beastly growling he just stopped and looked in my eyes after he decided we were soul mates and I’m his princess” she told him the story and started laughing ”Not to mention I haven’t been able to watch that movie again since” she added shaking her head in ew and went on listening to him tell about Emily Mackenzie ”Oh god” she replied to his story ”Thats just, no.” she added
”Okay okay” she said after thinking of a question ”Funniest drunk moment?” she asked
”Okay I’m not sure about mine but that’s the best I can think of. So I was drunk, like stupid drunk, and I ended up calling the pizza place, aka Mario’s pizza and instead of ordering a pizza I started ranting about how Luigi doesn’t get enough credit and it’s always about Mario, that he even has his own pizza shop and where is Luigi?” she told him reminiscing on that ”I don’t even remember it happening but I still have a recording of that conversation until this day” she said

“Welcome to the club. Sober sense not allowed,”

A smile played upon his lips as he watched the girl from his side of the elevator, raising the bottle as he took a small sip before pushing it to her side. “I’ll cheer to that,” Dan whispered, as his eyes fell on her once again, watching as she took a drink illuminated by the red lighting in the elevator. There was no doubt in his mind that neither Valerie nor Dan would leave the elevator sober… if they could even leave tonight. Which, from the way this conversation was going, he didn’t necessarily mind if they didn’t as he was enjoying the girl’s company… truly making him wonder what had happened all those years ago to cause a rift between them in the first place. Though, he was brought out of his drunken thoughts as she asked if he was going to go to Harvard or MIT.

A slight sigh left his lips as he sent her a smile. “They were contenders, but I ended up settling on the University of Oxford, back in England. Jessica’s headed there and someone needs to take care of her,” Dan stated, telling the honest truth for maybe the first time in his life to someone that wasn’t one of his closest friends. Though in retrospect, it wasn’t like Daniel had any close friends left. And yes, Dan knew that Jessica didn’t need anyone to take care of her. At the same time, he… needed to. She had done the same for him years ago when she followed him to America, and in a strange way, Parker wanted to do the same for her. “You remember Jess right? She’s about to hate me because I f*cked up, I always f- up” Dan mumbled, taking another long drink as he remembered the message about Andy… knowing that would be one long… conversation whenever she arrived in the morning. After all, not only had Daniel put Andy in Juvie - he had also hacked Jessica’s phone to make sure she got no news or calls from the man so she wouldn’t know.

Suffice to say, Daniel was glad when they moved from that conversation onto a more interesting one. After all, who knew Brian the ginger was freaky in bed? And not the good kind. “You know… I always knew there was something off about Brian. He once asked me a favor to get him backstage tickets to Beauty and the Beast on ice. I thought it was for a girlfriend or something but damn,” Daniel laughed, running his hands through his hair as the girl talked about Brian’s dirty talk in bed. “I have to ask, did he call you Val or did he call you Belle in bed? Because there are some lines you shouldn’t cross,” Dan grinned. “Anyways, Beauty and the Beast was kind of a f*cked up movie anyways so I wouldn’t lose sleep over never being able to watch it again. I mean the whole premise is the beast kidnaps her to make her fall in love with him. Kinda bs if you ask me. At least Mulan is badass.” Dan explained, handing her the bottle at the end of the story. “Oh you win. Without a doubt. That sounds traumatizing.”

“Funniest drunk moment?”

As he thought back to his various drunken stupor moments, he raised his eyebrow to her story. “Okay but seriously. Luigi does all the damn work and his older brother just takes all the damn credit. Luigi needs his own franchise that just goes into him secretly hating his brother,” Dan agreed, “but I would love to hear your arguments on the subject,”

After a moment of thinking, Dan smiled. “Alright, but I swear Val, you can’t search this up. Two years ago Jessica and I made a bet about who could dance better so I hacked us as contestants into this old show called 'Lip Sync Battle’ that only aired in Canada and I did a rendition of Umbrella by Rihanna in fishnets and leather. I was drunk out of my mind and have absolutely no idea what I was doing - but Jess and I are now famous in Canada if that tells you anything,” Daniel laughed, remembering the moment they had gone on the show as a joke. “and No,” Dan said almost immediately, watching as Val started to make a comment. “I know what you’re thinking. I’m riding on the fact that you’ll be too drunk to remember I told you this,” he smiled, “and yes, I was wearing heels. How the hell do you girls do it with those death traps?”

“Funniest untrue rumor you’ve heard about yourself recently?” Daniel questioned, getting up from his sleeping position as he instead leaned against the elevator, looking at the girl with curious eyes. "The freshman girls apparently think I’m a god and have something to do with everything falling apart in their lives. Last week I read a few texts, and I sh!t you not, it said “Oh may gawd,” Daniel started in a very valley girl accent, “Did you know what Daniel did today. He broke Emma and Jake up. OMG they were supposed to be together forever but like apparently he paid Emma to break up with Jake and date Adam. ADAM. Of all people. Ugh whatever,” Dan laughed, rolling his eyes as he told the girl the story. “They also think I have something to do with tictok not getting banned, but I can’t take credit for that one,”

Elodie May DeLoughrey

“I just might expect you to treat me like royalty from now on,” she jokingly said as a playful smile lingered on her lips, placing her hands on her knees and straightening her back as soon as she pulled back from his hug. Jordan surely knew how to make her feel special, one of the many things she loved about him. And as much as she wanted to enjoy the attention he was giving her for God know what time tonight, her head turned towards his bandmates the second she heard all the “Ooohs” coming from them. His bandmates who she has never met before.

“Oh, is that so? You’ve been talking about me?” She looked at him with a slightly raised brow, placing her hand over her heart in a joking manner. Of course, she wasn’t surprised, as bandmates they should know a few things about each other and people from their personal lives but she always wondered how he would describe her to them.
“Nice to finally meet you guys,” she quickly added with the sweetest smile right before one of the girls ran up to give her a hug, making her chuckle lightly. From what she could see so far they seemed like lovely people, people she hoped Jordan had around him.

Laughing at Jordan’s next words, she looked at Tom and shook her head with almost a disappointed look on her face. “I keep getting friend-zoned,” she jokingly mumbled but quickly looked back at Jordan with a bright smile on her lips, gently placing her hand on top of his and squeezing it. But he wasn’t lying, they were just good friends and she was more than happy about it. She loved their friendship enough to not want to risk ruining it. What she heard next coming from one of his bandmates, Ricker if she could remember correctly, made her stay quiet, not knowing how to react to it. Luckily Jordan was quick to speak up as she smiled to herself, actually flattered by the question, and before she knew it he wanted to take her backstage, away from his friends. “I am,” she quickly added as she walked past the guy, looking directly at him with a soft smile. Woah.

She could see Jordan wasn’t that excited about it but she couldn’t blame him. He was right there, behind Mikel when he basically confessed his love for Jezebel but she didn’t want that to be something that would stop them for having some more fun. And she knew he wouldn’t say no so maybe she was just being selfish at that moment but she genuinely wanted to have him by her side for as long as possible, now that he was finally back. “Whatever you want,” she quickly replied with the biggest grin on her face the moment he agreed on going with her.

Until she stepped outside she didn’t even realize that the weather was getting worse - that it was raining. But she didn’t mind that, she quickly got in the limo with Jordan following behind and almost right away laid his head on her lap. Her hand immediately flew to his hair, gently playing with it as she looked out of the window. His words pulling her back to reality as almost an apologetic smile appeared on her lips. “Yeah, Jezebel and Mikel,” she quietly answered with a sigh, expecting he would mention that sooner or later. He didn’t even have to continue his sentence, she knew exactly what he wanted to aks her and she felt terribly sorry for him. She knew how much Jordan loved Jezebel, she would be lying if she said she was never jealous because of that, jealous because she had someone that cared so much about her. But their split was inevitable, just like the possible of Jez finding someone else because no one knew Jordan would be coming back. She gently moved her hand to his shoulder as her gaze remained on him for a couple fo second before she looked back at the window. She wished she could do something about it, something to help but she couldn’t. She didn’t know how that must feel but she was sure it was awful. “I’m sorry,” was the only thing she could whisper as she let her head rest back on the seat. “But we’re gonna dance and have fun and everything will be alright,” she added, trying to put on a soft smile but it only looked like a really forced and fake one.

Soon she noticed they arrived and she shifted her gaze back to him, quietly speaking up, “You don’t have to do this if you don’t want to. I’ll be fine.”

“I’ll cheer to that,” he quietly said and pushed the bottle over to her, she picked it up and drank from it, the bitter liquor burning down her throat, but she didn’t mind. ”Hell yeah” she agreed and put the bottle down pushing it back to him.

“They were contenders, but I ended up settling on the University of Oxford, back in England. Jessica’s headed there and someone needs to take care of her,”
Thats really sweet of you” she said with a light smile. One could say many Bad things about Daniel Parker but the way he cared for his friends and family and do pretty much everything for them, was always something Valerie appreciated about him. She didn’t even need to be one of them to know that she just knew the people themselves and they seemed to love Daniel, which was nice. ”Though I’m pretty sure Jessica can take care of herself” she added with a subtle snorted chuckle

"You remember Jess right? She’s about to hate me because I fcked up, I always f- up"*
Remember her is quite an understatement when talking about her thoughts and memories regarding Jessica, but surprisingly Daniel didn’t know that considering he knows pretty much everything, and it wasn’t something she was going to talk about, especially not to someone who is basically Jessica’s best friend. ”Yeah of course” she said with a light singular nod ”How could I forget” she added and listened as he said he fcuked up, ”What did you do?” she asked, even though she wouldn’t be surprised if he didn’t tell her ”I’m sure she’ll forgive you at some point even if it’s bad, it’s Jessica you guys are inseparable” she added with a small smile

”Oh god” she started laughing as Daniel told her about the tickets for beauty and the beast on ice ”That it some weird obsession I swear to god” she shook her head
“I have to ask, did he call you Val or did he call you Belle in bed? Because there are some lines you shouldn’t cross,”
”Both” she said ”the first time I corrected him it was even before we got to his room, but that’s when it got weird” she shook her head
"Anyways, Beauty and the Beast was kind of a fcked up movie anyways so I wouldn’t lose sleep over never being able to watch it again. I mean the whole premise is the beast kidnaps her to make her fall in love with him. Kinda bs if you ask me. At least Mulan is badass."*
”Mulan is awesome I agree. Though Aladdin was always on the top for me” she said
“Oh you win. Without a doubt. That sounds traumatizing.”
She smirked and picked up the bottle ”Traumatized until this day” She said and drank from it, before putting it back down

”He does its so unfair” she said in response to Daniel’s comment on Mario and Luigi ”What an outrage” she shook her head ”I can find the recording if you want, I sure made some good arguments” she chuckled

“Alright, but I swear Val, you can’t search this up. Two years ago Jessica and I made a bet about who could dance better so I hacked us as contestants into this old show called Lip Sync Battle that only aired in Canada and I did a rendition of Umbrella by Rihanna in fishnets and leather. I was drunk out of my mind and have absolutely no idea what I was doing - but Jess and I are now famous in Canada if that tells you anything,”
Lip sync. She raised her brow intrigued as he told her about it . ”Oh my god” she said and stopped herself from laughing ”you on heels lip syncing to Rihanna. That, is, p e r f e c t i o n.” she said empathizing each one of the last three words.
“I know what you’re thinking. I’m riding on the fact that you’ll be too drunk to remember I told you this,”
”Very certified genius of you” she said with a small smirk

“Funniest untrue rumor you’ve heard about yourself recently?”

She thought and listened as he told her about the rumor the freshmans started on him
“Oh may gawd, Did you know what Daniel did today. He broke Emma and Jake up. OMG they were supposed to be together forever but like apparently he paid Emma to break up with Jake and date Adam. ADAM. Of all people. Ugh whatever,”
”Are you sure you’re not a Valley girl in disguise?” she raised her brow at his impression **”That’s
“They also think I have something to do with tictok not getting banned, but I can’t take credit for that one,”
”That’s just so weird” she rolled her eyes *”High school kids would literally believe anything” she said
”Not sure about funny, but last year there was a rumor about me that I was supposed to repeat junior year and the only reason I’m a senior is because joined a threesome with the headmaster and his wife.” she said and shook her head with a partial face palm and a small smile ”I’d stay in high school forever and not do that he’s like 70. And that mole” she said and shivered in disgust

”Okay, hmmm, worst date” she said and thought of an answer
”Mine is not that bad but it’s what I could come up with. It was in one of the of the times I visited London, I went on a date with this guy I met and it was like all fun and stuff, we went to a party and he got wasted, lost his wallet and started losing his sh!t freaking out. Eventually he got kicked out and threw up on the bouncer, I just took an Uber and vanished, never spoke to him again” she said and shook her head

A soft smile reached Jordan’s lips as he saw Elodie interact with his band mates – though they had honestly become family at this point. Despite the teasing… or maybe even because of it, it brought a grin to his face as Elo spoke to them. He loved seeing one of his favorite people in the world interact with those who mattered most to Jordan.

”I keep getting friend-zoned”

A whole-hearted laugh left Jordan’s lips as he wrapped his arms around her shoulders, kissing her forehead as she placed her hand in his own. “Excuse me. Do you remember the amount of times guys have come up to talk to you and you quickly responded with ‘oh have you met my closest friend Jordan?’ We really want to talk about friend zoning?” he nudged the girl teasingly. As he looked back up to Riker as he started hitting on Elo, causing Jordan to jokingly glare and cut his neck in a ‘I’m going to murderrrr you’ motion. He knew that Riker meant no harm and he was a pretty solid guy. In all honesty, he may have been planning on setting them up sooner or later. Though, as of right now, Jordan just wanted Elo to have a good prom and this was not the time for set ups.

It was a passing thought in his mind as he laid his head in Elo’s lap. He hadn’t had a proper conversation with Elodie in a long time… meaning he really didn’t know anything about her love life. “Hey what do you think about Riker?” Jordan asked, looking up at her with genuine curiosity. “Or has another man caught your attention? I wasn’t joking with those Karate skills by the way. I learned just for you,” Jordan smiled playfully.

Though his smile was soon met with a slight frown as Elo stated ” Yeah, Jezebel and Mikel,” his eyes closing as he remembered Jezebel moments ago. His heart racing… hurting as he thought about Mikel being with her. *” I’m sorry,”*With those words, a sigh left his lips as he finally opened his eyes to meet hers again. “She…” Jordan started… wanting to tell Elodie what had happened moments earlier. But if there was one thing he respected; Jordan Williams would never invade Jezebel’s privacy by saying she kissed me. Instead, the words that left his mouth were “… deserves to be happy. Does… he make her happy?” Jordan questioned quietly.

Though his sad grimace was soon replaced by a slightly forced smile as the girl attempted to make him feel better. “I haven’t forgotten my promise to make your feet hurt,” he whispered, before moving his head up as the car game to a stop.

”You don’t have to do this if you don’t want to. I’ll be fine”

Shaking his head, Jordan wrapped his fingers within her own. “No… if we’re going to do this… I’m going to need you by my side to be okay,” Jordan whispered as he opened the door for her and grabbed the umbrella, making sure she was fully covered so she couldn’t get wet as they walked to the door. As for himself, a little water didn’t hurt… especially as he had gotten soaked only an hour earlier – his mind filled with thoughts of Jezebel Sloane.

Entering the house, Jordan put the umbrella to the side and closed the door, walking hand in hand with Elodie inside – taking in the interior. Jordan wasn’t new to the whole Cerulean High rich crowd, though there was something about being in these huge houses that always felt… empty to him. Though as the walked further inside, it was only a second or two before the lights flashed and turned off – causing a commotion with someone screaming and the sound of glass smashing on the floor.

Holding on to Elodie, he looked at her through the darkness. “You okay?” Jordan whispered as people around them scrambled about complaining about the lights. “Be careful where you step,” he mumbled as Jordan looked around the room.

”That’s really sweet of you”

He raised his eyebrows at the words, looking at Valerie with his head turning ever so slightly as if to display a slight essence of bewilderment. “Now don’t you go telling people. I don’t need you ruining my amazing reputation,” he stated with a laugh, nodding at the next statement of Jessica not needing anyone. She wasn’t wrong. Jessica was one of the most independent people he knew – but perhaps it was a two-way thing. Daniel needed Jessica too in a way… plus it would ease his own worry to be able to watch over her. A difficult feat as of recently as she lived in a different country – though the two talked every day if not visiting each other every few weeks. Though her questioning about what he did brought him out of his train of thought. Grabbing the bottle, Daniel took a large drink before putting it back down. “Let’s just say… she got into some trouble. And I got her out… but I also made sure that the person who got her into trouble wouldn’t be doing so again for a while,” Daniel stated quietly, leaning his head against the wall.

In this position, his eyes closed and leaning against the cold wall, Dan listened to her talk about Brian’s obsession. “What a creep,” Daniel mumbled, laughing as she talked about how he had called her ‘Belle’ more than once. “Wait,” Dan stated, looking back at her with one eye open. “You do know he’s dating that girl Bella Duran now right. Do you think it’s only so he can scream ‘Belle’ in bed without it seeming weird?”

As said conversation moved over to the famed Mario argument, he nodded. “Please do, I need that argument to live rent-free in my head,” Daniel laughed, moving his head back up to look at her – rolling his eyes as she burst out into a fit of laughter at his rise to fame in Canada. “I’ll have you know; they love me over there,” Dan stated, playfully kicking her from his side of the elevator.

”Very Certified genius of you”

“I try. Only three people at this school know of its existence – and when you wake up tomorrow, I’m hoping it’ll come back to two,” Dan smiled humorously as they moved onto the next topic of his impression. “I’ve been practicing, you never know when you will casually need a valley girl impression – it did make you laugh didn’t it? I’d say that’s a win in my book,” Daniel revealed, as he listed to her rumor about having a threesome with the headmaster and his wife. “Oh that mole definitely, without a doubt, needs its own bed with how big it is,” Daniel continued, “and I don’t even think the headmaster’s wife sleeps with him… actually I know she doesn’t. She’s been sleeping with Professor Grundy in the Art department for the last three years… don’t ask how I know that,” Daniel mumbled, shivering as he remembered the day he walked into the headmaster’s office and instead found the headmaster’s wife f*cking Professor Grundy WHILE the headmaster watched. Suffice to say, it was great leverage, but it left emotional and mental scarring. “ so… how can anyone think you would if even his wife wouldn’t? Though I’ll give it to you. You win,” Dan muttered, handing the girl the bottle back.

”Okay, hmmm, worst date?”

He listened to her response and frowned, shaking his head that any man would ever treat a woman like that. “Sounds like a jackass,” Daniel signed, scratching his head. “Remember Emily Makenzie I told you about earlier?” Dan questioned, “Remember when I said she was delusional and made herself think that we were dating? Well… she drugged me two weeks afterwards… before I hooked her up with that other guy, and I woke up naked in her room with rose petals all over the floor and the bed and she forced me to have a date with her in her room with her dolls… yes… we had a tea party with dolls… while I was butt naked. That was the date,” Daniel stated, shaking his head as he massaged his head. “That was probably the worst one… there was also that time where my date pretended to drop something and then started giving me a bl*wjob… the only problem was that the table was see-through and she wouldn’t listen…” Dan stated, taking the bottle and doing a long drink.

“Alright… this isn’t really a question for both of us. But are you okay?” Dan asked, “I heard you were crying earlier…” he stated. “Don’t ask how I know that but… was it Dom? I’ll beat the idiot up.” Dan muttered, still mad at the man for what he had done months earlier.

”Now don’t you go telling people. I don’t need you ruining my amazing reputation,”
”Hey being sweet to people you care about isn’t a bad reputation. You can rock heels, pretty sure you can do both.” she chuckled ”You and your many talents”

“Let’s just say… she got into some trouble. And I got her out… but I also made sure that the person who got her into trouble wouldn’t be doing so again for a while,”
”Oof” she said after she listened and nodded, a part of her wanted to know or at least try to think who it might be, but she didn’t really believe she knew Jessica anymore so she couldn’t think of anyone she knew it could be, so she just let it slide. ”Well it’s up to her now, but I still think she’ll forgive you” she added with a light shrug

“You do know he’s dating that girl Bella Duran now right. Do you think it’s only so he can scream ‘Belle’ in bed without it seeming weird?”
”Oh noooo” she replied and shook her head in cringe ”That’s so weird!” she said ”Fcuking hell” she made a face and picked up the bottle again drinking from it, just because she felt like it.

“Please do, I need that argument to live rent-free in my head,”
”Hold on” she picked up her phone and looked for the recording, playing it so he could listen. She practically called a pizza place and the poor pizza guy (with the hilarious Italian accent) didn’t know how to deal with her. ”I was so!drunk” she laughed lightly and put her phone down

“I’ll have you know; they love me over there,”
”Well I’m not arguing with them you danced in heels and fishnets what’s not to love” she laughed and shook her head raising a playful brow at him

“I’ve been practicing, you never know when you will casually need a valley girl impression – it did make you laugh didn’t it? I’d say that’s a win in my book,”
”Definitely a win” she said ”all the valley girls are jealous now” she added with a small smile and ran a hand through her hair before leaning her head back against the wall facing him

“Oh that mole definitely, without a doubt, needs its own bed with how big it is,”
”Probably” she nodded ”I bet he has a king size in his room and his wife has a separate room because there’s no room for her in the bed” she added and snorted a laugh

“and I don’t even think the headmaster’s wife sleeps with him… actually I know she doesn’t. She’s been sleeping with Professor Grundy in the Art department for the last three years… don’t ask how I know that,”
”Woahh. Damn tea.” she said ”Ew a cheater.” she said and rolled her eyes. Even though she has never been in an actual relationship and always had changing people around, if there was one thing she’d never do other than a threesome with the headmaster, it would be cheating. As much as most people who don’t actually know her well would never guess that, but it’s something she always hated and told herself she will never do. ”Grundy though? He’s not the best either but technically none of them are” she added.

“so… how can anyone think you would if even his wife wouldn’t? Though I’ll give it to you. You win,”
”Wish I knew” she said and picked up the bottle again ”but at least I win” she smirked and drank from it again.

”Sounds like a jackass,”
”He was fine until he lost his wallet, but yeah” she said ”why do you think I never talked to him again” she added with a shrug

”Remember Emily Makenzie I told you about earlier?”
”My memory isn’t that short, of course I remember” she said with a joking eye roll and listened to him as he told her about the… rose petal incident. ”Butt naked tea party” she raised her brow and tried keeping a straight face but it didn’t last long, that story was just so cringeworthy.
He started telling about another one. God girls are so weird sometimes, Valerie thought to herself
”the only problem was that the table was see-through and she wouldn’t listen…”
”Oh god-“ she said with wide eyes and covered her mouth ”did people see??” she asked ”oh and you definitely won this one” she added moments later

“Alright… this isn’t really a question for both of us. But are you okay? I heard you were crying earlier…”
Oh no. Valerie started rewinding things in her brain again and bit her lip trying not to ”I’m better now I think, as much as being stuck in an elevator isn’t ideal I think it was just the distraction I needed.” she said and looked at him with a slight smile, thanking him even though she didn’t say it in words.
“was it Dom? I’ll beat the idiot up.”
”No no not at all” she said protecting Dominic ”He didn’t do anything he was actually pleasantly surprising. I just had a fight with Candice, but it’ll be okay” she said not going into detail, even though she didn’t actually believe it was going to be okay, but she tried telling herself that, maybe it would make her believe it.

Elodie May DeLoughrey

Talking about her love life wasn’t something Elodie thought she would be doing tonight. Not getting any questions about why she had Daniel set her up with someone was a bit strange but she was happy it was that way. She didn’t want to talk about it, think about it but Jordan was someone she knew she could talk about anything with. Right now she just wasn’t sure if she wanted to bring up the person that’s been on her mind for a long time but keeping it all inside wouldn’t do her any good. “Just for me.” She simply repeated after him, having a weak smile - her mind filled with thoughts. What to say, how she felt, what was important and what wasn’t.

“I just met Riker so I can’t tell you anything but he seems sweet. And to answer your other question…” She sweetly started speaking, looking somewhere to the side while her weak smiled turned into a frown.
“I don’t know,” with a shrug she looked back at him forcing another smile, remembering how hurt she was just days ago. But she knew. She knew exactly who caught her attention and how lost she felt. “Malachi is here now too but that’s not…” She stopped for a second to chuckle and shake her head. “There’s someone else and I just… I don’t understand what happened, everything was good.” At this point she didn’t feel like she was telling him her story but talking to herself, trying to understand what she did wrong. “Lyonrad. But forget what I said, I guess it’s not really important because there’s not much to say,” she quietly continued, avoiding meeting his eyes as she nervously bit the inside of her lip.

"Does… he make her happy?”
And to that Elodie didn’t know what to say. It was a new thing, something they all didn’t know much about so she let the silence take over for a moment. From what she could see, she was happy, he was happy too. She remembered the conversation she had with Mikel before Valentine, how happy he was about his date with the mystery girl so she could only assume they were happy. “He does,” she replied just as quietly, knowing it won’t be that easy to hear. It’s good to know she was happy but it probably wasn’t easy hearing she was happy with someone else.

As Jordan wrapped his fingers within her own, she looked down at their hands and nodded to what he said, making sure to give him the most genuine smile when she looked back up to meet his eyes. “And I won’t leave your side,” she reassuringly said, very gently quizzing his hand before they left the limo and headed inside.

Walking inside, tightly holding Jordan’s hand as she waited for him to close the door and put the umbrella to the side, she looked around, noticing how many people were already there. There really was nothing like parties thrown by the students of Cerulean High but she couldn’t shake this feeling of something being wrong. Mikel’s text felt off, this party happened so suddenly. To make things worse, as they walked further inside all the lights went off, followed by the sounds of disappointed people. “Great,” she mumbled and took a step closer to Jordan, tightly holding onto him. “I am, I am,” she quickly replied as her hand reached to grab the phone that was inside of her purse to turn on the flash but her battery was so low and she couldn’t risk her phone turning off. “Great,” she repeated once again, turning to face Jordan in the darkness. “I guess this is a sign. We should’ve stayed in the limo,” she jokingly added to lighten up the mood but very quickly got slightly serious again. “So what now?”

”Hey being sweet to people you care about isn’t a bad reputation. You can rock heels, pretty sure you can do both… you and your many talents.”

Dan smiled as he stood up from his position on the floor, stretching slightly before walking over towards Val’s side and sitting next to her. “Never thought I’d be here for the day that Valerie Wood would complement me. Have we walked into an alternate universe?” Dan smiled, nodding slightly as she talked about Jessica. Though, he’d just have to wait and see how she’d react. Perhaps the storm would keep her away for a few days so he could figure out how to respond.

With that thought pushed to the back of Daniel Parker’s mind, he instead listened to the recording of what seemingly was a very drunk Valerie Wood, smiling and shaking his head as he listened to her arguments. “You made some good points,” Dan mumbled, listening to the rest with a laugh as she continued to yell at the poor worker. “Remind me not to get into an argument with you while you’re that drunk… I do think you’d win,” Daniel explained.

Daniel truly hadn’t had this much fun a conversation in a long time. Especially since his outing with Jezebel Sloane… it was… refreshing. Especially since he never thought it would be with Valerie Wood. Though, the two continued laughing talking about everything from his fake impression to the headmaster’s love life… or lack thereof. All the way back to his own life.

”Butt naked tea party?”

Dan nodded with a sigh, “Yes, butt naked tea party. I only escaped when her mom came in and screamed at me – which I was happy about as weird as that sounds,” Daniel reveled taking another drink of the bottle. “… and yes. It was a see-through table and we were at a French restaurant. So a few too many people saw and now I’m banned for life… which sucks because they had great food,” he stated, smiling as she said he won and taking a long drink of the bottle that was more than half through at this point.

Though the real conversation started when she told him why she was crying. “Ah, I have been told I’m a good distraction. Though Candice Clarke? Can’t say I’m surprised,” Daniel stated. He probably knew more about the girl than most people – though Daniel could say that about everyone. “Well, I’m glad it wasn’t Dom, because I do think with how drunk I am, If I saw him, I would have punched him at this point,” Daniel smiled, “Hey…also…” Dan started, “I’m sorry about the kiss,” he signed, putting his head in his hands as he said that, remembering the look Yara had as he walked in. “Probably shouldn’t have done that… but I’ve been known for my fair share of rash decisions recently” Dan muttered.

“Okay this has gotten depressing,” Dan mumbled, standing up from his place next to her as he grabbed his phone – putting some music on that he had downloaded on his phone. “Come on, get up,” Dan smiled. “It’s prom night, we should be dancing,”

@CerealKiller - he reallllyyy drunk now
