Chapter 1: Dazed and Confused

Dianna's POV

"Hey Maxine, spin that bottle already girl c'mon"

"Okay fine! Here I go!"

We watched the bottle spin until it stops and points a person. Yep, you guessed it, the good old spin the bottle game that a person must do a dare or face a truth when someone asks you a question. This brings childhood memories.

The bottle is slowing down and it looks like.... Oh no... please don't tell me....

The bottle is pointed to me.... great.

"Dianna! Truth or dare?"

"Um.... dare. Kidding! Truth of course"

"Ehh! Which one for real?"

"Truth! Truth hehehe peace"

"Hmmmm Dianna..."

"Yeah?"

"Who is your first kiss?"

"Ehh? F~First kiss? Hmmm"

Flashback

'"cock a doodle doo~~ cock a doodle doo"

What is that sound?! Shuush!

"cock a doodle doo~~ cock a doodle doo~"

This rooster, I'm going to fry you if you don't stop!

"cock a doodle doo~ cock a doodle doo~"

One! If you don't stop, I'm going to fry you alive! Then I'm going to give you to the owner and let him eat you!

"COCK A DOODLE DOO~~ COCK A DOODLE DOO~"

Ahh, I see how it is, you don't want to stop?!!! Get over here you... wait, why is there a rooster? Why is there a sound like that? We don't have a rooster.

I got up from bed and just sat down, quickly rubbing my eyes to see clearly... Wait, I slept here? What in the crazy world happened? And why am I dizzy and my head hurts? Uhhh....

"cock a doodle doo~ cock a doodle doo~"

Arghhh this rooster is getting on my nerves and where is it?!

I looked around me why is it different? This is clearly not my bedroom. Now I remember, this is the guestroom of my best friend’s house. 

"cock a doodle doo~ cock a doodle doo~"

I looked at the side and saw the cause of the rooster noise. It was just an alarm clock, for real I don't know why my best friend’s guestroom alarm clock is a rooster. Hold on a second, why am I here in the first place? What happened exactly? Also, my head is hurting nonstop, did I drink? Wait, I think I'm going to throw up ughh.

I was about to stand up and I looked at myself and I have no clothes on. Literally nothing, not even my shorts, completely naked! Well, I do have fine lines, not stretch marks I don't have those. I looked on the other side to find my clothes and it was there.... right on top of someone. That someone is right beside me and it's a GUY! His back was facing me and why does he have no shirt on? Does he have no shorts on? Wait let me.... No no no Dianna stay away, don't look. Just take the clothes hurry and go.

Self why are you like this... don't tell me what I'm thinking now is what happened? No no no don't think of that Dianna stop!

Inhale, exhale, inhale, exhale. You're still a virgin, okay? I'm just keeping myself calm for now, but I still can't avoid the fact that something happened with me and him. Augh I don't want to live anymore.

I need to get out of here quick.

I slowly stood up and then my bag was just under the bed thank God. Right beside the sofa and there is a door, I think that is the restroom of this guestroom. I got my bag and just sprinted all the way, and as soon as I close the door I'm almost out of breath. Did I just run a marathon?

I checked myself if there is any part of my body hurting. Ouch! Yeah, my head still hurts, the after taste of alcohol is still there ugh, I just want to throw up right now. Wait why is my stomach hurting as well, I mean right below that is...AAAARRRRGGGGHHH! 

I looked at myself in the mirror with big eyes.

"What if something did happen? What about my.......W-what the..." I stopped talking and my eyes widened even more when I saw there is a kiss mark on my neck! Like what in the world is happening to me right now?

"What did you do to get yourself into this mess Dianna??!! You shouldn't have drunk alcohol!!" Screamed at myself at the mirror like a total lunatic that just gave up in myself.

I really need to get out of here now, good thing I have spare clothes I can use now.

I quickly pulled the fresh clothes out of my bag.

And put them on, combed my hair and just put on powder on my face so it won't look like something happened. Wait, what am I going to use for the kiss mark on my neck? There are a lot of them, why in the world? It's so embarrassing going home like this. I should just borrow a scarf from Melanie to cover this up. These marks are really killing me!

One last check, okay it doesn't look I slept with someone. Gahd Dianne you're pretty 'kiss kiss', okay let's get out of here and find.... As soon as I open the door

"OUCH! Did I bump myself on a wall?" I was surprised when I tried to touch the wall. "This isn't a wall" Quickly I opened my eyes, and it was the guy who was beside me in bed. And I'm, I'm touching his chest? Ehh! I quickly let go of my hand and ran out and just said "I'll be going first, bye!" And the guy just stood there scratching his head and I ran down quickly out of the guest room to find my best friend Melanie

As I went out of the guestroom,

I went to the bedroom of Melanie to check if she was there, so she could lend me the scarf I needed desperately.

"Bestie? Bestie are you awake? Bes?" I was knocking on the door but there was no one answering my shouting

"Bestie?! Bes Melanie are you there by any chance?! Bes?!" I tried holding the doorknob and twisted it to see if it was locked, but it wasn't though. I slowly opened it and peeked inside, hmm looks like no one is here. Great!

Maybe she's in the living room and just lying on the floor sleeping.

I went down the stairs. Yes, stairs, the guestroom is on the second floor. You get it by now she's rich, moving on, I was going down to find her and to end this misery.

As I got there the whole place is just trashed. Some party huh? The whole living room is just a mess, and it reeks of alcohol woooh! Bottles are just everywhere, and some glasses are just shattered, with some sleeping bodies. And one of the bodies is my best friend Melanie, she is sleeping, but she is on the sofa. I guessed I got that one right.

Why is her position in sleeping is so weird? She looks like she just performed a ballet show.

I went closer to her and gave a tap on the shoulder to wake her up "Bestie? Melanie wakes up. Wake up come on" She pushed me, and I thought she meant it, but she was still asleep. "Chocolate milk yummy" And apparently, she was also dreaming, nice. You left me no choice, I went back to her and just pinched her arm.

"Ouch! What the heck?? Dianna?" As she said it, she stretched out and yawns. Lol I want to mess her up more with her looks like now, but no I need that scarf. Save the pranks for next time Dianna. She got up and asked, "What happened here? I think I drank a lot of last night, I know I drank only 1 bottle" Gahd she is cute as well "You drank 1 bottle and 2 other bottles of alcohol Melanie hahaha"

"Yeah, I do look like wasted hehe sorry. How was in the guest room by the way? I bet it was all comfy" As she looks at me and then stopped and stares right on my.... Yeah, you guessed it. My lovely neck. "What happened Dianna? Why are there a bajillion marks on your neck?"

"B-Bess. Look I don't know as well. We were both wasted, I woke up with these marks, and there was a guy beside me."

"Oh my gosh, who was it?"

"I don't know to be honest, classmate I think?"

"Your classmate Dianne?"

"Nope, yours Melanie."

"Hmmm, what exactly happ...?"

"Oh yeah Bess" I cut her off to stop going to that topic that I don't want to remember, "Can you lend me your scarf? I need to go home, and I don't want to be caught with these marks."

"Okay okay just stay right there and I'll go get it in my room be right back" Halfway the stairs and she spoke. "Ohh Blake! Where did you come from? Where did you sleep as well?"

Ahh Blake? Blake is that guy’s name... Wait, isn't he the guy from earlier? The one beside me on bed? He's wearing clothes now at least.

In fairness he does have the looks, his build and muscles are like from James Reid. Not to mention that he is also white, and his eyes are slanted, is he Korean? Wait why am I even looking at him? Dianna keeps yourself together girl.

"I was in the guestroom, I'm going to go home after drinking some water, thanks for the party, Melanie". Blake says it with a smile. Both are just at the stairs and I'm just watching on the sofa like a stalker.

"Oh, okay okay, just go to the kitchen there are glasses and just get the water from the fridge."

"Sure" He was going down and looked at my direction and I hid suddenly.

Am I the one is he looking at? Why does it seem like it?

I just took my phone in my bag and pretend I'm doing something. So that he doesn't get the idea I'm looking at him. Even though I looked away from him, on the corner of my eye I see him walking towards here. Noooo stop you criminal scum, don't go here. My mind is about to blow. Why am I getting nervous suddenly? What is he going to do?

Until then...

"Mi-miss?" My eyes widen from his voice. He was already in front of me, but I didn't look at him and kept on looking at my phone. Yes Dianna, just ignore him, then he will ignore you too.

"Miss what's your name?" I still don't budge from his words. Yes, just like that Dianna. Don't utter a word, not a single response.

"Miss? Those marks on your neck." Is he not going to stop asking me? Everything is just awkward from this morning till now, and I'm all pressured by this guy.

"And last night, sorr-"

"Oh, Hello Mom? Yeah, I'm about to leave already and on my way home." He didn't get to finish what he said, and I just faked call my mom, good thinking girl. He was surprised and stepped back and went on his way to the kitchen to drink his precious water, I guess. My phone was still on my ear, and I saw Melanie running down the stairs with the scarf that I needed so badly.

"Bess here you go, are you sure you're going home? You sure you don't want to stay for coffee? It's your favorite" As she says it in a cute way while giving the scarf.

"Uhm thanks, but no thanks Bess. Maybe next time, I still have classes to attend"

"Class? On a Saturday? Are you on drugs?"

Oh, good one Dianna, what kind of excuse was that? Why can't you just say that it was Blake all along who was with you on the bed last night? Aishhhh.

"A-ahhhh I mean I have o-online class. Yeah, that's right, online class" fingers cross, please believe me Bess.

"Ehhh online class. What kind of class is it? You are doing extra work on weekends wow!"

Gahd, it doesn't look like all is going according to plan. Dianna thinks, think... AHA!

"Ouch Bess my stomach hurts so bad, it's killing me" putting my act on with me holding my stomach and facial expressions

"H-ha? Oh no, go to the restroom quick right now."

"O-Oh! I mean. No need Bess... It looks like LBM, far worse. I don't want your toilet to get clogged by me."

"Oh really? Are you sure about that? Wait I'm going to call Blake and let him give you a ride since he's going home as well.

WAIT WHAT IN THE WORLD DID I HEAR JUST NOW? BLAKE GIVING ME A RIDE? Gahd he's the last person I want to see right now.

"No!!!" Melanie was surprised with my reaction, even Blake heard my yell "I-I mean it's fine, I can make it home on my own!"

"Bess, do you really think that you can go home with that? Just go with Blake, trust me on this."

"Really Bess no need promi-"

"Bess don't be stubborn now"

"O-okay" that's all I could say. Every time I try to make an excuse, everything goes wrong. I'm making my life even harder with my reasoning sheesh. Why am I digging my own grave?

A bit later Blake came and said, "Let's go?" I just nodded silently, while not looking at him still.

"Hey Mel, we are going to leave now. Thanks for the party." said Blake to Melanie

"Bye stay safe to both of you! Bess, drink medicine for your stomach, okay? Bye Bess!"

"Bye Bessy!" that's all I could say. I followed Blake and I was just behind him until we reached the gate. I looked back and just fantasized myself living in that luxurious house.

Haizzz, I wonder when will I live in a lavish life? The house of Melanie is quite big, and modern as well. Once you see it, you will know that a rich family is living inside it. Big gardens, with a swimming pool, and lots of cars. Like all they need is to have their own company of cars and I'm going to be their sales manager. No worries, after I graduate, I will save up a lot and one day I will buy a house bigger than this one.

Oh yeah, Blake!!!

I returned to reality and realized that Blake wasn't in front of me, in fact he's nowhere to be seen. "Where is that guy?" Nevertheless, this is better, I don't need to stand up to his presence since everything was just so awkward with him. Even just us two alone. I'll just get a cab instead.

I started walking towards the cab area until...

"Miss!"

I looked towards the sound; it was behind me. And I saw Blake, inside his car it seems, windows down and giving me a sign to hop in his car. In fairness, his car looks great. Looks like he is living his life well same with Melanie.

"Are you coming with me or am I going to leave you behind?"

What? Wow, he even gives me attitude. This guy for real.

"No need! Thanks for the offer, but I can go home on my own." With a mix of frustration, I just replied to him and looked away at the same time. Yeah, I can't stand him, not because I can't go with him or I get a free ride, but on how he asked me gets my blood hot and want to punch him.

I was going on my way, fast walking and then I felt a hand on my arm pulling me. Who else would it be? Good old Blake.

"What gives? Let go Blake! I told you I won't come" I try to squirm free from his hand, but he has a good grip on me. Does he work out or something?

"BLAKE LET ME GO!"

Rather than letting me go, he stopped pulling me and hold my shoulders facing him and our eyes just met. And why does it seem like time stopped? Am I blushing? I feel like my face is hot, and why is my heart thumping so fast? Am I nervous? Why don't you move Dianna? My body doesn't want to move, gahd this is a problem. Am I being hypnotized by his eyes? And why does it seem like he is coming closer and closer to me? Don't tell me that he is going to kiss me? No no no, please no! What am I going to do? He closed his eyes already! Am I going to close my eyes as well? ARGHHHHHH!

PAAAKKKKK!!!

I gave him a slap and that shocked him

"What in the world were you going to do?!" Now I just exploded, but inside I don't know what I should really feel. I want to be so mad at him, but in his gaze, I felt I was home and relaxed?  Aaaah, I don't know now! Maybe I'm still drunk. If it weren't for my lame reasoning with Melanie a while ago, I would have been long gone and at my house at this point. But no, I must deal with this guy as well.

"Why are you being stubborn? I'm already offering you a ride; I can't just leave you here with Melanie knowing I'm giving you a ride. Besides you liked it anyway."

He is really getting on my nerves. Should I just punch this guy and run?

"Wow, who told you I wanted to go home with you? After what happened to us, do you think I'm glad to go with you? Adn who do you think you are? I don't even know you! Tsk."

"Wait what? Something happened? Do you think something happened with us? Pffft...wow for real!"

"YES! Isn't it enough evidence that when I woke up naked in bed and you were right beside me?!"

"Miss, that is not enough evidence that something happened. Don't you remember anything last night?"

"N-Nothing!"

"Oh see, there you have it. How could you say that with your accusation?"

"Tsk Okay!! Explain this then!" I removed the scarf on my neck and showed him the marks present. 

"That?... Yeah, I'll admit we kissed, and it reached to intense kisses, but that doesn't mean it reached to se-"

"Okay, okay! But still, this is unacceptable. Why did you do that to me?"

"Me? You really asking me that? I should be the one asking you that, but since you don't remember a thing, I'll just forgive you, because I know that you were so drunk."

"W-what?!"

"Never mind, just come with me and you'll be home in no time. I want to rest already, come on this is all I ask from you." saying that with a pleading face.

"Okay. But I have a favor" I replied

"What?"

"This is the last time that we are going to see each other, I don't want to see you near me! Close to me! Or even breathe the same air anymore! Okay?"

He paused for a second, and then he nods his head as a sign of agreement.

We both went inside the car, and I showed him the directions that leads to my place. I just asked him to drop me few blocks away from my place, I don't want him to be seen by other people and him going to my place.

While Blake was parking his car at the side, I was getting ready and when he parked, I was about to open the door and he uttered.  " Hey look, I'm sorry for what happened last night, I'm sorry for kissing you back, that made our kiss even more intense... but I swear we didn't do it... nothing happened"

"Okay" that's all I could say, and he replied again.

"I also have a favor, since this is our last time seeing each other" his gaze again is intense when he looks straight at me, so serious and satisfying to look at. It really does do something inside me, erase erase what are you even thinking about Dianna gahd.

"O-okay what is it?" Why am I even stuttering what in the world and why does my face feel hot again?

"Um... C-can I kiss you again?"

Wait what?? Kiss?

"A-Ah y-yes I m-mean No wh-"

My eyes widen, he didn't give me time to think at all as he kissed me on the cheek

"Nice to meet you, and take care" and leaves me on the curb

"You too" while I just waved. Why am I waving? More importantly why did I let him kiss me again? I ran home as soon as he left the villa.

End of flashback

"So yeah, that was my first kiss."

"Your story could just go with 'the Ellen DeGeneres Show'. We only asked you about your first kiss, not your whole story about it hahahaha."

"Sorry, I got carried away with my emotions, joke hahahaa. But it is weird, I remember his name and not the face anymore."

"Didn't you say he has curved eyes? Also looks like a Korean. Omg I feel that he is so handsome ahahaha." Devilish reply by Ella

"I don't know, handsome but has attitude and our moments were so weird that I can't stand it. So, it is a no from me."

"Moments? Moments in bed? Hahahahaha joke” Maxine knows how to tease me.

"Maxine shut up, okay?" While I'm giving her a cold look

"Yeah, Maxine we have a child here" says Ella while pointing at Maine. In our circle of friends Maine is the innocent one.

"Eh? She's not a child, she already knows the-" Maxine didn't get to finish cause Ella covered her mouth.

We stopped playing when our professor came in. Hiding the bottle, we used for the game, and we just patiently waited for the lesson of the professor. 

I quickly checked my phone under the desk because it vibrated alerting me of a notification. And it was from F******k. Someone added me.

Jacob Valdez sent you a friend request.

Hmmm Jacob Valdez? Who is this guy? Meh I should just check it later at home, who knows what my professor will do when I get caught using a phone at class.
