"DEACON WAKE UP AND OPEN THE DAMN DOOR" Shouted Arthur "WE ARE GOING TO BE LATE TO THE PARTY"
As the door opened it revealed a half dressed Deacon with messy hair. "Why do you have to scream, I have neighbors you know"
"Well it worked didn't it, besides you don't want to be late to Emily's party. I know you have had a huge crush on her since high school" Arthur said teasingly
At this point Deacon's white skin had turned rosy as he remembered Emily, one of his best friends from high school. He had always liked her but could never muster up the courage to act on it. When he finally did get the courage she had announced that she would be moving away before he could say anything but recently she had moved back into town.
A year after high school and into college he had met Arthur, his now bestfriend. Arthur was 6 '2 ``, had platinum blonde hair and green eyes that shined like emeralds. He had an athletic build from working out and running all the time.
"Are you sure it's such a good idea, you know I haven't seen her in two years. What if she doesn't even remember me"
"Nonsense you are the funniest guy I know, now go and get dressed before your neighbors see you half naked"
Deacon finally realized that he was only wearing a shirt and boxers when he slammed the door shut and turned an even brighter shade of red as he heard laughter from the other side of the door.
When he finally came back out he was wearing a red tee with a black button up on top, he also had on black jeans with black shoes. All together with his brown still messy hair and red eyes and slightly muscular build he looked pretty good.
"Great you look presentable, now after you Mr. Jones we don't want to keep Ms. Davis waiting" Arthur said with a laugh as he opened the door on his emerald green muscle car waiting for me to get in.
"You know sometimes I really hate you" Deacon said with a laugh.
"And I know it now get the hell in the car and lets get going before we really are late"
On the way to the party they talked about random topics such as the latest episode in their favorite show as Deacon looked out the window to admire the scenery going past them. The starry night sky seemed to shine even brighter tonight as the moon casted its light over the buildings and onto the road leading out of the city to a high end suburbs area. As they approached their destination they could see cars lined up near one house, and that is where they were heading.
As the duo walked up to the house they could hear music blasting in the background and people talking. When they opened the door they could smell the alcohol in the air and see fifty people in the living room and even more in the backyard by the pool. As they walked through the house and into the backyard Deacon grabbed a drink from someone's cooler when he caught Arthur looking at him accusingly.
" What, it's not like they need anymore" Deacon defended but inwardly thought 'But I sure as hell do if I'm going to see Emily again'
"Alright man just be careful, I'll be back, I have to go to the bathroom" Arthur said as he walked away.
Not too long later a short 5'4" tall brunette girl walked up behind Deacon and scared him causing him to jump and drop his drink. She had curls in her hair that went to her shoulder blades while she wore jeans white shoes and a red long sleeve sweater.
"Hey Deacon, long time no see how are you!" Shouted Emily.
"Hey Em, it's been quite some time hasn't it." Responded Deacon as he nervously shifted on his feet as he saw that she looked even better than he remembered with her porcelain white skin, red lips and rosy cheeks.
They spent a few minutes catching up talking about what they had been doing the past 2 years in college, when Emily said she had something to show him and took his hand and led him to her room. Deacon was turning red as they went but didn't say anything as he was a little embarrassed. Emily sat him down on her bed and told him to close his eyes, he followed her instructions and when she told him to open them she was holding a painting of them from high school when they went on a trip to visit the ocean.
"Tada, I had this made after I decided to move back to town. I figured you would like it to remind you of the good ole days when we could have fun and not have to worry too much."
"Em, I love it, it brings back so many memories like when you got yelled at by Mrs. White for covering her entire classroom with toilet paper" Deacon laughed as he remembered the pranks they used to pull on their homeroom teacher.
"I have one more surprise now, close your eyes again" she commanded to which Deacon listened.
As his eyes closed he felt her place one of her hands on the back of his neck when she whispered in his ear "I am so sorry for this.." He went to open his eyes and as he did he felt something sharp stab him in his stomach. The pain was unbearable as he almost fainted from it when the door busted in and Arthur ran in and hit Emily with a shard of ice. As Deacon was losing consciousness Arthur ran over to him and cut his palm and squeezed the blood into Deacon's mouth. It tasted like metal but after a few seconds it turned sweet as it slid down his throat, then everything went dark as he had finally fainted.
