Sorry for any mistakes.
A couple of hours passed of me just lurking around because I knew nobody, and nobody knew me so I finally had enough and started to look for my sister. It was almost curfew. I pushed my way through the crowd looking for my sister apologizing to anyone I bumped into, I was walking at a pretty fast pace until I ran into a brick wall and falling flat on my butt, ouch I thought as I got up. Wait brick wall I thought, then I noticed it probably wasn't a brick wall "I'm so sorry" I stated before looking up and noticing what I ran into was definitely not a brick wall I was looking at the one and only Ryder Anderson.
"What the hell" Ryder bellowed. I swallowed hard looking up into his eyes, they were rage-filled and looked like he was about to kill someone the only other time I've seen that look was with my grandpa and that was seven years ago. I was already terrified when he yelled thank god no one could hear him and the ones that could just walked away.
"s-s-s-sorry" I mumbled eyes wide looking at the floor on the verge of tears.
I've never had confrontation like this especially with Ryder, heck I've never even talked to him despite my gigantic crush on him and this is terrifying I thought a tear falling out of my watery eyes.
"just get the hell away from me, and keep it that way," said Ryder, eyes still full of rage as I walked away wiping the tears that fell out of my eye still looking for my sister.
I finally found Violet about thirty minutes later chugging some alcohol by the: keg? I questioned in my head. I walked over to her and she jumped at me and wrapped her arms around my neck lazily hugging me and I pat her back.
"h-h-heeeeeeeey," said Violet slurring her words because of the immense alcohol consumption
"Hey, I thought I said not to get too drunk I can't drive. What are we going to do?" I questioned pulling her to the side. "Come on, let's go, Vee, I have to call mom and dad," I said grabbing her hand and trying to pull her away.
"no we have tooooo w-w-watch the fireworks, c-cooooome on," said Violet still slurring her words now dragging me out the gigantic back yard where we could see the fireworks perfectly.
someone yelled over a microphone muting the music and said "fireworks are starting in the backyard" and then everyone like a herd of elephants was walking out to the back yard to watch the fireworks.
BOOM: I jumped at the first firework that lit the sky illuminating the water with a beautiful magenta color, I hate loud sounds I thought to myself as another firework was let off and beautiful colors filled the sky. Red, purple, gold, green, orange, copper, and plenty more.
After the fireworks were over my sister was even drunker than when they started, as if that's even possible.
"co--me on Vi--o--let," I said stumbling over my words trying to get her in the car, she already puked twice on the way here and was rambling off about how I didn't have to call out parents. But it was already past my curfew, and I was only fourteen so I didn't even have a permit to drive so I think our parents are better than the police.
I got out my phone and texted my mom immediately.
Elaine: Sorry I'm late Violet is drunk and can't drive and yes I'm already in the car and the windows and doors are locked will you please pick us up?!?!?!
Mom😍: It's okay honey I understand and I'm just glad you're in the safety of the car and not trying to drive home, it is the fourth of July so there is a BUNCH of traffic me and your dad should be there soon but traffic may or may not like us. stay safe love you tell your sister the same.
After that, I put my phone down but soon after I heard the ding of my phone and it was from my dad oh no I thought, he is going to be so mad at Violet.
Dad😀: tell Violet she is in so much FUCKING trouble and is NEVER going to a party EVER AGAIN!
I tried not to flinch at the curse word. I hated them I thought.
Elaine: Dad please don't be mad at me when I say this. promise?
I texted him hopeful.
Dad😀: of course pumpkin😎
He was always nicer to me for some reason.
Elaine: you can't always control Violet she is very independent and I'm not trying to tell you or mom how to parent but maybe no parties for a month or 2 and no phone until her birthday.
Dad😀: I'll think about it
Was all he said, I knew that was his way of saying h-e double hockey sticks no.
It has been about fifteen minutes and Violet was out cold after puking out the window three times.
I was spacing out thinking about what happened with Ryder in the house, God how could I have been so stupid? I thought before I heard a knock on the window that scared the living daylights out of me, when I turned to the drivers' side window I saw that it was finally my mom and dad here to get me and Violet
I got out of the car and hugged my mom, Dad was still waiting in the car it was parked on the other side of the road. I then looked at mom then the back seat of the car giving her the sign that Violet was sleeping in the backseat and wasn't waking up any time soon so I gave her the keys to Violet's car.
"I'm going to take Violet home go get in the car with your father," said my mother pointing to my dad's new Black Escalade across the street then she kissed my forehead and whispers "don't mention Violet to your father. okay?" mom always knew that Violet and dads relationship has never been the best even before she started sneaking, having one night stands, and partying all the time it wasn't that he just hated her since she was born or anything it was just personality conflicts dad has always been a very let's get things done, right and on time with no distractions while Violet has always been a very independent you only live once kind of girl they just didn't mesh correctly.
I opened the passenger door to my dad's car and bucked up once I was settled it was silent, with a lot of traffic. I knew we wouldn't be home for awhile probably about thirty minutes when it's usually about 10 from this neighborhood so I leaned my head on the window and shut my eyes waiting for crap to hit the fan when we got home
I hoped they would wait to yell at her tomorrow I just wanted to go home and sleep. I was just so tired I don't know if I could handle the stress of them arguing tonight
Dad and I eventually stop at a really long stoplight so I lean my head against the window shutting my eyes.
I must've fallen asleep because I'm woken up by my dads car door slamming then my mother's when my mother says something to my father he doesn't seem to like it but he walked to Violet's van and picked her up and started carrying her inside my mother still watching my father with the stink eye before coming to my side of the door and saying in a soft nice voice "come on Elaine let's go"
"Are you guys going to yell at Violet tonight?" I asked groggily getting out of the car
"No honey I convinced your father to wait," said my mother in a sad voice
"thanks," I said still tired walking to the door
Once I was inside dad came down the stairs. He must've put Violet in her bed I thought to myself
"Hey, Elaine can you go to your room," asked my father looking at my mother great an argument about Violet my father and mother love each other very much and my parents have NEVER hit each other not even little hints that they would or could but they don't argue about Violet much so everything she's done since the last argument comes up, so this should be fun I thought to myself walking up to my room when I saw the mess of clothes from. I checked my watch, midnight. Yep yesterday on the dot I thought to myself I started picking up all the clothes on my hardware floor and even my bed
"SHE IS OUT OF CONTROL AND YOU KNOW IT ELEANOR" Yelled my father as I jumped at the outburst
"yes Jason I know that but do you even still love her I mean she is your daughter your own flesh in blood and you can't even look her in the eyes," My mom said a little quieter in a nasty matter-of-fact tone
After all, my scattered clothes were picked up and put away in their proper places which was at about twelve-thirty and I was now deathly tired and felt like collapsing so I turned on my white fan, got in my bed and pulled my teal covers over me ready for sleep I closed my eyes and drifted to sleep not ready for the sun to rise the next day.
That morning I woke up to Violet yelling something couldn't decipher from upstairs. I looked at the clock it read 8:00 Am I got up and quickly got dressed in whatever I could find to go downstairs and hopefully help de-escalate this situation I walked downstairs quickly after throwing on some random clothes when I got downstairs and dad said to Violet "I don't give a shit how old you are as long as you are under this roof you live by mine and your mother's rules understood" I almost flinched at the cuss word, but refrained myself
"well good thing I won't be much longer because I am, and you can't stop me moving to North Carolina, Chapel Hill to pursue my dream and become a geologist, and do not give me the bull shit on you don't have enough fucking money because I got a FULL ride fucking scholarship and already found a job and house and I'm moving is two to three weeks so bye dad wish you loved me," Said Violet before walking out of the house with her keys
This day is going to be fun I thought to myself
*Ryder point of view* The morning of the party and at the party
I walked out of the police station God I hate police I thought to myself as I started walking home one mile to go I said in my head
I finally got home and saw that Oscar Ballinger's car I was expecting my mom to either be super hungover or still sleeping it off on the couch but no she is in there with fucking Oscar Ballinger the stupid attorney who even thought for a second my mom could handle having custody of me after five years, and in between using cocaine, and now all she does is drink can barely pay rent, we don't have any power only a house and water she even has to walk to work while she's hungover I thought to my self angrily as I swung my front door open already fuming
"what the fuck you couldn't pick me up from the police station but you can wait for twenty minutes for me to walk home" I yelled at my mother Oscar still sitting there
"Are you still taking your pills, honey," asked my mom nicely touching her pure blonde hair despite my outburst which just angered me more: her trying to play perfectly mom
"do not try to play perfect mom you know damn good and well I don't and you don't give a shit about me or my well being" I hollered at my mother before walking to my room punching a wall leaving a matching hole next to the other one
"Ryder you know that's not true" called my mom looking at me with those same blue-grey eyes that matched mine.
"what the fuck ever" I yelled now locking my door.
I needed to blow off some steam, I called Jax wondering what was going on tonight he picked up the phone and I said: "hey dude I need to blow off steam, my mom pissed me off again, Anything going on tonight?"
"Like what?" asked Jax
"I don't fucking know, what about that annual fourth of July party is that still happening," I asked curtly
"yeah dude you wanna go" asked Jax always asking questions I thought
"yeah I wanna go I wouldn't ask about if I didn't wanna go now would I," I said curtly again
"Okay okay I'll pick you up tonight at 10 with Jake," said Jax before hanging up.
DINGGG
I looked at my phone it said one text from Jax. I groaned but opened the text
Jax: I'll be there in 10
I texted back a short reply
Ryder: k
I went to my closet and grabbed a pair of jeans and a white T-Shirt then I looked in the mirror, I looked a lot more like my dad than my mom who was fully Russian and spoke the language fluently just as I do; I may not particularly like my mother but I hadn't seen my father since I was five and I despised him for what he's done.
I walked out of my room to see my bitch of a mom was waiting for me.
"so how long have you been practicing that perfect mother act for Oscar," I asked angrily
"Does it really matter and you're lucky because he agreed to try to lessen your sentence and we won't know the real outcome until about a month now go somewhere I'm going out tonight, no work tomorrow," said my mom before walking out of the house
"God damn it! " I hollered before walking out of my house to wait for jackass one and jackass two
I waited for about two minutes before I saw their car pulling up by the curb I got in and didn't bother buckling up
"Hey, dude," said Jake and Jax at the same time with happy smiles on their faces. God damn twins I thought to myself
"fuck off," I said looking out the window ready to get drunk and blow off some steam at this stupid annual fourth of July party
we got there about 10 minutes later and I quickly got out of the car without saying anything to the twins, we were an hour late but I knew all the girls would be all over me which meant some for me and I couldn't complain like they say sex is a basic need.
I walked in ready for some strong beer I spotted one of the kegs in the middle of the living room and grabbed a red solo cup filling it up to the brim already chugging half of it before filling it up again before walking to the kitchen where I found a girl well... woman with dark brown wavy hair that goes just down to her waist dancing outside in the backyard and for a split second thought about fucking her tonight but she's not the usual type I usually go for the dumb blonde ones. I walked into the kitchen and spotted one and she looked at me then walked towards me while I started smirking and once she made it to me she said with a slutty smirk "you wanna dance"
"hell yeah," I said, pulling her to the dance floor and we started grinding on each other until we started kissing her then I stopped then I whispered before walking away "find me tonight, and I'll show you a good time and feel free to bring any of your girlfriends to"
I went to stand at the doorway by the kitchen I stood there for a while occasionally telling a girl she was sexy or a good old fashioned whistle before I felt something hit my back angry I quickly turned around noticing it was a girl that couldn't even be sixteen on the ground she got up and was met with my eyes before she said "I'm so sorry" but I was still angry because my drink also went everywhere.
"what the hell" I yelled nobody could hear me over the loud music and the ones that could just walked away
she mumbled "s-s-s-sorry" looking terrified and it even looked like there were tears in her eyes
I have no clue why I loosened up on her, but I did I was still mad though "just get the hell away from me and keep it that way," I replied then with that she walked away and I sighed going to get a new drink.
I decided it was late enough to have a little fun so I looked for that blonde and once I found her I said "wanna have some fun"
"hell yeah," she said leading me upstairs I don't know how long we were at it before we both laid down sweaty and out of breath and soon enough we both fell asleep.
I woke up at about 5:00 Am so I quickly and quietly put my clothes on not wanting to wake the slut I fucked last night yeah it was good but I didn't want to deal with her being whiny or clingy. After my clothes were on I knew at least one of the twins most likely had a one night stand as well and I was right because I got a call from Jake, not a second later
"Hey dude can you pick me up I scored a girl last night," said Jake with a sigh
"I would but sadly I'm walking out of the house looking at you standing in the front yard," I said cockily before hanging up
"so what are we gonna do," asked, Jake
"well we could call your clone," I said referring to Jax
"fine but he's not gonna be happy," said Jake grabbing his phone calling his brother
His brother pulled up by the curb looking pissed off and super hungover "you two get the fuck in the car now"
"told you," said Jack smacking my back walking to the car me following
the ride was silent with a few exchanges of words like was it good asked by Jax and both me and Jake's answers were, yeah sure
I finally saw my house came into view and I sighed as we pulled up into my driveway that would never hold anything but my black motorcycle, I got out of the car mumbling a "thanks"
I walked into my house and saw my mom passed out on the couch, I tried waking her up by snapping in her face and clapping but nothing worked so I picked her up carried her to her bedroom and laid her down then walking to my room locking the door collapsing on my bed ready for more sleep with a headache that wasn't going away any time soon.
