Chapter 1: the Party - Spin

I’m at this lame-ass college party with my crew, talking to this dweeb of a guy named Kyle who goes to the mechanic's tech school with a few guys from my gang. He’s asking about getting a job at my shop! I’ve seen him around and his work on my vehicles is official, so I entertained his presence. That is until a girl gets bumped into and stumbles into the kitchen we are standing in!

She’s tiny yet beautiful, despite her flaming hot pink hair! Her hazel eyes and buttoned nose suit her lush lips and high cheekbones. She’s curvy, and the midriff tee she’s wearing does nothing to conceal it. A pink heart dangles from her belly button and the black jeans she’s wearing hug her like a second skin. She’s wearing heels, yet still barely reaches my shoulder!

“Lala”, Kyle says, and she looks around the room and smiles when she makes eye contact with him.

“Kyle”, she says as he wraps her in his arms and twirls her around. Jealousy rages in me and I just want to pop his head off his shoulders. No way she’s his girl? Despite being a dweeb, I’ve seen him at parties, he’s a man whore!

“Still beautiful”, he tells her, causing her cheeks to blush as pink as her hair. “Want a drink”?

“Nah! I’m good with water”, she says as she locks eyes with me. She shakes her head and looks down at the floor before saying, “seen Meme? She ditched me”! I know Meme is Kyle’s slut of a high school sister. He’s always complaining about her to my boys as he works on my bikes and cars. Is this beauty still in high school?!

“Probably went up to the bedrooms”, he tells her and she rolls her eyes, knowingly agreeing with him.

“Well I’m not chasing after her”, she says in response, causing Kyle to laugh. “I’m going to get some air, if you see Meme tell her I went out to the pier”.

“You got it, Lala, don’t get too close to the edge”, he says to her almost as a warning!

She smirks back at him and says, “yes, big brother! I won’t”. Then she turns and leaves out the back door.

I turned my attention back to Kyle who was still staring after her as she walked the short distance down to the pier. “Who was that”? I ask as casually as I can without seeming interested.

He looks at me confused and says, “who? Lala”?

“That girl’s name is not really Lala, c’mon man! Who is she?” I pushed into him.

“Her name is Loyalty, but don’t call her that, ever! It’s Lala and she is my neighbor’s foster child. They’ve had her for a long time now though, and she’s been friends with my little sister since elementary school, although I can’t understand why because they’re nothing alike”, he says. “I’ve had a crush on her for years but she won’t even give me the time of day”.

“You’re her best friend’s older brother”, I told him. “That’s like against their code and shit”! There was a loud commotion from the pier, and then a splash from just outside the back door.

“Where is she?” Kyle yells. “Where the fuck is she”?

“I think she’s been knocked into the water”, I said, not seeing her on the pier any longer.

“Shit, she can’t swim”, he yells, and we both take off toward the end of the pier where a guy is pulling another guy out of the water.

“Where’s the girl?” I shouted as Kyle shined his phone’s flashlight into the water.

“There”, he says as he illuminates her fluorescent hair with the light. I hand him my phone, keys, and wallet, then kick off my sneakers before diving into the water.

When I reached her, she stopped flailing, so I easily wrapped my arm around her tiny waist and pulled her to the surface. As soon as her head is above the water, she gasps loudly and chokes out the water still in her mouth. I pat her back and she locks eyes with me before panting out a thank you, and faints in my arms!

Great! Now, what the fuck am I going to do? She’s lightweight, so I lift her so her face is over my shoulder and swim back to the pier with her. She smells like a melon salad, and despite the current situation, it’s soothing. Kyle and his sister lift her out of the water as he belittles her for being a piece of shit friend and ditching her to be a whore! His sister was in tears when I cut in and told them, “she was conscious when I got to her, I think she just fainted from shock”.

Kyle’s sister is dressed almost identically to Loyalty, except she looks like a skank in the outfit. She drags her friend’s unconscious body across the pier and Kyle helps me out of the freezing lake water. “You have to take us home Kyle”, his sister cries.

“Are you fucking nuts right now Meme?”, he yells back. “She lives next door… I’m not facing Maxine and Kevin! How would you want me to explain why I’m carrying her unconscious wet body into our house”?

Loyalty stirs and gasps in her unconscious state, and Meme sobs in relief over the girl. “I’ll take her home”, I blurted out.

“Yeah, that’ll go over real well with her foster parents”, Kyle retorts.

“No you idiot”, I chided back. “I’ll take her home to my house so her foster parents don’t see her. I’m freezing and soaked, I need to go anyway”.

“What about her foster parents in the morning?” Meme says.

“Wasn’t she supposed to stay for the weekend though, because they are going somewhere tomorrow night?” Kyle asks her.

“What are they gonna say if they see me and you tomorrow, but not her, Kyle?”, she states angrily.

“Do you know the pin to unlock her phone?” I asked Meme.

She snorts and says, “of course I do, she’s my best friend”!

“Text her foster parents from her phone and tell them you’re all staying at the lake house because your brother is too drunk to drive home. It’ll look like she’s being responsible”, I told her. “Then you three crash with me tonight”!

“That’s totally believable actually! Lala is always the most level-headed out of the three of us anyway”, Meme says. “She left her bag in the car”!

“You sure you're cool with us all staying at your place, Spin?” Kyle asks. I’d rather it just be the girl, but if she’s a packaged deal for the night, then it is what it is!

“Yeah”, I say. “But can we get a move on? I’m fucking freezing. Grab my shit”, I tell Kyle as I lift Loyalty into my arms and head for my Hummer. Some of my crew saw me walking up the pier dripping wet with this girl in my arms and start jogging over.

“Oh shit, Lala! You heading out”, says Gabe, recognizing the girl in my arms.

“Yeah”, I told him. “Grab the door, and make sure those two fuck-boys at the end of the pier leave the party in body bags”.

“Yes sir”, he salutes me as he opens the passenger door so I can put Loyalty in. “I’ll catch a ride back with Bren and Danny”, he says before running off.

Kyle follows behind me to my house, and I drive blasting heat on Loyalty, whose lips have taken on a wicked purple color. I pull right up to the front door, and as I walked into the house, I told one of the broads littering my living room to get someone to park my truck. She leaps from the sofa and runs out back as Kyle and Meme follow me up the stairs.

Meme is carrying a bright pink bag over her shoulder and drops it down on my bed. I raise a brow at her and she says, “what? She travels light”!

“Get me something dry for her”, I tell her and she digs around in the bag. “Forget it, just get me dry underwear, can you do that”? She glares at me, and hands me what looks like a lacy piece of pink floss! “What the?” I start to question as Meme bursts into a fit of laughter. “I said underwear, not thread”, I told her.

“That is her underwear”, Meme says through her laughter.

“And what the fuck is this covering?” I said as Meme only laughed harder. “Forget it, Kyle, get a tee out of the top drawer over there on your left and ask one of the old ladies if their kids have a pair of shorts I can borrow. She’s so fucking small that she would probably fit into someone’s kid’s clothes”.

He tosses me the shirt and says, “on it”! I wait until I hear the door click shut behind him before I lift her shirt off over her head.

“What are you doing?” Meme shrieks as she covers Loyalty with her own body.

I shove her back where she lands on the floor on her ass, “making sure she doesn’t get hypothermia! Now cool your tits”! Meme watches me as I slide my shirt over her head before unsnapping Loyalty’s bra and sliding it off. I unbutton her jeans next and slide them down her legs, before gliding my hands up her silky thighs to her hip and hooking my fingers into the thin band of her panties, then sliding them down too. Meme keeps her eyes fixed on me as I work to keep Loyalty covered. I toss the sorry excuse of underwear aside and scoop her back up. “Pull back that blanket for me so I can get her warm”, I tell Meme, and she looks at me skeptically but does it anyway. This will be a first. Never had anyone spent a night in my bed with me. Always use one of the spare beds to fuck in and send them on their way!

“What about her bottom half?” Meme chuckles as I scoop up her wet clothes.

“That’s why I sent your brother on a wild goose chase while I changed her, just in case I misjudged my movement”, I told her.

“Why would you care? He’s known Lala since she was like nine or ten”, she says.

“Do you really not know your brother is crushing on your bestie?” I said to her, amused!

Again she snorts at me, “not surprised! Everyone crushes on Lala”!

I stood there observing the girl, whose tone lacks jealousy at this knowledge. “And how does Loyalty feel about her many admirers?” I asked her.

“Lord, he did not tell you her name! Ugh'', she says. “Lala can give two shits to anyone who is into her. As her name implies, loyalty is everything! Nobody but Travis has ever been good enough for her, and I dunno why, he’s as big of a pig as the rest of the football team is. The only difference is, he doesn’t do his dirt local”!

“Ever told her that?” I asked.

“Yup! But she doesn’t believe it”, she says. “So I will be the good friend that I am, and I stay out of it”!

“Ain’t you worried about him giving her something?” I asked her.

“Well, unless you can catch diseases through immaculate conception, then no”, she chuckles.

“Wait! What?” I ask her.

“Yeah! My half-naked friend in your bed over there is a virgin”, she says and bursts into another fit of laughter.

“No way”, I said. “She’s too fucking hot for that shit”.

“Yeah she is”, Meme agrees. “Doesn’t change the fact that she is though”!

I start to undress myself now and Meme looks at me like I’m crazy, “what?! You're in my room! Turn the fuck around if you don’t want to see”!

Meme scoffs and turns around. I’m sliding my sweatpants on as Kyle walks back into the room, “sorry man. Your house is huge! I can’t find anyone”.

“It’s fine! I just put her in my clothes for now”, I said as I glanced back to see that Loyalty’s lips had returned to a nice pale shade of pink. I open the closet and pull out extra blankets and pillows and hand them to them! “If you wanna stay in here, that’s fine. But the two rooms across the hall have empty beds you can stay in”.

They both glanced at each other and then back at me before saying in unison, “we’re staying”! What do they think I’d do to their unconscious friend whose life I just saved tonight? I smirk and throw my hands up in mock surrender before walking to my bed.

“You’re not sleeping in your bed with her! She’ll lose her mind when she wakes up”, says Meme.

“Well, maybe you should have been a better friend so she wouldn’t have ended up at the bottom of a lake tonight, and wouldn’t wake up in my bed with me tomorrow”, I tell her as I climb in. She glares at me as her brother pulls her over to where he’s laid out the blankets and pillows for her. “Don’t worry, I’m not into PDA. If I was going to be inappropriate with your friend, I assure you that you wouldn’t still be here”!

“Don’t be a dick”, Kyle tells Meme. “Why does it matter where he sleeps? We’re all in the same room”!

“Fine”, she says. “But when she shrieks in the morning, you calm her ass down”! They have a mini stare-down before they both separate from each other and lay down. I use my remote to turn the lights in the room down and not off, just in case she does wake up in the middle of the night, she’ll be able to see her friends!

The smell of her is so soothing and she’s snoring lightly. I wrap my arms around her and pull her tiny figure into me. I just want to have her forever, this girl needs to be with me! I doze off to sleep, wrapped around her like the snake in the dark that I am!
