days like these lead to nights like this || stacy and you

Stumbling down the main walkway into school, Stacy held onto her bottle of wine with a white knuckled grip. She was sore from a rough encounter in the bathroom of the club she had gone to by herself, and kicked herself every second of the way back home. She should have known better than to approach the older, much drunker man in the place, and was in over her head as he chatted her up. She lived for the thrill of it though, and allowed him to slam her up against the sink and the wall and the mirror. Finally, after he'd shagged her raw, he managed to slip away while he was ordering them drinks. Stace muttered to herself in French, berating herself for being so silly. She'd worry more about everything in the morning, but at the moment, she was just trying to find the dorms. Someone was walking down the path towards her, and she took a sidestep to get out of their way, but tripped on the edge of the sidewalk. The blonde spun haphazardly and fell over onto the grass, spilling Pinot noir on the ground, giggling drunkenly.

Aiden’s head tipped back and he groaned, “Yes, if you’re offering.” He twisting to face her a little, “It’s been like, three days since my last joint what with the plane and getting here and then the teachers were hanging around tryna show me around the dorms and all that.” He moaned, it was usually a daily routine, at least on the one his dad wasn’t hanging around harassing him about it.

[stacyego-blog]

Stacy just stared at the boy while he talked, finding that she didn’t care much at all as to why he hadn’t had any in a while. Instead of responding to him, the blonde just stood up, shouldered her purse, and started walking toward the girl’s dorms. Maybe he’d catch on, or maybe he’d just think she was being incredibly rude. She couldn’t care any less at his choice, though it was nice to have someone to smoke with.

“Ah,” Aiden let out a big breath and went over to her, sitting on the back of the bench with his feet beside her. “Well it looks like you’re all I need.” He let out a boisterous laugh and rested his hands beside him on the wood. Aiden looked around grinning, he’d done well considering she was the first person he’d talked to and he already had a possible dealer.

[stacyego-blog]

Stacy looked at the boy with heavy lids, and watched as he sat down on the back of the bench beside her. “Yes, it appears that way,” she gave a coy grin and tapped her fingers on the arm rest of the bench. “Need a high now, or something?” The blonde asked, leaning forward, elbows resting on her knees as she looked over her shoulder back at him. “I could hook you up for now.”

“Doubt he’d know how to,” Lola scoffed, thinking any girl to actually go through with it with him were mad. He was amusing though, sometimes, easy to wind up and that was always entertaining for Lola. “Pretty good. Up there in the good bits of my school experience.” She said nodding, glad that Stacy seemed to be happy with it rather than disgusted like she imagined some would be. He deserved it, after all.

[stacyego-blog]

Stacy huffed a laugh, “oh, he should be so lucky.” The blonde shook her head, ready to move on from the subject. He talked enough about himself, he didn’t need any more help with getting his name out in the world. “I bet. I would’ve liked to see that,” she added, despite her desire to talk about something new. 

[aidencricket-blog]

Aiden laughed loudly before shaking his head, “Nah, nah not looking to get murdered in an alley.” He leaned in a bit closer to be discreet, and to get closer to her. “Looking for weed love, and anything harder if they’ve got it.” He’d taken a chance telling her, but then, there was no way she was a cop and he doubted she’d rat him out considering how quickly she’d shown her bedroom.

[stacyego-blog]

“Weed?” Stacy arched a brow at the boy, slightly amused. “Well, I’ve got weed,” she told him, sitting back against the garden bench she’d been people watching from. “Might have kept the number of the guy who sold it to me,” Stace added, looking out at a sickeningly sweet couple walking down the path on the other side of the statues.

“Skeevier, dodgy, rough, dangerous, somewhere I could pick something up..?”

“Oh,” Stacy nodded in understanding. “Well, if you want danger, I suggest the alley between the bowling alley and the Blue Corn Moon tattoo shop in town. I heard that someone being mugged there last week,” the blonde gave a crooked smirk, looking up at the boy from under her fringe. “Don’t suppose you’re talking about literal danger, though? What’re you looking for?”

Lola pulled another face, the idea of him like that was disgusting but also hilarious. She could imagine him expecting worship. “Ah, just in need of a screw then? Been there.” Lola laughed, she’d probably been with people far worse then Eugene in the long run, but he was so irritating that it seemed worse at the minute . Lola cackled when Stacy stopped in her tracks, turning around to walk backwards in front of the blonde. “Oh yeah, brilliant isn’t it?” She grinned widely, so happy that the reaction she’d wanted had come forward so easily. “Oh yes, our poor little king.” Lola had known from the start he’d been grasping at straws to seem like he was popular, that she was wrong. Stacy had proven her right, and she was glad. “What a dick. Punched him in the face the first time I met him.” 

[stacyego-blog]

“Yes, any niceness he took for friendship was supposed to be charming enough for him to throw me down and take me, but that boy,” Stacy rolled her eyes. “Sorted me out anyway; after that, I couldn’t have been more turned off,” the blonde added, as if needing to make up for the past with callousness. “Me and him: friends? No. Never.” She shuddered again, and then continued on the path. “Punched him, huh? And how was that as an experience for you?” Stace laughed, wishing that she’d been there to see it.

[aidencricket-blog]

“Well I’ll definitely be using that last one, often, but I was hoping for the skeevier parts of town.”

[stacyego-blog]

“I’m sure you will, but…” Stacy frowned slightly, wracking her brains for the word and meaning, and felt her confidence slipping. “Skeevier?” She repeated, her French lilt hovering on the question. “I don’t know that word.”

[aidencricket-blog]

Right love, gonna show me around?

[stacyego-blog]

“Café is over there, library is down that path, classrooms are in that direction, and my bedroom is that top window over there.” Stacy nodded to her dorm pointedly before turning back to the boy and staring him head on.

“That would be kind of awesome though, I think I’d like that. Maybe I’ll take her on, if she isn’t actually kind of cool.” She shrugged, but inwardly let herself feel kind of excited about it. Going up against Hades? It would be the ultimate adrenaline rush, and what a thrill it would be. She made note to look out for the daughter of the Greek God, and hoped she was some sort of bitch. “Oh god,” Lola grimaced, shaking her head and laughing at the idea of anyone fucking the boy. “You know it would be the worst sex of your life right? All he’d care about would be getting himself off, probably would only last like three minutes cause it’s all me me me with him. And of course, we all have to serve the king.” Lola pretended to barf and shuddered. “You know he thinks you two are like best friends right?”

[stacyego-blog]

Stacy just laughed when the girl said that it would be awesome. She knew that historically speaking that Hades wasn’t necessarily a bad guy, but he was king of the underworld. Spooky. “Yeah, glad that didn’t escalate. It was when we were in France, and he was in the next room over. Would have been very convenient, but that’s about it,” the blonde laughed again, shaking her head, and shivering slightly at the thought of how close she’d come to actually trying to go through with it. With the information that Eugene thought of her as a friend made her freeze up. “You’re joking,” she stated, and started walking again, realizing that she’d stopped momentarily. “That is very sad.” For a moment, Stacy actually did feel sorry for the boy. Someone  didn’t talk down to him for ten minutes, and he thinks that they’re friends? “I mean, I wasn’t excessively terrible to him, but it’s not like we bonded over my scarves that he tossed around.”

“That’s something.” Lola muttered in disgust, tutting at their roommates being there at all. “Does she act all that then? Like ‘ooh don’t mess with me cause my parents are powerful’” She put on a stuck up voice and even though she didn’t know Talia at all, she decided she didn’t like her. “I don’t know who Mitch is. Don’t really care. Haven’t actually asked anyone about that shit. Like, this whole place encourages these do nothing kids to live off their parents’ shitty achievements. Fucking pointless, and that’s how you get dickheads like Eugene Whatshisface.” 

[stacyego-blog]

“Not really, no,” Stacy replied. “We don’t really talk much, which is fine. Don’t know that I’d do too well with Hades as an enemy, so I think it’s best that way,” she grinned. Stace nodded as the girl talked, agreeing completely. She might have been being a bit hypocritical in thinking that parents shouldn’t give their parents everything they asked for, as she often got everything she wanted from her father. Well, almost everything; she could barely get three words out of him on a good day. The girl’s eyes widened when Lola mentioned Eugene. “Oh god, so you’ve met him? The wannabe king?” She asked, giving a cynical laugh. “Tried to get off with him, actually,” she mentioned carelessly. “Until he started talking.” Stacy added with a smirk, shaking her head. “Ridiculous boy.”

“It’s fucking ridiculous!” Lola exclaimed all of a sudden, glad that she was getting another chance to vent her frustrations with the school. “Right? Like the place is huge, bet they’re hiding hundreds of empty rooms around the place and just want us to ‘bond’ or some shite like that.” She scoffed, glancing back at her door a moment. Her roommate didn’t talk to her often, thankfully. “Some girl named Mitch? I made it clear when she moved in that I did not want to talk to her.” She took the door and headed through, shaking her hair back behind her. “You?” 

[stacyego-blog]

Stacy rolled her eyes again, finding herself get more irritated with the school than she had been before. “Probably,” she replied bitterly. “Talia. She’s alright; I never see her, so it’s almost like not having a roommate, but still.” Ego shrugged, walking along the path toward the woods that they could cut through to the town. “I think she’s the daughter of one of the Greek gods, if you can believe that. I looked her up when I got the information on who I was rooming with. She seems it, too,” she commented. She wouldn’t admit to being scared of the girl, but her eyes did give her chills.

“I am right, we’ll clean up.” She grinned darkly, like she had some crazy plan whirring inside her head. Lola imagined they could split up for a bit, and Lola could con a couple of guys on one side of the bar while Stace did the same on the other saying their friend would be there shortly. Piece of cake. “People are the worst. I can’t believe I have to share a room. I’m twenty one for fucks sake.” Lola complained, leaving the room and scuffing her foot on the floor, momentarily going into a mood about having to share anything with anyone without choice. She walked down the hall, and kicked her own door in passing. “That’s me there.” 

[stacyego-blog]

“I know!” Stacy replied with a bit of venom. She was a bit spoiled back home, with her own bedroom and being able to do whatever she wanted with her walls and decorations. There wasn’t anything wrong with her roommate, in fact, they got on quite well. With the sole reason of that being because she never seemed to see her. “You’d think with all of this ‘Disney Magic’,” Stacy air quoted the words with exasperation. “That they’d be able to give us all our own rooms,” she rolled her eyes. “Nice,” she nodded at the door. “Who’ve you been matched with, then?” Stace asked, opening the outside door and holding it for Lola to take.

[lolahowlett-blog]

Lola cackled at the story and when Stace came out she took hold of her chin, “That is so brilliant and I am very proud of you Blondie.” She laughed again as she turned away and went for the door. She was so glad that someone at this school was on her level. Lola even wondered if she could switch roommates. “Actually, you know we may not need to steal if there are any punters at the bar. They’d probably just buy them for us.”

[stacyego-blog]

“You know, I think you’re right,” Stacy gave a grin. It was almost guaranteed that there were a couple poor sods that would probably even offer to buy them whatever they wanted. She’d always liked the idea of having a sugar daddy. There was just the whole business of at least pretending that she cared for them that put her off. “If I wasn’t so sick of people, I might suggest we pick up a couple guys and have them take us to dinner. I’m sick of cafeteria and fast food,” Stacy muttered, thinking of the Taco Bell she’d eaten for supper the past couple of days. Exiting the room, Stace locked up after Lola, dropping her keys into her bag. Even though she’d just had a little gin, Stacy couldn’t wait to get to the bar, and could feel herself getting a little anxious about the whole ordeal. Though she wouldn’t appear it outwardly, she’d be so embarrassed if she got turned away in front of her new…acquaintance.
