Chapter 4 Rock

"Are you all moved in, bud?" Mom asks when she walks into the room- that is now mine over at the Darby's house.

"Yea, I have a few things to unpack." I look around my room and I have all my posters on the wall, and I've removed the stuffy old sheets and comforter that was on the queen size bed. The guys and I went out and bought some more. That was more my style with the credit card Jim gave me. How fucking cool is that I have a credit card and his own daughter has to work for her own money on top of school and doing what she does for the team.

"Loser!"

"That's good to know, mom says. Well, I'm going to head out. I've got to work the night shift at the hospital tonight."

"Hey mom, do you still have to work two jobs now that you are marrying Jim?" I ask her.

"No, probably not, but I like my jobs."

"Okay, it's just that you work so hard."

"I'm not marrying Jim for his money, son. Your brother's staying at a friend's tonight. River and Jessica are working in Jessica's room. Then River has to work, so Jessica's going with her. You're on your own for dinner."

"Where's Jim going to be tonight?"

"Oh, he is out of town until next weekend."

"All right, well, I'm going to call Speedy and the guys to come over."

"Only them... mom says."

"Yes, ma'am." I say, but I have my fingers crossed behind my back. She will never be the wiser.

Once Mom's gone, I walk down the hall to where my sisters' room is and peek my head in to see what's going on in her room. "Looks nice," I announce after a minute of watching them.

"Thanks," my sister says, and I have the satisfaction of seeing water girl stiffen up.

"Jessica, we need to get going soon, so I'm going to go get ready for work." River tells my sister.

"Okay, I'll be waiting for you here."

River goes to walk out of Jessica's door, so I make it tight for her to squeeze through. When she does, she brushes up against my front parts and it sends a shock through my body. "Damn, even my body doesn't like you water, girl." I whisper in her ear as she makes it through. "Oh, hey water girl, get on a diet. You're looking a little chubby there. I would hate for people to oink at you."

"Rock, that is enough." Jessica scolds me.

"What River knows I'm just picking on her. Don't you Riv?"

River just walks to her room without a word or even a backward glance my way.

Jessica is scolding me for being so mean to little oh River as I'm walking back to my room to get ready to go out with the guys and get some stuff for the party. Once I'm dressed, I head out to my truck and down to the beach where Damion lives.

Damion's family is one of the richer families, other than Mr. Darby the different is. Damion's family seeks big and glamorous things, while Mr. Darby seeks big and money.

"Sup bitch." Damion greets me as I'm walking up onto his front porch.

"Sup fucker. So, stepdad dearest is out of town this week and mom is working the night shift tonight. I'm thinking of a massive party at the house."

"Fuck yea brother. Let's gather the boys and get this show started, then." Damion shouts, fist bumping the air as he jumps off his porch like a five-year-old.

"And that, my friend, is why you get no pussy, I tell him."

Damion just gives me his famous go fuck yourself look and we are off to find the other guys for our venture to find things for the party. Once we locate everyone, we set off to get food and booze for the night.

Speedy makes a post on his social media page that there is a party happening tonight and the address. That boy has every fucking person in our school on his media page and more, so this party will be lit.

"So, what is River going to say about this party at her house." Brody ask.

I punch his ass in the arm for that shit. "Bro, that house is just as much mine as it is that bitches now, so let her say something. I will just lock her little ass up in her bedroom for the night."

Brody doesn't seem to be happy with my answer, but asks me if I give two shits. Hmm nope.

We head back to the house once we have everything we need. Speedy and I unpack the keg from the back of the truck while the other guys get the food and shit out and carry it all in the house. Let's take the keg to the back porch. We barely get everything set up before people pile in twos and threes at a time.

By 8:30, the party is in full swing. People are drinking, dancing, talking and just having a blast. I've never hosted a party at my house before. It's always been at other people's homes, so I'm pretty pumped up about this. And an add on bonus is seeing Rivers face when she comes home to see a shit ton of people at her house. I wonder if she will rat me out to her father, and what would he say to her? I can't do shit wrong in that fucker's eye. Amy and her friends are coming towards me and I really want to go the other way. I'm exhausted of her shit and the clinginess has gotten worse since she knows I have money now. But fuck my friend, that pussy is goood. And who else am I going to get to suck my dick and not have to return the favor.

"Rock! There you are. I've been looking for you for over an hour. I need a drink. My glass is empty."

"So, go to the keg and get you another drink, Amy." She looks at me like I've lost my mind. Like she is too good to get herself a drink.

"Hey Amy," I think we need to go to my bedroom and talk for a minute, I tell her.

"Awe baby, do you need some attention?"

"Yeah, something like that." I say and start walking toward the bedroom. As I'm walking up the stairs, I run through my head about what I'm going to say to her and how I'm going to make it seem like it was her idea. I know this will not go very well at first, but I think if I spin it just right we can remain friends and she will walk right down to that party and find her a guy to take to one of the bedrooms and suck the hell out of his dick and forget all about me. That's what she's done the last hundred times we have broken up over the years.

We make it to the bedroom and before I know it, she's down on her knees fixing to work on my jeans. I should let her give me a good working over before we get down to the real reason. I brought her up here, but I'm not that big of a dick just yet. "Whoa Amy, I brought you up here to talk for real girl. "

"Ah, Rock, you're not going to try to propose to me, are you, baby? I just don't think we are old enough just yet."

"Fuck No!"

"Are we breaking up again?"

Damn, score one for her. "Yes, I think you are getting bored with me and let's face it Amy, we are fixing to be heading to college in about five months. There's a possibility of meeting new people and finding your forever. You don't want to go through the breakup stage as you're trying to fall in love with someone else, now do you?"

"James Donald Martinez, you are a terrible human being. You think you can just throw people's feelings around like they are rag dolls. Well, I have news for you, buddy. You can take your damn. We are going to college soon speech and shove it so far up your ass you will shit the words for weeks. But you have one thing right, I was getting bored with you and I have had my eyes on someone else for a while, so maybe this was a blessing. But mark my words, ROCK, your new piece of ass will never be as good as me."

Well, fuck me. That didn't go how I pictured it going. Oh, well. When I make my way back downstairs as promised, Amy is talking to another dude. Fuck its Brody. Oh boy, this will not end well. His weird ass is into River.

I lose track of Amy and Brody, so I walk over to where Speedy and the guys are standing around drinking and shooting the shit. "What are you fuckers up to... why aren't you fucking some pussy right about now?"

"We were just wondering the same thing about you right now. Why is yours trying to hang all over Brody right now instead of you?"

"Because she is not my girl anymore." Damion arches a brow at that tidbit of information. "So, you finally broke up with the witch?"

"Yep."

"About damn time brother," Damion says.

I have a few drinks in me by the time I make it outside to the porch, so I sit down on the lounge chair that's sitting by the pool in the backyard. I see that girl that hangs out with water girl. What's her name? Sydney. "Yo Sydney girl, come talk to me." I yell at her from across the lawn and she gives me the biggest go to hell look. But she stomps her way toward me. Once she reaches me, she has her hand on her hips and glaring at me.

"What in Sam's hell do you think you are doing at my friend's house? You cannot just have parties anytime you feel like it. It will be her ass, not yours, that gets in trouble." Sydney yells at me.

"And?"

"And! Of course, you don't care if she gets into trouble. Why do you make her life such hell? What's she done to you?"

"She stole my life."

"What in the hell is that supposed to mean? She didn't ask to be born to an asshole dad and a mom that couldn't handle being in her life. Is that the life you're so mad you didn't get?"

Well, when she puts it like that... It makes me feel like a dickhead. Kind of, but not really. My mom and Mr. Jim dated in high school, but once they moved on to college. Jim and Rivers' mom went to the same school and my mom and dad went to another school and they all fell in love with each other. My mom and her mom were best friends and remained friends even after that betrayal. Even though my mom says she and my dad fell in love way before Jim and Rivers' mom fell in love. But hey I guess it all worked out my mom's about to marry Jim after all. But it's still so fucking fun to torment her.

After a minute, I look up and see Sydney's ass walking away. Well, damn, I was going to fuck her. I've got to get up and go after her now. "Hey Sydney, wait up" I say, chasing after her when I see her walking out of the backyard from the gate.

"What do you want, James?"

Oh, damn, it's James now instead of Rock. Once I reach her, I wrap my hand around her arm and pull her close to the fence, trapping her body between the fence and my body. "I wanted to talk to you about what you have on underneath your jeans." I told her.

"Get the fuck off me James or I will make sure you never use your little dick again." She tells me and pushes my ass to the ground. Damn, I think I'm in love.

"You know you want me, Sydney."

"About as much as I want to fuck a dog." She yells at me, and I scrunch my nose. Girl, you need a hobby.

Sydney growls in frustration and walks off to her car. "Hey, are you running off to tell the water girl I'm having a party?" She just gives me the finger and leaves.

I laugh and go back to the party.

"Where the hell did you run off to?" Brody asks me.

"Well, shit boy.... why you out here asking me where I've been shouldn't you be up in one of the bedrooms fucking Amy?"

Brody looks at me all confused. "You know about her coming over there and asking me to go upstairs and talk to her?"

"Yea. She said she was interested in someone else when I broke up with her. I didn't know it was you, though."

"Man, you know how I feel about River. I wouldn't do that to her, and you really shouldn't be doing this either."

"Your ass doesn't seem to mind drinking the fucking beers, Brody."

"News flash man I haven't touched a drink. I'm too busy making sure this place doesn't get too out of hand while your ass gets drunk off your face."

"I didn't ask you to be my babysitter. How much do I owe you for a job not done?"

"Fuck off man, I came out here to tell you we have a problem. There are cops at the door because someone called in a noise complaint."

"Fucking Sydney."

Shit. This can't be good. I walk into the house, making my way to the front door. "Hello officers, what can I do you this fine evening?"

"Starters son, you can start by telling me where the homeowner is and why you're in their house on a weeknight."

"Well, sir, Mr. Jim Darby is my sum to be stepdad and I live here now but to answer your question, he is out of town and River is at work wherever that's at." After a minute, I see a new vehicle pull up in the driveway. Its Rivers jeep.

"FUCK!" I'm in for it now.

"Hey Riv, tell these nice men that I live here now with you and poppa Darby." River just looks at me and I'm for sure the bitch is going to tell the officers she doesn't know what I'm talking about, but sis to be... comes through for me.

"Yes, he lives here."

"And does your dad know that you guys are throwing a party?" The officer asks River and I see panic in her eyes?

"I knew nothing about this party. I was at work... River tells the officer." Jessica steps up beside River and lets them know she is telling the truth that they have been at the mall since five o'clock this afternoon.

What the fuck does River go to work at five in the afternoon at the mall I don't know of any place that would be open after 6 but what the hell do I know.

"I need you guys to cut the parting out for the night. It's a weeknight and it's 10:30 at night everyone needs to go home for the night. I do not want to come back here tonight or any other night during the week, understood." The officer says.

"Eye, eye sir." I say, saluting him.

Once they are gone, River lights into my ass.

"What are you doing having a party at my house where I have to clean up after you, Rock? Why couldn't you have one over at your house? Your mom still owns it? She would not have known any different. If anyone calls my dad, it's me that gets into hot water, not you Rock."

"Nobody is going to call your dad, so calm your damn tits water, girl."

"Now is not the time for you to be calling me stupid names. Rock, get everyone out so I can clean this house before your mom comes home and calls my dad."

Brody gets people out of the house for me and I turn away from River and then her phone rings and I hear her grow. When I look over, I see her dad's name pop up on her screen. She pushes past me, heading to her bedroom, but before she goes, she looks at me and whispers "I hope you're happy."

"Yep, pretty damn happy."
