Sneaking out of the house

“Come on, Cynthia. Why don’t you ever come to our parties?” Stephanie asked. “You’re so lame. Can’t you just sneak out? Pretend to go to sleep and just crawl out the window. But you have got to come to this one.”

Cynthia nibbled her bottom lip. She never dared disobeying Margaret’s rules. And she knew them like they were on the back of her hand. Still, Cynthia was tempted as she really wanted to develop her friendships. But with her curfew it was always difficult. “I dunno Steph,” Cynthia said. “Margaret’s really strict.”

“Come on, what’s the worse that happens? Just show up for one minute and then dip out,” Stephanie said. “We can party it up, hangout with the popular kids, and have some fun. It’s literally our after graduation party. You’ve graduated high school, and now we celebrate. You can’t miss it. Everyone is going to be there. And you’ll just be known as the loser who never went to one party because her mommy told her not to.”

Cynthia sighed. “Fine. I’ll go. But it’s in and out. That’s it. I swear.”

Stephanie grinned. “I knew you’d cave. Make sure to show up in something cute. It’s your last impression. Maybe you can even get some cute guy’s attention.”

Cynthia was nervous. Her stepmother had gone to bed, and it was 10 PM. The party was supposed to start at 10:15 PM. She slowly made her way out the window as quietly as possible. She made sure not to leave trace. She scaled down the wall of her room in a cute silver dress. She had no good pairs of undies thanks to her mother’s rules and strict dress code, so Stephanie had given her a thong to try out.

Cynthia felt unbelievably uncomfortable as the thong was a bit tight and wedged up her butt crack. It was practically invisible with her bare butt cheeks visible if anyone lifted her skirt up. She climbed over the metal fence into her neighbor’s yard and started to run down the road. She was free. She was doing it. She turned down the road to find Stephanie waiting with her black mustang. Cynthia climbed in and blushed as Stephanie hit the gas. “In and out,” Cynthia said.

“Relax. Margaret will never know,” Stephanie said.

Cynthia nodded as Stephanie pulled up to a big house with the cars parked all the way down the street. Stephanie drove past all of them and pulled into the driveway. “Steph… I… I don’t know about this. Margaret will kill me if she finds out about this,” Cynthia said.

“Bitch, it’s too late now. Let’s go,” Stephanie said.

Cynthia reluctantly stepped out of the car and let Stephanie pull her along. “Steph, wait…”

Stephanie threw the door open and yelled. “Hey, everyone! CYNTHIA POTTER IS HERE!”

Everyone stopped when they were doing and turned to see Cynthia standing there awkwardly. Cynthia blushed as she waved awkwardly. “Damn the loner girl finally showed up to something,” Gertrude, one of the popular girls said. “Here Cynth, have a punch.”

Gertrude handed Cynthia a red solo cup. Cynthia drank it and was pleasantly surprised by the taste. Cynthia grabbed a brownie from one of the side tables and ate it. As she did, she felt all eyes on her. She could see grins on people’s faces, people whispering.

Cynthia stumbled as she found herself in one of the football player’s arms. He sighed. “Woah, you need to calm down. Guys, who gave her a brownie? Alright, come on. Drink some water.”

He handed her a clear plastic cup and Cynthia sipped on it. She sat down on one of the couches and came back to her senses as the party continued. “Oh God, why do I have a headache,” Cynthia groaned, clutching her forehead.

“Hey, Cynthia,” a cute boy said as he approached her.

“D-danny?” Cynthia said, blushing as she ran a hand through her hair.

“You look pretty cute. I didn’t think you’d show up,” Danny said.

“I didn’t think I would either,” Cynthia said. “My stepmom’s pretty hardcore. B-but she’ll never find out.”

Danny nodded as he sat down next to her. He rested a hand on her bare thigh, raising her skirt just a bit. “I think I really like you,” he said.

“Y-you do?” Cynthia said.

Danny nodded. “Yeah,” he said.

He began leaning forward slowly. Cynthia was about to kiss Danny when suddenly the front door burst open.
