Part: 1
Compatibility is like Russian roulette. It is a hit or miss game of chance involving two kinds of players: talkers and listeners. Talkers and listeners can form a good bond, feeding off each other's energy to make a good relationship. They could also form a bad connection, finding faults in each other's strengths and weaknesses.
Nina is a talker. At the age of eighteen, Nina wants a boyfriend more than she wants to get into college. She is a senior in high school with high aspirations for herself. She is a ball of energy that could talk you ear off, but it seems like the only topic of interest to her is nabbing a man for prom. At Nina's work place, all of her co-workers know how she is - loud and always on the prowl. It seems every conversation ended with Nina asking, "Hey, does anybody know someone who would like to go to prom with me?"
Nina is a pretty girl, standing five foot seven with curly brown hair that wisps around her shoulders. She is slender and her C-cup breasts are perched high on her chest. She has a warm smile and wide brown eyes. She is pretty, but knows looks will only get her so far. Most people see her and hesitate, knowing what is about to come out of her set of full lips.
Jeremy is an average guy, five foot eight with a medium build. His warm personality is infectious and his sense of humor draws people in like a hummingbird to nectar. He's the kind of guy who says the right thing at the right time. Nina started working with him a few months ago and they instantly became friends. They eat together on their lunch breaks and Nina calls him for advice whenever she needs it. Jeremy listens, smiles and nods, seemingly happy to help a friend.
March is unnaturally warm and prom planning is in full swing at Nina's high school. After contemplating it for weeks, Nina decides to pop the question to Jeremy. She finds him in the break room and sits down across from him, batting her eyelashes and smiling. "Jeremy, will you go to prom with me?"
"I would love to Nina, but I'm twenty-two. You have to be under twenty-one to go to a high school prom. So I'm sorry, but I can't go."
Disappointment washes over Nina's face. "But, can't you just pretend you're twenty-one so you can go with me?"
"As tempting as evading high school prom policy sounds, it's a disaster waiting to happen. I can't, Nina."
"Hmph," Nina sighs and stands up. "Okay, thanks anyway. Talk to you later." Nina walks from the break room, hanging her head.
"Hey, Nina!" Jeremy calls. "I'm having a party on Friday after work, if you'd like to come."
Nina's face brightens at the invitation. "Okay, cool. I'll come by."
"Maybe it will help get your mind off all this prom bullshit." Jeremy puts a hand on her shoulder and gives her a warm smile. "Cheer up, kiddo." Nina blushes as he rubs her shoulder and heads back to work.
The rest of the week, Nina is on edge with excitement for Jeremy's party. After Jeremy suggested she take a break from thinking about prom, it has been the only thing on her mind. 'Maybe I can find someone to go with me to prom at the party!' Nina thinks to herself with delight. Giddy, Nina counts down the days until Friday.
Friday is a warm night with a clear sky full of stars. After work, Nina stops at home to change her clothes and cake on some make-up. She chooses a short sleeved, button down plaid shirt and tight black skinny jeans. She takes a last look in the mirror, admiring her reflection and puckering her lips in a mock kiss.
The party is in full swing when Nina arrives around ten thirty. The music is loud and vibrates through Nina's body as she walks into the house. Someone gives her a red cup. She does not know what it contains, but she downs it. She wanders around from room to room until she finds Jeremy in the kitchen, playing beer pong with some friends.
"Nina, you made it!" Jeremy throws his arm around her shoulder and pulls her close.
"Hi Jeremy," Nina yells over the music. "This party is really great. Thanks for the invite."
"No problem." Jeremy's breath is hot against her ear and a mix of beer and sweat seeps into Nina's nostrils. "Grab a drink. Make yourself at home."
Jeremy releases Nina from his grasp and returns to his game. Nina serves herself another drink and sits quietly at the counter, sipping a thick concoction from another red cup. She observes everyone, making assumptions and thinking about who would make a good prom date. She sits tall, putting her tits on display through her thin shirt.
Nina talks to a few people, all of which she knows mutually through friends. She casually brings up prom, only to find out almost everyone at the party is either over twenty-one or has a date already. Frustrated, Nina's intentions turn from prom to sex. Nina wanders around the house. There are a few couples getting frisky in some of the upstairs rooms, but no sign of any single guys. "I just want to fuck someone!" Nina mutters under her breathe. She takes her jacket and stomps toward the door. As she reaches for the door knob, a voice stops her.
"Hello, Nina." The voice is deep and husky. Nina turns toward the sound. There is a man standing in the doorway of the kitchen. His face is dark but the light from the room behind him illuminates his silhouette. He is wearing a dark hooded sweatshirt and is standing hunched over in the door frame.
"Who are you?" Nina inquires, with a slight shake in her voice.
"Don't worry, Nina." He says as he takes a step toward her. Suddenly there is a mouth over hers.
It is rough but warm and he tastes like cheap beer. His lips are full and his tongue plays tricks with her's. He wraps his arms around her shoulders, pinning her arms to her sides. He starts to move toward the stairs. She pulls back and tries to scream but his hand clamps over her mouth.
At the top of the stairs, the stranger pulls Nina into a dark room. He throws her down on the bed and locks the door. The only light shines from under the crack in the door. The figure stands before her and she can see the whites of his eyes, and the glow of his white teeth. He grabs her hair in his fist and devours her mouth again. He is rough but Nina can feel herself getting aroused by his aggression. He pulls her up on the bed and stands over her, pinning her hands above her head.
"Who the fuck are you? What do you think you're doing?"
