Sophie Your Childhood Friend Pt 07 Finale

Author's note: I'd just like to thank all of my readers for this journey! All the comments and feedback I've received so far have been super wholesome and helpful and I really appreciate them. This submission took a lot longer than usual to write and is much longer than the previous ones. Tried to spice it up a bit for the finale ;). I hope you enjoy reading!

Ch 13. Annie

Jason straddled Sophie on the bed, his strong hands sliding down her sides, brushing against her soft skin with the lightest of touches. His fingers slowly inched lower, before coming to a rest on her black lace panties. He began to rub her over her panties, his fingers tracing the outline of her labia just over the thin fabric of her undergarments-- causing her to let out an involuntary moan of pleasure.

"Sophie. Sophie... Sophie??" came a girlish voice.

Her daydreaming interrupted, Sophie's eyes snapped open, looking around, disoriented. It was late Monday afternoon and her Art elective course had just finished. Students were slowly gathering their notebooks and laptops, filing out of the classroom. Annie, one of her classmates with whom she usually sat, was looking at her-- an amused expression on her face.

"You good? You kinda dozed off there."

Sophie's ears turned red. Had she moaned out loud? She cleared her throat. "Oh, yea, just tired."

Annie nodded sympathetically, her curly brown hair bouncing as she did so. "Yeah, I hate Mondays. By the way, do you know what you're going to do for the final project? Apparently, we're going to have a gallery exhibition where we can show off all of our works for the semester. It's going to be so cool!"

Sophie shook her head distractedly, starting to put away her notebook and gather her things. "Not yet, I don't really have a subject in mind. I'm probably going to paint a fruit bowl or something."

Annie rolled her eyes. "Jesus, that's so cliche."

"Well what are you doing then?" asked Sophie, a little defensively.

"I'm going to paint myself in the arms of some handsome Chad about to sweep me off my feet." Annie closed her eyes, smiling slightly, her arms wrapped around herself, as she pictured the scene in her mind.

Sophie chuckled, slinging her backpack over her shoulder as she stood up. "Okay.. you do that."

Annie laughed as well, then her face turned to excitement as they walked out of the now empty class. "Oh, by the way, there's a Halloween party in West Campus on Rio, this Friday! It's going to be a banger! You gotta come!" She said, practically bouncing up and down.

Sophie drew a face. "There are tons of parties happening. What's so special about this one?"

"It's hosted by Alpha Omega Sigma!" she said, staring at Sophie as if expecting an elaborate reaction.

Sophie merely stared back mildly puzzled. "So a frat party..?"

Annie rolled her eyes again. "It's THE frat. They always host the best parties. Every Halloween they have an exclusive themed event. This year it's vampires AND they always hire some talent to DJ or host."

"Sounds expensive.."

"Well general admission is twenty dollars and the VIP wristbands are way more. But, if you're a hot chick and you've got on a really hot and slutty vampire costume, they let you in for free!" said Annie.

Sophie snorted. "Yeah, that doesn't objectify women at all. I think I'll pass."

Annie laughed. "There'll probably lots of hot guys as well."

Sophie shook her head. "Probably, but I'm kind of seeing someone right now." She bit her lip but a small smile crept onto her face, and she looked down.

Annie's eyes widened and she grinned. "What?! I thought you said you were single, just last week."

"It kinda just happened. To be honest, I've been waiting for it to happen for a while, I just didn't realize it."

"Who? How?" pressed Annie.

"Jason. It.. just happened. I dunno."

"Your roommate?! The tall cute guy with the dreamy eyes?"

"Yeah.." said Sophie, eyeing her suspiciously. "You have a good memory."

Annie laughed and put up her hands. "Relax girl, I'm not going to steal your man. Why don't you just invite him to the party?"

Sophie sighed. "He's not really the social, extrovert type and he doesn't drink."

Annie stared at her. "What? Is he like super religious or something?"

"No. He just... doesn't." She said, not wanting to go into detail. "But you have fun."

Annie sighed dramatically. "Fine. I guess I'll just have to go by myself. Can you at least help me pick out an outfit later?"

Sophie smiled, relieved that she wasn't going to press her further. "Absolutely."

They reached the end of the sidewalk. "Well, I gotta head to the quad to meet some people for a group project. I'll see you later."

Sophie waved as they parted ways.

Ch 14. The Outfit

Sophie opened the door to the apartment, placing her keys on the counter and dropping her backpack on the ground. She noticed Jason's door was closed but his light was on. "Jason?" she called out.

No response.

Muffled swearing came from his room. "FUCK!!"

She hurried over and knocked on his door. "Jason? Is everything alright?" She called again worried.

"Oh crap. Come in."

She pushed open the door to find Jason sitting on his bed, with headphones on, playing his PS 5 on the large monitor in his room. He looked up as she entered and took his headphones off, looking embarrassed. "Hey Soph."

"Didn't you already spend all of Sunday playing this?" Her worry quickly turning to amusement. She stared at the monitor. Another player was currently teabagging his character's lifeless body on the screen.

Jason switched it off with a frustrated sigh. "Just a bunch of twelve year olds with nothing to do all day than play this game."

She raised an eyebrow. "Did you even go to class today?"

"Yes." He said quickly, then paused guiltily. "Well.. I may have skipped Calculus but it was just a discussion section."

She tsked disapprovingly. "Don't you have to maintain a high GPA for your scholarship?"

"It's fine." he said. Then quickly changing the subject he asked. "So what's new with you?"

She sighed and flopped down on the bed next to him. "I have to think of a subject to paint for my art class. We're going to have to show it in a gallery exhibition at the end of semester for our final. I don't know what I'm going to do for it."

Jason grinned then stretched out on the bed, in what he clearly thought was a sexy pose. "Why don't you just paint me like one of your French boys?"

She laughed at the thought then shook her head. "Hmm, somehow I don't think that'd go over too well with my professor. Also I have to help Annie pick out an outfit for Halloween."

"Isn't she a little old to be trick or treating?" he asked staring at her.

"No, stupid. It's for a frat party. It's a Halloween event."

"You guys going to the mall or what?"

"Nah, she's probably just going to send me some links from Shein or Amazon to look at." She paused then asked him eagerly. "Do you want to go?"

"Go where?"

"The frat party. I heard it's going to be lit." She looked at him hopefully.

He shook his head. "Sorry Soph. Frat parties just really aren't my thing. Especially not costume parties. Besides, you know I don't drink."

"You don't have to drink." She replied pleadingly, holding onto his arm. "And I can help you with the outfit."

"I dunno, walking around a frat house sober dressed as a vampire and talking to drunk people all night just doesn't sound appealing."

"Well, it was worth a shot." Her phone dinged. It was Annie. "You can go back to your game now. I'm going to go check out the outfits she sent."

"Nah, I'm probably going to head to the library to study and then I've got my shift at the Grab a Bag. I've got some catching up to do." Jason said reluctantly, staring wistfully at his PlayStation. He shook his head and stood up. "I'll catch you later."

Sophie nodded and smiled. She patted him on the shoulder. "Go get 'em tiger."

After he had left, she opened the message that Annie had sent her.

Annie: Hey gurl! Just some ideas for the party ;)

There were several different links attached. Sophie clicked on the first one and her jaw dropped. That was what Annie planned on wearing? It was so... revealing.

The neckline of the corset plunged almost down to her navel and the rest of the ensemble--flowing sleeves and the fishnets-- were practically see through. She quickly clicked through the other links to see much of the same. She blushed at the thought of wearing something like that in public, before reminding herself it was for Annie and not herself. There was no denying that they would look hot on her friend.

Thinking on it for a moment, she picked two of the fits and sent her recommendations to Annie along with a third one she found on another site.

She was about to close out of the link when another outfit caught her eye. It was a bit more tame than the ones that Annie was looking for but still quite catching. The costume was a black form-fitting minidress with delicate straps and a high backed collar. There was a flowy see through layer that extended from the back, giving the whole thing an ethereal quality. It also came with an elegant pair of heels-- sandal like in design, with straps crisscrossing the ankles in a seductive fashion.

It was so captivating and so tempting of a purchase. She sighed, what was the point? It wasn't like she was going to the frat party. Her cursor hovered over the exit button but she couldn't bring herself to click on it just yet. Maybe she didn't have to wear it to the party. Sophie's heart fluttered a bit as she imagined wearing it for Jason. She bit her lip. Before she could change her mind, she added it to her cart and purchased the fit. It would arrive on Thursday.

Ch 15. Halloween

Friday finally came around.

"Oh my God, oh my God!" squealed Annie excitedly after their Psychology class had ended. "I can't wait!"

Sophie shook her head, amused by her friend's excitement and slightly jealous that she would be missing out on the event. "Which outfit did you end up going with?" she asked curiously.

"I picked the corset with the fishnets! I haven't had a chance to try it on yet. Are you and Jason coming?" asked Annie breathlessly.

"I figured you'd pick that one. It was my favorite as well. You'll look great, Annie." said Sophie. She shook her head. "No, he didn't want to come, and I didn't want to go without him."

Annie pouted.

"But I did get an outfit." Sophie added.

Annie looked confused then a sly grin of understanding slowly spread across her face. "Are you trying to seduce him into going?"

Sophie's cheeks turned a bright pink. "No! Well... maybe a little. Actually I was just planning on wearing it... for him." She blushed deeper still.

Annie's grin widened. " Oh, you're a naughty one, aren't you?"

Sophie covered her face with a palm. "Okay, well you have fun Annie! I'm going to be late for my Stats class." She said hurrying off.

Annie called after her, still grinning. "You have fun too, with Jason! I'll send you loads of pictures as well. Let me know if y'all change your mind."

Sophie's Statistics lecture dragged on and on and she kept checking the time on her phone every five minutes waiting for it to finally be over. She noticed the lecture hall was definitely missing quite a few students who apparently had opted to get a head start on their Halloween. She itched to go back to her apartment to try on her outfit. She hadn't had a chance to try it on yesterday and she was dying to see how it fit.

The second the bell tolled, she had already had her stuff packed and she quickly left the hall before the rest of the students had even begun to gather their things.

When Sophie finally reached her apartment, she took the stairs two at a time. Entering the apartment, she noticed Jason's backpack on the couch and his door closed. Probably already getting started on his weekend of video games. A message dinged on her phone. Annie was wearing her sexy vampire outfit sitting with a few similarly decked out friends, drinking and laughing. Clearly they had wasted no time pregaming.

Sophie sighed, half wishing she was with them. She gave the picture a like and then headed into her room to unbox the package she had received. The outfit was exactly like the picture. She felt the fabric between her fingers, admiring how smooth and lightweight it was. The sheer layer cascaded down like mist. She turned to the full length mirror, holding the dress up against herself, tilting her head as she imagined the final look.

The heels sat beside her on the bed, sleek and delicate, the straps wrapping sensually around the ankles. They were the perfect finishing touch--elegant, yet daring.

She quickly tried on the dress. It hugged her curves perfectly, though it felt a little tight. The skirt was a bit short for her liking but it really showed off her legs. Though it may have been modest compared to Annie's costume, it was a lot more revealing than anything Sophie was used to wearing. The high backed collar helped sell the vampireness. She eagerly slipped on the heels and posed in front of the mirror. Perfect. Now she just needed to somehow find an excuse to surprise Jason with it. Inspiration hit her.

Sticking her head out the door of her room she called out. "Jason? I'm going to order a pizza, you want some?"

"Hell yeah. Could we get some pepperoni, olives, and mushrooms on my side?"

"Sure." She grinned. She would show up carrying pizza wearing the outfit. That would surely get his attention. She placed the order. She checked her phone. There were a few more pictures from Annie. The first picture was the outside of the frat house. It was decked out in Halloween decorations with fog machines and the works. It looked like a Gothic castle, and it was crowded with people in varying costumes all on theme. They had really gone all out.

The other was a selfie of Annie holding a plastic red cup and standing inside a crypt like dance floor with a crowd of people. She looked quite tipsy already, her eyes squinting into the camera flash and smiling widely.

Annie: Ayyy this party is littt.

Sophie shook her head amused by her friend's antics.

Thirty minutes later, there was a knock on the door. She went to answer it. When she pulled it open the delivery man did a double take at her outfit. Sophie blushed, she had completely forgotten what she was wearing.

"Hey, sorry about the..." she gestured at her outfit, laughing a little.

He chuckled. "Oh, don't be. It looks great! I've already seen some crazy outfits tonight."

She laughed. "I'll bet." Then she handed him the money before taking the pizza.

He thanked her and left.

She knocked on Jason's door. She could hear muffled explosions and gunshots from his room.

"Come in."

She opened the door in time to see Jason's character get killed.

"FUCKK!" Jason ripped off his headset and tossed it onto the bed, letting out a frustrated groan. He noticed Sophie standing by the door. "Sorry," he said sheepishly, scratching the back of his neck. His face brightened immediately when he saw the pizza. Then, as his eyes drifted up, taking in her outfit, his voice caught in his throat.

He struggled to form words before finally blurting out, "Uh--hot--wait, no--I mean, pizza--uh, what?"

Sophie bit back a laugh, tilting her head. "You sure you're okay there, champ?"

He shook his head, clearing his throat. "So, you're still planning on going to the party?"

She shook her head, placing the pizza box on his desk beside the door. Then she sauntered over to him, the flowy part of her dress billowing out behind her as she walked. Her heels helped accentuate her legs as she approached him. Jason's throat felt dry and he couldn't take his eyes off of the way her dress clung to her breasts.

She bent over in front of him, arching her back gracefully as she reached down to slowly unstrap her heels. Then she straightened, her eyes never leaving his. Jason hadn't realized he was holding his breath and he coughed.

She placed her gloved hands on the crotch of his shorts. "I see you're happy to see me."

He nodded, the back of his neck turning a little red.

She placed her arms around his neck and clambered on top of him, straddling him with her legs. Jason placed his hands on her hips, and she began to grind against his crotch, the skirt of her minidress hiking up so her black panties were in view.

Jason pulled her closer as she continued to gyrate on his lap, the friction causing his cock to strain against his shorts. Sophie grinned and began to gradually speed up her movements. Her phone began to ring at the worst time. She looked at the caller id. It was Annie again.

Jason groaned. "Don't get that Soph."

Sophie looked torn as the phone continued to ring. "It'll be really fast. I just want to check in with her."

Jason sighed but let her go.

She stepped off of him and grabbed her phone. "Hey Annie! I'm kind of in the middle of something right now. Can I call you back?" She winked at Jason as she waited for a response.

Jason grabbed her wrist and pulled her onto his lap again, causing her to let out a gasp and laugh.

A shaky, slurred voice came through. "S-Sophie?"

Sophie sat up straighter. "Annie, what's wrong?"

"I dunno..." Annie mumbled, her words sluggish and uneven. "I-- I'm so tired. I don't know where my friends went... I don't feel good."

Sophie's stomach tightened. "Where are you?"

Annie let out a breathy, disoriented laugh. "Um... at the house in a bathroom. I think I-- I need to go home."

"I'm coming to get you. Stay put, okay?" Sophie said worriedly into the phone. She got off of Jason's lap.

There was another pause, then a faint, almost tearful, "Okay..." before the line went dead.

Jason looked up at her, concerned. "What's wrong?"

Sophie looked around for her keys. "It's Annie. She went to the party and she seems sick or something. I'm going to go pick her up."

Jason made to get up. "Here, I'll come with."

Sophie shook her head. "No, it's okay. You enjoy the pizza. I'll be right back."

Jason was already grabbing his jacket. "No, I'm coming with." His tone was adamant.

Sophie was secretly glad he had decided to come. She threw on her own jacket and grabbed her heels.

Ch 15. The Party

Having Jason search for directions to the party turned out to be quite unnecessary. As soon as Sophie turned onto West Campus on Rio they could spot the event immediately. Crowds of people were milling outside of the faux Gothic castle facade and the music was blaring. The party definitely stood out by a mile compared to the other parties going on. They ended up having to park two blocks away.

Sophie messaged Annie as they hurried towards the entrance. A doorman, some frat boy dressed in a red and black velvet tuxedo with fake fangs and black slicked hair, stopped them. He eyed Sophie's outfit appreciatively.

"Welcome to Castle Nocturna!" he said grandly, bowing deeply. With a flourish, he took Sophie's hand and kissed it before wrapping a VIP bracelet around her wrist.

"Uhm.." said Sophie as she gingerly took her hand out of his. "We're just here to get a friend."

He smiled graciously. "No worries fair maiden." He gestured behind him. "Your bracelet will get you everywhere you need to go."

"Er thanks." She said as she headed inside.

When Jason made to follow her the doorman blocked his path.

"Hey, what?" said Jason trying to push past him.

The doorman looked at his tshirt and jeans disdainfully. "Cover charge is thirty dollars." He said, not bothering to stay in character.

Sophie turned and watched nervously, wringing her hands. She was torn between helping Jason and getting to Annie as fast as possible.

"Thirty dollars?!" exclaimed Jason. "Look man, I'm not here to crash your party. I'm just here to pick up a friend. We'll be out in like ten minutes."
