My unsweetened Valentine

So my name is Rainbow. Why you ask, my mom was probably high on ecstacsy when she gave birth to me. Then again she is a hippie. Now you're probably wondering what gender am I? I am a male and no I do not like guys. I am not gay. 1

Having the name Rainbow is very troublesome in today's society, especially if you're male and you're a highschool student. One advantage I get out of the name is that the ultra cool people assume it's my rave name. The ignorant and bone-headed freaks that go to my school, well they're just ignorant and bone-headed and love to beat me up. Lucky for me I am gaining major muscles, and lucky for the ladies too. 2

For those of you who don't know what raves are, or what P.L.U.R is, here is a quick study guide. Raves are these big parties held in warehouses where its all dark except for the laser lights that project squiggles upon the ceilings and wall. Trance, electronica, happycore, jungle - these are just some of the genres of music that are played at raves. All very loud, all very groovy, and peaceful if you like the sound of your heartbeat pulsating to a very loud rhythm in your ears. Now P.L.U.R stands for Peace, Love, Unity, Respect. Responsibility is the hidden R. 3

Peace - No fighting, bitching, or catty behavior allowed. Love for one another as if every dancer is a part of your family. Unity - we all come together to enjoy a one of a kind music festival. and Respect - Respect your elders, respect yourself and respect other ravers.4

Now that I've schooled you on raving lets get back to how Hippie-ish my mother is by naming me rainbow and how I met my unsweetened valentine. 5

"So what are you going to do about your name?" My Rave sister, Luxuria asked me.6

"I really don't know, maybe at school I'll go by my middle name Adam." I answered. 7

"It's going to be weird, seeing as how you and I both dress in our eccentric clothing, and everyone knows me as Luxuria. It's just going to be weird calling you adam." She responded. I was about to reply when somebody knocked at my front door. 8

"Hold that thought." I said and walked into the living room. I peeped out the peephole and saw this girl standing on my porch twirling her crazy curled hair around her finger humming a song. She had on a tank top that displayed a glittery "My little pony" picture, a black, velour skirt with curly-cue ribbons plastered in various spots and crazy purple heels with leg warmers attached. For a moment I thought the circus was about to recruit me. 9

"Hello." She said when I answered the door. 10

"Hi.." I said reluctantly. 11

"I'm a new promoter for Star Shine Kids record company. We're a new trance and electronica record company, and I'm trying to introduce people to our culture." 12

"I'm a raver." I bluntly described. 13

"Oh wow, now I feel like an idiot." She laughed. I couldn't help but giggle. This girl was just so open and raw, and sugar-coated but not in a sweet kind of way. 14

"Well, My name is StarShine, and yeah I know the company is named after me but I'm just a promoter but here's a flyer for our next event. I'm really hoping you'll come. It would be nice to know more than just two people at a rave." She replied and left in a blink of an eye. 15

I walked back to my room, with the flyer in hand and tried to register what just happened. 16

"What are you smiling about?" Luxuria asked me. 17

"We have a new raver we need to corrupt." I answered. 18

"And how do you come up with that solution my friend?" She asked. 19

"The girl who just came up to my door is a raver, her name is star shine and she is promoting this rave called FantasyLand. But it's kinda weird how she's promoting door to door instead of just promoting at raves and discreetly placing the flyers in the high schools like we do." I responded. 20

"okay... Not completely following, but I'm down for going to Fantasyland." Luxuria replied. 21

*~*~*~Fast forwarding to a couple of weeks later when FantasyLand comes around*~*~*~22

The music was pumping, the base was banging. I could hear the beats beating the walls of the club as me and Luxuria stood outside waiting to get into FantasyLand. Long story short, Luxuria was bugging me to show her where StarShine was, and what she looked like and whatever else, but the truth was I couldn't find StarShine. It wasn't until half the night was over, that DJ Trance was playing on the main stage that I noticed StarShine was one of the go-go dancers. I was completely mesmerized. Never in my five years of raving have I ever seen a raver take my breath away like that. Her moves were so precise to the beats of the music. The way her hips swayed were like a pendulum swinging back and forth hypnotizing anyone who was watching. 23

Trance's set ended and StarShines hypnotizing act ended. I found her dancing in the circles of lightshows. At first she didn't recognize me but I told her where she first met me and that my name was Rainbow and she was all excited. We danced under the rave lights for the rest of the night. Sharing kisses every so often, and coming home together in the wee hours of the morning. 24

*~*~*~ Monday *~*~25

Monday at school, I was sitting in biology watching how asexual micro-organisms reproduce when StarShine walked in. She handed her transcripts to Mr. Edwards and took a seat next to me. 26

"What are you doing here?" I asked. 27

"I transferred here. Mainly because my old school is fifty miles away from this town." She giggled. I chuckled. She reached for my hand and interlocked her fingers with mine. 28

"Miss Shine, and Rainbow. You know the rules about Public Displays of Affection. Detention NOW!" Mr Edwards yelled. We giggled and ran out of class. Only to be caught by the bell. Who really cares about detention anyways. 29

As I opened my locker and grabbed my books, Starshine pushed me up against the lockers, ran her hands all over my chest and hair and planted a big, fat kiss on my lips. Everyone was watching. Some girls were awwing, others were giggling, but mainly guys were just stunned. Can you blame them, I proved to them I wasn't gay and that I snagged the new hottie in school before anyone else could. Now that my friend is a good day.
