The secrets of summer

Chapter 22

I hand Bri the invitation for tonight's party.

"What's this?" she asks me, she doesn't look as intrigued as I had hoped.

"We're going to a party at Cassie's," I explain "We need to go shopping so get some clothes on."

We walk into Deb and see that the store is 40% off, the excitement inside me is growing by the minute.

I start to look around at the shorts but decide on going for a dress instead.

Half an hour later Bri has fifteen dresses to try on and I have twelve.

Some of the ones Brianna has are a little extravagant but she insisted on trying them on. Saying that she wants to look pretty and take pictures.

Bri ended up finding two, the one for the party has pink and black roses as the fabric, it hugs her skin perfectly and I have to admit she looks hot. The other one is a light blue strapless with one row of ruffles along the top of the dress.

My dress is a medium shade of purple. It's a halter top that has a crystal belt along the rib cage.

"I'm so glad you made it!" screams an already drunk Cassie. It's around nine and the party started at eight thirty.

We're handed two drinks, with a pink looking color on the inside. I take a sip and the alcohol is strong. I think it is tequila.

We walk past the dancing bodies in the living room and I cringe at the blaring music. The back yard is full, there must be around two hundred people here already.

I'm glad I remember Cassie mentioning a pool being here but I honestly doubt we'll be swimming.

I feel bored already, I look around for a familiar face and see Hope stumbling towards us.

"Hey, I'm so sorry about what happened with Colton." She says to us, I smile not wanting to hear the words that may come out of her mouth. She and Bri start talking and I try to pay attention.

Justin is here and I so badly hope he brought along his friend that I have grown to enjoy a little too much.

Justin and Hope are such a cute couple and I love them together. It's oh been three weeks since I've known the both of them, but I can tell she's happier than before.

I look beside me and notice that the girls have disappeared and I'm left here standing alone.

Someone presses a cold bottle against my back and it takes all of me not to scream from the coldness. I shiver in the hot air.

"Come with me," I hear in my ear and I smile. His breath along my neck has already heated me up.

I could recognize his voice anywhere. The deep sexiness is unmistakable. I let him take my hand and pray we don't pass Bri.

Colton brings me to a room.The memory of the way he kissed me hits me hard and I wrap my arms around his neck to make an even better memory for the next time.

He groans and unties the top of my dress and I let it fall to the floor. I've become a lot more confident now.

He pulls away to look at me and I find myself doing the same as my eyes scan over him. Stopping at the pull in his swim shorts. A smile tugs at my lips at the fact that I did that to him. He grabs my hair and pulls me onto the bed with him.

...

I want to tell him I love him again. But I know that's a dangerous spot to go with him. He's not ready to hear it. Maybe one day we will be able to whisper sweet words to one another like Austin and I did. No, I can't compare this relationship with Austin, it's not even close to the same.

Colton is humming a song and it's very beautiful, the thumping of his heart matches perfectly with the tune. I find myself never wanting to move from this position; my head on his chest, one leg wrapped around his waist. One of his hands in my hair and the other resting on my knee. I wish I could see how cute we look.
