*long day.. wanna get mcdons?*
i love nothing more than getting these text from my best friend.
*well duh.*
i press send, get my shoes on, grab my car keys and head out the door.

my best friend, nicole, lives 7 houses away from me so we're always together. we met in day care. she was 2 and i was 3. her younger brother, alex, was 1. we've all been like the 3 musketeers since then. our parents became best friends as well, so we saw each other every week. we were both there for each other when our parents split, and now since my parents divorce my mother and i moved into a house down the street from them. nicole is a sophomore , alex is a freshman, and i am a junior. so we literally see each other every day. we go to a school in the middle of the country in a small town in Michigan. so everyone knows everyone and everything spreads like a wildfire.

i get to nicole's house and her dogs run outside to greet me, once i stumble over the dogs and get into the house i see nicole sitting at the island in her kitchen with alex.
"why are you here?" alex was always speaking before thinking
"such a lovely way to be greeted al" i say as i take off my shoes and walk toward them.
"didn't mean it like that, just usually we go to your house. wait, are you two going somewhere?"
nicole looks at me and shakes her head from left to right.
"j-juussst back to my house." i suck at lying and plus he knows me way to well to believe that.
"yeah. let me just grab my stuff." nicole gets up and runs to her room and comes back out with her purse and phone charger.
"if your just going to mak's house why do you need your purse huh?" alex looks directly at us..
"fine. we're going to mcdons. you can come if you wannnnt." nicole mumbles as if she was super annoyed with her brother today.
alex opens the fridge door
"do we have anything to eat?"
"exactly why im going to mcdons alex."
he shuts the door and puts he's shoes on, grabs his wallet off the counter and we are out.

"so have you downloaded that app, afterschool?" all three of us are laying on my couch after our McDonald's.
"no sounds stupid" i reply to Nicole's question.

(afterschool is an app were you can post anon comments and only people from your school can see them)

"you should get it tho, it's kinda funny."
she shows me one of the post,
SIDNEY HUNBER MADE OUT WITH COACH LUME TO GET AN A IN GYM CLASS LAST SEMESTER
"that makes sense.." i say laughing about the post. "...but still i don't see anything good coming from that app."
"oh come on mak! alex even has it!"
alex looks up from his phone "im on it right now" i agree to get it if she'd stop bugging me about it.

~

"Mom why didn't you just tell me" I look at her looking at herself in the mirror, she's all dressed up and ready to out on a date with some guy Tammy, one of her best friends, hooked her up with. "Makayla, we'll talk afterwards. I'm not gonna let you ruin this for me. You know if you need anything Laura (nicole and alex's mom) is home, so just go over there if you get bored. Or have a friend over its Friday!... do I need more mascara?" "yeah." i reply and head towards my room just as the doorbell rings, i go to open it and there he is, my moms date.
"oh. uh hello. i'm Todd. you must me Mickala" he holds out his hand and i cross my arms
"it's MA KAY LA. where are you taking my mother?" he awkwardly moves his hand back towards his pocket.
"To dinner. May I come in?"
"where at tho? how do I know your not a creep? or a killer? where do you work Todd."
"MAKAYLA ANN STOP IT." my mom comes and pushes me outta the door.
ugh, "see you later Mak, love you." "yep." i reply and walk to my room.

~

it's been an hour since my mom left, i know she'll be out super late. she always is.
*lets throw a party!*
*right now?*
*yea, my moms out on a date. nothing huge but she said i could have friends over. why not right?*
i laugh as i press send and a few minutes later there's a knock on my window, that's how i know it's one of my friends showing up at my house. i hear the front door open and seconds later nicole and alex walk into my room.
"so are we seriously doing this?"
"yeah." i smile and turn up my stereo and start dancing around.
"should we have it downstairs or in the living room?"
"your basement is literally set up for parties, definitely down there!" nicole shouts to me as she fixes her hair. alex is texting all his friends when i rush over and turn the music down
"I GOT A PLAN!"
"what is it" they both look interested
"we all have that app right?"
"the after school app?"
"yeah!"
"what about it?"
"instead of posting stupid rumors, post that im having a party. my house, 9 o'clock. byob. kiss face emoji." i laugh as nicole post to the app.
"so you got anything for this party?" alex ask knowing i don't have anything
"shit. okay what time is it?"
"7:43 why?"
"let's go to the store real quick, and text Hodges asking if he do us a favor" i ask nicole as i grab my car keys, and shoes
"come on guys we gotta go get stuff."

~

we get back to my house and i picked up heather and haley on the way home, it's now 8:38. i got 5 bags of chips, 9 two liters of different pops and i ordered pizza on the way home. perks of having a emergency credit card that your dad puts money on all the time. my doorbell rings at we are sitting up the chips and pop around my bar downstairs, i run upstairs to answer it.
"Did someone ask for a favor?!"
i see Hodges and his friend nick holding brown paper bags...
"Hodges!" i hug him and welcome them in
"woah, sick crib" nick says in amazement as he stares at the marble flooring and our chandelier
"haha thanks, the gangs downstairs." i tell them pointing toward the basement. they both walk downstairs and the doorbell rings again, i hear a bunch of laughing and talking behind the door before i open it.
"THE GIRL OF THE HOUR" i smile at the group of kids, their all alexs friends. freshman. explains why their here early.
"alex is downstairs" i say immediately pointing at the basement 3 out of the 5 walk pass me and into the basement
"maybe im here to see you." kyle one of alexs best friends ways flirts with me
"gross. go downstairs or get out." i tell him. his buddy that stayed with him, caleb is actually cute, and we've texted before but nothing serious... considering he is a freshman and my little brothers best friend.
"oh baby don't be so harsh." Kyle steps closer to me
"oh suck my ass Kyle" caleb starts laughing
"don't turn me on now mak." Kyle winks as i push him downstairs
"gross" i say under my breath and smile looking back up at caleb..
"Mak.."
"Caleb..." we both smile
"long time no talk." he dose this silly pouty face and winks at me, i laugh
"yeah yeah, mister too cool to snapchat Makayla back." i tease as he begins to walk downstairs
"promise i'll snap you tonight." he laughs and runs down to the basement. nicole comes up a few seconds later as i am going around locking all the bedrooms upstairs, nobody's having sex in my house.. no way.
"Mak! 89 people liked the post!"
"so 89 people need to get here." i laugh
"should i post another one about the party?"
"do it." i smile as the doorbell rings. nicole and i open the door to greet our guest. we open it to see half of the wrestling team and half of the football team. some of them are shouting our names and hugging us, we tell them to get downstairs as another car pulls into my yard. it's a bunch of my girl friends along with another car full of Nicole's girl friends. we all hug and take pictures, share short stories and we walk downstairs together, i leave the front door open and Mandy, one of my friends, makes a sign and hangs it up on the door saying "PARTIES IN THE BASEMENT. FIRST DOOR TO THE RIGHT."

~

a bunch of other people from the school showed up and they all invited their friends. luckily my house is huge so its not even crowded yet. everyone's drinking, or smoking pot. they all seem to be having a good time. im taking to one of Mandy's friends boyfriends friend, that somehow showed up at my party. his names Ty, he's a basketball player, im just hoping Mandy didn't tell him that im single and he is getting his hopes up. as Ty was about to go on and tell me about another game of his i hear someone yell
"CANNONBALL!!!" then a huge splash..
"i'll be right back." i tell Ty as i walk toward my hottub, which i thought was covered up so nobody would get in.. i was wrong. way wrong. i see a wet Dylan Duker step outta the tub and walk toward me. oh no.. i thought i began to back up but it was too late Dylan got a grip around me
"LETS GO FOR A SWIM MAK!"

cool. i step out of the tub and hear everyone laugh or say "oh my godddd" some even take pictures of Dylan and I soaking wet. i turn red and start smacking the shit outta Dylan but he just laughs.

~

"you're an ass." Dylan and I are now in my upstairs bathroom drying off,
"you're too sober for this to be your party Mak." he smiles at me with mischief in his eyes, he's kinda cute when he's not surrounded by his meathead friends.
"you know what Dylan Duker..."
"what?" he laughs
"that's the smartest thing you've ever said." i smile at him through the mirror as i blow dry my hair. he starts to twirl his towel around and snacks my butt with it
"Dylan! i will kill you." I look at him stern then laugh
"I'm dry, so im gonna go get you a drink. meet me downstairs in 10?" i laugh
"sure."
i put on dry clothes and head downstairs
