"I can't sleep." exclaimed Isa.
The first night of summer was always like this for her,it always took her a night or two to get used to that bed again.
She stood up and put on her bathing suit.
"Sleepy head you're coming with me." she said.
I simply tucked my head inside the blanket.
"No..get up." she exclaimed.
"Let me sleep." I replied while covering my face a the pillow.
"Here's your bathing suit,put it on and yes you're coming with me."
"No..Isa i am not."
She stared at me with those puppy eyes that I couldn't resist.
"Fine..but stop doing that."
"Yay! I'll be waiting for you." she said the left the room excitedly.
I quickly put on my bathing suit and went downstairs.
"Isa where are you?" I couldn't find Isabela anywhere around the pool but to my surprise I saw Conrad sitting over the edge of the pool with his feet in water.
"What are you doing here?" I asked him.
"I couldn't sleep." he replied nonchalantly.
"What about you?" he continued.
"I was looking for Belly..I mean Isa."
He nodded.

Isabel where the hell did you disappear after waking me up from my peaceful sleep. What am i supposed to do now should I go back and sleep or should I try talking to Conrad.

I let my intrusive thoughts win and jumped into the pool.I came up for air and saw him smoking a cigarette.
"I thought you said smoking pot changes the way your brain processes information." I said
"So does your cell phone."
"You said marijuana messes with white matter."
"And do you even know what white matter is?"
"You said our brains are still developing.."
"God, did you memorize every single thing I have ever said."
"Get over yourself." I said and sat beside him.
"I mean Conrad you're the one who said smoking's dumb and that real athletes don't put shit in their bodies." I continued.
"I said a lot of things, Eve..and I'm not an athlete anymore so..." he replied and he finally looked at me.
"Well i still think you should quit." I said.
"What will you give me if i do?
We both stared at each other for a moment and I could feel the tension increasing between us.
"Nothing..you should quit for yourself." I said breaking away the eye contact.
"hey are you and Belly really going to this debutant thing?"
"Yeah..I didn't attend it last year plus now I can attend it with Isa." I replied while smiling.
"Don't let my mom make you her little doll just because she never had a daughter."
"I don't mind it..sometimes I wish I was her daughter."
"You're better off with your aunt, trust me."
"Why are you acting so different?" I couldn't resist it now, I had to ask him after what he said about Susannah.
"I am not."
"I mean something is going on..you can tell me."
"Eve.."
"Come on man, we are leaving."
Steven why'd you have to do this. Conrad was finally starting to talk and now...
"Where are you guys going?" I asked.
"To the first bonfire of summer and you're coming with us." said Jeremiah
"No..I'll stay here with Isa." I replied.
"Have fun with the moms." Steven exclaimed.

I went to my room after that and found Isa getting ready.
"Where'd you disappear?" I asked folding my arms.
"Oh I heard Jere and Steven talking and I couldn't miss it." she replied while putting on her lip gloss.
"You know Steven will not allow you to go there."
"Like I care..plus you are going with me so it won't be that much of a problem."
"I am not going with you, Isa."
"You are, quickly dry your hair and wear these."
she said and handed me a black puff sleeved crop top and shorts.
I decided to go with her since I wasn't feeling like sleeping now.

Coming to the bonfire wasn't the best idea afterall, all I could see was people making out, smoking and drinking.
"yo! gas station girl" a random dude shouted and was approaching us.
"where are you two coming from?" he continued.
"another party." Isa spoke up.
"Sweet...here you can take my bear." he said offering the beer can to Isa.
"Nah..she's alright." I said sternly.
"I get it..so got a boyfriend back home." he replied while smiling.
"Steven." Isa shouted.
"What the hell are you doing here?" he was infuriated.
"and I'm sorry what are you wearing?" he continued.
"I invited her who the fuck are you?" the guy said.
"I am their brother. She's 15 you pedo." he said while pointing to Isa.
"I'm almost 16." Isa replied.
The guy let go of my hand now and went away.
Steven grabbed Isa's hand and carried her away.
"Steven..it was my fault I shouldn't have agreed to come here with her." I tried to stop him.
"You're embarrassing me." Isa said while trying to let go of her hand.
"Are you kidding me? you're embarrassing Belly." he replied.
"Steven let's stop it and talk." I interrupted.
Isa was trying to push Steven so he let go of her hand but she lost balance and fell down.
Everyone at the party started laughing.
"Isa are you okay?" I asked while helping her to get up.
Her eyes were focused on the front, I looked their and regretted it instantly.
Conrad was kissing a girl.
"Who are you?" the girl asked.
"Who are you?" Isa asked in the same tone.
"I'm Nicole and I went to the deb ball with Conrad last year."
"I thought you said deb balls were bullshit." I said while looking at Conrad.
"I didn't." he simply said.
"Well you're an asshole, Conrad." Isa said and she took my hand and we walked away.

☆☆☆☆

I was sitting by the bonfire alone for maybe like half an hour. Isa was talking to a guy and he seemed genuine and nice so I didn't disturb her. All of a sudden the silent environment turned riotous. The gas station dude looked like he got himself into a fight with a guy. It was Conrad.
Shit.
"What's your problem man?" Conrad sounded annoyed.
"It's just one bear man..it's a party relax." the dude replied he sounded so chill.
"No..give me my beer back."
"stop stop..you're drunk just give him the beer." Nicole insisted.
"maybe you should listen to your lady." the dude responded.
"give me my beer back." Conrad sounded more annoyed now and he pushed the dude.
"both of you stop it..just stop it." I said.
The gas station guy was pushing Conrad and he laid a punch right in my face. I don't know if he did that intentionally or by mistake but I fell straight on the ground and it was hurting so much.
"What the fuck!" Conrad now punched that dude and the fight was getting bad.
Isa and Steven helped me to get up.
"Evei are you alright..damn she got a nose bleed." Isa sounded worried.
"Shit..Here you can use this handkerchief." Steven said while he handed me his handkerchief.
Jeremiah finally succeed in stopping the fight and someone suddenly shouted that the cops are coming.

☆☆☆☆

We went home accompanied by the police officers. Laurel took care of the moment and saved us all from some big trouble. Once the Officers left, Laurel turned to us.
"How could you guys be so irresponsible?" Laurel said.
"Mom it wasn't a big deal." Steven spoke up.
"not a big deal?" she asked surprisingly.
"I would say getting picked up by the cops for underage drinking is a pretty big deal." she continued.
"Laurel I didn't drink tonight. I was the dd, I swear." Jeremiah said.
"You're the oldest..what has gotten into you?" Laurel said while looking at Conrad.
"And when did you two leave the house?What in the world are you wearing?"
"It's Taylors and why am I the only one who's not allowed to go outside?" Belly said.
"You should have told us, how did you even get there?"
"We walked." Isa replied.
"You should know better than to walk that far down the beach alone at night."
I was avoiding Laurel's eyes till now..I felt extremely guilty.
"Evelyn this wasn't expected from you." Laurel said.
"I..I am sorry aunt." I said in a feeble voice.
"Mom can you stop treating us like a kid?" Belly said.
"If you want to be treated like an adult you need to act like one."
"We're sorry, Laurel." Jeremiah said.
"Just go to bed guys." she sighed.
