It was few days after I saw Emerson at the grocery store when I was invited to my first party of this year. It was a party to 'kick off the senior year' so that ment the popular kids were obligated to invite Theodor and I as it was a party for the whole year, Which i wasn't complaining about.
For the rest of the week leading up to the party it was the talk of the whole school, as it was Emerson Todds party of coarse so it was supposedly going to be the party of the year.
It was finally the morning of the party and I had talked myself up to asking Emerson out tonight. Tonight would be it i knew it, it just felt right.
After a dreaded 5 hours of Theodor talking about 'how smashed he will be tonight' and 'how many girls he is going to rack in' I gave up on the rest of the day at school and ditched 6th period. It was only p.e so its not like it mattered, plus i had to think of a great way to get Emerson to agree to letting me take her out.
3 hours of thinking of stupid pick up lines later and it was finally time for the party. I showered my self and put on my best Plain black t-shirt and rolled up the sleeves with a pair of ripped black jeans and my vans.
I didn't exactly know where the party was as I was only new so i agreed to let Theodor to drive me. i did get there in one piece so i didn't have much to complain about except the fact that that boy just doesn't know when to shut the hell up.
We finally pulled up to her house and i wasn't to sure on what to expect but it certainly wasn't this. Her house was undoubtedly the largest and the most impressive property within this area.The gardens are stunning and beautifully presented. The entrance to the house is equally impressive, with two sets of electrically operated large wooden gates leading into the private courtyard and the majestic six stone pillared portico which surrounds its entrance. The house was easily 4 times the size of my own, Not that my house was the most impressive thing. It was hard for my mum to find a good enough house close to school whilst paying all the bills on her own. So i was happy that i had a roof over my head but honestly her home was just insane.
Before we could even step out of the car there was already thousands of drunk teenagers screaming and walking around along with beer bottles and plastic cups lining her massive house. By this point i honestly didn't know what i was getting into but all i knew was i would do anything to get Emerson Todd to agree to going on a date with me.
I entered the house needing to take an uncontrollable nervous piss. I walked down the extremly long hallway that was lined with kids attacking each other with their toungs and framed photos of the perfect family that was Emerson Todds. After barging through a bunch of drunk students grinding on each other i finally reached a bathroom only to my surprise the bathroom being locked for at least an hour and me not being sure if people were having sex in there or if someone was passed out in a puddle of their own vomit. After waiting so long i kind of just gave up and forgot about my pee anyway, so i left to try find Emerson.
After playing 2 games of beer pong and wondering around for an hour completely smashed i finally found my girl sitting on the couch of the 3rd floor of her home alone. I would be lying if i said i wasn't shitting my pants at this point, because i defiantly was. I was just a few feet away from the most popular, beautiful girl in the school.
I quietly walk over to the couch and sit next to Emerson. minutes pass when she finally relises i was sitting next to her.
"What are you doing up here? the party is down stairs" She politely informs me.
"oh i know, i just needed some space, now what is the host of the party doing up here?"
"same as you,i need space i guess"
"so where are your parents, surely you didn't do all this with there permission" I say after a few seconds of awkward silence.
"oh there out of town on business, Im home alone quite a lot actually"
"well theres something we have in common"
"oh do your parents work out of town to?" she says with the sweetest smile on her face but me not wanting to get into my fucked up storys of my past time i simply reply with,
"yeah something like that"
More and more seconds pass with Emerson texting and me wiredly twiddling my thumbs thinking of something, anything to say to her.
"so how about you let me take you on a date?" i finally blurt out and instantly regret.
"wow calm yourself, you havent even told me your name"
"oh yeah sorry im Carter, Carter Matthews"
"well Carter, Carter Matthews, you seem like a great guy but im not the dating type you know" Even when she was trying to reject me she was amazing.
"Okay well i guess im just going to have to try and change your mind then"
"Okay Carter, you can always try hahah"
