Kiss Me

Chapter 3- I'm just a teenage dirt bag baby

All of my life I've never really had friends, I've made one friend my whole entire life. I usually just sit home, I never went to school dances, or any school events at all. Music was basically all I did, nothing else. I was what you could say, 'a teenage dirt bag' like the wheatus song.

"Come on Casey, you have to come to this party. Don't tell me you don't wanna go on a road trip with your bestfriend?" Kayla spoke.

"It's not that , I don't wanna go on a road trip to LA. It's just I've never been to a party, and I don't even think that they would want me there." I replied.

"Come on, the party is on Friday. It's Wednesday, I'll give you a day to think about it. Please we just graduated high school we have the freedom to do whatever we want. It's LA, Casey, all I'm asking you to do is think. For me?" Kayla spoke walking out of my apartment.

I want to go well because I could see Calum. But at the same time I didn't because I've never experienced a party. Thanks Kayla for doing this to me! I cursed inside of my head.

It was about eleven o'clock now, I decided It was time for me to go to sleep. That way I could have a clear head when I think about this in the morning.

I woke up with a small cramp in my knees, I stood up and yawned. I took my phone off the dresser, two missed calls from Kayla. I called back.

"What is it?" I asked.

"Have you made up your mind?" she asked.

"Yes," I spoke. "Fine, but you cannot force me to talk to any guys, or anybody at all. I'm only talking to you, Okay?" I asked.

"Fine , I won't force you to do anything. But oh my god we're gonna have so much fun. You better go pack, and I'll see you tonight. We'll start driving around nine." se hung up and I began to pack my clothes.

I wasn't planning on telling Calum, I kind of want it to be a surprise. If I even do see him, that would be sick if I saw him at the party. While waiting for Kayla I decided to watch movies. The Breakfast Club, and Pretty in Pink, were the first two I wanted to watch. And then I watched old Disney shows like Boy Meets World the rest of the time. I lost track of time, when I heard a knock at my door.

"Come in!" I called.

"Are you ready for our road trip bestie?" Kayla asked.

"Definitely." I picked up my bag and went down stairs. "Hey Kayla, where's your car? All I see is this convertible with no top." I said puzzled.

"I rented a car, the red convertible that's mine. " She said with a smirk. "What I want to seem cool at the party. Oh and I rented a hotel so we could spend a few extra days there."

"Wow Kayla you really went all out on this. And on top of it I might get to see-" I cut myself off right there. I had forgotten that Kayla told me she listens to 5 seconds of summer, I haven't told her that I've been talking to Calum. Hopefully that isn't her favorite she'll be pissed the fuck off.

"Who? Who do you know in LA?" she asked.

"No body, it's no one that you know." I spoke shortly.

"Come tell me, does Casey have a boyfriend?" she laughed while poking me.

"I'll tell you if we see him, okay? And right now we're just friends." I said hopping into her car, well rental car.

"I've got Halsey." Kayla said pulling out a CD. "And I've got Nirvana." I said with a smirk.

The whole trip was filled music, laughing and talking. Kayla even got me to listen to what she likes to call '5sos'. And they're not that bad, they're actually kind of punk rock. When we got to LA it was 4 in the afternoon and I hadn't slept at all, but I was used to it I never really get much sleep anyways. Kayla went straight to the hotel and the first thing I thought about was swimming. I put my swimsuit on and grabbed a towel. We were on the highest floor of the hotel, and It went up pretty high so it took awhile to get to the bottom floor.

When I finally got to the bottom floor, I saw that there were thousands of girls crowded in a big circle. That was kind of weird, but I just blew it off and went to the pool. It was crowded here too. "Forget it!!" I don't even want to swim any more, I picked up my towel and ran back to the elevator.

On my way down the hallway, I saw a guy with blonde hair and a lip piercing. I couldn't really see his face because he had sunglasses, but he looked hot. And he was wearing a nirvana shirt so that's a plus. "Kayla, when does the party start?" I asked as I walked through the hotel room door.

"About nine or ten. It's four fifteen right now." she informed.

"Well I'll take a nap, wake me up at eight." I flopped back on the bed and sighed not even bothering to take my swimsuit off.

I took what seemed to be a well deserved nap, and Kayla finally woke me up at eight twenty. Which gave me about twenty minutes to take a shower. And an hour and twenty to do my makeup, hair, pick out my outfit and get dressed. When I got out of the shower I dried my hair quickly.

I picked out my outfit and It wasn't really anything special. It was a nirvana shirt, an oversized flannel, a choker, high waisted blue striped shorts, black tights, and black doc martins. I curled my hair, but It was more wavy than curly which I was fine with. And I finally did my makeup, still nothing special just concealer, my eyebrows, eyeliner, and mascara. I was finally ready for the party, it was just now turning ten.

"Ready to go?" Kayla asked.

"Sure." I said running a hand through my hair.

It took us about a half an hour to get there, getting us there about ten thirty. And the party was already crowded and crazy.

"Casey where's your friend that you told me about this party is pretty crazy. You'd think he'd be here." Kayla called stumbling over to me drunkenly. It was only twelve and she was smashed drunk.

"I thought I told you, he might not be here he's pretty busy." I said with a laugh and taking another drink.

"Well if you see him tell him to come and meet me." she laughed walking away with some random guy. I guess she really knows how to party, it wouldn't surprise me with all the times she snuck out to go to one in high school.

I snuck off from the crowd of people I seemed to have gotten stuck in, and made my way to the bathroom. God what am I doing here? As I finished using the bathroom I washed my hands. "Hurry up, you've been in here forever." an accent called that I'm sure I knew, but I couldn't quite place my finger on it.

I picked my drink off of the sink, and tried to open the door. It seemed to be stuck so I pushed and pushed, until finally it swung open and I ran into the guy that was waiting to use the bathroom. "Casey?" the accent asked.

"Calum?" I asked back. Wow I had forgotten how cute he was, and I had gotten lost in my words.

"Fancy meeting you here." He said with a smirk and helping me up off of the ground.

"I didn't think I'd actually get to see you!" I yelled over the music that grew louder and louder by the second.

"Follow me." he said grabbing my hand and leading me into a room. He finally found a room that teenagers weren't making out in, and we sat on the bed. "What are you doing in LA?" he asked.

"Well my friend Kayla found out that there was a party here. And she's crazy about parties, like I didn't even want to come, but then I remembered that you live here. So I thought that maybe I'd run into you at this party, and here you are." I spoke with a smile.

It was quiet for a few seconds, until the silence was interrupted by a kiss. I was right his plump lips were too hard not to resist. I told myself coming here not to let his Australian charms overcome me. As the kiss deepened, I slowly found myself making out with him just like every other person at this party.

Calum pulled away and pushed his for head to mine. "You don't know how long I've waited to do that." We've known each for a month and we just now kissed each other.

"We have to keep this a secret." I said with a smile and kissing him again. "I couldn't imagine how pissed your fans would be."
