Leah's POV

Once school was over, I thought of running home because let's be honest it would have been quicker than having to wait for Michael to drive him home. But instead of waiting in the car like I usually did after school, I went to his locker where I knew he would be and drag him out by his hair. And like any other day, he was there at his locker, but today instead of having a small crowd of friends around him, there was only one person. That person was Luke Hemmings.

I didn't really care or mind that Luke was there, we used to be really good friends in middle school but not anymore. So I just walked up to them and said.

"Can you hurry up? Your ride is leaving in like 5 minutes." He turned around and noticed it was me talking.

"Don't worry about it, Luke is going to give me a ride home sis." He said.

After I heard that, it was my ticket out; all I wanted to do was go home and get ready for the party and pick up my best friend, Melanie (Martinez). Melanie wasn't in school today but she promised to come to the party with me.

As soon as I got home, I went up to my room and called her. I tried 2 times until she finally picked up.

"When am I picking you up?" I asked.

"No hello or hi? Wow I feel loved, anyway when does it start?" She asked, lol oops.

"About 9 but we have to make an entrance so I'm trying to get there at like 9:45" I explained, you know us teenagers, wanting to be cool.

"When does it end?" She asked. God, questions here questions there.

"I'm not sure, Michael usually sneaks in at like 3 in the morning so." I laughed.

"I'm going to say I'm spending the night at your house, I'll be there in 10 so we can chill out for a bit until the party." She said.

And hung up.

Melanie already knows what she's wearing, a cute baby blue mid-thigh dress with a baby blue matching bow. It was her signature look, she looks absolutely gorgeous overall. I just decided to wear a mid-thigh length red dress, and to be honest it looks quite cute on me. I didn't decide to do anything with my hair as I always would end up burning myself, went downstairs to put my red stilettos on to where I saw Melanie sat on my couch watching How I Met Your Mother, which is our favourite program, although she prefers Family Guy.

"Oh, hey Mel." I said.

"I kinda got here early, I was gonna go upstairs to you but How I Met Your Mother was on and I kind of just got caught up in it." She said.

"Ah well, it's fine, can't help a bit of tv aye?" I said as we both laughed.

I sat down with her, looking at her outfit which was gorgeous, we had to tell our fans on YouTube that we can't shoot a cover today as we both make music. She writes the songs with me and we both sing. It's fun, but she can't play an instrument so I have to play the guitar in a few of it. We have about 2K subscribers so we aren't small but we also aren't big. Just as the episode finished, Michael walked in. When he came in, he saw Melanie and for the past 6 years that Melanie has been my best friend, he has had a not-so-secret crush on her and it's super weird.

"What do you want Michael?" I said, only because it was getting awkward having him look at Melanie like that.

"Um, I was just looking for Tyrone, he legit just stole my fridge as he called me a green looking ass bogey." Michael said.

"Are you being serious? A fridge?" Melanie asked, laughing.

"Yeah, Tyrone is mental." He said, laughing.

I honestly do think Melanie likes him too, to be honest I find it a bit weird but whatever floats your boat me goat.

"Anyway, I think he went in the kitchen, but not with a fridge" Melanie said.

"Cool thanks, see you round." He said, smiling as he walked to the kitchen slowly, he was probably waiting for us to ask him to join us but we were perfectly fine on our own.

"We'll see you tonight I guess" I shouted.

The response that I got was a blunt "OK"

"Can't wait." Melanie shouted.

"Yeah, sure I'm gonna try and dance the best but try not to fall over when I'm drunk." Michael shouted back, laughing. Seems like he isn't blunt to her.

And before I knew it, me and Melanie were on our way to Ashton Irwin's party.
