Who's In?

Tyler's POV

It was close to 10pm and I'd just finished my last set at the local vegan cafe, Mosaics. I noticed my friends car had just pulled up at the front ready to head over to Matt Parker's 18th Party.

There were 4 people in the car, I could hear the music blaring and watched as smoke filled up the inside of the car. Shaking my head I waved at my friends who had cheekily honked the horn.

"Thanks Tyler". My Boss came over and slipped me a $100's cash. "Another great night, well done." He patted me on my shoulder.

"No problem, again next week?" I asked.

"Of course. Listen let's just make it your regular until you finish Year 12. I know you could do with the money and people around here love your stuff." He gave me a smile.

"Thanks Karl, I really appreciate it."

I got up, taking my guitar and walked out towards Jacob's car. By the time I got there the boot was up and I carefully placed my guitar inside. I jumped on the backseat.

"Hey Homies, how we doing?" I asked looking at the guys. I lit up my cigarette and took in each face.

Jacob who was driving, Dean was the passenger, Tom sat behind the driver and Robbie was seated in the middle. These guys were my mates and we were tight as f&ck.

"So you pumped for this party or what?" Jacob yelled.

"Yeah man, this is all I've been thinking about today, seriously can't wait". I replied. Dean cracked open a beer and handed it to me.

"Man, I hope Hunter is there tonight. I really want that bitch." Dean smiled as he tilted his head towards the backseat.

"That girl is mighty fine, but have you guys seen Sharni lately? She's it for me, if I can f&ck her tonight I'd die a happy man." Tom fist pumped.

The guys were talking about all the hot chicks they wanted to conquer. I just tuned out, I'd heard it all before.

For me there was only one chick, but she was totally untouchable. Especially to a guy like me. I knew there was no way that Natalia Swarchovski would be at this party and even if she was, she'd never choose me. Natalia never went to anything social or even dated anyone from school. She was such an enigma.

The drive was quick it took only a few minutes to get to Caves from Swansea. We found a parking spot almost right outside the front of the house. Someone had just obviously left because there were cars parked everywhere.

We all piled out with our drinks and headed towards the house. The music was loud, there was definitely a DJ. We passed a few scattered bodies on the lawn, kids who were either talking in groups, even a few who were making out.

"Tonight is gunna be the bomb. Last big one before Year 12, let's make it count." Dean yelled and we all cheered and opened the front door.
