The pounding of the bass vibrated through the ground underneath me. I took another sip of my soda and looked across at the bodies tossing and turning to the music. House parties weren't really my thing, but when you have a friend like Serena Robinson, they have to be. It was no use when I had told I her I didn't want to go. She'd complain that I was no fun. When I tried to use the "my mom said no" excuse, she called my mom and started to rant about how I should go. It's not that I didn't love Serena. She was like a sister to me. Serena always ditched me though. Here I am, leaning against a wall all alone. I could hear her moaning in the closet with her boyfriend Zakk. Trust me, I didn't want to know either.
I pulled my phone out of my back pocket and went outside to get some fresh air. The entire house reeked of booze. It was starting to give me a headache. I tapped on the contacts icon and smiled as the name Kylar McAdams <3 appeared. I bit my bottom lip before pressing call. It took a total of 3 rings before he finally answered. "Hey Ky," I grinned.
"Elodie, hey. I was hoping you'd call," his voice sounded tired. He must of just woken up.
"I just woke you up, didn't I?" I let a giggle escape my lips. He let out a sigh before telling me yes. "I can let you sleep if you want me to,"
"Nah, it's alright. I had to get up for class anyways,"
"How is it in Europe?" I questioned. Ky had been put into a foreign exchange student program. Every guy went head over heels for the new girl Avanna back here. She had a British accent, which apparently made her 10 times hotter. Ky was pretty popular in Europe as well, so I've heard.
"It's wonderful. So many beautiful faces, but none compare to yours," I felt my face grow hot.
"God you're so cheesy," I grinned. I heard his lips part, he must of smiled.
"I love you Elodie. Promise you haven't had a one night stand with any of the football players?" I let out a loud laugh. A couple a few yards away gave me a glare.
"Yeah Ky. I'm like the new school slut," I twirled a lock of hair around my finger while I continued to converse with Kylar. After another 20 minutes he finally had to say goodbye.
"Class is starting soon. Gotta go. Talk to you later babe," he made a kissing noise before hanging up. I let out a sigh before turning back to the house. I found my teeth lightly tugging at my bottom lip. My mouth was in a smile I couldn't contain. I suddenly heard a loud pound at the door. Serena came tumbling out.
"Yo! Ellie, we gotta go," she let out a hysterical laugh before tugging along Zakk. She giggled as she was slung onto his shoulder.
"I'll drive," I muttered, pulling the keys out of my leather purse. "Please don't throw up in the back of my truck,"
As I walked across the freshly mowed grass, a group of angry girls stormed out of the gigantic house. All of them were soaked in what looked to be Coca Cola. "I HOPE YOU BURN IN HELL SERENA!" A blonde hollered. "YOU HEAR ME? YOU'RE DEAD MEAT ON MONDAY!!" Serena let out another bubbly giggle.
"What the hell did she do?" I asked.
"I shook up a bottle and threw it into the air. It was like a firework going off. Wooooosh!" She smiled, making gestures with her hands as she told the story. I shook my head before starting the car and adjusting the mirror. Zakk brushed a lock of blonde hair out of her face. She laid her head in his lap, looking up into his eyes. Serena grabbed his jaw before pulling him to her lips. I looked away quickly, feeling a bang of jealous rush through me.
Ky.
I began to turn out of the street, and went to drop off the love birds at Zakk's house. It was mostly a silent ride there, except for Serena's slurred mumbles and their smacking of lips. Once I pulled up to Zakk's tan house, he ruffled his light brown hair and thanked me. "Serena's a handful sometimes, huh?" I nodded.
