70 Days Of Summer

Day 11

So guys I have no idea how to do italics on this phone so I will just type normally when send a message to my reader fans until I find out how to italic. Anyways I'm super excited that I'm 1/7 through the book and although it's not much I want to thank my supporters for reading my books and a note to everyone whether you love or hate my book. VOTE AND COMMENT!!!!!!!!

I wake up at 10 am and find Cassie and aunt Rosie asleep. I glance at my phone and find 5 missed calls from Darrell. I wonder why he called. I call him back and he seems very stressed and angry. He shouts in the phone,

" where the hell are you guys?! I sent Cassie multiple messages and missed calls. Band practice was supposed to start 2 hours ago. Wait is that snoring?" He hears aunt Rosie letting out a deep snore and asks,

" wait, are you guys still in bed. This is crazy." He hangs up and I wake up Cassie jumping up a down on her bed. That wakes up aunt Rosie.

"Clara dear, do stop that racket. It's only 5am," mumbles aunt Rosie.

" well,actually auntie Rosie it's almost 10:30 and I just got off the phone with Darrell. Apparently band practice started at 8 and they are totally pissed," I explain.

Cassie jumps out of bed repetitively muttering,

"Shit."

She pulls on a black Dior turtleneck and Armani black jeans and brushes her teeth and hair. Aunt Rosie gracefully trots out of bed in her skimpy metallic pink lace nightgown, kicks Cassie out of the bathroom and shuts herself in there.

Cassie shoves on her black hiking boots and screams,

"Aunt Rosie we don't have time for your shenanigans. We need to go! Shit! Get out!"

I'm already dressed in my Chloe chiffon layover Aqua blue top and Joes white super skinny jeans, with a pair of short white wedges and my hair ties into a braid.

We sit for 20 minutes in the room waiting for aunt Rosie to come out and Cassie screams repetitively for her to get out. When she comes out she looks completely different. Her hair is very silky and straightens much longer then usual. Her face looks soft and young and welcoming and very neutral even though there are pounds of makeup on her. She is wearing a strapless, metallic gold fake leather, very short, jumpsuit with white rhinestone studs around her upper chest. She has paired the outfit with a pair of 6 inch stilettos.

" I'm ready" she purrs.

Cassie is speechless and I comment kindly,

" you look very nice."

We get into the limo that aunt rouse has booked and pick up the guys from their 1 star motel. All the guys are chill except Darrell who is angry and annoyed. We come out to get them and suddenly Darrell's jaw drops when he sees aunt Rosie.

" hey.... Guys" he stutters completely taken aback by the hot aunt.

Cassie runs up to him, squeezes him in a hug, and smooches him on the lips which makes him uncomfortable.

" come now, we are already late," calls aunt Rosie giving Darrel one of those sexy ' your mine' smile/look. On the way to the studio Cassie cuddles against Darrell which makes him very uncomfortable. Once we get to the studio I run straight to the lounge and sure as ever, Jesse is playing pool looking hotter than ever. We talk for awhile, then kiss for awhile then talk and kiss and more kissing until my lips are bruised from so much kissing. The best part is the whole time I'm not even thinking about Berun and actually, I like not thinking about him. It's relaxing. I get called down for lunch which is filet mignon with cafe de Paris sauce. The band is discussing our trip to Jamaica for the music video, but I'm just sitting there smiling like a dumb horse. Cassie notices me smiling so much and then she starts smiling and we smile together. I avert my eyes from our smiling faces and see Darrell, Cassie's Darrel, slipping his hand under aunt Rosie's dress. Proper under and her dress is really short so I wonder where that hand is. They share a secret smile and I look away to check Cassie did not see, but thank god she is in a deep conversation with Gregory. I take a deep breath and finish off my filet mingon not looking at Darrell or aunt Rosie. I stay for a little while after lunch to see the brand record some songs because believe it or not my lips are still kiss bruised. I'm sitting there for 30 minutes when suddenly Darrel scream something to the band then walks out. I can't hear because in the studio the group is behind soundproof glass walls which does something for the recording but who cares? Cassie runs after him, then aunt Rosie, and me. The other guys just hang back oblivious to the situation. I rush out and after a few turns find Cassie crouching against a wall, face in her arms sobbing like there is no tomorrow. I slowly walk up to her and ask,

" what happened?"

Even though I know what happened completely.

" Darrell.... And I.... Broke up....I just don't understand why," she chokes while sobbing.

" I'm so sorry! Where did he go?" I ask sympathetically.

" outside" Cassie sobs.

I run outside, ignoring Cassie's call to 'stop' and 'come back.' This has to end once and for all. I barge outside of the studio doors and look left and right only to find aunt Rosie and Darrel grinding against the studio wall. Cassie runs out of the studio and sees what I've been staring at for 3 minutes.

" you pervert" Cassie says through gritted teeth directing to both of them. Aunt Rosie gives her a smug smile, looks at her blotchy face, and says mockingly,

" oh, has little Cassie been crying because her boyfriend finds her aunt much more appealing and... Sexy." She goes back to kissing Darrell, and then Cassie says,

" don't worry, mum will find out about this. Trust me. Oh and Darrell, are you going to be the one to break the news to the band that Luxembourg is cancelled."

Darrell pulls away from aunt Cassie and panicks,

" woah cas! What do you mean cancelled? I can't help falling for your hot aunt."

Cassie runs back inside and breaks the news to the band. Aunt Rosie and Darrell try to convince them that they could continue the band without casual but they have better hearts and join Cassie and my side. They argue for a while but I slip upstairs to the lounge to say goodbye to Jesse. I explain the situation to him and why I have to leave early and he totally understands. "I'm going to miss you," he says quietly looking into my eyes, and holding my chin gently. Screw it! We kiss violently yet passionately and continue kissing on the beanbag. It's not like we're doing anything bad, I mean we are fully clothed and basically I'm just lying on top of him and we are kissing. I slowly unbutton his shirt just to feel his manly chest once more before we leave, and then I stop kissing and lie my head on his chest. I think I fall asleep because I wake up in a crappy, sock smelling, run down room. I wake up and find mark making PBJ sandwiches and I mutter,

" where am I?"

" good your awake! The guys are resting because we are leaving for Ohio tonight and Cassie has gone to your hotel to pick up the stuff. We're all packed and we put together money to get us on the cheapest flight back home. The flight is at 10, and its 7 now so I'm making dinner and then we will catch a cab to the airport. Turns out Darrell and aunt Rosie are heading for a couples retreat in Luxembourg where we were supposed to be shooting the video," explains mark. Mark brings a plate of PBJ's to where glen and Gregory are sitting in their room. Now it hits me! This is their shabby motel! I hear a door click and Cassie walks into the room with 2 suitcases.

" hey guys! Clara your awake, that's great!" Exclaims Cassie. Her face looks very red and her eyes look much smaller, I wonder - has she been drinking? She doesn't seem to know about me falling asleep on Jesse's chest, otherwise she would be giggling or laughing or doing something Cassie does. I decide not to talk about Jesse thing or Darrel so I just say,

" hey!"

We quickly munch the sandwiches and catch a cab to the airport. We sip Starbucks spending our last spare cash and wait for the flight. Once we are all seated, me next to Cassie, she orders a small bottle of Sauvignon blanc champaigne.

" Cassie" I say in horror.

She takes a swig straight from the bottle and then says,

" what? My boyfriend just dumped me for my ancient aunt and is spending a week with her in a couples retreat where they will make love day and night. I'm allowed to have a few drinks, besides mum left me her credit card."

I relax a little, I mean this was very harsh on her. I try to get comfy but there is something in my wedges scratching my foot. I notice a paper sticking out of my wedges and pick it up. I unfold it and it has a number on it and says,

Love Jesse.

Awwww. He left me his number. I mean I really do like him, but c'mon I know that Buren will always be my true love. Jesse was just a summer fling, some fun, a distraction from everything with Berun. I rip the paper, lean my head against the plane window, and fall asleep.
