I slept in till I felt my shoulder being shook. I rolled over and put my face in my pillow. I didn't want to wake up yet. My shoulder got nudged yet again and I curled into a ball. The moment my head got slapped, I knew Nicole was trying to wake me up. Mom and Dad wouldn't hit me in order to wake me up. But Nicky on the other hand, would do anything to get what she wanted.

I rolled on my back and opened my eyes. I turned my head to face Nicole and she had a huge grin on her face.

"What?" I asked her.

"Hi," she giggled.

I went to close my eyes again, but Nicole hit my arm. "No sleeping."

"What time is it?" I asked rubbing my eyes.

"Eleven," she shrugged.

I jolted upward and exhaled. "Eleven?"

"Yeah. You partied really hard last night," she said.

"Wow," I sighed,

"Oh, your parents went to pick something up. So it's just us," Nicole shrugged.

"Okay," I nodded.

"Are you okay?" she asked.

I nodded. "Like you said. Partied too hard last night."

My phone buzzed and I looked at the caller ID. Chase. What was he calling me for? I put the phone to my ear and asked, "Hello?"

"Hey. Have a good birthday?" he asked.

"Uh, yeah. It was fun. Thanks for asking," I said.

"Well, hey. Me and my new friends are throwing a party tonight. You and Nicole wanna come?" he asked.

I sighed. "I don't know if my parents would let me go. Plus, I don't know where you live."

"It can't hurt to ask, and I'll text you the address. C'mon, it'll be fun," he said.

"I'll ask," I said.

"Great! It starts at six," he said and hung up.

I sighed and set the phone next to me and looked at Nicole. "Wanna go to a party?"

"Yes!" she giggled.

"Well, let's go ask my mom," I said getting off my bed.

"Mrs. Barns," Nicole called.

"Yes?" Mom asked. "Oh, look who's up!" she giggled, seeing me.

"Chase invited us to his party tonight. Can we go?" she asked.

"Chase? Chase Jackson?" Mom asked.

"Yeah, Mom, he was at the party last night," I said.

"Let me google him," Mom said sitting behind her computer.

"He's my boss's nephew," I said.

"Oh. Then fine. You can go. But I want you home at eleven," Mom said sternly.

"Great! Thank you!" Nicole yipped.

All day long, Nicole made me try on various shirts, skirts, and jeans. She was always so ready for parties. Given that I rarely got to go to a party, Nicole chose my outfit for me and did my hair and makeup. She made me look like some model that just stepped off the catwalk and is on a break.

When we were both ready, we took pictures. Chase texted the details of the party to mine and Nicole's phone. She was texting Chase, giggling, while I put in a cute little barrett. I really hoped that Chase was good to her. (If they ever got together). Nicole was a really good person--and like a sister. She didn't deserve to be mistreated.

"You know..." Nicole laughed as she sent a text. "I'm actually really starting to like Chase."

Normally, I'd be all gitty and happy for her. Which I was, but apart of me felt slightly hurt. Like someone stabbed my heart a little. Like, not stabbed, but...poked my heart with a sword just a bit.

"Lexi?" Nicole asked when I didn't say anything.

"Oh, yeah. Sorry. Um, what do you like about him?" I asked.

"Well, for starters, he's hot! And he's actually very sweet. He's funny. Charming. I think he likes me too," she smiled.

I looked at her through the mirror, scared to actually look at her for some reason. "Well, he better not hurt you."

"Trust me," she smiled. "Chase doesn't look like a heartbreaker to me."

"He did when I first saw him," I shrugged.

"Well, you should get to know him better," Nicole smiled. "We should go."

"Okay," I said throwing my jacket on.

Nicole drove us to Chase's house and there were lots of cars and trucks parked along the street. We made it to the front door and I looked at his interior. Leather couches, big stereo, lots of people... It was crazy. I looked at Nicole, and she was gawking at everything she saw. I have always wondered what went on in her head.

"Hey!" Chase smiled at us--well, probably just Nicole.

"Hi!" Nicole yipped, hugging him.

"Well, just have fun!" Chase smiled.

"Okay," Nicole smiled at him as he walked away. She faced me, a huge smile on her face. I laughed and shook my head.

"Go talk to him," I said.

Her face fell. "But what are you gonna do?"

"Nicky," I smiled. "It's a party. I'll just meet some people or something."

"You sure?" she asked.

"Yes!" I said, practically pushing her towards Chase.

She shook her head at me, laughing, and headed in Chase's direction. I sighed, put my hands in my jacket pockets, and looked around. Music boomed in my ears as everyone laughed and danced. Almost everywhere I looked, someone was kissing someone else. I saw Ben with Anais. I smiled. Normally, I'd be jealous of Anais, but she was just too nice. And Ben was happy with her.

I scanned to find something to do. I couldn't exactly dance well. I felt a tap on my shoulder. I turned around and a guy--a really hot guy--was standing there with a smile on his face and a red solo cup in his hand. "I'm Clex."

I smiled. "I'm Alexis, but you can call me Lexi."

"Well, Lexi, would you like to dance with me?" Clex asked.

"I must warn you," I laughed. "I'm worse than Ally Dawson off of Austin and Ally when it comes to dancing."

"Oh, come on," he laughed. "I'm sure you're not that bad."

I put my hands up. "Don't say I didn't warn you."

He nodded and we started dancing. I tried to copy him. He handed me the cup and I looked in it. It looked like tea, so I took a sip. Ew!! Definately not tea!!

"Bleh!" I laughed. "What is that?"

"Beer, duh," he laughed.

"I don't like it," I said.

"Okay," he nodded and tossed the cup aside.

He pulled me close to him, making my feet come to a halt.

"I want to get to know you, Lexi," he smiled down at me. Did I mention he was extremely tall?!

I couldn't look away from his dreamy, hypnotizing, blue eyes. The feel of his hand on my lower back sent a tingle up my spine. Suddenly, nothing else existed. No one else was here. The music was a hum. I could only see him. I was tempted to kiss him. But his voice, broke my thoughts.

"What are you staring at?" he smiled a cute little half smile.

I swallowed, hoping my voice would work. "Nothing."

"You wanna kiss me as much as I wanna kiss you right now?" he searched my eyes.

"I barely know you," I whispered.

"So?" he chuckled. "It's not like it'll mean anything."

I sighed. "It will to me."

"What?" he searched my eyes again.

"I haven't exactly...been...kissed," I admitted.

"Oh, come on," he said. "Someone as hot as you never been kissed?"

I shrugged. "I guess you're the only guy that finds me attractive."

"Hell yeah!" he nodded. "Look at you!"

"Thanks," I smiled, trying to hide my blush.

He kissed my heated cheek. He made his way down to my neck and worked his way up, kissing my nose, then my forehead.

"You have soft skin," he whispered in my ear.

"I do my best," I whispered. Should I be doing something?

"You need a job?" he asked.

"N-no," I whispered. "I have one."

"Need more money?" he asked, kissing my neck.

"No, I'm fine," I said.

"Let me know," he said.

"Sure," I said.

I felt his tounge make circles on my neck. I was frozen in place. Was he drunk? Since he was so tall, I couldn't see over him. He kissed my chest and I backed up. Nearly fell, but I backed up. Clex looked at me confused. "Are you okay?"

I swallowed, finally able to breathe. "I'm not comfortable with what you're doing."

"I'm sorry," he apologized.

"I'm gonna get something to drink," I said, making my way to the kitchen.

I opened up the refridgerator and grabbed a water bottle. I shut it and leaned against the counter. I chugged half the bottle and looked around. Nicole and Chase were talking with smiles on their faces. I smiled to myself. I guess Chase wasn't what I thought he was. Not a heartbreaker.

"Hi," Clex's voice made me jump.

"You scared me," I looked at him.

"Sorry. So is she your friend?" he asked.

"Yeah, we've been friends for a long time. She's like my sister," I smiled.

"That's nice," he said.

"Hey," a guy came up to me and Clex. "Want this?"

"What is it?" I asked looking at the bottle.

"Lemonade," Clex said taking it from the guy. The guy walked away and Clex handed it to me.

"I have water," I smiled at him, holding up my waterbottle.

"Taste this. It's Mike's Lemonade. It's good."

I shrugged, and took it. I took a sip and it was good. I took another drink and felt like chugging it. I was seriously thirsty!!

"Slow down, chick," he laughed, taking it from me.

"Sorry," I laughed. "It's good."

"Here," he said giving it back.

"Hey, where'd my water go?" I asked, noticing it disappeared.

Clex shrugged.

I did too and chugged the rest of my lemonade. My head began to hurt and I threw the empty bottle away.

"Want another one?" Clex chuckled.

"After my headache goes away," I said.

He kissed my forehead lightly and looked in my eyes. "Better?"

I laughed. Next thing I knew, I had another lemonade. It made my headache subside. I looked at Clex, who suddenly had this...radiancy about him. I held up one finger and went to Nicole.

"Hey," she smiled at me.

"I'm hot," I said.

"Take your jacket off," she shrugged.

I looked down, forgetting I had a jacket on. "Oh. Yeah. Thanks."

"Lexi, are you--? Are you drunk?" she asked.

"What?" I scoffed. "I only had two lemonades! How can I get drunk off lemonade?"

Chase's eyes got wide and he looked at me. "You drank two lemonades?"

"That's what I said," I laughed.

"Lexi, that wasn't normal lemonade," he said.

I laughed. "Was it 'magic' lemonade?"

"No, Chase, she isn't just drunk--she's wasted!" Nicole looked over me.

"That lemonade had alcohol in it," Chase said.

I scoffed. "Okay. Hey, Nicole, are you cold?"

"Um, a little, why?" she asked.

"Can I have your skirt, and you take my jeans?" I asked.

"Um, yeah," she nodded.

I undid my jeans, but Nicole stopped me. "Not here!"

I laughed and she led me to the bathroom.

"Stay out of a bar, Lexi," she laughed.

"Why?" I asked.

"Because once you get drunk, you'll either sleep with someone or try to sceduce someone," she said handing me her skirt.

I handed her my jeans and laughed. "Okay. Sure."

We walked out of the bathroom and I wrapped my arms around Clex's neck.

"You okay?" he chuckled.

"Yes!" I said.

"May I kiss you?" he asked.

I kissed his neck, and made my way to his Adam's Apple. He kissed my head, then my nose.

"Not tonight," I giggled.

I then fell asleep at that point--I think.
