Chapter 64 : American Idiots and The Summer of '69

We stumbled out of the house and Luke fell on the grass.

"That's what happens when you have legs that are 936 feet tall," Michael slurred and we all burst out laughing.

We closed the door and that only somewhat muffled the music blaring from the speakers that were inside.

The whole house erupted into a series of cheers and screams. I shuffled to the gate and saw a couple jump into the pool and make a huge splash.

The water looked pink, it looked really pretty. I giggled.

"What is it?" Calum asked.

"They are jumping into the pink pool," I replied.

I turned back to Calum and noticed that Luke, Ashton, and Michael were already crossing the street.

"Hey, they left us," I said.

Calum grabbed my hand and started jogging towards them. But we kept on running diagonally and Calum almost ran into a bush.

"I don't want to be an american idiot," Michael said.

"Stop blowing my mind fuck America," Luke slurred.

"Don't want a nation under the new media," Ashton continued.

"Can you hear the sound of hysteria," I said.

"stop blowing my mind fuck America," Luke said again.

"That party was soooo fun," I said leaned against Calum as we continued walking in the dark.

"The ground looks so far away," Michael said and reached for the concrete.

I looked down and the sidewalk looked like it was getting smaller, or my mind was getting higher.

"You're right, Mikey," I agreed.

"Man, I'm hungry, I can really go for a pizza, maybe a burger on the side. But some spaghetti sounds really good right now," Luke said.

"I want chips and some pancakes with egg and bacon," I felt my stomach rumble.

"I got my first real six-string, bought it at the five-and-dime," Ashton said.

"Played it till my fingers bled, was the summer of '69" Michael said.

We all held hands and sang Summer of '69 as we walked.

"Me and some guys from school, had a band and we tried real hard," I slurred.

"Jimmy quit, Jody got married," Calum said.

"I shoulda known we'd never get far," Luke continued.

"Oh when i look back now, that summer seemed to last forever," Michael said a little loud.

"And if I had a choice, Ya- I'd always wanna be there," Ashton said.

"Those were the best days of my life," Calum raised his voice.

"Aint no used in complainin, when you got a job to do" I said matching Michael's tone.

"Spent my evenings down at the drive-in and that's when I met you," Calum said and wiggled his eyebrows at me.

"Standin' on your mama's porch, you told me that you'd wait forever," Luke said and raised his voice.

We began singling loudly.

"Oh and when you held my hand, I knew that it was now or never," Ashton shouted.

"Those were the best days of my life!" Michael said.

"Back in the summer of '69!" We all shouted in unison.

We began swinging our hands back and forth and continued singing until we reached my house.

I brought my key out and tried to unlock the door, but kept missing the keyhole.

"Give me some light," I said.

I heard the boys moving around and finally a white flash of light shinned on me and I was able to unlock the door.

"Fuckin finally," I slurred.

I opened the door and we nearly crashed inside.

I ran into the kitchen and began shoving food into my mouth. I was so hungry. I had the munchies bad.

"Save some for us," Michael said and began eating chips.

We ate two bags of Doritos, string cheese, a hot dog, a box of cookies and doughnuts.

I checked the time, 5:22 AM.

Luke yawned and sat on the living room floor.

"Hey, this carpet is pretty comfy," He laid down, closed his eyes and immediately began snoring.

Ashton crashed out on the couch. Michael collapsed on the other one.

"Where am I going to sleep?" Calum asked.

"You can sleep with me," I said.

Calum smirked at me and practically dragged me upstairs into my room.

As soon a the door was closed he pressed his lips against mine. I could smell the alcohol on him. That only fueled my hormones.

I felt Calum lift my shirt and his hands gripped my waist. I pulled on his shirt and he helped me pull it off. I slid my hands down his chest and felt his muscles.

I threw my shirt on the ground and Calum's lips connected with my neck. He sucked on my neck and I let out a small moan. I ran my hands through his hair, he pulled me closer. His hands rubbed my thighs and my ripped skinny jeans joined my shirt on the floor. We were both breathing heavily.

Calum threw me on the bed and hovered over me. His lips attached to my neck as he let his hand explore my body.

We were engulfed into the flames of our hormonal passion.
