" So what are you gonna wear ? " Natalie asked me as I opened my locker . " Probably just some jeans and a t-shirt . " I shrugged .

" That's it ? "

I nodded . " No no no , honey . I'm picking your outfit and that's final . " She grinned .

" But — "

" No buts ! Just thank yous . " Natalie walked away and turned around the corner . I laughed and shook my head as I closed my locker .

I turned around and found Chase leaning on the locker next to mine . " Mornin' , Myers . " He said , taking a tooth pick out of his mouth .

" jEeZuS cHrIsT yoU sCaRed mE . " I said , trying to recover from the jump scare .

He just laughed and took a step closer . " So , you comin' tonight ? "

My face turned red as I slowly nodded . " I'll see you tonight ." He quickly kissed my cheek and walked away , slipping his hands into his pockets .

I bit my lip as I watched him walk away . Oh dear god . Maybe I should let Natalie pick my outfit .

" I've picked out five different outfits . Mostly from my closet so you're welcome . " Natalie smiled .

I rolled my eyes . " This is gonna take forever — "
" Stop complaining and go change ! " Natalie said , handing me the first outfit .

Five outfits later , I finally picked one .

" dDDDaAaaAAAaMMMnNNNnNn !! " Natalie yelled

" You made it ! " Chase grinned and walked towards us . " We'd never miss a party . " Natalie said , as if he was stupid .

" Can I get you guys some drinks ? There's no alcohol , but I have Capri suns and stuff . " He smiled , somewhat embarrassed .

" I'm good . " Natalie said .

" Do you have strawberry kiwi ?! " I gasped , getting excited because Capri suns are the shit .

" Of course ! I'll be right back . " He said , walking away .

Natalie and I sat on the couch .

" You two are bonding over Capri suns . That's adorable . " Natalie winked . " Shut up , its a friggin Capri sun . " I laughed .

" Here ya go . " Chase handed me a Capri sun and sat next to me .

" Thank you . " I smiled and basically chugged it .

" Well , I'm gonna go find the girls . You two have fun . " Natalie winked at me .

" Hey , can I show you something ? " He asked .

" That depends . What is it ? "

" Come on , I'll show you . " He said , standing up and holding out his hand . I grabbed his hand and we made our way through the crowd .

" Where are we going ? " I yelled over the music . " Do you trust me ? " He yelled back .

I slowly nodded . Still holding onto my hand , we went out the back door and walked to the side of the house .

Chase started to climb up a ladder . " Come on . " He smiled , as he continued to climb up .

I followed him up the ladder . We ended up sitting on the top of the roof , watching the sunset . " This is so pretty . " I said , softly .

" Not as pretty as you . " He winked .
I laughed and rolled my eyes . " How many girls have been up here ? " I said , looking around .

" Two . You and my mom . " He chuckled .

" No way . " I shook my head and laughed . " It's true . " He said , looking into my eyes .

His eyes flickered down to my lips and he slowly leaned in . Our lips connected . And that was my first kiss . He pulled away and we both smiled .

We fell asleep that night on the roof and woke up the next morning to the sun rise . I slowly opened my eyes and felt an arm wrapped around my waist . It was Chase's .

" Good morning. " He said , groggily. He took his arm off of my waist and sat up .

" What time is it ? " I groaned and sat up .

" 6:50am . " Chase yawned .

" WHAT ?! " I quickly stood up . " My parents are going to murder me . " I gathered my things and climbed down the ladder .

" Do you need a ride ? I'm sure my brother can take you home . " Chase asked , following me to the front yard .

" I'll be fine , I live a few houses down . Thanks though . "

" Can I walk you home ? " He said , slipping his hands into his pockets . I smiled and nodded .

Chase grabbed my hand and we walked to my house . I snuck around to the back . " Thanks for walking me home . " I said , letting go of his hand .

" Anytime . " He smiled . " I had fun last night . "

" Me too . " I smiled

" I'll see you on Monday , Myers . " He winked at me and walked to the front yard .

I quietly opened the back door and snuck inside . " Good morning , sweetie . " My mom smiled , taking a sip of her coffee .

" H-Hi mom . "

" How was Natalie's house ? " She asked .

" Natalie's house ? " I tilted my head .

" Yeah , Natalie called us and told us you were sleeping over . " She sent down her coffee on the table .

I . Love . Natalie .

" Right . It was great . " I smiled , remembering watching the sunset with Chase and then falling asleep .

I love high school .

MONDAY

I walked to school with my earbuds in and listened to music . Suddenly , Natalie came running at me and tackled me .

" YOU . ME . TALKING . NOW ! " She screamed angrily .

" What the fu— ? " I pushed her off of me .

She grabbed my hand and dragged me by a tree . " You hooked up with Chase ?! And you didn't tell me ?! " She whisper shouted .

" Woah woah woah , I didn't hook up with Chase . " I raised an eyebrow .

" Then that bastard is telling the whole school you slept with him . " Natalie said , angrily .

Wait , what ?
