Chapter 0296
The moment Melissa and | made our way outside, music and chaos consumed me. Everybody was
dancing, laughing, having a good time, and for sreason, the turn out this year was larger than
it ever had been.
My eyes quickly found my brother Pollocks, and as he stared at me, his gaze narrowed and he
frowned. He obviously wasn't pleased with my outfit, but considering the attitude he had towards
had done it, but yet he and even my parents thought it was.
Go figure. I'm the rebellious teenager, the one who doesn't ever listen and beats to her own tunes,
so of course, I'm the one who did it. Fucking stereotyping assholes, if you ask me.
"So what do you wanna do first? Shall we get a drink?"
Taking a moment to think about Melissa's offer, a grin slid across my face. "Sure. But if we're going
to get a drink, we're going to get a real drink."
Her eyes widened in surprise as she giggled and looked around to see if anybody had heard. "Aren't your parents

Shrugging my shoulders, | tipped my head to the side and gestured for her to follow me. "Who cares if they
notice I'm eighteen now? Well, at least | will be in two hours, so | can make my own choices. Plus, a friend owed
Melissa was still seventeen and would be for another month, but that was okay. Her birthday being at the start of
summer just meant when she did turn eighteen and we had our apartment on the West Coast, we would be able
to have a lot more fun than we currently were having.
As we walked around the bonfire,
heading for my secret spot that sat off to the side, | stepped around the bushes, Revealing a dark navy blue
cooler with a white top, | quickly popped open. Inside of it was a bag of ice, a couple cans of soda, and a
very large bottle of whiskey.
It didn't takebut a second to make Melissa and | a drink, and as we chug down our first glass, we quickly
prepared for a second. "Shall we go find trouble?" | asked her with a mischievous smile, she nodded.
"Shit, trouble is your middle name."
Wandering around, the last person | expected to see at my party was Lucas Vega, but there he stood on the
other side of the bonfire, watching me. The flickering light of the fire cast shadows across his face as the moon
rose high in the sky.
| didn't think he was going to come,
and | hadn't seen him since that day after school. But it was obvious Melissa had seen | had noticed him, and as
she nudged me, | glanced over towards her. She smiled and gestured with her head forto go speak to him.
"What are you waiting for?"
"Dude, absolutely not. Lucas Vega is completely off limits. Not to mention Lux would fucking kill us both if
anything happened. He isn't even my type."
"Not your type?" she laughed hysterically. "Oh, con. | have known you for years. He is SOO00
your type, Cassie."

"Cassie, you deserve to be happy. You can't keep putting off everything because of what Lux may
say. He isn't going to have anything to do. with your life once we leave, so don't miss out on
opportunities like this. Lucas Vega may be a bad boy, but he's completely fucking hot."
Something about the way she spoke about Lucas made my heart ache. She was right. I did need to
make a move, but the move I currently wanted to make was not on him, it was on her.
