The next day went by in a blur. I still couldn't believe Malcom had invited us over to his party. Since freshman year, he had made hymself popular with his parties. At first they were like any other party just with extra stuff added in like beer and drugs. But this summer, his parties got even more exiting. He had "borrowed" his dads SRT and started doing burnouts and donuts. Also, his dad had recently moved into a mansion house with a huge pool. And since his dad was almost never home, he threw parties once or twice a month. But I felt this year, it would get more exiting because people were finally getting their first cars and like any other teenager, they wanted to have fun with their cars. I myself still didn't have a car because I havn't made up my mind on which car I should get.
I decided to go text Rose and Angel on the groupchat to decide where we were going to meet up.
----------------------------
James: Soo where we goin to meet up?
Rose: how about the ice cream shop in the middle of town
Angel: das fine by me but at what time?
Rose: How about in 40 min
James: ight then ill see you guys later
Angel: wait are we going to walk?
Rose: duh what do you think?
Rose: unless you got a car?
Angel: wow I should really get a car then
James: one with 4 seats alright so we all fit lol
Rose: true
-----------------------------
It took me 20 minutes to walk to the ice cream shop. I lived pretty far from it so I had to make sure to start walking there early. When I got there I saw that Rose and Angel were already there.
"Well I see you guys beat me here"
"Well James, maybe if you started walking here earlier maybe you would make it here at the same time as us"
"Well Rose, not everybody is a time perfectionist as you"
"I thought we were going to a party"
As Angel said this, I saw Rose shiver.
"Rose you decide to come at this time of the afternoon knowing at what time we are going to leave the party without a sweater?"
"Well maybe someone should be a good friend and let me borrow their sweater. Besides I didnt think it would get this cold."
As I took of my sweater, I said "maybe we should just not go and go back to your place"
"And pass up an opportunity like this? I dont think so." As Angel said this, I noticed Rose staring at me. When she noticed, I noticed, she quickly put on my sweater.
"Well Jason, you look way better without a sweater you know."
"No I dont" I responded. "We should start heading over to Malcom's place, you know"
As I glanced at her I noticed a faint hint of a blush in her face.

As we got near Malcom's house I said "Remember dont drink anything anyone offers you. This goes mostly your way Rose. You know how Malcom is towards you."
"Yeah, yeah, yeah you dont have to worry about me" But as she said this, I could tell she was glad I had said this.
"Well im going to leave you guys, I dont want to look like a third wheel and I also have a few friends who came as well." As he started walking away I said "Can you keep your eyes open, im curious about those camaros." I was actually very interested in them and I was wondering how much power and how fast it could go.
"Sure thing" he said as he walked away to meet his friends.
As we entered the party, I could feel everyone watching us. Mostly Rose, she was the one who caught everyones attention. Then as we got outside, to the backyard we saw Malcom heading our way. "Well Rose looks like you made it" he said with a grin. "Now it looks like the fun will really start." As he said this, he turned around and headed to the front of the house. Everyone started following him and I noticed him take out a pair of car keys. "Set up the cones and get the street cleared up" he said out loud. "I want the street ready for some fun!" Everyone cheered and I noticed his 2 friends, Jack and Wyatt get into their cars. "Well" I murmured to Rose, "I know whats coming next." "No wonder their parties are so fun I mean who wouldnt want to miss out on this type of party" she said. As they started revving their engines I said "Well maybe I should get a car and start doing this if you're so attractted to this" I said with a smirk. "As long as I get to tag along im fine with it" she said with a smile on her face.
