Waiting For You

Chapter 1

"I've had enough and I'm not coming back I'm over it" I sung in the comfort of my room while strumming my guitar.

"Keegan!" I heard my mom yell from down stairs. I put down my guitar and pencil and went down stairs. "yea mom?" I said while I entered the kitchen. She motioned for me to sit down at the breakfast bar while my dad was right next to her drinking his coffee.

"your dad and I have decided that we need a break from work and since your out of school for the summer we thought it was as good of a time as any to go to the summer house in California." Good I can finally get a break from Casey.

Casey was my ex boyfriend, basically to make a long story short he cheated on me with this girl he met on his trip to visit colleges because I wouldn't have sex with him. I broke up with him because of it and now he keeps calling me trying to get me back.

Hey this is Keegan I'm not here right now (obviously) ha ha but leave a message and if your special enough I'll get back to you! beep: Keeg it's me Case come on baby you know she didn't mean anything to me. I need you, please call me babe. I need to hear from you… alright fine. Just call me back alright.

"that's great! When do we leave?!" I asked almost too eagerly. My parents knew Casey and I broke up they just don't know the real reason. I just told them we grew apart. Ha yea right.

"Tomorrow morning." Great, that means I can still go to the party tonight. " that means you should be home by 12 tonight from the party. You should probably get your packing done before you go to the party."

"Okay, thanks guys." I said and went over to give them both hugs. I would pretty much need to pack most, if not all of my room. It was the end of may (we get out a lot earlier than anyone else) and there was this party for the end of the year. Its at Ben Brennan's house because his is the biggest and he's getting a band and stuff. I'm excited.

It was 3 now, the party was at 9 I had plenty of time to pack, relax, and get ready. I decided to call my best friend Savannah first.

Savannah and I had known each other since 2ndgrade. We were in the nutcracker together and were friends ever since. I've kinda always had a thing for her older brother Cooper for as long as I can remember. We started hanging out a bit during his senior year last year but it never went anywhere, and so I started dating Casey. I heard he got home from college last night and was coming to the party which ment I had to look good.

Savannah had known I had a crush on her brother and always joked about it with me, but like a good friend she never told him.

"Hello" someone answered, definitely not Savannah. Omg it was Cooper.

"…Um h-h-hey coop is Savannah there?" I asked stuttering at the fact that it was him on the line.

"Keegan, is that you?...how've you been? You going to the party tonight?" he asked me. I couldn't believe this.

I was going to try and make it simple and not sound like a fool. "…yea its me, hey! I've been good, yup I'm going to the party, that's kind of what I wanted to talk to your sister about." I said

"haha, me too, maybe I'll see ya there." He said, my heart was in my stomach. "alright, Savannah!" I heard him yell away from the phone to avoid hurting my ears.

"I got it!" I heard Annah yell from another room, and a click on the line.

"hey" she said when she got on the phone. "so what'd you and cooper talk about?" she asked laughing.

"ugh nothing he asked how I was and if I was going to the party. Which is what im calling about."

"and another thing, Ben wanted us to ask you if you would do a song tonight at the party."

"well I guess I'll do it. Since it'll be my last night in town and all…" I said waiting for their response.

"what are you talking about?!" Savannah asked.

"… my parents just told me that we're going to the California house for a break this summer. I leave tomorrow morning, so I have to pack before I go to the party tonight. That's why I asked about it. It'll be the last time I see you guy before school starts probably…"

"that is so not fair! It's the summer of our senior year!"

"I know but we'll talk. I need this you know, Casey just keeps calling and calling. Plus he's going to the party tonight. There's no loosing that loser."

"what are you gunna do?" she asked me curious, since I couldn't really escape him tonight. Well I wasn't going to let him ruin it.

"I don't really know but listen I'll see you at the party. I gotta pack and stuff. Love you."

"Okay, love you too! Byes!" and we hung up.

I started to pack my stuff for the summer. It took me until 7 to pack and recheck everything I could possibly need for the summer. My sister Rylee was coming too, she got home from college at 5. She just finished her freshman year at Cornell. We'd hang out every now and then but I'm sure she'd be doing her own thing most of the time. we're actually really close though. We look a lot alike. I'm glad she was coming. She was also coming to the party tonight. I guess it was kind of like a coming home party for the college kids too.

I got in the shower, and rapped my hair in another towel on the way out to my room. I had no idea what I was going to wear to the party.

"hey ry!" I yelled out my door. Rylee peeked her head out of her door.

"yea"

"can you come help me pick out an outfit for the party tonight" she closed her door and walked into my room. We went over and opened my huge closet. I had packed a lot of my clothes but I had to many to pack them all. She pushed aside things as she started talking to me.

"so Coop's coming to the party tonight too huh."

"yea," I said leaving it at that.

"so that means you have to look extra cute… ha I cant believe you still like him." She understood that I liked him but just didn't see the attraction because she and cooper had been friends for as long as Savannah and I had. Cooper went to Syracuse which was in the same state as Cornell. They were truly best friends, if you saw them together you'd think they were going out though. I still think they might end up together if I don't ever get him.

"here" she said plopping an outfit on my bed.It was a white tube top, dark skinny jeans, and yellow wedges. I curled my hair at the bottoms, and put on a little makeup. We finished getting ready said bye to our parents and left for the party.
