Chapter 1:

'Right here.' Kingman said pointing to my right. I directed the rent-a-car in that direction and stopped at a closed gate. I rolled down the window and found a speaker and key pad.

'Arr Matey's, who goes there?'

I looked over at Kingman who was smiling. 'Are you serious?'

'It's Kingman and my photographer Zella.' He said leaning over me.

'Arr, and how is the fair lass in the sheets?' The pirate asked and I heard laughter in the background.

'Open the fucking gate, Captain Clueless.' I said.

The gate opened not a moment later and I was greeted with a rainbow line that followed up the pavement. Following it, we finally came upon a house that deeply resembled a castle.

'Welcome to Castle Bam.' Kingman said smiling at me and opening his door.

'Lucky us.' I said placing the car in park and following Kingman up to two large doors, each with a Heartagram. Kingman knocked and the door on the left swung open to reveal the pirate we had spoken to earlier.

'Ahoy Matey's!' He said.

'Hey Dico!' Kingman said walking into the house. I followed his lead.

It would take only two words to describe the inside the interior: gothic purple.

I was pleased to see the Heartagram trend carried on within the house. There was a large silver one on the wall and a HIM poster above the fireplace.

'Guys, this is Zella. Zella, these are the guys.' Kingman said introducing us. 'Where's Bam?' He asked looking around.

'Upstairs.' Dico said dropping the pirate accent. We all took a seat on the couch and talked casually, until someone exited one of the room's upstairs.

'Who's here?' A voice called although it was muffled. I turned to find what I assumed was Bam. He had a towel wrapped loosely around his waist and it was hanging so low you could almost see the full Heartagram tattoo that was right above his penis. He was brushing his teeth vigorusly, which explained why his qustion had been muffled.

'Kingman.' The one named Novak informed him.

'I'll be right down.' He said sucking toothpaste back into his mouth.

'Take your time.' Kingman said waving him off. Bam turned and entered the room he had come from. We waited a full fifteen minutes before we heard his door open again.

Instead of hearing his footsteps coming down the stairs, I felt something land on the couch next to me. I turned to my right and came face to face with him. It took me a second to realize he had just jumped off the balcony and all the guys were laughing. He smiled broadly and held out his hand.

'I'm Bam.'

'Zella.' I said shaking it.

'Are you shooting me?' He asked with a cocky smile and staring at my chest.

'Eyes.' I said directing him back up and crossing my arms in front of me. 'Unfortunatly.'

'Mouthy...I like that.' He smiled.

'Kingman, call the dog off me.' I said making the others laugh. Bam seemed to have finally got the hint. He got up and grabbed his board.

'Let's go.' He said walking down a flight of stairs. The others followed Bam into the woods while Novak helped me grab my camera out of the car.

'He's not always like that.' Novak said as I shut the trunk.

'Yeah well, I'm not interested in him anyway.' I said throwing my bag over my shoulder and heading in the direction the others had gone in.

Bam was already skating away when we got there. I had to admit, he was really good.

'Novak!' He said while I was getting my camera ready. 'Go up in the casino and put some HIM on.'

Novak did as he was told and a second later, And Love Said No filled my ears.

'Okay.' I said picking up the camera. 'Ready?'

'Yeah.' He said.

Bam began to skate and I snapped away. I was really getting some good shots. The longer we went, the sweatier Bam got, and soon he was taking his shirt off. I noticed then, that he was completely obssessed with HIM. Considering he had tons of Heartagrams tattooed all over his body.

'Would you be pissed if I jumped over you?' He asked.

'What do you mean?' I asked.

'Can I ollie you?' He asked.

I thought about it. 'It might look cool.' I shrugged.

'Lay down.' He said pointing to a spot on the ramp. I laid back and posed my camera.

'Ready?' He asked.

'Yup.' I said. I heard his board approaching and soon saw him above my head. I snapped the picture and he landed on the other side.

'Did you get it?' He asked coming back towards me and looking down at me.

'Yeah.'

He held his hand out to help me up. I took it and he pulled me up.

'Thanks.' I mumbled. 'I think we have enough for today.'

'Good. I'm gonna get a shower.' Bam said heading towards the house with everyone following. 'And then we'll head to the bar.'

Novak showed me to my room and I got ready for a trip with the guys to the bar. I wasn't really looking forward to it, but I decided it was better than sititng in Bam's house.

I chose to wear a gray v-neck, dark wash skinnies, a purple muffler, and black flats. I straightened my hair, put my makeup on and then grabbed my oversized patent leather red bag and made my way downstairs.

Once everyone was ready, we piled into Bam's Hummer and drove to Bam's bar the Note. Walking through the doors I realized this was unlike any bar I had been to before. It had a club feel to it and a total rock look. Fireball Ministry was pounding through the speakers as I followed the guys to Bam's favorite table. We all sat down and the guys ordered their drinks. I decided against drinking for the evening.

The time at Bam's was interesting. I didn't get to sleep in. I didn't get privacy. And I got picked on for the littlest things. Novak and I had become rather good friends. We exchanged numbers before I left, both promising to keep in touch.

I still didn't like Bam. There was something about him. His cocky attitude, the way he thought I would just fall head over heels for him because he's Bam Margera, or the way he treated his friends.

To me, I didn't see the hype in Bam. He was just a total jackass to me.
