The Lost Boys
Chapter 3
Paul grabbed my hand and led me over to the group of boys who were howling at us before.
"Babe this is the Lost Boys, Lost Boys this is babe." Paul grinned, motioning to me.
"My names Caroline, not babe." I looked at Paul, only to have him grin down at me.
Why must he be so damn tall?
"Hi, Caroline." a shorter boy grinned at me, he had curly hair and a pair of the prettiest blue eyes. His jacket was extremely unique, it had so many patches on it.
"What brings you to Santa Carla?" another boy asks, this one has blonde hair styled up in a mullet and he was wearing a long black jacket and a blat shirt, along with a pair of pants and old boots.
"I'm visiting my cousins and aunt this summer." I smiled, and David grinned.
"The whole summer?" he asked with a grin and I nodded.
"I have a feeling that we're going to get really close this summer." Marko grinned, but I couldn't help but think that his words had another meaning to it.
"We usually have another boy with us but he decided to go and get a bite to eat." David smirked and Paul gave David a certain look which he gladly returned back.
"Well he can't help that he was hungry now can he?" I smiled trying to lighten the mood and Marko grinned.
"A boys got to eat when a boys got to eat." Marko's grin widened as he said those words.
"I told Caroline that she could go on a ride with us." Paul smirked. The two boys looked at each other and grinned.
"You sure she can handle it?" David asked, with a slight teasing tone.
I scoffed. "I can handle anything you guys throw at me."
"Shall we put it to the test boys?" David asked grinning and Paul and Marko, who just smirked back in response.
Paul grabbed me and led me down a staircase, walking off and away from the board walk. He led me to a secret location where they had stored their motorcycles.
My heart skipped a little beat as I watched him slowly put a leg over the motorcycle, revving it to life. He looked so damn good on that motorcycle, but at the same time it scared me a little because I just met this guy and he could be a murder.
That and the fact that I've never actually rode on a motorcycle before.
"Don't tell me the princess is having second thoughts." Marko grinned, getting on his bike and starting it up.
"No!" I looked at him, before slowly making my way over to Paul, getting on his bike. My arms had wrapped around his waist on a reflex.
"You're going to want to hold on tight to me babe." Paul smirked, I blushed as I tightened my grip, I could feel his abs through his shirt, the shirt was pretty much nonexistent, I could feel his warm skin through the fish net shirt.
"Enjoy feeling me up back there babe?" I could tell Paul was smirking, I hid my face into his back in embarrassment. I could feel the vibration of his laugh as I rested my head up against his back.
"Let's get this show on the road!" Marko yelled, causing David and Paul to howl back in response.
They began to drive on the beach, leaving their special spot. The smell of the sea and the feeling of the cool breeze running through my hair was awesome, it felt amazing.
The boys began to drive faster, the engine of the motorcycle was blasting through the air along with the boy's laughter. I my gripped tightened a little bit as they began to ride through a forest type area.
The ground was really rocky and uneven, causing my body to bounce every now and then.
My fear was probably really noticeable by now, considering the fact that nails may or not be slightly scratching Paul's stomach at the moment. I don't think that he was bothered about it because I could only hear him laughing really loud.
"Relax babe! I'm not going to let anything hurt you." Paul took a handoff of the motorcycles handle for a second and touched my hand reassuringly, before placing it back on the bike. I let out a shaky breath before looking ahead at the unknown path that was awaiting me in the distance. It looked like an old dirt road.
I slowly got used to the speed that the boys were going and eventually found myself laughing along with them and enjoying the ride. "This is amazing!" I shouted, causing all of the boys to laugh.
"If you stay with us princess, you'll be doing crazy shit every day." Marko howled, causing me to giggle.
The boys started to slow down, pulled up and brought me to the entrance of a cave.
They all parked and got of their bikes, Paul reached a hand out to me and helped me off of the bike.
"What this place? And why are we here?" I asked slightly nervous at the fact that all of them were just staring at me, smirking.
Oh god.
They are probably going to kill me now! Gosh I'm so stupid! Why would I go with a bunch of strangers that I had just met?! Whatever happened to all those years of 'stranger danger' that my mom had taught me? I'm too young to die!
"Relax babe, this is where we live." Paul said, wrapping an arm over my shoulders, bringing me closer to him.
"If any of you attempt to kill me! I'll… I'll." I stuttered.
"You'll what?" David smirked at me.
"beat you with a stick." I looked at all them for a few seconds before they broke down laughing.
"A stick? Did she really just say that she was going to be us with a stick?" Marko laughed his ass off.
Why, yes! Yes I did you curly headed twat.
Paul and David started to laugh even harder for some reason.
Oh shit… did I just say that aloud?
"Yes, yes you did." Marko said, laughing.
"Insult me all you want! But don't bring the curls into this!" Marko cried out dramatically, making me laugh.
"Let's go inside! We got someone we you want to meet." The boys grinned. Finally recovering from their laugh attack.
Something tells me I'm not going to get any sleep tonight.
And I'm okay with that.
I had to be carful when entering the cave, because I had to walk down these really sketchy stairs and one wrong move could mean either an embarrassing fall in front of the boys or a fatal mistake.
Entering the cave I noticed they had so many candles lighting the dark place up, it kind of looked like a place where a satanic ritual would be. There was a fountain in the middle of the cave entrance and a broken down couch as well. Paul led me to the couch and sat down, bringing me down on his lap.
"Marko go get us some food." David smirked and Marko nodded.
"any requests?" Marko looked at me with a wink and I just smiled. "Surprise me."
Marko left the cave and David turned his attention to me. "What do you think of the place?"
I looked around collecting my final thoughts before looking back at David. "It's rad!" I smiled.
"this place used to be the hottest resort back in 1906, it's a shame that it was built on a fault so when the big one hit it all just sunk down." He grinned at me. "Now its ours."
"Dwayne come out here and meet our guest." Paul hollered.
A tan, handsome boy came out of one of the tunnels in the cave without a shirt making my cheeks flare up. Instantly his eyes had locked on me and he began to grin.
"Hello" his voice was deep, raspy, and sent shivers down my spine.
He took the spot right beside Paul on the small broken little couch and it allowed me to get a better look at his features. He really was truly handsome. Actually all the boys got lucky with having good traits, but Dwayne and Paul stood out to me the most.
The Smell of Chinese food and the sound of Marko yelling had snapped me out of my thoughts.
"Come and get it boys." Marko said, walking into the cave and throwing the Chinese boxes around to all the boys and then to me.
I looked down at the box and David looked at me. "Its rice, why don't you eat some? After all how can a billion Chinese people be wrong?" He grinned.
I shrugged my shoulders and opened the box and began to chow down, adding some orange chicken that I stole from Paul and mixing it into my rice.
"How do those maggots taste Caroline?" David asked, leaning forward.
"What?" I asked confused.
"Maggots Caroline. You're eating maggots." David grinned, making me look down and look at my food only to see my rice and orange chicken.
"oh ha ha very funny." I rolled my eyes, looking at him. All the boys began to look at me now with a puzzled expression, even David looked a little shocked, but quickly recovered returning back to his dull face expression.
The boys all looked in deep thought almost as if they were all having a silent conversation with each other. "Maybe I should go." I began to get up from Paul's lap only to be pulled right back into it.
"Leaving so soon? The party just started." David looked at Marko who nodded in response. Marko got up from his spot on the fountain and disappeared into one of the halls. Only to return with a bottle decorated in jem's a moment later.
Marko passed the bottle over to David and returned to his seat on the fountain.
"do you think we should let our little guest have a taste?" David asked the boys who cheered in return.
"I don't think this is a good idea guys, I'm still a minor." I looked at David nervously.
"Relax girl! No one here is gonna snitch on you." I could feel Paul's breath on the back of my neck and it sent tiny shivers down my spine. Dwayne squeezed my hand reassuringly.
"One swing couldn't hurt." I smiled, taking the wine from David.
"Drink! Drink! Drink!" they boys chanted all together.
I swung my head back and chugged the wine a little. I could hear the boys cheering, but their voices started to fade away as a weird sensation filled my body. My head began to feel a little dizzy and my body felt so light. So free.
Marko picked me up and began to swing my body around in circles, causing me to giggle.
We drank some more and danced around all together.
Black stars began to cloud my vision and my body started to slow down and I ended up slumping over while the boys laughed.
I could remember the smell of Paul's jacket and the feeling of the wind following through my hair.
And then I passed out.
No Regrets.
