Chapter 4:
ADDISON'S POV
Nora and I went straight to bed after a little boy talk. I was so tired after the concert that I fell asleep as soon as my head hit the pillow.
I woke up the next morning to Nora talking on her phone. She paced the room passing my bed at least five times before she realized I was up.
'Sorry.' She said as I walked into the bathroom waving her off. I did my business in there before going back to my bed.
'You got a text.' She said tossing me my phone. I looked a the time, 1:30.
'How long have you been up?' I asked as I scrolled through my phone looking for the text.
'Since like one.' She said now going through her bags looking for an outfit.
'Who sent this?' I asked outloud.
'What's it say?' She asked.
'What do you like for coffee?' I looked up at her.
'What's the number?' She asked.
'484-987-8384.' I said before hitting send.
'Yo!' I was greeted with Bam's voice. 'What do you want for coffee?'
'Where are you?' I asked.
'Starbucks.' He said.
'Caramel Marchiato. Get Nora one too. We'll pay you back.' I said.
'You don't have to pay me back silly. I'll be at your room in like ten minutes though.' He said before hanging up.
'Who was it?' Nora asked coming from the bathroom brushing her hair.
'Bam.' I said. 'He's bringing coffee.'
'Good.' She said.
I grabbed my clothes and got dressed quickly. I heard Nora let him in just as I was putting my makeup on.
'Where's Addison?' He asked.
'Right here.' I said opening the door. He handed me a coffee and I mumbled my thanks.
'So, you coming over tonight?' He asked.
'Uh-' His question had caught me off guard for some reason.
'Seth's going to be there.' He said smirking at Nora.
'We'll be there.' She said. I turned to look at her with wide eyes.
'Good. Here's the directions. Starts at 8.' Bam said making me turn again. 'See you later.'
And then he left.
'Nora!' I said turning to face her once the door was closed.
'What?' She asked shrugging. 'I want to get to know Seth better. He's so mysterious.'
So at seven, we were bustiling around our hotel room trying to get ready for this party. I chose to wear dark wash skinny jeans, a black v-neck, metalic silver gladiator sandals, and a dark purple muffler around my neck.
Nora wore dark wash skinny jeans, black converse, a white v-neck, and a long light gray cardigan unbuttoned.
'We look hawt!' She said as we stood in front of the bathroom mirror.
'Let's go.' I said. I walked into the living/bedroom area and grabbed our phones and the directions Bam had left us.
We hopped in Nora's car and made our way towards Hickory Hill Road. We drove by feilds and feilds of cows and farms.
'Who would have thought that Bam Margera would have lived this far in the country?' Nora asked.
I laughed as we pulled onto his road. 'Okay. Slow down. It's coming up on the right.'
She slowed down a bit until we saw the gated entrance to the snakerun driveway. She pulled onto it. The gate wasn't closed, so we drove right up. As soon as I saw Castle Bam, my eyes went wide. The Heartagram French doors were wide open exposing the insides to the guests. I peeked in as we drove slowly by to avoid drunks and skaters. The house was filled with the same people.
This was with out a doubt the home of Bam Margera.
He saw us pulling in and jumped off his board. He came to Nora's window, which she rolled down.
'Hi.' He said. 'Glad you two made it. Park down by the Hobbit Hole.' He pointed towards the small barn as Nora and I nodded and headed that way.
We parked the car and began making our way back up the driveway. Laughing and joking around.
Bam met us about half way and walked us towads the house. He pulled us through the crowd saying hi to random people and walking towards the Pirate Bar.
'Thirsty?' He asked opening the fridge. He handed each of us a coke. I smiled my thanks as Seth appeared out of thin air next to Nora.
'Hi.' He said smiling at Nora.
'Hey.' She said smiling back.
We stood in an awkward silence and I was trying so hard to not laugh.
'So, why don't we head out to the ramp and skate?' He asked. He grabbed my hand and pulled me towards the backdoor yelling at Dico to let everyone know to go out to the ramp in the woods.
He went towards the garage and he went in opening the door with Lance Bass. He hoped on a four wheeler that looked like a penis as Seth jumped on a normal yellow one. Nora hoped on the back of Seth's and they drove off towards the ramp.
'Get on.' He said.
I smiled and got on the giant penis. I took advantage of it, and snuggled up to him wrapping my arms around his waist.
'Ready?' He asked smiling back at me.
'Yeah.' I yelled over the motor as he drove down the driveway.
'We're going to take a little detour!' He said.
'Okay!' I said. He drove almost to the gate when he suddenly banged a right and drove through the woods. The trail we were now on couldn't be seen from the driveway and we were now following it through the dark woods. The cold breeze gave me a chil and I pressed my body closer to his. He took his left hand off of the handle bar and placed it over mine. There was a large jump ahead. I figured he was taking me over it, but he banged a left. We were now on a new trail that looked as though not many ATVs had been down it. We came to a clearing and he stopped.
There was a river ahead of us and a small half pipe next to it.
'Whats this?' I asked as he shut off the four wheeler.
'My special spot.' He said climbing off and holding out a hand for me to take. 'I found it one day when I was fighting with Missy.'
I nodded looking around.
'I come here to think. Mostly. And skate when I can't get a minute of privacy at the house I sneak out here. I like the little river.' He said.
'Me too.' I said. He walked towards the water as I followed. 'This reminds of the river behind my grandparents. I used to go there to think when I was younger and staying with them.'
'Really?' He asked. I nodded with a smile on my face. He walked over to the half pipe as I stood looking up at the stars.
'I wonder what Nora and Seth are up to.' I said outloud. Bam laughed as he pulled out a plastic bin and reached in pulling out a small stereo. He plugged it in to an outlet he must have had out here and HIM began to play.
'I bet they're already making out.' Bam said coming back towards me. 'Seth would not shut up about her last night.'
I laughed. 'Yeah well, she couldn't shut up about him either.' Close To the Flame began to play and I looked at him.
'What?' He asked.
'Are you trying to sweep me off my feet Mr. Margera?' I asked tilting my head to the side and smirking.
'Is it working?' He asked with the same smirk making me laugh harder.
'Tell you what...' I said. 'I'll give you brownie points.'
'Brownie points!?' He said. 'I think I deserve more than that.'
I laughed.
'You know when you go to school,' He said gettin closer still. 'You're going to have to come visit me.'
'Oh really.' I asked. I noticed how close he was now.
'Mmhmm.' He said. And suddenly the distance between us was closed and his lips were resting on mine.
My body became the most unresponsive it has ever been. I couldn't think let alone move and then when everything jump started back up I was pushing him back thinking things were going to fast.
'Bam,' I managed to say.
'What's wrong?' He asked. He looked utterly confused like most people kiss after meeting almost less than 24 hours ago.
'I-I just think...' I was having a real heard time getting my words straight.
'Too fast?' He asked. I nodded.
'Sorry?' I shrugged.
'Don't be sorry.' He said. 'I should be sorry. I'm an idiot. Fuck. I'm really sorry. Let's just go to the ramp. I don't know what the fuck I was thinking bringing you here.' He went over and shut the music off and started up the motorized male genitalia. I climbed on the back feeling the tension between us as we sped off towards the ramp.
BAM'S POV
I headed towards the skate ramp and Fast Eddie's thinking I probably fucked up real bad with this girl. I mean she's 18. She probably has never even had a real real relationship and here I am taking her to some fucking river and kissing her. What the fuck was my problem? She probably thinks I'm some 29 year old creeper.
I needed a cigarette, a beer, and a good hesh sesh.
We pulled up to the ramp where people were already skating and drinking. I hoped off helping her off. She smiled and mumbled thanks.
'There's Nora.' I said pointing towards Seth and Nora who were coming back from the direction of the house on the four wheeler.
'Thanks.' She said. 'I'm gonna go talk to her.'
'Okay.' I said. 'I'm going to go get a beer and skate a bit.'
'Kay.' She said smiling and then walking over to Nora and Seth. I watched her ass as she walked away praying to any God above that I didn't fuck things up bad with her.
'Where you been Life Partner?' Novak said appearing on my left and handing me a red plastic cup half full of Jack.
'With Addison.' I said.
'Did you fuck her?' Novak asked getting excited.
'Ew dude. Is that all you think about?' I asked taking my eyes off her and heading towards the ramp.
'She's hot to trot though.' Novak said.
'Dude, you may fuck in the first five minutes, but I don't.' I explianed grabbing a board and climbing up the ramp.
'Since when?' Novak asked.
'Since I met Addison.' I took a sip of my Jack and then shoved the cup back in his hand before dropping in.
The wind was rushing through my hair as I started to feel the alcohol warming my belly. I smiled and looked to find Addison, but she was gone.
NORA'S POV
'So why are we leaving?' I asked Addison as we pulled out of Bam's driveway.
'Because I'm tired.' She lied.
'Tell me the truth.' I said looking over at her.
'I just don't want to deal with the awkwardness.' She said after a minute.
'What awkwardness?' I asked.
'He took me to some river in the middle of the woods and we were talking and then he kissed me.' She explianed.
'How's that awkward?' I asked with a laugh.
'I pushed him back!' She almost screamed. 'I'm a fucking idiot.'
There was a moment of silence and I'm sure she was beating herself up for pushing Bam away.
'Where'd you and Seth disapear to?' She asked.
I smiled. 'He was showing me some of the paintings he's done. He's such a good artisit!'
'Where's his paintings?' She asked.
'Out in the Hobbit Hole. He showed me where they run Wizard Sleeve and a lot of the stuff he's done is out there.' I explained.
'Did you guys kiss?' She asked.
'No.' I said. 'I'm not a whore like you.'
'Uh!' She said and then instantly defended herself. 'He kissed me!'
'I'm kidding.' I said laughing.
'I'm so fucking tired.' She said as I pulled into the parking lot of our hotel. 'I just want to go to bed.'
We took the elevator up to our room, changed into pj's, and went to sleep.
SETH'S POV
'Where's Nora and Addison?' Bam asked stumbling toward me.
'I told you, they left.' I said rolling my eyes.
'Why?' He asked.
'Because they were tired or something.' I said thinking back to the girls leaving hurridly.
'Addison didn't say bye to me.' Bam said looking a bit confused.
'I know. They only said bye to me.' I explained.
'Well, I'm going to over there and get a proper goodbye.' He said turning away from me and heading towards the house.
'Shit.' I mumbled running towards him. 'Bam, you're way too drunk to drive.' I reasoned as we walked in the Pirate Bar and he grabbed the keys to the blue Lambo.
He looked at the keys and then up at me.
'You drive.' He said throwing them to me. I caught them and followed him out to the car excited to see Nora.
I drove to the hotel he told me they were staying at and then helped his drunk ass into the elevator and up to their room.
'Do they know we're coming?' I asked.
'No. I wanna surprise them.' He said.
I rolled my eyes.
'There's their room.' He said pointing to a door.
I knocked on it and when they didn't come right away he kicked it as hard as he could.
'Who the fuck is at the door?' I heard Addison ask Nora.
'I don't know. Go see.' Nora replied.
'Room Service!' Bam called making his voice a bit higher.
'I didn't order--' Addison said as she opened the door. 'Bam?'
'Hi!' He said. 'Can we come in.'
'I guess.' She sighed. 'Hi Seth.'
'Hi.' I said.
Bam pushed his way into the room, saying 'Come on in Sweetheart! Hi Nora!'
'Bam!' Nora said sitting up. She didn't seem too enthuzed that Bam and I had come over. Bam plopped himself down on Addison's bed and made himself comfortable.
'So...' Addison said crossing her arms. 'To what do we owe the pleasure of a visit from you guys at two thrity in the morning.'
'You...' Bam started pointing at her. 'Didn't say goodbye to me.'
'So you came all the way to my hotel room?' She asked.
'I gotta piss.' He said standing up and making his way to the bathroom.
'He's drunk.' She said turning to face me.
'Yeah.' I said.
She rolled her eyes.
'Addison!' He screamed from the bathroom.
'What!?' She yelled back.
'Come're!' He called.
She rolled her eyes and made her way to the bathroom.
'So...' I said turning to face Nora.
She was smiling. 'They're cute together.'
'Yeah. They are. He was pissed when she left without saying bye.' I chuckled.
'I'm glad you guys came by. I didn't really want to leave earlier. I just did it for her.' She explained.
'Why'd she want to leave?' I asked.
'She thought things would be awkward with Bam because he kissed her and she pushed him away.'
I nodded. 'That would be awkward.' We both laughed a bit as Bam and Addison came back.
'Okay Bam.' She said. 'You need to leave now.'
'Alright!' He sighed. 'Thanks for helping me with my zipper.'
'Yeah, yeah, yeah.' She said pushing him towards the door.
'That's when I follow the drunk.' I said making Nora laugh. 'I'll see you tomorrow. Sweet dreams.'
'Kay night.' She said smiling as I walked out in the hallway. Bam was hugging Addison while she tried to pry him off, promising she would come over tomorrow.
'Come on Bam.' I said dragging him down the hallway and into the Lambo.
