You Are My Heartbreaker

Chapter 18

Conner picked me up right on time, although we were lost on our way there. The party was located on the complete opposite side of the town. And the neighborhood was like Beverly Hills.

Literally though, the hills...

Amy Kross's house—sorry mansion was like a fucking castle. It was on a steep bump of its own on top of that hill we drove up too. I bet driving down her driveway was hell.

We parked just by the curb of her house, meaning about a block away which translates to two mansions away. But once we got to her driveway we could already hear the music booming.

"Woah, are we back in high school?" Conner jokes, as he holds the gate open for me.

I giggle, "We didn't even go to high school together."

"Well," he claps his hands together, "Looks like tonight we get to go to one of those high school parties we never got to go to.. together?"

I laughed and just agreed.

We enter through the front where some blond holding a red plastic cup filled with beer was holding the door open for us. We entered to find the open space of Amy's house to be filled with people of all sorts, whether we knew them or not.

The music came from the back, which I believe is where the party really was. Inside most of the people were just sitting, drinking and having casual conversations. Whereas the back was a whole new conversation.

There was a huge pool with the size of a lake in an organic shape that stretched to 3/4 of her yard. There were at least 15 beach chairs layed around the pool. And the 1/4 of grassland at the end of her long narrow yard was filled with people who danced and sat around some patio sets layed out.

But 80% were in the pool or around there standing and socializing. This party was more crowded than a club, if you're counting the people inside the mansion.

It was crowded enough that to find Amy Kross would be a mission.

Conner took my hand as we tried to scramble our way to the end to find Demi. He gripped on tighter when we were literally squishing between a group. Until Conner was stopped by a young brunette, she was in a hot pink bikini and wearing swim shorts.

She had a very lean body and she was tanned. She had a point nose, sandy green eyes and she was the perfect California girl with the wavy beach hair too.

"Hey Conner!" she squeaks, immediately running in for a hug that Conner let go of me to hug her.

"Oh gosh," he was shocked too as he hugged her with one arm and let go, "Jamie what are you doing here?"

"Well I came with a friend and she told me there was a party here, and you know, I go where the parties are," she giggles, then noticing me, she turns over reaching out a hand, "Hi, I'm Jamie."

"Selena," I smile then shaking her hand.

"Conner you didn't tell me you had a girlfriend," she said, giving Conner a very mischievous grin and crossing her arm.

Conner chuckles, rubbing his neck, "Don't get the wrong idea, we're just friends."

"Oh well you and your lady friend have a good night, and enjoy this party in case I don't see ya'll again tonight," she pats him on the shoulder with a smirk before sauntering off toward the house.

We were about to continue to walk our way to the back until he noticed me grinning at him.

"What?" he asked innocently.
