When Summer Ends by Katy Wormald (notion reading list TXT) 📖

her, I can't drink this crap either." She said giving Declan our drinks and pulling me upsairs and into the kitchen.

In there we found a few bottles of Martini, wine and vodka. I poured myself a vodka and coke, and then another seen as Jaz had taken mine laughing. We stood in the kitchen talking for a few miniutes about Ali and how sweet she was with her boyfriend. Apparently they had been going out for three years now, I though it was so cute. I heared the clik clak of heels and looked up to see Chloe standing in the door way, with her hands on her hips and a vicious expression on her face.

She walked over to stand a bit in front of me, but already Jaz was in front of me and in her face. "What do you want?" Jaz asked her in a disgusted voice. I assume that something had blown up between them, but decided now wasn't the time to ask.

"I want your little tart of a friend to stop looking at my boyfriend." Chloe shouted pointing over Jaz's shoulder at me. I moved so that I was stood by Jaz's side.

"I wasn't even looking at your boyfriend. Why would I come to my boyfriends party and look at yours? Plus if I were then why would I say hi to when you saw me?" I asked her, trying to keep calm, but I wanted to rip out her hideos white/blonde hair. Who the hell was she to speak to me like that! I wasn't even looking at Maliki!

"Whatever, hoe. Just stay away from him." Chloe said spinning on her heel and walking away. I was right, you could see her ass in that mini dress.

Jaz told her shut up and keep walking, but I don't think Chloe heared over the music. I drank my voda and coke in one and poured us both another. We bitched a bit about Chloe, apparently she hadn't liked Jaz ever since Jaz had caught her kissing another guy and told Maliki. We decided to go back downstairs, but not to tell Ali as apparently she'd been wanting to 'hit the hoe' for ages now, and we didn't want a fight breaking out over something so trivial.

I walked over to Declan, who was playing Call of Duty waith a Chloe-covered Maliki. Jaz sat next to me on the floor by Dec and pulled a smug look at Chloe. Me and Jaz talked about school, boys and other teenage girl things while the boys finished there video game. All the way through Maliki was boasting about how he was ripping into Declan on it, and how he was the best person on the game. Me andJaz laughed, making fun of how sad boys can be. Each time I glanced over chloe would pull us looks as though we were something that she had found on the bottom of her shoe.

Declan put down the pad and punched Maliki in the arm, apparently Maliki had cheated and that was the only we he had won. I laughted and teased him- saying I was even better than him on the game.

"Here, you see if you can beat him then. Watch out though he cheats." Declan laughed passing me the controll pad and standing up so that I could sit next to Maliki on the sofa to play the video game. Declan stood behind him, with his hands on my shoulder telling me that I could beat him. Jaz burst out laughing, I followed here eye line to see a livid looking Chloe, I laughed and started playing the game.

"Yes,I won!" I screamed and was lifted up into the air by Declan. He spun me around a few times, telling me I was the best girl ever on it. Wow, my first time and I won. I tunred around and pulled a smug look at Maliki, teasing him about how he got beat by a girl.

He stood up and said I played a good game, I help my hand out to shake his, we both laughed and he gave me a quick hug. I was actualy quite shocked, I was so glad that i was getting along with all of his friends. That was until Chloe piped up again...

"Get your filthy hands off of my boyfriend." She screamed jumping up from her seat. She looked like she was going to explode she was that red in her face. Everone had noticed her outburst and someone had turned the music down. I stood there angry and embaressed that she was causing a scene out of nothing.

"Grow up Chole, I only hugged her." Maliki said shaking his head at her. Declan put his arm around me protectively and Jaz and Ali were at my side in a instant. I could tell everyone was watching from how silent they were.

"You need to get a life you physco bitch." Ali said stepping up to her, Ali was quite small beside anyone, and looked tiny stood next to a 5'7 Chole. I cringed remembering what Jaz had said about them two, hoping that neither of them would start a fight.

"Why, what you and the little lesbian going to do Ali?" Chloe said spitefully pointing at Jaz. I gasped, in no world should a persons gender preferance be used against them. I didn't hvae time to look to see how Jaz had taken it though as Ali raised her hand, high behind her head and slapped Chloe across the face, instantly leaving a red hand print.

Chloe looked taken back from the slip, which I guess anyone would be, instead of hitting her back to which I expected Chloe to do, she turned to a shocked looking Maliki and demanded that they were leaving.

"I'm not going any where, Jaz is our friend, you can't talk about her like that. You know where the door is and you got money for your taxi, so you can go yourself." He told her. Chloe's eyes filled up with tears, I tried hard not to feel sorry for her, but at the end of the day she was upset as anyone would be after being told that by your boyfriend. She grabbed her bag and ran out of the house. Nobody spoke for a while untill Declan.

"Put the music back on guys, its still a party!" He shouted and everyone laughed, resumine the party atmosphere. Me, Ali and Jaz spoke for ages about what happened and all the tings Chloe had done. Maliki even approched me and appologised for Chloe, saying that was the last of her, which I think everyone was glad about.

For the rest of the night Declan and I sat talking, I think he wanted to make sure I was okay after what had happened but I was fine about it all, I though that it was Jaz who needed comforting. Although she seemed to just laugh it off. Me and Dec were cuddling on the sofa while talking and drinking with everyone when I decided to ask him if it was okay if I could sleep.

"I though you already was doing- its like 3:30AM, I kinda assumed it hours ago." He laughed kissing the top of my head. I thanked him for letting me stay, but asked if I could borrow a tee shirt of his to sleep in as I didn't think to bring and pajamas unlike Ali and Jaz. He said he's find me one out when I wanted to go to bed.

After another few hours, countless drinks and a horrible game of Naughts & Crosses Shots I told Declan I was ready for bed. Ali and Jaz had gone up during the game, after Jaz had one too many drinks. There was now only me and Declan up, after everyone falling asleep around the room, not using the stack of sleeping bags that were in the corner. Declan helped a very drunk me to my feet and practically carried me into his room so that he could sort me a tee shirt out. He was surprising quite a gentleman, he got me the shirt and turned around when I undressed without any warning. I thought it strange that he wasn't drunk at all, but then again he didn't have a drink all night. I suppose so that he could make sure everything was under control.

"Come on, I'll take you to guest room, although Ali and Jaz are probably snoring away in there." He said laughing and trying to stand me up from his bed where I decided to lay.

"Can't I stay in here...with you?" I said in the most seductive voice I could do, although I think it just came out in a slurr. I leaned up to kiss him and attempt to pull his Tee shirt off, but he just gave me a peck on the lips and sat me on the bed with my hands on my knees.

"You can stay in here with me yeah, but I'm sleeping on the floor and your in the bed. Your too drunk to be making decisions like this hun, get some sleep and I'll see you in morning, okay?" He said in a caring voice, moving the hair from my face and kissing the top of my head.

He told me he was going to get a sleeping bag and left the room. I didn't put up a fight for us to sleep together, because I knew deep down that I didn't want my first time to be like that. I laid in Declans bed and pulled the covers over my head. I heard him come in and tell me goodnight, but I was in that sleepy mood where I just didn't want to answer, instead I gave him a kiss when he came to pull my covers up and laid by head back down to sleep. I closed my eyes and smiled. I think that was the night I fell in love with Declan.

Chapter Ten


I woke up the next morning with the worst headache of my life. Instead of opening my eyes and getting out of bed, I pulled the covers up above my head and curled into a tight ball. I moaned loudly as the light from the window was still hurting my eyes. I heard someone laughing near the bed, but I didn’t look up to see who it was. I buried my head into Declans cover and tried to drift back to sleep, although I knew it was no use from the terrible headache I had.


“I put some tablets and a drink of water on the table next to you, if you need them.” Declan said in a sweet voice, sitting next to me on his bed and rubbing my back through the cover. I smiled
