A One Night Stand, Lingered To A Fling

Drop Dead... everywhere. Signs and banners covered the walls. I felt sick, what the hell. I looked up at Josh and he smiled. "You didn't tell me this was for Drop Dead" I said as calmly as I could.

"I wasn't sure if you'd know what that was" He shrugged.

"My last name is Kean, I come from Sheffield... doesn't that add up a little" I hissed. He frowned a little then tilted his head to the side.

"You're Matts sister... how did I not... fuck" He was very shocked.

"Yep, I fucking am" I said looking away. Bad fucking move Casey. I looked across the room and locked eyes with the last person I wanted to see right now. Oli.

"Fuck sake" Josh mumbled.

Oli began walking over to us. "Alright there" He smiled at us.

"Hey man, how you doing?" Josh greeted Oli with a hug.

"I'm good. How do you two know each other then? If I knew you were in London I'd of invited you" Oli tried to sound sincere.

"The new face of Down But Not Out" Josh said proudly, wrapping his arm around my shoulder. Oli looked between us carefully.

"Isn't that the sweetest thing" He smirked.

"Yeah Josh asked me to be his date tonight, I had no idea this was your party" I smiled smugly.

"Cute" Oli said looking straight into my eyes. "Thank you" I grinned.

"Where's your date?" I asked. He looked around then suddenly a girl walked over to Oli and kissed his cheek. She turned to us and smile and that's when I realised who she was...

-flashback-

"Casey, can I talk to you for a minute?" I heard, it pulled me out of my daydream. I looked up to see Oli standing infront of me, a huge grin on his face.

"Yeah" I nodded. He sat down next to me on the grass infront of school.

"Well, since I don't have a date to prom I decided to ask Laura Silvers. She actually said yes, can you believe it?" He beamed.

"Really?" I asked with shock. She wasn't exactly his type... infact I'm pretty sure she said he waz a freak once but I don't know maybe she has changed?

"Yeah, I'm so excited" He jumped up and down on his knees. I giggled at his actions, it was nice to see him happy.

"Well I'm happy for you" I smiled.

-prom night-

Oli sat infront of me, head in his hands crying. I never really seen him cry before but now I feel like it was needed. I knew there was something weird about Laura said yes to going to prom with Oli. Now I know why. She humiliated him infront of everyone in our year, I'm so disgusted by her. He leaned in to kiss her and then one of her male friends poured green paint on his head. In the middle of the dancefloor. Everyone laughed at him. I sat down next to him and leaned my head on his shoulder, wrapping my arm around his shoulders. I don't even care if I get paint all over my dress. "Listen, she's worth nothing in comparison to you. I mean it, one day you're gonna amount to so much more than her or any of them guys in there. Trust me. You have me and the boys, we're here for you" I told him.

He looked up at me, paint smeared on his face, eyes swollen and nose red from crying. "Thank you" He tried to smile.

"No problem" I smiled and stood up.

"Let's go dance" I held my hand out for him. He looked scared.

"No I can't go back in there now" He said looking worried.

"Don't let them win. Show you don't give a fuck and come dance with me" I said demandingly. He hesitated for a minute then took my hand. We walked back inside and cleaned him up a little. After we done that we walked back into the ballroom. Everyone looked at us but we just walked over to the guys.

"You alright mate?" Matt N asked.

"Yeah I'm fine" Oli smiled. We began taking pictures and goofing around when I heard a voice behind me and Oli. I turned to see Laura standing, with an evil smirk on her face.

"I like your suit Oli but no one called for the Hulk" She giggled. I rolled my eyes at her and walked over to her.

"What the hell is your problem? Do you honestly think you're fucking royalty?" I almost screamed in her face. The music died down and every pair of eyes were on us.

"Do you think it's okay to trick someone like that? To try and ruin their prom, their night? You are a horrible, disgusting human being and what you do to people who deserve so much more respect, is pitiful. I hope one day karma gets you, you self centred fucking whore" I shouted. Her face was shocked.

"You can't say that to me" She shook her head, face going red.

"Yes I can and it's about time someone fucking did" I laughed.

"Ugh, why don't you and your group of emo freaks go and cut yourselves. Better yet sit in a circle and cut each other you freak" She retaliated. Everything in me went red, I lost it. My hands balled up and I laughed loudly. I turned away slightly then looked back at Oli. He had a sad look on his face, it gave me all the motivation to do what I done next. I turned back and punched Laura in the face. She fell backwards onto the dancefloor. A chorus of 'oohs' came from all around the room. I looked down at Laura, blood pouring from her nose and smiled.

"The only blood that will be spilled tonight will be yours" I spat at her. A teacher finally came into the crowd and ask me to leave.

"Casey" I turned to look at Oli. "Yeah?" I asked. "Come on" He said holding his hand out. All of us left prom and went home to get drunk.

-end of flashback-

"Hey Casey, I haven't seen you in forever" Laura said with excitement.

"Yeah, the last time I seen you, you were on the floor bleeding because I punch your face in" I smiled sweetly. Joshs' head snapped round to look at me. Oli smirked and Laura looked scared.

"You what?" Josh asked.

"Oh it's not important, we're all good now" Laura answered quickly.

"Oh very" I said sarcastically.

"I'm going to get a drink" I announced getting away from this situation. What the fuckity fuck? Why is he with her? Why and what and how? Nope he is an idiot. I walked over to the bar and ordered three shots of whisky. I downed them all and sighed.

"Casey?". I turned to see my brother standing infront of me.

"Matt" I cried out and ran to him.

"Why are you here, when?" He asked confused.

"I'm Josh Franceschis new model for his clothing line so he invited me to a party and well it turned out to be this one" I explained. He nodded along.

"That's cool. We're going to played Warped tour next week so I won't see you during our birthday" He made a sad face.

"Damn, that's sucky" I pouted.

"Yeah" He nodded. I got caught up with my brother and the rest of the guys. I also got very drunk, which is no surprise. I ended up in a booth with Josh, talking about our lives.

"So you dated Oli?" He asked.

"Yeah, pretty much" I sighed.

"What happened there?" He questioned.

"He cheated on me" I said bluntly.

"Fuck sake, that's shit. I thought Oli was a nice guy!" He shook his head.

"He is... just he made a stupid mistake and I don't know he's an idiot" I laughed.

"Casey..." He said quietly.

"Yeah?" I smiled.

"This is soon, I know but would you give me a chance to sweep you off your feet and make you feel like a princess?" He asked with fear in his eyes. I smiled widely, this was so cute.

"I guess..." I pretended to be uninterested.

"I'm kidden, I'd love for you to be my boyfriend" I smiled. He leaned in and kissed my lips. He smelled like blueberries and tasted like beer. I could feel him smiling against my lips, it made me smile. When I pulled back he couldn't stop smiling at me.

"Do you wanna... stay with me tonight?" He asked nervously. I thought of all the bad things that could come of me going to his house and I decided to do it.

"Yes" I nodded. We got our stuff together and decided to go say goodbye to everyone.

"I'll see you soon, I'll come home when you're back from Warped" I told Matt.

"Yeah, have fun" I hugged my brother tight. Josh was saying bye to his friends when I looked over to see Oli standing by himself. I decided to go over.

He looked up and said. "Hey".

"We're just taking off now... wanted to say goodbye and have fun in America" I told him.

"Oh, right" He frowned. "Thanks and um, have fun too" He said flicking hair out of his face. I wrapped my arms around him and hugged him tightly. I don't know why.

"See you around" I mumbled. As I pulled away he quickly whispered something in my ear.

"If you sleep with him, I'll make your life hell". I looked at him and tilted my head.

"I'll make it a good one" I whispered back and walked away. I looked back for a second to see his face, he looked devastated. I winked at him and then walked out, holding hands with Josh.
