Dream of Californication

Jun 15, 2007 18:15

Kacie had left at like 2 that afternoon with her doctor-boyfriend who was takin' her to Las Vegas for the weekend, leavin' her Santa Monica beach house all to me. She tried real heard to pretend like she was givin' me the speech, the one about not having any parties while she was gone, no drinking, and definitely no boys. But I could tell, Kacie didn't care.

By 3, Lexi was over and we were busy setting up for the little shindig we were gonna throw that night. Nothin' too big. I invited a few people, she invited a few people, I think her brother Tyler invited a few people. That sort of thing. At least I hope that's all it was. I mean, I invited that guy Ryan that Kacie introduced me to. Lexi invited Lucy and Molly. Tyler invited Jude. Knowin' my luck, someone else'd get wind of it and pass out flyers.

We didn't even have to buy the alcohol. Kacie kept her bar stocked for when she entertained casting directors and producers and other no-name bigshots she was so sure were gonna make her a big star. All Lexi and I really had to do was catch a tan and then fix the place up a bit. String some lights up around the pool and the glass partition that divided the property from the beach. We set out cups and plates and trays of crap we'd ordered from some party place. There was a keg in the kitchen that I'd found in the garage, a huge tub of ice becide it. Some sodas for the non-drinkers. Or you know, for mixers. Plus, the cupcakes from Sprinkles I'd gotten for Jude's late birthday. Two tiers of them, all mixed up with red velvet, peanut butter chocolat, regular chocolate, vanilla, cinnamon sugar, mocha, and black and white.
And pretty much anything I could think of or that came to mind for Lexi.
All set, we headed up to the guest room I'd been stayin' in so we could change, considering people were due to arrive whenever.

"Do these Sevens make my ass look fat?" I asked her, as I came out from the private bathroom in jeans and a strapless bra, a sequined bebe top hanging from a hanger in one hand as I gave her a little twirl.

((Open to Lexi, and then whoever wants to.))
