And so we went.

To the man cave.

Which meant the Hemmings Household.

Great.

I tried to reason with Michael that it was great that they wanted me to hang out but I really couldn't because my mom would never let me.

Before I knew what was happening he grabbed my phone and called my mom from my contacts. "Hello, is this Abbi's mother?" He said and grinne wickedly at me. "Yes, this is her new friend from school, Michael, and myself and a few others have taken a liking to Abbi and would like to invite her to enjoy some time at our friends house.... Yes, she's fine, I thought it might be more polite to ask you myself.... She can come?... Great!... We'll have her home by 7." He hung up and I bitterly took my phone back.

"Michael-"

"You weren't going to do it yourself, so, you're welcome." I glared at him and his stupid smug smile.

"But I'm not a social person." I whined and he laughed.

"Nonsense. We make everyone social."

Great.

...

Ashton:

It was a foolproof plan. Invite Abbi over, judge who she goes for the most, and then the other guys will back off.

Nothing could go wrong.

Luke, Calum and I were in the den. They were playing guitar hero while I claimed we should be girl proofing the house. Calum shrugged, and all Luke said was, "it's already girl-proof."

I sighed and fixed my bandana. "Just because you have a little sister doesn't mean your house is girl-proof."

Luke's little sister Andy was a bomb. She had the punk vibe going for her, without facial features vaguely resembling Luke's but with dark, ebony hair that had waves of pink and purple at the end. Not to mention her body. That was... Wow.

But she was off-limits. To any of us. To date a bro's sister would be in violation of our unspoken laws. It wasn't really worth it.

"Why not?" Luke asked, wrinkling his brow in confusion.

"Andy is used to your penguin boxers on the floor. Abbi is not." I explained calmly to him and his eyes widened.

"Shiiiit." He mumbled and dropped the controller, scrambling to find any undergarments strew on the floor. Calum watched him amusedly and then proceeded to entertain himself by killing Luke's character multiple times and taking his death money. He had been unusually quiet lately and I had a feeling it had something to do with our small contest.

Andy came down the stairs and looked at us evenly. "Someone's here. With Michael." She said, sounding like passing the information along was just the most boring thing she'd ever had to do.

"I'll lead them down." I volunteered and jogged up the stairs. As I did though, Andy's small hand clamped onto my wrist.

"Does he... Are they...?" She asked, a little pang evident in the back. I cautiously shook my head.

"I hope not." I said and frowned, to which she sighed with a little relief. She let go of my hand and I finished my ascent. Abbi was standing in the doorway with Michael, who was just a bit too close to Abbi to actually be polite. She didn't seem care though, other than a slightly annoyed air around her.

Though that could be attributed to how we kidnapped her.

I felt a pang of petty jealousy as I saw her looking so relaxed next to Michael. She looked as if she had known him for ages.

Damn it, I should've volunteered to drive her. Oh well. "Hey, great to see you could join us." I said and grinned at her nonchalantly.

She laughed and rolled her eyes. "Oh yeah, not like I had a choice." She said and gave me a, 'can you believe it?' Grin. I laughed as well and gestured for her to follow me.

"Well as long as your here, might as well chill." I chuckled and led her down into the basement, Michael following after her. Luke and Calum were still on the floor, playing their game, but now Andy was sitting quite close to Calum, messing with the hole of his jeans on his lower thigh.

They both broke their gazes from the game and turned to look at us. Luke grinned and Calum took on a very neutral expression.

"Abbi!" Luke said cheerily and Michael gave an annoyed grunt.

"Well gee, I feel loved." He said and sighs dramatically. I saw his eyes linger on Andy and the space between her and Calum hotly for a moment longer before returning back to normal and relaxing back on the couch.

"Well you are not a pretty girl." Luke pointed out and Calum laughed shortly.

"Though he'd like to be." He remarked and Michael threw a pillow at him. Andy ducked out of the way, creating more distance between her and Calum and a brief look of satisfaction crossed Michael's face.

Abbi laughed lightly and sank onto a pillow on the ground. Her eyes took in the plush basement and smiled softly. "Any particular reason for my kidnapping?"

"Michael kidnapped you?" Andy asked incredulously, eyes wide and confused. Abbi nodded and was about to say something when Michael cut her off.

"She didn't put up a fight." He smirked and she gasped, jokingly glaring at him.

"I knew you wouldn't actually take me to Mexico and rape me." She said.

Andy laughed. "Michael offered to rape you and you turned him down? I like you." Both girls beamed at each other and I chuckled from where I had perched on the arm of the couch.

They would become fast friends.
