It's 6:21 PM and Ashton still isn't back yet.

I've called him 3 times.

Nothing.

I'm starting to get worried,

I mean what if something went wrong?

I reach for my phone laying on the coffee table in front of me but I'm not close enough.

I sit up from my once comfortable spot on the couch.

I grab my phone.

"One more time, c'mon" I say quietly to myself.

Taylor went to take a nap a little while ago. He gave me 2 Advil and some other pills from the doctor to help with my pain and healing of my stitches.

They're supposed to be taken out in 2 and a half weeks.

My ankle still hurts pretty bad though.

The dial tone goes through 2 cycles before the third one is interrupted by an unfamiliar male voice.

*phone call*
Boy: Hello?
Lilly: Hey um is Ash there?
Boy: Yeah, who's this?
Lilly: Um I'm Lilly, Ashton's sis- best friend.
Boy: Hold on...yeah here

I hear the phone passed and Ashton says thanks to the boy with his phone.

Ashton: Hey
Lilly: Where are you? You said you'd be home at 5!
Ashton: I'm sorry, I just lost track of time! But I'm having a lot if fun and Michael invited all the guys to spend the night. Please can I stay?
Lilly: but I don't wanna stay alone with Taylor, he said he's inviting some girl he likes over and I don't wanna be here alone for that..
Ashton: Well... Hold on.

The phone goes almost silent. All I hear are muffled voices until Ashton comes back.

Ashton: Do you wanna come here and stay with us?
Lilly: Sure, um can you text me the address?
Ashton: Sure, um...bring your guitar...
Lilly: Fine, bye.
Ashton: Wait! And food. Okay yeah bye.

I roll my eyes and get up off the couch. I walk to my room and pick out something to wear. I pick my Nirvana crop top, it's grey and goes down to just below my belly button, and my black skinny jean that are ripped up.

Not shredded but not holes, somewhere in between...

I grab my converse and slip them on.

I walk into the bath room and do my make up.

Not too slutty but natural.

I then gather it up and put it in a little make up pouch.

I limp my way over to the kitchen and grab some bags of chips.

I hear my phone go off to see the address of where Ash is. It's close by.

Really close.

I then go wake up Taylor and tell him I'll be with Ash and not to fuck on my bed.

He laughs and starts to get up and ready for his friends.

"Remember no one in moms room!" I yell.

"I know I know, I'll be fine, go and have fun" He chuckles.

I hug him as he grabs my arm as I pull away.

"Don't forget your pills," He smiles handing me a bag of various pills for my injuries.

I finish packing my over night back pack and grab the chips.

"Okay I've got my make up, clothes, pjs, tooth brush, chips, hairbrush, perfume... Oh my guitar." I say my list to myself.

I shove all of my stuff into my golf cart.
