Friday, February 24th:

Today is the official last day at this beach house with Maddie & Drew. We've been packing our bags & loading them into the car preparing to leave.

While Drew went to get gas for the car so we didn't have to do it on our road trip, Maddie & I decided to play or try to play tennis again. The whole time Maddie was complaining as she kept getting hit by the ball or she couldn't hit the ball back to me.

At 1:00pm we said our goodbyes to the house & started driving back to our apartments. The first half of the drive Maddie was going to drive & the second half after we get food I was going to drive since Drew always drives & needed a break.

hahahah 😂

We manage to safely make it to Maccas to get food as we are starving.

"Ashlie swap seats with Maddie now!" Drew demands which makes me giggle because Maddie has almost hit 4 cars on our way here. I don't even know where this girl got her license.

"Okay I'm not a bad driver." Maddie says a bit offended while she gets out of the car.

"Maddie you almost hit 3 cars!" Drew says.

"It was actually 4." I say while jumping into the driver seat.

"Even worse." Drew mumbles which makes both me & Maddie laugh.

We order our food & head to my apartment as that's where we are going to stay for the rest of the afternoon. We make it to the parking garage of my apartment, we grab our bags & food. We make it to the elevator & I hit the button the floor my apartment is on.

MADISON'S POV:

We make it to the elevator & as Ashlie hits the button to her floor I notice Drew looking at her smiling. This whole week I've notice the little looks Drew & Ashlie give each other & how Ashlie gets giddy when she talks to Drew. I know they like each other but they are yet to admit it. It's kinda cute.

ASHLIE'S POV:

We've been together in my apartment for 2 hours eating & talking just enjoying time with each other, Drew left 20 mins ago so it's just me & Maddie sitting in my living room talking.

"So what's going on with you & Drew?" Maddie questions wriggling her eyebrows.

"What do you mean?" I say looking up from my phone.

"I see the way you look at each other." Maddie says while I furrow my eyebrows confused.

"I don't know what you are talking about." I say confused.

"Sure you don't. Just get together already." Maddie reply's.

"Maddie we hardly know each other!" I exclaim.

"Yeah but you guys clearly like each other. What's the worst that could happen?" Maddie explains while looking back at her phone.

The truth is yes I do like Drew but we hardly know each other & besides I don't think Drew has feelings for me like that. I'm kind of scared of commitment. My last relationship before Noah didn't end so great. I dated this guy back when I was 19 after my guy best friend disappeared from my life & it was one of the most toxic relationships I've ever been in. With all the fights, drugs & hate sex it was never a match made in heaven. It started off really good but towards the end it would be constant fights & lashing out at each other, it would get physical at times but with the amount of abuse my mum gave me & the fact I was pretty much high every time it didn't hurt that much in fact I would be so high I wouldn't even know that it happened & then the next day I'd wake up with a bruised body. It basically ended when I moved to LA & blocked him on everything since he couldn't track me or know where I am. The first time I visited Sadie & Isabelle I found out that he's been in jail countless times & on house arrest for a while. That was honestly good news for me so I don't have to see him again even though I know he probably doesn't even remember me.

Noah was a blessing in disguise, he showed me what love was actually mean't to feel like & always spoilt me even though I didn't deserve it. It was a bit of a struggle with drugs while being with him but we manage to get through it together. So relationships are always a scary thing to think about.

Maddie stays with me for another hour & a half before she decides to go home. We have 3 more weeks til we go to Charleston & meet the rest of the cast & I'm actually starting to get really excited. I mean at first I was really nervous but after getting to know Drew & Maddie more I feel like I wouldn't be alone in this. At this point I know that we are all going to become a family & it's going to be the best job offer I've ever taken.

I smoke a joint & decide to watch a show before I go to bed. At 10:00pm I head to bed & sleep after a long week I just had.
