Ashtons's POV

"What the hell are you doing." Michael warns, "don't you dare put that nug in your mouth, Lucas."

He drops it, "okay, okay" raising his hands in defense he murmers, "what's got your dick in a knot, eh?"

"Your mom."

"Kiss my white ass, Michael!"

"Are you going to pack that up or talk with dick in your mouth."

"Alright, that's it, I'm fucking eating it."

I take it upon myself to snatch the bud from Luke's mouth and pack it myself, "you two play too much, get a room."

It's Friday, Michael and Luke are over at my place helping me set up for the party I am throwing tonight. But really, they're only smoking my weed and eating all the food I keep laying out, "get some cups from the cabinets and put them on the table next to the drinks."

Last thing I need is someone drunk plundering through my shit. Once I had a girl taking shots out of a bowl because she couldn't find the cups that were in complete plain sight.

"Yes'suh, anything else suh?" Luke mimicks, doing exactly as I say.

"Yeah, you should really reconsider that dick in your mouth," I shoot, opening the glass sliding door to retrieve the alcohol for the night, "what's everyone's choice of beverage tonight ladies?"

"Not vodka again, if I wake up next to another girl I don't know after a night I don't remember again I may just cut pussy and parties off for life." Michael declares, like he'd ever do that- considering they forced this party down my throat like Luke does my weed.

"Fireball and Tequila it is then." I determine, maybe everyone will drink up and the party will be over sooner than I hope.

"Fuck me man." Luke exasperates looking down at his phone, he shoots a quick text and throws the device halfway across the room, "I never get a break."

"You contradict yourself when you say “fuck me” and “i never get a break”, don't ya think?" I retort, Michael chuckling at Luke's current state.

"Shut up for once, Ashton."

"Mmmm, what's up with you."

"Don't fucking worry about it."

"Quit being a pansy or I'll put you back in your cage."

Luke flicks me off, "my sister is coming today, blessing me with her "I'm going to fuck all your friends because i can" attitude."

"Wow. That's one way to talk about your sister. When can I meet her?" I joke, which earns a sharp punch in the arm, "I'm just fucking with you. Come on, it can't be that bad."

"No, you just don't know. She cannot know about this party tonight. I don't care what happens and if one of you slip up and mention it, it'll cost you a dick and a nut."

Michael gasps, taken aback, "you can't just take one, that's just flat out Savage."

I wonder why Luke is so flustered but only for a second. What I can't stop thinking about is why Candy hasn't called me today. I know we're not on a serious level yet but still, she crosses my mind and I can't help but wonder if I cross hers too. Probably not.

Candy and I met through a friend of a friend of a friend. Basically I got her drugs and she gave me head. Romantic, right? There's nothing there and she's the only chick that I've been with that didn't want more out of it. Guess you want what you can't have right?

I slide open my phone and shoot her a text,

[To Candy: will I be seeing you tonight bbg? ;)]

"Ashton, we're dealing with a real life crisis right now and youre sexting." Luke shakes his head, "I can't believe you right now."

"Who says im sexting."

"Doesn't matter, my sister will be here any minute and she wants to go get some food. Don't make me go alone."

"Wait, she's coming here?" I question his intelligence sometimes, "how the hell isn't she going to find out about the party when there's alcohol and party shit everywhere!"

Luke puts his face in his hands, "well I already gave her your address so it's too late for her to go to my place. She probably won't pay attention anyways but don't invite her--thats all I care about. But that's a yes on going with me to lunch?"

"I'll meet your sister that fucks all your," Michael laughs, a knock at the door cutting him off.

Luke internally dies alittle when he walks to the door. His zombie imitation on point until he swings it open, "London!" He smiles, his once bitch face is now as fake as most girls lips, "how was the cab?"

"The driver was fat and stunk of old pizza. What is it that you like about this place so much?" Is the first thing I hear.

Ouch.

"Oh, yeah, it's good to see you haven't changed a bit." Luke stands out of the way for her to enter, "come in and meet everyone."

When Luke steps out of the way I'm taken aback by the view. I see why he'd not want her at my party tonight. Guys would look at her like a new toy. Pick her up, pass her around, and then find a new toy. But by the way Luke has described her, she looks at boys the same way.

"This is Ashton, the brains. Michael, the balls--"

London, I'm guessing her name is, cuts him off, "and let me guess, you're the runt."

Luke rolls his eyes, "Ashton, Michael, this is my wonderful sister London."

"Wonderful you are," Michael flirts, "and why haven't you introduced us sooner Lucas?"

Luke furrows his eyebrows, changing the subject, "so you wanted lunch? Where were you thinking?"

All I could think about was the awe I was in. My eyes rake her body and I can make sense of why he feels as if she has all his friends in her pocket. When I finally reach her eyes she's already looking back at me, guiltily doing the same thing as I.

My phone buzzing redirects my attention, Candy's name flashing a couple times.

[From Candy: youll be seeing alot of me tonight xxx]

[From Candy: come get me, im bored and lonely]

My lips curl into a smile,

[To Candy: send me the address, I'm coming x ;)]

[From Candy: not yet, but you will be ;)]

I get the address and type it into my phone.

"Sorry guys, London, but I'm going to have to catch yous later."

"Oh, so Candy is actually giving you the time of day?" Luke smirks.

Okay, I got him.

"But before I go," I shoot Luke a daring wink, "London, I'm having a huge party later. You should come, since you're going to be here for a good minute you should meet some people and enjoy yourself."

And with that, I hit directions and I'm out the door.
