The Jerk is my Groomsmen

Chapter 1

"Ashley!! Wake up it's time to go to school" 

"Okay i'm up, i'm up." I quickly rolled out of bed only to fall down on my hard wooden floor. 

"Ow" I groaned.  "Ashley you better get off of that floor this instant" screamed my mother.

"Mom, I don't do it on purpose, do you think that I enjoy this?" 

My mom opened m door with a big smile on her face for 48 she looked really good. My dad sure is one lucky guy she is average sized with beautiful brown eyes and a head full of undyed brown hair. 

My mom started laughing before she even attempted to help me up. 

"Oh sweetie, every morning.... this is some ritual now huh?"

"No, mommy" I said impersonating a 4 year old.

"Oh lord, alright lets get you up." After I was standing tall and proud, well not really more like standing at  5'0 and sad I was finally able to pick out my outfit for the day. I picked a mini floral hi-low dress that stopped right above my knees paired with some strappy sandals. I kept my makeup to a minimum which consisted of mascara and lip gloss. Lastly, I left my hair down with it's natural waves. I stepped back and looked at myself in the mirror and I am not the cocky type but I looked pretty good. I grabbed my black side bag and put the homework that I did last night in it. After I grabbed my bag I made my way downstairs.

As I made my way downstairs I saw my mom and dad playing with my baby sister Emily who is 6 years old. I went behind her putting my finger over my lips to signal to my parents to be quiet. I snuck up behind Emily and started to tickle her. Her laughter was music to my ears. This was a great way to start my morning. I kept on tickling her until I felt someone wrap their arms around my waist and spin me around. I knew that there was only one person who has ever really done that to me. Once I was safely on the ground and I was no longer that dizzy. I saw my older brother Carlos smiling like a goofball. I instantly tackled him in a hug.

"Carlos!!, what are you doing here? I have missed you so much? How is college life? Did you miss me? You better have missed me or we are going to have some serious proble-" Carlos instantly covered my mouth. 

"Are you done yet Road Runner?" I nodded my head vigorously.

"Good, I am visiting while I am on break from school. I am going to be here for two weeks then I head back up to bring Amanda back down with me, then I come back down for Aunt May's wedding."

"AMANDA!!" I started to jump up and down.

"Are you kidding me, is that all that you heard."

Amanda is Carlos's girlfriend of 6 years already. They have been dating since Carlos's freshman year in High school. Yup you guessed right they are High school sweethearts. I wish that I could have something like that but considering that I am in my Senior year of High school. I doubt it. 

"Sorry, that I miss my sister!"

"You text her everyday"

"No, I don't..before I could continue my phone cut me off signaling that I had a new text message. I pointed my finger at Carlos to tell him that this is not over with. He stood there with an amused expression on his face. 

I took out my phone from my bag and it read

From: Amanda(Sister)

Good morning love, hope you have a great day at school today. Call me when you have a chance today we have to talk about some stuff. Until then XOXO.

I looked up to see everyone looking down at me and smiling knowing that Carlos won. I sent a quick reply and put away my phone. 

I made a weird cough sound.. "Um, yea, I see your point but that's not enough. Alright well I have to go to school."
