"Hey ash, what's up?" Calum answers, picking up his phone.
"I have an idea."
For the past 3 years, Ashton has been obsessed with Luke. and for the past 3 years, Luke has had a girlfriend that Ashton despises.
"Mhm?" Calum mumbles, direction Ashton...
"So? Are the steps good? Do I need to change them?" I ask Michael and Calum
"They're good." Michael says. "I also think that Minnie would agree on step one." He rolls his eyes.
Calum and Minnie, the lucky shits, have been dating for I think 2 years now. and let's just say they're hard core. (Calum's been talking to me about proposing to Minnie soon). Neither Luke, Michael, or I mind her. She's a chill girl and we all like to hang out with her a ton.
Calum smiles, gazing off into the distance, probably thinking about his lover-girl.
Michael shrieks as he sees a lump start to form in Calum's jeans.
"Woah, woah, chill cal." Michael screams.
"Thanks mike, for scaring the turned-on out of me." Calum rolls his eyes at the slightly shorter boy.
"Anyways, wanna get started on that first step?" Calum suggests.
"Okay, what do I do?" I ask.
"First, we're going to the gym. then, we're going through your closet and taking out clothes, then we're going to the mall to get you new clothes. and last, we're going to do something about your hair." Calum lists.
I pout, reaching up to touch a curly piece of hair that's hanging on my forehead. "What's wrong with my hair?" I ask.
"It's not 'sexy' ash. it's cute." Michael says, using air quotes.
"Can't I be both though?" I pout again.
"Look at Alycia. what do you see when you look at her?" Calum asks.
"She's a slut." I deadpan.
"No, she's sexy. and that's Luke's type." Michael notes.
"fine, fine. I'm just saying that my hairs curly and barely manageable, I don't know what you think you're gonna do with it." I shrug.
"We have some things in mind." Michael smirks, glancing at Calum.
I hesitantly nod.
"Okay, Ashton, I'll meet you at the gym in half an hour. We both need to change and Michael needs to go home to hide from me so he doesn't have to go." Calum sighs, Michael laughing.
"Okay. see you then." I say, as the two get up to leave my apartment.
I sigh as they shut the door.
It's worth it.
It's worth it.
It's worth it.
It's worth it.
I keep muttering that phrase as I change into a t-shirt and basketball shorts, slipping on my sneakers.
I pout as I look in the mirror at my curls, knowing whatever Michael and Calum want to do to them won't be good.
Luke: hey Ash, what are you doing tonight? I was thinking you, me, and the boys could have a night out
Ashton: I'll have to check with Calum, we're going to the gym in a bit. I'll text you back later when I know
Luke: okay, have fun
I sigh, picking up my keys and walking towards the parking garage.
I admit, I'm not the fittest person, but I play the drums and you do get quite a workout from that, so my arms are built a bit.
Once I get to the gym, I see a grinning Calum sitting on a weight machine.
I groan, knowing Calum's more fit than me and he's gonna give me the most brutal workout of my life.
•
"Chill Ashton, you'll get used to it. in like a month, you'll be a pro." Calum reassures me.
"Is that how long it will take to get Luke?" I frown.
"Who knows." Calum shrugs. "But right now you should be concerned about what you're going to wear tonight. I'll send Minnie over to help you. see you tonight!" Calum waves, walking in the opposite direction to get to his car in the parking lot.
I shrug, hopping in my car and preparing myself for the wrath of Minnie's fashion sense.
As soon as I walk into the lobby of my apartment building, I see a scowling black-haired girl.
"What took you so long?" She asks, huffing.
"There was traffic? Look, I'm sorry Min, can we please just pick out my clothes." I frown.
"Fine." She says.
We walk up to my apartment and enter my bedroom, then she starts tearing through my closet.
"I've heard everything. you've liked Luke for a while, hate Alycia, which, by the way, I do to." she states.
I give her a funny look, because I thought her and Alycia were best friends.
"Just using her to get information, you're welcome. and you wanna look good for Luke, so you need Calum's help. trust me, I get where you're coming from." She laughs.
"Oh yeah, speaking of which, Michael mentioned you earlier today and well, let's just say Calum had a little ... problem." I grimace.
"Aw, how sweet! That's all I needed." She giggles. "Anyways, we're looking for sexy. which will be hard." She says, rifling through my clothes.
After about 5 minutes of Minnie complaining how bad my wardrobe is, she finally finds something for me to wear.
"Change." she orders, shoving me into the bathroom.
She's picked out for me a black button up and black skinny jeans.
"Are you sure?" I ask her once I step out of the bathroom.
"Of course I am. Now I have to go catch Calum before he leaves. Bye Ash." she smiles, turning around and leaving my apartment.
"Bye min." I mumble after she shuts the door.
I groan, tugging on my hair.
Luke: do you want me to pick you up tonight?
Ashton: please do
Let's just say that all of this stress is going to cause me to drink tonight... a lot.
Luke: I'll be there in 5 minutes
Ashton: got it
