The Ultimate Summer: The sequel to the Ultimate Senior Year Plan

ASH

I needed time to be left alone after the conversation i had with Emily and i knew everybody wanted to know if I was okay and everything but I wished they would stop asking me these questions because I didn't want to talk about it at all. I was sat down on the porch just thinking to myself over everything in my life. I looked at my phone to see that it was Mandy calling me up. I answered the phone. "Hey Mandy" I greeted her while fiddling with my bracelet that was around my wrist. I didn't want anyone to know that i had relapsed. "How are you doing? Ben spoke to Luke and Ben told me what was going on" Mandy brought up the conversation and I sighed. "I'm fine but the guy won't get away with what he did to me" I told her and Mandy just sighed. "Good look Ash, you are my brother and if you need anything. Call me!" Mandy told me and I said okay. I hung up the phone quickly while watching the stars simmer throughout the night sky. Mike was upstairs alone pretty much brooding because he couldn't be at the hospital with Cal because he was sick once more and they needed to run a test. Luke went out to check out this other art gallery and I didn't know where everyone went. I saw Perrie sat down next to me and gave me a smile on her face. "Hey" Perrie told me while placing her head on my shoulder and I gave her a small smile as well. "It's nice out here" Perrie told me and i was glad that Perrie was one of those people who never asked me how I was doing. I needed that type of person in  my life and I was glad to have her in my life in every sense of the words. "Yeah it's relaxing to be kind of away from the city life in California" I told her and Perrie just nodded her head. "I'm glad you are here" I told her and she just smiled hugely at me. "I'm glad that Mike invited us to come with you guys for this trip actually" Perrie removed her head off my shoulder and adjusted the blanket she had wrapped around her shoulders.  It was quiet for a few moments listening to the waves crashing onto the shore. Perrie looked at me and grabbed my hand and we sat there without any words but I knew what Perrie was doing. She was comforting me and she was telling me silently that she always will have my back. Perrie got up from the porch and waved bye at me while kissing my forehead and I just looked at my hands and that's when I decided to get up from the porch and go inside as well. I saw Luke come in with a smile on his face. I was happy that Luke was having fun and that he was being social in every sense of the words. "How was your night" I asked Luke and Luke just smiled at me. "It was amazing, I brought you some food back from cheesecake Factory" Luke urged me the food in front of me and I just nodded my head. "You never said you were going out to eat" I pointed out to Luke and Luke just shrugged his shoulders. "It was kind of last minute, it was all of the gallery owners friends and family" Luke informed me and i rolled my eyes. "Yeah sure" I told him while putting the food down. "Okay, what did I do to cause you to be mad at me? I was sure that you told me to go out" Luke said while leaning against our bedroom door and I rolled my eyes. "You know what, I was waiting for you to come home" I told Luke and Luke grabbed my hands while shaking his head. "You know what, I'm staying with Mike" Luke slammed the bedroom door and left me all alone in the room with my thoughts. I laid down on the bed and stared at the ceiling tossing a ball up and down. I was nervous for tomorrow but I knew it needed to be done. We needed our justice for what he did to us. I must have dozed off because I heard a loud alarm and I put on some clothes before walking down the stairs to see that Luke was eating a bowl of cereal and once he saw me, he got up and left the room immediately. Mike rubbed the back of his neck and patted my shoulder. "Whatever is going on, you guys will be fine" Mike gave me a small smile. "I have to go" I told Mike and Mike just smiled at me. I got in the car with Emily, we both were nervous, I could just tell. "You okay Ash" Emily asked me and i gave her a thumbs up. We were arrived at his office. I got out of Emily's car and we entered the building. I looked around the office, it was filled with people from head to toe. The officers were sitting back and i just smiled at them a little bit before heading towards his office. I walked straight in but a whole crowd came with me. He hung up the phone and stared at me. "Ash" He greeted me with a dazzling smile that would make you want to trust him but now I knew what was behind that smile and I wasn't going to fall for it every again. "Don't say my name in fact, do you remember all these people that you sexually harassed" I asked him and he looked shocked at me and I stepped out of his office and that's when the officers came into his office and handcuffed him and Emily just glared at him while he walked out of the buildings while the paps took multiple photos and I was glad for that. "Let's go to the club to celebrate" Emily raised an eyebrow up at me and i just nodded. I found myself at the bar just drinking one drink after the drink.
