              Ash POV (Duh!!)

Chapter 9: A Day as Ash

"Ash, it’s your turn to wash the dishes" my sister yelled, from across the hallway. I was in the bathroom, brushing my teeth with red wine. It always gave that kicking favour, the energy I need to head on with my day.

"What's today?" I yelled back, putting down my brush.

"Saturday!" she answered.

Saturday, that reminds me. I had something important to do but what it is? I can't seem to remember. I opened up the tap and rinsed my face with cold water. What did I forget; I looked into the mirror at my own reflection. What was supposed to happen today?

Suddenly my phone rang inside my pocket and I answered "Hello".

"Hi Babe" a voice replied back. Babe? I have a girlfriend? When? Who? I looked at the caller ID and it was, Brooke.

"What's up Brooke?" I tried sounding normal, trying to remember who she was. But I only got a headache.

"I'm just so excited about our date today" she chirped

And that’s when it hit me. Oh, I remember.

~Later week~

"Ash" a girl yelled, walking in my direction. I was at my locker taking a sip of my alcohol, before I put it away.

"Yeah!" I replied, she was right in front of me. Her eyebrows were slanted and her tongue was between her teeth.

"What is this?" she showed me a bracelet that I gave her on our one-week anniversary.

"The bracelet I made for you" I smiled, patting her head. She slapped my hand away and gave me a dead stare.

"What's my name?" she snapped, with a lot of sassiness.

"Macy" I answered, not understanding why it was so important.

"THEN, WHY THE HELL DOES IT SAY MELISSA??" she yelled, throwing the bracelet on the floor. Then she ran off.

"Does that mean we’re not dating?" I asked, looking at her blurred image as she left running off.

~2 weeks ago~

I was lying on my couch looking up at the ceiling, thinking about what type of alcohol I should buy today. When, suddenly my doorbell rang "I'll get it." I stood up from the couch, and walked to the door when I opened it. It was Melissa. She wrapped her arms around me, and kissed my soft lips tenderly. That’s when I smelled the red wine: 7 deathly sin filled her mouth. I never really understood why she drank when she couldn't handle it.

"Melissa, what have you been drinking?" I asked, gasping for air. She wouldn't stop kissing me and I got annoyed.

"I missed you." she hiccupped; then she bit my ear. Slipping her hands up my shirt.

"Hey Ash, who was that at the door?" my sister came from the kitchen and stopped looking at Melissa and then towards me.

"Who's she?" Melissa sneered, looking directly at Ashley giving her a death glare. Here's my chance.

"My wife!" I answered, getting away from Melissa's grip and hugged Ashley.

"What" they both questioned.

"You're cheating on me!" Melissa yelled, angrily.

"I guess so you can leave know." I exclaimed, waving goodbye.

"You didn't break up with me, I broke up with you," she cried, running off.

Ashley walked over to the door and closed it. Then she gave me a look of what-is-wrong-with-you.

I shrugged and jumped back into the couch and fell asleep.

~Back to the Present~

I never thought I would be able to go on a date after those two. I had others, but I can't really remember their names. I never really "like" people I just go out with them because they seem to like me. I didn't want to be rude, so I said yes. Until they end up annoying me, and that's when I snapped.

"Ash, are you there?" she asked.

"Yeah, I can't wait to see you at TGIF, looking fine." I flirted.

"Oh" she giggled, and then she hung up.

I looked at the mirror and then picked up my wine bottle. I guess I'm going to need a lot more of this to survive the day with Brooke.

"ASH!" Ashley broke through the door and scolded at me. "Go wash the dishes now.”

"I can't I have a date today!" I walked passed her, but she grabbed my arm.

"Then when you get back don’t forget to wash it. I know it's not going to last long." she said with a sigh.

~At TGIF~

We made it to TGIF, and Brooke hasn't stopped talking. Her meal was untouched and her mouth was flapping, like a parrot. I just cupped my face with one hand and played with my food, Are all girls annoying like her? I thought to myself. I picked up my fork and started poking at my burger and then remembered.

My name isn't Sweetheart. Whiskey lover, my names Prue. Say it right or not at all

Prue, now that's a girl, I don't mind being with. I wonder what she's doing on this fine Saturday night. I bet she's having more fun than I am, I glanced over at Brooke and then at my burger. Prue is different though, she doesn't brag about herself, or compliment me. She's never positive and she doesn't see me as a red head to sleep with, so interesting. I shouldn't be wasting my time with girls like Brooke; I should be looking for a Prue.

"So when I came back from cheer practice-". I picked up my Coke and tossed it at her chest. She gasped in shock and started screaming.

"What was that for?" she barked, placing napkins on her chest. While she fanned herself with her hands.

"I think we should break up.” I said walking out on her.
