Chapter 16

"Mind telling me why I'm going twenty over the speed limit?" I asked putting on my signal lights to change lanes.

It was already getting dark out and getting colder by the minute. Reaching forward to turn the heat on I was mentally cursing the boys out. Of course on the day of the big date they would go out and do something stupid.

"Apparently Calum and Michael are wasted and Luke is scared."

Those two dumb asses. They should know by now that they act like complete fools when they're drunk.

The light ahead suddenly turned red causing me to press down swiftly on the brakes, "Shit." I exclaimed hitting my steering wheel.

"Don't get all worked up, I would like to get there in one piece." Kori said staring down at the gps on her phone.

"Turn right." She instructed once the light switched to green.

We ended up in a suburban neighborhood with trees lining either side of the rode and modern two story houses built in close proximity to each other. Christmas decorations had already been set up with reindeer and snowmen placed over the lawns.

"Over there!" Kori said suddenly, pointing to a house just up ahead on the right.

Sure enough there stood three boys on the lawn staring up at one of the windows. I parked sloppily not really caring if it was legal or not and rushed out the car. The cold was like a slap in the face making me huddle in on myself.

"Kori stay in the car." I instructed as she stepped a foot out.

"Fine with me I'm not freezing my ass." She replied closing the door.

I walked to where they were standing and watched as Michael threw rocks at the window. Luke was trying to hold back Calum who insisted on trying to ride one of the reindeer that sat in front.

"What the fuck is going on?" I asked shivering a bit.

"Ashton thank god." Luke sighed pulling Calum over to me.

"How was your date? Did you get some?" Calum laughed bending over as if it was the funniest thing ever.

My cheeks warmed a bit but I ignored it shoving Calum's shoulder almost knocking him to the floor, "Shut up you moron."

"Juliet! Juliet!" Michael called throwing countless rocks at the window. The tapping got louder and louder and I was mentally praying the window didn't break.

A van was parked in the driveway indicating someone was home only adding to my worry.

"Who's house is this?"

"I don't know I just followed them here." Luke shrugged.

I pinched the bridge of my nose at the lack of common sense right before me. Kori honked the car horn which sounded a lot louder due to the quietness of the neighborhood.

"Be quiet will you!" I yelled so she could hear through the windows.

In return she stuck me the middle finger and I just waved her off turning back to my stupid friends.

The porch light turned on and I knew we were in deep shit.

"Help me get them in the fucking car now!" I ordered Luke as I went to grab Michael.

"Ashton are you my Juliet?" Michael gasped reaching forward to stroke my cheek.

"No Romeo now get your ass in the car."

Just as they were all sitting in the back seat the front door swung open revealing a skinny bald dude clutching his phone in his hand.

"What do you think you're doing?"
