You'd think I got used to Ashton's stubbornness, but he just keeps surprising me.

''Hazeeeel! Just this time, I swear! It's been years since we've been to one!'' he whined, the pouty face already on. I groaned, shaking my head again for what felt like millionth time.

''Ashton, I told you, those things never end up well, it's just a stupid gathering where hormonal teenagers get drunk and take pot and get naked and-'' I rambled, thinking about it, making a disgusted face.

Ashton cut me off, immediately speaking in defence. ''We are hormonal teenagers and we need to let loose and have some fun sometimes. Please Hazel, when was the last  time you've been to a proper party and had a great time?'' he asked rhetorically, wiggling his eyebrows at me.

I sighed. ''We don't have to attend some lame party to have fun, Ash. We can order pizza and get beer and have a movie marathon and stuff. ''

Ashton shook his head. ''If that's your definition of fun, then I'm shocked, Hazel Lynn Edwards. '' he stated, grabbing an apple from the bowl on the table. He took a bite of it, averting his attention back to me.

''Why are you so against this? There will be drunk people, but since when are uou not up for having a round of beer and getting drunk? And by the way, you don't necessarily have to get naked, ya know?'' he said, faint smirk overtaking his features.

I let out a sarcastic laugh. ''Very funny, Fletcher.''

''No, seriously Hazel. ''

I sighed. ''I just cannot stand all the pressure and stuff. And you'll probably leave me to find yourself a hookup as soon as we get there, so reason more to stay and have an awesome Friends marathon. '' I told him, finishing with a satisfied smile.

Ashton made a face. ''I am not going to be 'getting a hookup', for your information. I never even do that.'' he defended, earning himself the seriously? look from me. He sighed, rolling his eyes. ''Okay, got me.'' Figures. I thought, shaking my head with an amused smile lingering on my face.

''But, everyone else's going!'' he suddenly exclaimed, desperatelly throwing his hands in the air. I huffed in annoyance.

''And who's everyone?''

''Michael, Calum, Luke and Aleisha. '' he said with hopeful eyes.

I fell back onto the cushions. ''No way.''

''But, why?'' Ashton pressed again.

''If the Barbie and her prince are going, then I'm definitely out. Period. '' I stated firmly, grabbing the remote and changing the stupid reality show Ashton was watching.

He whined. ''Hey, don't change it.'' I shrugged, grinning smugly at the blondish-haired boy. He crossed his arms over his chest, letting out an huge sigh in frustration.

''Why do you have to be so freaking difficult?'' he said, frown etched onto his face. I suddenly felt bad.

''Ashton, I told you, I can't stand those two.'' I reasoned, hoping he'd understand me, but he huffed again.

''Just tell me why?''

Now, it was my turn to huff. ''Because, she's a fudging Barbie, all chirpy and adorable, while her boyfriend is a stuck-up, self-obsessed jerk. Definitely not the type of people I like to hang out with.''

Ashton sighed, putting an arm around me, pulling me into his chest. I snuggled into him, closing my eyes as I listened to his steady heartbeat.

''You're so judgemental. Maybe, if you gave them both a chance, you'd realise that they're not that bad. ''

I resisted the urge to roll.my eyes again. ''And you'd know that, how exactly? You've known for them less than a few days and you already know everything about them. Please Ash. '' I puffed in disapproval.

''That's not what I'm saying. What I'm saying is that you better get to know them before you judge them. How that you don't like them, but you seemed to be perfectly fine with Mike and Cal?'' Great question, my friend.

I shrugged. ''They seem like a nice guys.''

Ashton chuckled lightly. ''And you'd know that, how exactly?'' he mocked my previous statement, gaining himself a light slap on the chest. ''Ow, what? I'm just asking what you asked me. ''

''Whatever Ash. Stop with the interrogation. ''

''Only if you stop refusing to come on this party and give the two of our now friends a chance.'' he retorted.

I groaned. ''You're not gonna let it go, are you?''

''Nope.''

''Ugh.'' I exclaimed. ''Fine. Alright. I'll go to that stupid lame-ass party.''

''And be nice to Luke and Aleisha?''

''Yeah, that too.'' I murmured, burying my face in his chest, clutching onto the material of his shirt.

Ashton giggled. ''That tickles.''

And I laugh as well. ''Shut up and let me get some sleep.''
