Part 11
I left Calum's house at 4:30 and headed home. I was greeted at the door by my dogs. Ellie and Winston. Ellie was a Border Collie and Winston a Chocolate Brown Labrador. "Hello little woofers," I bent down and patted their heads before continuing into the kitchen where I found Mum standing by the stove stirring a pot.
"Hey Mum," I smiled getting a cup out of a draw.
"I was wondering when you were coming home, your Father and I are going out tonight and Cameron is staying at Josh's house so you'll have to sleep at someone else's house,"
"Muuuum, I'm not 10! I cant spend one night by myself!" I protested as I poured myself a glass of Coke. Right then my phone rang. Jess. I slid the unlock and answered.
Me: Hey Jess bear
Jess: I cant come tonight, Mum and Dad are out and I have to baby sit Holly and James!
Me: My parentals are out too, what if I sleep at yours? And you can meet the boys another night
Jess: Hang on I'll ask
.................
Jess: Yeah Mum says thats fine, its only pizza for dinner. Come over at 6:30?
Me: Yeah I'll be there
"Who was that?" Mum asked
"Jess, can I sleep at hers tonight?"
"Of course, just come and tell me when you want to leave."
"6:00." It was a long drive to Jess's.
6:42 At Jess' house.
Jess was rich. But she wasn't one of those snotty stuck up rich kids, if she wanted something her parents made her buy it with money she had to work for. She lived on about 3 acres of land, her house even had massive gates at the front. It was a mansion to say the least.
"Raga Muffin!"
"Silly Bear!" I called getting out of the car. Yes we have extremely queer nicknames for each other. What of it?
Hollie and James were Jess' young siblings. Holly was 7 and James was 10, usually when I was over they would just go and play upstairs and Jess and I just had to make sure nobody died.
Jess and I sat on the kitchen table eating pizza from the box. Yeah cause we're animals like that. As I stuffed my face with a slice of cheese Jess turned to me,"So tell me about the boys! Every detail! How you met them, everything!"
I laughed and began to tell her about when Mum and I took cookies over and everything after that
When I got to the part about our game of Truth or Dare I sighed at the thought of my kiss with Ashton. As I told her she screamed and cupped her hands over her mouth.
By the time I'd finished my story we'd eaten most of the pizza, making sure we left more than enough for James and Holly.
"I want lollies!" Jess announced as we lay on her bed talking.
"Woolies?" I asked
"Yes!" We looked at the clock. 8:12. It was still early. We told James and Holly, grabbed hoodies and ugg boots and headed up the road to Woolworths. We were both in pajama pants, mine batman and Jess' were Elmo. It was only a 10ish minute walk to the shops. We made our way to the chocolate isle and started picking out starbursts, skittles and a block of caramel chocolate when I heard,"Ashleigh?" Jess and I turned around to see Kylie standing there with a girl and boy who I'd never seen.
"I thought it was you!" Kylie laughed as she embraced me in a hug
"Hi I'm Kylie!" Kylie turned to Jess
"Jess..."
"What are you doing here?" Kylie smiled turning back to me
"I'm sleeping at Jess' house and we needed more lollies," I laughed trying to be casual
"Funnsies! We should hang out again last night was fun! Hey whats your number?" Kylie handed me her phone and I put my digits in smiling and handing it back,"I'll text you sometime, nice to meet you!" and with that Kylie and her friends left.
"Is that the one from the party?"
"Yup."
We bought our stuff and headed back, we eventually ended up watching movies and falling asleep on the couch at 2am.
I slowly opened my eyes and looked around, it took me a moment to work out I was on Jess' couch. I looked down the see my phone lit up. Blocked number.
Me: Hello?
Blocked: Listen up! Stay away from Ashton!
Me: Who is this?
Blocked: I saw the photos at the party and he's mine!
Me: Woah calm down and listen for 2 seconds! You are clearly a huge fan and so am I, I know where you're coming from. But you don't own Ashton! Nobody does!
Blocked: If I see you kissing him again you're dead!
And the line went dead.
By this time Jess had woken up. "What was that?"
"Some crazy fan girl telling me if I don't stay away from Ashton they'll kill me,"
"Wow! Bitches be crazy in this fandom," she laughed,"Just forget them."
"She said,'If I see you kissing him again you're dead,"
"So?"
"I've only kissed Ashton at his house and on Calum's deck! What the hell!"
"Come on let's go eat ice cream and you can call Ashton later and tell him to watch out," Jess pulled me up off the couch and we headed for the kitchen.
We sat on the bench eating cookies and cream Ben and Jerry's while talking about random stuff. At about 4am we grabbed our blankets and went to crash in Jess' room.
