Me, Myself, and You

Chapter 10

Ashley 

"Yes." I told Brian with a sure look on my face. 

"So you do want to be part of this business? Because Ms.Clarkson, you will be the new leader." he said. I could we was nervous for this, but this is why I want to do it. My father worked hard for this, and here I am not following in his footsteps. 

"Brian, shut the fuck up and tell what this key is for." I said giving the key to him. 

He is shocked for a second, then smiles and takes the key. "I knew who would join." 

I rolled my eyes and he led my downstairs to my basement. My father spent a lot of time here but I was always too scared to go down there, I went down once and that was it. 

We walked in and you could smell that nobody was in here months. 

Brian opens a door with the key. He gestures for me to walk in first. 

The room was huge. There was a table with at least 20 seats. A huge tv screen on the wall. A desk with Clarkson carved into the wood. 

"This is where meeting are takin place at." he said. 

"Great, tomorrow I want anyone who has anything to do with this business in this room." I said. 

"I'll get that done."   

I gave him a smug smile and he left. I looked around the room and sat on the huge table. I lied down on the cold wood and let my eyes drift to sleep. 

A loud thud came from upstairs. My body became alert, but I got a little headache because I sat up too fast. 

Everything was fine when I went upstairs. The front door was closed, nothing looked stolen. 

I slowly, but surely walked up the stairs. 

"Melony?!" I asked seeing her lying down on my bed. 

"Hey gurl!" she said lifting her head and plopped it back down. 

I walked over to her and leaned over to see her face. Terrible. 

"What the fuck is wrong with you?" 

"Saaaaaam." she said rolling over to the other side of the bed. Sorry did I say the bed? I meant to say my bed that she was RUINING!

"Stop! You're ruining my pillows!" I said fixing it, "Give me Teddy." 

She giggled, "Here's your teddy bear." 

"Are you pregnant?" I asked her sitting down on the bed next to her. 

"Noooo." now I got her attention. 

"Anyways," she punched my arm, "whats up with you?" 

Oh you know the usual. I joined a gang. But nothing special. 

"My life is boring as hell." 

"Well, Dean hasn't been doing anything either so..." 

"No. I'm not associating myself with him. He's dangerous." 

"Wow... you're scared of going out with Dean but when Mason offers you to fake date him you don't say no. You know how many different types of STD's Mason probably has." she adding an extra scoff at the end. 

I rolled my eyes at her. The difference between Mason and Dean is that I know what Mason is like. He's a player, he's considered a "bad boy", and blah blah blah. Dean...I don't really know him. 

"Melony you can't force me to go out with Dean." I said looking at her raising my eyebrow. 

"I'm not forcing you to do anything."

"FINE! You're PRESSURING for me to go out with him." I might be starting my period, I don't know. But right now Melony is kinda ticking me off. 

She got up and stormed out of my room. 

Ugh. I just need to be alone. 

My best friend was been rather distant from me. 

I don't have a boyfriend. 

Look at me. It's a Saturday night and the only person in the BIG EMPTY FUCKING HOUSE IS ME.

I rubbed my temples, and had the lamest idea ever. 

I called Mason. 

AND BEFORE YOU JUDGE ME...nevermind judge me because quite frankly I'm judging myself right now. 

I picked up my phone and called Stalker. 

"Hey Mason." 

"What Ashley? I'm kind of busy right now." 

"Well then never mind." 

"No you called me for a reason so tell me." 

"Well you're busy so it wouldn't matter anyway"I snapped back. 

"Shh baby." 

"Excuse me?!" 

"I wasn't talking to you. Bye Ashley."

I threw my phone at the wall. 

I need to find a way to release my anger. I threw on a hoodie and grabbed my car keys. 

Let's see how fast this lambo can go.
