15| "I want my Ashton back and I want him now."

Picking up Luke I half expected things to be incredibly awkward. But, it wasn't. At all actually. The blond and I acted just as we always have, but this time I connected with Luke's words a bit more than usual.

"Uh I really don't think so," I laughed.

"What do you mean you don't think so? I spent twenty minutes on this!" Luke replied with his english essay in hand.

"Yeah, I can tell. Luke you can't write an essay in twenty minutes and expect an A. Especially from Mrs. Collin she's hard," I sighed.

Luke read me his essay that he managed to write twenty minutes before I picked him up. It sucked to say the least, and I haven't read it but I can guarantee that half the words were misspelled.

He sighed next to me, "I'm fucked, aren't I?"

I nodded, "it's okay though. It's senior year not like it really matters."

"True, but what does matter is my mom killing me! She's a teacher Charlie! A teacher! When she sees my grade my ass will be whooped," Luke groaned.

I placed a comforting hand on his knee, almost pulling it back due to what felt like pure electricity flowing through my arm. I could tell Luke felt it too as he looked at me with his blue eyes holding a glimmer that I've never seen before.

"You'll be okay," I smiled trying to ignore the what I can now deem as strong sexual tension that sliced through the car.

"You know Charlie," Luke licked his lips. "This may be a little weird but I'm going to do it anyways."

And that's how Luke and I ended up making out in my car while we were parked in the student parking lot waiting for school to begin.

Kissing my best friend felt oddly comforting. But also slightly strange in the sense that it's definitely not something I'm used to, but I'm down to change that if you know what I'm saying.

"Get a fucking room," Michael said as he got into my car with the two other boys following in suit.

"This is my car!" I retaliated, awkwardly leaning against the door away from Luke as if we weren't tongue fighting a few seconds ago.

"She's got a point mate," Ashton nodded. "But still, gross."

"Just because you two can't get any action doesn't mean we need to degrade good ol' Lukey over here," Cal smiled placing a firm hand on the blond's shoulder. "I'm proud of you mate, finally a girl who you don't have to worry about catching chlamydia from!"

"I can to pull girls!" Michael argued.

"Abigail Breslin does not count as a girl Michael," I scoffed. Earning a course of boyish laughter and snorts from the three.

"At least I didn't fuck her!" Michael replied with his eyes narrowed on Luke.

My best friend- whatever he is rolled his blue eyes, "I was drunk! We've been over this!"

"She made your dick hard. Drunk or not Lucas, you still fucked her," Calum pursed his lips.

"And that's the tea sis," Ash finally spoke up.

"Shut up Ashton," we all groaned in unison.

Recently Ashton has been saying some new phrases and I really don't know how to feel about them. Some that I just can't get out of my head would be, "sister snapped", "spill the tea", and repeatedly calling everyone "sis". It's getting out of hand to say the least.

"Shut up Calum. You vape, g-r-o-s-s," Ashton spelled out, epitomizing each letter.

"I may vape but I don't talk like a pre-teen girl, I didn't date Abigail Breslin, and I didn't fuck Abigail Breslin so basically I'm the superior out of all of you so suck. My. Dick," Calum smiled as he hit his Juul. Man do I love me some mango-nicotine infused air.

The car was silent for a moment, I think the boys were trying to take in all the flames Cal just threw at them. I can't blame them though, those were some pretty fire roasts.

                                 —

"Do I put my arm around you?" Luke whispered in my ear.

It was lunch. The day has gone by pretty smoothly, my classes so far didn't make me fall asleep and school was nearly over; only two more hours.

I gave Luke a confused/ "what the fuck kind of a question is that" face, "uh, sure?"

"Okay," he whispered back as his arm slung around my shoulders, pulling me closer to him.

"Why are we whispering?" Ashton leaned in from the other side of the table.

"Yeah we can hear everything you guys say this is pointless," Calum chimed in, also whispering.

"Aww look at the happy couple!" Hannah squealed walking up to the table.

"We're not a couple," Luke and I said in unison.

To be honest with you, I have no idea as to what Luke and I's current relationship status is. We're definitely not dating, I don't recall agreeing to that but obviously our relationship has excelled from simply being best friends. I guess we're "talking" as the teens say these days.

"So far only one group of girls have given Charlie a dirty look! This is going great!" Michael clapped his hands together in pure excitement.

I get dirty looks from girls simply walking down the hallway next to Luke, or any of the boys actually. I can't lie and say that I'm not slightly excited to see how many I get now.

Luke sighed, "get used to it Char. That's what happens when you're with a stud like me."

Michael and Hannah both gagged, Calum scoffed and Ashton said "tea," carrying out the "a" for way too long.

"Alright that's enough," Michael slammed his hand on the table. "I want my Ashton back and I want him now."

"I'm right here!" Ash cried.

"Wrong!" Michael pointed a finger in his face. "You're Ashley. The fourteen year old girl who's taken over Ashton's body and made him start saying shit like "tea" and "uncle snapped" or whatever."

"Sister snapped," Luke corrected. Oh God I never want to hear Luke say that ever again.

Michael waved him off and continued, "Ashton, enough is enough. You need help."

If anyone else heard our conversation they'd think that we're absolutely insane. Which to be fair, we really were.

"God I need a shot," Hannah sighed running her hands through her long hair.

"Preach."

"Shut up Calum."
