Ashley's POV
I woke up to the sound of my phone continuously buzzing with text notifications
E: yeah so you'll get the drinks
A: okay
Me: what's going on
Chanel: oh great... Look who finally decided to join us 😒
Me: yeah... So would somebody please fill me in?
Brandon: ....
Me: 😕
Chanel: 😒
Me: okay seriously what's going on? Don't tell me you guys are mad at me ... Come on I was asleep, you can't blame me
A: 😌
Me: ???
A: 😒
Me: wth guys?
E: okay guys I can't keep doing this, we are wasting time
Me: thank you! Now what on Earth is going on
Jake: sorry what's happening? The idiot has my phone and I'm too lazy to scroll up and read
Me: say what?
Jake: Jake has my phone, what's going on
Christy: how the hell does Jake have your phone
Ky: why does he even have it
Jake: we kinda switched phones again and I only noticed right now and Jake has been gone for some time now
Me: so why didn't you just get it before he left?
Jake: I fell asleep 😅
Me: 😂 okay... So guys what's going on
Chanel: I'm coming over to explain everything, gimme a sec
Me: don't jump my fence again😒
Chanel: too late 😝
Me: 😒
A: 😄and I'm on my way to let Aiden know... Though I wish I could jump his fence too🥲
I rolled my eyes at Jake's stupidity just as Chanel burst through my door
"bitch, I'm home!!! " she yelled, jumping on me
"Chanel... (Gasp)... Get.... (Gasp)... Offff" I struggled under her weight, pushing at her shoulders
She finally rolled off me with an eye roll "don't be so dramatic I'm not that heavy"
"you so are... And you have to stop cussing in my house mom will hear you one day" I argued back
"yeah yeah it's not like she's never heard me, we are besties " she waved a dismissive hand to my assumptions
"yeah I know we're besties but--" she cut me off
"I mean your mom and I are besties" she smirked at me when I narrowed my eyes at her
"just fill me in" I decided the topic wasn't going anywhere
"oh yeah... So Em has assigned everyone to do something specific for the bonfire tonight "
"okay and? " I said while wiping my cracked phone screen
"so... Em's bringing chocolate and marshmallows, Tina and Bran are bringing blankets, Jake and Aiden are bringing food and drinks, Justine and Conner are bringing tents then the rest of us are bringing whatever else is necessary " she said then laid back and turned her attention to some show I didn't pay attention to
I hummed in acknowledgment, scrolling through my newsfeed when she broke the silence "are we going together or..." peeking at me from the corner of her eye
I shook my head without sparing her a glance "mom will drop me"
She stood and stretched "oh okay then... I-i have to go get ready then" I could hear the hurt in her voice but I didn't say anything
"okay" I murmured when she reached the glass door
"you're not coming are you? " she hesitated before turning back to face me with a sad smile
"no... I don't think so" I sighed
Chanel's expression fell, but she didn't let it last. Instead, she rubbed her forehead in frustration.
"Come on, Ashley. Last semester, you barely went to any parties—don't tell me you want to do the same thing now. Half our group is graduating soon, going to different universities, moving to different countries. This is all the time we have left, and honestly? It's not much." She gave me a small smile. "Just think about it, okay?" Then she left.
