I knew I shouldn't have waited for him. I look like a moron just standing near the water fountain. I had to pretend I was drinking water when people passed by. Do you know how humiliating that is? I'm technically just adding more to my embarrassing life and Olivia will bully me later. I'm sure of it. Ugh my life. How do I even have friends?

Lost in my own thoughts I didn't notice Ashton walking towards me.

"Hey there princess Maggie," he said. "Or should I say princess clumsy?"

"Ha ha very funny," I deadpanned.

"I know, my jokes are the best," he said with a smug face.

Rolling my eyes I asked, " What do you want? why'd you ask for me to wait here?"

"Because you and I are having an adventure," he said.

Oh god. My eyes widened in horror. This can't be good. An adventure. You hear that? An adventure. Oh my sweet baby Jesus just kill me know.

"Um, uh, yeah, no," I sated. "I'm not going anywhere with you. The only reason i'm here is because Alexa basically threatened me."

"And a good thing she did don't you think?"

"No its not a good thing!" I yelled out frustrated.

There was something about him that made me lose my temper easily.

I heard footsteps behind Ashton. Angling my face so I could see over his shoulder, I noticed it was Jason. Mason's best friend. He's good looking if you like the square jaw and man bun type.

"Now we can go," Ashton said.

"Go? Go where? Where are you taking me," I demanded.

He shrugged his shoulders," You'll see," he said.

--------------------------

"Annnnnd were here," Ashton said, parking the car.

It was a park. A park. Whats so special about a park little kids run around and probably pee on?

"Uhhhh...." Was all I said.

"It may look a little weird but come on," Jason encouraged me.

Opening the car door, I stepped outside.

"We come here just to play around. Take out some stress," Ashton said taking out some beers from the trunk.

"And you my friend, are the chosen one," Jason finished with a gleam in his eyes, leaving me more confused than ever. 

" Take out some stress? Chosen one?" I muttered; my eyebrows furrowed.

"That's right my friend, The chosen one," Jason said, a huge creepy smile on his face now.

" What are you talking about? And what's up with you calling me 'My friend'?" I asked. The gleam and smile suddenly depleted from his face.

He just gave me a stare.

'What' my stare told him back.

He shook his head.

" A couple years back, Jason and I had  made an agreement," Ashton explained.

" The agreement consisted of something really simple."

"If any girl ever dared talk back to me without holding and invitation on her voice, or flirting we would bring her here,"  he said.

"Go on," I said. Making movements with my hands like- get - on - with -it.

"It meant she would be our girl. The one we would protect. The one that will be our friend," Jason said.

" And that girl is you. You're the chosen one. Would you accept our kind offer Princes Maggie?" Ashton said.

" Would you let us protect you?" They said in unison.

They waited a couple of seconds quietly, the tension and suspense building.

I honestly don't know what to say. But then suddenly something occurred to me.

"You guys do know I have friends right? I can't just leave them,"  I said.

"You have friends? Wait, I thought you were new?" Jason pointed out.

"OK, now that's just mean," I said.

"And no, I have been attending the same highschool since freshmen year," I said.

"Well whatever. The point is we want you to be our friend. Meaning, your friends are now our friends," Ashton
said.

" Starting tomorrow, you and your friends will save Jason and I a spot on your table and well let the whole world know that now, you are ours," he said.

" You know i'm not a toy right?" I pointed out.

"And she just killed the mood again. Do you always do this? I guess we gotta get used to it," he said.

" I guess i now have to tell Alexa and the twins," I said.

Alexa will be so excited. The twins already talk with them so I don't see a problem there.

Taking a swig of his beer Ashton said," Text them to meet us here. We will tell them. A new start a new friendship."

And in a whisper so low I almost didn't catch it, he said "I hope it lasts"
