Other Way Around

"Come on Cortney" Ashton says to me annoyed, "you're gonna make me late for the signing."

"I'm coming jeez" I reply.

Ashton and I are best friends, we've known each other since grade school. He's taking me to a signing today with the rest of his band 5 Seconds Of Summer, then we are going to a party later. I'm more excited for the party, that's why I'm taking so long to get ready.

I finished getting ready and I stuffed my party dress into a bag to change into later then headed down the stairs. Ashton was waiting for me at the bottom in jeans and a tshirt, pacing.

"Finally!" He exaggerates.

"Please, I didn't take that long" I say, sticking my tounge out at him.

"Sure" he says rolling his eyes at me. He extends his hand and I take it, it doesn't mean anything to either of us, it's a friend thing.

The drive to the signing wasn't long, maybe 10 minutes and we made it with time to spare. I got out of the car and immediately spotted Luke. Our eyes locked and he smiled, but he lost it when Ashton grabbed my hand.

"Hey Luke" I say and wink at him. We always tease each other, it's like a game.

"Hi Cortney" he says and opens his arms for a hug. I let go of Ashton's hand and hug him, but then he tightens his grip and picks me up.

"Luke! Put me down!" I yell as he slings me over his shoulder.

"Make me" he chuckles.

An idea crawls into my mind and I I scantly act on it, lightly smacking his ass.

"Hey what was that" he says dropping me to the ground in the process.

"Me making you" I reply, getting off the ground with help from Ashton.

"Honey, that should have been the other way around" he says with a smirk and walking away from me into the signing venue.

What the hell does that mean?! I thought to myself, but brushed it off when I realized he was just reason me. I followed them in and stood behind the table as they greeted the fans. It went by faster than expected and soon I was in the bathroom changing for the party.

I was wearing a short black dress with a simple pair of heels to match. When I walked out Ashton's naw dropped.

"Well don't you look beautiful" he said.

"Thanks" I reply, eyeing him up, he changed his tshirt into a button down and looked pretty nice.

"Ready to go?" He asks.

"Yeah, let's do this" I say, and we head towards the party.
