5SOS - BABYSAT BY IDIOTS

Chapter 5

When I realized Luke didn't notice I broke his guitar, I decided to go relax. I went into the living room just to be shocked to see Luke there watching TV. "Oh, hey, Nicole," he said as he noticed me. I said hi back and then sat on the couch with him.

Luke: I might have to go to the store soon because I need to buy more strings for my guitar.

Nicole: Oh, your strings broke?

Luke: Yeah, just one of them.

Nicole: Oh, that's not good. How'd it break?

Luke: I don't know. I went to my closet and saw I only had 5 strings.

Nicole: Wow.

Luke: Yeah, wow. I have no idea how it even broke but I think it was Ashton.

Nicole: What? What makes you think that?

Luke: Well I remember before Ashton left, he asked if he could barrow some of my studying books from my room and I let him. He must've took my guitar and broke it then.

Nicole: Uh, well... um, are--are you sure about that?

Luke: Pretty sure. Why?

Nicole: No reason. It was probably Ash.

Luke: Exactly. Anyway, I gotta go now. I just texted Ashton and he should come here soon but he's coming with Calum. (stands up and leaves house)

When Luke left, I felt relieved. Finally, its over! Now, I'm gonna do whatever I want. Maybe I'll invite Bernie over. Bernie is one of my other best friends but Jessica hates her. Bernie's real name is Veronica but she got her nickname when I was trying to type her name while texting her but it autocorrected to Bernie and I accidentally sent it. And since then, her name was Bernie. Anyway, we don't have group chats at all because we all need to like each other. I like Jessica and Bernie but Bernie doesn't like Jessica and Jessica doesn't like Bernie and Bernie likes me and so does Jessica. Complicated, right? Whatever. Anyway, I'm gonna text Bernie right now. She answers my texts right away too.

Nicole: heyyyyy Bernie!

Bernie: Hey whats up

Nicole: Not much u?

Bernie: I just saw Jessica at the dentist

Nicole: u did? Jessica recently texted me and told me she was goin 2 the dentist

Bernie: cool

Nicole: why don't u like Jessica?

Bernie: because she is mean 2 me and she hates me

Nicole: well maybe if u were nice 2 her shed like u

Bernie: but I don't really want her 2 like me

Nicole: oh well I can't make her like u and I can't make u like her

Bernie: it's ok so whatcha doing right now?

Nicole: I was watching TV

Just as Bernie was about to text me, I saw the door open and there stood 2 boys, Ashton and I'm guessing Calum. Calum waved to me and I waved back. "Yo, Nicole. Whats up?" Ashton asked me. I said, "Not much, you?"

Ashton: Absolutely nothing at all. Here, meet Calum.

Nicole: Hi, Calum.

Calum: Hi, nice to meet you.

Nicole: Likewise.

Ashton: Whatcha' watching?

Nicole: Nothing really. I was just texting my friend.

Ashton: I hope it's not a boy.

Nicole: No, her name is Bernie.

Calum: Really? Sounds like a boy name to me.

Nicole: (laughs) No, I call her Bernie. Her real name is Veronica.

Calum: That makes sense.

Ashton: So if you haven't noticed already, Luke banned us from Just Dance so instead, why don't we do something else?

Nicole: Okay, what do you have in mind?

Ashton: Well I didn't exactly have something in mind. I was just pointing out that we should do something else.

Nicole: (rolls eyes) Dimwit.

Calum: (laughs)

Ashton: Hmph! Now I know how Luke feels.

Nicole: Anyway, why don't we watch a movie?

Calum: Ooh! Do you have The Conjuring?

Nicole: I think we do. We should watch that.

Ashton: Hm, I don't know. Nicole, you might not be the right age for that kind of violence.

Nicole: Come on, Ash! Please!!!! I'm mature!!!!!

When Ashton gave in, soon enough we were in the middle of the movie and I kept on grasping onto Calum's shirt out of terror. Ashton was on the other side of the couch eating all the popcorn. At the end of the movie, my head was shoved into Calum's chest and I could feel him shaking as he was laughing. "Mature, eh?" He asked me, mockingly. I came out from his chest am frowned at him. "Yes, I'm mature," I said back. I then stood up and saw Ashton sleeping. I looked at Calum and Calum looked at me and at the same time, we both said, "Lets prank Ashton." It was funny. Then I grabbed some whipped cream from the kitchen fridge and brought it back to the living room. Calum pulled Ashton's hand out and I put the whipped cream in his hand. Then Calum grabbed his nose and there, the fun began. Ashton sneered whipped cream all over his face. Up his nose, in his mouth, everywhere. I laughed and so did Calum and eventually within 5 seconds (of summer) Ashton woke up and noticed the whipped cream over his face. "WHAT THE--HEY!!!!" Ashton yelled. Calum gave me a high five while we were both hysterically laughing at Ashton. Ashton looked angry.
