Ashton's POV
I pulled up in front of the police station before getting out of the car and walking up the steps to the sliding doors.
"Can I help you?" a young lady in a police uniform asked me, eyeing me up and down. I knew I didn't fit in but she could at least be discreet, jeez.
"I'm here to collect my friends"
"I see, wait here"
She spoke to a colleague who then called me over to the cells.
"Tell me which one of 'em are yours" the man said, opening a door.
"'Kay"
He raised an eyebrow at me.
"Yes sir" I responded gruffly.
As we walked through the dark corridor I looked carefully into the cells, dark emotionless faces stared back at me. Most were probably drunk party animals abandoned by their friends after a long night, others thieves caught at the wrong place at the wrong time..... or in my case, a crying teenage girl and a pissed off guy.
"Ashton!" Amelia screeched.
"Thank. God." Luke responded with his head in his hands, "I swear I almost killed myself with her in here"
I laughed, "I should've taken longer, eh?"
"No no no, just get me out of here"
"I take it these are yours?"
"Yes sir"
"Alright, I'll need ID for proof that you are indeed over 18"
From the corner of my eye I could see Amelia's eyes widening with worry, "Of course, here it is" I reached into my back pocket.
The police officer examined it, checking that the number was official.
"Ah you're Australian, why the big move?"
Luke and I exchanged looks, "My dad got a promotion"
"I see, now you two" he pointed at Luke and Amelia, "Stay out of trouble"
"Yes officer, I'm so sorry, I promise it will never happen again" Amelia chirped.
"Don't worry Miss Chamberlain, we know you, it's alright"
"Thank you sir"
I rolled my eyes and walked towards my car.
"Shotgun" Luke grinned, getting in.
"Are you coming in or what?" I turned towards Amelia who stood with her arms crossed outside the door.
"Ugh, some gentlemen you are" she said after a long pause, getting into the car and putting on her seatbelt, "You're supposed to open the door for the girl" she stated, "And you're supposed to offer her the front seat but let's not get ahead of ourselves"
"Please Amelia; I've heard enough of your whining for one night, that prison cell was hell" Luke moaned.
"Oh, I'm sorry, sorry that I got arrested by the police and placed in a prison cell with you of all people!" she exclaimed, "And Ashton you can cross 'racing the streets at midnight' off your stupid list, I've done it"
"Yeah dude, you should've seen her run, it was hilarious" Luke laughed but stopped at the sight of Amelia's death stare.
"Whatever, Amelia are you and your friends going to Beckett's party Friday after school?"
"Maybe, why?"
I gave Luke a cunning look.
"No reason, I just thought we could wear odd shoes and dye your hair as part of our bucket list assignment"
