Take Me As I Am (Completed)

Chapter Eight

Chapter Eight:

"You didn't get voted off?" Nick sounded surprised.

"Nope. Apparently they like sassy girls who aren't exactly fans of theirs," I sighed.

"I'm going to laugh so badly if you win," Nick said and I heard a female voice murmur something in the background.

"Don't jinx it. I don't want that to happen. Who you with?" I cradled my cell phone in my ear as I folded my laundry. Since I had only packed for a week, my limited supply of t-shirts and shorts were running out.

"Ashley," He replied. 

The name seemed familiar, but I couldn't put a finger on who it was. Knowing Nick, it was probably a blonde with long legs.

"Flavor of the week?" I teased him and I heard him snort.

"It's a wonder you have any friends," I could hear him grinding his teeth, a bad habit he'd had since I could remember.

"True, I'm a sassy brat," I laughed. I heard my door swing open and Trinity popped her head in.

"We're doing a campfire tonight, apparently." She informed me and plopped down on my bed.

After she was all settled on my bed, she finally noticed that I happened to be on the phone.

"Talking to your secret lover that no one knows about? Is he insanely jealous that Harry and Niall have taken a liking to you?"

"What even, Trin?" I stuck my tongue out at her.

"Who's that? She sounds pretty. Is she pretty? Ow! Ashley, that hurt!" Nick yelped and I could picture him holding whatever Ashley hit and whimpering like a child.

"Trinity's out of your league, Nick. Trust me, she's gorgeous," I stated as Trinity gave me an interested look.

"Rude. Hey, I gotta go. Miss you, Grate. Caleb, Devin and the crew do too. Caleb even said he missed you so much, he might take you to prom," I heard Nick snicker. 

"Miss you too, Johnson. And no, I'm not going. Plus we have like seven months before prom, dummy." 

"Whatever, talk to you later, Al."
