"hey losers wakey wakey" john b said throwing a pillow at the two tangled in each other's arms.

"shut up" jj said with a deep husky morning voice. caroline just gave him the finger.
"now that's not very nice, now is it?" john b scoffed. they didn't reply and were about to fall asleep again.
"hey! i'm serious! wake the fuck up! it's 1 o'clock for fucks sake!" he yelled.
"what?" caroline jumped up and basically ran to gather her things.
"dude what? you can't leave, we've got things to do. places to be." john b complained.
"well i'm going to get my ass beat!" she said putting her shoes on.
"why?"
"because my parents needed to take me somewhere 20 minutes ago! they said it was really important." she said.
"meet back here if you can! remember, we've got plans later tonight!"
"how should i dress for the occasion?" she said in a British accent.
"i'll text you my love." john b shouted as she ran to her car and drove off.

john b felt something hit the back of his head and turned around to see jj laying on the bed.
"she's mine." jj spoke sternly.

caroline rushed into her house and called out to her dad.
"i'm so so so sorry dad! i lost track of time and didn't wake up." she said running into his office knowing he would be there.
"i really don't want your excuses caroline. go freshen up, and wear something nice! we have to leave to 15 minutes." he said obviously angry that the girl didn't listen to him.
"ok, sorry!" she called out, sprinting up the stairs.

she reached her room and basically threw her clothes off and got into the freezing cold shower. she did her normal routine and got out. she ran to her closet. her father said wear something nice so she picked out this.

she tied her shoes and ran out her bedroom door

she tied her shoes and ran out her bedroom door.
"caroline! let's go!" she heard her father shout.
she ran out the door and got into the back of her fathers Range Rover.
"i wanted you to dress nicer caroline. you've been hanging out with those pogues to damn long. starting to dress like a slob." jennifer said.
she just rolled her eyes, caroline never said anything bad about jennifer while both of them were in the same room.
"where are we going?" caroline finally asked.
"caroline, there is a ball going to be held in two weeks and you were invited. you get to pick your escort but i must approve of him first. we are going to look at dresses and then we are going out to dinner, as a family."
"what?" she was shook. a ball. no way. no effing way. she was not going to a ball.
"caroline." her father said.
"why do i have to go?"
"because caroline, this is a big deal. and i never make you do any kook things but this, this you must do. i'm not asking."
"dad..."
"no caroline." he said sternly. he sounded mad and caroline didn't want to make him yell so she said "ok but you said i get to pick my escort right?"
"yes but i have to approve."
"well, i pick jj."
he just paused. "caroline. this is a kook event. are you sure you want to bring him." he said.
"yes daddy, he's my boyfriend."
"he still hasnt come over to our house yet."
"he will! i swear. tomorrow night!"
"ok fine. being jj."

"jason. are you serious? i thought we agreed." jennifer said in a bad whisper.
"we will talk later."

as the car pulled up to a fancy dress shop the three got out of the car and headed inside.
"hello, how can i help you today?" the staff member asked.
"we need to look at dresses." jason said.
"yes, for the ball i assume. right this way." he said leading us into a room
"what are you looking for?" he asked caroline.
"um i'm not really sure. can you pick out dresses that you think would look good?" she asked.
"of course. i'll be right back."
