Dinner was okay, Aaron just talked about himself and how much he loved me, and when it came to the movie, he was complaining about how he didn't want to watch a chick flick. I wanted to watch the new Jumanji movie, but now he couldn't decide what he wanted to watch. Until after the movie started. So we just ended up leaving, Aaron was tired. But I knew that was his code word for he wanted to go and sleep with someone.

I was lucky that he never forced me into anything. In the beginning, we got close to having sex, but we always stopped because of my age. I was two years younger than him.

Aaron was scared of getting in trouble for sleeping with a minor.

Tomorrow was our senior trip. The school rented out an entire mall, with movie theaters, arcades, and more. I go to a private school, where tuition costs more than a house. I got in on a full scholarship.

I had to sleep and make sure that I was all set to spend the next day with my best friend and boyfriend.

My phone was ringing, but I didn't feel like answering it. It could have been Aaron, my dad, Cova, or anyone, but I didn't feel like talking.

After ten minutes, I decided to see who it was Unknown. The unknown number had called ten times in a row. And here it is again.

"Hello? Who is this?" All I could hear was heavy breathing. "Hello?"

"Ashley Covington?"

"Yes?" how did this person know my name?

"This is Dr. Matthews, and I work alongside with Dr. Martha Williams. She asked me to give you a call and make sure that you are feeling all right."

"I feel fine though it is a little hard to breathe, I always had that problem. So thank you and have a good night." I hung up faster than the flash.

I can't believe she would tell someone.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It was the day of the senior trip, and Aaron came over bright and early we didn't have to be there till eight, and he came over at 6:30. Let's just say I was very annoyed that he woke me up that early.

"Good Morning, baby, how are you feeling?"

"Tired, but then I always am, so there is no difference."

Once Aaron was given full access to my closet to choose my outfit for the day, there was another knock on my front door, followed by the doorbell ringing a bunch of times.

I ran down the stairs to answer the door. It was Cova. "Hey, I thought we were meeting at the school?"

"Is that Aaron's car out front? Why is he here? I thought it was only supposed to be you and I, getting ready for today."

"Aaron thought it would be a good idea to have a choice in my outfit, seeing that he would be there to ensure no one is checking me out."

"Wait, so Aarons coming on the senior trip?" I nodded my head, "Oh, this should be interesting. I may or may not have invited Brady to come with."

My eyes widened at the sound of Brady's name. "You have to tell him not to come. Aaron will start a fight there is no doubt in my mind will it turn out bad." First Aaron was going and now Brady, does nobody care about my well being?

After about an hour of Aaron and Cova fighting over how much skin I should show, they agreed on a teal blue v-neck with a pair of white shorts and to top it off with white and black vans. Aaron was still saying I was showing too much skin, but it was supposed to be around 85 degrees.

Cova was going to wear a light pink tube top with navy shorts and black Nikes.

"Are you guys dressed already? We need to go if we are to make it on time." The senior trip was the same every year, but it had the most amount of virginities lost than anything else. I think that's why Aaron wants to go. We hadn't gone farther than him feeling me up. I am so thankful that he hasn't raped or done anything worse to me.

It took about twenty minutes to arrive at the Diamonds Mall. It was 600,000 square feet, housing more than 400 stores. All of my favorite stores wrapped into one big building. Aaron said something about needing new shoes and walked off angrily in the direction of Foot Locker.

About a minute later, I saw the reason why he ran off Brady had just pulled up. Cova had driven her car to fit all of her shopping bags. Did I mention how much I love Cova's car? It's a 2019 Range Rover, black on black with light and hot pink accents.

"Are you ready to spend so much money that my parents will murder me ten times over? I most certainly am!" Cova's mom was a heart surgeon at a local hospital who made enough money to support ten families, and Cova's dad brought home close to $169,000 a year.

Brady walked right over to Cova's side and smiled at me. "Oh, here you go, Ashley, my parents said to go crazy. No matter how much you spend, they will just add it on to Cova's shopping sprees."

Brady handed me a black Amex. "No, I don't want it, nor do I intend to do any shopping what so ever." I had everything I needed and a little less.

"Just take it, if you want you don't have to use it, but I have to give it to you." He said, walking away when he shoved the card into my hand.

Let's go shopping!" Cova was the type of friend that could make you shop till you dropped.

About three hours later, I had ten bags in my hand. Well, Cova had found some cute guy named Steve to carry her bags. Cova had made Steve make three trips to her car.

Let's just say Cova was racking up quite the amount of debt. "So we still have a couple more stores to go too before we relax by the pool. Where do you want to go first?"

"I want to go to Victoria's Secret. Just don't tell Aaron that we are going, he would freak."

"Agreed. Steve, baby, can you bring the bags to my car. My trunk should be unlocked. Thank you so much!" Cova kissed his cheek like he was ready to jump off a cliff if she told him to.

Steve went off, running to her car. "Well, we all know what you are doing tonight. Let's get going before he finds us."

We started off to Victoria's Secret I went towards the sale items well Cova went over to look at the designer lingerie. After a good ten minutes, I had a large amount of stuff in my bag, while Cova had half the store on hold. "Cova, we have to wrap this up. Before Aaron finds me and sees where I am."

"All right, I just have to get most of this, and then I will be finished." I shake my head, heading to the register.

"Your total is $259.39." I swiped the black Amex, well the associate bagged my purchase. Cova just had to figure out what she needed and wanted to buy.

I waited for the associate to finish ringing up, Cova." Your total is $1,349.49." Cova took out her credit card and swiped. She was the ultimate shopper and spender.
