Celeste's POV:
Once I woke up Asher was gone. Even though I knew he was leaving, it still made me feel a little bit sad.
I wish I could wake up with him every morning.We were gonna go to the beach today, like he promised. Once I fully woke up I realised it was a stupid idea to agree to it, because I'd have to wear a swimsuit.
I didn't want Asher to see that much of my body, he might change his mind about what he said last night.So I just decide on some shorts, a basic t-shirt and my vans.
Celeste's outfit:
"Are you doing anything interesting today, princess?" My dad asked me as he gave me my usual breakfast, then took a seat beside me.
"Asher said he'd take me to the beach today, he's gonna pick me up soon."
Ambrose scoffed and shook his head as he continued to scroll through his phone. I frowned.
He was still upset with me, and we haven't spoken much. When we did, it didn't go very well.My dad looked towards Ambrose and sighed.
"It's you're birthday next Saturday, have you decided what you wanna do and what you want?"
Thank god my dad knew how to change the subject.
I hummed as I thought.
"A barbecue."Honestly it was the first thing on my mind. Plus, everyone like barbecues, right?
My dad raised his eyebrow.
"You want a barbecue party?" He repeated slowly and I nodded enthusiastically."Mhm and I want Toni, Carter, Wes, Nate, Mateo, Elijah and Asher to be there."
I heard Ambrose mumble something under his breath but didn't care to hear him elaborate. It was probably mean.
"Right... and what about your presents?"
"I just want the barbecue... and everyone to be here of course." I shrugged.
He looked at me like I'd lost my mind.
"But, what about a car? You've been going on about how you want to drive for years now!"
