5SOS - BABYSAT BY IDIOTS

Chapter 101

After texting Faith, it was 4:31 and I decided to watch some TV. Soon enough, Luke and Ashton came downstairs and said, "Hey, Nicole. Whatcha' watching?" Well they didn't both say that. Not at the same time. Luke said 'Hey, Nicole' and Ash said 'Whatcha' watching'. I responded to them, "I'm watching 19 Kids And Counting."

Luke: Ooh, that's an interesting show.

Nicole: I know, right?

Ashton: Hey, I'm bored. Theres nothing to do. Nicole, find me something to do.

Nicole: Excuse me? How am I supposed to find you something to do?

Ashton: I don't know. You live an exciting life.

Nicole: No, no, no. I have no life.

Luke: Sure you do, Nicole. You have a life.

Nicole: Really? Doing what?

Luke: Well you don't exactly need to do something to have a life.

Nicole: I don't?

Luke: No. You just have to make sure you don't do one specific thing that's gonna take you nowhere in life.

Nicole: ...

Luke: ...

Nicole: Yeah, I have no life.

Luke: Really? What specific thing do you do?

Nicole: I text. Or maybe it's watching TV. I don't know.

Luke: Well at this age, I don't think you should be worrying about having a life. Maybe when you're 13.

Nicole: Okay.

Ashton: Hey, have any of you guys seen my drumsticks anywhere?

Luke: No, where did you last have them?

Ashton: I had them in my room, doofus, where else would I have them?

Nicole: (laughs) Wow. Harsh.

Ashton: Sorry, I just really need to find them.

Nicole: Hey, why don't I ever hear you playing your drums?

Ashton: Because I have the only room in the house that's soundproof.

Nicole: Oh, cool. Well anyway, we'll help you find your drumsticks.

Luke: We will?

Nicole: Yes. We will, Luke.

Ashton: Awesome, guys. Thanks.

Nicole: No problem.

Ashton: (goes into kitchen)

Luke: Do I have to help?

Nicole: Yes. Be nice for once.

Luke: For once?

Nicole: I'm kidding. You know what? If you don't wanna help find Ashton's drumsticks, that's fine. Leave me to look for them. A 12 year old little girl can do it on her own.

Luke: Great! I knew you'd understand! (walks away)

Wow... He is really stupid. Anyway, I went to Ashton's room and looked all over. I looked in between his drum set and found it. Shocking Ashton didn't. Anyway, I was about to go downstairs to give them to him but I dropped one of the sticks. No biggie. But then as I was about to pick the stick up, I didn't notice my foot was on it and I pulled the stick. Then it broke. OH MY GOD! What did I just do?! Well you just broke the stick, Nicole! What do you think?! Ooh, what am I gonna do? Should I just tell Ashton, or should I keep it a secret? I was thinking about it before Luke came in and said, "Hey, Nicole. As I left you, I had just noticed the sense of sarcasm in your voice and -- OH MY GOSH, WHAT DID YOU DO?!?"

Nicole: SHHHH! It was an accident! I found it in between the drums on his drum set and then when I picked it up I dropped it and then I didn't notice my foot on it and I pulled it and it just broke.

Luke: Okay, uh, just calm down. I think Ash will understand if you just tell him the truth.

Nicole: Will he?

Luke: Of course he will. I mean, I don't think he's that mean.

Nicole: Okay then...
