The dinner was a funny mess.
Our Parents got drunk off of Champagne and started to talk about their "Younger Days".
Easton and Asher got into a heated argument about Batman vs. Captain America.
Stella and I were gossiping about stupid rumors that happened throughout the school year, but we were tipsy so it kinda of sounded like we were whining about them.
Easton and Asher had to carry Stella and I home since we could barely stand up.
In actuality we probably looked hilarious while we were leaving the restaurant.
But within our circle, you can tell that the boys were frustrated because they had to take care of four drunk girls.
"Remind me never to drink again" I say as I wake up the next morning with hangover. He turns his head away from the television and looks at my exhausted facial expression with a frown.
"I told you not to drink the champagne" he says with a shrug before he gets up and walking into his bathroom
"I didn't think it would be that strong" I say as he walks out of his bathroom with a bottle of pain killers. He smiles at me before picking me up bridal style which makes me squeak and cling onto him.
He walks out of his room and down the stairs as I squeeze my eyes shut since every step he takes makes me feel a pounding in my head. When he finally reaches the last step, he walks in the direction of the kitchen and places me on the countertop.
"What would you like to drink?" He asks as he stands in between my legs and places his hands on my knees
"Apple juice" I say with a pout since I'm weirdly craving it
He smiles at me before he places a kiss my forehead and walks towards the refrigerator.
He comes back to his previous position while holding a glass of apple juice and two pain reliever tablets. I accept them and place the pills in my mouth before using the apple juice to swallow them.
I set the empty glass down beside my hip before I lean forward and wrap my arms around his neck and lay my head on his shoulder.
"Are you okay?" He asks with a small chuckle as he wraps his arms around my waist
"Yeah," I say as I just hold him tightly, as if he would fade away
"I love you" I say as my voice cracks which causes him to tighten his hold on me before he places a kiss on my neck
"I love you too" he says as he starts to rub my back soothingly.
Our moment was ruined by Stella walking into the kitchen while groaning.
"You look like you came from the walking dead" Easton says as he continues to hold me but looks directly at Stella
I lift my head and look behind me. She looked tired and you could tell that she was hungover.
"And you look like you came from Barney, but I didn't say anything" she says to him with a glare which makes me laugh
"What does that even mean?" He asks before I jump off the counter and wrap my arms around his waist
"You're a dinosaur from my nightmares" she says with an eye roll as she walks to the refrigerator and pulls out a water bottle. He rolls his eyes as I stifle a laugh.
"Can you both shut up, it's too early in the morning for you to be this loud" Mrs. Hayes says as she walks into the kitchen while rubbing her temples
"Um, Mrs. Hayes, It's one in the afternoon" I say which makes her eyes widen as she turns to Easton and gives him a stern look
She looks like she's scolding him with her eyes.
"Um, I have to go meet up with some people, so I'm going to go get dressed" he says when his mom gives him a murderous glare
"Do you want me to go with you?" I ask him as I grab his forearm when he goes to walk away. He turns to me and smiles before kissing my forehead.
"No, I'll be okay" he says with a reassuring smile before he goes upstairs. As soon as we hear his door close his mom claps her hands together with excitement.
"Amelia, I'm taking you shopping today" Mrs. Hayes says with a big smile on her face, I look at her with a confused expression before I turn to Stella who has an excited facial expression
Um, okay?
"Why?" I ask but neither of their expressions falter
"It's a surprise" they say simultaneously
"Okay, when are we leaving?" I ask since I'm starving
"After you get dressed" Stella says before she grabs my wrist and drags me upstairs towards her room. I look around and see that she has random textbooks on her floor but I don't see Asher.
I thought I saw him come in here with her last night.
"Where's Asher?" I ask as I sit on the corner of the bed
If he was here, there's no telling what they've done on this bed.
"He left after I woke up early this morning" she says with a shrug as she tries to find an outfit for me to wear
I really need to bring more clothes over here.
"Oh" I say before she throws a pair of shorts and a tank top at me. I roll my eyes before I walk into her bathroom so that I can take a shower.
I hope they don't make me shop all day.
I can only handle looking at clothes for so long until I lose it.
"We've been shopping for an hour. Can I eat now?" I ask in an overdramatic groan as I throw my head back in agony"The food court is on the other side of the mall. Can you hold out for a couple more minutes?" Stella says as she holds up a long red dress"I don't want to pass out from starvation inside of a dress shop" I say as I groan in annoyance"I'll go buy you something from the food court while you find a dress" Mrs. Hayes says to me with a smile before she walks out of the store"Thank you" I say before she walks out.Stella continues to look at random dresses, some long, some short."Oh my God" She suddenly gasps out which causes me to turn around and look at her, she has a wide smile on her face and her eyes are shining.I look at the dress and gasp.It's a short white dress with spaghetti straps. The first layer is an opaque white while the top layer is a sheer white. There's also a silver belt attached to the middle of the dress. It looks cute, but comfortable."You need to
I wish I knew where we were going so that I could be as excited as she is.-"Where are we?" I ask Stella as she pulls into an empty parking lot, I look up at the large white building and stare at it in confusion.It looks empty."When you walk inside, take the elevator up onto the roof" she says before she unlocks the car door.As soon as I step out of the car, she drives away which makes me look at her car in confusion since I can't see her.I swear, if I get killed or kidnapped here I'm going to be royally pissed at her.I slowly make my way towards the building before I pull open the large glass doors.I expected it to be locked.I walk around the dimly lit lobby in search of anyone, but I soon find out that it's void of anybody.I walk towards the elevator and press the top button before waiting for the doors to open. I jump back a little when I see a middle aged man in a black and white suit that has a cloth balanced on his wrist standing in the corner of the elevator.A Butler?
2 years laterThe past two years have been crazy.Easton and I ended up going to the same college since he was paranoid about random boys trying to make a move on me.We both moved into an apartment that's not far from campus so that we could just walk to school.Stella and Asher got married after our freshman year of college because they "couldn't wait any longer".I was a bridesmaid while Easton was the best man.Their wedding was at the beach so there was a lot of sweating, even though we were practically in our bathing suit cover ups.When it was time to leave I found Easton playing a game of peekaboo with my baby cousin which made my heart melt.I never knew he was so good with kids.A month later, Easton proposed to me while we were at Disneyland with my parents.He claims that he didn't plan it but I kind of feel like he did.Lastly, for the final week of summer, Easton and I chose to have a road trip from Pennsylvania all the way to Los Angeles.I pretty much slept the whole d
6 Years Later"Mommy, Where do babies come from?" My four year old daughter asksShit.I thought I had a couple more years to prepare for this question.I place the knife down that I was using to cut open a package of meat and turn around so that I'm facing the innocent four year old.She has my long brown hair, but she has Easton's grey eyes.This little bundle of joy is Katie Marie Hayes.After Easton and I graduated, we got married a month later.She was created that night.Plus after that night I craved a lot of ketchup, to the point where Easton was concerned that our baby would end up looking like a tomato but his love for me never faltered.Nine months later I got to hold her in my arms for the first time while Easton cried in the seat next to me from happiness and shock.When he finally stopped crying enough to be able to hold her, he was mesmerized.That same night Mrs. Hayes, Stella and Asher stopped by so that they could meet her.Mrs. Hayes cried and hugged me while congra
"Hey Amelia" I heard someone yell my name across the hallI turn my head away from organizing my locker as I see my best friend Stella running towards me and pushing people out of her way"Stella" I yell back and start running towards her as we both meet in a tight hug.Stella and I have been friends ever since I fell off the monkey bars at our elementary school and she helped me up. She was the only person that didn't laugh at me."Omg I haven't seen you in forever" Stella exclaimed as she clinged onto me for dear life"I know. We need to hang out after school" I say as I cling onto her with as much strength that she is"You guys saw each other yesterday," Easton says walking up to us since we caused a little crowd around us"And talked on the phone all night" he say putting the emphasis on the word 'and'.Easton Hayes. If you haven't figured it out Easton is Stella's twin brother. No, they aren't identical but they both have similarities. For example their black hair, grey eyes with
"Okay so all of you obviously wanna be cheerleaders," Emma says as she yells at all of us girls on the bleachers waiting to tryout"But sadly only three of you girls will make it, So do your best" she says, back to her overly excited attitude, then going behind the small foldaway table with her co-cheer captain.She called girls to tryout in alphabetical order"Amelia" she calls my name after six other girls. I make my way off the bleachers and towards the front of the table"Whenever you're ready" Emma says then smiles at me, I nodded and took a deep breath trying to relax then I started my routine.When I finished my routine I was breathing very heavily to try and catch my breath but, that didn't last long before I was tackled by the cheer squad, all of them had very excited faces"Omg that was the best routine I've seen in my 3 years at this school" Emma shout excitedly in my face as the rest of the cheer squad happily agreesI smile weakly at all their compliments since I'm still
"Hey, I was starting to think you were gonna stand me up" he jokingly says as he sees me walk around the corner and walk towards him, I laugh at him"now why would I do that?" I ask him as I stop in front of him with a smile on my face"I don't know you tell me miss busy schedule" he teases me as he wraps his arms loosely around my waist and pulls me a little closer towards him"Speaking of which, I currently have somewhere else I need to be" I say as I loosely wrap my arms around his neck"Well then, we wouldn't wanna waste anymore of your precious time, would we?" He says as he leans his forehead on mine"Okay, you win" I say laughing at him as I move a little away from him because the intoxicating scent of his cologne is making me wanna do unholy things to him"At what?" He ask suddenly serious and staring deeply into my blue eyes"Our flirting battle?" I say but it comes out as more of a question as he steps forward and connects our foreheads again but this time I don't pull away
"Great, he isn't home yet" Stella says excitedly as she unlocks the door and is met with silenceWe slip inside and head upstairs towards her bedroom, I flop on her bed as she goes back downstairs after throwing her backpack in a cornerI just assumed she was getting snacks so I go onto my phone as I wait for Stella to arrive back to her room with no doubt a bunch of snacks.I get a text message, as I'm scrolling through Instagram, from EastonEaston- You seemed tense when I was talking to you. Is everything alright?Amelia- Yeah, everything is fineI text him hoping that he won't ask about it anymore"Bitch, I got the good stuff" Stella shouts as she walks in with gummy candy, chocolate, popcorn, a pack of cupcakes, giant bags of chips, donuts and nutella"Stella, you do realize that we're also ordering pizza and bread sticks right?" I ask her as she put all the food down in the middle of the bed"Yeah you're right," she says like it just dawned on her"Thank-" I start to say but she
