I pull up into my driveway just as Dad and Elise are packing into their limo.

"Dad wait!" I call out. He pops his head out of the limo and runs up to me, crashing me into a hug.

"I'm glad you got here when you did. We were just about to leave."

"I know. I love you."

"Love you too kiddo. I hope to be back before the Grammy's but no promises." I let go of him knowing he has to leave now.

"Okay. See you soon." I walk back to the limo. Standing awkwardly next to him is Elise. I can tell she doesn't know whether she should hug me or not.

I go up to her and embrace her. "Bye Elise."

"Bye Ashley. Thanks for sharing your dad with me." I let out a laugh.

"No problem." She let's go and hops into the limo. I watch as they drive away, wiping a stray tear off my cheek.

I curl my last strand of hair as I hear a knock on my bedroom door.

"Come in!" I call. Nina shows up at my bathroom door. "Hey what's up?"

"We have a very upset Quinn waiting downstairs." She says. I let out a laugh, knowing exactly why she's upset.

"You can let her up Nina, thanks." She nods and heads back out of my room. Less than three seconds later a very upset Quinn shows up at my threshold.

"What kind of best friend are you?" She practically yells at me.

"Well I-" She shushes me with a wave of her hand.

"You have a date tonight with friggin Ryan Mellow! And you didn't tell me! I had to find out from Yasmine. How could you?" She asks in a menacing voice. It's not very often I have say I'm afraid of Quinn, but this is defiantly one of those moments.

"I guess it just slipped my mind." I say lightly. She narrows her eyes and I involuntary take a step back.

"Tell. Me. The. Truth." She spits out.

"I was just not wanting to because I knew you would freak out because you were pushing for Drew and I and it's just a friend thing and I don't even like him like that and yeah." I say in one breath. She keeps her eyes narrowed but slowly let's them widen.

"Your forgiven. But mark my words if this happens again you will be hung." I know she's kidding but I can't help but make a mental note to hide all rope like things in my house. "Come on now. You have a date to get to."

"Quinn, Ryan and I agreed it's just as friends."

"Uh huh." She says mindlessly making her way into my closet. She reamerges with a gray dress that I probebly wore once. It's high in the front in the chest area and practically shows off my entire back with it being tied.
