Play With Your Heart Strings (Re writting from Chapter 7)

Chapter 2

Can't I just lie on my bed and listen to music in peace? Is that too much to ask!

I answer the door. "What do you want?" I sigh, looking at Ash standing in front of my door.

"Me and the boys are going to the bar, do you wanna come?" He asks, an innocent smile on his face.

Thank god it's Friday!

"Sure." I say, throwing my iPod on the bed and walking out.

"Aren't you gonna like get ready or something, do what all chicks do and say you'll only take a minute but then you take an hour and then you don't even look that good." I frown.

"No, but I will if you want me to." I say turning around to my room.

"No, no, no, no, no!" Ash says, grabbing my arm. "You're beautiful without makeup."

"Awkward." I say, walking down the stairs. I sense Ash smiling as he follows me. The boys are waiting at the front door.

"Let's go!"  Ben says, opening the door.

The bar is a total man hole. And it's stinks. We sit sown at the bench and the bartender gives us all beers.

"First ones on the house." He says and winks at me.

"Ewe." I whisper, under my breath when he turns around. "Can you try mine, just in case it's been ruffied?" I ask  Rick. He just laughs and takes a sip out of his own glass. I take a deep breath and do the same with my beer. It tastes surprisingly good.

1 GLASS, 2 GLASSES, 3 GLASSES, 4. I'm going to regret this in the morning. As we stumble up the front path, laughing our asses off, we are greeted at the front door by Carmen.

"Oh crap." Ash whispers under his breath. I laugh under my breath but then shush him.

"Do you know what time it is? 3.am! Your curfew on Fridays is 1.am! you're two hours late! I trusted you guys to come back on time! What have you got to say for your selves?" Ash points a finger at her.

"Would you like a root mum? Because I know a guy who knows a guy who... I'm confused." He asks. Carmen looks shocked but we all crack up laughing. (Except for her of course.) Carmen sighs.

"Go inside, all of you, you're drunk." We a stumble inside, laughing at Ash's really stupid joke. I tumble into my bedroom and face plant onto my bed. But suddenly need to get up again, due to my stomach churning. I sprint into the bathroom and vomit up about half my stomach content, I am soon joined by Ash who does the same thing. We both take a seat on the bathroom floor, leaning against the wall.

"So.... This is awkward." Ash says, staring out the window.

"Yep." I reply also looking out the window. "That window is really disturbing, I mean, I could be taking a dump and someone could just walk on by and peer in and see me." I laugh a little. "Ew, as if you would bring that up!" I say, standing up.

"Where are you going?" He asks, reaching for my arm.

"To bed." I reply, "Before I re-vomit up the rest of my stomach content."

"But if you go to bed, the hangover will come to you quicker." Ash says, practically begging me to stay.

"Get it over and done with." I reply, waltzing out of the bathroom. I fall onto my bed and drift off.

My eyes flutter open and Damon is standing over my with a camera.

"Say cheese!" He says, the light flashing in my eyes. He runs out of the room.

"GET BACK HERE! GIVE ME THE CAMERA! GIVE ME BACK THE GOD DAMN CAMERA!" I scream as we run through the kitchen.

"Yoink.!" Ash says as he snatches the camera off Damon.

"Thank you Ash! Now can I please have the camera?" I say my arm out stretched to him.

"Say the magic words first." He says, holding the camera above his head.

"I would if I knew the bloody magic words." I say as calmly as possible.

"The magic words are, 'Ash, you are the sexiest man alive, and if you give me the camera I will please you how ever you want me to."'

"I'm not saying that!" I scream at him.

"Give that to me." Carmen says, yanking the camera out of Ash's hand. "I think I might look through these tonight and see if they are appropriated." She says, walking up to her room.

"Shit!" Damon says under his breath. I walk over to him and pinch his cheeks. "What? Is mummy going to see your pictures and delete them so that you will never see them again? Naw, poor little Damy wamey!" I say in my baby voice. Damon swats me off and walks away all grumpy.

"You know, you could have just said the magic words, you would of gotten your camera back then." Ash say, leaning on the wall behind him.

"I will never say those words, any way, I'm sure your plastic girlfriend will, if you ask her nicely."

"Her names Claudia and she's not my girlfriend."

"No, but if she gets her way you will be." I say, walking out of the kitchen. "And girls like her usually do, especially girls that ram their tongues down guys throats."
