It was summer in Liverpool, England Patricia Williamson buried her face in her best friend Ashland (but she preferred Ashley or Ash) Stinson's lawn "Delicious," she murmured.
"Why do you smell the grass every summer?" Joy Mercer asked pulling her auburn hair into a ponytail; she was sitting next to her while they were waiting for Amber to come back from field hockey practice.
"It smells good," Patricia brushed away her blue and red-striped reddish-brown hair and breathed in the summer evening air. "Like summer."
Joy looked around waiting for Ashley
A few minutes later Ashley walked onto her lawn. Ashley was wearing an I GET WHAT I WANT gray tank top, a denim mini skirt, black and pink flip-flops, two werewolf necklaces, vampire teeth ring, VAMPIRES EVERYWHERE bracelet, heart shaped peace earrings and her hair golden-blonde curly hair was up in a messy pony-tail, she was obsessed with the Twilight books.
Ashley set her backpack on her porch and walked over to Patricia, Joy following. "Hey, Trish," Ashley greeted her; she sat down next to Patricia. "Where's everyone else?"
And as if on cue Nina Martin slid through a gap in the hedges connecting her and Ashley's yards "What did I miss?" Nina asked flipping her long, curly, ash-brown hair behind her shoulder. Nina and Ashley were constantly getting in fights. She was the smart and athletic one, she played field hockey, track, and soccer, volunteered for charity and was on yearbook comity and she still had time to go shopping, and hang-out with her best-friends.
"Did I miss anything?" They turned around to see their other bestie Amber Millington jumping out of her mom's Mercedes and running over to them.
"New sweater?" Ashley asked, gesturing to Amber's three-sizes-too-big sweater, she shook her head. Ever since her parents got divorced she gained weight and started wearing sweaters and baggy jeans.
"Hey Trixie and everyone else" Jerome said, (lately he was showing signs of crushing on Patricia) getting off his bike, Alfie, Mick, Fabian and Eddie following on their bike or skateboard, they said hey and started talking about their end-of-the-year sleepover.
They had all become friends last year when their parents volunteered them in the for Ericson Day School charity drive — well, all except Nina who volunteered herself of course, but although Ashley didn't know about them, she became their friend, but they knew about her she was perfect, beautiful, smart and popular. Boys wanted to date Ashley and girls — even older ones — wanted to be her. Ashley had complemented them and they could help but be…well amazed. Before Ashley was their friend, Amber was the fat girl who's only friend was Michael Chin, Patricia was the Goth girl who could draw people in minutes, Nina was the competitive smart and sporty girl, Joy was the swimmer girl whose hair was black but turned brown, Eddie was the wannabe jock, Fabian was the geek obsessed with comics, Alfie and Jerome were two boys no one took seriously and Mick was the meathead jock that ate a lot. But that was their past and Ashley made them feel so special.
Now, more than a year later, the last day of seventh grade, they weren't just best friends or a clique at Ericson Day. Ashley, Joy, Patricia, Nina, Amber, Jerome, Fabian, Mick and Alfie become the clique of Ericson Day. A lot had happened to make it that way their sleepovers, trips to each other's relatives and the mini fashion shows the girls would do while the guys were the judges. But there were things they wanted to forget, but couldn't and there was one secret they couldn't bear to talk about. Ashley had said their secrets were what kept them close.
"I'm so glad this day is over," Ashley moaned as they all climbed the gap in the hedges. "So the sleepover's at your barn?" she looked at Nina, who nodded.
"I'm so glad seventh grade is over" Patricia said as everyone followed Nina to her barn-turned-guesthouse, where her older sister, Amanda, had lived for her junior and senior years. Fortunately, she just graduated and was heading to Seattle this summer, so it was all theirs for the night.
Then they heard a high squeaky voice call "Ashley! Hey Ashley! Hey guys!" they all knew the voice it was Amelia Vanderwaal.
They all turned around and saw Amelia ridding her razor scooter as always, she had changed out of her school uniform into a sleeveless yellow top a black stripe in the middle with a black collar, a denim ruffled skirt, poke-a-dotted leggings, the pink cheetah print scurf she always wears, black flats, her Hello Kitty backpack on her scooters handle, her rainbow cheetah print glasses that Amber hated would fall off if she hadn't pushed them up to the bridge of her nose and her long white blond hair in pigtails.
"Not it" Ashley whispered
"Not it" everyone said, but Amber said it last, they looked at her.
"Shit" Amber whispered
It was a game Ashley had made up whenever there was anyone ugly, lame or unfortunate around them and now 'not it' was for Amelia Vanderwaal— a dork that lived down the street who spent most of her time trying to befriend Ashley and her crew — her two freaky friends Chelsea Bledsoe and Lily Templeton. Chelsea always had some electronic geeky thing with her and Lily went everywhere with her yo-yo — enough said. The three girls smiled at them.
"Do you wanna come over and watch the history channel?" Amelia called.
"Sorry" Ashley simpered. "We can't, we're busy." And without waiting to hear what they had to say, Ashley turned around rolling her eyes and walking to the barn although the others thought it was mean she was Ashley and if anyone made her mad she would ruin them, so the others following.
"I'm sooooo glad the workers have their day off today" Ashley claimed.
"Have they been harassing you again" Joy asked.
"It's nothing, Ares" Ashley taunted, calling Joy, by her nickname cause Joy was overly-protective of her, just like her aunt's Pitbull, Joy used to think it was funny, but now she hated that nickname.
When they got to the barn, Ashley opened the door and saw Amanda and her boyfriend Conner Thomas making out on the couch. "What the fu—" Amanda started, then she saw it was, kids, as she called them "Oh, hey kids"
Everyone, but Amanda and Conner, looked at Nina, who always said her sister was a complete and utter bitch.
Conner stood up looked at Nina "Hey," He smiled flirtatiously at her.
"Amanda, can I just say you and Conner are the cutest couple ever" Ashley said.
"Thanks, but we have to go" Amanda said, she hated Ashley for no reason at all and made up excuses to get away from her.
Jerome saw how all the girls swooned over Conner "Doesn't he just have the most beautiful eyes?" He said in a high-pitched voice, making all of them laugh.
"Okay, so tell me what everyone brought" Ashley demanded after they all stopped laughing. Everyone said what they had "This is so gonna be an all-nighter"
"I'm gonna go change" Nina said grabbing her bag and heading to the bathroom.
"Me too" Ashley and the rest of the girls agreed and followed Nina.
After the girls got changed, they watched some movies, until Ashley got bored. "Hey I know how to talk to spirits you guys wanna?"
"Ash, I don't think that's a good idea" Nina said nervously.
"Don't be a wimp, Nines" Ashley titled her head and smiled sweetly; she looked at Patricia and saw the pig puppet she always had next to her. "Why do you always have that pig?"
"My dad got it for me" Patricia said picking up the pig. "It's special to me"
"Why would you want something from your dad?" Ashley said, making Jerome laugh.
"It's not funny" Patricia snapped.
They all fell silent, that had been happening lately. Ashley would say something about their secrets and the others would be confused. Ashley rolled her eyes "Whatever, so Nina why are you being a wimp"
"I'm not, I just don't think it's a good idea" Nina said crossing her arms.
"Fine, I'm leaving" Ashley said grabbing her stuff and storming out of the barn.
"Go after her" Joy told Nina a few minutes after. "You guys are always getting in fights, just go and talk to her."
"Why?" Nina asked. "She's always picking on us"
"She's just joking, you know that" Fabian said.
"Fine" Nina said she put on her shoes and left.
Fifteen minutes later Nina ran into the barn. "I can't find her" Nina paused. "I think I heard a scream"
They decided to go inside Nina's house and go to sleep.
It had been weeks since Ashley had gone missing Patricia was getting ready to move to LA, Nina barley left her room, Amber stopped eating, whenever she saw pizza or pasta (Ashley's favorite food) she would run to the bathroom and puke or almost puke, Joy was almost got kicked off her swimming team, Fabian stopped reading comics and studying, Mick started studying and got into advanced classes, Alfie only left his room for food and school, Jerome stopped pranking, Eddie stopped talking unless someone talked to him and was acting emo, they all stopped talking to each other all because they were now scared of their home, Liverpool.
Although Ashley was well…Ashley they all still loved her, they would never admit it, but they were glad that she disappeared. But their secrets disappeared as well. At least for three years anyway after they all almost forgot about it.
