Ashley's pov

" Rachel schools almost over, only one week left then summer!" i said excitedly flipping my black hair away to put my school bag on. " I no this summers gunna rock !" Rachel said while giving me the tightest hug ever before turning around and hitting my face with her long brown hair.

" so what are we going to do?" I said with the biggest smile on my face

"well we should go to the movies, the beach, the mall, the city, the.."

I cut her off she would've kept going for ever she likes to talk " Rachel lets take this one day at a time" I said laughing at skirther while she was staring into space with her big blue eyes.

"ok I just cant wait!" she said jumping around in her little Hollister skirt

" ok well I have to get home my mom wants me to come home for dinner, call me later?" I asked, in a you better call me tone!

"defiantly, have fun bye" Rachel said as she gave me a hug and started to walk away.

I couldn't wait to get home I was so excited to tell my mom about all my summer plans! And it was going to be the best summer ever.

When I got home my mom was busy on the computer so I just went up in my room and blasted my music and started dancing around like a maniac.

My mom finally came upstairs, so I turned down my music.

"heyyy mom!" I said with a huge smile on my face

"o hi Ashley how was your day at school?" she asked as she walked in my room and leaned

" it was great!" I said with that same smile still like I wanted to tell her something

"why are you so happy?" she asked giving me a weird look.

"well me and Rachel were talking about summer today, its going to be so much fun were gunna do everything together." I said

"um o" my mom said like she had bad news for me but didn't want to burst my bubble.

"aren't you happy for me!" I said giving her a fake smile

"um well I was just on the computer" she said not wanting to go on

"yea I no I saw you and?" I asked with a confused look on my face

"well you no that summer house we got in California a while ago?" She asked

"yea go on" I said with a little attitude

" well I just planed a 5 week vacation there for this summer just the two of us to go down and maybe see some of the family, it's a friendly place there will be a lot of kids and some cute boys, maybe you'll meet someone !" she said with a wink trying to make me happy

"are you serious mom what am I supposed to tell Rachel?" I said on the urge of crying

"well I already planed it so we have to go now sorry honey" she said with the worst attitude then walked out of my room.

I was so upset I had to call Rachel.

"hi Rachel its Ashley"

"hey Ashley what's wrong?" she said with a worried voice

" my mom just told me were going to California for most the summer and we have to go. this is going to ruin all our summer plans." I said angrily

"o that stinks I'm going to miss you so much!" Rachel said trying to make me feel better

"well so how about them Yankees?" Rachel said trying to change the subject

"nice try Rach I'm still upset well I have to go eat but ill call you back" I said with an upset voice

" ok love you bye"

As I walked down to dinner I was mad I didn't really want to talk to my mom.

During dinner my mom explained how she paid already so we have to go but she did tell me I can bring one person I was so happy.

After dinner I went upstairs and called Rachel.

"hey rach guess what?" I asked excitedly

"um what?" Rachel said having not a clue what was going on

"well my mom told me I can bring a friend to California with me I am so excited I cant wait were going to have so much fun!" I said not even taking a breath

" omg yay I cant wait!" Rachel said happily

"ok well its getting late so ill talk to you tomorrow we can start planning our vacation!" I said as I un made my bed and lied down

"k bye" Rachel said and hung up and went to bed.
