"But we are young, we run green,
Keep our teeth, nice and clean,
See our friends, see the sights, feel alright"

The next few days went by and Ashley was surprisingly on time to school everyday. It was finally the last day of school and there was only 10minutes left until summer officially started. And as Ashley stared at the clock in an almost empty room, her name was called over the announcements. "WOULD ASHLEY DAVIES PLEASE REPORT TO MR. ALFORD'S OFFICE." She rolled her eyes and look at her teacher. The woman just nodded as a signal for Ashley to leave. Tons of things were running through her mind as she made her way to the office. And she was preparing for the worst...

'If he says I have to be a junior again I'm going to throw his stupid desk out the window. Honestly, how could attendance determine if someone passes or fails? I'm at the top of my class too! Ughh...'

Ashley arrived in the main office and simple walked straight back to Principal Alford's office; she knew it well. And when she walked in Principal Alford was reading over papers at his desk. He looked up to find Ashley standing there, expressionless.

"Go ahead and sit down Ms. Davies." She sat down and he continued, "Well, I'm glad to hear that you've been prompt everyday this week. Take no offense to this but, it shocked me a little."

"Thanks, I think." Ashley couldn't take his stalling.

"Ok. So I'm sure you know why you're in here." Ashley nodded. "Ms. Davies I want to stress to you how important it is to attend school everyday if you can. I know you're at the top 10 percent of your class but that doesn't mean you get special skip day privileges..." Ashley just knew what what coming. "And I really want you to keep that in mind..."

'This is ridiculous! Dude just let me pass! I bet I'm even smarter tha...'

"..next year when you are a sneior." Principal Alford grinned.

"Wait," Ashley was taken back by what she just heard. "So I passed?!"

"Yes Ashley you did."

"Thank you so much Principal Alford!!!"

Ashley went to shake his hand and practically shook it off. "Well Ashley I want you to know that this is your only freebie. Next year I will be watching your attendance and if you're continually absent I won't allow you to graduate with your class. No matter how high you are ranked at that point."

"Ok. I understand." Ashley couldn't help but smile.

"Now go on and enjoy your summer."

Ashley started heading out the door, "Thanks again, Al." And she left.

ASHLEY'S HOUSE

Kyla wasn't home when Ashely pulled up to her house so she decided to text Kyla.

'Alford let me go on to the next grade!!! I'm a senior now!!!'

'Way2goAshley! But youre not a senior till i walk across that stage lol'

'Well whatever, either way im gonna be a senior!:D'

'I know:). Im proud of you lil sis! haha'

'Thanks. Where are you anyways?'

'W/Zak and chelsea'

'Glad i was invited lol'

'You were in school:P'

'Unfortunately:/. Its kool i'll find somethin to wreak havoc on:D'

'You always do hahaha. See you at home later.'

'Later!'

AIDEN'S HOUSE

Ashley drove up to Aiden's house and saw his car parked in the driveway so she pulled in next to his car. She figured that since they were best friend's she didn't really need to call and ask him if she could come over. Even though he always asked her to call before she showed, she just showed up unannounced. She knew he really didn't mind that much.

She decided to text him. 'Open the door bro:P'

It didn't take long for the front door to open and Ashley just walked in like nothing. "What's up?"

"Hey Ashley it'd be really cool if you came over!"

"Oh don't give me your sarcastic attitude. You're mom said I never needed an invitation to come over." She stuck her tongue out at Aiden.

"That's because she doesn't know you're crazy. Or that you're the one who eats everything in our kitchen. She still thinks it's me and complains that I eat too much."

Ashley laughed, "We don't have a ton of groceries at our house like you do. I mean come on, you even have those Cosmic Brownies with the sprinkle stuff that I love so much."

"Ya those are for my little brother's lunch. And the last time you came over and ate them all he threw a huge bitch fit and I had to go to the store at 6:45AM so he could have one in his lunch that day for school."

"Cheer up Aiden! It's summertime now!" Ashley smiled and walked out to the patio, sat in one of the chairs and waited until Aiden went and sat down after her. "So what are we doing today Aiden?"

Aiden laughed, "Same thing we do everyday Ashley..."

"Smoke pot?"

The two busted out laughing. "You're such a stoner Ashley." Aiden continued to laugh.

Ashley was surprised at that comment. "Uh I think not. I DO NOT get high everyday. And besides, I was kidding with the whole smoke pot answer. What I meant was, we're going to try to take over the world." She grinned. "But really, what do you wanna do?"

Aiden thought for a moment, "I dunno. You wanna just hang out in the pool?"

"Sure. But I'm gonna need to borrow some trunks and a tank top."

"And a bungee cable because my trunks are probably too big for you."

"Don't be self conscious Aiden you aren't fat."

He chuckled, "I know. But you're just really teeny tiny."

"It'll work out."

"Ok..."

So Ashley was sagging as her and Aiden were swimming and relaxing in Aiden's pool. The two spent at least 3hours in the pool before they got out and decided to go run around town for a while.

CARLIN HOUSE

The Carlin siblings were all home, with their parents both out at work. They were all sitting in the living room playing Wii Sports to pass the time. Clay's phone went off and after a minute of messing with it he picked his head up, "Do you guys mind if Chelsea, Zak, and Kyla come over and hang out?"

"Doesn't really matter to me." Glen replied, "I'm actually gonna leave here in about 10minutes anyways. Gonna go to the gym, work on my guns." Glen checked his arms out and flexed them. "Gotta look good for the ladies you know?"

Spencer and Clay just rolled their eyes. "Ok Glen. So Spencer you don't mind do you?"

"No. Why would I?"

"I dunno. I guess cause you only really talk to Chelsea and not Kyla or Zak."

"Oh. Ya well I'm fine with them coming over."

"Cool."

Glen left a while later and soon after Chelsea, Zak, and Kyla arrived. They all came in and sat down in the living room. Clay next to Chelsea, Kyla next to Zak, and Spencer sat in a love seat, by herself. She slightly felt fifth wheel but didn't think it was that big of a deal. The friends were all talking for a while and decided to go out to the movies but Spencer said that the four should just go and have a double date without her.

"Are you sure?" Chelsea asked. "You know it's no big deal if you come."

"Ya it's totally fine. I'm not really in the mood to watch a movie anyways."

They all started to leave then and Clay still kind of felt bad. "Are you sure?"

"Yes Clay. I'm a big girl and can take care of myself." She smiled at her brother.

"Ha, I guess you're right."

So the group left and Spencer stayed sitting on the couch. She pulled out her phone.

'So guess who was just at my house'

'Megan Fox:D'

'Psh, no! Hahaha, your sister'

'Why was she over there?'

'Her,chels,n zak came over. Them and clay went to the movies though'

'You didnt go?'

'Nope'

'???'

'5th wheel is lame. Even when they say its ok haha'

'Lol good point. So youre just hangin by yourself?'

'You ask alot of questions!! Ha, ya i am'

'Thats just how i roll ma:P ANYWAYSSS...why dont we ever hang?'

'Hmm, i dunno. We just txt&talk at school'

'Ya i know...we should hang out. Since we're friends right? ha, no pressure!'

'Lol of course we're friends! Well whenever you want to do something lemme know. Schools out so im generally always freeC:'

'What are you doin right now then?'

'Nothing. Why?'

'Lets hang out then'

'Uh, ok ha'

Once Ashley recieved her text she looked up at Aiden, who was too busy shoveling Chinese noodles into his mouth to realize Ashley had been on her phone for a while now. They had decided to take a break from their "adventurous" day and go eat.

"Hey do you care if Spencer hangs out with us for the rest of the day?"

"Ya I don't care. I don't really talk to her as like a friend though. I mean I know her but not like, well. Does she care?"

"I don't think she will but I'll ask."

'Im with Aiden D. too is that kool?'

'Well if yall are already hanging out we can do something some other time'

'No its kool with us. He just wanted to make sure you were kool.'

'Oh, ya im ok with it'

'K. We're gonna go play lazer tag in a bit. Sound good?'

'Ya! ha'

'Haha you wanna meet us or we come get you?'

'Whichever is easier'

Aiden was now paying attention to Ashley now. "So is she hangin with us?"

"Ya. Do you mind if we swing by her house before lazer tag so she can ride in the same car with us?"

"Doesn't matter to me. We're in your ride."

Ashley laughed a bit. "Ok." And went back to her phone while Aiden went back to stuffing his face.

'K we'll pick you up after aidens done inhaling his food. So i'll call you on how to get to your house when we're done'

'Lol k'

Aiden finally finished his 20lbs. of Chinese food and Ashley called Spencer for directions to her house. They made it to the house without a problem and the three friends went to play laser tag.

LASER TAG, AN HOUR LATER..

Aiden was hunched over by some bushes in the front of Lazer Quest, as Ashley and Spencer were standing a good distance away from him. After 3games and all the running around, Aiden started to feel sick. The noodles and egg rolls were obviously not agreeing with him at that point. So Spencer and Ashley were talking amongst themselves as their friend was blowing chunks in front of a huge building that was constantly having people come in and out, as if it were perfectly normal. They found it funny but unfortunately Aiden wasn't as amused. Ashley couldn't help but tease him about it a bit though.

"Aiden you shouldn't have eaten enough to feed a small country then decide to run around a bunch."

"Thanks for the advice Ash." Aiden was still hunched over though he felt he was done vomiting.

"No problem man. I got your back." Spencer started giggling so Ashley kept up the act. "AND, it'll be a funny story for Spencer to tell everyone. First time she rolls with us you get sick in front of Lazer Quest." Spencer laughed quietly then.

"Glad I can entertain people Ashley." He started to stand straight up.

"Sorry Aiden." Spencer didn't mean to make him feel worse but Ashley was funny.

"Oh no Spencer you don't need to apologize. ASHLEY however-"

Ashley was quick to cut him off. "Oh you're fine you big baby. Remember that time when we were kids and you fell outta the tree and broke your arm? You were just fine so I don't think a little bit of Chinese food is going to kill you."

"You never know Ash. What if I were to kill over right this second? You'd feel horrible."

"No Aiden I would just find it ironic and then Spencer and I would go hang out back at my house like we planned to anyways."
Ashley gave him a big smile and Spencer just shook her head slowly and laughed.

Aiden looked to Spencer, "She ever this mean to you?"

"Ha, no not usually."

"Well aren't you a lucky one." Aiden laughed a bit.

Ashley just rolled her eyes a bit and grinned, "See Aiden you feel fine. Now let's get in the whip and flip."

Aiden followed Ashley as she headed towards her car and Spencer followed after him but was a bit confused. "Hey I might sound stupid for asking but, Ashley, what'd you just say?"

"Oh, I meant like, let's get outta here."

"Ah. K that makes sense."

"Don't worry about it Spencer. Ashley's crazy and uses all this wordage that doesn't make sense sometimes."

Ashley turned around, "Wordage? Really Aiden?"

They all just laughed and got into Ashley's car.

ASHLEY'S HOUSE..

When the 3friends pulled up to Ashley's house they saw that Kyla and Clay's car was in the driveway.

"I guess there's a party at my house."

They got out of the car and went inside to find Kyla, Zak, Chelsea, and Clay playing Rock Band in the living room.

"Hey guys." Kyla paused the game and everyone looked up.

Zak saw that Ashley was standing next to Spencer. "Ya Ashley what's up?"

Ashley rolled her eyes; she and Kyla both knew what he meant by that and Kyla slapped him lightly across the chest. "Do yall wanna play with us?"

Aiden decided to answer for all 3 of them before Ashley or Spencer could get a word in. "Ya we do!"

And as they were all going to sit down Zak moved over on the couch he was sitting on so that Spencer and Ashley would have to sit next to each other. Ashley pulled out her phone to text him.

'Jackass xP'

'U can thank me l8r. Like ur wedding!'

'Whatever man!'
