I just wanted to do a short recap because I'm getting a little jumbled- I'm up to chapter 87 and I think this is time to review.
Family
Ashlee is 21 and from New Jersey she lived with her nana, she has 2 twin brothers around 18 who live with their parents in Philadelphia and a sister who is 20 who live in Ashlee's old apartment in NJ. Ashlee's parents sent her to live with her nana when she was 10 so she could go to a better school. Her parents are very closed off and don't show much love her dad is okay and cares but the mom acts like she could care less and always rags on her. Ashlee wants to have a big family but finds it hard to stay close to any of them.
Past Relationships
Ashlee use to go out with Gavin who was the lead singer of Terror 24in high school I kind of based this character off of the typical buff spiky blonde macho rock star in my real story she dates him for years and just can't move on until she falls for his band mate. Gavin introduced Ashlee to Johnny they stay friends for a long time while she dates another guy until she eventually falls for him. In my mind is skinny and straggly, blonde long hair, greasy kind of guy. But loves her in his own way but just can never tell her or stay faithful. She loves him so much that she doesn't make him put a title on it she's just kind of there when he needs her so in the beginning of my story there not really together but you can still tell they have something for each other. Between Gavin and Johnny is Quinton who use to live near her in Philly in my real story he was a bad boy in the neighborhood kind of white trash family but good people, but he was so good to her and they stayed together for a long time almost all through high school. But her and Johnny's friendship started to turn into more he would sneak in through the window and they would just stay up all night talking. She would turn off the ringer to the phones before she went to bed and just left her ringer on so Johnny could call and they would talk until she had to go to school. Ashlee broke up with Quinton and just really tried not talking to him or thinking about him. Johnny treated her good until he started using drugs and it just got worse and worse until he figured out it wasn't helping anyone and started drinking thinking it wouldn't be as bad as drugs. Ashlee was at one the Terror 24's gigs and seen Drake Parker singing it was different from everything else that was playing and that she liked but there was something about him. He said hi to her every night he played and she kind of ignored him until she decided she was going to take action.
Drake Parker
She thought it was going to be a weekend thing but it turned out to be so much more after 3 days he asked her to come back to California with him she hesitantly agrees to go because terror 24 was flying out in a week anyway. There romance sky rockets until one night he kisses another girl and gets into a huge car accident trying to race home and explain himself he breaks his jaw and has it wired shut for 3 months, Ashlee decides to stay to help out because she's guilt ridden and can't see leaving him there alone. Their relationship is going great and he asks her to marry him the first day he gets the wires taken off his mouth. She agrees but doesn't know how to react she was with Johnny for so long she forgot how it felt to have someone care for her unconditionally. She almost flinches inside every time he says I love you and she explains no one has ever said it to her except her nana. Drake slips into the rock star cliché he starts doing drugs after Ashlee miss carries because he was so depressed about not the accident and being out of the music business for so long. He cheats on her many times but she only catches him a few times.
Josh
Josh and Ashlee become best friends immediately they are both very down to earth people. Josh and Ashlee have a lot in common but just aren't made for each other there is a lot of back and forth from them in the beginning, they do slip once and kiss once and their relationship is really never the same after that. Josh gets a girlfriend who is in one of the earlier chapter giving Ashlee a hard time because she secretly has a crush on Drake. Jenna is a total bitch she likes being like that and she knows Josh is vulnerable and takes full advantage of it. She sleeps with Drake and it becomes the final straw Ashlee moves out and gets her own apartment. Josh and Ashlee stay friends, he takes her to a little open mic café and she meets Jared who she thinks is gay. They become friends very quickly and share a kiss but it turns out to be nothing. After a few weeks she decides to forgive Drake but there's something different about him he acts like the perfect boyfriend for like a week and then tries to make Ashlee mad on purpose to she would break up with him momentarily so he could sleep with a girl that he's been working on a music video with. Now this video is taking a lot longer than usual he starts having meeting with her months before the actual shoot. Ashlee knows something is up between them, she plans a huge 21st birthday party for Drake and she doesn't see him the whole party and when she does Bebe and Drake are holding each other close whispering in each other's ear. Ashlee asks to butt in but he pushes her away.
The big break up
Ashlee is done with Drake after she the birthday incident she changes her number and kicks him out she wants nothing to do with him so she cuts off contact completely. She starts not feeling good and finds out she's 2 months pregnant. She decides to do it on her own and not tell Drake. Jared and Ashlee become closer and closer he almost lives with her. He reads stories to her belly every night; he offers to do anything she needs while she's going to school to help her finish her last year. She falls in love with him but as a friend and nothing else. It comes out later they did make out one night but decided to be friends. Jared and Ashlee are in the mall she's 5 months pregnant and it is very noticeable. Josh sees them at the mall and Drake is also there with another girl. Drake automatically knows whose baby it is at first he's furious that she didn't tell him but only because this was the only thing that he wanted and Ashlee refused to give him while they were together.
One big family
Ashlee and Drake decide to get back together after Drake shows what kind of guy he could really be he's sweet and caring he becomes the perfect boyfriend with some quirks. When everything is going the right way Bebe comes out on TV says she was pregnant to by Drake, the media slams him as he denies it. Bebe recants her story saying she lost it. People take Drakes side saying she was never really pregnant. Megan moves in with all of us after Drake has a huge fight with his parents about his life style. Megan ends up hooking up with Jared at the persuasive hand of Ashlee. The boys always told Ashlee stories about Megan and just couldn't believe it she was nothing but sweet to her and she thought of her like a sister they became really close but when Jared wont sleep with her and starts hanging out with Ashlee all her feelings become bottled up and she just lets the explode all over Ashlee accusing her of liking Jared and wanting to steal her away from her. Ashlee tries to let things work itself out between her and Megan she is also trying to get Josh to stand up and be a man around woman and not let them take advantage like Jenna did. Ashlee is now almost 7 months pregnant with a boy and her and drake are the happiest they had ever been.
In the real story Gavin is the one with a kid and is a lot older then Ashlee when she was 16 he was like25 and had a baby .Johnny never get a girl pregnant but does settle down with a girl and when Ashlee has the big break up with Drake she goes back to live with Johnny for a while they stay friends but she ends up with Quinton who is in the army she ends up staying with him in Nevada where he is stationed only to find out he wasn't the good guys he use to be he plays her before she could play him again. The only reason she goes back with Drake is that her and Josh are supposed to meet up in Los Vegas and he ends up having to go to the hospital and Drake calls her in a panic not telling her what was wrong she jumps on the next plane to find out he has appendicitis and he was going to be fine he was always fine he was even going to still meet her in LV but her and Drake spark again!
A lot of stuff I do is inspired by the music I listen to, I have a playlist just for writing… I always accept what people think and take into consideration of what they want to happen next! So don't be scared to tell me what you think or what you want to happen! I hope you all love it… PS I read and review almost all new stories so I'm not just the kinda person who writes and doesn't review anyone elses
