((Ugh. Jerk guys.
.... I didn't really date a lot, so I have no experience with that. XD))
((I think that sums Mason's character up pretty well. XD
o.o Mick will get friends Monday. Don't you worry. Drake will be his buddy.
It would be hilarious. XD LET'S DO IT. Chase/Ash meets Arlo/Keilana!
Or even, like, Chase and Ash could go to the same restaurant as them, but neither notices the other.
Until Arlo starts proposing to Keilana.
HAHA.))
"Alright, alright." Ash grinned at him. "I think you might be thinking a little over the top. Not sure that anyone would think our brothers would have murdered us, although I like your imagination. And I did not end up drinking because you showed up with a cake before I could." Not that she was mad. Ash had had more fun just drinking juice for an entire night than she usually did getting drunk.
"We should go to a movie, then. I complain pretty much the whole time." Ash replied. Which was true. "Particularly about movies based off books, although I may ruin the whole thing for her." Both her father and Jace had refused to see movies with her anymore because of that.
"Sounds good." Ash stood up and picked up her towel. "I'm going to get dressed real quick and lock my ferret up, and then I'll be ready. I can just meet you in the car?" Part of this was so her father wouldn't possibly stumble across a Chase. Ash was not willing to deal with that today.
Without necessarily waiting for an answer, Ash saluted him and then headed off towards her bedroom.
--
"You work with Girl Scouts?" Mason laughed. "I will admit, I am not that surprised. You look like the kind of person that would do Girl Scout-y things." Whatever that meant, no one really knew but Mason, and even he didn't understand. She just had a certain look about her... apparently.
"Well, you're welcome. Enjoy those flowers." Mason replied.
He pulled out his phone. "Well, I can just give you Jace's number and you can give it to Sophia?" Mason suggested and waved a hand dismissively, answering what he presumed would be Mia's next question before she could even ask. "Don't worry. He had a great time with Sophia. Wouldn't shut up about her. He won't care if I make sure she has his number... and I can't believe he socialized with her so well."
"Sounds like Drake. Thanks for, uh, giving him a good night, I guess? And just being with him. I get worried about him when we're at parties." Mason explained. "I try not to drink too much so I can, uh, I can remember to watch out for him. Or at least keep him in my eyesight, but I kind of failed last night at all of that." He had left the party, gotten drunk, and then passed out alone in the living room of his apartment. Yep. How pleasant.
"You ride horses in shows? Nifty. I don't think I've met horse people in my life before." Mason replied. He hadn't really talked to anyone besides the hot girls at school and even those, he hadn't talked to long enough to know what they did outside of school.
"Thanks. I had an interview today." Mason said proudly. He was, of course, lying but it was impossible to tell.
--
Jace walked into the ice cream shop. "Wow, I need to take pickup lines from you." He laughed and took out his phone, passing it to Zia for her to input her number. "So, uh, you go to Westbrook, right? Why do I feel like I've never seen you around?" And then, before she could answer, Jace found himself answering his own question. "It's probably because I spend my entire day in this old abandoned music room downstairs, practicing the guitar."
Wow. WOW. No wonder Jack had been worried about Jace and encouraged him to make friends. He was pitiful.

(And Mick just looks all freaked out and then goes to talk to Elita after school XD
Arlo: um I can explain
Chase: yeah?
Arlo: MOM LOVES ME MORE)
"No, I'll tell you. You... deserve to know, I guess. It's about Kyle and I know you never liked him, so that probably doesn't surprise you... But, not until tonight. We'll let your parents watch Richie and we'll lock ourselves in your room with ice cream or go outside or something. Your parents don't need to know about my problems, but you are like my best friend," she giggled, actually feeling a bit better about telling Kris.
Hopefully her cousin wouldn't have her drive her to Kyle's house at midnight, but whatever. Jordan wasn't going to mess with Kris.
"Anyway, why don't you put it into my GPS? That way we can talk without worrying about missing a turn or something," she said, unlocking her phone. She opened up the GPS app she used and handed it over to Kris.
She turned on the car but didn't pull out. "And if we're stopping at the grocery store we should get that little bug back there some ice cream," she said, watching Richie in her rear view mirror. She called him her little bug since the day he was born.
Man, she missed spending time with her cousins. It's gotten so hard since high school started.
Once he address was in her phone, she began driving. It didn't take too long to arrive at the restaurant and she stopped he car in the parking lot and got out.

{Omg imagine if Elita saw Mason while they were out and she just silently walks up to him and hits him over the head again for leaving her in such an awkward situation and she doesn't even pay anyone else any mind as she starts berating him}
Elita, true to her silent vow, did smack her brother for "leaving her out there to die" as she worded it when she went back inside. Tobias had just laughed and went back to work. She also sent off a few texts to Mason that were a combination of cussing, demands for her money, and numerous variations of "I hate you and everything you stand for except for your daughter." Yeah, she was still mad about that. Then she changed into something a little more suitably for being seen, though it wasn't like she had looked all that bad in the first place. She just preferred to look less like a mess when she went outside.
When she got the text, she headed out to the front. "Tobias, I'm, uh, going out, so I'll be back later," she told him. He stared at her, bewildered by the fact that she was actually leaving the shop.
"Are you okay?" he asked, joking concern in his voice. "Are you being threatened? Do I need to call someone? Are you an alien?" At her unimpressed stare, he laughed and shook his head. "Alright, alright. I'm glad you're going out. Text me if you need a ride home, okay?" He gave her a one-armed hug and then let her go off outside, somehow not noticing the motorcycle or the large guy waiting.
Elita went outside and smiled as she saw Mick. "Hi," she greeted, walking up to him. Wow, he was a whole lot taller than her, she noticed. Pretty much everybody was taller than her, honestly, but it was still a bit of a shock seeing him.

(i am trying to follow along but you people talk a lot and are crazy. haha.
the amount of drama.)
Zia inserted her number and passed the phone back to him. "I can teach you all about getting a girl, if you really want to know." She winked at him and then ordered a chocolate ice cream cone from the ice cream parlor man, before turning back to Jace. "Is that where you're always hiding out? I thought maybe you were a dropout. I used to see you around and then you just kind of vanished." She explained with a shrug.
"You play the guitar?" She clasped her hands together for a moment before taking her now finished ice cream cone from parlor man. "You should let me listen sometime. Or you should play live for one of the school dances!" That would be cool.

"Hey, its possible. I mean, Arlo's protective of me. Unless he did it first and Jace wanted revenge?" Chase shrugged. "You're right, though, my creative mind could have better uses than figuring out who would've murdered us."
"Or Jace and Arlo can go see a movie together in stony silence and not have us there to ruin it?" he suggested, though he knew his brother would never even think about the idea. He didn't know Jace and it was obvious that Arlo wasn't much for making new friends.
Chase was surprised he'd disappeared with Keilana during the party. Apparently they got along decently.
"See ya," Chase said. He made his way to the driveway and pulled on his socks and shoes before sitting on the hood of his car and waiting for Ash.
***
"Ha ha. I know. Get all the jokes out now. The 'awww that's so cute'. The 'cookie dealer'. The whatever else you might come up with. I've heard it all before. I'm 17. I'm still a Girl Scout. I work at camp every year," she said. Might as well admit it all.
"Sophia and Jace seem like an odd match, but if they get along I'm not gonna argue. He might be a good influence on her," Mia said. She got Jace's number in her phone so she could give it to Sophia later.
"If you ever need time alone at a party or something, I'd be glad to hang out with Drake. He actually, uh, helped me with something," she said, not wanting to say that something was being hung up on the whole Mason and Adriane drama. She hadn't asked Mason what happened after he left her and Adriane. She didn't think she wanted to know. "You should actually thank Jack. He sent Drake over to us because he didn't want me alone with Adriane. Drake and I started dancing and it just went from there," she said with a shrug.
"Yeah. You should come meet my lease horse sometime. Kid. He's great. The barn's almost an hour away though, so it'd be like an all day thing. We could grab lunch or something on the way back..." she kind of trailed off.
"Oh, well, good luck with your interview. I hope it went well," she said, smiling. She'd believed the lie. Why wouldn't she believe it?
"Hey, Mason, instead of sitting on the bench chatting, do you wanna grab a bite to eat or go to the beach or something?" she asked. Now was probably the best time to ask him out to do something.

He had never seemed like a very good person to start with, and he seemed to high maintenance and full of himself. She didn't get the whole 'social hierarchy' thing either, though she knew that it kind of existed in her school. She honestly didn't know where she stood on that social ladder, and she didn't care. The point was, she had never made it a secret that she hadn't liked Kyle. She hoped she just didn't regret not having tried to encourage Jordan away from that relationship. "Alright, we'll talk later." She input the address into the GPS and let it show the way. At the mention of ice cream, Richie exclaimed, "Ice cream ice cream!" Kris laughed, almost cooing at her little brother's enthusiasm. She really did love him, even if he was irritating at times. When they got to the restaurant, she got out of the car and went to get Richie out of his car seat. She took a minute to convince him to leave his action figure in the car so he didn't lose it, then carried him out. "Time for some good ol' fashion fast food goodness," she said to Jordan, grinning widely. |

((Oh my gosh, Elita. XD She's great. And Tobias.))
Ash made it to her room safely. (Wow, what a surprise) She changed into something that, well, was actual clothing and not just a bikini. Her clothing was simple: a simple blouse, skinny jeans, and flats. That combination was probably Ash's favorite clothing combination of all time, although flats did make it difficult to run from, say, the cops. Usually, if that happened, she would just kick them off and carry them.
"Alright, Jeffery." Ash started lecturing her ferret as she picked him up from her bed, where he had been fast asleep. She held his sleepy little face up so that she was eye level with him. "I'm going out for a while, alright? You have food and water and I will let you out when I get back. Sorry about covering you in what looked like pink frosting. I was on a sugar high. Anyway, wish me luck. I'm going to hangout with a boy. The same boy that probably helped me cover you in what I think was pink frosting. Anyway, not in a date way... I think. I would love to discuss this with you, but I must go. Good bye. I love you." And with that, she returned Jeffery the ferret to his cage, where he headed for his hammock and went to sleep, before heading out of her room.
Within a few minutes, Ash was heading out the front door and smiling. "Alright, let's go." She said as she hopped down her front stairs, taking two at at time.
--
Mason held up his hands. "Whoa, whoa, whoa. I wasn't going to say anything like that. I do love your cookies. We end up buying a ton every year to last us for the whole year, but somehow they never make it passed a day."
"He might be a good influence on her?" Mason laughed at that. "I'm hoping she's a good influence on him. Or they can both nicely influence each other. They're like polar opposites but together, I think they would make the perfect human. Or a human that was a complete mess. Anyway, I hope they hang out more."
He shook his head. "I would never purposely drop Drake on someone. I mean, I guess he's sixteen and he can watch himself or whatever, but he tends to be a little, uh... stupid. Too trustworthy. People will pass him a cup of something and he'll just drink it without thinking." Oh goodness, that boy was going to be a mess if Mason ever left him. "I'm glad he could help you out, though. Despite his childishness, he's actually nice to talk to."
"A whole day, huh?" Mason shrugged. "If I get a day off from work and you're available, I guess we could try heading over to see him. Why so far to lease a horse?"
"Well, I will say no to the beach because I do not have anything to swim in, and I do not want to go home to get something to swim in." Mason replied. "But yeah, let's go get something to eat. I'm starving."

(Yay! Mick will have backup! And then be afraid of his backup cause they yelled at him when they first met him!)
"I was young. I was stupid. I was excited that a guy liked me," Jordan said. It was simple. But now she was wondering if Kyle really had liked her. Maybe in the beginning. Maybe she was too much for him to handle and that's why he picked up Kailey on the side. Jordan didn't know, but it wouldn't help to wonder about it. All she knew was that loser didn't deserve any more of my time. Her phone buzzed and she rolled her eyes when she saw it was another text for Kyle. She should really block his number or something. She'd already blocked him on all her social media.
"That's right, little bug, we're all gonna get ice cream and eat so much that we make ourselves sick," she said, getting it if the car. She inhaled the sweet scent of old fashioned fried food.
She waited for Kris to get Richie out of the car before making her way to the restaurant and pulling the door open for the two.
Her phone buzzed again but she had the intelligence to ignore it this time.
Oh, boy, this was going to be a long talk with Kris tonight.
"So, tell me, what's the Westbrook social scene like? Our your love life? My Kyle problems don't have to be the only romance we focus on today," she said with a laugh.

XD They'll only traumatize him the one time when they find out he knows Elita but after that they'll be like "  hey you two should date" and then there will be a silent war between her friends and Mason over Mick vs Jace Elita is very shy and anxious until she's comfortable with people. Then she's just a tiny ball of anger, sarcasm, obliviousness, and a little bit of childishness} |

Knowing Mason... that seems accurate. XD
If they are female, he probably tried dating them or slept with them at some point.
If they are male, he probably tried to either steal their girlfriends, or their sisters.
I wouldn't go with Mason's choice of dating, either. XD

"So what were or plans again?" Chase asked because I totally forgot and am too lazy to scroll up when I have replies to write. He got off of the hood of the car and opened his door.
"You look nice, by the way. Your ferret locked up?" he asked. He didn't remember seeing her ferret the night before, but the whole night was still a blur. Most of it, at least.
He'd called Arlo while Ash was inside and told him he'd be out a little longer than expected, which just resulted in more teasing from Arlo.
"By the way, apparently Arlo and Keilana spent forever looking for us last night. They wanted some cake but couldn't find us," he said with a shrug.
***
"I get hose comments every time I mention I'm still a Girl Scout. But yeah, we make our money off of people like you. Buy them for all year! You can freeze them! They're gone within a few weeks for most people. I wrote a paper about it," Mia said. Wow, she really could be a nerd sometimes. At least she'd gotten a good grade on the paper. With evidence she'd made up. Her teacher didn't need to know that.
"That's why they couldn't have kids. One would get Jace's niceness and Sophia's socialness and be the perfect little thing. One would get the other halves and be a mess. Poor kid," she mumbled, though the thought of Sophia having kids was funny on its own. As well as the idea of her and Jace being married.
Well, ya never know.
"Drake is surprisingly wise, actually. I was kinda freaking out about some stuff last night," she said. She might as well admit it, though she would avoid trash talking Adriane while Mason was around. "And Drake taught me that what I was worried about wasn't actually a big deal. So, yeah, he's pretty fun. You've got a good brother, Mason," she said. She wanted to say something about how Mason should cherish Drake, but figured he already knew that.
"None around here matched me good. Kid was like perfect. And he's pretty far away. But yeah, call me sometime if you're off of work. I can give you my number?" She offered, pulling or my phone.
"Also, should I go home and change or are you alright grabbing a bite when I look like this and you look like that?" she asked with a laugh.
(Mia is on Mick's side cause of Sophia but she's staying out of that whole thing so her support doesn't matter)

{Well, looking at my list of characters here, Elita had like two male friends and one or two female friends so Mason most likely wronged about all of them in some way. They definitely hate him.
Drake can come in like, right about now maybe?}
Kris noticed Jordan's phone going off, but chose to ignore it. She knew it was most likely Kyle, considering Jordan told her that stuff was going on with him, and she didn't want to push it lest she got angry. She was usually such a laid back person too. It was amazing that nobody at school knew she had quite the temper when provoked. It would probably be hilarious to see the looks on their faces.
"What love life?" she laughed. "The extent of my love life is that split second when my eyes meet a cute guy's eyes across the room during class. I don't think I plan on dating any time soon. Gotta study and get good grades, Jordan." She didn't know if she ever had anything more than a fleeting crush before. She was sure she had told Jordan before that she wanted to focus on school rather than grades, and honestly, she didn't know why anybody would like her. She worked hard to essentially be an unknown element in school, friendly enough to know people but distant enough to not be too noticeable. If someone did like her, she didn't know and she wouldn't know why anyway.
"Uh, I can't say I really know much about the 'social scene' at Westbrook," Kris admitted, looking thoughtful. "There are the popular people. Some of them can be jerks, but some of them are also pretty friendly. Then there are the people that aren't exactly popular, but everybody knows them because of one reason or another. I don't know anything more than that, sorry." She shrugged. It was obvious she paid little attention to anything around her most of the time.

hey you two should date" and then there will be a silent war between her friends and Mason over Mick vs Jace
