Trouble
Rad
Chapter 24
Marilynn
I sat on a lounge chair watching my friends play with other people in the neighborhood. Desire was sitting next to me, her and I were laughing, cheering, having a great time. “Ashton’s really good.” Desire complimented.
“He use to play street hockey back where he lived.” I mentioned. Ashton told while we on our way here. Even by looking at him from a far you could he’s a pretty cool guy, why does Nathan despise him so much. Oh shit, Nathan. I was supposed come over today to see why he’s been so moody.
“Hey, have you talked to Nathan? I haven’t seen him since he left lunch.” Desire said. She’s known Nathan longer than I have so of course she’d naturally be worried about him. “I literally was just thinking about him, dude.” I told her.
“He’s been acting up, Nate’s always snappy and picking fights with his parents.” She spoke softly; I was worried for him too. “Nathan’s always been a pain in the ass but it’s gotten worse. We keep making excuses for him and we need to stop.” I said sadly.
“A hundred percent agreed that fucker always depends on us. It’s time we back out and teach him a lesson. I’m tired of him running to us every time he has a problem that mummy and daddy can’t solve.” Desire complained.
“I know we all make bad choices but I’m afraid his are going to be worse.” I admitted. After all, Nathan was someone that helped get through a lot, I can’t let him go through stuff alone. “Let’s drop the Nathan subject and enjoy the game.” Desire smirked. “You’re right, now gimme some more licorice.” I chuckled.

After a few hours, the game ended and it was time for people to go back home. “You guys did great.” I gave them a big smile. It was true though; they genuinely looked like they were having fun, no matter what team they were on. “Tell that to Desire, she doesn’t its sex worthy.” Adrian laughed. I couldn’t help but roll my eyes. “Horny pig!” Desire smacked him on his chest with the back of her hand.
“Just kidding, baby. I love you.” He wrapped his arm around Desire, placing a sweet kiss on her forehead. I was jealous. “You guys suck.” I threw a licorice at them. They both stuck the middle finger at me, well then.
“M, care for some McDonald’s?” Ashton blushed.
“Did you just call me, M?” I gave an awkward smile.
“I’m sorry was that wrong? I didn’t mean to offend-“
“I like it. No one’s called me that, its cool.” I laughed.
“I thought I messed up, you’re the first friend I made today.” Ashton was worried but he didn’t need to be. “I’ll start calling you Ash, sounds thug, just playing.” I winked.
Smith jogged to us after he was done talking to a few of the people that came to watch them play. “What’d I miss?” He seemed lost. “Looks like Mary and Ashton have new nicknames.” Desire grinned at us. “Rad, that’s how you know its love.” Smith replied.
“Oh shut up Smith. We’re heading for some Mickey D’s, lates.” I threw the peace sign at them then started to walk away. “Thank you for inviting me, I had loads of fun.” Ashton waved bye at them before jogging to catch up with me.
“I’m really glad you came.” Ashton said to me.
“I had fun, Ash. Beside I’m really craving a burger.” I responded.
“Thanks for being my friend even though your best friend really hates me.”
“I can be a real bitch but only when someone gives me a reason, you didn’t give me a reason.” I stared up at him. “In fact I should be thanking you, Ash you came at the right time, perfect almost.” I meant what I said.
“How?” He seemed confused.
“I have this friend and he’s cool but he admitted that I’m practically a make out toy and today I found out that he’s going to be gone for a week maybe longer. I’ve been trying to contact him but nope nothing.” I opened up to the boy that I barley met today. “Am I a distraction?” He asked me.
“I feel like in a way, yes. Yet in a way no, you seem so easy to talk to and I can’t help but think that you’re the ideal friend. My other best friend, he was almost like a brother to me, well he left to pursue a music career and we haven’t spoken with one another.” I said completely honest.
“You feel alone, right? You’re surrounded by many people but that doesn’t help how lonely you feel on the inside.” Ashton stated; he was beginning to understand me. “That’s exactly how I feel.” I sighed.
“I’m here for you.” Ash wrapped his arm around my waist as we continued to walk to McDonald’s, I can honestly say that I’ve never felt better. That brought harmony to me.
