“I have to what?” Ashley seethed and Josh just grinned and crossed his arms.

“Do I really need to repeat it, Ash? If i win this, you have to go over to your crush,” He wiggled his brows a bit and Ashley seethed a bit as he glanced over at Sam who was busy with Hannah, laughing about something, that made Ashley frown a bit, “And ask them on a date. No backing out either.”

“And If I’m turned down?” She asked with a sour look on her face that Josh noticed and looked back over where his sister and Sam stood, he rolled his eyes and gave Ashley a blank stare that just screamed 'Idiot’. He knew that Hannah knew that Ashley liked Sam and that Sam liked Ashley back, and Hannah herself had her eyes set on someone else, Matt. It surprised him honestly but he said nothing, even though he felt terrible for just standing by and watching his sister fawn over a clearly gay man who was in love with Mike.

“You won’t be.”

“You sound so sure, Mr. Washington.” Ashley said with a bit of a sarcastic tone, grabbing a large beer and beginning to chug it, Josh could only smile as he grabbed his and began to down his as well, hoping that he would win just so he could finally see Ashley and Sam finally happy together. “Okay Josh. If I win,” Ashley cleared her throat and Josh stopped, looking at the shorter redhead with interest, “You have to go up with Chris and kiss him as if his. . . your? life depended on it. Don’t be shy with your tongue there, Joshy. You never are any other time.” Ashley smirked, hoping that she won but also hoping she would lose. She wasn’t so sure which one would be better. Her finally getting with her longtime crush, it’s been around for what seems like forever, or helping her best friend get with the vindictive and oblivious rich boy that he had been in love with for years and who obviously loves him but doesn’t do shit about it? She slightly frowns when she remembers how many times Josh has made Chris cry, but she knows he could make it up to him with a thousand more smiles in the future. Well, if they both get their damn act together and realize how much deeper their bromance actually goes, thinking of it that way made Ashley giggle a bit. Josh stared at her with wide eyes as soon she said it and blinked slowly, as if trying to process what she had just said and gasped, covering his mouth dramatically, making Ashley giggle some more.

“Kiss Chris? As in, my best buddy since the third grade and is most likely straight and doesn’t think of me in that way and probably never will, Christopher?” Ashley nodded and Josh gulped, looking over at the lightweight boy who was sprawled across the couch with his mouth wide open, a bit of drool dribbling out of the corner of his mouth as he snored. It wasn’t exactly the most attractive display, but nor was it appalling, a bit cute ya know. Next to the blonde sat Matt and Mike who were trying to avoid him as they conversed and slowly groped one another, probably thinking no one else would notice. Ashley shook her head and sighed, wishing she herself could do that with Samantha without anyone caring. She turned back to Josh to already be face to face with an empty glass. She scowled up at Josh who just grinned and watched as Ashley downed the rest of her glass. “Sorry. I couldn’t risk that Ash. He’s my best bud, I can’t fuck with what we already have. And I wanna see you with Sam by the end of the night.” He drawled and Ashley stood up, ignoring that the world seemed to turn over on itself and groaned, looked at the huge mug she had just drank and regretted it. It probably didn’t help she had already been drinking quite a bit even before the stupid bet came into play. She glanced at Josh and frowned a bit at what he said about not wanting to fuck up what he already had with Chris, if it was enough for him, so be it. But Ashley needed to show Sam how she felt, she had to. She just didn’t think it would be that night.

“Can’t I wait until morning to do this, when my head's clear and I don’t end up making a fool out of myself?” She whined and Josh shook his head, waving his hand to move her along as he turned to the keg and began to get more beer, humming as he did so. He turned to watch as Ashley made her way towards the blonde who was leaning against the wall, sipping at her drink as she watched everyone, Hannah had run off to who knows where to do something 'important’, by which she knew about the whole plan to get Ashley and Sam together as Josh had discussed it the day before with her and Beth,and left Samantha to her own accord. She looked at Ashley as the redhead came towards her and stood up a bit taller, a smile stretching across face and a small blush covering her cheeks. Ashley puffed out her own, assuming that Sam’s cheeks went pink from the alcohol she had been drinking. She stepped up next to the slightly taller and much more muscular female and cleared her throat, opening her mouth to say something but freezing when she saw the way Samantha was staring at her, the words died in her mouth and Ashley could only stare in admiration.

“You okay there, Ash?” Samantha asked, a small smirk on her face as she tilted her head at the bookworm who puffed her cheeks out once again in thought and opened her mouth to say what she needed to before a loud noise sounded behind her, causing her to jump and turn to look at what happened. There on the floor was a crying Chris half laying on Josh and going on about how much be adored Josh, that he has been too scared to ever tell him how he felt and wished the dark haired boy felt the same. Josh could only swallow thickly as he looked at the blonde, knowing his face must be so red at this point, he could feel the burn of it traveling up his neck. “I thought he was passed out for good.” Sam said, flabbergasted as she looked at the display and Ashley could only laugh as she watched Josh’s face turn a bright red and turn his body so he could hold Chris to him and tell him it would all be okay. Josh looked at Ash for a moment before having his attention taken back towards the nerd, almost getting lost in his light blue eyes as tears ran out of them, even crying they were still beautiful.

“Chris, Bro. You’re drunk, you need to calm down. Come’on.” Josh said, rubbing Chris’ cheeks gently and standing up, bringing the barely shorter male with him and leading him out. Before leaving the room Josh shot Ashley a stare that made her insides go cold and she slowly turned back to Sam who just blinked at her in curiosity before smiling.

“Well, that was certainly interesting.” Sam said and Ashley nodded, feeling her mouth go dry and licked her lips, not noticing when Sam watched the movement and proceeded to walk up closer to the girl, startling her, when she looked up at the blonde she realized how close she was, close enough that if she wanted to -and oh god she did- she could just lean in and kiss her. Her breath smelt like beer and mint, drawing Ashley in more until their lips were barely centimeters apart. “Ash. . . “ Sam whispered before pushing forward and capturing Ashley’s lips gently and seeming to test the waters before the redhead got tired of it and pushed into the kiss, deepening it and even moaning as she felt Sam's tongue prod into her mouth, exploring her mouth and massaging her her tongue with hers. Ashley felt a shiver go through her body and pulled away for air after a few minutes, staring up at Sam with half-lidded eyes and Sam only smiled, kissing the girl's cheek and leaning her forehead onto hers, sighing contently.

“Doyoumaybewannagoonadatewithme?” Ashley stuttered out quickly and Sam pulled back, eyes wide as she tried to figure out what the redhead had just said to her. She quirked her head in confusion and the shorter girl huffed as her cheeks went red, not really wanting to repeat what she had just said but knowing if she didnt the blonde would forever be confused, “Do you, Samantha Greene, want to go on a date with me? Maybe this friday?” She squeaked and watched as a smile spread across Sam’s face.

“You’re not too drunk, are you? Like, you’re going to remember this?” Sam asked and Ashley hummed in thought and Sam watched this, smiling slipping the longer Ashley thought about it until Ashley laughed and leaned on Sam.

“Of course I’m going to remember, silly. How could I forget THIS?” Ashley giggled and planted a small kiss on Sam’s nose. “Question is, are YOU going to remember this?” Sam rolled her eyes and brought Ashley in for another kiss.

“Ugh. This is so. . . cheesey.” Emily said from the dining room table where she was sitting.on the edge with Jessica sprawled out behind her, “First we have to watch as Mike and Matt fuck each other pretty much in the couch, then see Chris throw his love at Josh and is possibly either getting his the shit fucked out of him or is being put to sleep because Josh loves the nerd, and now we have to watch Sam and Ashley make out as they have liked eachother forever. I’m afraid where Beth and Hannah are though,” She shivered, “Oh god, Let’s hope that’s not a thing.” She finished, taking a gulp of her beer, scowling.

“Are all our friends gay?” Jessica asked, sitting up behind Emily and beginning to nibble at her ear.

“Of course.” Emily turned her head to look at Jessica, “Pretty sure we started it.”
