(Gabriel POV)
I woke up to my phone beeping I rolled over and looked at it, oh I had a text from Ash. I read it and it said she would be over in a few minutes. I groaned I forgot that she was coming over to change my tire I looked at the time it was 11:55 I jumped out my bed and took a quick shower while brushing my teeth. I went back into my room and threw on a bra and underwear. I went in my closet and grabbed a black tank top and black jean shorts I put my hair in a messy ponytail and put on my black converses. I just finished tying my shoes when I heard the doorbell ring I donât know why but I looked in the mirror to see if I looked ok. I ran downstairs and opened the door for her. I looked at her she was wearing a black cap with a white Nike symbol she also had on plain white t-shirt and a pair of black shorts with a white Nike symbol and matching running shoes.
âCome inâ I told her moving out the way she came in and looked around.
âYou want something to eatâ I asked leading her into the kitchen
âNope Iâm goodâ she said yawning and sitting down on the stool.
âYou donât have to change the tire if you donât want to ash I donât want to bother youâ I told her she shook her and smiled at me.
âNo I told you I was going to change it so Iâll change it I just need a secondâ she said yawning again and shaking her head slightly.
âWhy are you so tired anyway,â I asked leaning on the kitchen counter watching her she shrugged.
âI donât know I went to bed right when I got home last night but I kept waking up so I just played the Xbox until early this morning before I went back to bed then my stupid brothers woke me up again I think I only got a good three hours of sleepâ she said yawning again and putting her head down on the table. I looked at the clock it was only 12:20 and I was tired myself, I pushed my self off the counter.
âCome on Ash you can take a nap then you can change the tireâ I told her she lifted her head up and looked at me.
âNo I canât â she said shaking her head
âWhy do you have somewhere to beâ
âNo I donât want to hold you up if you have somewhere to go todayâ I looked at her and smiled.
âI have no where to go today and I refuse to shop with Jenna and them again plus Iâm still sleepy myself so come onâ I told her she stood up and followed me up stairs to my room.
(Ash POV)
I followed Gabriel upstairs to her room when I walked in I notice she had various posters around her wall from actors to singers and bands. Her walls were sky blue she had a king sized canopy bed with white sheets and a ton of pillows on it I turned and examined the rest of the room she hand a desk that was occupied my a laptop and various items she also had a dresser that seemed pretty organized overall she had a typical girls room.
âAsh are you finished looking at my roomâ She asked I turned to her and smirked at her and nodded.
âGood cause Iâm tiredâ She walked over to the door and closed it then and turned the lights out but it didnât really seeing as though it was the middle of the day. She made her way over to the shade and pulled them down making the room go dark oh need to get those in my room I took my hat, shoes and, socks off, sock are very uncomfortable to sleep in.
âAre you sure your fine with me sleeping in hereâ I asked sitting on the bed while she went in her closet and closed the door.
âYes Ashâ She said opening the door again she came out wearing white cotton PJ shorts and a yellow Tweety Bird tank top she was also putting .
âOk then, what side do you sleep on?â I asked her taking off my shirt leaving me in my beater. I folded it and sat it on her nightstand and I looked at her when she didnât answer she was just staring at me I smirked at her.
âEarth to Gabrielâ I said waving my hand in front of her face, she blushed shaking her head.
âHuh ssorry I zoned outâ she said stuttered I laughed
âI asked what side you sleep onâ
âDoesnât matter to meâ she said as she pulled the covers back and got in the bed I shrugged and walked to the other side of the bed and got in I pulled the cover over us and stared at the ceiling. After a few minutes I heard Gabrielâs light breathing I turned to see her sleeping I smiled down at her before I went to sleep.
~3 hours later~
I felt a vibration on my leg, I tried to move again but I couldnât I felt a weight on me, I opened my eyes slightly and looked down to see it was Gabriel she was cuddled up on me, her head was on my chest and her hand was holding onto my shirt by my stomach, I sighed I didnât want to wake her so I reached down and answered the phone.
âHelloâ I answered while yawning
âAsh is that you what are you doing over there, are you sleepingâ I rolled my eyes
âYes it is and who is thisâ
âIts Samanthaâ She replied back what the how did she get my number.
âAnd Jennaâ Jenna yelled in the phone
âHow did you get my number,â
âAsh I donât have your number this is Gabrielâs phoneâ I looked at the phone oh it is her phone.
âOhâ I said there was a long pause before she spoke again
âAsh can you put Gabriel on the phoneâ Samantha asked I looked down at Gabriel.
âUm sheâs sleeping right nowâ I told her
âWell then what are you doing over there thenâ Jenna asked suspiciously I could almost here her grinning through the phone.
âNone of your business, Iâll tell her you calledâ I was about to hang up the phone when I heard her yell something.
âWhatâ
âAsh its 3 o-clock the bon fire starts in three hoursâ She said I looked at my watch and swore.
âAsh be quiet and keep still Iâm trying to sleepâ I heard Gabriel mumble scooting closer to me I laughed slightly.
âAsh was that Gabrielâ Jenna said through the phone
âYeaâ
âWake her up thenâ I tapped Gabriel she groaned and mumbled something.
âGabriel wake up and get dressed we have to get ready for the bon fireâ I said shaking her slightly.
âFive more minutesâ she mumbled opening her eyes slightly before going back to sleep I put the phone down I tried to move my legs but they were tangled with hers.
âCâmon Gabby get up we have 3 hours to change your tire and get dressedâ she opened her eyes and looked at me then at herself she blushed an sat up I smirked at her.
âHow long were we sleepâ she asked stretching and moving out the bed.
âUm 4 hoursâ I got out the bed I was looking for my socks.
âGabby where are my socksâ I asked as I bent down on the floor and looked under the bed.
âIts here with your shirtâ She said I stood up and she threw me my shirt and socks I quickly put my shirt on and socks now I had to find my hat.
âGabby have you seen myâ
âRight here Ashâ She said interrupting me handing me my hat I smiled and put it on.
âGood now you get dressed put a swimsuit on underneath Iâll go change you tire and then we can go,â I told her she nodded and disappeared inside her closet. I left her bedroom and went back outside, I went to my truck and grabbed my toolbox before heading over to her car.
(Gabriel POV)
Ash just left the room, Iâm in my closet trying to find my bikinis yes I hang my bikinis up is that weird any way I cant figure out which one so I closed my eyes and grabbed the first one o touched I groaned I hate this one oh well I slip out of my clothes and put the bikini on and tied the strings. I then pulled on my jean short shorts Iâm going to the beach I mines well show some skin and tan while Iâm there I didnât bother putting on a shirt either because again Iâm going to a beach who needs a shirt. I went in the bathroom and took the braid out my hair I combed it down and left it wavy. I put a little bit of eyeliner on and some lip-gloss before heading down stairs to see if Ash was almost done.
I went outside to see Ash putting the tire back on.
âHey you almost doneâ I asked walking to her she turned and looked me up and down I raised my eyebrow at her as her eyes lingered on my legs before she looked back at my face.
â Ash did you just check me outâ I asked laughing she smirked and laughed she had grease smutches on her face and shirt not to mention her hands which were covered in grease.
âNope I was just looking at you,â She said going back to the tire she screwed the thing on the wheel back and cranked the car back down. She wiped her hands on a towel she had before turning back to me.
âSo you readyâ She asked throwing the towel on her shoulder
âYup lets goâ I told her she nodded and packed up her tool box thingy and put it into her truck I looked at her.
âAre you going to the beach like thatâ I asked she was a mess she laughed.
âNo Gabby Iâm going home to change then Iâm goingâ we got into her truck and headed to her house.
When we arrived at her house I looked down at what I was wearing and looked at Ashâs house and looked back down I regret not wearing a shirt now. I heard Ash laugh and I turned to her as she opened her door and walked to my side.
âCâmon they wont bother you,â she said pulling me out the car and towards the house.
(Ash POV)
âCâmon they wont bother you,â I told her as I pulled her out the car and toward my house who am I kidding they are going to bother her. I looked at her on more time she only had on jean short, which were short, and a hot pink bikini top with white polka dots on them.
âAsh focus and open the doorâ She said I looked back at her and laughed.
âYou keep distracting me,â I said opening the door she laughed slightly
âI guess Iâll take that as a complimentâ She said as we walked in the house we crept through the house until we got the stairs we almost made it up unnoticed until I heard a wolf whistle behind me I groaned and turned around to see Nathan and Jesse grinning and looking at Gabriel.
âNot today guysâ I told them they turned to me and grinned more.
âSo your going to the beach you mind if we tag along,â Nathan asked still looking at Gabriel who was blushing I glared at them.
âYes I do mind,â I said taking Gabrielâs hand and pulling her up stairs with me
âHey she can stay down here with us while you changeâ Jesse said
âNo thank I rather stay with Ashâ Gabriel said turning around to them they looked at me and glared I laughed at them as we continued walking up stairs to my room.
âI should be dressed in a few,â I told her as she sat on my bed bouncing slightly
âOk are you going to wear a bikini again,â she asked smirking I rolled my eyes at her
âShut up before I send you down stairs with my brothersâ She mumbled something and I laughed before going in the bathroom I washed my face and took off my clothes to take a quick shower. Once I was finished I put on my blue swim truck with white stitching followed by my sport bra and my blue and white swim shirt or surf shirt what ever they call it. I walked out my bathroom seeing Gabriel bouncing on my bed.
âGabby reallyâ I said she turned towards me and grinned sheepishly, stopped climbed off the bed. I towel my hair so it wouldnât drip anywhere before styling back into my faux hawk once I was satisfied I went back into my bathroom and grabbed two beach towels seeing as though she didnât bring anything with her. I went back into the room and put on a white Abercrombie and Fitch zip up hoodie.
âAlright Iâm readyâ I said I gave her a towel and we headed down stairs and out the door before Nathan and Jesse could see us.
âHow far is the beachâ Gabriel asked as I back out the drive and pulled onto the road.
âI donât know I never actually paid attention itâs a private beach that they rent out occasionally so I never usually go out there unless itâs a partyâ I said back peeking over at her.
âAsh eyes on the roadâ she said smirking
âMy eyes are on the roadâ I turned down another road and glance at the clock it was only 4 o-clock it didnât take that long for us to get ready and it shouldnât take that long for us to get to the beach the suns doesnât set until 7 or 8 and thatâs when we lite the fire and when the party actually starts to begin.
âAsh are we there yetâ I rolled my eyes and turned the radio up.
âAsh answer my questionâ She whined I glanced at her to see her grinning.
âDoes it look like we are there yetâ I asked she shook her head
âThen no we arenât thereâ she looked out the window and began singing to Adele rolling in the deep and let me tell this child can not sing I cringed as she hit a high note before turning off the radio.
âHey why you do thatâ She asked pouting.
âGabby no offense but you cant sing and I cant not drive with you singing like thatâ I told her sternly
âThen what am I supposed to doâ she asked
âI donât know go in my bag in the back you can play a game on my itouchâ she grabbed my bag and took my itouch out she was quiet for the rest of the ride from the sounds of it Iâm guessing she was playing angry birds.
(Gabriel POV)
Damn pigs wont die I keep missing them, I felt the car come to a stop but I didnât move I am determined to beat this game I heard Ash open my door.
âGabby we are here lets goâ She said
âWait let me finish this real fast,â I told her not looking at her she sighed.
âDidnât you want to tan, the sun is going to go down soonâ She said I didnât reply I almost done I have one more pig to go and I would I pulled my bird back and flung it towards the pig I never got to see what happened because Ash took it from me.
âGive it back Ashâ she shook her head as I reached for it
âNo you can have it on our way backâ She said putting it in the back seat I huffed and didnât move. She sighed
âCome onâ when I didnât respond she picked me up and tossed me over her shoulder.
âHey put me downâ I screamed causing people to turn towards us while I hit her back she laughed at me.
âNo Iâll but you down when we get to your friendsâ
âPlease put me down I everyone is staring at meâ I whined she laughed again I hit her on her back.
âAlrightâ she said putting me down I took off my sandals and curled my feet in the warm sand I looked around the beach taking in the sun. There were students everywhere either lingering around or playing volleyball or football. I spotted Aly and Samantha in the water while Amber and Jenna were sitting on beach towels, the boys were throwing a football around.
âAsh there they are,â I pointed to them and grabbed Ash hand taking her to them. When we reached they looked up at me and grinned I raised my eyebrow at them.
âWhatâ I asked as Ash laid the towel down next to them.
âNothingâ they said still grinning ok then I turned to Ash who looked hot in the hoddie she was wearing and not hot as in whoa your hot but hot as in sweating burning up hot.
âAsh can you please take that hoddie off your making me hot just looking at youâ I said
âGabby I tend to have that effect on girlsâ she said smirking I rolled my eyes at her.
âSeriously arenât you hot,â I asked it had to be ninety eight degrees out here she nodded.
âI was going to take it off anywayâ She replied unzipping it and pulling it off she folded it and put it on top of the towel and sat down. She still looked hot even in her surf shirt.
(Ash POV)
OK Iâm burning up and this shirt isnât helping, it sucks being a girl I watch Gabriel take off her shorts leaving her in her bikini. I looked her up and down I donât care if Iâm caught checking her out, the girl has a banging body she perfectly toned with a flat stomach petite waist and she has the perfect set of chest not to big and not to small then her legs are I donât know how to describe them, I feel like I have a leg fetish around her.
âAsh stop itâ she said frowning at me playfully I smirked
âStop whatâ I asked as my eyes strayed back to her legs.
âAshâ I looked back at her and patted the space next to me for her to sit she happily obliged and sat down.
âSo what have you two been up to all dayâ Jenna asked looking at me I pulled the collar of my shirt to let some air in.
âNothing I changed her tireâ I looked at the ocean where Samantha and Aly where playing in the waves I think they had on the same red bikini. I squinted to see if I could look at them clearly.
âAsh what are you doingâ I heard Gabriel say from beside me
âUm nothing just checking somethingâ I mumbled back looking at her she had a curious look on her face before she shrugged her shoulder and laid down to tan I guess. I stood up to get in the water.
âWhere you goingâ Gabriel asked
âTo cool down Iâm hotâ I told her beginning to walk off
âYou know you wouldnât be hot if you took off that surf shirtâ She replied back I turned to her and shook my head.
âYou just want to see my body donât you,â I said smirking she rolled her eyes.
âYes Ash I dying to see that irresistible hot body of yoursâ She said sarcastically I laughed before running into the water tackling Aly and Samantha.
(Gabriel POV)
I shook my head as Aly and Samantha jump on Ash and pushed her down into the water.
âSo tell us the detail,â Jenna said her and Amber sat up and looks at me. I looked at them confused
âDonât play dumb I heard everythingâ Jenna said excitedly I still had no idea what they were talking about.
â I donât know what youâre talking aboutâ Jenna looked at me and rolled her eyes.
âWe know you slept with her â She said whispering I looked at her shocked.
âNo I didnâtâ I told her shaking my head
âDonât lie to us so how was it,â She asked grinning at me I leaned back on my elbows
âNo Iâm serious we didnât do anything I donât like her that way and I wouldnât sleep with her anyways she a player and my friend plus I like Twinkies,â I told her she laughed
âGabriel we heard everything through the phoneâ I looked at her with my eyebrows raised.
âDo I really have to tell youâ I gave her a blank look she sighed
âGabriel have you seen my shirtâ she smirked, as my eyes grew wide
âThen there was Gabby get up and get dressedâ I groaned how the hell did they hear that conversation to make it worse they heard all the wrong parts.
âGuys yes we slept togetherâ I heard Jenna squeal in excitement and Amber gasp in shock I held my hand up stopping them from speaking.
âLet me finish we slept together and thatâs all we did was sleep nothing moreâ I said them slowly making sure they understood every word I said Jenna looked disappointed and Amber well she had a neutral face I shook me head and laid back down I have to get my tan before the sun goes down I pulled on my sunglasses and took in the sun ignoring Jenna mumbles and Ambers.
(Ash POV)
I was in the water talking to Aly and Samantha after they finished dunking me.
âAsh I heard you slept with Gabrielâ I looked at Samantha shocked.
âDonât use her Ash,â She said putting her hands on her hips and frowned at me.
âWhy would I use her and I didnât sleep with her anywayâ I mean we did sleep together but we didnât sleep, sleep together.
âThe what the hell were you doing over there that you both at get dress and you had to find your clothesâ I groaned I must have forgot to hang up the phone when I put it down to wake Gabriel up.
â We were both tired so we went to take a nap and I canât sleep in socks and I took my shirt off to get comfortable but I had a beater onâ ii explained she nodded
âOh just making sureâ she said making sure of what I looked towards the beach where Gabriel was basking in the sun she looked hot maybe I should cool her off I grinned and ran back on the beach and stood in front of her.
âGabby get in the water its feels greatâ I said she pulled off her glasses and looked at me
âNo I donât want to get wet could you move your blocking the sun and your dripping on meâ she stated putting her glasses back on.
âGabby whatâs the point in coming to the beach if your not going to get in the waterâ she sighed
âTo tan Ashâ I rolled my eyes well time for plan B I bent over and picked her up draping her over my shoulder ignoring her protest to put me down I laughed and ran towards the water with her screaming.
âAsh put me down I donât want to get wetâ she yelled I kept walking deeper till it reached my knee. I looked at her over my shoulder I grinned and she glared at me and tried to lift herself up.
âYou want to be put down rightâ I asked her eyes widen and she shook her no I laughed at her.
âAsh no please donât,â She begged as I slid her off my shoulder so I could she her face to face she was still glaring at me.
âI donât knowâ I said smirking as I started to walk further out in the water, she wrapped her legs around my waist as I went deeper.
âSeriously Ash I donât want to get wetâ She told me sternly I felt her legs tighten around my waist as the water reached my waist.
âIts just water have a little funâ I told her as she tried to climb higher up on me which seemed to be difficult for her but she did it her legs were now wrapped around my stomach I chuckled and she narrowed her eyes at me.
âAsh take me back to the shoreâ She said I think sheâs mad I sighed
âYouâre no funâ I said I turned around but I âaccidentlyâ slipped I grinned as we went under the water her legs fell from my body as we came back up.
âOops sorry I think I slipped on seaweedâ I said grinning at her as she glared back at me she looked like a wet kitten her hair was soaked and she had her arms crossed.
(Gabriel POV)
I yelped as my body hit the cold water as Ash and I went under I unwrapped my legs from her body and pushed my self back to the surface were Ash was grinning at me.
âOops sorry I think I slipped on seaweedâ She said really thatâs a stupid excuse I glared at her. Now my hair is wet and itâs going to take forever to dry I started walking back to the shore well I tried to walk back to the shore but the waves kept pushing me down every few steps I heard Ash laughing in the background I turned to her and glared only to be hit by another wave bringing me down under the water again I would have screamed in frustration but you cant really do that when your underneath water. I felt someone pull me back up I wiped the water out my eyes and turned to the person it was a guy with dirty blond hair and gray eyes he had sharp jaw line, I looked him over he had a six pack going on to with chest and arm muscles he was hot.
âYou know you canât fight the waves,â He said grinning slightly I saw him rake his eyes over my body before looking back at me.
âI wasnât trying to my stupid friend brought me out hereâ I said looking around him to see Ash still laughing at me I glared back at her stupid Ash.
âWell I would be happy to escort you to the shore if you donât mindâ He said smiling at me he had pearly white teeth too.
âYou donât have to I can get thereâ I said not wanting to bother him
âNo Iâm going over there anywayâ he said we started waddling to towards the shore.
âI never seen you around here beforeâ I said as we got to the shore
âMy sister and I just moved her yesterday and my cousin told me there was going to be a bonfire with most of the students tonight so I decided to come check it outâ He said I nodded
âSo youâre going to attend Patterson Highâ
âYup starting Monday me and my sis will be thereâ
âWell I have to go by the way my names Tyler,â he said holding his hand out I smiled and shook his hand.
âIâm Gabrielâ He nodded
âWell it was nice meeting you Gabriel maybe Iâll catch you on Mondayâ
âIâll keep an eye out for youâ I said as I walked off to where Amber Samantha and Jenna were now sitting.
âOh my god Gabriel who was that god like creature you were talking toâ Jenna asked I laughed at her.
âUm his name is Tyler him and his sister moved here yesterday and there coming to our school Mondayâ I said Jenna clapped her hands excitedly.
âI call dibs on him unless you want him Gabrielâ She the other laughed and I shook my head no while grabbing my towel to dry off.
âSo you and Ash seemed to be having a good time in the waterâ Samantha said smirking I looked over at her and shrugged.
âNo not really she dropped me in the water and laughed at every time I got knocked down by the waveâ I said frowning and sitting down with them
âDidnât look that way to me you guys looked very intimateâ Amber said quietly looking at Matt who was playing with Sean Alex and Tristan.
âNo we didnât we were arguingâ
âRight but from back here you didnât you had your legs wrapped around her waist will she held you I wish I was youâ Jenna said dreamily closing her eyes and smiling I laughed at her something is seriously wrong with her I looked back over and saw the guys coming over.
âLook its like bay watch with Ashâ Jenna whispered causing all of us to turn in Ash direction again she was running in our direction smirking as usual as some girls stopped to watch her she ran her hand through her hair and smirked at each one of them before she reached us I had to fight the urge to roll my eyes at her.
âSo you think your David HassleHoff nowâ I asked as she grabbed her towel and dried off her hair.
âOnly if you want me to be,â She said grinning at me I rolled my eyes at her this time and she laughed as she sat down next to putting her arm around my shoulder.
âAsh get off of me youâre wet and I just got dryâ I said flinging her arm off of me.
âIts not me who is wet itâs the shirtâ she said pointing to it
âWell no one told you to wear a shirt you could have wore a bikini,â I said smiling as her face scrunched up in disgust.
âNo I rather wear my surf shirtâ she mumbled pulling the her shirt so that it wasnât sticking to her.
âWhen does the bon fire start,â I asked no one in particular
âWhen the sun goes down,â Matt said in a duh tone sitting next to Amber who leaned on him. I looked at my cell for the time it was only 6 o-clock weâve only been here for an hour or 2. I feel something wet against my skin I turned only to find it was Ash again I groaned.
âAsh reallyâ She looked at me and shrugged.
âWhat Iâm trying to get dryâ
âWell your getting me wet in the process take the damn shirt offâ I told her she smirked
âI didnât realize you were a get to the point type of girlâ She said winking at me the others laughed while I stared at her confused before I finally understood what she just said I blushed and smacked her while she laughed.
âShut upâ I told her
âIâm just saying, you donât have to hit meâ She mumbled before standing up and taking off her shirt leaving her in a black sports bra sometimes I forget that sheâs a girl, I looked at her hey she has a little bit of back muscles you canât see them that much unless youâre actually looking. She turned around and hung her shirt up behinds Aly beach chair before she turned back to me and sat down laying back I glanced down at her as she lay there and closed her eyes. I never got to see her up close without the shirt but I am impressed it looked better up close than it does from afar I saw a droplet of water glisten down her abs I had the urge to wipe it off would that be weird no get those thought out your head I shook my head and let out a sigh before laying back next to Ash the others were talking about the bonfire that would be happening in a couple of hours I think the DJ and other people were setting up.
âSo you finally decided to stop checking me outâ Ash mumble putting her hand behind her head and bending one of he legs up so that her feet were flat on the towel I could feel my cheeks heat up as I turned to her she had one eye open looking at me smirking.
âI wasnât checking you out,â I told her she just laughed slightly
âItâs ok Gabby I know Iâm irresistible as you put it early and I know you want this donât deny itâ She said jokingly pointing her hands at her body I grinned at her before rolling on my side to face her.
âYour right Ashâ I said as she nodded in agreement I took my hand and traced her abs whoa its feels like someone chiseled them to perfection, I can feel each and every pack perfectly, her face looked shocked as I leaned towards her stopping at her ear.
âI canât deny it anymore Ashâ I whispered huskily in her ear I felt her stomach tighten defying her even more as I continued to trace her abs.
âI want your hot irresistible body,â I moaned in her ear I heard her breath hitch as my hand made it way to her thigh and rested there.
âGGabbyâ she stuttered I grinned and continued what I was saying.
âBut you know what Ash I would be lying to you if I said thatâ I whispered back into her ear I leaned away from her, took my hand off of her and looked at her faced, her eyes looked glazed and shocked I patted her cheek causing her to look at me her gaze shifted down to my lips as I began to talk again.
âGet over yourself Ash,â I said and giving her a final pat on her cheek before lying back down laughing at her opened mouth.
âYou better close your mouth before flies get inâ I told her she closed her mouth and groaned at me as I laughed.
(Ash POV)
To say I was shocked is an understatement when I felt her soft hands trace my stomach my breath hitched and my stomach tighten a little, I have to say this is the one time Iâm glad to be a girl because if I wasnât I pretty sure I would have a tent sticking up in my pants right now, then when I felt her hand make her way to my thigh I think thatâs what did it for me now I was hot and bothered. I groaned as she laughed and told me to close my mouth.
âFucking tease,â I mumbled under my breath I guess she heard me cause she smack me up beside my head I sat up and glared down at her and she smirked.
âWhat are you guys doingâ Sean asked looking over at us
âNothingâ I grumbled Gabriel laughed again
âWhat crawled up your buttâ I heard him say I looked at Gabriel
âWhy donât you ask her,â I told him smirking as she blushed and I shook my head at her, Sean looked between the two of us confused but didnât ask anymore questions. I saw Rachel running over to me in a yellow cut out bathing suit. Gabriel groaned beside me I looked at her with my eyebrows raised and she rolled her eyes.
âAsh can I talk to you for a secâ she asked I felt everyoneâs eyes on me as I nodded and put my surf shirt back on before following her up to the boardwalk where people where mingling we sat at a table away from people.
âAsh I need a favorâ She said I looked at her skeptically
âWhat is it,â
âI need you to go to my fathers business dinner with me in 3 weeksâ She said
âI donât knowâ
âPlease Ash I really need you there â She begged I sighed
âWhy cant you take someone else like a boy Iâm sure your father wouldnât be happy if you took meâ I said I didnât want to go I hate wearing suits.
âBecause I want to come out to him,â she mumbled I looked at her surprised
âI donât think I can help you with thatâ I know I couldnât help her with that even when I came out to my dad he didnât take it good at first and I didnât respond well either she looked at me with a pleading expression.
â Please Ash you owe me a favor anywayâ She said oh I did owe her a favor because of the restaurant bet I had with my brothers I sighed and stood up.
âI donât think you should do it at a business gatheringâ I told her she stood up
âThatâs the only way he will listen I tried to tell him before but he brushed it off and told me to grow upâ I looked at her understanding
âFine Iâll do itâ I said she smiled and hugged me.
âThanks Ash I really appreciate Itâ She kissed me on my cheeks and ran back to the beach what have I gotten myself into I sighed and looked in the shop I was in front of it was and ice cream shop I went in and ordered so ice cream before heading back to the beach to Gabriel.
(Gabriel POV)
I wonder what their talking about I watched as Rachel hugged Ash and kissed her on the cheek I turned away not wanting to see them and stared out at the ocean the sun was about to set.
âJealous Gabrielâ Aly said I shook my head no
âWhy would I be we are just friendsâ I said not turning towards her
âYou and Ash are so blindâ I heard her mumble wonder what sheâs talking about Ash came over to me and squatted down in front of me blocking my view. I looked up at her to see her smiling at me she handed me a bag.
âI got your favorite Our Strawberry Blondeâ I grinned at her and opened the bag pulling it out yay and she got the biggest size. I was opening the top but she stop me I looked at her confused she grinned at me and took it out my hands.
âAsh what are you doingâ I asked I really want my ice cream.
âCome on put your shorts onâ She said standing up and grabbing her hoodie putting it on. She held out her hand and I took it and she pulled me up. I quickly pulled on my shorts on.
âWhere are you two goingâ Sean asked eyeing both of us. The girls grinned at us and I looked back at them with the âwhat the hellâ look
âNone of your business â Ash replied taking my hand and pulling me in the opposite direction.
âWhere are we going Ashâ I Asked matching her pace so she wasnât pulling me she grinned down at me.
âItâs a surprise I want to show you somethingâ We were walking further down the beach where there were only a few people hanging around.
âAsh the curiosity is killing meâ I told her we reached the end of the beach where there were a bunch of rocks she started to them. I looked at her like she was crazy Iâm a terrible climber I have terrible coordination.
âAsh I canât climbâ I told her she looked back down at me and frowned.
âGabby itâs only a few more steps then you donât have to climb from hereâ she said
âWhat if I fall,â I asked looking at the rocks with caution
âCâmon were going to miss it and I wont let youâ She reached her hand down and I grabbed she hauled me up the first couple of rocks and grabbed my waist every time I would slip.
âWe are almost there then we can walk from there and no climbingâ She reached a flat surface in between the rugged rocks there was a little almost invisible path leading toward the back in between a couple of bushes and medium sized trees.
âSee now we just walkâ She took my hand and guided me in between the paths I looked around as we walked through them it was like a mini forest you could still see the beach from here through the trees she came to a stop and I bumped into her.
âOuchâ I rubbed my nose and looked at Ash who shook her head at me before she pulled me between to trees opening the branches as we walked through. I looked around again this time there was a small wooden path we followed it till it stop In front of a big boulder.
âAsh I think this is the end of the pathâ
âNo its notâ she said getting on her knees crawling through a small opening disappearing on the other side.
âCâmon Gabby we have only a few minutes hurry upâ she yelled from the other side I sighed and got on my knees crawling through the small space when I got to the other side Ash was there grinning holding her hand out I took it and she pulled me back up. I donât see whatâs the point of this she was still grinning when she moved out my way.
I gasp it was beautiful up here I walked further out to the end we where on a cliff top that gave the perfect view of the ocean and the sunset that was starting I looked down to see that the beach wasnât down there only sharp rock I turned to the left and saw the beach and the many people that were on it. Ash came up behind be.
âIts beautiful isnât it,â She said grinning as I looked away from the view I nodded my head.
âHow in the world did you find this,â I asked I mean any normal person would not have found this.
âI donât know I found it my freshman year I was just walking around and I found it I think there used to be a path that lead out here from the beach but it must have been a storm or something that blocked everyone from coming back up hereâ She said sitting down she patted the spot next to her and I sat down as she gave me my ice cream.
We sat and ate in silence watching the sun go down it was so beautiful the colors were mixing together creating and orange hue I leaned my head on Ash shoulders enjoying the breathtaking view. I finished eating my Ice cream and put the cut down yum cant beat strawberry ice cream I let out of breath and patted my stomach. Ash looked down at me and laughed I frowned at her.
âWhatâ I asked she still laughed and I glared at her.
âYou have a ice cream all over your faceâ she said I blushed I put my hand on my face trying to wipe off the ice cream I guess it wasnât working because Ash was still laughing at me I narrowed my eyes at her as she wipe a tear.
âHere let me do itâ She reached over and wiped the ice cream of the side of my face laughing slightly as she reached my nose and wipe some off.
âIs it gone,â I asked she shook her head and leaned in her hands touched the corner of my mouth I looked at her as she wipe it off and didnât move her hand I stared at her as she glance down at my lips I swear my heart stopped I think Iâm having a heart attack she leaned in closer without realizing it I leaned into her touch bringing us closer together we were only few centimeter apart when the sound of Maroon 5 came blasting out of nowhere breaking us apart I leaned back as Ash answered her phone. My heart was beating fast I felt flutters in my stomach as I blushed; and looked over at Ash as she hung up the phone she smiled slightly at me and stood up.
âCâmon that was Sean the others are wondering were we are the party startedâ She said putting our trash in a bag and holding out her hand for me to take I grabbed it and pulled my self up. I looked at the beach it was dark already but I could see a bright fire glowing in the dark.
(Ash POV)
We finally made it down to the beach I was holding Gabriel hand as usual as we made our way to the bonfire where people were either dancing to the music drinking beer or hanging around talking. I cant believe I almost kissed her I feel so stupid now, I canât and donât want to ruin this friendship we have I looked down at her as we got closer to the others who were sitting around the bonfire talking. Matt had is arm wrapped around Amber waist while she had her head leaning on his chest next to them were Sean and Aly who were practically eating each others face out I grimaced at them before looking at Alex and Jenna who were talking animatedly they spotted us and waved us over.
âWhere the hell did you two disappear to,â Alex asked I looked at him and shrugged while Gabriel let go of my hand and sat down next to Jenna on the logs they set up.
âIâm going to get something to drink you want anythingâ I asked Gabriel
âAnything is fineâ she replied I walked off to get myself a beer and Gabriel some juice or soda Iâm definitely not going to get her drunk. I grabbed a bud out a cooler and went in the other coolers looking for something else I was on the last cooler non of them had anything non alcoholic there were a few wine coolers but I prefer if she had something else. I went through the last cooler finding it filled with juice and soda I picked up a Pepsi and Apple juice. I closed it and went back to them Sean and Aly finally decided to stop their heavy make out session. I sat down next to Gabriel handing her both the Pepsi and the Apple juice she looked at me funny while I opened my beer and to a sip from it.
âWhy do you get the alcohol and I donâtâ She asked I looked at her and rolled my eyes.
â Do you want some,â I ask handing her my beer she took and took a swig from it grimacing I laughed at her and took it back.
âNow drink your juice and be happyâ she frowned opening her Apple juice taking little sips from it.
âSo Ash where did you take my little friendâ Samantha asked sitting next to me like I was going to tell her I shook my head.
âSomewhere and everywhere between nowhereâ I replied smirking at her as she glared at me she looked at Gabriel hoping to get an answer.
âWhat she saidâ she said smirking right along with me Samantha looked between the two of us and rolled her eyes before getting up and leaving.
I finished my bottle of beer and stood up
âWhere you goingâ Gabriel asked I smiled
âTo dance it is a partyâ I said turning around walking away I picked a random person to dance with for a while until she started touching me then I moved away and only to run into Gabriel who was also dancing with some random guy I smirked and tapped the guy on his shoulder he looked back at me and I pointed towards Gabriel he nodded and moved to the next girl I quickly took his spot without Gabriel noticing she really needed to put a shirt on someone could easily untie her bikini from behind.
(Gabriel POV)
Ash did have a point it is a party so why not dance.
âGuys Iâm going to go danceâ I told them they nodded as I walked away to dance I was dancing and some random guy came up behind be and started dancing I didnât care as long as he didnât try anything I was getting into the song last Friday night when I felt some ones hands grab me by my waist pulling me back into their chest. I stopped dancing and turned to them ready to curse them out. I saw Ash grinning down at me I smacked her and she laughed.
âAsh donât do that again,â I said scolding her
âYou need to put a shirt on someone can easily take off your swimsuit topâ She told me frowning at me.
âNo they wont I tied it tightâ I said she shook her head and snaked her arm around my neck tugging the tie making my top fall slightly I quickly pulled it back up before it fell I glared at Ash.
âWas that necessaryâ I asked she nodded
âYea I proved my point now turn around so I can retie itâ I turned around still frowning if my hands werenât occupied I would have slapped her I felt her fingers glide across my back as she retied it causing me to shiver slightly.
âFinishedâ She said I turned around watching as she took off her hoddie and handed it to me.
âHereâ I took it out of her hand and put it on and zipped it up.
âThanksâ
âNo problem now lets dance our asses offâ She said smiling as I laughed for the rest of the night we goofed off never dancing seriously.
1:00 am
I waved goodbye to all my friends as everyone went there separate ways the beach was now empty there was evidence of a party the DJ left awhile ago but that didnât stop anyone from having fun as the hours ticked down Ash had suggested us too all go before she got to tired to drive.
âSo did you have funâ She asked while stopping in my drive way.
âYes I had a great time it was better than the last partyâ I said jokingly she laughed slightly.
âI think every party would have been better than that oneâ She said I nodded my head in agreement remembering the disaster of the last party I went to I turned to Ash again.
âThanks for the ride and everything elseâ She smirked at me
âAnd as always no problemâ I laughed at her and kissed her on the cheek before getting out the car.
âBye Ashâ I said she grinned at me
âBye Gabbyâ She replied back I closed the door and smiled making my in the house I went up stairs and changed into my PJâs before laying down in my bed I closed my eyes and turned on my side thinking about all the fun I had today I was just about to fall asleep when I opened my eyes in shock I just realized I almost kissed my best friend not to mention it was a girl.
