(ASH POV)
I woke up the next day feeling groggy my chest felt tight and my hands were killing. I rolled over feeling dampness on my bed I sighed looked at the clock it was 3 in the afternoon and I havenât gotten out of the bed all day I didnât feel like it either Rachel and Sarah both came downstairs to get me earlier but I didnât want to get up I didnât feel like getting up I just wanted to drown in my self pity I know I sound like a wimp but you would to if you just got rejected by a girl you like I sighed remember last night Iâm such and idiot for doing that I thought everything was going fine because she kissed me back but I guess she realized that she didnât like me the way I did I guess the worst thing for me to have done was to fall head over heals with a straight girl. I sat up my sheets were wet from last nights rain I didnât bother to change because I didnât feel up to it. My stomach growled as I stood up I frowned at it and went to the bathroom I looked in the mirror my face was pale I took off my damp clothes and flung them to the floor before I took a shower I let the warm water run over my body I felt a sting coming from both of my hands as I bathe I looked at them they were both swollen and covered in dried blood this must be from last night I turned the shower off I didnât stay in there long I didnât want to I grabbed some of my sweatpants and put them on before I headed upstairs for something to eat I opened the basement door and walked to the kitchen my whole family and Rachel were sitting at the island chatting happily amongst themselves. When I entered everyone stop talking and turned to me I didnât acknowledge them I just went in the cabinet and grabbed the first aid kit and my cereal before I opened the fridge and took the milk out I went back downstairs to the room when I realized I forgot my bowl and spoon I sighed and went back to the kitchen it grew quiet again as I grabbed a bowl and spoon.
âAsh is everything okayâ My father asked glancing at me from behind is paper I looked at him do I look okay I wanted to say instead.
âJust Peachyâ I mumbled and walked out taking the bowl downstairs with me ate one bowl of cereal before I started bandaging my hands up I put the ointment on them before I wrapped them up when I finished I just sat there staring at the wall I missed her already and it hasnât even been a full 24 hours yet. I stood you know what Iâm Ash Davis the Ash Davis I will not sit around and mope all day, I refused to mope around all day. I stood up and threw on my shirt and slipped on my shoes. I donât need her I can go on with out her I grabbed my keys and headed out the front door. Iâm going to find a girl and make her mines tonight.
(Gabriel POV)
Iâve been ignoring everyoneâs call this weekend I needed time to figure everything out. Itâs the middle of the week me and Ash still havenât talked well I didnât show up for class Monday, I didnât have the guts to face her and now Iâm siting in first period the others tried to ask me what happened but I said nothing I was still so confused I thought about what Samantha said to me in the car Friday go with what my heart wants my hearts confused along with my head I touched my lips remembering the feelings I had as we kissed outside then I thought about Rachel and Ash what was going on between those two, I donât know I just donât know. I looked down as Ash walked in and sat down neither us said anything to each other we just sat there awkwardly our friends looked at us weird not saying anything I sighed to myself my life is so complicated Iâm confused and mad at myself for what happened. I should have stayed and we could have talked it out but no I ran home like a little baby leaving her there. It hurt me to see the pain and regret that flashed through her eyes when I pushed her away and ran The teacher came in and started the lesson up I didnât pay attention to it I was still in my own little world thinking about my jumbled up feelings for her.
The day went past extremely slow it was only lunch time I missed Ash so much throughout the day I miss seeing her outside my classes grinning at me and how she walked to the all of my classes. I dragged my feet into the cafeteria my friends were all sitting at the table talking amongst themselves I saw Ash pay for her lunch and go towards the table as I went to the lunch line I grabbed the usual chicken nuggets I got to the front and the lady rung me only them did I realize that I forgot my money I sighed and put the food down I guess Iâm on my own today since Ash I werenât talking.
âGo ahead and take it someone already paid for youâ The lady said nodding her head towards Ash I nodded and picked up my tray and walked to the table the only seat left was the one by Ash I sat down quietly and ate my lunch in silence like Ash.
âWell me and Matt have to go somewhereâ Amber said Matt looked at her and nodded they both stood up and left.
âYea I have to get something from the teacher can you walk me Seanâ Aly said Sean quickly stood up and they left leaving only Alex, Jenna, Tyler, Tristan, and Samantha I looked at them confused why was everyone leaving I looked at Samantha who was smirking Tristan stood up to followed by Jenna right behind him. Alex looked like he was thinking about something when he smiled.
âI have to pee Iâll be backâ He said quickly jumping out his seat oh god I know what there doing Iâm not ready to have this conversation yet I looked at tyler next to me her grinned sheepishly.
âSorry but I have an um errand to run catch you guys laterâ He said and ran off I looked at Samantha desperately she shook her head.
âLook you two been like this all week, Iâm tired of both of you moping around so fix this nowâ She said sternly standing up I gave her one last pleading look she looked at me and walked away leaving me and Ash alone sitting awkwardly at the table. I was pushing my peas around my plate waiting for the bell to ring. We sat in silence for a few minutes before she finally spoke.
âGabriel Iâm sorry I shouldnât have forced myself on you that wayâ She said quietly I looked at her to see she was looking at me it looked like we were both in the same state tired and lifeless our eyes no longer had the sparks that they once had.
âAsh itâs ok I should have stayed and talked instead of runningâ I said she nodded
âWe can forget about it if you want to act like it never happenedâ She said I thought about it did I want to forget about the kiss yes my mind yelled at me but my heart told me no.
âNo I donât want to forget about it,â I mumbled under my breath not believing the words that just came out my mouth involuntarily. I didnât want to forget or pretend it never happened.
âDoes that meanâ She began looking at me with shock I shook my head.
âNo it doesnât, well I donât think it does, to tell you the truth Iâm completely and utterly confused right nowâ I said I didnât know if I was just attracted to her or if I was sexually attracted to her she nodded thinking
âI understand if you donât want to hang out anymore until you figure it out,â she said
âNo I still want to hang out with you Ashâ I said she looked at me again with shocked I think Iâm shocked too, words were spilling out of my mouth its like my mouth took over for me and disconnected from my brain.
âReallyâ She asked I nodded, again with the involuntary movements
âYes, like I said Iâm confused and I honestly donât know what to think or do, Ash I need you to help me figure this out,â I said blushing slightly at that she gave me a soft smile.
âSo thereâs a slight chance that â She didnât have to finish the sentence I knew what she was going say I cut her off.
âYeaâ I said looking down blushing she lifted my chin up this is so embarrassing.
âHey donât be embarrassed if it helps we can keep this between me and you until you figure everything outâ She said smiling at me I nodded my head smiling at her I hope this helps me figure some things out.
(Ash POV)
Okay so you know how I said I wasnât going to sit in the house moping and how I was going to find a girl and make her mines yeah well after I left the house and droved around I was pumped and determined but somehow I ended up in Samanthaâs bedroom balling my eyes out in frustration it wasnât a pretty sight I know pathetic right but she had let me talk and then she told me to wait for her just like Tristan told me after we finished talking I went to fix my bike to get my mind off of everything my family including Rachel didnât bother me for the rest of the weekend. Gabriel and I havenât talked since Friday and it was now Wednesday weâve been passing each other in the hall way day my day and without speaking to each other ever time I passed we either looked the opposite direction or she would look down and continue walking.
So at lunch I didnât see Gabriel at first so I went and paid for my lunch and told the lady that I was paying for Gabrielâs lunch to we may not be talking right now but I still care for her and I know for a fact that she didnât bring her lunch money I cant have her hungry. I walked out the line just as Gabriel came in the cafeteria we walked passed each other not brothering to acknowledge one another I reached the table and sat down my friends looked at me but I didnât say anything to them I just picked up my food and ate it the table was quiet as Gabriel sat down no one said anything until they all dismissed themselves I rolled my eyes at them I know what they were doing and Gabriel was freaking out next to me. They all left leaving Samantha behind who told us to fix it. So we sat there in silence I guess Iâll be the first one to speak I took a breath.
âGabriel Iâm sorry I shouldnât have forced myself on you that wayâ I started off quietly
I was looking at her but she still had her head facing down I wanted to see her face.
âAsh itâs ok I should have stayed and talked instead of running awayâ she said looking up at me she looked tired I nodded before saying the words I didnât want to say
âWe can forget about it if you want to, act like it never happenedâ I said did I want to forget no but if forgetting meant we could be friends again them I would be fine with it.
âNo I donât want to forget about it,â she mumbled under her breath quietly I didnât think that I heard her right.
âDoes that meanâ I looked at her shocked not finishing my sentence does that mean she likes me back.
âNo it doesnât,â She paused as my heart dropped but them she started talking again âwell I donât think it does, to tell you the truth Iâm completely and utterly confused right nowâ she said I nodded well I guess I should give her, her space until she figures this out
âI understand if you donât want to hang out anymore until you figure it out,â I said I didnât mind if it helped her.
âNo I still want to hang out with you Ashâ she said I looked at her again with disbelief I think she was shocked by the word she said herself
âReallyâ I asked she nodded again
âYes, like I said Iâm confused and I honestly donât know what to think or do, Ash I need you to help me figure this out,â she said blushing slightly I gave her a soft smile did I just here what I thought I just heard
âSo thereâs a slight chance that â I said she cut me before I could finish
âYeaâ she said looking down blushing there was a slight chance that she liked me like I did I lifted her chin up she was embarrassed.
âHey donât be embarrassed if it helps we can keep this between you and I until you figure everything outâ I said smiling at her she nodded.
âAsh so how exactly is this going to work,â She mumbled I shrugged I didnât really know how I was going to help her I had some ideas but I doubt she agree with them.
âI donât knowâ I said she nodded
âSo does this mean were still friends with a little extraâ She said quietly so she was thinking the same thing I was thinking I looked down at her, her entire face was beet Red.
âI guess if thatâs what you want for now to help then weâll be little bit more,â I said using her term a little bit more instead of friends with benefits I could tell she was still embarrassed by this. She looked back up to me and I gave her a smirk she blushed again and the bell rung. We both stood up and walked to our next class together she was lost in her thought as we went to the gym she was still bright red I stopped grabbed her arm.
âGabby stop thinking for a second â I said she nodded her head I waited for her cheeks to die down I opened the gym door.
âCâmonâ I said we entered the gym we were little late but the teacher didnât say anything as we walked passed him and up the bleachers Aly looked at us worried as we sat down.
âPlease tell me you guys are talking now,â She asked we both nodded she sighed in relief.
âGood I thought you guys were going to start another great depressionâ She said leaning back against the wall wiping imaginary sweat off her forehead I rolled my eyes at her exaggeration.
âIt wasnât that badâ Gabriel mumbled
âWasnât, bad both of you were walking around like zombies what the hell were you to fighting about anywayâ Aly asked eyeing the both of us I smirked at her.
âNothing just a misunderstanding that we came to an agreement on right Gabbyâ I said smirking down at her, her cheeks turned a barely noticeable shade of pink.
âYea sureâ she muttered under her breath turning away from me I laughed to my self and looked at Aly she was giving us a funny look before she shrugged and turned back to the teacher he was talking about a project that we would have over Thanksgiving break. I smiled to myself thinking about the lunch conversation even though me and Gabby werenât in a real relationship It was still better than nothing I didnât mind being friends with benefits or with a little extra like she said I would help her figure this out I was going to take the slight chance that I had to my advantage, I would make her fall in love with me.
(Gabriel POV)
I canât believe I just suggested that we be friends with a little bit more I mean I think this will help me figure things out faster but I feel like if It turns out that I donât feel anything towards except the sexual attraction that I felt when we kissed then I would feel bad in the end because I was leading her on I looked up at Ash as we walked down the hall way things seemed to go back to normal after lunch and gym. Ash looked down at me and smirked I felt my face heat up again Iâm so embarrassed I hope she doesnât think Iâm a slut or anything.
âGabby chill out okâ She said how can I chill out when I suggested we basically become friends with benefits what if someone finds out oh no I just thought of this now she sighed and grabbed me by my arm and pulled me into an empty classroom .
âSeriously Gabby everything is going to be the same just a little extra like you saidâ She said as I sat down in the desk fiddling with my skirt.
âWhat if someone finds out Ash then theyâll think Iâm a slut and then Iâll beâ my rambling was cut off by her kissing me I stiffened at the suddenness before I relaxed and kissed her back forgetting everything I was saying I felt that tingling feeling I felt when we first kissed I like this I know she was trying to deepen the kiss because I felt her suck on the bottom of my lip.
âAsh wait a sec,â I said holding back a moan before pulling back she looked at me frowning
âWhat about Rachel I canât do this if youâre dating her, I donât want to be that kind of girl,â I said she looked at me confused.
âGabby me and Rachel arenât datingâ I explained she looked at me confused
âBut I saw you two on the date kissingâ I said she shook my head
âGabby it wasnât a date I really did go to the business dinner my dad was there too Rachel invited me because she needed someone there when she came out and her father got mad so we left and went to dinner what you saw was her telling me she liked me but I donât like her I told her that and she accepted itâ I said in one breath she nodded soaking in everything that I just said.
âBut why is she living with youâ she asked wasnât she there when I explained this.
âHer father kicked her out because she announced that she was gay in front of everyone so now sheâs living with us until she can find a place werenât you there when I explained everythingâ she asked I shook my head that was the day I didnât want to here anything about her and Rachel
âNo I kind of left because I didnât want to hear itâ said sheepishly blushing she laughed at me and shook her head.
âWell now that we have that settle can we finish,â She asked leaning in closer to me I blushed.
âNope I have class to go to and you do too,â I said pushing her out my way I hopped off the desk while she frowned at me I smiled and walked to the door she grumbled something before she turned me around and gave a peck on my lips before leaving out the classroom I blushed.
âGabby you comingâ She asked smirking at me and holding out her hand I grabbed her hand and she pulled me out the classroom I looked around the halls were now empty.
âAsh are we lateâ I asked she grinned and shrugged her shoulders at me.
âI donât know go to class and find outâ she said I frowned at her as we went up the stairs to my next class we stopped in front of the door I heard the teacher talking to the class I sighed we were late.
âIâll be waiting at the end of classâ Ash said smiling at me I nodded she leaned down and gave me a long sensuous kiss I felt my cheeks heat up as I opened my eyes this was going to take some getting use to she smirked at me before she walked away leaving me standing there I got myself together before I opened the door to my classroom the teacher turned to me.
âGabriel how nice of you to join usâ He said as I walked in
âIâm sorry Iâm late it wonât happen againâ I said quickly he nodded and told me to sit down.
(Ash POV)
âSo did you and Gabriel fix it like I told you toâ Samantha asked coming out of nowhere I was on my way to Gabriel classroom I always leave me class early so I can catch her and walk her to her classes.
âYupâ I said smiling at her she grinned excitedly
âYou guys are finally together I thought I was going to win the betâ she said I raised my eyebrow at her.
âUm no we arenât together we decide to forget it ever happened and what betâ I said she laughed nervously at me.
âWell me and the girl have a bet going of when you two are going to end up togetherâ She said I nodded
âSo what did you and the others say,â I asked
âI said by Christmas Jenna said last month she lost obviously and Amber said spring break and Aly said thanksgivingâ she said sheepishly I laughed their crazy
âHow muchâ I asked she looked at me
âUm 200 to whoever winsâ she said I nodded shaking my head.
âYou guys have no life,â I laughed as she frowned at me
âLook Iâll catch you laterâ I said walking off to Gabby classroom by the time I reached her classroom the bell rang. I leaned against the locker looking at the students come out the door Gabriel was the last person to come out she walked right past and looked around I rolled my eyes, walked up behind her and wrapped my arms around her waist.
âGabbyâ I said she turned to me and grinned I smiled at her Iâm still happy weâre talking again it killed me when we ignored each other.
âHey Ash I didnât see you thereâ she said I laughed at her and smirked
âLets get you to class so we can get the hell out of hereâ I said she laughed at me as we walked down the stairs to her next class.
âAsh how are you not late for your classes if youâre walking meâ she asked as we stop in front of her class I shrugged
âWho says that Iâm ever on time for themâ I asked she frowned
âAsh you canât keep going to youâre classes lateâ She said I shrugged again
âIâm not always late I wasnât late on Monday or Tuesday â I said those were the days we werenât talking she frowned at me again.
âGo to class Iâll be here afterâ I told her and walked off to the gym the coach called us for a meeting today I walked in the gym and sat down next to Sean.
âWhatâs up manâ I said he looked at me then grinned.
âYouâre finally out of youâre depression both you and Gabby were killing us these past few days especially when neither of you wouldnât answer youâre phone or talk to usâ he said I groaned at him
âI wasnât in a depression now leave me alone whatâs this meeting about anywaysâ I asked he shrugged
âI donât know youâre the team captain you tell meâ
âJust because Iâm the captain doesnât mean I know everythingâ I stated the coach came out of his office.
âOk boysâ he paused then looked at me I raised my eyebrow
âAnd Ashâ I rolled my eyes
âI called this meeting to tell you that we are starting Saturday practiceâ He started everyone groaned and I shook my head they should be used to this he did the same thing last year and the year before that too.
âJust because you punks groaned Saturday Practice will start at 7 o-clock sharp be here bright and early boys that means by 6:30 am in the morningâ He shouted at us I cringed god their so stupid everyone should know not to complain if they hadnât practice would have started at ten o-clock, school doesnât even start that early now I have to get out my bed because of them.
âAlso practice today is cancelled so you can go home and I want everyoneâs progress reports tomorrow if any of you are failing any of youâre classes you will be off the team until you pick them back up or until youâre teacher give you a clear now you guys are dismissedâ He said I sighed and stood up
âOh and Ash itâs good to have you back to normal I was tired of you slouching around and messing up my practiceâ The coach said I frowned and he laughed before he went back to his office I was not slouching around Sean clapped me on the shoulder laughing.
âEven he knew something was upâ He said shaking his head I pushed him away from me I walked out the gym ignoring him as he laughed.
(Gabriel POV)
Just like Ash said she was outside my class at the end of the class standing at the door waiting for me I smiled at her and she grinned.
âSo where are you going nowâ I asked her as we walked to my locker
âI donât know practice was cancelled so Iâm free whyâ She asked I shrugged
âJust asking you want to hang out,â I asked her hoping sheâd say yes please say yes.
âHmm I donât know if I want toâ She said thinking about it
âOh I guess itâs okâ I said sadly she looked down at me and grinned
âGabby Iâm just playing Iâll come over and I can help you with physicsâ She said I frowned at her I forgot about Physics, which I pretty sure Iâm failing right now I donât think the teacher likes me anyway.
âI forgot about physicsâ I said she shook her head I closed my locker and we walked to parking lot.
âYou do know that progress reports come out tomorrow rightâ She said as we stop in front of my car,
âWhat you canât be serious my parents are going to kill me if they find out Iâm failingâ I said unlocking my door and throwing my bags in the bag seat.
âThey donât have to know as long as you pass before the report cardsâ She said I looked behind her Rachel was standing by her car.
âAsh I think sheâs waiting for youâ I said she turned around and cursed
âI forgot Iâll be like 10 minutes I have to take her back to my houseâ she said running her hands through her hair I laughed.
âAlright thatâs fine but hurry upâ I said she grinned and ran over to her car I got in my car started it up and went home when I got home no one was there as usual over the weekend they were here but I was locked in my room by myself most the times with the exception of my little sister who kept asking me to play with her. I went to my room and cleaned off my desk of all the paper and took out my physics book before I changed into out of my uniform and into a white tank top and a light blue soffe shorts I put my soft fuzzy slipper socks on too. I sat on my bed waiting for Ash Iâm slightly nervous about us being her together alone I know weâve been by ourselves before but that was different things have changed now. Iâm still confused about her but I did figure one thing out which is that I did like kissing her and that I⦠the door bell rung interrupting my thoughts I ran down stair and opened it smiling my nervousness completely forgotten, Ash was standing there grinning at me before she came in she also changed into a pair of black sweats and a white Abercrombie and Fitch t shirt.
âYou readyâ She asked I nodded and we headed up stairs to my room I sat at my desk while Ash pulled up another chair.
âOkay what are you having problems with,â She asked I looked at her sheepishly
âEverythingâ I replied she sighed and opened my textbook to the first page and started to teach me or attempt to teach me.
(Ash POV)
I knew it was going to be a long night the minute she said she didnât understand anything. Itâs been two hours and I was still trying to teach her this problem that weâve been working on for a while now. She would whine and complain when I gave her some problems to work on so I could see if she understood what I was telling her. Sheâs currently working on a problem now while I sit back and watch her pull her hair in frustration she threw the pen down and groaned before she banged her head on the desk repeatedly.
âAsh I donât get itâ She whined turning to me I sighed this isnât working she was doing good the first few chapters but now she isnât.
âOk look if you plug t into the height equation youâll find the height and when you find the height you can calculate the velocity using this equation along with this oneâ I said she groaned and looked at me
âAsh can we take a break my head hurts now,â She said pouting at me; I looked at the time it was only five o-clock.
âFine but only for an hourâ I said she smiled and jumped up stretching I shook my head and followed her as she went down stairs and into the kitchen.
âIâm hungry want to order carry outâ She asked
âSure but whatâ I asked sitting on the stool in front of her she looked up in the air thinking
âUm I have a taste for Chinese food what about youâ She asked I didnât know but I did know what I wanted to taste I smirked at her and she looked at me confused I reached out and pulled her to me she squealed slightly.
âAsh what are you doingâ She asked blushing at our closeness I smirked at her again.
âI donât knowâ I said before I kissed her she kissed me back instantly I smirked into the kiss pulling her closer to me my hands tightened on her waist as she wrapped her arms around my neck I deepened the kiss by asking for entrance my tongue escaped into her mouth contacting with her cool one hmm I loved how she tasted the same way she smelled like strawberries, I wonder what I taste like to her she I heard her stomach growl I pulled back and looked at her she was blushing as I laughed at her.
âGo ahead and order the food weâll finish this laterâ I said making her blush again as she picked up the phone and dialed the Chinese food place I stood up and went to the living room as she ordered the food I flopped on the couch and turned the T.V on and flipped through the channels I could hear her in the background as she hung up the phone and came in here. She sat down next to me
âWhat you orderâ
âOrange chicken, rice, lo mien, and kung Poa chickenâ She said I looked at her with my eyebrows raised she didnât have to order that much.
âWhat Iâm hungry and youâre hungry and I havenât had Chinese food in forever,â She said looking at me like I was crazy I rolled my eyes at her.
âYouâre going to end up wasting all of the food,â I told her she was frowning at me
âNo Iâm notâ She mumbled snatching the remote out my hand and changing the channel.
âHey I was watching thatâ I complained
âWell now youâre watching thisâ I sighed and didnât bother to argue with her. Ten minutes later I got bored of watching this stupid soap opera.
âGabby please change the channelâ She nodded her head not paying attention as she watched the show.
âGabby seriously change the channelâ I said when she didnât respond I took the remote from beside her and flipped the station.
âAsh turn it back he was about to confessâ She said frantically reaching for the remote I held it up in the air.
âNo Iâm not going to watch thatâ I said as she climbed in her knees trying to reach it
âCome on Ash give it backâ She said I held it out her reach as she leaned over me giving me the perfect view of her chest I smirked at them before I felt her snatch the remote out of my hand no I refuse to watch some soap opera I pulled my hand to her waist and grabbed onto her before flinging her onto the couch and hovering over her as she laid there with the remote in her hand.
âGabby give me the remoteâ I said she shook her head and held the remote close to her chest her blonde hair was fanned out around her
âNo I want to watch thisâ She said I raised my eyebrow at her before I moved my face closer to hers I looked her in her eyes smirking internally as she turned red I hovered over her lips as she closed her eyes I grinned I win I quickly snatched the remote out her hands as her eyes shot opened she glared at me and I grinned back at her as the bell rung I got off the couch and ran to answer the door when I opened the door the delivery guy handed me the bill I fished out my wallet and paid as he gave me the food I closed the door.
âAsh lets eat up stairs I got the forks and drinks,â She said coming out the kitchen I nodded and took the food up stairs and sat everything on the little table she had by her bed I sat down on the little couch she had I turned her T.V on and blocked all the soap channels just in case. I grinned as she walked in the room and sat down next to me.
âWhat are you grinning aboutâ she asked raising and eyebrow
âNothingâ I said taking the food out the bag and placing them on the table she gave me the fork and placed the drinks down.
âGabby where are the platesâ I asked
âI donât feel like washing dishes so we eat from the cartonsâ She said picking up one of the carton she opened it and stuffed a piece of chicken in her mouth she must like spicy foods I grabbed the Orange chicken and watched her eyeâs get big.
âWhat wrongâ I asked putting a piece of chicken in my mouth she shook her head and swallowed before she grabbed her soda and drunk it.
âItâs hot like spicy hot,â she said holding her tongue out and trying to look at it I laughed
âThatâs why its called kung pao chicken Gabby,â I said rolling my eyes she frowned at me
âI didnât know it was spicyâ I sighed and took the carton out of her hand and gave her the one I was eating.
âDonât waste it,â I said she smiled and dug in it while I placed the kung pao chicken to the side. I thought it would be we sat in silence while I watched the basketball game surprisingly Gabriel was watching it with out complaining I guess I didnât need to block the channels oh well I guess Iâll unblock them later.
âAsh can I have some Lo mienâ Gabriel asked I handed her the carton
âYou donât have to ask Gabbyâ I said she nodded her head yes before she started eating some I went for the rice, I looked at the time it was almost 6 o-clock we had to start up again soon.
âIâm full,â She said putting her carton down I looked at how much food we had left
âI told you, you were going to waste all of this,â I said closing all of the containers and putting them back in the bag.
âIâm not wasting it Iâll eat it laterâ She said crossing her arms I shook my head and stretched
âOk time to get back to the physicsâ I said she groaned and walked over to her desk and sat down I sat down next to her and continued where we left off.
(Gabriel POV)
Last week went by really fast everyday since Wednesday (last week) Ash has been coming over my house for about 3 or 4 hours tutoring me, physics was torturing I donât get it or understand it, she helped with the first few chapters which I now understood but the new chapters are confusing thereâs too many formulas to remember and its hard figuring out which formula to use especially if you donât know them and it didnât help that she would distract me every once in awhile by doing stupid stuff like kissing me while I was doing a problem well itâs not like I didnât enjoy it or anything its just that I had would have my mind on it for the rest of the night. The bell was about to ring signaling the beginning of the class but Ash wasnât here yet which is weird sheâs usually here before me.
âGabriel Iâve been meaning to ask you what happened between you and Ashâ Aly said sitting next to me taking Ash seat I looked at her
âNothing like Ash said we just had a little misunderstandingâ I said she nodded and bent her head closer to and whispered
âAre you guys together or something,â She asked I blushed
âNoâ I said she cursed under her breath I gave her a look.
âWhyâ I asked she shrugged and stood up
âJust wanted to nowâ She said walking back to her desk where Sean was laughing at her I looked at her strangely just as Ash came through the door out of breath the bell had rung the minute she stepped in I smiled at her laughing.
âThat was close I almost didnât make it â She said sitting down.
âWhat took you so long,â I asked
âI ran into someone in the hall way knocking all their stuff downâ She explained
âI hope you help pick it upâ
âI did thatâs what took so long she had a whole bunch of paper all over the floor I kind of just picked them up and threw them in her arms and said sorry I didnât see who it was I didnât have time toâ She said I shook my head.
âThat sounds a little rudeâ
âI told you I didnât have time I was already running lateâ She said poking me on my side I jumped and pushed her away.
âDonât be so roughâ She mumbled sitting up straight I laughed at her.
âWimpâ I muttered under my breath she frowned at me as the class started.
âI am not a wimp,â She said quietly bumping me with her shoulder I rolled my eyes and pinched her on her arm she jumped and rubbed her arm mumbling something under her breath.
âNot a wimp Ash okâ She looked at me and frowned before she smirked I raised my eyebrow at her sheâs up to something.
âWhatever Gabbyâ Said and turned her attention to the teacher. The class went past fast unlike usual maybe because we were in the back fussing the whole time.
(Ash POV)
So both me and Rachel slept in late I didnât realize it until she came running down the basement telling me that we were going to be late I didnât have time to do anything but shower and brush my teeth, my clothes were already ironed so all I had to do was throw them on I didnât get to eat my breakfast and I didnât comb my hair so I had the messy look today I tired fixing it as I ran down the hall but I bumped into somebody their papers scattered everywhere I had apologized and pick them up before I threw them in her arms I didnât know who it was I didnât have time to look at their face because like I said I was running late I dashed down the hall ignoring the teacher you yelled at me to stop running I rolled my eyes and kept going luckily I had made it in time for class. During the first class me and Gabriel were fussing the whole time about who was a wimp and who wasnât she hated the fact that I pointed out that she was the one who couldnât go to sleep at night when she watched Paranormal Activity after I said that she pretty much ignored me the rest of the class.
By the time it was time for lunch she was still ignoring me I also made a mistake and slipped and told her that I blocked all her soap channels she was mad at me I guess her cable is set up so that if you block channels in one room it blocks in the other rooms to now I have to give her the code. So now Iâm standing here waiting for Gabriel to pass by.
(Gabriel POV)
That stupid idiot blocked all my soap channels Iâve been trying to watch my soap since last Wednesday but I canât because the idiot has a password on it and Iâm pretty sure she doesnât know it I tried calling the cable company but they said I need my parents authorization which is stupid because their never home and when they are home Iâm somewhere else. I sighed and walked down the hall to lunch I didnât see Ash anywhere, which was weird because sheâs been following me around all day trying to make me talk to her I shrugged oh well sheâs probably in the cafeteria by now I continued my walk thinking about how I feel about her but before I could put anything together I was pulled into a dark room I opened my mouth to scream but the person covered my mouth oh no not again this cant happen again I struggled against their grip until I heard my name.
âGabby chill out it me Ashâ She removed her hands from my mouth I turned around and glared at her
âWhat the hell Ashâ I hissed at her I could see her smirking in the dark
âDonât smirk at me you scared the lifeâ I said as she stepped forward I step back but my back was already against the wall where the hell are we this place is to small to be a classroom or anything.
âSorryâ She said I shook my head
âSorry not going to cut it and you made me miss my showsâ I said she leaned down and kissed me softly I frowned a little before I put my hand on her chest giving her a light push but she didnât move instead she pushed me further against the wall she grabbed hold of my hand and held them above my head, she looked at me and grinned.
âAshâ I started but stop when she kissed me hard I forgot what I was going to say and kissed her back I lips parted as she enter I couldnât withhold the soft moan of pleasure I wanted to wrap my arms around her and pull her closer but my arms were above my head a her lips abandoned my mouth as she started to kiss a trail down my neck I moaned as she attacked my neck sucking and pulling my skin she lifted her free hand off of my waist and started undoing the buttons on my shirt god she starting to give me Goosebumps, after undoing the buttons she moved further down wait I donât want to have sex with her not in here Iâm not ready for this.
âAshhhâ I moaned
âHmmâ she mumbled into my skin sucking on my collar bone her hands began to tug on my shirt I felt cool air hit my shoulder and the top of my chest, I shivered slightly and bit my lip
âWe canât not readyâ I moaned again she came back to me and looked me in the eyes
âI know you arenât â She said smirking before kissing me
âAshâ I said in between the kisses
âWhatâ She said going to my neck
âCan I have my hands back,â I asked I felt her sigh and let me go
âHappyâ She said in a husky voice I shook my head no
âNo Iâm still mad at you but it can waitâ I said I pulled her head up and connected my mouth to hers felt her grin against my lips as I licked her lips she opened willingly and darted her tongue in my mouth quickly taking over the kiss I gripped my hands in her hair and pulled her close as she lifted my legs up around her waist I tightened them around her, her hand slid up my legs leaving a trail of Goosebumps her hand made its way up to my thighs close to the edge of my underwear before she stopped them and moved them stoking my legs.
"Mmmmm." I felt her tongue everywhere. It was soft, slick and so, so
sensual. I pulled back for air I was breathing heavy but she seemed fine because she started sucking on the top part of my chest.
âAsh to farâ I groaned to her god sheâs driving crazy right now I could feel myself being turned on no ones ever made me feel like this and I have had some intense make out sessions she grunted and came back up to me grinning I could see the lust still in her eyes as she stared down at my chest I donât remember my shirt being completely unbuttoned.
âAs much as I want to finish this we have to get to lunch,â she said not letting me down I felt my face heat up as she smirked at me.
âCan you let me downâ I asked realizing that my legs were wrapped around her she laughed at me and took her hands from up my skirt making me shiver I unwrapped my legs from her and stood up buttoning my shirt up I fix my hair.
âReadyâ She asked grinning at me I nodded she leaned down and gave me one last kiss lingering slightly before she pulled away she opened the door and looked out before grabbing my hand and pulling me out when the door closed I looked at the sign.
âAsh the janitors closetâ I mumbled to her she looked at me grinning
(Ash POV)
âAsh the Janitors closetâ She mumbled to me I grinned
âIt was the only one opened, next time it will definitely be at my houseâ I said looking at her swollen lips god I want to kiss her again because man that was hot Iâm so frustrated right now because of her I feel the need to take a nice cold shower you do something to relieve myself we were walking to the cafeteria I looked down at her she was blushing I grinned when I looked at her neck I left 3 bites on her one on her neck one on her collar and one on the top of her chest sheâs going to be so pissed when she seeâs them. I love this agreement man is it wonderful we walked in the cafeteria and went straight to the lunch line I think we were 20 or so minutes late we grabbed our food and I paid for them. We walked to the table where are friends were talking Me and Gabriel sat down at the table they turned to us.
âWhere were you guys,â Aly asked
âI was looking for her and she was looking for me,â I said shrugging she looked at me then Gabriel I hope she isnât blushing right now I looked down at her surprisingly she was her normal color thatâs new she always blushing.
âOkâ She said eying the both of us I raised my eyebrow at her and began to eat thinking about what we just did I wanted to go further than that but I didnât want to pressure into I went as far as I could before she said stop which I did. The bell rung I guess we were later than I thought I looked down at Gabriel she put her last nugget in her mouth as we stood up good she ate it. We threw our trash and left the cafeteria with the other Gabby and the girls were in the front of us talking and we were in the back.
âLook at herâ Alex said dreamily I looked at him with my eyebrows raised
âWhoâ we all asked
âThe lovely and single Gabriel I think Iâm going to make my move and ask her on a dateâ He said looking determined I frowned at him.
âAlex stay away from herâ I said he glared at me
âWhy sheâs single and I can ask out whoever I want toâ He said I was prepared to threaten him when I heard one of the girls gasp I looked at them confused until I heard the next few words.
âGabriel is that a hickeyâ Jenna said loudly pointing to Gabriel neck Gabriel looked at her confused until one of the girl pulled out a compact mirror she looked in and turned red I didnât know if it was from anger or embarrassment I turned to Alex smirking good thing I marked the territory.
âLooks like she already taken manâ I said laughing at his sad face Sean looked at me funny so did Tristan I raised my eyebrow at them before I walked up to the girls who were now harassing her trying to figure out who it was.
âSo Gabriel who was itâ I asked frowning at her she looked at me with her bright red face and glared I laughed at her and shook my head the girls started asking questions.
âAlright girls sheâs had enoughâ I told them wrapping an arm around her waist and walking with her to the gym they were following right behind us trying to listen to what we were saying they probably thought that she would tell me, Gabriel leaned into me I smirked at this so she isnât mad.
âAsh what the hell were you thinkingâ She hissed at me quietly I guess I spoke to soon.
âUm I was caught up in the momentâ I said quietly to her she looked up at me and glared.
âMoment my ass Iâm going to kill you what if someone finds outâ She said I rolled my eyes and squeezed her side lightly.
âI told you that no one will find out and I wonât do it againâ I spoke quietly to her she nodded at me glaring I smirked at her as we stop to open the door once I opened the door she looked at me and gave me a big smile I smiled but It dropped quickly when I felt her foot connect with my shin I cursed and held my shin I frowned at her.
âOops sorry my foot slipped,â She said with a smug look on her face before going in the gym and up the bleacher Aly followed behind her laughing.
