Chapter 2

Ashi dragged Jack into her room, and quickly locked the door before turning towards him.

"Ashi, I don't think it's appropriate for me to be in your room..." Jack said as he looked around in curiosity.

Her room was surprisingly brighter than the house in general. She had flowers decorated everywhere, along with green walls and a jungle-styled bed with stuffed animals.

"...Hm, not what I quite expected," Jack smiled and turned to face Ashi.

"What are you saying?" Ashi demanded, crossing her arms.

"For a half-demon trained assassin, your room is...cute," Jack nodded as he found the perfect adjective.

"...Shut up," Ashi blushed as she sat on her bed, patting the space beside her for Jack to sit on.

Jack hesitantly sat beside her and after an awkward silence of glancing at each other, he cleared his throat, "About your family..."

"I told you so," Ashi sighed, "My mom's an insane freak, my dad's a weirdo, and my sisters are basically robots,"

"Well..." Jack scratched the back of his head, "That does not make you any less radiant than you are now,"

"Jack...you're really corny," Ashi chuckled as she punched his shoulder, "But it's sweet, I like it,"

They sat in silence again. Jack fake yawned loudly as he stretched his arms, wrapping one around Ashi's frame. She barely contained her laughter as she played along to his game, leaning her head against his shoulder.

They were suddenly interrupted by yelling from Ashi's window.

"YOU CALL THAT FLIRTING LADDIE?! YA BIG BABY! ARE YA GONNA WRITE A POEM FOR 'ER NOW, EH?!" Ghost-Scotsman yelled from the window.

Jack calmly walked to the window and closed the curtains, "Please excuse my friend...he is usually very drunk,"

Ashi blinked, and then rubbed her eyes to make sure she was seeing correctly, "Is he a-"

"CELTIC MAGIC!" Ghost-Scotsman yelled through the window, "AYE, LET ME PLAY THE PERFECT SONG THAT'LL SET THE MOOD!"

Suddenly, the most loudest, awful sound of bagpipes started playing outside, causing Jack and Ashi to immediately cover their ears.

"WHAT. IS. THAT. NOISE?!" Aku screamed as he busted through Ashi's door.

"Dad! I told you to knock before entering!" Ashi groaned.

"Sorry sweetheart, but Daddy pays the bills, so he can knock down any door he wants," Aku shrugged, "Anyways, your mother and I are getting a divorce, so we gotta decide who's getting what child. Be prepared to go to court or whatever. And don't worry- Daddy will make sure he'll take custody of you,"

Ashi stared speechless at her father, "You're actually getting a divorce?"

"Yeah, your mother is insane. I'd rather pay child support than put up with her," Aku sighed.

Suddenly, Ashi's mother ran into the room, clinging onto Aku's tentacle-base-leg things, "MASTER! DON'T LEAVE ME WITH THESE WORTHLESS BRATS! I'LL DO ANYTHING FOR YOU!"

"That's the problem! You're too clingy!" Aku complained, walking out, dragging the desperate Ashi's mother with him.

"..."

"EVERYBODY LOVES SOMEBODY SOMETIME~!" Ghost-Scotsman yelled/sang though the window, and continued playing his bagpipes.

Ashi growled, stormed over to the window, opened it, and screamed, "SHUT UP!", before slamming it, ceasing the noise.

Jack's eyes widened at her temper. He was slightly scared, yet slightly turned on somehow, "Ashi, are you ok?"

"No! I have to go to court and say a stupid testimony defending my worthless father!" Ashi complained, flopping onto her bed, "I wish they never wanted a divorce in the first place,"

"Hmm...maybe I can help out with that," Jack muttered.

"You can? How?" Ashi jumped up and leaned extra close to Jack's face, causing him to blush.

"Do not worry, I have a few friends that can help get your parents back together," Jack took out his cell phone.
