Chapter 6
Asha was the first to admit she'd liked what had happened between the two of them.
In fact she hadn't wanted to leave his bed at all. But to stay would mean that what they had meant more then it did. Alec was simply filling a need. A friend doing her a favor.
Still looking back on the incident, Asha couldn't help but want more.
Would it be so bad to do it again? Could they keep pretending that this was okay?
A week later and she still couldn't get it off of her mind. True to his words Alec hadn't mentioned the incident at all. He hadn't hinted or boasted or even asked for a repeat, which slightly surprised her. She'd expected him to brag about it to Logan just to see what would happen.
But to her knowledge he hadn't.
To her knowledge he had kept the incident entirely to himself.
That just made doing it again more appealing.
She found her eyes wandering over to the pool table where Alec was currently taking some poor sucker for all he was worth. Asha surpressed a grin as the fool lost more and more, then asked for another game.
Deciding to take action she slipped up behind the man and patted him on the shoulder.
"Excuse me but would you mind if I tried?" she asked innocently, surpressing the reflex to knock him into next week when he raked his eyes over her.
"Are you sure honey? I wouldn't want him to take advantage of you." he answered talking to her chest as he slid a hand around her waist.
Alec's jaw tightened at his gesture and Asha found his protective gesture endearing. He just seemed to be getting better and better.
"I'm sure." she offered flatly, pushing the leering leach away. The man however didn't want to stop.
Alec had had enough of the drunken slob's actions. He didn't like watching anyone treat his friend in such a degrading manner. She wasn't a slab of meat and the drunk definately didn't deserve her.
Placing a hand on his shoulder, Alec turned the man around.
"I think she'd like you to get lost." he threatened. The man laughed and Alec's eyes darkened in anger. "I'm really no good at pool, fighting on the other hand..." he threatened and the man seemed to lose his nerve.
Asha laughed as the drunk retreated. Alec merely smiled.
"Are you ready to lose everything you own?" Alec asked mischiviously repeating the earlier man's eye movements. Asha found she didn't mind Alec's gaze.
"I think I should be asking you that question." she answered taking the cue from Alec's hand and setting up the table. All the while making sure to provide Alec with a few perfect memories.
"Are you sure honey?" Alec mocked. Asha smiled, knowing better.
"What do you say we have a friendly wager Suger?" Asha sweet talked back sarcastically.
"And here I thought you came over to save me from those money grubbing leaches." he played.
"Look at those two dance." Original Cindy commented gesturing over to the pool table where Asha was currently kicking Alec's cute butt.
Max turned to look at what O.C. was pointing at and laughed out loud.
"Them? You've got to be kidding." O.C. simply raised her eyebrow and the two continued watching.
Asha leaned over the table directly across from where Alec stood openly eyeing her, despite the fact that it was one of the hardest locations to make the shot she needed. It would only be more impressive when she did make it. She pretended to flub the shot and Alec smiled.
"Need someone to show you how to hold that thing?" Alec mocked.
"You think you can do better?" she questioned raising and eyebrow and straightening out.
Alec took her invitation, slipping behind her and placing his hands over hers he guided her hands to the correct position. When she had complied to his hands directions he moved his hands up her arms and let them rest about midway up her arm, not bothering to step back as she took the shot.
Smiling in satisfaction when the shot didn't quite make it, Asha fell back into his arms to comment.
"I guess I'm gonna need more lessons." she stated innocently before leaving his arms to grab a drink.
Alec smiled walking around the table so that he had to bend over in front of her to make the shot. Asha smiled in appreciation.
"Now you can't tell Original Cindy that, they ain't kicking it." O.C. remarked as Max turned back to face her friend.
"Don't you think Alec would have bragged about it by now?" Max commented.
"True that...Still you and Logan weren't like none of that either."
Max rolled her eyes.
Asha gladly took the offered fifty from a reluctant Alec's hand and smiled in her victory.
"How come you didn't clue me in?" Alec asked.
"Didn't clue you in on what, the fact that I'm the reigning champ in this dump, I thought you knew. Poor baby." Asha mocked patting Alec on the cheek like a puppy.
"Yeah whatever." Alec replied glumly. He wasn't all to fond of being beaten by her, champ or not.
"Come on Alec." Asha whined.
"I've got a way for you to make it up to me." Alec answered with an evil glint in his eyes, to her sexy pout.
"Please, lead the way." Asha answered back with the same devilish grin.
