Part 0.9
Ashton seemed like a really nice guy. The way he talked and smiled made me like him, and his looks made me love him. All together he was somewhat a perfect package. I desperately wanted to run my hands along his beautiful abs, but I contain myself. I was acting all giddy again, and it was really starting to bug me.
"So where's your camp at?" Aston asked, while scanning the area. Despite myself I licked my lips, I was just glad he didn't see.
"Um…over there," I muttered, pointing to my small corner. Gem was there, breast feeding her child. Not the coolest thing to have going on when you bring home a hot guy. Gem looked embarrassed, and she stopped as I approached.
"Hey Sydney, who do we have here?" she smiled nervously, still recovering from the embarrassed from her having something sucking on her chest when he approached. Her smiled waved quietly.
"Um…I'm Ashton. Sydney thought it might be okay if I crash here, but I didn't know there was someone else staying here so…" Ashton thought he wasn't welcome. Gem laughed out loud and shook her head. She seemed to have recovered from her embarrassment rather quickly.
"Oh no, you don't have to leave, the more the merrier," she smiled, and as Ashton placed his stuff next to my large pack, Gem leaned over and whispered into my ear. "I didn't know you had a man friend, girl. It's okay but I don't want you…"
She broke off and made a sort of noise in her throat. I understood exactly what she was saying.
"Oh god no Gem," I said out loud. Embarrassment returning rapidly. I quieted my voice. "I just met him, and even though he's h…nice I don't plan on doing anything with him."
"Good, just checking. But you're always welcome to a closet," laughter erupted from the both of us. Ashton gave us one of those insane girls looks. I decided that I better lay out my stuff too, night was almost upon us.
"Um…what are we doing for dinner?" I asked. I laid out my sleeping mat and bag next to Ashton's. He smiled, and placed one hand on my shoulder.
"There's always pizza in the main area. Don't ask me how, but there always is," Ashton motioned for me to follow him. I was pulled up from my work, and was forced to follow.
"I'll bring you some back Gem," I yelled when I saw her starting to rise. She needed to feed her baby, and it was best she stayed. I was starting to stall for some reason, so Ashton pulled at my hand.
"Come on," I was amazed at how excited he got over some food. It was like he was magnetically attracted to it or something.
"Can we walk?" I asked. I felt like taking it slow, seeing I wasn't that hungry. Ashton immediately slowed down. How considerate he is, I thought to myself.
"Oh, I assumed you liked to run," he blushed slightly. I laughed at him. I guess I had given that impression.
"I like to run, but not all the time. I prefer to swim though," I said. I had always been the best at water training, and now I knew why.
"How's that? No one in my group liked the water that much," he replied. "Although I did, a little I guess."
"I have tiger DNA in my genetic build up," I said. This was usually as much as I ever shared with anyone. I trust Ashton a lot, and I was glad we were going to go eat together.
