Not many reviews this time..kind of disappointing..but it's okay. Hopefully I'll get a few extra on this chapter? (:
Now..unto the story!
Ashten
Just when I was mere seconds from falling asleep my phone began to buzz with that all to familiar ringtone I had for almost two years now. I roll over on my mattress, to tired to even open my eyes as I feel my nightstand until my hands grasp my phone.
"Hello?" My voice cracking ever so slightly.
"Ash, you okay?" I hear Kendall's angelic voice on the other side of the phone making a pain in my stomach hit at how miserable I had sounded when I answered my phone.
"Uh,…yeah, yeah I'm okay." I say lying.
"You sure as hell don't sound like you are, c'mon Ashten, what's wrong? I know you're hiding something. I can read you like a book." He answers.
"Honestly Kendall, it's fine you don't need to worry about it."
I hear rustling on the other side of the phone. What is he doing? I think to myself. As soon as I think that I hear a small thud on my bedroom window.
"Open your window." Kendall states into the phone before he hangs up.
I take the white sheets from my body and turn on my lamp that's sitting on my desk beside me before getting up and moving across my floor to the other side of the rom to opening the window. Sure enough Kendall is standing outside of it, a goofy smile plastered on his face showing off his gorgeous dimples.
"It's almost one in the morning, shouldn't you be sleeping." I question as he climbs into my bedroom making a thud as his shoe gets caught.
"Klutz." I say aloud,
"Klutz" I hear Kendall mimic in a bitchy tone totally mocking me. I roll my eyes irritably before going back to m bed and sitting on it indian style, I watch as he makes his way after me, sitting on the floor in front of me.
"Soooo..how did your date go with dipsti-…I mean Nathan." He asks fiddling with his thumbs.
"It was fine I guess."
"What do you mean by fine?"
"I don't know what do you think?"
"Why are you being so….bi-….rude?"
"Nice save." I scuff at him, "It's nothing, I'm just tired."
"Seriously what's wrong."
"For the last and final time…it's nothing!" I say getting pissed that he won't drop the damn subject already after I told him too countless times in the past ten minutes.
"So tell me anyways." He presses, Kendall seemed to never let go when something was irritating me and that, no matter how irritating it could be at times, was one of the many things I loved about him. He was genuine and cared for the people he loved.
"I uh..I met one of Nathan's friends tonight," I state in an annoyed tone.
"And that's a bad thing because…? He trailed off.
"-Because she's a hottie with a body."
"I see."
Oh please, of course you can't see, you have a stupid guy's brain. I think to myself
"No, no you don't see. She and he size double D boobs were all over him grabbing his hand, flirting with him like I wasn't there!" I ranted.
"Double D?!" His eyes seemed to big out when he said that
"Shut up." I say bumping his leg in a joking manner.
" I was joking Ashten..and as for his friend..well, hate to break it to you, but some girls are just like that, don't pay attention to it. Besides, from what I've gathered from you, Nathan is..well, a somewhat okay guy. You can trust him."
Wait what? This coming from Kendall; the guy who basically argued everyday for almost a month about me dating him in the first place..and now, after tonight, the night I was actually questioning to break up with him, Kendall says he's okay with it…Did hell freeze over?
"Didn't you hang out with Tiffany tonight? How did that go?"
"I cancelled, wasn't feeling up to going out tonight." He states in a bored voice.
"Okay, weird alert. What's wrong with you? Since when do you not jump at a chance to go out with a girl?"
"Nothing's wrong. It just that Tiffany just doesn't seem to really be my type, I have nothing against her, I'm sure she's a nice persona and all, but I don't know. I just feel like we don't really click you know?"
"Since when did you have a type?" Because honestly, Kendall went for anything with legs and a pair of nice boobs.
"Okay, so maybe I don't have a type, but that girl is as dumb as a light post. And you know what I mean." He argues.
"Whatever, I'm thirsty, go get me a water from the fridge downstairs?" I ask, giving him the best puppy dog look I can muster.
"Only because you're my best friend." He says before hopping up and going downstairs to get me my request.
"GRAB THE BAG OF CHIPS IN THE CUPBOARD NEXT TO THE MICROWAVE WELL YOU'RE AT IT!" I yell loud enough for him to hear me.
"Whatever." I hear him shout back, I smile to myself before getting comfy on my bed.
Kendall POV
I turn off the hallway light and return into Ashtens room, bag of chips in one hand, bottled water in the other. I place the items gingerly on her vanity oak dresser. I jump on the bed and send Ashten flying in the air. She scowls and I grin back at her.
She looks tired, so I scoop her in my arms, and pull the cover on top of her small fram. I go over to the left side of the bed, and get under the covers. Ashten turns over, facing me, her eyes shining in the small litted bedroom. I pull her close to my chest, and I rest her head on tops of hers, as I wrap my arms around her waist.
"Goodnight Kendork." She whispers, her nickname for me makes me chuckle lightly.
"Goodnight." I reply back to her.
Ashten falls asleep pretty soon, but I don't. I'm not even all that tired. According to my phone, it's only one twenty-seven am.
I watch Ashten as she sleeps, I think back to what my friend had told me earlier in the day when we were playing basketball, "You love her Kendall, t's so obvious." Do I love Ashten? I don't think I do, yet sometimes I find myself day dreaming of what it would feel like to kiss her, and to hold her tight against me. Gosh, why is life so confusing? I fall asleep with this question in my head.
I wake up the next morning to the sound of Tiffany's ringtone. I nwrap my arms from around Ashten and quickly answer the phone, so the sound won't wake Ashten up.
"Hello?" I say quietly into the phone.
"What the hell?" I hear Tiffany practically scream into the phone speaker making my ears hurt slightly at the loud noise..wow, what a fabulous way to wake up in the morning.
"What's wrong now?"
"Do you know where I am Kendall?" She hollers.
"Do you think I'm some sort of psychic or something? Of course I don't know where you are!"
"I just so happen to be at your house, and if you were here I'm pretty damn sure you would know that."
"Why are you at my house?!" I wonder
"I came to see if you were okay, because you ended up canceling on me lastnight and that's so not you. Why aren't you at your house?"
"Because I'm at Ashtens house."
"Ashtens." She says, as if it was a dirty word.
"Yeah, you know, my best friends house?" I say sarcastically.
"Of course you are! Why does that not seem to surprise me in the least bit?" She begins to yell again.
I don't say anything.
"Did you two have sex?" Tiffany demands.
"What?" I ask, obviously I misunderstood what she said.
"Did…you..two..have..sex?" She repeats.
"Oh my God Tiffany! Of course not? Why would you ask something as outrageous as that?" I say, trying my best to keep my voice low, but it was getting extremely hard for me to do.
"I don't believe you. Give her the phone I want to talk to her right now." She commands.
"She's sleeping." I try to reason with her.
"Wake her up than." She says in a duh tone.
"No, Tiffany why are so insecure?" I ask.
"Why are you so defensive than?" She retorts.
I feel the bed move the slightest, and I see Ash starting to wake up.
"I have to go." I tell Tiffany, and I hang up the phone.
Ashten rolls over and stretches. I look down at her and she opens her eyes. She sits up and yawns.
"Good morning." I say, giving her a smile.
"Who was that on the phone?"
"Just Tiffany." I tell her.
"Just?" Ashten says, raising her eyebrows.
"Yeah," I say shortly.
"You two okay?" She asks, sitting up, looking more awake now.
"I don't know. We've been arguing a lot." I tell her truthfully.
"I'm sorry." Is her reply back.
"Sure." I say rolling my eyes.
"I am, sure I hate her, but you hate my boyfriend too so-"
"She's not my girlfriend; she's just someone I went out with a few times."
"Right. Not your girlfriend." She says playfully giving me a smile.
"Whatever." I say laughing lightly.
"You want to talk about it?" She asks, her voice no longer playful, but serious.
Not now, we have school." I tell her, getting out of bed.
She looks at me one final time, and walks into her bathroom, grabbing some fresh clean clothes from in her closet. She changes and soon walks out. She is wearing a pair of black skinny jeans, that in my opinion look really nice on her, and a while flouncy sleeve shirt type thing and a pair of heels. Her hair is straight and shiny which is beyond crazy considering she just woke up. I don't know what the hell that stuff is on her eyelashes are called..I think eyeliner..no that's not right, either way she looks pretty beautiful wearing it.
Ashten walks over to me and gives me a hug.
"I'm here for you whenever you want to talk about it okay?" I tell her, referring to our conversation last night about her boyfriend, She just nods her head knowingly and I wrap my arms around her and hug her back.
"Thanks Kendall. Really, I mean it. Thank you."
"Anytime." I tell her.
I drive us to school, stopping at Starbucks to get Ashten a coffee and myself a Cappuccino. She begs me to get her a large chocolate chip cookie too, and so I give in and do, but I make her split half of the delicious treat with me.
