Ashton's POV
"Would you please stop staring at gan like that, Ashton, because you are scaring ? Actually, I am bothered right now because I couldn't believe you will be acting this way. I have never seen you so smitten by a girl before, and right now, I am backing out. I will no longer compete with you. At first, I thought you weren't serious at all. That is why I was begging you to stop bothering her. But now that I have seen you look at her that way, I could tell you got it bad, buddy." Zach said as he looked at , gazing at gan the entire ti while I was sipping my coffee. And yes, what my best friend had said was all true because this is the first ti I chased a girl. I usually hide from them, but this girl intrigued , and she is like a magnet that I find so hard to stay away from, and I am determined to spend ti with her and know her.
"Of course, I will never allow you to court her, Zach." I declared.
"Don't be so confident, bro; she already turned you down." He responded, and I laughed.
"There is no guarantee she will say yes, but you need to be careful, Ashton, gan is living her life in peace, but once she will get involved with you, I can tell her life will beco chaotic." He added.
"Zach, I want you to stop worrying about gan and because I am going to make this work. I can tell she is only hesitant because she is different from all the girls that I have dated before, but I am going to make her realize that what she thought about was wrong. I can make her happy. And her life will beco more interesting from now on, and why do you think her life will be a ss once she becos my girlfriend? Do you think I can't have a good relationship with her? Co on, Zach, you must admit that I have all the charm that I need. I am Ashton Pritzgold." I said, and he shook his head.
"Yeah, you don't need to remind that you are rich and handso, buddy, and your family na alone is shining with gold, and yes, everyone on the campus knew who you are, Ashton. That is why almost every girl in our school wants to date you, and I think only gan Corteza said no to you, and once she says yes to you, I am sure your fans club will start to bother her." He declared, and I beca more curious about gan. And I can't stop myself from staring at her, and I was confident I was the reason why she was blushing because of the intense stares that I gave her, and I can't stop myself from feeling so thrilled every ti our eyes t, and her face beca redder.
When I couldn't take it anymore, I got up and went to the counter, and I placed my arms on the counter and leaned my body closer to her, and I can see her face blushed again. I asked gan when her shift will end. I felt a little hurt when instead of giving the exact answer, she asked why I need to know about her work schedule, and I am just glad Alice was there. I always see them together on campus, and they are inseparable, and I can tell they are best friends. And I felt so triumphant that Alice speaks for gan, and I learned she needed a ride in going ho.
And even if gan did not confirm that she would ride with . I told her I would be waiting for her, and I know two hours would be long enough to wait for a girl. Still, I don't care anymore, my intention of knowing her more is driving crazy, and I realized I should have given gan a simple glance, and I should have known that she can rock my world like this, and I don't think it is too late to learn her now that we are in Senior High School. We still have so much ti to know each other, and I beca more excited about where this thing will lead us, and I realized my reason for knowing her is no longer necessary now that I felt sothing I can't explain even if we only talked for a while.
We get out of the coffee shop, and I told Zach I would send him ho first because I will take gan ho, and I can tell my best friend was surprised, but he didn't ask any more questions because I can tell he was trying his best to understand . We are neighbors, and sotis he will ride with . We beca best friends because we grew up in the sa neighborhood, and we have been friends since we were in grade school, that is why we don't have secrets to each other, only this ti I keep a little secret because I don't want my best friend to hate when he learned the reason why I want to know gan in the first place. But, I am now serious about knowing her, and I am willing to forget the purpose of why I approached her a while ago.
"Thank you so much, Ashton, for taking ho, and I will not talk anymore about gan but just make sure you will not hurt her because she is different, and I know she has never been in a relationship before, and I am sure she has never been kissed and never been touched by a guy." He said, and my smile widened because I beca more interested in her, and I couldn't believe she never dated anyone.
I know I am always busy with football, and I don't have ti to mind the dating status of my fellow senior students since I already told myself I would focus on football and my studies. Still, every ti gan attended quiz balls, I always watched her because I am so fascinated by her intelligence. Still, I never expect this to happen to one day, that I will be interested in dating her because my best friend was right gan Corteza was way out of my league. I know, no one on campus will believe if I will tell them I am interested in dating her.
I drive away from Zach's house and make a way to our driveway. We are both living in the most expensive subdivision in our city, where most wealthy families live, and we are called the elite. Our subdivision is overlooking the city of Astikoz, and I live in a twelve-bedroom house with my parents and two brothers, and one sister. And we have properties all over the country and abroad since my father owns a shipping company. I grew up in luxury, and I constantly attend social events since my mother loves hosting social gatherings.
I love Isabelle, our eldest sister, and she is now in college; even if she was called a spoiled brat in our society, I still adore her because she loves , and we are very close to each other. I am the eldest among the boys. Being the eldest son, my parents expect to replace my dad in running the company the mont I finish my college education, and I know it is a big responsibility. Still, since I love football so much, I asked my father to play football professionally, but he got angry with , and that is why I hate spending ti in our house, especially if my dad is around.
I can tell my brothers are already ho since I can see Lennon's car in the driveway. I get inside and go to the kitchen and drink so orange juice, and I t my mom when I was on my way out.
"Hey, mom!" I greeted her.
"Ashton, when are you going to join dinner with us?" My mom softly asked , and I give her a sweet smile.
"I am sorry, mom, but I need to pick up soone tonight," I said, and her face lit up.
"And I can tell it is a girl because your eyes are smiling." My mom declared, and I didn't realize I am that obvious, and I nodded my head since I am close with my mother.
"When can I t this girl?" She asked, and my face fell because I am not even sure if gan will allow to court her.
"Wish luck, mom," I replied.
"Well, I don't need to wish you good luck since I know girls will naturally chase you around." She declared, and I shook my head.
"Not this ti, mom," I replied.
"Wow, that is interesting, and this is the first ti we talk about a girl, and I can't believe my handso son is having a hard ti." She declared.
"Yeah, I couldn't believe either that she will turn down, but I am not going to stop. That is why I need to leave right now, Mom." I said.
"Okay then, but be sure to be back before midnight. I know I don't need to remind you to study your lessons since even if you are a quarterback in your football team in your school, you never abandon your studies. That is why I am a proud mom." She said and hugged before she let move away from her, and I ran going out of the house and got inside my car quickly and drive away as fast as I can since I don't want to be late in picking up my future girlfriend.
As I was waiting for gan to co out of the cafe, I couldn't stop myself from feeling so nervous.. When I saw her coming in my direction, I couldn't stop myself from giving her my signature sweet smile, and I felt so overwheld with happiness when I saw her face turned crimson again, and I can't stop myself from feeling so thrilled to know her more, and I hope she will give a chance to date her.
