gan's POV
I stopped myself from feeling so worried, and I chose to enjoy myself with Ashton. The mont he took to my favorite place in the city, I couldn't stop myself from feeling so happy since he made an effort to know what my favorite breakfast food was. And I hate myself for hoping this is more than just a study session, and I felt so thrilled and excited about where we are going to spend our entire day.
The mont we arrived in the pancake house, I felt my mouth water right away, and I knew it was a simple food for others, but pancake has been my all-ti favorite since I was a kid. My mom always made pancakes when I was a little girl. But my happiness was cut short when I saw my brother strode in our direction, and I wanted to run and hide, but Dexter already saw .
As he walked closer to us, I could feel the pounding of my heart against my chest, and when Ashton saw the horrified expression I had, I could tell right away he was alard, and I could see the worries on his face after he turned around and found Dexter moving towards us. He quickly took my hands over the table and squeezed them, and I knew he was sending a silent ssage telling everything would be alright.
I felt so scared because I didn't want them to fight each other again since I know we can't trust if no one will take a video of him since I have seen so of our fellow students dining in the pancake house, and I am sure they will take video once they realized Ashton was in trouble. I know Ashton has a good reputation for being a famous athlete, an outstanding student, and he was admired by almost all the students in our Academy, including our teachers. I don't want my brother to be the reason he will get into trouble, and we will lose our chance to be together again because once his father finds out about us being together, I know I will never be with him forever.
I can feel the trembling of my legs as I see my brother getting closer, and even if Ashton assured he would take care of everything, I still feel terrified of what would happen. I almost kissed and hugged my brother when he didn't say anything against us, except he only warned Ashton never to hurt again, and I couldn't stop myself from feeling so relieved and delighted when Dexter told he only wanted to be happy.
I enjoyed my ti eating my pancake while I felt so amused by the way Ashton looked at as I ate my al. And I could tell he enjoyed watching eat my food. I felt conscious, but I couldn't stop eating the delicious pancake in front of , and the hot chocolate completed my day.
And the most beautiful thing happened when Ashton asked to be his girlfriend again, and I said yes right away since I didn't want to play hard to get anymore. I want to be with him, and I don't want to be miserable again. I want us to be happy and worry about his father later. Making out with Ashton in his car after eating breakfast was sothing I didn't anticipate would happen. My entire limbs felt jelly, and I couldn't stop thinking about the hot kisses we shared as we moved away from the pancake house.
I couldn't stop my fingers from touching my swollen lips, and I couldn't contain myself from blushing every ti I caught Ashton staring at , and then he held my hand. We didn't talk, but I could see the beautiful smile on his face, and I could tell he was also having a good ti, and I felt so happy that he begged to take him back. I don't care if I will suffer from my decision as long as I feel satisfied and content. When I looked outside, I could tell we were now leaving the city of Astikoz, and I knew there are lots of estates on the south owned by wealthy families all over the country, and no wonder Ashton's grandparents are now living in their estate.
"Thank you, g," Ashton said, and I turned my head so I could look at him. And he glanced at before he returned his eyes on the road, and I felt him squeeze my hand.
"For what?" I asked, and I couldn't stop the knots on my stomach as I could feel his palm tightly gripping my hand.
"I want to say thank you for giving another chance to be with you. You make so happy right now, g." He said, and I smiled at him as I squeezed his hand back.
"I am happy too, and you too, thank you for making feel this way," I replied.
"Is it okay if you bring to your grandfather's house?" I asked, and I couldn't stop myself from feeling so worried.
"Don't worry, gan, I am sure you will love my grandfather, and I am also certain he will gonna love you." He responded.
"Are you sure about that, Ashton?" I asked, and he bead at .
"I am more than one hundred percent sure he will like you, gan, because I am my grandpa's favorite because he loves football like ." He replied, and I could feel the enthusiasm in his voice, and I felt guilty that I never supported him during any of his gas. I want to watch Ashton because I always heard he was the best among all the football players in our school, but I am so busy chasing my dream, and I forgot to enjoy myself even for a while.
"Don't you like football, gan?" He asked, and I suddenly felt my throat dried since I didn't know how to answer him, and I didn't want him to think that I didn't give him my support.
"I don't know, Ashton, but one thing I am sure, I don't hate football," I replied, and he laughed.
"The truth is, I never got the chance to watch since I was always busy with my part-ti jobs. Oscar asked to co with him so many tis, and I want to watch you play." I said.
"Really? Even before I beca your boyfriend?" He asked, and I nodded, and I think I don't need to lie to Ashton anymore.
"Yes, and please don't laugh at . I wanted to watch you play football because you have been my long-ti crush, Ashton. And I am proud to admit I was among those girls who wanted to date you." I said, and I felt shy about it, but when Ashton looked at with a wide grin on his face, I never regretted I told him about it, and he stole a quick kiss on my lips.
"Wow! Now I beca happier. I couldn't believe that gan Corteza, the brightest student in the Astikoz Academy, has been crushing on , and I want you to know this information made feel more confident." He said.
"Don't say that. I know you have overloaded self-confidence because you've got it all," I replied.
"Now, I could tell I am contented, gan, because I have you back. After you broke up with , I have been thinking of a way how to win you back, but I got frustrated because I know you were trying your best to avoid ." Ashton said.
"I am sorry. In reality, I wanted to be with you. But I was scared if I would get hurt, and I am so jealous of Lauren." I said, and I could feel my face turn so red, and he let go of my hand, and he pulled my head so I could lean on his shoulder, and then he gently caressed my face.
"You don't need to get jealous with her, gan, and I know I hurt you because I spent more ti with Lauren after you broke up with . And now that you take back, I need to tell you the truth as well. I was trying my best to protect you, and I knew if Lauren was with , she couldn't hurt you." Ashton said, and I felt so touched. And I realized if I had only known, I would haven't spent my ti hating Ashton for being with Lauren after we broke up.
"I am aware Lauren was the reason for the locker incident, and you lost your job in the cafe because of her. And I know she was trying her best to hurt you in any way she could, and I am also aware her friends did those things to you because Lauren asked them to humiliate you." He said.
"I am sorry that because of , you got hurt, gan." Ashton added, and I was shocked that he knew everything. And then, Ashton took my hand on his mouth, and he kissed my knuckles. And I can feel the butterflies on my stomach, and I can't stop the racing of my chest, and his proximity is giving goosebumps all over my skin. And it feels so good to be near him.
"Don't worry, it was all nothing compared to the happiness that I feel right now, Ashton," I said, and he leaned his head on my head. At the sa ti, he put my arm around his waist, and I never felt so close with Ashton, and I can't describe the happiness that I felt as I slled Ashton's masculine scent, and he slled good that I want to be in this position forever.. And he continued to drive in silence with a beautiful smile on his face while I couldn't stop my heart from dancing with too much happiness.
