chap II

'Damn, I don't even know his name.'

...

The day went by faster than you thought it would. Way too many visitors, changing one after the other, time after time, hour after hour.

'Nice job, Mrs. Golden Hands.' You heard a little deep chuckle from the behind, which, to be honest, you don't know yet wether scared you or made you smile.

'Oh, yeah, that's me. And thanks.' You replied, after what he suddenly spoke:

'Wanna drink?'

...What?

'Hey? Cat got your tongue?' He asked as he noticed the obvious question in your eyes. 'Don't worry, i just wanted to, you know, talk, get to know my new employee better.'

'I-' It was kinda unexpected for you, but you pulled yourself together. 'Yeah, why not?'

'Good then.' He started before he took the glass out of your hands and the dark scarlet drink poured into two elegant glasses. 'Cheers?'

'Cheers!' You said and your glasses clashed into each other.

To your surprise, he turned out to be a versatile person, he loved writing and reading. Books were his passion. He told you a lot about his favorite books and the place where he adores to spend his free time, the New York Public Library.

He honestly seemed to be hiding something, when you asked him about his family or friends he kept slipping away from the questions.

'And then Yut Lung was like 'Haha you can' and so that's how I ended up here.'

'You an' Yut seem to be pretty close, huh?' He said with a grin. 'Are ya two datin'?'

'He's... Not my type. And I'm not his... favorite gender.'

'Oh-... I see.'

The world was spinning around you, head was empty and you could barely stand on your feet.

'Hey, are you okay? You're already drunk?' The blondie was clearly worried. 'You want me to take you home?'

'Who are you?'

...Why did I ask it THAT way!?

'I'm- a human?' The confusion was filling his mind.

'No, your name.'

'What do you-... Oh! Did i really not tell you my name yet?' He fixed his shirt and began to speak once again. 'Sorry about that, it's Ash. Ash Lynx.'

'Finally I got to know the name of the beauty.' You said, evidently not understanding what exactly you're saying.

'Of... the beauty?' The note of something went through his eyes.

...Was it disappointment?

         Or something else?

'Where do you live?' He wanted to finish everything as soon as possible.

'I don't know the name of the street, but I know that It's a shithole.'

Apparently, he began to loose his patience.

'Then I'm leaving you here. Bye bye.' He turned around and headed to the exit with his chin being raised as if he was trying to show the way how mad he is.

..Aww.

'No~~~ Don't leave me here~!' You ran to his back.

You don't give a damn if he will think you're a lonely bored weird woman who is also drunk.

'Let go off me! I'm leaving!'

'Take me to your place then, it's better than the bar-r~!'

...Did I just ask him to—

'Okay.' It didn't take him too long to decide. 'But I don't have the women clothes.'

'Ya-ay~ Thank You So So So So Much!' You started to bow down to show the amount of appreciation for him.

'Thank me later.' He said and picked you up to carry you to the car. 'I will regret it, but how can I leave a drunk girl in the bar?'

He gently placed you in the car and moved to his apartment. It was a high building in some kind of a rich area. He lived on the 20th floor, which is insanely high for you, you've been living on the 1-4th floors for your entire life after all.

Ash pushed the door with his leg and carried you all the way to the bed.

'I'm gonna leave some water and pills in case you'll have the hangover.' Ash glanced at you quickly for the last time and went to his lovely couch .

It's the first time someone sleeps in his apartment. And, even if that one person is you, a drunk girl who doesn't remember the name of her street, it still feels good, less lonely.

You don't know why, how and where you are going to, but it's too cold.

You fell on the couch and, god, it's way warmer and better here.

'(Y/N)!!! For the fuck's sake! What are you doing!?' Ash yelled from under your back. 'Go back to the bad!'

'But you're warm.'

'And you're heavy and now gonna crash all of my organs!' He complained and got out of the couch. 'If you wanna sleep here, then go ahead, but not with me yet.'

...Did he just say yet?-

'Good night.' Ash disappeared in the doorway leaving you alone in the dark
cold room again.

'Well okay!!!'  You yelled back and fell asleep right after that, you were too exhausted.
