Chapter 48

Once again sorry for the long wait on the last chapter.

August 6th

Grayson- 4 months

Atlas's POV

  A week... a week more to go.  Fuck. I've literally been laying in bed this whole week. Occasionally hanging out with Gray or EJ.  Oh and then Seren forced me into a lesson.  I'm never fucking cussing again this is so stupid.

My door opens and I stare in disgust not wanting to socialize. The look quickly drops as Asher closes my door rushing over to me.  "I've missed you" he whispers jumping into my arms.  "Damn I've missed you so much" I mumble squeezing him.

"Have you been drinking the smoothies I make?" I ask playing with one of his curls. He smiles shaking his head yes repeatedly.  Not even a minute later he quickly works his way out of my grasp getting off the bed.

"I should go now, I'm sorry" he whispers as I jump off the bed following him. "Please, no" I beg, his face softens as he looks between me and the door. I give him an innocent smile, but it turns to one of panic as footsteps approach the door.

Quickly I shove my boyfriend towards the closet. "Back in the closet, you go!" I whisper while he goes to close the door. "Don't make me laugh" he mumbles back and I run to jump on my bed.

The door opens as I'm midair and I land on the bed with a big oof. "Are you okay?" Papa asks, Grayson looking over at me, his head occasionally lifting off his chest just to fall back down.

"Just peachy" I smile making Papa frown. "Drop the attitude" he warns me as I throw my hands up in surrender. Grayson's eyes light up and he raises his arm and looks back at me. "Yeah that's Atlas he's your big brother, a total pain sometimes" Papa giggles kissing the top of the baby's head.

Gray smiles bringing his hand back to his mouth gurgling. "Anyways, I was going to ask if you stole Asher, but I see you haven't which is good" he peeks around the room.

"Why?" I question him wondering if he was in trouble. "Ivy and Iris are looking for him" Papa answers rubbing the baby's back. "Oh okay," I nod as he smiles at me. "I can't wait for this week to be over I need some Atler time in my life" he smirks jumping on to the ship name His and Ron's daughters had made for us.

"Then let's just forget about this punishment and call it off" a hint of hope in my voice.  "Schools coming up, make sure you tell me if you need anything" he smiles closing the door. "I love you" he reminds me as I nod folding my arms into a pout.  "I love you too"

I wait a few minutes before turning towards my closet "you can come out" I whisper-shout, and Ash comes out of the closet, stumbling over clothes. "Sorry" he mumbles picking up a shirt and hanging it back up.

"Someone's being a trouble maker" I smirk as he hurries over his eyes not leaving the floor. "I know, I didn't mean to, I wanted to do something- but I don't think I can" he whispers shyly crawling onto the bed.

I give him a curious look as he sits in front of me on his knees. I grab his hand and he looks up at me hesitantly. "What are you so nervous about?" I ask with a smile. He doesn't answer shifting forward a bit.

"I don't want you to get in trouble, I should probably go" he sighs going to turn away. "Hey it's fine, you've intrigued me. Might as well go for it" I chuckle and he nods refusing to make eye contact. Lifting himself up on his knees, he leans in for the kiss.

I meet halfway as I smirk into the lips that I had missed so much. His hands go to my shoulder, one fumbling with my collar as I pressed one of mine against his back the other going to cup his arse.

He lets out a short breath as I did that, but doesn't pull away. "O-okay" he stutters keeping our mouths a few inches from each other. "What's up," I ask licking my lips.

"I'm just going to do- it's going to be bad- I'm sorry" he starts to ramble. I rub his back giving him a small peck. "Go for it" I smirk wanting to see what was getting him so riled up.

He nods terror in his eyes. He quickly closes his eyes pressing his lips back onto mine. I kiss back ready for him. Not even a second later his mouth leaves mine, and I sigh.

My eyes flung open as his swollen lips kiss down my neck. The same hand that had been playing with my collar now held the shirt back. I chuckle as his kisses got lower until he found the open spot.

He kisses the spot before suddenly sucking on it. My breath hitches and I tighten my grip on the tiny human. "Mmm," I let out a satisfied noise my head dropping back. He continues this his tongue swirling over the spot again and again.

"Fuck- how are you so- mmm" I groan in pleasure as he goes back to sucking on it. His lips parting from my skin with a pop. Not even a second later he's hiding his face into my chest.

"Damn..." I just stay stunned for a second rubbing his back as I close my eyes still imagining his lips on my neck. "How did you do that so good" I mumble picking Asher up to look at me.

He adverts his eyes with a shy smile. "I made Em teach me" he whispers his face red from embarrassment. "What why!?" I ask pinning him on the bed with a laugh. He lets out a little squeak, and I kiss his nose and all over this face.

"S-something for you to remember me by for the week" he giggles as I chuckle at his cheesy gesture. "Or you could just... not leave me" I laugh smothering his face in more kisses.  "I'm sorry, I have to go..." he continues through his fit of giggles trying to get out of my grip.

"You heard my Papa schools going to start soon, I'm going to go into a depression" I cry not getting any sympathy from my boyfriend.  Instead, his face seems to drop again as he looks away.  "What's wrong?" I ask cupping his face.

"There's a few things worrying me" he sighs sitting up.  I let him, my hand falling from his face. "Angel you can tell me anything" I assure him.  He nods biting his lip nervously. 

"Do you think Thomas hates me" I cringe at the name.  "Hate that guy" I express my feelings getting a look from Ash.  Sucking up my pride I look over to him again. "No, trust me Thomas does not hate you, and if he is going to be a good friend he will put me being a bitch aside" I smile lying straight through my teeth.

Ash doesn't seem to notice my fake liking for the guy, and his smile brightens, that's good. I genuinely smile again at his cute adorable face. It quickly drops again mine mirroring his.

"What else is bothering you?" I ask, my hand going back to his cheek. "Do you not remember what's happening this year?" He asks his eyed locking with mine. "What?" I hate myself for being so clueless.

"The tournament" he grumbles his hand going over mine. "Ohhhh" I reply getting a look in response. "You aren't still thinking of doing it right?" He asks as my lips part not really sure how to answer.

"Ash, this will be my last year, my last chance" I try to explain getting a hurt look instead. "You can't" his voice getting quieter. "It's going to be fine, you heard them it's safer" I chuckle rubbing my thumb up and down his cheek. His hand dropping from mine.

"You can't possibly believe them!" His voice grows as he tries to talk me out of it. "Hey, I'm strong, I got this" I chuckle. "Why are you freaking out so much, nothing is going to happen" I shrug my shoulders getting another hurt look from Ash.

"What if you get hurt, or the twins, Em? I know they all want to do it?!" He huffs scooting away from me. "Angel?" I call after, following him off the bed. "I've got to go, Iris and Ivy want me" he whispers going towards the door.

I lunge after him grabbing his arm. He stops and looks at me again his expression obviously sad. Leaning over I place my forehead on his. "Thank you" I let out in a hushed voice. Grabbing his hand, I place it on the fresh mark he had made.

"Let's talk about this later, I promise I'll listen" I reassure him. And he nods going on his toes to give me a quick peck.

"I'm sorry for making you upset, I love you so much"

"It's alright, I love you too"
