I watched in awe, as Ashton just..  walked out. But I was impressed, thinking he is a bad boy. I liked it.

After another 40 minutes of bullshit, it's lunch time. I place my stuff in the very far corner of the cafeteria, alone as always, but just the way I like it. I grab a pizza slice, but that's it, not caring if I have to have "at least 3 things on my plate". No thanks, expired milk is gross.

I hand the lady at the desk a 5 dollar bill and go take a seat at my table. Beautiful silence, no animals, no gossip. Just silence.

Until.

"Hey, uh, can I sit here?" says a high manly voice.

"Are you talking to me, ding dong?" I say turning around then gasping.

"Oh my god, I'm sorry, I'm just really anti -social and.. yeah." I say quickly apologizing and moving my stuff. What. Have. I. Done.

"No it's alright, I'll just sit somewhere else, I'm Ashton by the way;" Ashton says walking away.

"No wait! Please, come sit, I don't mind at all." I say, sounding a little bit too desperate I realized, immediately blushing.

"Ok then," he clicks his tongue, and takes a seat beside me. I don't know what it is, but its like he radiates warmth. Its so peaceful.

I sneak a look at him, then quickly turn away. I'm probably receiving so many looks right now, but I could care less.

I'm sitting next to my own personal heater, oh joy.
