"Kiss me"
~Alessia

《Alessia's P.O.V》

The car ride back home was silent. Anna and I sat in the back seat as we whispered about what to do next.

I am very embarrassed that I did that photo booth act only to get a reaction out of Ashton. If this is not desperate that what else is...

I didn't exactly want to do it but I was just so tired of everything I guess.

But the feelings I got when Ashton expressed, was undeniably good. I didn't know what to say. Both me and Anna weren't able to do anything but stare at them.

We silently got down the car and went inside the house. As I was about to take the hallway to my room, Ashton's voice came from behind me.

"Alessia, come to my office." He said normally but his voice held a command that automatically took my feet towards his office.

I walked to his room hoping he doesn't think that I looked desperate and he was following me not too far behind.

I opened the door, entered inside, and stood facing his desk.

I heard him enter and shut the door.

"Alessia" he called out but I didn't turn.

"Alessia, look at me." He said a bit louder than before.

"No" I whispered.

He came and stood in front of me and I looked down.

"Why?" He asked lifting my chin, making me look at him.

"I'm sorry," I said honestly.

"Why?" He raised his eyebrow and his lip lightly curled up.
Of course, he would do that right now...

"For acting stupid and desperate" I whispered.

"That you did." He muttered while cupping my cheek with one hand and brought his thumb to my lips, lightly grazing it.

"You didn't kiss him." He asked or more like said while looking at my lips.

"No, I would never."

"Good." He rubbed his thumb over the lining of my smudged bottom lips.

"Kiss me." I whispered. His gaze shifted to my eyes, surprised by my words. Then, back to my lip. "Thought you'd never ask." He said. Me neither but Ashton Romano is fucking special. He can make anyone change their mind.

He bought his lips down on mine, instantly making the butterflies in my stomach come back to life. After a few blissful seconds, I broke the kiss and looked at him. He looked back at me skeptically, before his mind could think anything wrong, I let out-

"I like you too, always have." I said cupping his cheek and gazing at his ocean blue orbs, letting him know this is not a joke and that I do like him.

His eyes softened and his lips parted.
"Say that again."

"I like you, a lot"

He wrapped his arms around my waist and my arms went around his neck. He hugged me tightly.

"Again" he whispered.

"Mi piaci Ashton Romano, mi piaci tanto." (I like you Ashton Romano, I like you so much.)

He looked at me, our hands still around each other.

"Italian sounds damn good coming front that mouth of yours." He said grinning, I giggled.

His face became a bit serious suddenly. He removed his arms from around me and backed away, making me frown.

《Ashton's P.O.V》

"Alessia,  you should be more careful. We don't know what Hades will do, anything can happen at any time." I said, shaking my head.

"Not this again Ashton." She sighed "Nothing happened today. Hades is also not doing anything and he can't guess that I'm in Italy."

"But we can't risk it. He has been to Italy, he might have his men here. What if they see you?"

"Calm down, everything is fine." She said taking my hand in hers.

Just as she finished, the door nearly sprung open revealing a panting Luca with a phone in his hand.

"We've got a problem." He said seriously, holding his phone in front of us.

Spoke too soon petal, spoke too soon.
