5 envelopes

~Asher~

*Veronicas POV*

My cheeks where burning from the tears that fell down them.

It seemed forever for Asher to get here. But soon enough I heard the knock on my room door.

I didn't even hear the downstairs door?
He must have sneaked in.

I slowly walked towards it with the tears still flooding my eyes. I opened the door and revealed Asher who stood there with concern on his face.

"Jesus Veronica... what happened?" His voice became soft and his concerned face grew.

I didn't say a thing I just ran into his arms. Wrapping my arms around his torso my head laying softly against his chest and I already felt comfortable.

He just accepted my response and hugged me back, his one hand resting at the back of my neck and the other around my shoulders.

Everything felt so calm and safe.

He felt like home...

Just hugging him, smelling him, being around him made everything go away.

We stood there for a while until I pulled away from the hug and looked up at him.

"Thank you..." I whispered.

~~~~~

We were now in my room. He was laying down in my bed stroking my hair and listening to me talk about my mommy issues.

I was still hugging his torso, my head rested on his chest  but as the rest of my body laid in between his legs.

Hours seemed minutes when we were like this.

We even lost track of time, but it was no problem.

But as this time passed I felt myself getting tired.

I didn't want to be disrespectful and fall asleep on his lap. I mean he still wants to go home... I think.

Asher had noticed how I was struggling to stay awake.

"Go to sleep... it's fine I'm gonna stay with you until you're ok." He whispered softly still playing with my hair.

And so as he said those words I felt myself slowly drifting away until I was fully asleep.

*next morning*

I woke up and looked around realised Asher wasn't here anymore. He must have gone home last night after I fell asleep.

I got out of bed and took a deep breath, everything felt so much better after last nights talk. I don't feel as hurt as I was last night.

I needed to get ready for school, yet again! So I hopped in the shower. It was a quick one though I just washed my hair and the rest you normally do in a shower.

I dried my self of, I put my underwear on and wrapped my hair in the towel.

I walked out the bathroom and into my room, immediately I got a fright.

Asher was sitting right there on my bed...

Shit I'm only in my underwear.

There was just awkward silence between us.

I slowly closed my door.

"I thought you left last night?" I awkwardly laugh.
"No I stayed over, I was just downstairs getting coffee for you..." He softly spoke eyeing me up and down.

It went silent again but there was something about the way he was admiring me that just caused me to blush.

"Asher?" I snap him out his thoughts and take my hair out the towel walking towards my closet.
"Why did you move? I was liking the view" he said in a "disappointing" way.
"Tough luck." I joked.

As I was looking through something to wear Asher just told a bunch of funny stories, occasionally I would pull an outfit out and showed him so he could say yes or no.

I found a nice pair of ripped tight jeans that caught my attention, my eyes lit up and grabbed it immediately.

"How about this?" I showed the tight jeans to him and a smirk slowly appeared on his face.
"It'll show off your ass and curves so yes." He teased giving me a wink.
"And I call you a friend." I teased giving a light smile.

I put the tight jeans on and a black tight crop top, I added some white sneakers and now I needed to do my make up and hair.
I didn't want to go all out on my hair and makeup so I just dried my hair and left it down, I put some mascara on and lipgloss and I was done!

I turned around to Asher and his face lit up.
"Oh to be Ian..." he whispered.

I felt the butterflies in my stomach.

Am I catching feelings?

No there's no way.

"So I'm guessing I look hot?" I smirk.
"Fuck yes!" He agreed sitting up from the bed.

We got our stuff together and walked downstairs to see my mom in the kitchen.
"Good morning darling, and Asher  I've already said good morning." She kindly smiled.

I looked at Asher who was already looking at me, I smiled at him and turned back to my mom.
"Good morning mom." I smiled back.

~~~~~~
Me and Asher had walked to school as normal we talked and laughed, just except I thanked him so many times for helping me with my mom. As we got to school we walked to our lockers put stuff away, and then got stuff we need for our first next lesson.

"I'll see you around! Gotta go catch up with the boys." He waved to me.
"See ya!" I waved back.

"Asher!" I shouted as he started walking away.
"What?" He turned around.
"Thank you!" I giggle.

He chuckled then turning back around, I went the opposite way to my next class.

And again my day went as normal.
