BENEATH THE STARS

Get the hell away from him

Chapter 31: Get the hell away from him

Here you go guyss...

Josh's pov:

We had just returned from our sightseeing. I was lying on the bed while Ash was in Phil's room. Yeah, we were gonna share the room but the last time we did that, he'd cuddled me and trust me, though it was a good sleep we've had, I was not up for another night with him holding me that tightly.

I was gonna go out for a stroll with him after having a cup of coffee. It was nice here, though not like home, I'd have come here for summer breaks if I'd have known mom was here. But more so, I'd have gone to her when I was scared, when I was confused, when I just needed someone to listen to me. I'm kinda glad I met her, and I really want her to come back... where she belongs.

"Hey babe," Ash called as he entered my room... without knocking.

"I see you've forgotten your manners, Ashy."

"If you think I'll knock while coming into your room, I really feel that you should think again."

"What if I was... with Kate?"

"But I know you are not."

"Why do I always choose to waste my time talking with you?"

"Cuz you lovee mee!!" he said jumping on me.

"Sure babe," I said as I tried to get up.

"What do you think you are doing??"

"Trying to get your huge ass body off me."

"Well don't. I wanna cuddle."

"Why... weren't we gonna go for a walk."

"Yeaa, let's do that after we cuddle."

"I don't wanna!!"

"Whyyy... I give best cuddles."

"That's what you think Ashy... you are literally smashing my bones."

"Well I'm sorry you don't like my cuddles," he said getting off me and laying beside me.

"It's quite alright."

"You are a meanie!"

"I know that."

"I don't like you very much right now."

"The feeling is mutual, my friend."

"Ughh... just shut up."

"As you wish," I say as I continue scrolling on my phone. I swear my fingers have walked more than I have in my life.

"Joshhh!!"

"....."

"Talk to me!!"

"....."

"Meaniee," he said as he snatched my phone from my hands.

"Heyy!"

"Stalking your girlfriend I see."

"I don't need to stalk her... I was just watching her pics with her old hair... they looked nicer than her new one."

"Well, she could always change them if you tell her so."

"And I won't cuz she likes them."

"But you don't."

"That doesn't mean she can't do what she wants. She can color her hair with whichever color she likes as long as it's her hair and not mine. Actually... I don't mind getting my hair colored in her favorite color if she wants."
