"Was Luke lying or wasn't he lying?" Nathalie asked Ashton after they kept silence for a great few minutes. She heard Ashton chuckle and he shrugged.
"Don't act like you don't know," Nathalie giggled. Ashton ran his fingers through his messy hair and then looked at her before he got back to the road in front of him again.
"He...lied actually. I was sure he said that so he could sit with Sylvia and smooch her," Ashton joked and Nathalie laughed. Well, that was a great excuse from Luke then.
Luke pulled Ashton's hair from behind and then said, "Ehm, Ashton, if you don't know anything, please don't say anything that is not true. Thank you very much."
"Sorry if I interrupted your smooching session, Lucas."
"Ash, we weren't smooching," Sylvia spoke suddenly when everybody thought she was asleep.
"Yet, Syl?" Nathalie teased and Sylvia just rolled her eyes at her.
"Okay, stop that. Leave them alone," Ashton laughed and patted Nathalie's thigh, Nathalie chuckled then she looked straight to the front again, looking at the empty road with some damaged cars and dead bodies. Oh that's not empty at all actually. They didn't find a lot of zombies this time and that's a good thing but also a weird thing. Seeing a place with no zombies was bizarre to them since that they meet zombies almost everytime a day and everywhere.
"If what Luke said was right, what would you feel?" Ashton asked making Nathalie looked at his way. He had one hand on the steering wheel and he ruffled his hair with his free hand making it more messy than before.
"A bit...shocked," Nathalie said truthfully. Ashton glanced at her and a smirk grew on his face. "Because I would be asking why do you want me to sit here?" she inquired. Ashton cleared his throat before answering her question.
"Well, maybe because I hate when Luke sat beside me, he's annoying--"
"Hey! That's not true! You love me, Ashton Irwin!" Luke suddenly interrupted. Ashton shook his head a little and chuckled.
"Because I think you're a fun person and did I tell you that I like you?" Ashton smiled but he didn't look at her. Nathalie blushed at his sentence and she tried to hide it by looking out the window. Ashton already said that actually. Back to the time when they were in the cabin. It was only him, her, and Leslie in the room and he just said that to her easily like there's no problem at all when saying it.
"Sorry to make you blush," she heard Ashton chuckled and she felt him ruffle her hair making her cheeks felt hotter than before. It's burning. Her cheeks were burning. Well, that's dramatic but true.
"I wasn't blushing," Nathalie defended herself and she was actually pretty sure that Ashton couldn't see her face because it was dark since it's already night.
"I could see you're grinning and yes, your cheeks are red, honey," Ashton poked her cheek making her flinched then laughed. That was sweet actually. "You're adorable, Nath," Ashton smiled and looked at her for a few seconds.
"Well, thanks, Ash. I like you too," Nathalie responded but Ashton didn't know what did she mean with like. Was it like-like like how he feels for Nathalie or just an ordinary like?
"Thanks," Ashton said finally to her.
On the back of the van, Michael was sitting next to Joy but they weren't sitting on the seats. They were leaning back to the separator between the back side of the van and the front seats. Joy was sleeping and being the typical Michael, he poked her waist with his finger making her woke up to a grinning Michael beside him.
