"You're a bad liar, Rockford."

Ronnie's P.O.V

It was a weekend & I was spending the time away from school with Seth. We were having a movie weekend in my room. It was typical for us. It wasn't like we had any other friends to hang out with or parties to attend to.

Midway through The Breakfast Club, I heard something that wasn't quite from the movie & also something I just didn't need to hear.

I could hear Ashton with another girl moaning & groaning through my window.

"Ew. That's just disgusting." I looked at Seth once I realized he had heard this as well.

"I'm sure he picked someone up from Michael's party."

"Yea." I knew that Michael was having a party this weekend so I'm sure Ashton found a girl there to bring home to add to his list of one-night stands.

A list I'd never want to be on.

"Whatever. I'll just close the window."

"Aren't you just a bit jealous?" Seth asked me, raising his eyebrow.

"Tell me, why would I ever be jealous of what's currently happening next door?"

"Because Ashton is fit & by the sounds of it, he knows what he's doing."

So maybe Seth had a point. Apparently Ashton had a lot of sex, I mean I heard quite a bit throughout the past year or so & I hated that. I hated the idea of teens just sleeping with anyone without any attachment or commitment...but then again, he had a lot of experience so Seth was right. He had to have been good.

"Regardless if he's good or not, he's Ashton & I hate him."

"You love hating him though, just admit that part at least."

"No. It actually drives me crazy. I cannot wait to just leave & never have to see his face again."

"You'll miss him."

"No Seth, I promise I won't."

"Whatever you say..."

-

"Hey, Ashton!" I yelled down the hall once I saw him Monday morning.

"What do you want? It's 7:00 in the morning on a Monday & you're already bitching at me?"

"Well, I was just wondering if maybe you could close your window next time."

Ashton's face grew a bit pink & a smile escaped his lips. "What do you mean?"

"You know what I mean. Those are not noises I want to hear."

"You're just jealous."

"No, far from it actually."

"Admit it, Ronnie. You're just jealous it wasn't you in my bed underneath me."

"No, Ashton. I am not jealous, I promise. I definitely would never want to sleep with a guy who would treat me like an object."

"Oh honey, I don't treat them like an object, I treat them like a princess...but I guess you'll never know now will you."

"I guess not. I'll never know. But I think I'll survive."

"Whatever. Whether you want to admit it or not, I'm sure you're curious what it's like to be with me." Ashton said with his voice lowered, looking right at me. "You must be just the littlest bit curious."

"I'm not."

"Look me right in the eyes & tell me you haven't once thought of sleeping with me." Ashton took a step closer, still looking right at me.
