Today, I finally have a day off so I use it to catch up on all the sleep I missed while at work. When I'm not sleeping I'm watching an episode or three of Gossip Girl because it's taken me so long to finish this god damn show.
While Serena and Blair are fighting for the millionth time this episode, I hear a noise from my phone signally I have a text.
Ashton: why are you avoiding me?
It's been about three days since our 'incident.' I haven't contacted him or even seen him at the club so he is kind of avoiding me too. But it's just awkward because we don't know each other well and we have been all up on each other but that's what my job is, right?
Me: you're avoiding me too..
Ashton: I just texted you didn't I? And I stopped by your house the other day but you might've been at work.
Me: oh, sorry. i probably was at work.
Ashton: are you off today or do you work later?
Me: I'm off today.
Ashton: am I allowed to come over?
Me: no
Ashton: why?
Me: bc I don't want anybody over... is that okay with you? gosh
Ashton: sorry, we'll talk another time. I didn't mean to seem clingy I just wanted to talk.
I let out a long sigh, leaning against the head board of my bed. I should let him come over but I just don't feel like talking to anyone right now. I just wanna relax because I rarely get days off.
I feel so bad to say no but it's a surprise to me I even did because I never say no. I always have to accept things when I don't have a say because that's what my job is pretty much.
I pause Gossip Girl, crawling out of bed to take a shower even though it is 2 PM and I wasn't planning on doing anything today but I feel gross so if I want to lay in bed all day might as well feel clean while doing it.
After my shower, I pull on leggings and a big T-shirt, putting on socks and putting my hair in a side braid.
I grab my phone texting Ashton to tell him to come over. I always give in no matter what and that's one thing I hate about myself. When I do say no, I eventually say yes and I can't help it.
When I hear the knock at the door I go downstairs, unlocking my door and seeing Ashton stand there with a pizza box in his hands.
He is wearing black jeans and a tank top of black boots. His hair looks so good when it's messy. He looks good no matter what and that pisses me off about him.
"Can I come in?" He eventually asks.
I sigh, stepping out of his way to let him in. I lead Ashton to my kitchen, having him set down the pizza box on the island.
I sit on the counter as Ashton stands in front of me awkwardly.
"I'm sorr-"
"You shouldn't be sorry, I should. I got you all turned on and I just can't help it." I joke.
"You're fuckin' annoying," he laughs, shaking his head at me.
"Hey! You're at my house and I can kick you out when I want to... And now sounds-"
"Shutup and let's just eats his pizza before it gets cold." He cuts me off, opening up the pizza box and picking up a slice before biting into it.
