It's Okay Not To Be Okay

Fun and games

~Brooke's POV~

I just woke up when I felt something cold on my thigh, I looked to my right and saw Ashers head on my shoulder, his fluffy hair was covering his eyes and forehead so I couldn't see any part of his face.

I tried sitting up so I could be more comfortable but Ashers hand moved from my thigh to my waist and pulled me closer towards him making us sit in a hugging position, his head was in the crook of my neck his breath sending shivers down my body.

A hostess approached us and told me we would be landing soon and that we needed to put on our seatbelts but Asher Growled and the hostess walked away scared, I laugh and Asher lifts his head from my neck and looks at me deeply in the eyes, he smiles upon seeing me laugh, he puts his head back to where it was.

"I knew they were fucking" someone said from beside us, "you owe me $500" "oh shut up" the two people beside us kept talking, Asher raised his head and I looked to my side, "what about you guys" Asher growled at them "what about us?" Greyson and Chloe spoke at the same time, "don't act innocent, I can hear you from my room bro" Asher glared at his brother.

Chloe looked flustered and walked away with Greyson following behind her, "really?" I questioned not knowing about what I just heard, Asher nodded and kissed my forehead as he stood up, I stood up and walked out with him.

"Oh yay, she survived" I said with sarcasm, Asher left my side to talk to some gaurds, I watched Brittany let go of Oliver's hand and walk closer towards me, "walk any closer and you'll end up in a wheel chair this time" I spoke glaring at her, she stopped and backed away hiding behind Oliver.

We all got assigned to our cars and drove to the new base, Asher didn't ride with me though.

We got to the new house and we all went inside and settled in. I decided to sleep since my sleep was interrupted earlier.

5 hours later

"Brooke" I hear a voice say.

"Brooke"

"BROOKE"

"What the fuck do you want" I snap, I open my eyes and see Grayson looking at me, he rolls his eyes and motions for me to follow him.

The only thing I was wearing were shorts and Asher's shirt, I stood up and followed Grayson. He led me through the halls and I wasn't sure what time it was but it was dark.

He led me into an office and then left. I looked around and the office was huge, there was a beautiful big black oak desk in front of a huge window that spread across from the left side of the office to the right and from the ceiling to the beautiful wooden floors, since it was night I couldn't really see what the window looked over but I noticed movement under it. The offices design was very beautiful and the grey and black in the office blended perfectly.

As I was admiring the office, the office door opened again and Asher walked in, he was wearing black sweatpants that hung low on his waist, I could see his v line.

"Eyes are up here love"

I look at him and he walks closer to me, "you can walk again" he said smiling "barely" I scoffed.

He led me to his desk and he sat down in his chair and started showing me footage from the house back in L.A, I was standing right next to him but I was uncomfortable standing.

Asher must've noticed because what he did next was, he held my waist with one hand and sat me down on his lap. His one hand was on the keyboard of his laptop and the other sitting on my waist. He paused the footage and there was a Ginger haired man standing in the hallway of our old house, the guy was tall and had a lip ring and he smoked a cigarette carelessly.

"Dmitri Ivanov"

My jaw clenches when I see him. "You know him?" Asher asks "of course I know this asshole, he's a rapist and an idiot" I say.

"Did he.." Asher speaks, "not me but a very close friend of mine, that sick bastard raped her and made her end up in the hospital, she nearly died from a stroke but luckily pulled through" I said my thumbnail digging into my hands skin. "Despite him being a sexual predator, he has no experience in leading a mafia and has a brain of a pea, however his father still handed his mafia down to him" I said.

Asher nodded and then closed his laptop, he took me off from his lap and walked to the office door, he turned to me, "let's go to bed" I walked to him and we both left the office and walked to Asher's room. His room was bigger than the room I was in, once again.

His room was grey and white, the bed sat in the middle of the room but more to the far north side, he had a large window that showed you a view of the stars, he had a few plants in the room but there was a specific plant that caught my attention, by the window sat a black orchid.

"You always loved this flower, but I forgot the meaning"

Mystery, power and sophistication

I looked at Asher and smiled at him, out of our whole group, he was the only person to notice that black orchids were my favourite flower.

"I never did like flowers, but this one always seemed to draw me into it"

I laughed and turned around, "mystery, power and sophistication" I said smiling at the flower, "when I turned 16, I vowed to live by those words. Never let anyone know what's going on with you, always be dominant and overpower those around you, no matter what always be sophisticated and never show your flaws" I said turning around to face him.

He walked to me and gently cupped my face as he kissed me softly but passionately. After a while he pulled way from the kiss he patted my head and lead me to bed.

We sat in a cuddling position and looked into each others eyes, his eyes were full of awe and joy. He kissed me one more time and we went to sleep.

My heart?
