RECAP:Asher laced his fingers with mine, and gave me a reassuring squeeze, which made me relax instantly. I saw Dan quickly glanced at me, then talked with my dad, who looked troubled to answer a question. That rarely happens. They’re planning something I already know it.
“Ok, why are you guys talking about me?” I bluntly asked.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about.” They all said in unison.
Yeah right! I gave them the ‘don’t mess with me’ look.
“Ok! Ok!” Karen cracked first. “We were talking about you.”
“We?” My dad asked.
“Yeah, we did,” Dan admitted.
“You’re not supposed to tell them that!”
“Well, what were you guys saying that was so secretive?” I waved my hands around. They looked at each other confirming if they were gonna tell me. “Well?”
Dan took Karen’s hand. Oh geez. How serious is this? “We were saying…” saying…? “ We were saying how cute you and Asher would look together as a couple.”

Chapter Two
(read at end VERY IMPORTANT)“WHAT!?” I yelled first.
Asher started laughing, put his arm around the back of my chair, and then smirked, “Already marrying me out mom?” He laughed again.
Jace snorted, “You wish.” Which Asher shot him a glare.
“Oh, honey! Think about how their kids could be!” My mom said gleefully.
KILL ME NOW! I thumped my head on the table. “Not too soon now Kathleen. My baby’s not old enough to even get that attention yet.”
I groaned, and Asher squeezed my hand again. “You guys are even holding hands!” Karen shrilled.
I stood up abruptly. “Ok! I think this conversation has came to an awkward downturn for me. I’m turning in early. It was lovely meeting you, Dan and Karen. I’ll see you later Isabelle.” I turned to Asher, “Goodbye.” With that, I walked out of the room, and into the shower.
The scolding water felt as if it was peeling away all the HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE, things that were beginning to happen. It was like I was washing away embarrassing moments along with bad things.
I got out of the shower about 30 minutes later. I put on my underwear and bra, then wrapped a towel around myself, and combed gently through my hair. Then suddenly, the door opened revealing Jace. He leaned against the door frame, looking pissed off, “I need to use the shower.” He said impatiently.
“Jace!” I screeched, “I could have been naked!”
“I don’t mind. Now I need to use the shower.” Even more impatiently. I bent over to pick my clothes up, and when I came up, I saw his expression. He looked slightly stunned, and out of it. Why is he…My eyes widened. He saw my butt! I flushed crimson red instantly.
