eight: again?

avery was at the game as a cheerleader like always. liv was with chris.

avery gasped and cheered as beverly made a touchdown.

the game went on, as beverly had a comeback. jordan made the last touchdown and everyone cheered.

avery arrived home to see her mom and asher together sitting on the couch.

"mom you're here. why?"

"just thought i'd visit before i go to france. by the way asher will be living with us for a while."

"yeah ok. why are you really here? c'mon you never come and visit." avery fakely smiled.

"fine. i just wanted to see what you're up to." lucy said.

"well you missed homecoming. you missed all my cheerleading games. i got hurt. i called you didn't answer. so yeah."

"you're a bad mom. you don't want to check up on me. you want something." avery added.

lucy sighed, "i want your money your dad gave you when you left."

"no." she had all the money her dad gave transferred in cash because she knew at some point her mom would try and take it.

"ok then explain how you got hurt." lucy said. "you wouldn't believe me."

"try me."

"fine. i was sexually assaulted. i was groped by a man."

"funny." lucy chuckled. judging by avery's face she wasn't joking.

asher sat down listening. "i was grabbed by a man at a party. it was asher's party. he pulled me into a room and touched me. he shoved a pill down my throat. i left with bruises around me."

"liar let me see."

"oh my god seriously! this is why i don't tell you these things." avery yelled. "fine."

she walked to the kitchen grabbing a towel and water. going over to the pair wiping the makeup off.

she had shorts and a shirt so she had it covered. after cheer she changed into comfy clothes. then avery took off her shirt showing her bra. and her back faced lucy and asher.

asher quietly gasped. avery turned around putting her shirt back on, "that's what you wanna see?"

lucy was silent. "now i'm exhausted from cheer. i'm leaving." avery went upstairs.

asher went to go check up on avery. he knocked. "who is it?"

"asher." he responded. "come in." asher entered and saw avery in her bed laying down.

she sat up and pat the bed for him to sit. "i'm sorry. i didn't-"

"asher it's fine. there was no way you could've known."

"is that why layla asked for my jacket?" asher asked and avery nodded.

"who was it?" asher asked. "this guy josh, i don't know."

avery went to go meet layla at the cafe. "i need to talk to you and you can say no." layla then nodded.

"me and asher have been talking. and i know you and him dated and-" avery started.

"oh my god go for him.  you asked me, and considerate of my feelings. and i have noticed asher's attention was towards you. you and him would be a fit pair, i like it."
