Our Second Chance [AshEiji]

3

[Eiji Okumura]

I couldn't stop staring, am I making it obvious that I am curious about him? Hope he didn't notice, that would be weird. I hope what happened in my school doesn't happen here, God please don't.

"Eiji," Shorter called once again. "Come on, Ash already left." He commented with a slight sigh.

Ash? Why does that name sounds familiar? Ash? It also sounds pretty for no reason.

"Oh, yeah, sorry." I apologized slightly and went with him. "Also, who?"

"I'll present you, relax." Shorter spoke grabbing my wrist as soon as I had my backpack on me and everything in it.

We both went to the library, that I didn't know they have! It smells nice. As soon as I saw him, those feelings came back is like I know him, but not just saw him once in the supermarket, not that type of know him, is as if we were something before. Like when you see someone who used to to be your bestfriend or boyfriend but fall apart and you see each other again , that exact same feeling.

When he saw me is as if time stopped and is only me and him. Right this second, we are the only ones in this library. I want to hold his hand.

"Ash!" Yelled Shorter making both of us surprised, I know he felt that same way too because in his eyes there was surprised. "I brought Eiji with me!"

"Uh, hi." I spoke, "I am Eiji Okumura, nice to meet you." I extended my hand towards him, even though I have this feeling I won't hug him or something.

"Hello," he took my hand and shake it. I felt chills and this small spark, like it was meant to be. "My name is Aslan, but I prefer Ash." He winked at me and got quite close towards me. "Nice to meet you," he said almost in a whisper closer to me with a small smirk.

"Ash!" Shorter got between us and hugged me while yelling at Ash for his flirting session, by his reaction isn't something new. "Don't scare him away!"

"I'm not," he replied crossing his arms. "Anyway, how about you leave Eiji so we can get to know him?" He suggested.

"Don't try anything." Shorter slowly let me go and place his hand on my shoulder with a smile.

"I would never," he exclame dramatically with a smirk. "I any case, Eiji, you are from..?" he asked waiting for me to answer.

"Japan," I answered and with that the conversation went going smoothly.

It all feels natural, Shorter laugh is contagious and Ash's smile is hard to get but he has this bright when he smiles is quite cute.

The conversation went on, I did collect some information from both of them. Ash is supposedly the scary guy of the school, Shorter is his best friend but won't pick a fight unless you provoke him or fight with Ash, but I don't get it. What is it about then that is scary? They are the sweetest and funniest, why would people be scared?

They warned me about this guy named Arthur a horrible person, if they hate him he most be worst than horrible and they have another friend that transfer schools his name is Sing Soo-Ling, but there are rumors he was dating a senior Lee Yut Lung. Nothing confirmed though.

The day continue, we shared each other's numbers and socials just to keep in contact. There are still the murmured I keep listening everytime I get to class. I hate it, because it is always when I am around I do wonder who it may be about.

We got to the end of classes, for the moment and got lunch time. I dispiced it when I was in my previous school, it was always me alone but this time I have Shorter and Ash, who are really nice guys.

For this few moments I only saw Ash in the library, Shorter isn't here yet. That means is just me and the guy I stared a lot in class because I can't keep this feeling like Si know him but I don't.

"Ashu," I called him, as soon as his name got out of my mouth he inmediately giggled.

"What did you just call me?" He said while giggling.

I sat down in from of him, leaving my backpack by my side. "Your name?" I answered confused with a smile.

He really has a cute smile.

Ash after some slight giggles eventually stopped and simply nodded. "Okay, sorry, I just love how you say my name."

After such encounter we talked for some moments. It was something around the sense of me coming to this school, how has everything been since I got here, and the question I got most scared at came up

"Why did you transfer schools?"

Most the time I lied to that question but my body won't let me, my mouth won't open until I tell the truth. It would be a small white lie, but is like I have to say the truth to him.

"You don't have to tell me if it's too bad, though." He continued looking away. "I'll just assume you killed someone and came here looking for your next victim." He said exaggerating his scary expressions.

I laughed. "You wish," I answered but am not sure I can tell him the truth. "Well, the truth is I had some issues in the school so my parents decided to send me to this school to have a fresh start."

Why did I told him that?

"It was a good decision from your parents then, if you have any issues here you should tell me. I'll help." He affirmed.

There was silence, not the awakard type. His company is something I appreciate and looking at him he is quite the United States man stereotype, his eyes are green like esmeralds.

"What? Did you fall for me already?" He asked making his fingers go through his hair. "I know I am irresistable."

"Huh?" I react coming to reality. "Yeah right, like I would fall for you. I have better taste,"

"You sure?" He asked sitting next to me and whispering in my ear. "What was all the staring about?" Apparently he is the type who would flirt with anyone now, and just for fun.

"Oh," Now that I can see him even closer his eye lashes are blond just like his hair. "You have blonde eye lashes.." I murmured looking at them.

Ash smiled. "You wanna see what other thing is cover in blonde hair?" He asked.

"Sure."

That made him have a surprise expression and paralize.

Shorter got where we are and Ash got behind him with a dramatic scared expression. I laughed about the situation.
