Arkala's Princess

Chapter 19

"Your ex.....?"

"Yeah. A few months back. But I'm over him. He just.... Cheated on me." Zoe sighs, playing with her hands.

"Oh, Zoe. I'm so sorry."

"It's fine. He was an idiot, I shouldn't have trusted him."

"Oh." I say. To be honest, Ashton seems pretty nice to me.

"Guys, you can do that somewhere else." Zoe says, looking at Lyra and Reece kissing on the couch, one of Reece's hands on Lyra's breast. "Okay, you can definitely do that somewhere else." Lyra and Reece pull away, and Reece smiles sheepishly, and Lyra blushes.

"Well, I better get going." Lyra says, standing up. "You coming, Reece?"

"Yep." Reece stands up, and he follows Lyra towards the door. Zoe and I watch in silence but Reece grabs Lyra's butt just outside the door but I could clearly see it. I look at Zoe and she seems as though she saw it too.

"Um, let's not go in any rooms for now." Zoe coughs, and I laugh.

"Yeah. Good idea."

"Hey." I breathe.

"Hey." Ashton says, opening the door for me. I slide in. I watch as Ashton walks towards the driver's seat and hops in.

"So. Where are we going?"

"I'm not gonna tell you. You'll have to find out."

"Aw, come on, Ash." I pout and Ashton tenses up and awkwardly coughs. I quickly correct myself. "Ton. Ashton." He blinks for a second, but speaks up.

"Nah, you'll have to wait."

"You're mean." I hit him lightly on the arm.

"And you're beautiful."

"W-what?" I stutter, caught off-guard.

"I said you're beautiful."

"U-um....." I trail off, not knowing what to say. "Thank you?"

"Yeah." Ashton sighs, as he stops at a red light. And immediately it brings back a memory. When me and Trystan got pulled over for kissing in the car in the middle of the road.....

"Sydney, you know what I'm talking about, don't-" he stops talking when I find my finger on his lips, silencing him. He stops the car at a red light, after I pull my finger away immediately. I look away from him, and look at my hands on my lap. I feel a hand on my cheek, making me look at Trystan. He lifts my chin up, making my eyes meet his. And before I know it, my lips are on his, moving in sync. His hand is on the back of my neck, pulling me towards him more, and when his hand touches my skin, tingles go down my spine, and I literally feel like I'm on cloud nine. My heart does leaps and cartwheels, as his lips move with mine. Suddenly there is a beep behind us, and we both pull away, looking at the car behind us. Then I notice the light's turned green again, and then I feel Trystan's hand still on my neck. I look at him, and he leans in and kisses me again. I try to pull away, because of all the honking of the horns behind us, but Trystan keeps his lips on mine. He pulls away suddenly. "Don't worry about them." He whispers.

"We might get called by the cops." I giggle.

"Eh, if it's a guy, you flirt, if it's a girl, I'll flirt." He shrugs off and I giggle as he pulls me in for a kiss again.

"Hey! Get off the road please." A voice stays sternly. I open an eye to see what I predicted. A cop. A girl one. She looks around in her twenties.
