Knowing Asher

Chapter|50|

Thank you all so much for the support. KA has reached 1k and #10 on teen fiction. This couldn't have been done without any of you.
I love you all so much!

I sipped my milkshake and looked around the cafeteria. My life has really changed drastically within a few months. I glanced at the table my friends and I used to sit on before. Now, here I was hanging out with the popular and having people stare at me wishing they could get a space on this table.

Ian took some of my fries and stuffed it in his mouth. I glared at him and moved my food away from him. "Come on, Stephanie, it is just fries," he pouted, and I rolled my eyes.

"I don't share my food," I replied and continued sipping on my milkshake.

"But you share with Asher," he grumbled as Asher took some of my fries.

"He is a special case," I grinned, and he snorted.

"Special case, huh?" Asher whispered into my ear, and I blushed lightly.

The guys from the basketball team were actually nice to me, and we get along pretty well.

The girls I can't really say, I know some of the girls hate my guts because I was dating Asher. They are jealous of me while some are friends with Katrina. I stared at Katrina to see her giving me a deadly glare as usual, and I smiled sweetly at her. I placed my hand on Asher's hand resting on the table and squeezed it. He squeezed it back without looking at me, and I smirked at Katrina. It felt so fucking great to have the upper hand.

"Pass me the ketchup Jassy baby," Nina annoying voice said out, and I sighed.

I like Jason, but his girlfriend was annoying. She was friends with Katrina, and I really don't get what Jason sees in her. He passed her the ketchup with a smile, and she just grabbed it without thanking him.

Love was truly blind. I was sure he could do better than her, but who am I to judge?

"It has been so long since we all hang out together," Ethan voiced out.

"With all the pressure from the nationals and coach breathing down our necks. That man is an asshole," Ian said, and we laughed at the last part.

"I heard a new arcade shop just opened. Why don't we check it out?" Nick asked.

"What do you think, Asher?" Ian asked, and everyone turned to look at him. I wouldn't admit it loud, but my boyfriend was kinda the boss around here. The boys really like hearing his opinion about things. I can tell his opinions really matter a lot to them, and they really respect him a lot.
He smiled before answering. "Sounds good. We can check it on Saturday. We can let off some stress before the nationals actually kick in. I doubt the coach would actually give us time to laze around. We might get to practice every day, even weekends. This is very important to coach and to us too. We must win this so that we will be the first team to win this for this school. Our names would never go down in the history of the school," he said, and the guys cheered.

"I bet we would win. We have you so we have nothing to worry about. You are the best, Asher." Katrina purred out, and I rolled my eyes.

"I am not the best. I am only that because of every single one of you. I can't win this alone, and we need each other for this. Everybody support counts, and I am not talking about the players alone," he replied, and I smiled.

My boyfriend was very wise, and I glanced around to see that his words really affects the boys so much.

"We will give it our best, man," Jason said, and the other boys nodded, agreeing with him. Amanda winked at me as if to say you are so damn lucky, girl.
