Yours

Just as friends

So we were all there,
"UHM"
"Please don't call the cops-"
"He just murdered a guy"
Ash gave her a look
"Ok I won't."
She had left, "you want to stay over?" "Can I?" "I want you to" I was getting too bold, he's still with rose. "I uh, I left the knife outside-?"
It was on the floor next to him-.
"oh here you go" I handed him some of my dad's old clothes, so he wasn't still covered in blood. "You can keep them" my dad couldn't wear them anymore. He nodded "Thank you" "The shower is upstairs to the left" I let him go shower, and put some more blankets on my bed. I didn't want him to sleep on the couch, it wasn't comfortable to sleep on. Plus I had slept on it thousands of times before so I was used to it by now.
    He was out the shower, "Im done" damn-, I smiled at him, "the beds ready by the way, and do you want something to eat" "Hell no" i laughed at that, "and what do you mean?" "Your sleeping over right?" "Yeah but where are you going to sleep?" "On the couch-" "No! Your sleeping on your bed I'll take the couch." this could have been the end of it but yk I'm stubborn. "Well I'm not letting you sleep in it either" I had an idea In my head and I quickly pushed it away. "Fine I'll just leave." he said in a half joking matter, ok nvm  we are bringing the thought back, "wait-" he turned to look at me "We could share my bed" that sounds worse out loud. "Yeah. That's fine." Wait what he actually agreed, "Okay-" I was internally screaming and cussing my self out.
     I got into my side of the bed and motioned him to come on, and he did. I had a Queen sized bed so it was pretty big but our legs were still touching, which was causing my head to start screaming. "Why?" He turned over to look at me. I rested my head on the pillow, "hmmm?" "Why did you do it? I mean like why did you kill him? You've only known me for 4 months." He glanced at me, "Well your my friend right?"  "Well yeah." He thought for a second and said, "He used you just for a couple minutes of pleasure. The police wouldn't have done shit about it and you would have had to live with that. Those kind of people don't deserve to live" 
He was right, I nodded.
"Im sorry I didn't tell you sooner"
"It's okay, I'm sorry for being rough."
"No ash, actually I'm glad you cared that much"
"I would have had to do the same thing eventually"
"Oh for Rose?"
"Mhm"
We just stared at each other for a minute.
"And I would do over again a million times Ali. If it meant keeping you safe."
My heart jumped at that. My self control was leaving again, I wrapped my arms around him and buried my face in his chest,
"I'm so happy I met you Ash"
"Even though I'm a murderer?"
"Even if you murdered a million people it wouldn't change how I feel about you"
I felt his arms around me. And we stayed like that, the whole night. I stopped pushing it away, I loved him. And not as a friend, I was in love with him.
