The Bullied Girl

Needing a Favour

Ashley Pov

David & Luke have been trying to get me to go outside and get some fresh air but I've been hiding in my new room, they take turns bringing me food but I hardly eat any of it, I don't miss my parents I just feel guilty for leaving Jessica behind... she's hardly ever home but they might focus on her now that I'm gone.

I sit up when I hear my door open, Luke walks in with two mugs "I made tea" He murmurs handing me one and sitting down beside me "thank you" I say softly as I felt myself get nervous by his presence, he's been so sweet & caring but he would never like me the way I like him... I'm just a loser.

"David went to work, I know you don't want to but can you come with me somewhere, I don't want to be on my own and I'd really appreciate your company" He says sighing deeply "what is it you have to attend?" I ask raising an eyebrow curiously as I place my mug on the bedside table, he does the same before looking at me with a sad expression "its my family reunion bullshit, I always get guilted into going and the whole time my family makes me feel like shit for not having a career or not knowing what I wanna do with my life yet" He grumbles sounding frustrated as he rubs his face.

I felt my hands start to sweat as my stomach twisted into knots, I gently place my hand on his arm "I'll come on one condition" I say narrowing my eyes at him, he looks at me curiously "what?" He asks raising an eyebrow "you make me another tea" I say with a grin making him chuckle "I can do that, thanks Ash" He says smiling an I felt my breathe catch when he kisses my cheek "what time do we need to leave?" I ask trying not to sound nervous "when your ready if that's ok" He says cheekily "your gonna have to get out than" I said as I stand up, I'm still in my pjs which is shorts & a tank top.

"What's wrong with what you're wearing?" He asks with a smirk "Luke, if you want me to come I need to get changed, I couldn't give a shit if it's in front of you but I'd suggest getting out" I say in a stern tone with my hands on my hips "you wouldn't get undressed while I'm here" He says rolling his eyes, that kinda irritated me so I took off my tank top, mind you I was not wearing a bra underneath, he quickly looks away from me "Jesus, Ashley!!" He says chuckling as he got up and started to head to the door.

I raise an eyebrow when he turns back around though "Luke" I say amused "hey you can't blame me for wanting another look, hurry up and get ready" He says cheekily as he leaves and shuts the door. I quickly take my shorts off and have a quick shower before getting dressed in a white lace bra & matching undies, I decide on a white knee length dress with a yellow flower pattern on the side of it, I grab some white sandals and quickly brush my teeth & hair, I decide to put my hair into a ponytail and put on some deodorant & perfume before grabbing my phone and walking out of my room.

"Luke?" I call out walking around the house looking for him, I shriek when I'm lifted up off my feet from behind, he chuckles placing me back down, I turn around glaring at him "rude!" I grumble but I enjoyed seeing him happy "let's go" he grins and walks towards the door, I follow him out and into his car.

"So about earlier, can we not tell David I saw your breasts" Luke says in a unsure tone as he drove the car "David doesn't need to know everything, Luke, besides it's not a big deal" I say amused as I try to avoid looking over at him "David made a comment that you & I would be good for each other, if he hears that he'll probably think we're into one another" Luke says in a blunt tone, I felt my heart flutter but also felt sad cause it sounds like he doesn't see me in that way.

"He never said that to me" I say surprised that my overprotective brother wants me to be with his best mate "cause he's your brother, it's weird, I shouldn't have told you that" He says sighing "let's just forget this conversation happened" I murmur as I look out the window "fine" He says as he pulls up at a park filled with people and a set up of camping tables, chairs and a lay out of food & drinks "Luke, please don't leave me alone with anyone" I say frowning as I look at him "I won't, come on" He says smiling and we hop out of the car.

An older woman runs over an pulls Luke in for a hug "hey mum, this is David's sister Ashley" Luke says as they pull away, she looks at me "hello Ashley, I'm Luke's mother Jayne, I've heard so much about you, you're as beautiful as Luke said you were" She says grinning at me, I look at Luke to see him glaring at his mother "thank you, he was kind enough to invite me along" I say smiling warmly "yes he did message me that you were coming so I've told everyone Luke was bringing a friend, come on I'll introduce you to everyone"
She says excitedly as she takes my hand and pulls me along with her, Luke follows us.
