The Friend

Chapter 4

"Amber is returning this Friday?", Ashley asked.

Lance and Ashley were doing shopping buying some wedding items.

"Yes, she told me this Friday. She has already extended her holidays for two weeks more and i wonder why", Lance said.

"Maybe she like Paris a lot and want to settle down there itself",Ashley added with a smile.

Lance stop and look at his girlfriend. She was very beautiful with the green dress that she was wearing. She wore a lot of make up as if she wanted to make Lance realize that he is the luckiest person on earth to have her.

"Why don't you like Amber?", Lance asked her

"Because i don't wanna share you with anyone, not even with your friends. I know Amber is your good friend but i just don't like the way you feel for her. I mean it is not your responsibility to protect or care for her. You spent more time with her than with me. I wish she stay in Paris forever. During her absence, we got to spent so much of time together", Ashley replied.

" I don't know what to tell you", Lance said with exasperation. "Amber is just my good friend and she want to see us getting married. Stop been so possessive about me."

"I don't want to lose you. I love you so much".

" Well, if you love me then trust me. Amber is just my good friend and", Lance hug her tightly and murmured" you are my future wife"

"Ok baby", Ashley said when Lance release her." You know one club has recently open its door. I was thinking to go there on Friday".

"Ashley!", frowned Lance."Stop been childish now".

"She has a family. They can take care of her", she said.

"Her family lives in another city",he said." I have to pick her up and if you want then you can accompany me".

"Good idea baby", Ashley said excitedly." We could pick her up and drop her home and then we could go out and have fun, just you and me..."

It was a bit difficult for Lance to focus on the road when Ashley was just blabbering nonsense. She just don't want to receive Amber . Lance wanted to surprise Amber so she did not tell her that he was coming to pick her up. 

When he came at the airport, he came to know that the flight of Amber landed one hour before. He phoned Amber and came to know that she already took a taxi and was on her way home.

"So where is your best friend?",Ashley asked

"Her flight landed one hour ago and she already took a taxi and is on her way home."

"Whaaat?", Ashley almost scream." We came to receive her and she just pissed off us and took a taxi. She could at least have the decency to inform you. We came here for nothing".

"It's my fault", Lance explained. " I should have inform her that we are coming to the airport. She was unaware or else she would have waited for us".

"Whatever", Ashley said." Let's go home and i will prepare a nice dinner for you".

"I would love to go home but i have a very important case to submit by tomorrow. I need to work on this. I hope you can understand me baby", Lance said sweetly before kissing her.

"I can understand", Ashley said sadly." No worries work is important as well. I know you like privacy when it come to work."

" Thank you, my love", Lance said and again kiss her on her lips.
