Jade's POV

I woke up the next morning and got ready for school. I skipped breakfast and headed straight to school. I got to class two minutes before the bell. I was staring at my desk when Ashton sat down. He turned around but seemed to hesitate before saying "Hey," I looked up and he was looking around the room, "so, um, about yesterday..." He tried but I interrupted.

"It's okay, you don't have to apologize" I said flatly.

He went silent and his lips were pursed. He opened his mouth to say something but the teacher walked in, stopping him from speaking. He closed his mouth and turned around. The class began but I couldn't concentrate at all. My mind kept going to what happened yesterday. In the middle of class, Ashton put a folded piece of paper on desk. I unfolded it.

It read: I need to talk to you so can I go to your house later?

I answered with a 'yeah sure' and gave it back to Ashton, unnoticed. I started to wonder as I stared at my desk, what was so important and if it was about yesterday's events. There were so many unanswered questions but Ashton put the paper back on my desk, interrupting my train of thoughts.

It read: OK good, I'll walk you home.

I didn't bother writing anything back since he knew I read it. I folded it back up and put it in my pocket.

The rest of the day went by in a blur but then it was time for Math. I did not want to go, even though it was my favorite subject. I just didn't want to go to the hospital. I was at my locker in my own world when I felt a light tap on my shoulder. I jumped a bit and turned to see Ashton smiling at me.

"You ready to go to class?" he asked, his smile getting wider.

'What is he talking about?' I looked at him, confused but he just kept smiling. He leaned down to my ear, making me blush a little, and said "I told the principle what happened to you and persuaded him to let me move to your class."

I was more than shocked. I was relieved and for no reason really happy. I had no idea why I was this happy for a small thing like this, but I was. He grinned and started to walk away, "c'mon lets go before we're late."

When we walked in the class, all eyes were on us. I looked down as I followed behind Ashton to our seats. We were almost there but he suddenly stopped, almost making me bump into him.

"You're not supposed to be in here," an angry, familiar voice growled.

I tensed and looked up in panic. It was Jack. Ashton looked over his shoulder and smiled reassuringly at me. I relaxed a bit and he looked back at Jack.

"Actually I am", he said matter-of-factly, "I got moved to this class." He moved passed Jack pulling me with him. As we walked by Jack glared at Ashton but smirked evilly at me. I shivered and sat down at my desk. Through out the hour Jack would look at me and smirk.I'm pretty sure Ashton saw cause I could sense him getting angry.

After class, Ashton followed me to my locker. He was really close to me and glancing in every direction. I opened my locker and grabbed all the homework and books I would need. I slammed my locker, getting annoyed, making Ashton jump and look at me.

"What are you doing?" I asked trying to hide the annoyance in my voice.

"I'm guarding you. Let's go to my locker so I can grab my stuff," he said bluntly.

He grabbed my wrist, pulling me in the direction of his locker. As we walked I saw Jack and his crew glaring at Ashton. Our eyes met and he had his signature smirk. I quickly looked away, shaking slightly. Ashton picked up his pace.

We arrived at his locker slightly panting from walking, almost jogging, across the school. He let go of my wrist and grabbed his stuff, shoving it in his backpack. He zipped it up and turned to me.

"So um.... should we go?" he asked giving a half smile.

"Yeah," I replied, "But do you think you could stay a little longer after we finish talking about whatever you need to talk to me about?"

I looked down. "Sure," he said happily, I could hear the smile in his voice. "Let's go," he grabbed my wrist and dragged my out the front doors to my house.

I unlocked the door and invited him in. I closed it after us and we sat on the couch. He looked around, taking in his surroundings as I grabbed my homework.

"Make yourself at home, Mom's not here," I informed him.

He looked confused. "What about your dad? If you don't mind me asking," he asked shyly.

"He's gone, and is not coming back," I answered coldly.

"Oh," he said with guilt and looked at his hands.

I sighed, got up and went into the kitchen. I walked back to the couch and gave Ashton a cup of water. He thanked me as I sat down. We drank in silence and set it on the table when we were done.

"So, I wanted to talk to you about yesterday," he looked at me, searching my face for something. I remained silent, nodding for him to continue. "Well," he adverted his eyes, "I uh uh um... I LIKE YOU!" he suddenly shouted.

Ashton's POV

Her eyes widened in shock. She remained silent, which was making me even more nervous and worried. She looked down at her lap and I think I see her blushing.

"I............. like you... t-too," she said it so quiet that I could barely hear it.

I smiled big and grabbed her hands, making her look up at me. "Really!?" I asked in bit of disbelief.

"Y-yeah...really," she gave me a small smile, blushing.

I cupped her cheeks in my hands and slowly leaned in. When our noses were slightly touching, she seemed to get impatient and kissed me. She wrapped her arms around my neck and ran a hand through my hair. I kissed back and grabbed her waist, pulling her on my lap. There was no tongue but it got to the point where we were losing air. We kept going, when, suddenly the door was barged open. We jumped and quickly looked in that direction. Jade gasped in horror and stared at the figure at the door terrified. The figure smirked at her.

"Hello....Jade"
