Dorms (Krashlyn)

Chapter 11

Ashlyn exits the room, slamming the door shut behind her.
What the hell is wrong with her? Is she jealous?
"I'm sorry, I gotta go."
"Wait, can I have your number?"
I hesitate for a second. Should I give it to him? I just met him.
"8675309, text me later, bye"
I run out of the room, looking for a sign of where the goalkeeper could have gone. I don't see her anywhere. I head to our room, taking the stairs so I can get there faster.
As I round the corner, I can see her stepping into our room and then slamming the door. I quickly open the door and find her sitting on her bed cracking her knuckles.
"Ashlyn, what's wrong?"
She glares at me. "Why do you care? Why aren't you still flirting with that boy?"
"What the hell are you talking about? I just met that boy five minutes ago!"
"Whatever,just go back downstairs and shove your tongue down his throat, I don't care"
"Are you seriously jealous right now? I don't sleep in the same bed as him when he's sad. I don't blush when he compliments me. I don't get butterflies when I'm around him. I don't feel anything towards him, BECAUSE I'M NOT INTO BOYS!"
My eyes widen and I gasp when I realize what I just said. Only my brother,Kyle,knows about my sexuality. Ashlyn stands up and walks towards me. 

"Do you trust me?"

"Yes?"

Ashlyn crashes our lips together while she places her hands on my waist. She pulls away after a few seconds. She smirks. "I've wanted to do that for a while."

*******

It's 10:40.Our coach gave us a "curfew" for the weekend. We are all supposed to be in our rooms at 9:30 and it's lights off at 10:30. Ashlyn and I are going to meet in the hotel lobby at exactly 10:45. We were gonna just hang out in our hotel room together, but Hope and Kelley got into an argument so coach made Ashlyn go stay with Hope and Kelley moved over here. So that pretty much ruined our plans.

"Hey! I missed you!"

"Ali, I saw you four hours ago."

I smile. "But I like being with you all the time, you make me feel safe."

She kisses my cheek and then pulls me towards the stairs. "Come on, follow me love."

"Where are we going?"

"You'll see."

******

Ashlyn took us to her room.

"Are you crazy? I can't go in there with you if Hope's in there!"

"Relax princess, she's spending the night with Carli. She won't be coming back tonight, that's for sure." Ashlyn smirks as she opens the door to the hotel. There's a bunch of pillows, lights, and blankets on the floor. Snacks cover the desk in the corner of the room.

 "Wanna build a fort?"

"YES!"

****

"I never thought you'd like to do childish things like this. You're supposed to be the bad ass goalkeeper."

"I don't usually like doing this stuff, but I like doing anything with you as long as you're happy."

"Why were you crying that night when I slept over?" I blurt out without thinking.

Ashlyn sighs and looks down. "My father doesn't actually care about me. He just wants money and power. Ever since I was little and he noticed I was good at soccer, he has forced me to play. That's why I said I hate soccer a while ago. I used to love it, but when my dad put so much pressure on me, I was no longer playing for the love of the game. When I was in high school, he would always try to get the other goalies on the team in trouble so that I could get even more playing time and get noticed by college scouts.  He wanted me to do something to Hope last week so that I would have no competition on our team. And since I didn't do what he wanted me to do I'm just a disappointment and a disgrace to the family and I'm no longer allowed to be near my family or anything like that."

"I'm sorry. He is an asshole for doing that to you. But I'm so proud of you. You did the right thing by not doing anything to Hope. And I know it probably doesn't mean much, but you're always welcome at my house. Now,we better go to bed, it's late out. I'll see you tomorrow morning."
I begin to get up but Ashlyn wraps her arms around my waist. "Can you spend the night? And sing to me?"
