Fall back in love

Chapter 11

"Thanks for tonight Ross. I had fun." I smile. "I did too. Maybe we could do it again sometime?"

"I'd like that." I smile as he leans in. "I have to go, I'll see you around," I say in a sweet tone.

"Yeah, I'll text you. See you on Monday." He smiles down at me and leans in to kiss me. I was a little surprised at first but soon kissed him back. A few seconds later we pulled away and I started blushing hard.

"Bye, Ross." I kept blushing and ran to my house.

~A week later~

It's Thursday, the day before my birthday I'm almost 18.

We were all in lunch right now. Ross and I keep talking but he hasn't asked me out on a second date. He comes to my table every day during lunch and walks me to class all the time, he's such a sweetheart. I think I may be falling for him.

"Hey Ashley, want to go out tomorrow night? second date?" Ross says putting his arm around me. "I would love to. Don't you have a game and party though?"

"I was thinking we could ditch the party and celebrate your birthday." He smiles at me. "Aw, you're so sweet. I would love to." I smile back and kiss his cheek.

"Alright, I'll meet you after the game tomorrow." I just nod and not even a second later the bell rings.

"Let's head to class my darling." He says holding out his hand. I giggled laying my hand in his as we walked to class.

~the next morning~

I woke up and did my usual morning routine. Since it was my birthday I decided to look cute for school so I chose a maroon high-waisted skirt and a black lace top, I put on knee-high socks and curled my blue hair. Today I added a little eyeliner to my eyes making my green eyes pop and a bit of lip gloss. I put on my black worn-out Doc Martins and headed to school.

When I got to school the first people I see are Savannah and the girls next to my locker.

"HAPPY BIRTHDAY ASH!!!" All 3 girls squeal. "Thank you." I smile at them and they hug me.

"You look so cute. I love your outfit." Jocelyn says grabbing my hand and twirling me. "Thank you." I blushed.

"Happy birthday, Ashley." A voice says wrapping their arms around my waist from behind and I blush to recognize the voice. 

"Thank you!" I say then blush even harder when I see he's holding out a rose to me. "Is this for me?" I look up at him and see he smiles and nods. "thank you so much, you're so sweet." I lean up to him and kiss his cheek.
