[L A N A]

Her fingers typed away on her phone's screen. She's been texting Ashton for almost an hour now, they were both kind of excited to go back to the usual college routine, the boy had a little more than a year left while Lana was in her second year.

She's going to be really busy when next week starts, assignments, essays, going to trials and such. Damn, never thought she would ever get that far.
She smiled to herself and exhaled.

Her phone called her attention again and tapped the bubble with the text.
Ashton wanted to meet up, she was really enjoying her lazy day on the couch and watching shitty reality tv shows.

from: Ash
fine, let's just hang out in your place since you're such a sloth

Lana chuckled and shook her head. The girl checked her clothes, she spent too much time wearing joggers for her own good.

She waited for about 20 minutes before her doorbell rang. Her feet dragged her to the door.

"It's kind of satisfactory that you still decide to use the bell instead of just texting you're outside." She kissed his cheek.

"You're acting like my grandma, by the way my mom says hi." Lana opened her mouth.

"Tell Anna I love her and miss her food. Haven't heard about her in awhile though." Ashton plopped down on the couch with bags on his hands still.

"Yeah, I called yesterday, she wanted me to pay a visit."

"You should, you're a total mamma's boy anyways." Lana grabbed the bags and took out some candies and popcorn.

"I am a grown man, dammit." He groaned.

"Totally." She raised a pack of gummy bears and smirked.

"There's not a limit age to enjoy eatable bears."  Lana laughed and threw the candy at him.

"Eatable bears? who's the grandma now?" Ashton popped a gummy into his mouth.

"You, just look at the nest in your head." He giggled.

"Fuck off. You look like you haven't changed in a week." Ashton was wearing grey sweatpants, a black muscle tee and a sweatshirt over it.
"Uh-uh." She rolled her eyes, boys could never look bad while wearing that. "I know grey sweats usually make girls go crazy." He raised an eyebrow. She couldn't help but blush.

"I will kick you out, Irwin."  Ashton just grinned and grabbed her hand making Lana fall down, beside him.

"You can't live without me, love." There he was the flirty-dorky boy again.

"Stop." She bit her lip. The boy just kept smiling at her. She fidgeted with the end of her top, they were extremely close. One of her legs was over his thighs and he was leaning in, holding the pack of gummy bears.

"I swear-" Ashton hushes her.

"You're cute when you get nervous" He backs up.

"I wasn't nervous. Why would you make me nervous?" She looked away but rolled her eyes before.

"You're gonna loose your eyeballs if you keep doing that." He shrugged. "and for the record, you were a little bit nervous when we kissed."  She gasped and looked at him with wide eyes.
Ashton smiled proudly at himself and leaned back on the couch.

"You did not." She whispered.

"Oh, honey. I didn't do anything." The girl put her lips together into a thin line. What was he even doing? He had to mention the kiss, which in fact she started but she was emotionally unstable.
