Tara Montgomery is just starting out in college with her best friend Corie. One night they decide to go to one of the hottest bars in town. What she doesn't expect is to fall into bed with a guy she doesn't even know. Result of this: she's pregnant...
"Asher you aren't buying me a car." I say pushing the shopping cart around Babies R Us.
"Why not sweetheart? You need a car, and I want you to pick it out, so I don't have to." Asher whined with a pout, picking up a pair of baby shoes that resembled Doc Martens.
"I said no Ash, you aren't buying me one and that's final. Besides, what is so wrong with the one I have now?"
"I don't know maybe the fact that it looks as if it's about to fall apart.. You and little man deserve better." He threw the shoes into the cart.
I sighed pulling them back out and throwing the them onto the shelf, they were forty-five bucks for crying out loud!
"The car isn't that bad, and don't bring him into this."
Asher lets out an exaggerated sigh, grabbing the shoes again.
Stopping the cart I turn around sharply, "Asher stop! I'm not buying those."
"You're not buying any of them as far as I'm concerned." He says with a smirk.
It was starting to get annoying, him buying everything of mine. Ever since he had told me about the cancer, the spoiling has gotten worse.
"Asher you can't keep buying all of my stuff. I make my own money for my own spending purposes. That's not your job, it's mine."
He just stares at me," You're sexy when you're mad."
I groan, rolling my eyes, and start walking away. It was useless really, he wouldn't budge.
"This baby is gonna be going out in style, you know." He said trying to change the subject.
"Can you go wait in the car, you are distracting me."
Asher wraps his arm around me bringing me back into his chest,bringing his lips to my ear,"Or better yet I can take you in the back and have my way with you." He says teasingly.
No we hadn't had sex yet but he had been making sexual innuendos all week, and it was starting to make its mark.
"Ash we're in a store."
I feel his grin on the shell of my ear,"You're right, so sorry love."
He quickly presses a kiss there before pulling away and side stepping the shopping cart and I, going to look at the next thing in the isle.
That man would be the death of me.

We had finally gotten out of the store, with Asher slyly paying for it before I could.
"Hey so I gotta run by my house really quick do you mind?"
"No I don't mind. Can I ask why?"
Asher's house was nice to say the least. It was on about two acres. The drive way had cherry blossom trees lining it. The house itself was like that of a Ancient Greek villa, terra cotta roofing with a lone stone turret.

His house was immaculate to say the lest. He had asked me countless of times to move in with him but my answer was still no, less pain when the time came.
"I got something that I need to give to you. You can't say no to it either cause it's already done."
I gave him a pointed look," What did you do?"
"You'll find out when we get there babe."
I roll my eyes and turn on the radio, Avril Lavigne's Girlfriend starts playing, wow what I throw back.
I decided to get playful and whipped my head towards Asher and begin singing the song perfectly.
"Hey, hey, you, you I don't like your girlfriend! No way, no way, I think you need a new one! Hey, hey, you, you, I could be your girlfriend!" I do a little dance in my seat making him smirk.
"I can see the way, I see the way you look at me, and even when you look away I know you think of me! I know talk about me all the time again, and again! She's like so whatever! You can do so much better-"
Asher turns down the music,"Sorry to interrupt but we're here baby girl; and I love your singing by the way." He says the last part with a wink.
Smiling I hop out of the car, taking his out stretched hand. We are inside his house before I know it and it looks as good as ever.
"I'm getting something to eat, want anything?" I ask walking towards his kitchen.
At first he doesn't answer so I turn around to look and find him staring at me.
"Asher focus!"
"Sorry, I just love you." He says blushing before walking of to where ever.
He didn't even answer my question, guessing he isn't getting any.
I quickly make me some Tyson chicken nuggets, and grab some Cheetos and grapes to go with it. So healthy right?
As I was finishing them up Asher walks back in, wow that took awhile.
"Sorry it was filed wrong." He said stealing one of my Cheetos.
I scoff and glare at him before brushing it off.
He then hands me a Package,which was sealed.
"What's this?" I ask forgetting my food.
"Open it.. Please don't be mad."
I open the folder without saying a word and read the paper. Shock wasn't even the right word to describe what I was feeling.
"Asher, no." I whisper.
"Yes Tara. I'm making sure that both you and the baby will be safe."
"And we will but Asher this isn't what's gonna make that happen this is to much. You can't just sign all your stuff over to me! You should give your money to a charity. Sell your house and put the money towards that as well. Better yet you must have a family member that would love to have it!"
"Tara what's done is done, the house is yours when I die, no take backs. The baby has enough to go to any college he wants and you'll obviously have enough to put him in a nice school-"
I kissed him to shut him up," Your crazy."
"About you. Tara this is the only way I can assure you'll be alright, that you won't even have to worry about money or weather the baby will be okay. I know you thinks it's not my place but to me it's the most important thing in the world. I know it's silly but deep down inside I know I probably could have prevented me dying.. If only I had noticed the signs earlier."
"I love you."
So that's this chapter. What do you guys think about Asher's little gift? To much? Sweet? Also I'm thinking about them moving a bit farther into their relationship. If you catch my drift. Yay or Nay people?
