We'll Brave this Storm (An Ashley Purdy love story)

Chapter 5

Marissa's POV

One Month later

My sister and I have lived in California for about a month now. It's actually not as bad as we thought it would be. The suns always out, We can swim everyday, and not to mention the boys here are gorgeous. Ashley and I haven't spoken since we met at McDonald's. He texted me the night of the concert. I was going to text him back but when I saw his twitter, he was kissing some blonde chick, it broke my heart and I didn't text him back.

Now,It was a monday. Riley and I could have went to school like we should have but who the hell am I kidding, We haven't went more than 6 days since we moved here. No Parents,no rules is our moto. Instead we went to walmart to pick up some stuff.

We got into my beaten up car that looks like it was beaten with a sledgehammer. After we moved, our parents never talked to us. They did however send us money,not much but enough to buy what we needed. After 20 minutes, we pulled into walmarts parking lot. It was noon so we had to park in the very back of the lot. We began our walk and eventually we began to race.

GO!!! I yelled and we were off. I saw a shortcut so I took it in between to cars. I was running when i ran into something really hard. I felt to the ground with a grunt. I looked up and what I saw, I wasn't expecting...

Ashley's POV

We were finally home in California. We had just arrived at the band house. When we went in, everybody immediately ran to the refridgerator. They were in there for what seemed like forever and then they turned around with pouty faces.

"Were out of food" said CC looking like he was about to cry. I chuckled and told them i would go get some food. I decided to go to Walmart because a lot of hot babes go there. So after I got all the guys requests, I went out to my mustang and climbed in. I was so happy to be back in my own car again. When I arrived at Walmart, the parking lot was full. I had to park somewhere close to the middle of the lot. I got out of my truck and i heard laughing. Just then something or someone ran right into my chest. The person fell to the ground and all i heard was a grunt.

Marissa's POV

Ashley was right above me. I could see his toned tattooed arms and i immediately regretted taking my shortcut. I was hoping he wouldn't reconize me. I did dye my hair after all. It was now black with blue streaks. I wanted to be unreconizable and it worked but could it get past Ashley? I was so hoping. Of course my luck, it didn't.

"Marissa?, Is that you?" He said unsure of himself.

"yeah, it's me"

"Nice to run into you again" Ashley said with a smirk. His smirk made me smile. There was just something about the way his lips curled up. I knew right then, that I was completely in love with a guy that i had only seen once before. I was in love with Ashley Purdy.

"Marissa! Earth to Marissa!" he said while waving a hand in front of my face. "I like your hair by the way."

"Thanks"

"So what are you doing here."

"Long story short, my parents threw us out, made us go to boarding school, and now were here."

"Oh, sounds nice"

"Oh yeah, totally" I said with sarcasm dripping from my voice. Ashley just chuckled and we began to walk inside.

"what are you getting" He asked.

"food"

"ME TOO! We should shop together"

"Yeah, but I have to find my sister, we came here together and tried to race to the door, and that's why I ran into you, sorry about that by the way."
