Guitar Lessons

N O T E

This chapter is pretty long but I won't lie, I feel quite proud with this one. And I hope you guys feel the same way too.

The image above kind of represents how I imagined Ashleigh's hair to be except there's more brown in my imagination... it's the most exact picture I could find in WeHeartIt so I guess that'll do.

It'll mean a lot if you guys can hit the star at the bottom of the page and maybe comment on who you imagined the cast as. Thanks for the support so far!

"You bribed him into talking to me?!" I screamed at Ash unbelievably.

"Well, someone had to." She shrugs her shoulder as she sips her coffee calmly while I was staring at her, losing my mind.

"I can't believe you bribed him with money to talk to me!"

"Relax Lou. He didn't actually take the money, not one to take offers he told me." She snorts, "he said he'd do it with sincerity and look, he really did." She says as if proud of herself.

"He must think I'm a crazy desperate fangirl or something."

"I'm not that dumb to not give him a reason you know. I told him that you had a major guitar test coming and you don't know shit about it so I asked him if he could help you out since he's really good with you know, guitars."

"That makes no difference!"

"A thank you would be nice."

"That would be the last thing I'd say. I don't have guitar class that's a first and secondly, he must have done what he did because of the non-existent test and not out of pure desire. I feel so cheated right now." I whine, sinking my face into my hands, screaming inaudibly.

"Oh come on, I did you a huge favour. Look at where you guys are now! Next time you know, you'll be swallowing his face."

"Not helping Ash." I said annoyed, giving her a deadpan stare.

"Too soon?" She asks, embarrassed.

I groan in frustration, starting to overthink about whatever that's happen between the past two days. It's rather annoying to be jumping into conclusions and then being trapped in the overthinking phase when you don't want to be. Regardless of Martin's and Ashleigh's explanation about this, I still can't help but think of how foolish I must have been to think that Martin would simply just open up his arms to me.

Not literally.

"Come on Lou, you're overreacting. What was his views on this?"

"He said that he didn't mind at all and that he's glad to be helping me out with this. I mean, even if he didn't mind any of this, he couldn't just not think of why you would bribe him into such situations."
