"So, why don't we go get something to eat?"
Ruby shot her eyes down to her feet and said, "Oh, I ate back at the-the orphanage, I'm not that hungry.
"You're sure?"
"Yes, I don't want anything to eat."
I smiled at her, "Alright, if you want anything there'll be some food downstairs for you."
She finally looked up, "Ok Ashton. I'm just going to unpack." She grabbed her suitcase and started to unpack into her closet. I walked out of her room and shut the door but leaving it open slightly.
I jogged down a flight of stairs and made my way to the living room where michael was sitting, strumming aimlessly on his guitar.
"Hey." He said bluntly, his fingers seizing. "Hey." I said, not too thrilled.
"What's wrong? is everything ok with ruby?" Michael had a look of concern in his eyes. "I guess.. She's just not eating and it's worrying me."
Michael continued strumming his guitar an spoke, she might just be nervous or something. You never know. New house, new family, it's probably over whelming, you know?"

"Yeah. I'm sure she's ok." Then, i walked go the kitchen to clean up.

As I finished unpacking all of my things into my new room, I started to think that maybe I would stay here and not move back to the orphanage. Maybe it would be ok.
After Ashton asked me if I want dinner, I've felt a little hungry and I began to crave pasta.
I pulled my door open, revealing the door to Calum's room. I made my way down to the kitchen and found Ashton.
"Hey ash.." I said, nervous that he was going to make fun out of me.
"Yes ruby?" He smiled, his deep dimples showing through. "Can I have some pasta?" I latched my teeth on my bottom lip nervously.
"Of course you can love." Ashton said, and started preparing a plate for me. "Thanks ash.." I said, my eyes trailed to the living area, vacant from any sort of life. "Can I watch tv?" I mumbled, not wanted to just help myself.
"Of course you can. This is your house too, you don't need to ask permission." Ashton said, as he finished preparing my plate.
"Your food is ready." He said, setting it on the white and black marble counter.
"Thank you." I said, grabbing my plate from the island and making my way to the sofa.
I grabbed the tv remote, turning it on and watching it burst to life. I scrolled through the tv until i found dance moms. I turned it on, excited to see who was going to get cut from the team this week.
I smiled and looked down toward my plate of food, which was balancing on my lap.
I grabbed my fork and spun it around reluctantly to catch pasta. I put the bite in my mouth and immediately gagged silently about the thought of how much weight I was going to gain.
Eventually I had finished about half of the mound of Alfredo on my plate.
I looked at ashton, who was sitting next to me. "I'm finished. Thank you. That was very good." I have him a small smile.
"I'm going to rest ok?" I stood up from the couch and made my way to the kitchen to set my plate on the counter. "Goodnight ashton." I said, jogging my way up the stairs. "Goodnight Ruby. Sleep tight." He smiled at me kindly. I smiled back and made my way to my room.

I had to get rid of this food.
