He Saved Me

I wake up with a major headache. I get out of my bed, only to find out it's not mine. The room is large like mine, except its navy blue and there are a few sports posters on the walls.

I'm in Ashton's room.

All the memories of last night come flooding back and I feel the alcohol rise in my throat. I quickly run to the balcony and throw up pretty much everything in my stomach.

This is why I barely drink.

"Hey are you okay?" Ashton's rushes to my side and holds my waist.

"I'm fine." I huff and walk back in to the room. I see a tray of coffee, eggs, and bacon on the bed. I blush at the sweet gesture, but I can't forget what happened last night.

I go to walk to my room, but Ashton grabs my waist and spins my around to face him.

He gently moves my hair out of my face. "Paislee let me explain. Please." He pleads.

"Okay." I sigh and sit on the bed. He sits next to me and holds my hands. Probably to keep me from hitting him.

"I'm guessing by the way your acting you only saw the kiss right?" He asks.

"There was more than a kiss?" I ask trying to stay calm.

"No! I mean you didn't see me push her away."

"No, I didn't see that." I admit, feeling guilty. If I saw him push her away I wouldn't been mad.

"Okay well I did. She's a stupid ex. I broke up with her about a month before you moved here because she cheated on me. She's been trying to get me back but she's a whore. You can ask all five of the guys she had sex with while we were together. Last night I came up here because I saw her downstairs and I didn't want her to mess up whatever this is between us." He sighs.

I nod. "Go on."

"She came up here apologizing about cheating and whining about missing me. I told her to get out of my house, but she wouldn't listen. Instead, she kissed me. I pushed her away and told her to leave me alone. I left her up here and came down to find you. Paislee, I would never hurt you. I swear. I like you a lot." He smiles.

"Really?" I blush.

"Of course." He smiles and kisses my forehead. "Now eat."

"Do I really have to?" I whine.

"Yes." He laughs. "It'll make you feel better."

I eat my breakfast and we talk for a while.

"Are you ready to start school?" He asks.

"Not really. I'm nervous. My old school was really small and I knew everyone." I tell him.

"Well don't worry; I'll stay with you all day." He smirks.

"Promise?" I smile.

"Promise."

We lay in his bed and watch movies for the rest of the day. Logan and Lucas took Aiden to Chuck E. Cheese. At this point I'm not really sure what Ashton and I are. I like him a lot and apparently he likes me a lot too. I just don't want us to rush into anything and not be ready. If we date and it doesn't work out then we'll just be strangers again. Now that I'm comfortable here, I don't want to mess that up. Then yet if we do date we'll have almost a year to spend together and then we'll be going to college. Will we stay together? Will we break up? How would it work?

I just want to enjoy the time we have together.
