The Road to....Somewhere???

Can't Avoid The Inevitable Any Longer.

I know this chapter is a bit short, but if I put the conversation about their pasts in this chapter, it will go on forever. I think this conversation deserves its very own chapter. So, what is anyone thinking so far? Do you like? Think something isn't right? I take all advice into consideration. It usually won't change what I am writing, but sometimes, I get great ideas from others. If I use your idea, I will certainly give you credit. Whether it is used in this story or another one.

Ashley's p.o.v.

I don't want to open my eyes.

As the light shines in the room, I slowly begin to stir. This feeling of contentment, alongside an overwhelming feeling of nerves, is weighing on me now. If I can just lay here, and never wake up, the things that are inevitably going to happen today, won't have to. Last night was probably the greatest, most romantic, most intense evening I have ever experienced. It was amazing. It was also completely frightening. It was necessary for me to do what I did, to get what I wanted, but now, the realization of what is to come is hitting me like a ton of bricks. 

Feeling Logan stirring in my arms, it is time for me to open my eyes. As soon as they open, they are looking into her violet eyes. In this light, they are almost a deep purple. As I'm wondering if she knows just how beautiful those eyes are, she leans in and kisses me. It is just a short, sweet kiss, telling me good morning without words. It was so different than I was used to. Sarah was usually on the other side of the bed when I woke, or already up and getting ready. 

"This is nice." Pulling her closer to me, I feel her melt into my body. This was not sexual. It was sensual. She pulls back way to soon.

"Last night was amazing. I just thought you should know that. I never wanted it to end." She hangs her head a little, taking my shy stance. Very out of character for her.

"Hey, I'm not going anywhere unless you want me to. Honestly, I think I'm in a little to deep to go anywhere. I'm sorry." Now I have said to much. This girl, what is she doing to me? I can't believe those words just came out. What in the hell was I thinking. The urge to get up is overwhelming, but as I begin to roll away, she pulls me closer. Her hands find my face, and force my eyes to hers.

"What are you sorry for? I thought I made it quite clear last night that this is where I wanted to be. I don't care about peoples opinions, or what is considered normal, or what society says is acceptable. I fell for you that very first night. I don't know how, and I don't know why, but it is what it is. That is it. I am over trying to analyze what this all means. I have decided to just go with it. Whatever happens from here, I have experienced a week of happiness with you. That is more than I have had in a very long time. Maybe ever if we are being totally honest here."  I can't help the stupid, goofy grin that spreads across my face.  Did she really say she fell for me? I know that that is not the same as her saying she fell in love with me, but it's pretty damn close. Love at first sight. Do I really believe in that? Until a week ago, I would have said with complete certainty, the answer to that question would be a big fat no. Today, yeah, I know without a doubt that it exists. "Say something, please." Logan pleads. 

"I don't know what to say." She starts to speak, and I see tears welling up in her beautiful violet eyes. Putting my finger to her lips, I let her know to be quiet. "Please don't cry. There is no need. I don't know what to say, because you took the words right out of my mouth. I don't think I could of put it any better than how you said it. You have very quickly become one of the most important people in my life. I never expected this. In truth, I didn't want it. I was so scared of the outcome if I ever opened up to anyone again, I said that if I ever got away from Sarah, I was done. I never wanted to feel like she made me feel again. I didn't have a lot to base it on, her being my only partner ever, so I didn't really know things could be different. You have already shown me they can be." We kiss. We just lay there for a little while, talking about nothing, and just being together. Then, I hear the cutest sound ever. Her stomach growls.

"Why didn't you say you were hungry?" I rub her stomach, accentuating my statement. 

"I didn't really realize I was. The last thing on my mind right now is food. Guess my body is thinking differently though."

"Come on. Let's get a shower, and I will fix you some breakfast." I do my best talking while I'm cooking, and eating. 

The time has come.

Can't avoid the inevitable any longer.
