Six Boys and One "Nerd"

Chapter 11 - Nerds and Motorcycles

It's gorgeous. Black, shiny, sleek. I can tell he takes great care of it because not a fingerprint is in sight. Asher glances over at me and sees my awestruck facial expression. He smirked and says, "Like what you see huh?" I don't have any words to express what I'm looking at so I just nod my head instead. "Well come on then, hop on I won't bite," he says with a smirk once again. He holds out a second helmet and I start walking closer to the motorcycle. I grab his extra helmet and climb on. "Hold on sweetheart." He tells me in a low husky voice. I cautiously wrap my arms around his abdomen and clasp them together. He takes his hand and adjusts my hands until he's comfortable. His hands are rough and callused but yet oddly warm and comforting. My hands end up being placed right over his belly button before Asher decides he is comfy.

He starts up the engine and the motorcycle roars to life. "For the record sweetheart, you are the first person I've ever let ride on my baby." He mentions with a smirk. That explains why all the guys seemed shocked at his offer. It's because even when people beg him he never lets them have a ride let alone offer one. He leaves my thoughts in the dust when he takes off and suddenly my hair that managed to escape from under my helmet is flying in the wind. I look around for a while and then I just lay my head down on his back and squeeze my arms a little tighter around him. Being this close to another person was something I haven't experienced in a long time and I didn't want it to end.

Asher presses down on the brake and I realize that we are at Edgewood High already. When Asher comes to a stop and parks I kinda just sit there for a few seconds not wanting to move. "You like riding on my baby don't yah sweetheart?" He mumbles to me with a chuckle. Asher's chuckle sent the good kind of chills down my spine as my arms were still wrapped around him so I could feel it. I nod at his question and bury my head further into his neck.

He pulls off his helmet and shakes out his hair. He glances around the school grounds and then checks the time on his phone. "Well as much as I would like to stay here all day sweetheart, I have to get you to class so you can show off your new look." He mentions with a smirk.

Asher hops off his motorcycle and then proceeds to lift me over his shoulder and carry me into the school. "Hey put me down!" I giggle. "If I don't then you'll just stay there all day on my baby so I have to sweetheart." He tells me and I laugh in agreement. I wasn't going to complain about getting a free ride from Asher into the building. He briskly walks across the lawn as if he doesn't have an entire human on his shoulder currently. I giggle at the nonchalant look Asher was giving everyone who was staring at me.

Students immediately start whispering to one another and I roll my eyes. Asher opens the door into our school and leaves all the watching eyes behind us.
