Developed Love || Auston Matthews (Completed)

Chapter 3

I woke up fairly early and decided to hop in the shower. I wasn't ridiculously hung over by any means but I also didn't feel like I was in tip top shape.

In the shower I shaved my legs and anywhere else that needed to be shaved and washed and conditioned my hair. I also exfoliated my skin nicely so it was all perfectly soft. I turned off the shower and dried my body and wrapped my hair in a towel. I was putting cream on my body and the door swung open and I was there with just my black silk robe draped across my shoulders, other than that everything was visible.

"Auston!" I exclaimed, trying to cover what was showing

"Lock the door next time then!" He smirked slightly before scrambling out of the washroom.

I wasn't really embarrassed about my body. I enjoyed working out and I always ate healthy, on good days I even had abs. But having Auston see me like that completely threw me off.

I was never expecting him to see me so vulnerable like that and now I was completely too shy to face him. He saw everything. To get my mind off of what just happened I decided to go to the gym to destress.

I put on a white cropped tank and pink leggings with white sneakers. I decided it was leg day, my favourite day.

I got to the gym and checked my phone. I had one unread message from Auston.

Auston Matthews
"If it makes you feel any better, you're a lot hotter than I expected you to be."

I decided to just leave him on read. I didn't want to start anything up between the two of us, he disliked me enough.

After a couple hours at the gym and absolutely destroying my legs, I made my way home. It was hard to drive because my legs were so exhausted, they were like jello.

I walked in the house to see something completely unexpected.

Auston Matthews and some brunette girl, making out on my couch.

"Ahem." I pretended to clear my throat to grab their attention.

"Oh, you're back." Auston said smirking.

The girl just smiled at me awkwardly.

"Yeah I'm back, and I don't think Steph really wants you fucking someone in her bed while she's away. And the couch is off limits, so is my room. And don't even think about going in the bathroom because I'm taking another shower." I sounded like an over protective mother but I was serious. I didn't want anything like that going down in my house.

I heard someone leave while I was in the shower and I expected that Auston and that girl left to go wherever to have their little fun. I was honestly mad about it, I don't know why. I've never seen Auston with a girl and I guess I've never realized that I actually find him attractive until now. So I was mad, yeah. But I had no reason to be, because we weren't dating and we hated each other.

After my shower I put on a pair of black jeans and a white adidas hoodie, I just planned on chilling at home today so I put on light makeup. Nothing too special.

"You ruined my fun." I heard Auston say blandly from behind me.

I jumped. I didn't expect him to be here and he startled me.

He scoffed.

"Sorry. You could have gone with her somewhere. I don't care. As long as it isn't here." I looked at him briefly

We ended up watching some tv for a bit but I was getting bored.

"I'm really bored." I groaned

"Then go do something. You had no problem going and getting shitfaced by yourself last night." Auston sassed me.

"Well I kinda got the vibe you didn't appreciate that and I know you're here to keep me company so I'm sorry for leaving like that." I looked down, sighing. Why couldn't he just me nice to me?

After a few minutes of silence Auston spoke up.

"We can go see 'IT' at 8:45?" He suggested.

I wasn't a fan of clowns, or scary movies, or just scary things in general. To be honest I was childish when it came to fear. I was easily scared.

"I'm not sure if I would like that movie." I said, not giving him an explanation as to why.

"Aww is the princess scared of a movie?" He teased

"Are you kidding? I could handle it better than you could!" I stated matter of factly.

"Well then lets go and see."

At this point I had no choice but to put on a brave face. We were walking into the movie to find our seats, we sat at the very top of the theatre so we were somewhat secluded. Auston didn't want people recognizing him. I didn't blame him.

Through out the first half hour or so of the movie, the tension was building up, like it does with scary movies. I was starting to get scared, my breathing rate increased a bit and I was tense.

"I knew you were scared." Auston whispered to me

"You're imagining things, I'm not scared!" I whispered back

Just as I said that, there was a terrifying jump scare and I covered my eyes so fast and whimpered a bit.

Auston chuckled at me, he didn't even flinch.

"Okay I wasn't expecting that!" I said in my defence.

I kept covering my eyes when I was expecting something scary to happen. This time though when I did it, Auston gently put his hand on my thigh.

I looked at him in confusing and he smirked at me. I didn't know why he was doing this. Was he trying to be nice for once? I was comfortable with it so I let it happen. It wasn't like I didn't already find him sexy, this was kind of exciting for me.
