Flash back
"I really like you Lucas..." Ashley whispered as we danced. "I know Tommy's one of your good friends, but I want you more than anything..." she smiled blushing deeply, we were in the corner of the couch talking.

"I like you too Ashley, a lot." I whispered against her neck, lightly kissing it.

"God damn it!" Ashley laughed as I had found her playing Nordan's hide and seek game. That was the last game we played, seconds after turning my Xbox off, Ashley was up in my room. "Hey Lucas, mind if I hang out with you for a while? Everyone's editing and I'm bored."

"Sure! I finished our video earlier, wanna see it?" I asked as Ashley nodded excitedly. I moved my other chair over as Ashley sat next to me, I played the video for her, she had the biggest smile on her face the entire time.

"Since I beat you at reg guns, and you beat me at sniping, guess we have to have a rematch?" She asked smiling as I nodded. I scooted over to my piano as I started playing, making some beats. "You're really good, can I hear more?"

"Of course." I smiled brightly as I played more, Ashley seemed like she was feelin' it.

"I got you." Ashley giggled, she started free styling and singing, she had an amazing voice and was pretty good at rapping as well; I soon finished the song as I stared at Ashley amazing.

"That was rad!" Alex said as we turned around quickly, Alex, Tommy, and Nordan were standing in the doorway staring.

"I've missed hearing you sing Ash. It's been forever!" Tommy smiled as Ashley blushed.

I awoke in the morning to my alarm blaring, I quickly shut my phone off as I got up stretching; I heard Tommy already in the shower, I was going to go to the gym, so I might as well just shower there.

"Big brother! Heading to the gym!" I yelled into the bathroom as I got dressed, Tommy mumbled an okay, as I left the room and out to the kitchen. It was 7 am, and no one was up yet, so I made myself some Tropical Rain GFuel and grabbed a granola bar as I made my way to the gym.

"Hey Tommy." Lucas smiled as he came into my room, I was playing some CS:GO.

"What's up?"

"Where's Ashley? I was gonna see if she wanted to do a rematch today since we tied yesterday." He explained as I ended the game and turned around.

"She went to the gym, then is going to look at potential houses for the new Optic House. It's basically gonna just be the pro team House, so it has to be perfect apparently. So she'll be gone most of the day." I explained as he just nodded. "You know yesterday, when she was singing with you? She must really like you, or really trust you. Ashley doesn't usually sing around anyone, unless she likes them, or trusts them. A lot."

"I don't know. It was amazing though." I smiled.

"You know, if it ends up happening, it does. But if you date my sister, I'm glad it's you and not one of the other boys. I know you're a good guy and won't hurt her. Just please be careful with her, she's had difficult relationships in the past, and it takes a lot for her to trust someone. Basically just be super understanding." I smiled, I only told him all of this because I trust him to be with my little sister.

"Thanks Tommy. I'm not sure if we will, but I honestly hope so. I really like Ashley." Lucas smiled blushing.

Ashley came in with her arms full of papers, still in what looked like her workout clothes when it's already 11 o'clock. She threw the papers down on the table and then walked over to sit on the couch with me, she sighed and laid her head on my lap.

"I hate house hunting." She sighed.

"Hello to you too." I laughed, as she turned to face me.

"Sorry, hi Lucas. I'm just frustrated. Sorry."

"What's wrong sweetheart?" I asked, playing with Ashley's hair.

"Nothing now, it just took till 10 to find a house all the boys and I agreed on, then it's been constant paperwork ever since. The house we all decided on is actually only 10 minutes away, right on the beach. I just can't believe it took 10 hours to find a house...."

"Well at least you found one right?" I laughed as she nodded.

"Yeah, it's a nice place. 6 bedrooms, 2,000 square feet, and wasn't that expensive." She smiled leaning her head into my hand. "That feels so good. I was having such a shitty day, but that is making it a million times better.." she smiled, blushing.

"I'm glad." I smiled as I kept doing it. I was watching old FaZe pro gaming tournaments when all of a sudden a beautiful girl walked out at MLG Orlando, she was wearing an Optic jersey. "Is that you?" I asked as Ashley turned to the tv.

"Yeah... This was one of my first ever gaming tournaments. I actually met Bloo here, and he's became one of my best friends." She smiled. "Sad thing is, I was only on the team for 6 months before Crim left, and Hector picked me to lead the team."

"Really?" Holy fuck, like I knew she was good, but I didn't know she was that good.

"Yeah, the other boys on the team weren't too pleased either, but soon accepted it. Besides they know I do a lot of work behind the scenes that they would never do. I mean I found a house in one day, it took them months to find the first Optic house."

"True..." I laughed, I felt her breathing slow, and when I looked down I noticed Ashley was sleeping. Damn, I still wanted to talk to her. She always looks so innocent when she sleeps, she looks like a tiny fragile little girl... I let Ashley sleep for a few hours until I was done watching gaming tournaments, the one I watched that had Ashley in it, she was amazing. It was a tournament of Modern Warfare 2, and holy damn. She beat out half the guys on Optic and FaZe in the first 5 minutes. I slyly moved Ashley's head off of my leg, as I picked her up lightly, she wasn't heavy at all; I carried her down to Tommy's room.

"Wha-" Tommy cut himself off when he saw Ashley in my arms, asleep. He let me into his room as he pulled the covers down, I laid Ashley down and covered her up smiling.

"Sorry Tommy. She was having a shitty day and laying on me talking about it, started playing with her hair, and within 5 minutes she was out." I laughed quietly.

"It's okay bro, thanks for bringing her. And yeah, if you ever want her to fall asleep quickly, you either have to like lightly rub her back, or play with her hair."

"Good to know. Night Tommy."

"Night Lucas." I went up to my bedroom and laid down, falling asleep to dreams of Ashley Olivera...
