Little Miss Nosy

Chapter 49- Green Eyes

I changed the book cover. Do you like it or is it a no?

I sigh happily as the warm water glides down my skin, soothing my sore muscles and watch as it runs down the drain. The loud beating of the water against the shower floor was practically background noise as I continued to wash my body absentmindedly. The memories of Ashton and I from last night played through my head like a video; hitting play whenever I wanted, pausing at my favorite times to relish in the moment, and hitting repeat over and over again.

I had said yes to Ashton.

There were no regrets.

I could feel the heat forming on my cheeks as I recalled our actions from last night. That type of pleasure and happiness was foreign to me until now. Now, I had felt everything. And it only made me want more.

However, prom was tonight and it was already 2 in the afternoon. We overslept, a lot. And I would have to go soon.

I turned off the water and got out of Ashton's shower, humming a made up tune as I got dressed in my clothing from last night.

All the times I've been here and it still shocked me to see he had his own bathroom in his room.

I didn't feel like washing my hair so I just put it up in a messy bun after combing through it with my fingers.

Looking in the mirror, I saw the permanent smile resting on my face staring back at me. It looked as if my skin was glowing and my cheeks were tinted with a natural blush. My fingers trailed up to the few hickeys that were left on my skin from Ashton. I looked very different.

I liked it.

With a final glance at my reflection, I turned away and headed to the door. Ashton was still asleep when I came out into his room. His arms were laying out horizontally beside him, causing him to take up his whole side of the bed. His dark hair was a mess on his pillow. His mouth was open slightly, allowing little snores to pass through.

I giggled and raced to the opposite side of the bed before crawling over to him and laying down gently.

"Ashton," I whispered. I tapped his nose a couple times gently, causing his head to shift slightly and his nose to wrinkle in the most adorable way.

I moved closer and tapped again, this time continuing until he woke up. A few taps later and his whole body shifted as he let out a tired groan. I moved back just in time as he lifted his hand and smacked himself on the face.

I contained my laughter the best I could as he jolted up in bed, on high alert as he scanned the room.

"Good morning, sunshine," I teased as he made his way back into the sheets. I bit my lip slightly as my eyes travelled along his perfectly sculpted chest all the way down to the thin sheet that covered his still naked body. My smile was replaced with a frown as I took notice of that long scar on his right said. I asked him about it last night and he said he got it a couple years ago from a knife. He wouldn't speak anymore on the topic and I didn't push him.

I don't know how I didn't notice it before during the other times I've seen him shirtless.

"You're still blushing? After everything we did last night?" His voice was low from sleep and his eyes were closed but even in this state, Ashton still managed to put on that infamous smirk, although this one was more lazy than the others.

"I have to go soon," I said, ignoring his comment.

His eyes immediately shot open and he stared at me in shock. "What? Why? I didn't mean to make you feel bad if that's-"
