"Woah! It's so beautiful! The leaves change colors here?!"

"Woah! It's so beautiful! The leaves change colors here?!"

Ashley shouts as we walk across the bridge. 

I take a sip of coffee and watch my immature best friend spin in circles and look up at the leaves while laughing like a crazy person. He was so cute. 


"Does he ever stop?" AJ asks and looks up at me. 

"Nope. To be honest I might have named you after the wrong person." I chuckle a little.

 AJ sticks his hands in the pockets of his jacket. "You guys are embarrassing. I don't know why I go anywhere with you. You were never like this with mom."

 He says gently and I sigh. Putting an arm around him and rubbing his shoulder a little. 

"Your mom and I were something different. I feel like with Ashley I can be my true self."

 I say and feel my heart flutter again. 

I look up to see Ashley in his white sweater and dark jeans stop spinning in stupid circles to look at me. His bright hazel eyes meet mine and he smiles while running his fingers through his hair. 

"Sorry, I got a little carried away, but how can you not think this is cool? It's so gorgeous!" 

He squeals and looks over the railing of the bridge. 

Instinctively, I immediately reach over with my free hand and grab his waist. As I'm pulling him back, he trips and falls into me.

 "What was that for?" He asks and I keep my arm wrapped around him. He doesn't seem to notice. 

"I don't trust you and bridges," I say defensively and he puts an arm around my shoulder. 

"Would you still jump after me?"

 He asks and I roll my eyes. 

"What do you think?"

I say back and his cheeks turn pink. I can't tell if he's blushing or if it's from the cold. 

"You guys look like a married gay couple and not a cute one. Can you not?" AJ groans and I remembered I was still holding Ashley's waist. We both let go of each other and I ruffle AJ's hair. 


"I see it!"
