(Peter POV)
"I told you to let me go first." I sigh as Linda looks at me confused.
"I thought he was dead?"
she asks as I walk in and get down on my knees next to poor Ashley.
"Yeah well, we thought you were dead too."
I grunt as I pick up Ashley in my arms and walk across the large penthouse to what I can only assume to be the sitting room.
He was so light for his size that it was almost concerning.
I look down at my brothers best friend. He was completely passed out with his head tilted back and his dark brown hair tickling my shoulder.
Carrying Ash makes me miss my Joseph.
I carefully lay him down on the bench and his arms fall off the side. I pick them up and lay them on his chest. The light from the city comes in through the window and the black ring on his left hand seems to glow.
"Ashley got married? Wow. Bless her heart, she must be so patient to deal with this guy. I wonder if she's here?"
Linda begins to call out and I clap my hand over her mouth.
"Let's not scare anyone else to death and just wait until Ash wakes up alright?" I wince and she nods in agreement.
"Do you think Jonathan got married too? Probably not, right? You can't meet a girl and marry them in under a year right?"
Does she think I'm my brother's keeper?
"Linda...I may be a genius but I don't know everything. He hasn't told us much since he moved here alright. So Chill."
She pouts a little and leans over Ash feeling his forehead.
"Oh, he's hot, that can't be good."
Ashley opens his hazel eyes and blinks a few times before catching Linda's hand. He looks at her and pushes it away then sits up.
He looks at Linda then instantly lays back down again.
"Please tell me this is all just a really fucked up dream..." He groans and rubs his eyes.
"Are you okay? You fell pretty hard."
Linda asks as she gently ruffles his hair. He looks at her and shakes his head.
"I think I'm going to be sick." he groans and rubs his forehead.
I would be sick too.
"Hey back off for a minute." I pull Linda back and sit next to him.
"I don't understand. Are you not happy to see me?" She asks while tearing up.
Ashley refuses to look at her, instead focusing his eyes on the ceiling, I could see the tears brimming his eyes and knew my suspicions were confirmed.
