Time Goes By [COMPLETED]

chapter 22

Rita's POV

"Ashley!!!" I yelled for Ashley, looking panicked and distress as I tried to extinguish the fire, using a napkin. Wait, why am I using a napkin? I threw it away and started blowing on the fire, only it made it worse as the fire slowly became larger and I immediately pulled back as I felt the heat on my face. I looked around and found a small towel laying peacefully on the counter. This will do, I mentally said while hastily grasping it.

I placed the towel on the fire to prevent oxygen from touching the flames but, I failed miserably as the fire didn't go down. In fact, it is too big to stop with using only a small towel. "Fuck. Fuck. fuckkkkkkk. Stop spreading for fuckssake!!" I yelled at the fire as if that's gonna help. What am I doing with my life? I though internally.

"What is going on?" Ashley said, standing on the door way, wet and cold, looking fresh out of the bathroom. She glared at me with her beautiful green eyes as I mentally replied to her; 'Nothing, just me about to burn our kitchen.' I smiled sheepishly, trying to look as innocent as possible, knowing full well there's a fire growing behind me. I'm sure I looked like a devil with the flames and the smile like nothing is wrong. She gasped as she finally noticed and rushed out of the kitchen, leaving me alone.

I turned around and tried to think of other ways to stop the kitchen from burning but nothing crossed my mind. Wait, what if this is God's way of scolding me for having too much sex on the kitchen counter? To show me, I'm gonna burn in hell? I gasped as another thought came to my mind. What if it's the ghost from the underworld who was burning in the depth of hell and now is coming to my- what am I thinking about?!

I splashed some water on the fire but it didn't work since I only used a small cup. I heard Ashley's footsteps coming closer until she appeared in the door way with a bigger wet towel and placed it on the burning pan. It suddenly disappeared and I looked at Ashley, feeling so proud. 'My saviour.' I said internally and smiled at the precious woman in front of me. Although, it died down as soon as I saw her death glare.

"I only left for 15 minutes. 15 minutes Rita!! to take a long nice warm shower, until I hear yelling and I come out, wearing my clothes as fast as I could, to find that you almost burned the kitchen." I saw how she was trying to prevent herself from yelling but I knew in a matter of time, she will. Oh I know, she will.

"The fire did it, not me." I said and that pushed the button. I knew it was gonna push the button but I still said it. It's not my fault as I'm used to being a smartass.

"Don't try to be a smartass!!" She paused with fury, pointing her index finger on my face. See, I told you. "You are not getting any for two weeks!!" She yelled at me, turning around and walked away. Does she really think I believe that?

I scoffed and crossed my arms over my chest, saying "You can't even last long." I covered my lips with my hands after saying those
sure-to-regret words and bit my tongue. If there's something about ash that no one seems to know is that she may look sweet and innocent but on the inside, she has that dark side were even I'm afraid of. A side that dominates and damn that side is great in bed.

"You. did. not." She warned, turning around with a raised eyebrow that says 'i dare you to say that one more time.' and I gulped. She rushed towards me and I thought she was gonna slap me but she turned right and opened the cupboard, pulling a cup out. I got confused until I saw her pouring the sink water in the cup. Wait, that's it? She's going to splash me with a cup of water? I chuckled until I heard the next few words that any woman, well, most woman would be terrified to hear. "You spent a full 20 minutes working on that hair of yours. Let's see how much you'll love it when it's wet." She took steps forward and I took steps back.
