Love of A Bully

Love of a Bully: Part 5

~~~~THE NEXT DAY~~~~

The next day at school Ashton was once again late. after i saw him drumming last night i left. so i don't know i he left or stayed after his set. ashton was amazing-extremely great last night.

"psst shadow girl," Claire said whispered handing me a piece of paper. i took the paper and read it. 'you stink :p' i nodded my head and gave her a thumbs up.

" thanks," i said. she gave me a half smile. than ashton walked between us. 

"Ashton!" we both exclaimed then looked at each other

"Woah the love im getting is awesome." he gave Claire a kiss on the cheek then sat down. "how you feeling he asked her?"

"good," she said smiling at him then grinned at me. ashton then turned to me.

"wassup?" he said

"hi, you look tired"

"uh yeah..i stayed up last night studying up late," he said smiling. why was he lying about last night? honestly, i find it pretty amazing that he's a drummer. 

"i see," i said looking away

i actually went to lunch today to see if Ashton was there. i don't know why or how i was going to talk to him bout last night. if i confront him in front of his friends he'll only make it seem like im crazy to the whole bunch of people. i kept my eye on his lunch table but didn't see him until i remembered the last place i saw him during lunch. the library. 

i went to the library hoping to find him and i did, banging on his textbooks rhytmically. 

"do your friends know?" i said sitting in front of him. he quickly stopped banging and made a small laugh.

"know what?"

"that you drum?"

"please i don't drum, im on the football team" i knew it would be hard to get it out of him.

"i saw you at the pit last night"

"I'm sorry what pit?"

"you were drumming last night at the pit; for the battle of the bands, i saw you, close up" he still looked at me like i was crazy. "I'm not crazy Ashton, don't make me feel like i am." eh slumped his shoulders and sighed. he looked both ways and leaned in.

"fine your right but don't tell anyone. i don't want people to think I'm crazy."

"why would people think your crazy? i think its fucking awesome your in a band. a drummer too, that's hot for most girls."

"yeah like who?"

"like...me" he smiled and looked down.

"just don't tell anyone alright?"

"fine i won't tell," he leaned back and thanked me. "but"

"oh no the but," he said leaning forward again. i made a small laugh.

" i want you to show me"

"how to drum?"

"well yeah, eventually but also how well you can drum" he took out a piece of paper and wrote something down on it.

"here," he said giving me the paper. "come to this address after school and ill give you a mini-lesson."

"sure," i said taking the paper and we both smiled at each other. we grabbed our stuff and headed straight to chemistry. "oh i cant straight after school."

"Well, whenever you can, ill be ready," he said winking at me. my heart skipped a beat when he did so.

he walked into chemistry and i followed him
