New Beginnings

Chapter 14: The Truth Comes Out

Authors Note: So last chapter sort of sucked. So I hope this makes up for it.

Ava's POV

----------------

Okay, I was being over dramatic. His mother was in his room,and it looked like a heated argument. I had only met Chase's mother once, and she seemed like a really friendly person. Maybe Chase's lack of kindness is what caused their fight. After about 5 minutes of me deciding to talk to Chase tonight, I decided the latter. He wouldn't be in a good mood, and I didn't wanna risk pissing him off anymore.

I kept thinking back on the first night I met him. He was so rude, and tough. Now that I had him, he was a big mushy teddy bear. I kept putting off the conversation about what got him into that mess. But I knew curiosity would get the best of me, and I had to say it sooner or later. For him to almost die, it had to be something serious. I decided on sending him a goodnight text, and secretly hoping he would beg me to stay up.

TEXT MESSAGE

Ava: Goodnight, sleep well.<3

After about 5 minutes, he finally texted me back. And boy did that make me smile.

Chase: What? Already? It's barely 12.

Ava: You seemed a bit preoccupied so i thought I'd just go to bed.

Chase: You heard all that?

Ava: Not if I wasn't supposed to :) (your window was open)

Chase didn't reply to me, and I thought he might've gone to bed. That was until I heard my window slide up, and him coming inside. My room was dark, so all I could see was his figure walking towards my bed. I scooted over for him, and he laid down beside me pulling up the covers.

"Wanna talk about it?" I said turning towards him propped up on one elbow.

"Not really." Chase said turning towards me. "I just wanna hold you for a little bit." I agreed, but felt that maybe him and I were moving a little too fast. I mean I wasn't an expert on relationships, considering he was my first one. I just assumed that him being this close to me was normal. I hoped at least.

"You know you can tell me anything right?" I said snuggling into him.

He mumbled something incoherent and I kept wanting to push him. I mean after all, I told him everything, and I barely knew anything about him. Then again, it was midnight and he was probably upset over his little argument. Not to mention the fact that he was probably tired from football today. Whatever I had to say could wait until tomorrow. Hopefully, he'd open up to me. Or I don't know what i'd do.

----------

I woke up to an arm securely around my waist. I was about to scream for help,, when I realized it was Chase's arm around me. Mornings sure mess you up. I tried to get out of bed, but this buffoon weighed twice as much as me. Every time I would attempt to get up, he constricted me tighter to him. When a hand slipped to my butt, I knew this idiot was awake.

"You better get that hand out of there." I said as daring as I could.

"Or what." Chase said curious.

"Or i'll stick my curling iron so far up your ass, it'll come out  your mouth." I said in a low serious tone.

"You know girlfriends are supposed to let their boyfriends touch them, ya know?" Chase said amused before getting out of bed.
