Chapter twenty four

Chapter song~ Fallen angels by Black Veil Brides

"Okay, so details about the party will be texted to you either later today or tomorrow."

I nod,

"Sounds good to me..."

The conversation trails off and it kind of starts feeling awkward for a moment, then he starts walking around looking at everything, I raise an eyebrow.

"What are you doing?"

He laughs at me a little and I roll my eyes.

"I'm just looking around, calm down.... Last time I was here I was a little busy saving someone's ass if I remember correctly."

I shrug,

"Touché, you can look but you can't touch.... without permission."

He looks bewildered for a second, then I follow his train of though. Um, no, thanks. Guys, I swear, so immature. I throw a pen at him,

"You know what I mean, perv."

He catches it and throws it back,

"I know, but learn to be more specific, guys have one track minds."

I snort,

"Obviously, prime example right here."

He fakes a look of hurt on his face.

"Ouch, kittens got claws."

I laugh,

"Yeah, and she's not afraid to use them so don't forget it."

He laughs and wanders over to my stereo where my CDs are still in a box. He grabs the box, sits on the floor, and dumps it out looking through all the music.

"Seriously? Now you've made a mess, you better clean that up when your done, and if I find a single one broken your dead."

He laughs again,

"Relax, I won't break them and I'll put them away, I just want to see what kind of music I'm dealing with here, it'll help me get to know you more, help me find a common ground for conversation."

I roll my eyes muttering whatever. I go sit at my desk, pushing the curtains open and opening the window to let a breeze in. I pick up a pencil and start the other half of my sketch I had started the day before. So far, It contained the waterfall and I was working on the forest around it, I'd add colors later.

I had almost forgotten Ash was even there, until he got all excited over a CD he found and got up putting it in the stereo. He says,

"Might want to close the window, like in five seconds."

I give him a crazy look and shut it right before the stereo starts blasting one of my most favorite bands, Black Veil Brides and their most recent album Wicked and Devine. I smile,

"I've been looking for that, it's my favorite album by them."

"I'm suprised you know who they are at all."

"Oh please, they're awesome, my favorite next to Evanescence, and Sleeping With Sirens."

He mutters something under his breath, but I can't hear it over the music. Suddenly, he jumps up, exclaiming,

"I just got the perfect idea for the party, your going to love it!"

He rushes to put all the CDs back in the box and where they were before. He grabs his bag and gives me a quick, tight hug spinning me around before opening the door and stepping outside. I'm startled and slightly confused, but I ask anyways,

"Wait, aren't you going to tell me what this genius plan is?"

"Nope, it's gonna be a surprise."

He gives a mischievous grin and I stick my tongue out at him, he laughs and jogs off yelling over his shoulder that he'll text me later. I roll my eyes and shut the door with a small sigh.
