We've been back at my house for about two hours and I've already had about too much to drink with the girls, and Ross and the guys have been gone since we got here.

I was in the middle of dancing with Jocelyn and Cameron, too drunk and having too much fun to care where Ross was and why he disappeared as soon as we got here. Okay, maybe I do care a little.

Until I see Mackenzie walking down the stairs with Ross' hat on followed by the one and only.

Angry and jealous I stumble toward the two. "What the fuck were you two doing up there?! And why is she wearing your hat?" I get in Ross's face not able to stand still. My head was spinning.

"We weren't doing anything, we weren't even in the same room and you have my hat on, baby." He chuckles grabbing onto me tightly so I wouldn't fall.

"But you came down together." I frown. "I was smoking with Andy, Carter, and Jonathan. I'm with you, Why be with her?" He kisses me.

"Yo Ross, you gonna come back for another hit?" Andy comes down with bloodshot eyes, and I realize I was overreacting. "Nah, I'm gonna take a break for a bit." He says and turns to me.

"Come on, let's get you some water." We walk towards the kitchen and he hands me a cold water bottle. "My head is spinning," I say leaning my head on his shoulder as he rubs my back.

"How much did you drink?" He asks concerned lifting my head. "Over five shots of who knows what. They kept coming and I kept drinking." I giggle kissing his jaw.

"Okay, let's get you to bed, you're way too drunk." He shakes his head wrapping one arm tightly around my waist and the other under my legs to carry me as we walk up to my room.

He lays me on my bed and locks my door so nobody gets in. He carefully takes off my clothes and takes his shirt off to put it on me.

"Stay with me." I pout grabbing his arm. "I'm not going anywhere, baby." He climbs into bed next to me pulling me closer to him and kissing my forehead.

"We should have drunk sex." I giggle and start kissing his neck sloppily. "How about we do that when you're sober." He pulls me off softly.

"You slept with her and now you don't want me anymore." I pout and he shakes his head. "Ashley, I didn't sleep with anyone and of course I want you but you're drunk off your ass and I'm not taking advantage of you like this."

"Do you still love me?" I pull him closer. "Yes baby, I love you a lot." He kisses my forehead and creases my cheek making me fall into a deep sleep.

I woke up to an empty bed and a throbbing headache. Before I can sit up and try to process what happened last night, Ross walks through the door with a glass of water and some painkillers.

"Hey beautiful, how're you feeling?" He hands me the pills and the glass of water and kisses my forehead. His forehead kisses are my favorite.

"Terrible, what happened last night?" I ask rubbing my temple."You got a little too drunk. We need to talk about something." He sits on the bed and now I'm worried.

"Oh no, what did I do? Wait, did you do something?" He shakes his head and grabs my hand. "No I didn't do anything, but last night you saw me and Mackenzie coincidently walking down the stairs at the same time and flipped out because you thought I had cheated on you. You have to be able to trust me a little more, baby."

"Did you?" I ask and he pulls at his roots in frustration. "No, Ashley, this is exactly what I'm talking about. Look, you can be stubborn, frustrating, and extremely hard-headed but at the end of the day you're the only one I want." He scoots in closer and lifts my chin. "There is no other girl I would want to be with, I love you but you have to be able to trust me and not freak out whenever I'm around a girl, Okay?"

"I'm sorry. I do trust you it's just that she's so much prettier than me and she's always trying to get your attention, I'm afraid you might leave me for her. I don't trust her." I shrug while playing with the comforter and his face drops.

It's true. I always see how every girl practically drools over him and he doesn't even notice. I'll admit I get jealous when it happens because I don't want any other girls looking at him or throwing themselves at him. He's my boyfriend, I'm allowed to feel like this.

"What? Are you kidding? Ashley, I'm crazy about you. There are times when I can't even keep my eyes or hands off of you. You're beautiful, sexy, and exciting, I would never leave you for any girl, you're perfect." He creases my cheek and I give him a small smile.

"Come here." He pulls me into his lap and grabs my face kissing me passionately. "Do you know how many times I have to stop myself from beating the crap out of every guy that even glances at you? But I don't because I know you wouldn't be with any of them. I love you, all of you, okay?" He says pressing me closer to his body. I don't say anything just kiss him back hungrily. 

After a few seconds, we pull away and he tucks some of my hair behind my ear. "Put some shorts on or something and we'll go out for breakfast." He pecks my lips and squeezes my ass for me to get up.

I lazily get up and throw on a pair of gym shorts. I tie my hair in a messy bun and put on my glasses. I walk towards the bathroom to brush my teeth and right after walk back to my room throwing on my moccasins.

"Ready?" I give Ross a big smile. "Let's go." he smiles back grabbing my hand and leading me out.
