Ashley crept out of the room, fixing her hair. She quietly shut the door behind her and started to make her way upstairs, heading for Reese's room. She almost collided with a happy looking Trinity as she skipped down the stairs.

"Ash!" She said, her grin somehow becoming wider. Ashley raised an eyebrow, giving her a little wave. She frowned when she realized how distant her and Trinity had been the last couple of days. Sure they had spoken a little, but they were always with the boys, or Rose and Grace. "Is everything okay?"

"Yeah, I was just thinking how we haven't spent time together lately," Trinity furrowed her eyebrows, deep in thought.

"Well let's spend time together now," she grabbed Ashley's hand and began to drag her upstairs. Chuckling Ashley followed her friend. They sat of Ashley and Reese's bed, just talking.

"Trin, what's that on your neck?" Ashley asked, Trinity's eyes winded and she pulled her hair over her shoulder, her cheeks becoming rosy.

"Nothing," she said, avoiding Ashley's gaze.

"Trinity," Ashley warned.

"Nico marked me," Trinity mumbled.

"He did what?"

"It's hard to explain," Ashley just nodded. The girls jumped when a knock on the door broke the silence. Ashley got up and opened the door to see Reese standing there, clutching his side.

"I thought the doctor told you to rest," Ashley pointed out, watching him as he walked past him.

"He never said I couldn't rest in my own bed," he chuckled, trinity got to her feet and gave him a friendly smile.

"I'll leave you two in peace," Ashley gave her friend a sympathetic smile as she left the room.

"How are you feeling?" She asked, shutting the door.

"I'm alright, I only hurt a little," he said, wincing in pain as he climbed under the duvet. He patted the empty space next to him and Ashley sighed, flopping down on top of the covers. "Are you okay?" She looked up at him, giving a weak smile. "Did you have another dream?" She nodded, her eyes wandering around the room. "I'm not going to push you, but you can tell me anything, you know that, don't you?" She looked up him, unaware of the tears that began to gather in her eyes. He pulled her into a hug.

She sobbed into his chest for at least five minutes before she controlled her breathing, pulling back. She leant on her elbow, watching as Reese studied her. Her eyes flickered to his lips and she leaned down, placing a small kiss on them. As she sat back he sent her a confused glance.

"I need to take a shower," she sighed, pushing herself to her feet. On her way to the bathroom she managed to trip on her duffel bag, thankfully getting her hands down before she busted her nose. She sent a glare over her should when she heard Reese laughing. She got to her feet.

"Aw, Ashley, I'm falling for you too," he chuckled when Ashley rolled her eyes, making her way into the bathroom. She ran the water and stripped. As she shut off the water she mentally slapped herself, wrapping her towel around herself. She opened the door ever so slightly, peering into the bedroom. Reese watched her, an amused look dominating his face.

"Cover your eyes," she demanded, smiling when Reese threw his hand over his eyes with a sigh. She slipped out of the bathroom and knelt down beside her duffle bag, quickly grabbing a pair of shorts and a flimsy t-shirt. She checked that Reese still had his eyes covered before jogging back into the bathroom.

"Nice shower?" Reese chuckled as she came out of the bathroom, fully clothed.

"I guess," she said with a shrug. She gave him a weird look when he smirked. "What?"
