Sensitive Topics

Ascella's POV
SMUT WARNING
I rocked my hips against Enzo as he thrusted into me erratically. I couldn't help the moans and whimpers coming from my lips. He kissed me again and tugged gently at my hair. I ran my hands up his back and into his messy mop of brown hair, kissing him deeper.
"Fuck, please don't stop, Enzo."
He chuckled and thrusted faster, "You like that?"
"Mm, yes!"
He moved his arms above my head to hold the headboard and went faster. The board hit the wall, but we didn't care. He let out a few grunts before cumming inside, still thrusting harshly so I could follow after him.

Nick's POV
I laughed, walking into the house with Liv, Fin and Amanda. They were a bit drunker than I was, so I got them some water.
"Hey, Nick..." Amanda slurred slightly, looking up at me, "Who's car was that in the driveway?"
I looked out the window and saw the unfamiliar car. Suddenly, creaking and tapping resonated from upstairs. I let out a laugh and shook my head, slightly uncomfortable but amused.
"Looks like Ascella has someone over."
Fin laughed, "Good for her."
We drank and talked until the creaking ended. We stayed quiet, wondering if one of them will come downstairs. Ascella emerged in sweats and a t-shirt, flustered once she saw us.
She cleared her throat, "Hi..."
Liv smirked, "Have fun?"
"Um..."
"Hey, Ella? Did I bring my jacket in?" We saw a young man in a green shirt and black pants. He looked up and stuttered, "Oh, um..."
"This is Enzo...Enzo, my dad and his colleagues."
"Enzo Cooke, nice to meet you." He shook my hand respectively. Liv raised her brow, "Hold on. Enzo Cooke?"
"Detective Benson." He smiled, "How are you?"
"I'm well, wow, Enzo. Last time I checked you were a lanky 17 year old boy."
"Well, it's been a few year and I'm 100% clean. How's Dr. Huang? And Detective Stabler?"
Everyone was quiet when he mentioned Elliot Stabler. Ascella looked confused, "What's wrong?"
"Um, I replaced Liv's old partner...it's a sensitive topic." I whispered into her ear. She nodded and went to Enzo, "It was nice meeting and seeing you all. I should head out." He insisted, walking out the door with Ascella and to his car. I watched from the window discreetly, seeing them chat and share a brief kiss. She smiled and waved goodbye as he drove away. Once she made her way back in, the squad got ready to leave. Liv looked warily at her, "Did you use a condom?"
Ascella sputtered, "L-Liv!"
"Answer the question."
"Yes...I did. And I know what he did back then. He told me..."
"Did you bother to ask?"
"If he had HIV? Yes."
"Look, Ascella. We just want you safe..."
Ascella shook her head and looked to me, "He used anything he could get his hands on. Stayed at a home but the owner drugged him up to keep him quiet and he got addicted...he's clean though. Nearly 4 years now..."
I nodded and kissed her head, "Get some rest..."
She sighed and nodded, heading upstairs.

Ascella's POV
~a week later~
I sat in the cafeteria and looked through my books. Approaching footsteps caused me to look up. There: stood a few girls and boys who seemed pretty interested and serious.
"You're Ascella Amaro, right?"
"Who's asking?"
"I'm McKenzie Knight. I used to know Charlie Harris. Dated him."
Oh fuck...
I looked at all of them, closed my books, and placed my hands in my lap, fidgeting.
"Look, we don't want any trouble."
"That's what people say when there's trouble coming..." I retorted.
"Ascella, we-"
"Ella? What's going on?" Enzo came up behind me and put a hand on my shoulder, causing the tension to subside.
"We're friends of her ex-boyfriend and his best friend. Just wanted to chat." McKenzie said.
"Go on, I'm sure you can chat. You don't have anything to hide from campus security, right?" Enzo sat next to me, wrapping his arm around my shoulder. I couldn't even look at them. I recognised one of the boys from Olly's lacrosse team.
"Here." One boy set a piece of paper on the table, "There's a party going on tonight. McKenzie is just being a bitch, but we wanted to invite you. I remember when you were with Olly. You're a cool kid. If you want to go too, you can Mr. Cooke."
Enzo grabbed it, "You'll know if we go or not. Have a good day."
They walked off and Enzo kissed my head, cupping my face, "Hey...Ella, look at me."
I did, feeling tears in my eyes, "I'm sorry."
"Sh...I know Olly's a sensitive topic..." I shook my head and gathered my stuff.
"I should get to class..." I grabbed my books and the invitation before walking off.

Later that day, I went home and got ready. I was gonna go to that party, no matter what Enzo says. I applied lipstick and fixed my hair. Then I went to the door and opened it, only to find Enzo with his arms crossed.
"You really thought you could go to a party?"
I looked away, "I want to know why-"
"They invited you? To make you feel bad. Humiliate you. Take ad-"
"Don't finish that sentence." I turned away from him and sighed.
"Ascella...you don't have to prove yourself to anyone..."
I looked at him before grabbing my bag, "Then I don't have to prove to you that I'm capable of taking care of myself." I walked out of the house.
"Ascella! Ascella!" Enzo called after me as I got in my car and drove away. I arrived to the party and locked my car, stuffing my keys into my jacket.

I entered and looked around.
"Ascella!" I turned to see McKenzie smiling and waving me down. I walked over to her and greeted them awkwardly.
"Hi..."
"Glad you could make it! No boyfriend?"
"He...couldn't make it. So, what happens at these things?"
"You've never been to a party?"
"I'm not much of a party girl...and I'm a minor and my dad's sorta a cop. I don't like breaking laws. Especially underage drinking." I laughed, shaking my head to a cup of whatever being offered to me. The others laughed, "Cmon, Ascella! That's what college is all about!"
I bit my lip and looked around, then I saw a familiar face. He saw me too and smiled, sifting through the crowd towards me.
"Well, looky here. How you doing?"
I hugged him, "Oh, Paulo. How are you?"
"I'm good. I thought you don't go to things like these."
"I was invited by...friends of Olly and Charlie."
He looked to them and back at me, "Chica, I don't-"
"Save me." I mouthed with a smile. He smirked and we went upstairs in a hall.
"So, what brings you here?" I wondered. He shrugged, looking away, "I...I'm dealing."
I furrowed my brows, "Paulo..."
"Hey, people aren't as fortunate as you, Ella..."
I crossed my arms and went to the railing he was leaning against, "I know that, Paulo."
"I'm sorry. That was rude.."
"No, I basically ruined your prom night."
"Well, I kissed you in front of your date."
"My date was drunk as shit and a liar." I scoffed.
"Heard you have a new boy, a bit of a fresa."
I rolled my eyes, "That's rude. He is not a fresa."
Paulo smirked and drank his beer. I sighed and looked at him, "If you didn't have to deal and put up with gang shit, would you have gone to school?"
"Yeah. Wanted to be an architect..." he murmured. I nodded, "I know you did..."
We stood in silence before I heard my name get called.
"Ascella!" I turned to see Enzo. I went to him and he hugged me, "God, don't do that." He looked at Paulo and then back at me, "Seems like you know him."
"My ex: Paulo, Paulo, my current: Enzo."
They shook hands and Enzo sighed, "Can we get out of here?"
"Yeah, let's go. I'll see you, Paulo."
"Adios." He smirked as we walked away. Enzo had an arm wrapped around me as we made our way to the door, then a loud voice reached my ears.

"Hey, Enzo! How's your son?!"
