Chapter 4: Unwonted

Ashley's POV

"Wake up, you doofus!" I heard someone yelling as I was shoved off my bed. I fell on the ground in a heap and my eyes snapped open.

"What the hell?!"

"I couldn't help it! You weren't getting up!" Nathan put his hands up in surrender.

"Okay, but why the hell are you here?!"

"You don't remember anything?"

"Uhh no. What happened? Did I do something?" I tried to remember everything that happened last night but all I could get were bits and pieces from everywhere.

"You fell down the stairs and hit your head pretty hard so.." Nathan replies, a bit too quickly and hesistantly.

"Yeah, that seems like something I would do." I shrugged it off. "Anyways, thanks for bringing me home last night." I say and walked towards him, engulfing him in a bear hug. I leaned in to give him a peck on the cheek and, at the same instant, he turned his head around to ask me something which resulted in me kissing him on the lips.

He put his arms around my waist and pulled me closer while I wrapped my arms around his neck to prevent myself from falling. He bit down on my lip, asking for entrance which I, surprising, accepted. His tongue roamed around in my mouth and I smiled into the kiss, if it was even possible...

I heaved a huge sigh of relief and kept my hand on my heart, which was beating as fast as a Bugatti, trying to steady it as I realised that it was a dream.

'Nathan and I didn't kiss. It was imaginary. It was just a dream. Just a dream...'

"Just a dream..." I mumbled under my breath as I turned around in my bed, making myself comfortable when I found a note neatly folded in half lying on the edge of the bed.

I picked it up and opened it.

'Sorry for leaving before you got up but I had to leave. I had promised my friend to help him do something. But to make up for it, I made pancakes for you! (I know how much you love them ;)) Sorry again, and see you in school.

Nathan xx

PS- You look really cute when you sleep ;)'

That was what the note said and it made my cheeks go red in embarrassment. My eyes scanned the note, reading it again, when I saw something that made me smile.

'You're blushing, right? Ha, see, I knew that too! I'm fucking awesome, aren't I?'

I got off the bed and entered my bathroom to take a long bubble bath.

Come on, after all that happened yesterday, I need that bubble bath. Yeah, I do remember everything that happened at that party. Though I wish I didn't...

I stripped of my clothes and jumped into the bathtub.

Clutching the towel tightly, I walk out of the bathroom and into my walk-in closet.

On entering the closet, I drop the towel and quickly slip on a white cut-sleeve top and a light blue jacket with black leggings and stilettos.

I walked out the closet and down the stairs to enter the kitchen. A waffling scent invaded my nose as I walked into the kitchen. I looked round to find the source of the heavenly smell and there it was, lying on the counter, my precious pancakes.
