My Bastard Mafia Leader (Completed)

I Like You

Ashton and I have barely spoken in the past week unless it was for work. I tried to speak to him in the first few days but I gave up after a while. I would walk into a room and Ashton would walk out. As soon as Ashton saw me he would turn around. Example.

Flashback
4 days ago

I just got back from the waterfall with Mia. We went there for a girls talk just to talk about life. We talked about her love life and mine. Needless to say neither one of ours are great and we also talked about the upcoming gala. Sadly I have to attend with Ashton.

I walked in and went to the kitchen for a snack. Ashton was there. The second he saw me he left the kitchen without a word. After my snack I went to the living room to watch some Scooby-Doo. Ashton once again saw me and walked away leaving me to watch tv.

He's just been acting really cold. Like when I first met him. He is always wearing a glare and I feel bad for anyone who has to be by him. Unfortunately I just ran into him in the kitchen.

"Hey May." Ashton said with a much better attitude but I'm not going to talk to him. If he's going to ignore me for a week then I'm going to ignore him for a week.

"May. I said hello." I didn't answer again. He's been cold to me so payback.

I continued to pour my coffee pretending I didn't see or hear him. Ashton walked up behind me and out of the corner of my eye I saw him reach towards me but stopped short. His hand froze in mid air before going back to his side.

"What did I do wrong?"

I did not answer again and poured my coffee. This time he put his hands on either side of the counter trapping me in. My back was against his chest. I missed this in all honesty but I can't back down.

I finished pouring my coffee making sure that none is left for Ashton before I turned around. I had it all planned out.

As I turned around, Ashton backed away. "What did I do?" He asked all innocent. I avoided eye contact and started to walk towards him. I pretended to trip and spilled coffee all over his work suit.

"Sorry. I didn't see you there." He stared at me for a moment before it all went down hill.

"You didn't see me. You didn't see me." He said, his voice getting louder each time. "You didn't see me!"

I decided to feed his anger by playing innocent. Bad choice.

"No. I'm sorry."

"What did I fucking do?" He screamed.

I decided to play dumb. Once again a bad choice. "Is this about the coffee stain. I'll wash your shirt and it should come right out."

"Don't act dumb May. Please." He said, his anger going down slightly but I could still see the fire in his eyes.

"This is what happens when you ignore me for a week." I said laughing even though there was nothing to laugh about.

"That's what this is about?" Ashton asked. "I was trying to figure things out." He finished lamely.

"Was it so complicated you had to ignore me? Am I that much of a distraction?" I yelled. "Am I that bad to be around?!"

"Of course you're a distraction! Look at you!" He screamed and it hurt.

"I have no words for you Ashton. No words." I left the kitchen and went out back. I needed some fresh air. I slammed the door and sat down.

"May. That's-ugh-that's not-"

"I know you don't like me. At this point I'm guessing you hate me but you don't need to play me. You know I like you but please don't play me. Please." I feel ridiculous pleading him. I knew it wouldn't work out but I let myself go there anyways. I like Ashton Gray and why? I don't know. He's just going to hurt me. Slowly I started to realize the tears on my face.

Creeaak

He left. I knew he didn't like me but I still wanted to hope. I wiped my tears and started to sing instead.

I fell
I fell hard

We started out by becoming friends
A kiss here and there
Just something that we shared

You'd smile at me
I'd smile at you
You held me tight and I dared to think that you would never let go
But boy was I wrong

You let me fall
I thought we were standing tall
Thought it was great but boy was I wrong

You'd smile at me
I'd smile at you
I dared to see a world with you
But boy was I wrong

You let me fall
Fall
Fall

You let me fall
Fall
Fall

All while I fell for you

"Bastard."

"That's not what I was trying to say." Ashton whispered.

I whipped around and stared. He never left. He heard it all. He must've closed the door, not open it.

"I'm not going to let you fall. I'll always catch you." He spoke. This time his voice was normal.

"Why are you still here? I'm just a distraction." My voice was just barely audible. I would be surprised if he heard me.

"Yes your a distraction. You distract me all the time with your beautiful smile. Your breath taking laugh. With the way you look. I swear I have my own angel."

"I'm not your angel."

"I like you May. That's what I was trying to figure out. I ignored you because I wanted to deny it. I told myself I wouldn't fall for you but I did. I fell for everything."

No way he likes me. This is a dream. He doesn't like me.

"May." Ashton stood there with a fire in his eyes and a look of desire on his face.

"If this is a trick, please don't fool me Ashton. Don't lie to me." I said slowly standing up. I took a few steps forward until I was right in front of Ashton. His hands went up and caressed my cheeks. I leaned into it slightly because it felt good.

"I'm not lying angel." He whispered. I felt my face heat up a little bit from the nickname. I stared into his eyes and found the truth. I slammed my lips on Ashton's and he didn't hesitate. He put his hands on my waist and pulled me closer to him. We both parted for a breath.

"I like angel." Ashton smiled at me before kissing me again.
