➳ novel // sal x ash

"Hey! Sal, where are we going?"

"Just wait, Ash."

The girl was confused, where was Sal taking her? They were already in the woods, so she was scared something bad will happen.

Maybe Sal decided to take a break from investigating in Addison's Apartments and thought it was a good idea to investigate the woods? But Sal wouldn't do something as stupid as that with just the two of them, plus Sal wasn't bringing his super gear boy or anything!

So many questions popped in Ashley's head as to where Sal was bringing her, and before she knew it she realized they were now on top of a hill, below them were the town of Nockfell and the woods they have just been to.

It was a beautiful scenery indeed.

"Sal.."

She looked around her, and she saw a guitar, laying on the ground.

"Sal, what is that?" She asked him.

Sal looked at the guitar, walked up to it and grabbed it.

"It's a new guitar I bought, do you like it?" Sal said.

Did Sal just brought her here just to show off his new guitar? She chuckled.

"Sal, did you really just brought me here just for this?" She said as she giggled.

"No no! It's something else.." Sal said, surprised.

"Okaaay." Ashley replied.

"Just sit down, I'll show you."

She immediately sat down, shifting a little so she can feel comfortable. Sal sat down with her, sighed, and played the guitar.

In a world of places lets go somewhere we haven't gone.
We've got younger faces than our hearts are letting on.
And we won't place any stock in old days.
Lets save up for something new.
Someday I won't have to wait for you.

What if I asked, What if I asked you to stay?
What if it cost you your heart and your last name?
and we won't place any stock in old days.
Lets save up for something new.

Someday I won't have to wait for you.
And when we sleep at night I hope that we right novels in our heads of what to tell the other when we wake.
and when morning comes before we're done with volumes left to chose lets say "I love you."
Just "I love you."
"I love you."
and "I love you too."

"Wow.."

That was the only thing Ash could say before she hugged the blue haired boy, the boy surprised of the girls action.

"That was amazing Sal! You're really great at playing the guitar." Ashley said, as she hugged the boy tighter.

"Oh uhm, thanks Ashley, but.. You get what I mean right?" Sal said.

"Huh?" Ash said as she let go of Sal.

"Uh, w-well! I know you won't accept my feelings but, I'm.. In love with you Ash." Sal anxiously said, silently hoping she would like him back.

Wait, Sal liked her? She thought to herself.

Noticing that Ash didn't say a single word, scared that she might not accept his confession, Sal quickly said :

"It's okay if you don't like me Ash, I just wanted to get it off my chest.. Since this is going to be the last day I will ever meet you before you move for college."

"No, Sal."

She gripped his arms tightly, and looked at his blue eyes, even though she can't really see it due to his prosthetic.

"I love you too." She said.

When Sal heard that, he sighed in relief, his crush loved him back! Although Sal still has some doubts on his mind.. But he decided to ignore them.

"I'm glad that you like me too, Ash, or else it might be awkward after bringing you here and singing a song for you." Sal said.

The girl giggled.

"Well.. That means we're official, right?" Ashley asked Sal.

Sal simply nodded.

"But, I'm going to College soon.." Ash added as she sighed.

"It's okay! I'll wait for you until you graduate, and then we can be together." Sal replied with hope in his eyes.

"Haha, you're so sweet. Sal.."

She hugged him, once more, before she left for college.
