The Right Side

Chapter 24

Avery's POV

Ash is zipping up her bag. I gave her all her clothes back and I'm in a little dress that makes me look tiny and help less.

"You... you uh... got everything?" I ask and she looks around.

"I feel like I'm forgetting something..." she says looking around. "Ah yes right." She says and she comes and picks me up bridal style.

"Ah! Ash!" I say giggling.

"Yup you are coming with me." She says walking over to her bag. There is a cough at the door and I see hades standing there. Ash sets me down lightly.

"We are leaving." He says plainly. Ash grabs her bag and nods. We start walking out when Ash stops me.

"Here." She says handing me one of her jackets. I look at it. "Take it. Something needs to keep you warm in that..." she looks me up and down, "dress."

I blush a little and take the jacket. I put it on. It smells like her. We walk out and to the helicopter. Ash puts her bag in.

"Well Princess. It was a pleasure to kidnap you." Liam says and Zac laughs.

"Ya, I think Ash didn't mind either." Zac says chuckling. I laugh.

"Take care of yourselves okay." I say pointing at them.

"Yes ma'am." They day at the same time and go to the helicopter.

Delaney comes and gives me a big hug. "Oh thank you thank you thank you thank you! If it wasn't for you Zac and I wouldn't be together! You are one of my greatest friends!" She says and I give her a big hug.

"Take care of those boys and Ash for me." I say laughing a little.

"Of course." She says turning and going to the helicopter.

Ash walks over.

"Well uh..." she starts but stops. I see Hades about to come get Ash but Liam stops him.

"Ash... thank you for protecting me." I say lightly and she nods.

"I'm sorry for leaving you on Christmas Eve." Ash says lightly. Her nose getting red from the cold.

"Ya no it's... it's okay..." I say looking down and she lifts my head up with her cold long fingers.

"Maybe we will have a reason to kidnap you again one day." She says with a smirk.

"I think I would like that." I say with a light smile. She gives me the smallest smile and nods.

"I- uh got to go... Ha- wonderful- no... what do you say during Christmas again?" Ash asks.

"Merry Christmas." I say laughing a little.

"Oh right! Merry Christmas, love." She says with a smirk and she gets into the helicopter without looking back.

Ash POV

I can't leave her. I know if I look back I won't be able to leave her. I strap myself into the helicopter so I can't go back.

Why is it so hard to leave her. And why does my back hurt so much!

Zac pats my shoulder and Liam nods at me. We take off.

I look down at her. She is looking up waving. God she is so cute. I smile a little but I heard a cough that puts my atomic face back on.

I hate this so much.

Avery's POV

I sit in my room. There is a knock then someone comes in. Natasha.

"Hey Avery." She says getting on the bed and giving me a hug.
