Chapter 13

Hudson's POV:

She quickly rips the curtain from my hand and closes it. Meredith opens her curtain to see what happened.

"Oh my God, Hudson! Here's Ashley!" She yells at me. I'm still shook by myself. I'm such an idiot!

I give Meredith her bottle and walk directly out of the cabins. How am I going to act when I see her now? Should just act like nothing happened? No, this will show me like a jerk. Should I say sorry again? No, this is maybe uncomfortable for her. Before I can find a way out my sister appears.

"You donkey! How could you open her curtain?" Meredith mumbles at me with anger.     

"I didn't know she was there! I followed your voice but caught the wrong cabin." I mumble back.

"Then go apologies for your stupid behavior." She commands me. Ok, maybe Meredith is right. If I don't apologize it's like I didn't care. But as I wanted to go and apologize she came out of the cabin. I just starred at her but couldn't say a word. She stares too and walks towards me. I want to say something but she just walks through to Meredith and ignores me.

After they finished shopping we went to the car but Ashley and I had no conversation so far. It was more of an awkward silence between us. Ashley gets in the car behind me. Meredith sits beside me and makes music. Ashley opens the window so I can see her from my side mirror. She leans on and the wind is blowing through her hair and the sun is shining into her dark blue eyes. She looks beautiful. As we have eye contact I realize that I was staring at her and immediately look away.

Ashley's POV:

I never had such an embarrassment in my life. Even when we first met it wasn't that embarrassing. And Meredith was also present. I ignored him the whole drive. When we arrived home I immediately head into Meredith's bedroom so I don't have to talk to him. As soon as Meredith closes the door she speaks to me.

"Honey, I'm really sorry that Hudson..."

"No, it's ok you don't have to apologize. So, can we please change the subject?" I interrupt Meredith. I don't want to talk with his sister about it even though she is my best friend.

"Ok. So do you want to watch a movie?" She asks me.

"You don't have to ask me. You know what I'm going to say." I smile. I love watching movies. I could watch movies all day and never get tired of it.

"Ok then! Which movie?" She smiles back.

"I don't care until it is romantic. So you choose and I go remove my make up in the bathroom." I say and walk out of her room.

"Ok, I'm going to make popcorn in the kitchen too." She says and I get excited. She knows exactly what I like.

When I'm in the bathroom done removing my makeup somebody's knocking on the door. I open it quickly and see Hudson. As I recognize myself staring at him with wide eyes I  immediately look away. I want to walk out of the bathroom as he blocks the way and walks in. I frighten and he turns to close the bathroom door with the key. I'm getting very nervous.

"What are you doing?" I almost yell at him. As soon as I asked I remember Meredith could hear me.

"I know you were ignoring me because of what happened in H&M..." He starts to say.

"Apologize accepted. Now let me out." I snap.

"Ashley, please don't be mad at me. That was an accident. I'm sorry." He touches my arm. I get more nervous by his touch. He really seems like he feels sorry for me.

"Alright, I'm not mad at you. Now stop talking about this and let me out before anyone sees us." I fear.

"Hello? Who's in here?" Marie-Anne suddenly asks through the door.

Hudson and I stare at the door and then back to each other with wide eyes. Oh no, how should we get out without a misunderstanding?
