Crippling Love

Chapter 15

As Asher was looking for KC he saw Katelyn approaching.

'No! Why is she here again!?'

*Ring* *Ring* *Ring*

Asher's phone rang.

"Hi, Ash. Where are you?" Katelyn asked talking on the phone while looking around.

"!" Asher heard her voice through his phone and check the name of who called. Sure enough, it said KC.

"K-Katelyn?" Asher asked both confused and shocked.

"!!!" Hearing Asher's voice from her phone and in front of her Katelyn was extremely shocked.

"Asher? I'd really like to talk to you right now but I'm looking for someone."

"Is this s-someone the p-person you love?"

"...Yeah..." She said her expression immediately softened and she was happy.

"I see. So you're m-madly in love?" Asher smiled the emotion in eyes unreadable.

"I am." She said smiling nothing but admiration in her eyes. "I mean-" She then remembered how in love Asher was with her and tried to fix the mess she was creating.

"It's okay. I t-totally ship it." He smiled happily slightly blushing

"What? but-" She was visibly confused.

"You w-want to make up for w-what you did to me b-before right?" Asher smirked mischievously.

"I do."

"Let's say I p-p-personally know A-Ash... And I w-were to say he l-likes you b-back and w-wanted to kiss you... W-would you... let him?" Asher smiled teasingly.

"If you're okay with it... Sure." Katelyn replied nervously.

"G-good. C-cl-close your eyes."
She did as she was told.

Asher stared at her full pink lips and his face turned bright red. He moved closer until he was only one centimetre apart.

Katelyn could feel his warm breath on her lips. Asher's face began to heat up intensely and in the end, he decided to just kiss her on her cheek.

She opened her eyes and saw no one there except for her and Asher. Asher's face was bright red and looked nervous and almost like he was about to faint.

Katelyn was confused and slightly angry that Asher had lied to her, "Gasp! Did you-"

"Hi there K-KC. I'm A-Ash." Asher smiled nervously as he waved.

"W-what...?" Katelyn anger quickly dissipated into confusion.

"I knew you'd be p-pretty in p-person. In fact, you're g-gorgeous." Asher said looking her in her eyes.

"Wait... No...?"

"You were r-right she was a t-total idiot for r-r-rejecting me."

"I- K-k"

"Mmm? I t-thought you w-wanted me to k-kiss you? A-according to you I had c-consent." Asher tilted his trying his best to stick to the plan of teasing her.

"Yes but no... There's no way...you're not actually...him...I told him everything..." A light shade of pink began to appear on her cheeks.

Asher smirked, "A-about how your b-bastard of a father m-mistreated you? About your c-c-childhood? About what you w-went through for h-helping me? A-about how dumb you were for r-rejecting me?"

"Please stop. I don't want to think about all the embarrassing things I've said and done."

"But it's so fun t-teasing you b-because of how c-c-cute you are w-when you b-blush."
