"Have you ever heard of nyctophilia?"

A month later...
Celestes POV Asher and I were sat in the living room watching a serial killer documentary on a Saturday afternoon, like we usually did. I was sat between his legs on the couch with Salem on my lap. Asher had his arms wrapped around my waist, whilst I played with the rings on his fingers.
Things had been perfect, until today.
Asher never spoke to me about his parents after that night, and I forgot about it until like a week later. I decided that later on today, I was gonna confront him about it. We have been together for over a month, and I feel like now I at least deserve to know something.
"Can you believe that?" I exclaimed as I shoved some popcorn into my mouth.
Some guy murdered loads of people then ate some parts of them. How gross!
"I don't even understand why someone would want to eat a human in the first place." Asher said with a laugh and I giggled with him.
"I know! I once watched one where this guy-"
"Celeste!" Ambrose shouted, cutting me off as he walked in with Mateo making me frown.
Whenever Asher and I were alone together he always found a way to ruin it. The only time Asher and I could ever get any privacy was when he'd sneak into my room at night... which he had been doing a lot more often.
"What?"
He looked at the tv then towards us and narrowed his eyes at Asher and I, before he spoke. "Mateo needs Asher."
Aww. I thought we'd get to spend the whole day together. I turned my head to Asher to see an angry look on his face.
I furrowed my brows and pouted at them. They made Asher angry, I hate when he gets angry.
"I don't care." Ashers deep voice, grumbled harshly as he gripped onto my waist tighter.
Mateo stepped forward and ran a hand through his hair. "It's really important, Asher. I've been ringing you for hours." He said through gritted teeth as he glared at Asher.
"Can't it wait?" I whined as I looked between the two of them staring at each other.
Don't go.
Don't go.
Please, don't go.
"Can you guys give us a second?" He said, then the boys nodded and left.
