As BIM 1 finally ended Asia began her way to her next classes. Today actually went by pretty quickly and it was already time for lunch. "Hey Asia!" Owen says walking up to her. "Hey Owen. How was class?" Asia asks sitting down. Asia was kinda surprised Emmett wasn't here. "He probably is late or kept after class." Asia thought to herself. "It was good. Can I sit with you for lunch?" Owen asks nervously. "Yeah of course anytime." Asia says kindly. "I don't know where Emmett is so it's just us." Asia is kinda sad.
*Emmett's POV* He was in the mens locker room before lunch began. "Crap, it's already time for lunch. I'm 10 mins late. I gotta go. See you later." Emmett says outta breath and running off. "Dammit I completely forgot about Asia. I hope everything is okay." Emmett says rushing to the cafeteria. Emmett see's Owen with Asia talking. Emmett smiled as he thought about how happy this made him. Seeing Asia happy is what he hopes she gets. Like he may have.
*Back to Asias and Owen*
"Honestly I'm kinda nervous for practice today." Owen says as he shrugs. "You'll be okay." Asia says trying to lighten him up. "I'm just curious, but why did you sit with me?" Asia asks. Owen got lost in thought. "Be a man and not a snitch!" Carlos screamed at Owen. "Really? I'm not someone who harasses someone with trauma. You guys are the assholes!" Owen yells back. Tiara and Carlos were talking about how they were going to embarrass Asia, but he doesn't know how it will happen. He just heard they were going to make Asia look bad in front of other people.
"Owen, Owen. Hello. You there?" Asia says waving her hand in front of Owen. "Oh I'm sorry just lost in the train of thought. Wait Asia don't go to that party on Saturday!" Owen kinda yells in her face. "Tiara is going to humiliate you on Saturday." Owen says fast. "What? She made up with me she apologized and she's really nice." Asia says confused. "Don't go to the party. What I heard was true." Owen pleads to Asia. "She seemed very friendly when I met her. You're just pranking me, it's not funny." Asia says, sounding annoyed. "Asia please just listen I wouldn't lie to you." Owen says in a forced way. "Owen I've had so many people lie to me already. I don't need anymore. At-least Emmett doesn't lie to me." Asia says getting her stuff and ready. Emmett heard the whole thing. This made his heart drop. "Don't bother coming after me." Asia says storming off. Emmett hid because he didn't want to see Asia. The thought made it worse. Asia made her way to class.
Once class ended she went to practice and avoided Owen. She sat there with some papers she was filling out on their movements and stamina. Once practice ended she told Emmett she needed some time to think. Emmett almost hid from her again, but he knew Asia needed someone to talk to. "I'm sorry I just need to think about some stuff." Asia tells Emmett feeling bad. "It's okay thanks for telling me." Emmett says faking a smile. "Thanks Emmett I really appreciate it." Asia says walking off. Emmett was relieved it went decently. "Hey Owen." Emmett said, walking up to Owen. "Hey." Owen said, upset. "You okay? You looked really upset." Emmett asks, feeling even more bad. "I'm fine. Thanks for asking though." Owen says. "Well I gotta go see ya tomorrow." Emmett says waving off and heading to Asia's car. Owen waves back.
As Asia makes her way to her car, she couldn't decide whether she should believe Owen or not. "Is he lying?" Asia says to herself. She couldn't comprehend the truth. "I'll figure it out later." Asia says driving home. Asia was honestly so tired. She dropped off Emmett. Asia finally got home she ran upstairs and plopped on to her bed. She wanted to sleep, but she was all sweaty from running home. Asia got out a tank top and shorts and hopped into the shower. She did her skin care and brushed her hair. She heard and felt her phone vibrate. It was Owen. Asia didn't want to answer.
Owen: Asia please I wasn't lying to you.
Asia left him and read. She thought Carlos put him up to this for fun and that's why he sat with her. Asia felt Emmett was the only person who never lies to her. Tiara had been so nice to Asia and even apologized to her after making her upset. Asia felt Tiara had no reason to lie to her. Owen decided to see if Asia responded back and he saw she left him and read. "Well I guess she still doesn't want to talk." Owen said, upset. He doesn't want Asia to get humiliated at the party. "Maybe if I get there in time I can stop anything before it happens." Owen thought to himself. Owen got ready and tried to fall asleep.
Asia honestly couldn't really sleep knowing what Owen had told her. She had a lot of thinking to do. Asia heard a vibrate from her phone.
Asia's mom: Hey honey I'm getting home late. I'm sorry I got caught up with some stuff. I love you.
Asia: It's okay to be safe. I love you too.
Asia was glad it wasn't Owen that texted her again. Her trusting men has gotten hard. She felt Tiara wouldn't do anything else with her already apologizing. Owen really wanted to try to tell Asia, but he knew to leave her alone. Owen finally managed to sleep and so did Asia. She couldn't stop thinking about it even when she slept. As Asia fell asleep she didn't realize Owen was right.
