The Way We Lie

"Hey guys, guess who just invited us to Junior Skip Day?" Junior Skip Day. One Friday, every few months, all the Juniors skip school. That's the day after tomorrow...

"I think I'll pass-" Jess hit my arm.

"Of course, Dee and I will be there." I glared at her, and she just smiled and nodded her head towards Ash.

"If Dee is going, then I'll make sure to be there too." I looked up at Ashton, his green eyes meeting my Hetercromia eyes. "Why am I just now noticing you have one blue eye, and one brown eye?" Corbin looked at him with a weird face.

"Well it's hard not to notice lad, maybe you're just blind." Ash chuckled under his breath. "Blinded by her beauty." He said it in such a hushed tone, I don't think anyone but me picked up on it. The teacher told us all to go back to our seats, and he went on talking about X,Y, and Z.

The last bell rang. Finally, school is over. I was packing my bags, Corbin kissed my head, and left without a word. I still needed time. The teacher left for the bathroom, and I made my way out the door, then something grabbed my hand. I turned, ready to hit someone, but Ash caught my other hand.

He leaned in, and I didn't even back away. He put one hand behind my waist, and tucked hair behind my ear. I could feel his breath on my neck. I was aware of his hands on my body. I wanted more. I craved more. But why? I can't think like this- But then he whispered into my ear, causing my body to go static.

"You want to devour me, huh? I thought you were eyeing me like I was a meal, darling." His hands brushed against my throat, and he left. He just fucking left. What in the world am I doing?
