Fire and Ash

Chapter 5

"Great minds discuss ideas; 

average minds discuss events; 

small minds discuss people."

-Eleanor Roosevelt

As I see his house i can't do anything else than letting a loud "wow" escape my mouth.

Jess, Katie and Ruby look at me while chuckling.

I let Jessie and Katie go in.

- Wait - I say to Ruby.

- Yes? - she asks confused.

- You look amazing, as always, just let them see it - I say winking at her.

- Thank you - she answers.

- For what? - I ask.

- For this - she says pointing at herself - and for being so nice - she finishes.

- Isn't that what friends are for? - I ask smiling.

We enter the house and see everyone looking at us, we really do look amazing.

We see Jess and Katie, they're talking to Lukas and another boy I've seen around.

Ruby and I look at each other, smiling, a sincere smile, this is happiness.

I notice someone touching my shoulder and turn around to see who this person is.

- Hey - he says with a caring tone.

- Oh, hey Hunter - I answer with a smile.

- Are you alone? - he asks worried.

I look to where Ruby was standing and notice she isn't there anymore.

My phone vibrates as soon as I want to look for her.

Ruby: Have fun ;)

Damn, she's really the devil.

- I guess I am - I say laughing.

- Should we get something to drink? - he asks.

- Is there anything else here than alcohol? - I ask with an innocent tone.

- Of course, there's water and sodas I think - he says giving me a smile afterwards. 

I have to say he's really nice and he seems caring.

I notice I still haven't seen Asher yet, I wonder where he is.

- Yes, sure, by the way, do you know by any chance if something happened to Asher? - I ask worried.

- He's okay, he just isn't a party type of guy, you know? - he answers.

- Yeah, I kinda ain't one myself but since Asher and you asked me, I guess I just thought it would be a good idea - I say.

- Good choice, we will probably see Asher in a little, like I said, he's usually late because he doesn't really care about these parties - he says.

- Okay, thanks, so, should we get those drinks? - I answer politely.

- Yes, come on - he says as he takes my hand.

We start walking around the house until we finally reach the kitchen.

I start drinking my soda and keep talking to Hunter until I have the feeling that someone's watching me.

I try to search for someone staring at me, but the only person that I see is...

- Asher! - I shout.

Hunter looks slightly surprised as he sees me smiling towards Asher.

There are a lot of girls around Asher, surprised he even came, they want to use the opportunity to try and get his number or even give him little papers with theirs.

But he really doesn't care, he knows that as soon as he talks to one of them she's going to faint or something.

He walks towards me and sees Hunter.

- Am I interrupting something? - he says looking at Hunter.

I don't know why but it sounded kind of bitter, still I let it slide.

- Of course not, we were just talking - I answer quite fast.

- Oh so if it's that way, would you mind if I steal Kira for a moment? - he asks Hunter.

- No, it's okay, I don't mind - he answers with a cold tone I've never heard on him.

Asher takes my hand and walks me outside.

- So,  wait - he says looking kind of confused.

The moonlight is shining right on my face, I notice.

- Your eyes, I didn't notice before, they are like some sort of grey or even blue, they are beautiful - he continues.

He then smiles at me, which makes me notice that his smile forms two cute dimples. 

- Thanks - I say trying not to blush.

What the hell is happening? One second ago we were just greeting each other and now I can't seem to stop thinking about how cute he looks under this moon. 

He then notices how close we are and takes a step back.

- So, do you want to go back inside? - he asks.

- Didn't you want to tell me something? - I say.

- I just wanted to excuse myself for coming so late, I didn't expect you to be here so early - he explains.

- And you just kidnapped me outside for that? - I say trying to contain myself so I don't start laughing.

He notices.

- What's so funny, kitten? - he says with a smirk.

- What did you just call me? - I yell at him.

- Kitten - he says with a challenging look.

 - You just didn't - I say laughing.

- Oh, yes I did - he says giggling. 

I start tickling him, I don't know what just comes over me, but I don't usually act this impulsive.

We can't stop laughing until...

- Kira? - Ruby asks awkwardly.

Asher and I look at each other and stop laughing.

- Yes? - I answer.

- What are you doing on the floor, and why are you on top of Asher Grey?
