ruel / the flight attendant's daughter

chapter 8 <3

ashleys pov

i started heading back towards ruel after feeling how freezing the ocean was. he was taking his shirt off so i awkwardly looked away not wanting him to think im a perv. then i felt two hands grab onto my back n i was being carried into the water.

excuse u. what the heck do u think ur doing. we only just met. PUT ME DOWN

he just laughed and kept running. gosh that laugh made me melt. i had gotten lost in my thoughts n then was awoken by the sensation of cold water surrounding me

oops i forgot i was carrying u

he said w a huge smile plastered on his face

no its fine. u have just started war.

i swam off alone n then looked back too see no ruel. i felt something brush past my leg which frightened me until i realised it was ruel.

so whats ur fave thing to do in ur spare time

i asked as he submerged from the water

umm either come here or watch marvel movies. how bout u miss ashley

staying up till the morning n sleeping in till the arvo. or of course listening to music. or watching the grinch. i know im random...

whats ur music taste like? favourite artist?

has to be tate mcrae idk if u know her. lowks like billie eilish but not at the same time.

ive listened to her work before. shes pretty insane.

and i of course listen to u every. single. day.

ruels pov

what she listens to me? how the friccc am i menat to respond to that? maybe she is tryna use me? shw doesnt seem like that sorta-

ruel. bro. im kidding.

i was starting to get nervous there. the thing is doing what i do there is always that need to ask bc i dont wanna get played or used. which has happened. many. many times before.

yeh im sorry. thought it would be funny. it actually took me a while to recognise u bc i know of u but dont actually know u.

anywayyyyy. tell me about ur family.

well theres me, the flight attendants daughter n mum n josh my older brother. my dad left the picture when i was younger so yeh. how about u mr. wait whats ur last name.

van dijk.

mr van dijk. hows ur family?

they're annoying. we've got mum, kate n dad, ralph. then sylvie n coco. then my favourite, wilbur.

wilbur? why is wilbur ur favourite.

bc he cant answer back or yell at me or tell me to clean this or do that. he just wants belly rubs.

aww i want a pet. so if u dont mind me asking, have any friends?

only one. n shes pretty annoying n idk why we are friends.

oh. n who would that be?

her names ashley u've probably never heard of her. she looks nice but rlly she is a devil.

who said we were friends? i dont know whether to be honoured or offended.

nah but for reals, i hang w this one group of friends n they are all pretty nice. but its nice to have u around bc im pretty bored of doing the same stuff over n over n over again. so miss ashley why did u move?

we went on for hours talking n talking while swimming in the cold ocean. it was nice to know i at least have someone that knows me or wants to be my friend.

oh shit its 2 pm. i gotta head out i've got a studio session at 3. nate will be rage if im late again.

thank you so much for showing me around.

we walked back to our stuff n i grabbed his phone n put my number in.

text me normally if u wanna talk. ceebs going on insta n constantly being reminded that people like u more than me

oh you'll learn to live with the fear that u will never be famous.

we both say sarcastically (i had to say that bc some ppl dont get sarcasm n it drives me insane. like how else are u meant to communicate w ppl). i collected my stuff n walked home. 

bye mr van dick. i mean dijk. whoops.

cyas later
