“And then,” she adds, again with a big smile on her face, “We could come back here and just….see what happens.”

“Who talks like that?” I laugh.

“Oh, shut up,” she replies as she presses her soft lips against mine. I moan into the kiss right away because it feels incredible. It always does. I would never get bored kissing Ashley. Never.

“Mmmm, ok, let’s save some for later,” I smirk as I pull away from her. The kiss was getting very heated and we had reservations. Sure, they weren’t until later, but I had to get ready. I looked like crap. Even since I got out of school, I haven’t really paid attention to what I look like. I didn’t care. Ashley hasn’t said anything, but I mean, there were days when I didn’t even get dressed. I haven’t been very active lately either. Just…lying around.

“Why not now?” She ponders as she attempts another kiss.

“Because, I have to go get ready. You don’t want me going there looking like this do you?”

“You look beautiful.”

I roll my eyes. “Ash, stop.”

I don’t know why I said that. Maybe it was because I couldn’t understand how she could possibly find me attractive like this. I looked a mess. My hair was a mess, I had no make up, and I was in my PJ’s for crying out loud. I’m sure there are bags under my eyes; I didn’t get much sleep last night.

“What?”

“I look yucky,” I let her know as I search through my closet for something nice to wear.

“I think you look beautiful,” she responds as she gently pushed a strand of hair away from my face. She places her hand under my chin and lifts my head up. I can’t help but smile, of course. She’s making me blush. “You’re cute,” she comments when she notices her effect.

She wraps her arms around me and I settle into them. Being that close to her was wonderful. I needed that. I craved that. There was nothing better then being in her arms. “You’re too good to me,” I mumble.

“Can I join you in the shower?” she questions out of nowhere.
