Dive Into Love Chapter 13 - But I Still Want You!
Bella maintained a stern face and for milli second looked at the glass wall. And there Ashton was hugging a girl with a big smile on his face. And she regreted instantly, looking at the glass wall, looking at him wasn't a good idea. And her broken heart broke once again if that was even possible. " How can I trust you Ashton when your words and actions are so freaking contrary, how?" was all Bella thought. The girl was smiling while looking at Ashton to which he flashed his bright smile beaming with happiness and Bella felt a pang of jealousy. Bella wanted to go in his cabin and pull that girl and Ashton apart from their didn't seem to end hug. Her breathing was getting raged in anger. Here a moment ago he dropped a note apologising for the crap he said to Peter and was asking her to trust him, believe him. And now he was smiling like a maniac and wasn't stopping that girl. Hell she was getting too clinging, couldn't he see that. If glares could burn then this girl would have turne
Dive Into Love Chapter 14 - The Pep Talk!
" Cheers everyone, enjoy the party." everyone yelled cheers as Ashton announced the beginning of party. Everyone was having fun in their own ways. Some were drinking, some were dancing, others were gawking at food. But Ashton didn't bother to pay attention to any of them. His eyes just remained at the entrance all the time no matter if he was indulged in an conversation with someone or alone. But he didn't look away from at entrance. His eyes glued there. He was just waiting for that one person to come for whom he had kept this party. Well not only for her. But certainly she was the most awaited guest for him. Though all the people present here in the party thought it was because Ashton had become the new CEO. And that was kind of true. But he knew what it was more of a reason for this party other then him being the CEO. It WAS as if an excuse to meet Bella for him. He hadn't decided on throwing a party at all until he saw her in that conference hall. Ashton was still looking at
Dive Into Love Chapter 15 - May I Have This Dance?
Peter dragged Jacob with him no matter how much Bella tired to protest as Jacob too tried to decline but to no avail, Jacob gave Bella a puppy look wanting her to stop Peter but she only chuckled at his cute expression looking at him helplessly. " Bella, would you mind dancing with me? " and Bella's jaw dropped as Ashton forwarded his hand. Bella stared at Ashton with open mouth and shocked eyes but Ashton's constant intent gaze pulled her out of her thoughts. She cleared her throat and tried to fetch some words from his mind that was currently filled with jumbled thoughts. She grabbed a glass of cold drink from the waiter who was passing by her trying to clear her mind and to buy sometime as she was still thinking how to answer or to be specific how to deny his request. " Sorry Sir but I will have to decline." and with that Bella took a sip of her cold drink keeping her casual act." Why....??" it was all that rolled out of his tongue. " Yes Sir, it won't be nice to dance with so
Dive Into Love Chapter 16 - IF I Say, Will You Stay?
It had been ten minutes since Bella had gone from the dance floor but Ashton was still standing there, rooted at his place, thinking what had happened just now. He couldn't figure out weather to be happy or to be sad cause for obvious reasons. It was just magical, their dance was magical for Ashton. Bella was in his arms and the whole surrounding was blurred. His eyes couldn't see anything or anyone except Bella. She was looking so enchanting in dim blue lights. If Ashton could wish for anything, he would have wished for this moment to never end and to last forever. In the beginning of the dance she had that cold wall around her and she wasn't looking at Ashton instead was struggling to keep a little distance between them. But he didn't let that gap come. He held her close to her. Slowly and slowly she let her guard down and he felt her warmth in her smile, in her hold. She wasn't resisting anymore and Ashton was beyond happy about it. Everything felt so perfect. She was looking so
Dive Into Love Chapter 17 - Drunk Call At 3AM
" Ahhh " Ashton clutched his head as he felt throbbing pain in his head. It was like someone was hammering it mercilessly. Granted, it was him who decided to drink to the point he wasn't even able to stand up.Ashton ran his hand near his bed side table in an attempt to find water. God this alcohol. Earlier his alcohol tolerance was commendable, he didn't use to get drunk so easily and such hangovers were rare but since the day Bella had told him to quit drinking, he didn't touch alcohol since that day until yesterday. Even if that was hard and his body used to shiver urging for alcohol. He didn't know why it was that he lost control and got drunk. Maybe because he couldn't stand the fact that after their dance she would just go with caveman-- he meant Jacob. Or maybe he just wanted to see if she would care if he got drunk. If that would matter to her. When Bella didn't say a word and left him there. At that time Ashton felt like she chose Jacob over him. Ahhhh, this hangover. His e

The drive was silent or rather awkward as no one them said a word. It felt like the heavy quietness had engulfed their surrounding but there was a strom going on in their hearts. Both wanted to say so much but the words died before rolling out of their lips. Ashton was cussing at himself for everything and anything while Bella really wanted to know why Ashton was so late, earlier she was worried but now she was curious.But she killed her curiosity.And he murdered his thoughts.During whole car ride Ashton kept his eyes fixed at front and Bella stared blankly outside at the passing trees as if the trees were something so fascinating. The car stopped with a jerk when they reached their destination. Bella looked at the restaurant being awestruck. Of course riches were on another level. The exterior was so extravagant that Bella wonder how was interior going to be? And heck if she was going to be disappointed.The restaurant from the inside was equally appealing and fantastic. Wide hall

And it wasn't like Bella had any other option because Ashton had drove her here so she didn't have a ride to go back home so she followed him nonetheless.Although she could have gotten a taxi to get back home but firstly it would look kind of rude to do so and if it would have been any other day honestly then she wouldn't have cared to stomp over Ashton's feelings but right now at the moment she knew something was bothering him, she knew something made him that anxious and upset so she decided to not to be so cruel for once and quietly follow him.

Dive Into Love Chapter 39 - Old Scars Don't Heal Easy
Bella felt like someone had splashed her with ice cold water. As if someone had swept the ground from her feet, and she was falling to a never-ending tunnel. She couldn't believe what Ashton just told her would be an understatement. She was beyond shocked to the point that words certainly couldn't explain what she was feeling right now. And even though she had been trying to run away from him, hide from him all this time. Because she never wanted him back in her life. But now that she heard that he might marry some other girl, she felt like the man was slipping away from her. Going away from her life. And that's what she wanted all along. But now that it seemed to be coming true, she didn't like it? “So will you marry her?” Bella didn’t know why her heart was thudding loudly, ready to jump out its ribcage.

Dive Into Love Chapter - 38 Love Is A Luxury
"Shouldn't you be having breakfast right now? What are you doing here? Did you miss me so much that you followed me here? Awww! Bella, I didn't know you were this clingy." Ashton uttered while giving Bella a teasing smirk which did nothing except making her want to face-palm herself. This boy was seriously impossible."I shouldn't have bothered. I don't even know, why did I even ask!" Bella grunted and turned around in disbelief, ready to go back inside.Here she was so worried about him that she couldn't even swallow another bite of her sandwich and eventually gave up at pretending to be fine with Ashton leaving the table while fuming. But now the boy was cracking jokes. For god's sake what was wrong with him.Bella knew him well enough to know that he didn't like showing his emotions in front of others especially when something is hurting him rather, he would throw and break stuff like a little kid with tantrums. Either he would keep a poker face all the time or his veins would be p
Dive Into Love Chapter 37 - The Monster Within Him
"Ashton-!! What the hell are you doing?!" Bella shouted as her eyes widened at the sight of Ashton punching the wall vigorously like a mad man and Bella shuddered at it. She couldn't believe at what her eyes were witness. It was if the old Ashton was back. That monster Ashton.Surely Ashton was still an arrogant, narcissistic bastard who didn't give a fuck about others but she couldn't remember the last time when she had she seen the MONSTER ASHTON, the real monster fueling with rage and burning down everything coming his way. The monster Ashton who loved shattering things when in pain."Ashton- ASHTON!! ASHTON STOP IT." Bella could care less about staying away and avoiding Ashton at the moment as her feet marched towards own their own accord. Running quickly, she held his hand to stop him from hitting the wall anymore."Let go you fuck-..." Ashton yelled but his words died down in his throat when he saw who had dared to grab his hand. Of course, it couldn't have been anyone else but
Dive Into Love Chapter 36 - Life, Unfortunately!
Never in her life Bella had ever been this scared to eat breakfast with others. In fact, the chirpy girl she is, she had always enjoyed sitting together with her friends and family to eat with them and talk about anything and everything during that time which all of them spend together. But right now, to say she was terrified to even step out of her room was an understatement.Because she was embarrassed to death, she couldn't believe that she was drunk to the point that she was ready to lose herself in the electric current she felt with her body close to his. And the worst part, she was the one to initiate the physical intimacy and ironically Ashton was the one sane one to not take advantage of her intoxicated state. She had never felt this ashamed.Sure she liked how their bodies molded as one, how his lips felt on hers, how his strong arms wrapped around her into a warm embrace filling her up with a sense of security and maybe care, love? But that wasn't the point. The whole scenar
Dive Into Love Chapter 35 - Past Under New Light
The most hardest thing for Bella was going to be to face Ashton after what blunder she had done. Regardless of her being drunk yesterday night or not. She still didn't know how to confront the man and what for.Like what could she possibly say. Her mind had short circuited and she couldn't think of any justifiable or at least convincing statement for her actions. For fuck's sake she couldn't comprehend it herself."We should forget it. Whatever happened yesterday. I mean you were drunk so were I. It was a mistake. Let's get past it, after all its a new day. New beginning. So, let's be cool about it and pretend like it never happened and be merry." Bella was trying to come up with a speech as she dried her hair with the blow dryer."Look, I am sorry Ashton. I was too wasted yesterday, I wasn't in my senses. What happened shouldn't have happened, frigging shit I shouldn't have come to your room to begin with. I just want to apologize for that. Can we go back to we were before that?" yea
Dive Into Love Chapter 34 - Because I Love You!
"Ahh, my head feels like it will come burst." Bella was groaning as her head throbbed. It felt like someone was hammering nails in her head with no mercy. She was twisting and turning in bed to hide her face from the blaring sunlight which was piercing through the window but she felt as if she was encaged, a weight around her waist. And damn, the pillow was so uncomfortable. Aren't pillows supposed to be fluffy and soft, why this one was rock hard?The more Bella tried to stir in her sleep the more she felt like she was being pulled. Pulled towards something or someone, closer and closer. She felt a ticklish sensation as if someone was breathing close to her face and she started to freak out when she heard faint snores. It had her eyes open in an instant like cold water was thrown at her. Well, the situation in front of her surely gave her chills and her blood ran cold. She was all snuggled up to Ashton."Shoot! Why the hell am I freaking cuddling with Ashton. Heck, What have you don
Dive Into Love Chapter 33 - Never Have I Ever Gone Hot
"So who's going to start?" Bella slurred while her doe eyes stared at the person sitting right next to her with anticipation so how could Ashton could have denied when she seemed so hopeful and moreover when this time she was the one taking the initiative."Ermm.. I don't mind you can start." a smile adorned his face when Bella clasped her hands together in delight it sure was infectious because Ashton couldn't stop but mirror her excitement."Okay let me think." Bella cutely pursed her lips while tapping her finger under her chin in an attempt to rile her brain to come up with something cool and fascinating unaware of the fact that Ashton was already admiring her with the game being the last thing on his mind right now. All he could see at the moment was her it was as if everything else was blurred and sure enough drunk Bella had her own charm that held him captive."Never have I ever pole danced." Bella chided while looking at Ashton as her eyes blew wild when he took a sip from the
Dive Into Love Chapter 32 - Because I Am Drunk
Ashton for sure was planning to get drunk and totally wasted because too many things were going on in his life for him to stay calm. Feeling always at the edge he felt like this party was his perfect chance to forget about how much of a fucked up he was. Well it was just a plan but that was until his father decided to call him, it just made his plan into something not out of choice but something he just had to do. Going back to where their barbecue was set up, Ashton picked up a whisky bottle from there again and took a swig. A groan escaped his lips at the sensation of whisky going down while burning his throat along the way. He wanted to enjoy this moment but there he was sitting at a corner with nothing except gloominess."How about some drink games?" Jenny suggested with a grin."Yeah there can't be any party without games." Kimberly joined in the agreement with enthusiasm while Sam too nodded in agreement and because Bella had enough of being copped up in her shell, she was ready
Dive Into Love Chapter 31 - Brave & Wild!!
Tiny sand particles tickling his feet a little and leaving a cooling sensation, it felt good. He looked at his left where sat a bottle of whiskey which he picked up before ditching the so called party, the very bottle that he was so intrigued to mash someone's head with ahem - Sam. Well whiskey was more valuable. So instead he decided to make a better use of it which was looking at the waves crashing at a distance he brought the bottle to his lips and chugged it down while enjoying the view. Indeed a better use if not the best. Sure the things were going haywire but maybe he could let be for tomorrow and just listen to heart beating rhythmically with once waves. Even if just for a little moment, his heart felt at ease."What are you doing here?" Ashton turned his neck so fast at the familiar voice that he was sure it would have strained while he stared at the person standing in front of him with an array of emotions. "Nothing just..." he let his words float in the air without any cl
