Ashley POV

The atmosphere became eerily quiet as the two of us ate. Though it was awkward at first, seeing how our conversation ended. The atmosphere quickly came back to normal. Before long, we called for the waiter to take our plates and get us drinks. Jayden went to the restroom while the young waiter collected the plates and cutlery. I made small talk with him before he left and he returned.

"So," he began as he flopped onto the couch. "The best of three?"

I nodded nervously. "We'll pick our own song."

"High score or level system?"

"Level system," I said. "It's easier to keep track that way."

"Well, ladies first," he urged me, moving his healthy hand toward the screen at the far end of the room.

    Ashley POVJayden kept quiet as we made our way back to the front desk, putting on his coat and walking down the corridor that connected all the rooms to the emergency staircase or the two available elevators. He hooked the mask straps to his ears inside the mirrored elevator. I sneaked a glance at him through the mirror as he adjusted his beanie, and was startled by a pair of familiar caramel brown eyes staring back at me.But those caramel brown eyes were colder than the glacier on the mountains in winter.David was already outside by the time we finished returning the room key, which was fortunate considering the number of visitors to Sing-All. I hadn't realized that more than an hour had passed, but my phone screen showed that it was already half past ten in the evening, which meant that there would be a lot of people crowding the singing venue in the near future. Among the people who could afford a membership, there would definitely be at least one pair of eyes that would recogni

    Ashley POVFor a moment, I almost thought I had expressed my despair, but was relieved that my throat was too dry to speak. Even so, it didn't really matter. I could feel our relationship was at a crossroads, in the elevator lobby outside my parents' apartment. Right then and there, I would decide how the next three months would go. I had to do the right thing. It was best for me and him.I swallowed hard. "You already have a girlfriend, Jayden," I told him for the hundredth time, leaning against the front door of my parents' apartment. "As soon as you recover from your amnesiac, you will remember how much you loved her, how much she meant to you.""You mean a lot to me too, Ashley."I smiled grimly. "We grew up together, J," I said. "I'm an old acquaintance of yours, so your feelings aren't surprising. Despite..."I trailed off as I saw hope blazing in those caramel brown eyes of his. The tears stung my eyes and my throat seemed to clench in on itself, but I forced them out and clear

    Ashley POVIf it wasn't for his quick reflexes, my face would've been smashed into the concrete floor, or, if I was lucky, I could've crawled away and only suffered a few bruises instead of a broken nose. Luckily, Jayden rushed to catch me, and I found my face buried in the fabric of his coat, my hands clinging to his shoulders and arms as I struggled to regain my balance. He didn't even budge from where he stood, supporting me, and giving me an amused smile as I looked at him gratefully, before turning his attention to something... or rather someone, behind me."Uncle Smith," Jayden greeted politely as he nodded his head in respect.Soon, I broke away from him and walked quickly. My Dad seemed to be standing in front of the apartment door with his coat slung over his shoulders carelessly, with his shoes untied. Judging from the food box he was holding,

    Ashley POVIt really felt like she had punched a hole in my chest. I dropped the glass of water I was holding, which was thankfully only an inch above the surface of the kitchen overhang, leaving only a slight splash of water coming out, and felt my jaw slacken.My eyes stared at her in utter disbelief. "You can't be serious," I managed to say. "This has to be a joke, right?"She looked away. So did my dad when I tried to catch his attention."Why?" I asked, my voice only sounding like a whisper. "How?""It's a long story," Dad finally said quietly, slumping down onto a barstool that was two stools away from me. "And sits so close to my heart and my past.""I think I have the right to know that story down to the smalle

    Ashley POVI frowned, even as I felt a cold hand grip around my core as the realization slowly seeped into my mind like thick, viscous honey. Only if that honey was rotten and bitter like coal and ash."What does that mean?" I asked, my voice trembling slightly.Dad scratched the back of his head, letting Mom take over. "What he's trying to say," she told me firmly, "is that there's no way we can change the terms of your grandfather's will. 'As it is written, so shall it be established'. So our family must still be united by blood, no matter what we will do to keep our Red Moon Pack.""That means...?""Sweetie," Dad started, giving a sympathetic smile.

    Ashley POV"You're engaged?"As if I had punched the air out of him, his eyes shot open in shock. I had never seen his face turn so pale so quickly. I just blinked my eyes and suddenly, his face was as white as the wall behind him."And of all the men in this world," he continued, his voice trembling, "you're engaged to my brother?"Spontaneously, I took a step forward, an excuse that made sense and sounded honest, or maybe even the truth itself eager to escape my lips. "Jay..."I had just started when his face hardened into stone and he broke away from my gaze, which caused my words to get stuck in my throat. "I-I didn't know," he mumbled. "Uncle, Auntie, Ash..." His voice broke and he quickly cleared his throat. "...if you would just excuse me..."Without further explanation, Jayden hurried down the hallway in an instant. I heard the bathroom door lock behind him... just as I listened to the shards of my broken heart trying to merge into a single entity inside my rib cage. Just as t

  • My Cheating Amnesic Idol Mate   Chapter 54 : The Truth Untold

    Ashley POVI swallowed hard, and a shudder spread all over my system as I recalled the horrible pain in the pit of my stomach when Clark had called to tell me about Jayden's accident. If that idiot had died that night, I would never have forgiven myself, partly because I felt a little responsible for making him as angry as I felt. Knowing him, I should have been more careful, but then again, I was the angriest person ever in my entire life. And to make matters worse, I could not even tell him the real reason for his accident.But I doubt if I could have lived with myself had he died. Surely that would have shattered me."I've been lying awake thinking about my past every night," he continued, the frown on his forehead indicating that he had noticed my concern. "Partly because of the amnesia, because I want to know how much I can remember... but mostly because of you."I would have thought that he was being sarcastic if not for the look in his eyes. It was a look of solemnity and of ho

    Ashley POV"What is it you're trying to say?" I asked slowly, briefly wondering if this was all a dream. If Jayden crouching before me was just a shadow of my imagination, and that everything about my engagement, be it with him or with his brother, everything about his accident and amnesia was just an imagination. Maybe I would wake up soon and realize that I was twelve again and the only problems in my world were whether my grandpa or grandma who would cook for me that evening, whether my parents would be okay on their flight to Rome, and whether Eva would stop trying to convince me that Harry Styles would win her heart in five years, and I just needed to watch and learn from her about how to charm pop idol stars. The latter was ironic considering my current dream, but it had come true nonetheless.The moment I felt the warmth of his fingers, met the warmth of caramel brown eyes on a face that used to have a nose that was too big and smelled the fresh scent of soap, white musk, and

    Jayden POV23.02 - Fine, I'll go get your stuff. See you in five minutes?23.02 - Perfect! Hey, baby, you're not mad at me, right?Rolling my eyes, I replied with the word “No”. To be frank, I'm not mad at her. I'm just tired of her. Blair was prettier than most, very talented, and kind despite being more of a loner than Jean and overall she was a very nice girl. She is the kind of girl that guys dream about, because of her sweet and lovable nature, her graceful and slender figure. In fact, she was exactly what I wanted when I first laid eyes on her. I used to think I could finally fall in love, and it would be with her because she's almost perfect in every way. I mean, how could a guy not like a woman like Blair?At first, it was fun and exciting. I had never had someone... someone who I knew was definitely interested in me and talked to me for twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. She made me break down my walls, to the point where I felt I could trust her. I thought I could

    Jayden POV—Flashback a few hours before the accident after the concert in NY in February—“Good job, everyone! That's a wrap for our concert in NY!”Clark escorted the seven of us from backstage to one of the leather couches in the dressing room before darting off somewhere. Some of the other coordinators and managers who had been with us for a few months to a few years came next, all with smiles on their faces. I poured the last contents of my water bottle over my head to cool down as I sat next to Jax. The liquid dripped down my face, neck, and back, soaking the black T-shirt I wore at the end of the concert, and though it felt relatively warm, I was still able to breathe a sigh of relief.“There's a place called the bathroom.” Tyler leaned over to my right and tugged gently on my sleeve. “Man, you're soaked.”“You too,” I retorted as I stared intently at his hair stuck to his forehead.“I'm starving,” whimpered Jean as he fanned himself frantically with someone's magazine. He plop

    Ashley POVJayden was checking himself out in the massive mirror, eyes trailing from head to toe. His dyed light brown hair was a mess, and he had just enough makeup on to cover the small scar on his left cheek. Titanium earrings dangled from his ears, and rings wrapped around his fingers. He wore a red bomber jacket over a teal patterned shirt, paired with tight— very tight— black skinny jeans and branded sneakers to complete the look.“Hey,” he greeted, locking eyes with me through the mirror.I pushed a rolling clothing rack filled with expensive-looking shirts and jackets. “No white tees? What’s going on?” I asked.Jayden let out a small laugh. “Sorry to disappoint,” he replied, adjusting his collar. “Anyway, where have you been? I’ve been looking everywhere for you.”“I was at the mall,” I lied, trying my hardest not to rub my wrist. “I’m actually feeling kinda sick. I don’t know if I can stay for the whole concert.”He immediately turned to me. “You have to,” he said, a hint of

    Ashley POVChugging his water bottle, Jayden turned his attention back to his friends. Miles, however, kept sneaking glances at me, his expression unreadable. I gave him a small smile anyway, hoping to reassure him that I was fine.A lie, of course. I was fine. I just had no idea how.“Are you and Miles having a thing or...?”My jaw practically hit the floor, and I gawked at Blair in disbelief. “What?” I blurted, unable to hide my shock. “Of course not!”She tapped a finger against her chin, flashing me an apologetic smile. “Sorry, that was kind of fishy.” She came closer, the scent of her strawberry perfume stinging my nose even more. “Come on, we’re friends. You can tell me.”I was this close to telling her that friendship didn’t work that way. Hell, I wanted to punch her square in the jaw. But I managed to hold back and just shook my head. “No, really,” I said, sneakily shifting away from her. “There’s nothing going on between me and him. Or anyone else in this group, for that matt

    Ashley POVAs Clark and I stepped out onto the empty stands on the east side of the arena, the music was blasting.He left me alone when a female staff member hesitantly approached us, wanting to talk to him about something backstage. He apologized for having to leave so suddenly, but I assured him I’d be fine. Honestly, he could’ve walked away without me even noticing.Because there were seven guys dancing in the middle of the brightly lit stage, I couldn't take my eyes off them.Or, more specifically, the one wearing gray sweatpants, a loose white T-shirt, and yellow-branded boots.Jayden Keller.The last time I saw him dance, I was honestly shocked. Not because he was bad— far from it. It was just… before, I’d seen him dance like there was nothing else in the world except the stage, the audience, and the rhythm of the music. When he performed, he became someone entirely different… No, he transformed into something more than just a regular person. His singing and dancing wove togeth

    Ashley POVMonday was chill. I spent the day wandering around the area near my hotel, snapping pictures of the city. Somewhere along the way, I stumbled upon a hobby store packed with all kinds of trinkets and ended up buying some dolls and tiny figurines for Eva before heading back. I also swung by a small shop to grab some snacks.A hot shower melted away my exhaustion, and soon enough, I was lounging on the bed in a ridiculously oversized bathrobe, binge-watching N*****x for hours. I meant to change into my pajamas, but I crashed before I even got the chance.For a moment, I floated in darkness— no real-life drama, no danger, just peace.Then, a buzzing noise across the room yanked me out of my sleep. Still half-asleep, I clumsily rolled out of bed and made my way to the desk where I'd left my phone charging. My eyes fluttered as I tried to shake off the drowsiness. It was bright outside, but I didn’t really stop to think about it.Not until I, still groggy, picked up the call and h

    Ashley POVIt wasn’t jealousy or some masochistic urge that led me to my newest idea. No, seriously, it wasn’t. Honestly, I just wanted to know more about her, because she was the reason behind everything that happened that night at the stadium back in February. Because I could swear she had planned every single one of those so-called coincidental meetings between me and Jayden, which eventually led to the accident and his amnesia.I mean, I had no solid proof, but judging by the way she acted and spoke… something felt off. My gut just told me so.I didn’t think Blair had planned for Jayden to go on a drunken rampage afterward and get hit by a car— especially judging by how damn annoying she was in the Silvercross Healing Center parking lot— but she sure as hell wasn’t innocent, either. But I also knew she hadn’t known about my engagement to Jayden at the time, which was obvious from Jayden’s own words and what she said to me after he kicked her out of his hospital room.Besides, I st

    Ashley POVThe streets weren’t exactly empty, but David had been circling the block for the past half hour, worried about my safety. That’s why he managed to pull up right where he had dropped me off just a few minutes later. Before getting into the car, still a little tipsy, I waved goodbye to the BHB band members— except for Jayden and Jamie, who were still upstairs looking for something they’d left behind.Even though it felt kinda weird leaving without saying goodbye to everyone, maybe it was for the best that I didn’t see Jayden again. At least, not that night.I had to wipe my eyes more than a few times on the way home. Not even the alcohol could numb the sharp ache in my chest.The moment I got back, I collapsed onto my bed and passed out.The next morning, fighting off a pounding headache, I came to the conclusion that my trip to Milan needed to be about more than just Jayden’s concert. I had to make this trip for myself too. And since Eva was too busy to come along and Jared

    Ashley POVIf my brain wasn’t so clouded with exhaustion and alcohol, I might’ve reacted properly to what he just said. But right now, I was way more drunk than I wanted to admit. I pushed aside every thought fighting for space in my head, whether real or not, because his body heat and the scent of white musk, soap, and just him made something inside me shiver with longing. I didn’t trust myself in this state. I didn’t trust myself when my lips were this close to his neck, where his scent was strongest.So instead, I focused on one thing— holding on."Ash, I have a question."He had already reached the second floor, adjusting his grip on me. I glanced at him, curious, urging him to continue. "Shoot.""I was wondering if you’d come to our show at the end of May," he said quietly as he stepped onto the last staircase. "I know it’s around finals, but..." I felt him swallow hard. "I want you to be there. To see us, to see me... perform."I pretended to think about it for a second, but hon
