Chapter 7 "Not interested in Men, Sorry"

Amara's pov

"Are you Miss Rivers? Mr. Parker is waiting for you in his room." The guy in the butler attire spoke with his expression less face. It's not his fault that I got the wrong idea about his words. It's my perverted mind that is thinking pervertedly. What do you mean by he's waiting for me in his room? It's for a talk............... Right?! Yeah it should be.

"I will go talk to him you wait here. OK." Ashton said but when he was about to get up from his seat we heard that handsome butler speaking again. 

"Mr. Parker asked for Miss. Amara Rivers alone sir!" OK........ But I'm not in a position to talk with him right now. I'm nervous. 

"She can't! I will talk with him on her behalf" Ashton spoke sensing my uncertainty of meeting him.

"Then I need to ask Mr. Parker sir!" the pale looking guy went to the direction where I assume his room is located. Why do I need to go to his bedroom for a talk? Does he want to talk privately? Or he wanted to tease me again with his cocky attitude?

"Sir! You can go, I will show you the way." the handsome dude said and Ashton  followed. Guess what happened next?..............................................................I'm alone in the huge living room all by myself. 

After a few minutes that handsome butler joined me being my partner in being mute. I mean you know, he doesn't talk I can understand but what I think weird about him is, he didn't smile like those other butler's whom I saw in the movies. And it's kinda awkward with him standing right behind me while I sat uncomfortably on the couch.

OK Amara he will not bite you. Talk to him. I need to.... It's an emergency.

"Umm........excuse me? Can you please tell me where the washroom is?" I need to pee as fast I could, damn............ It's all my fault why did I even let nervousness to take over me?

"Let me guide you miss!" he said with a nod and took a few steps but soon stopped in his tracks when I called him with a name, I wish I didn't do that. I want to take it back........ My stupid mouth. Why did I even address him as

 "MR. BUTLER!" he looked shocked and kind of irritated I guess.

"It's Derek Frost, call me Derek. It's enough." he clarified as to what should I address him as and I feel guilty did I disrespect him in any way. Shi*. But Frost suits him though. He's like a frozen man with no empty emotions on his face. 

"You don't need to come along with me Derek, just tell me the directions, I can go by myself." I don't want a man to guide me to the washroom and wait for me till I come out, what if I accidentally make some weird sounds. Hey! It's natural everyone does that but no one says it loud. It's kinda awkward that way if he hears.

"Straight and left." he pointed the way where I need to go after nodding. And I'm sure he must have laughed seeing me hurrying towards the washroom.

Author's pov (when Derek left Ashton in Aiden's room)

Even though Ashton thought of talking to him in a polite and friendly manner his emotions kicked in. How can a man let a girl drink beyond her limits unless if you want to take advantage of her drunken state.

He remembered Amara's words, she said he offered her a drink when she was about to pass out. If you're a gentleman you will ask her to stop drinking and drop her home. But instead the man infront of him who looked like he was younger than him offered Amara an alcoholic drink even though he knows she was about to pass out. And he even brought her to his home and who knows he tried something with her that night without her knowledge?

And that's when Ashton stomped towards Aiden like a grim reaper who wanted to take away his soul. Aiden got shook when he got pushed by the short guy. Thank God he stood right next to bed and he fell right on the bed as he didn't expect that shorty to be that strong.

"Are you even a man?" Ashton yelled at the man as he stood hovering over Aiden's figure lying on the bed. Aiden thought of dealing the matter without bringing his usual self but he wasn't so impressed by the shorty's actions. Aiden laid on the bed turning to his side and propped his head up before replying him.

"I can prove right now that I'm a man! I know that's what you want by pushing me on the bed. But I'm not interested in men sorry!"

"Ewww! what the hell?" Ash distanced himself from the cocky man as felt disgusted by his comment.

"I think it's my dialogue to say! What the hell!?" he said pointing to himself on from top to bottom with why-did- you- push -me? look.

"Then what!? Making a girl to drink so much that she could get drunk is what a man does? You let her drink nearly 20 to 30 shots! What did you do to her Huh?" Ashton yelled. Aiden just rolled his eyes and sat crossing his legs.

"Do you think that girl! Has a capacity to drink that much. No dude! She just got drunk by two shots. All the other shot she drank were non alcoholic beverages. I'm not telling you to prove myself that I'm a man. I'm just telling this to you not to come into conclusions." 

Ashton just let out a "Oh.... " by the cocky man's confession but still he must have contacted her family rather than bringing her to his home. Ashton's thoughts were interrupted by Aiden's words.

"And I know what you are thinking, tell me what will her family think if I say "Hello, your daughter just passed out in the bar she drank too much come and take her away!" and also I don't know her address unless she says it by herself but she's not in a position to even say her name. So that's why I brought her to my home.. Is it clear for you now Mr....? "

" Ashton" Ash completed his sentence.

"I'm sorry! It's a misunderstanding." Ashton said in a low voice feeling guilty.

"And can I know who you're? And why do you want to talk with me instead of Amara?" Aiden asked raising his brow as he stood up from his bed hovering over the short figure of Ashton. He did nothing, it's just that Ashton is shorter than him............ a lot.

"Oh I'm sorry, I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Ashton Ryder. Best friend of Amara!" Ashton similed as he stretched his hand for a handshake which Aiden gladly accepted. "I'm sorry I've used your name somewhere and you -"

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" both Ash and Aiden looked at each other and they ran out after Ash let out Amara's name "Amara?"

They went to the living room following the sound of Amara's scream. It's sounded like she is trying to audition for Tarzan's role.

"Where is your butler? What is he doing?" Ashton asked while running but Aiden immediately stopped in his tracks and looked at him confused.

"I don't have a butler in my house!" Aiden clarified and they both started running again.

"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?" Ashton yelled at him and he saw Amara on the floor looking at the butler who stood hovering over her.

"what is happening here?" Aiden and Ash both said at the same time and Derek looked at them with his usual expression less face and Amara stood up from the floor and turned to them giving them an awkward smile while waving her hand and an awkward HI! left her lips.
