Megan's POV"Thank you, Ashton, but you don't need to do that. I can take care of myself." I said as he walked me out from the cafeteria while Oscar and Alice are walking behind us."Oh, by running away from them? Megan, they can't just do something like that to you. And please, tell me next time if they will bother you again. I know Lauren was harassing you lately, and it was because of me. And I am sorry, Meg, I wasn't there to protect you during those times. But I am telling you, I will make them pay for what they have done to you." Ashton declared, and I felt so guilty that after Lauren tore my literature assignment this morning, I planned on pushing him away."Ashton, you must understand that I should remain silent because I am not like you," I replied."What do you mean by that, Megan?" He asked me, and he stopped in his tracks, and he faced me. And I can see the concern written all over his face."Lauren belonged to your society, she is beautiful and rich, and I am aware her da
Ashton's POVI hate that Megan lost her self-confidence because she thought she doesn't have the right to fight back with Lauren and her friends. After all, she doesn't belong to our society. But even if Megan is not the daughter of a millionaire or billionaire, Meg has a right to be treated equally by those girls, and I hate that they do this to her. Megan is intelligent and a bright student, but she was so afraid of them because she thought he is just a scholar of our school. And I can tell that my girl is so afraid to lose her scholarship if she talks back with them or tells them to back off. I already speak with Lauren, and I couldn't believe that she will do this to Megan again.I know one of the sponsors of the scholarship in our Academy is Lauren's parents, and of course, my parents too, and many more from our society. And I can tell that is also one of the reasons why she doesn't want to date me because I am Gregory Pritzgold's son. And it is known to everyone that my family o
Megan's POVI can't deny that I feel so happy that Ashton was sitting beside me during my first period in the afternoon. And I wonder why he changed his schedule, and I hate myself for thinking that it was all because of me. And I felt so happy that I am wearing his varsity jacket right now. And never in my wildest dream did I imagine myself having this moment because it would be impossible to be with him. But the way Ashton stared at me the entire time during our teacher's discussion, I couldn't stop myself from feeling so overwhelmed with happiness, but I know this feeling that I have with him comes with a price. And I am sure those girls who were looking daggers at me will come to me later. I know no matter how Ashton wanted to protect me, they are still going to hurt me.Ashton sends me to my next class, and I can tell the girls are still flirting with him by calling his name even if we are holding hands while walking in the hallway. Alice was still walking behind us no matter how
Megan's POVThe tiredness that I felt was gone the moment I saw Ashton's beautiful smile that always makes my heart melt, and I can't control the rapid beating of my heart as he walked closer to me. As usual, he looked so adorable and handsome, and even until now, I still can't believe he became interested in me. Ashton strides towards me with confidence. He was wearing cargo shorts and a plain gray t-shirt. Even if he was wearing simple clothes, he still looked like a hot celebrity that I couldn't stop myself from gaping at his handsome face. His beautiful smile broadened when he caught me staring at his lips, and I can feel my face flushed, and I felt shy thinking he realized I was hoping he would kiss me again.He never kisses me again, and how I wish I didn't run away from him that night. But I was shocked that time since we are still strangers to each other, unlike now that we talk each other lately."Hey!" He greeted me the moment we faced each other, and I can feel the tremblin
Megan's POV"Are you alright, Megan?" Zach asked as he drove me home, and I want to see Ashton. Still, I felt shy to tell Zach about it, since he was also one of the rich kids and one of the best football players in our school, but among the players, he was the most friendly since I had heard him say hi to me many times before Ashton showed interest to date me."Yeah, I am just worried about him, and I hope that he was fine," I said as I look outside the window, and I realized I promised to spend time with him after my work today. But I couldn't believe he had a minor injury, and I think it was a sign that Ashton is not the guy for me. Still, as I think about it, I can't stop myself from feeling sad because deep in my heart, I know I was looking forward to our date, and I hated myself that I was trying hard to get, but I can't blame myself. I am just afraid if I will get hurt if I get involved with him."Do you want to come with me and see him?" Zach asked, and I get confused since I
Ashton's POV"Are you alright, Pritzgold?" Coach Davis yelled at me after I stumbled on the ground hard after passing the ball to the wide receiver of our team, and I wonder why there is a big stone on the playground that we overlooked. I sprain my ankle, and it swelled immediately, and I find it hard to move. Coach has no choice but to allow me to be out from practice and asked Zachary to take me home. He advised me to put some ice on it and elevate my ankle. "Are you okay?" Zach asked the moment he gets inside the driver's seat of my car after he helped me settled on my seat."No, I am not okay because I can't pick up Megan. I hate that this is happening to me right now when I have my chance to be with Meg because this is the only time she allowed me to take her on a date because of her busy schedule." I replied, and I saw Zach shaking his head."What?" I asked why he shook his head."I was asking about your ankle and not how you feel in your heart." He said as he drove away from t
Megan's POVI can't deny I felt so worried about Ashton and his injury, and the moment I saw him on his bed, I thank the heavens that he was all right. I know he can't walk properly because of his ankle sprain, but at least he doesn't have any brain injury because that can be very scary. I never imagined in my entire life that I will be able to get inside Ashton's room. And everything is still like a dream to me, and I couldn't believe I have the chance to visit their mansion.We have been cleaning mansions every time aunt Sonia included us on her lists to be part of the cleaning ladies, and I couldn't believe there is this kind of house. I am aware that Ashton has three siblings, two brothers and one sister, and if I am going to count, they are six in the family, including his parents. And this house is so huge, and I wonder why there are people who live in this kind of house.And then I realize they have a lot of money, so they don't care how many empty rooms they have. And I can te
Megan's POVI was smiling from ear to ear the moment we left their mansion, and I still couldn't believe that Ashton is now my boyfriend. I felt so happy, and I felt like I am floating in the air, and it feels like I am on cloud nine at the moment. And while Lennon is driving the car, Ashton held my hand, and he squeezed it, and he looks at me sideways, and his sweet smile warms my heart. Then he put his arm around my shoulders, and he brings me closer to him until my head is on his chest, and it feels so wonderful.For the first time, I realized it is so amazing to have a boyfriend. And being with his brothers made it more exciting and fun. Alice was right when she told me being in love is something that feels so great that you couldn't find the perfect words to describe it. I felt scared when I realized what I thought. I am falling for Ashton Pritzgold, and I know the price I have to pay to be with him, but I tried to ignore the bad feeling that I am starting to feel, and I try to f
