Megan's POV"Why do you have to have to punch him, Dexter?" I asked my brother as I cleaned the cut on his face, and then I applied a cold compress around his swollen eyes."I am sorry, Megan. I am not a violent type of person, and you know that, but when Ashton accused me of playing with his sister, I couldn't control myself anymore. How I wish I can tell them the real story behind my actions, but I couldn't do it because of my agreement with their father." My brother said, feeling so defeated while I can't stop thinking about Ashton. I know my brother whacked him too, and how I wish things could be different for all of us."I know the way you look at him, Megan. Even if you are angry with him, I can see the love in your eyes. I can't force you on what to do, but I have been there; loving the Priztgold can do no good to our family. And I could tell Ashton is in love with you too. He will not profess his love for you in front of everyone if he doesn't mean it, Meg. Maybe Isabelle aske
Megan's POV"Megan, I know you are afraid to face our fellow students, especially those who were at Lauren's place that night. But I want to remind you that you have done nothing wrong to them, and Lauren was the reason why you are having a hard time now. Don't be afraid of them, Meg. I will be right beside you, and I guess you also have your friends to back you up. Trust me, okay?" Zach declared, and the truth is I am not afraid to face them as of the moment because I am more fearful of how I am going to meet Ashton."It is easy for you to say, Zach," I said as I let out a soft sigh, and I can tell everyone is waiting for me to come out, and I can tell the girls are now ready to mock me anytime."I know, Meg, but I know that you are strong, and you can face them with your head high. And I want to ask you don't watch on social media." He said, and I turned my head, and I looked at him confused."Why? Well, I don't have time to browse on social media, so you don't need to worry because
Ashton's POV"Ashton, that is not a good idea as of this time; Megan is still angry with you, the more you will force to talk with her, the more she will avoid you, let Zach pick her up, I want to do it, but I need to pick up Sherry," Lennon said after I told him I am going to pick up Megan."Besides, Dexter could be there, and I think you already reach your quota for the week." He added."What quota?" I asked, confused, and my brother laughed at me."Punches requirement for the week, Zach already beat you at Lauren's party, and Dexter gave you another blow on the following night, and I think you should allow your swollen eyes to recover first before you face Megan's brother again. Don't get into trouble, Ashton." He added before he gets inside his car, and I saw our youngest brother running, and I shook my head before I fished out my phone from my pocket, and I called my best friend."Are you bringing your car today?" I asked him right away the moment he answered my call."Yes, and I
Megan's POVOn the following day, I found Zach's car on our driveway once again, and my sister ran towards the car while I am feeling worried about what will happen in school today. Ashton didn't bother me the entire afternoon yesterday after I gave him the note, and I felt relieved, but deep inside me, there is a voice telling me I miss Ashton's company. When we reach the school parking lot, I felt disappointed that I hadn't seen Ashton outside his car waiting for me. I said my thanks to Zach as I made my way to the library, and I can't stop myself from looking at the football field, and I realized they are already started their practice, and I felt guilty for Zachary that he will be late of his training because of me. I was wearing a light yellow mini dress, and I felt comfortable with my dress, but my heart feels so restless. Ashton didn't wait for me, and maybe he realized I am not worth his time. Well, it is better this way because I no longer need to break up with him. I don't
Megan's POVI plan to break up with Ashton, but he didn't come, and I don't know our status now, and we don't have communication, and he didn't even text me, so I guess what we had was over. I am no longer his girlfriend. I was walking lazily, and I know I should not walk at this hour, but I felt like walking even if my pace was slow. I suddenly felt so tired even if I like my new job now since looking at those colorful fishes on the fish tanks made me feel so excited when I look at them swimming around without care of the world."Megan!" I heard someone called my name, and I stopped in my tracks, and when I looked around, I found Anthony's car pulled over beside me, and I can see his handsome face over the opened window of his car."Hey, get in, I have been calling you, and it seems you are really in deep thought." He said, and since I felt so tired, I get inside his car even if our house is just five hundred meters away, and I can tell it is still near."I don't want to pry, but I s
Ashton's POVThe following day I tried to avoid Megan at all costs because I wanted her to know that I respected her, and I followed what she wanted. I was hoping that she still wanted me to be her boyfriend. I was looking at her from a distance, and I wanted to be near her, but knowing that she was still angry with me after what happened at Lauren's party, I had no choice but to follow Zach's advice to give her time to think and to miss me, and I was hoping she will indeed miss me.Wednesday came, and I was very excited about my date with Megan that I got uneasy the entire day until practice, but when my training was over, I got a call from my mom that she needed me at home. And I think it was an emergency, and I didn't have a choice but to go home and plan to go back and pick up Megan at her workplace. I felt so glad that she got a new part-time job again after the incident at the cafe where she previously worked.When I got home, I was shocked to find mom wearing a beautiful one-st
Ashton's POVThe party continued, and I knew Lauren and some of our classmates and friends would be at the party since we belong to the same circle. Still, I avoided them, especially the girls, because I hate what they have done with Megan at Lauren's party, where they laughed and ridiculed her."Hey!" Isabelle approached me, and I smiled at her."Hello, beautiful! You looked so lovely tonight, Isabelle." I said to my sister, looking at her beautiful face. Her long red velvet gown emphasized my sister's hourglass figure that made the boys looked at her full of admiration. And I am aware my sister's alluring beauty could capture anyone's heart, and I wonder why she needs to fall in love with Megan's brother."Thank you, brother, and you looked dashing too; that is why girls are looking at you most of the time. Even older women have to take a second glance." She declared, and I laughed."It is true, Ashton, anyway. How are you?" She asked, and I looked at my sister."I am fine. Can I da
Ashton's POVI felt so restless the entire day as I waited for the night to come because I knew I was going to talk with Megan at last. I opted to stay away from her after our first period in the morning because I didn't want her to get angry with me, or she might say I was not listening to her."How could you forget an important event like that, Ashton?" Zachary asked me the moment I told him the reason I didn't show up the other night to meet Megan, and we were on our way to our second period."No wonder Megan looks so angry with you, Ashton, because she has all the right to feel that way towards you because you didn't even text or call her that you cannot show up," Zach added."I know, and I felt like I messed all the chances I could have with Megan, and I hate myself right now," I replied."And why didn't you bother to call her anyway?" Zach asked."I was scared if she would get angry with me, but now I realized I made things worse," I responded.Ads by Pubfuture"Of course, I did
