Chapter 13

Ashley

After lunch, Christopher showed me the gym and we both did a little workout. Him with weights, me on the treadmill and bike. As much as I tried not to watch him, I couldn’t help it. Afterwards, he offered for us to take a swim, but I just couldn’t handle that. At least he was wearing a t-shirt while he was lifting weights, but if he’s in the pool, he won’t be. So instead, I said I had some homework and studying to do.

Darlene is relentless. She has called and left like ten messages on my phone, and about the same amount of text messages. No apologies. No explanation. Just nosy, self-centered messages, asking how things are going with Christopher. I’d bet money on what shade of green she is. I’d also bet money that I was right. That she isn’t over Will, and that she only wanted to sleep with Christopher for revenge.

When I hear the tearful message left at about four o’clock in the afternoon, just as I close my textbook and rub my tired, overworked eyes, I cave.

Christopher is downstairs in the study, doing his homework, too. He lifts his head from his textbook when he sees me. “Do you mind giving me a drive over to the dorm?” I try to keep the pathetic tone from my voice.

He doesn’t hesitate. “Sure.” I love it that he knows when to not ask questions. We say nothing on the ride over. “You okay?” he asks when we pull up to the barren lot. Saturday classes are over for the day, and there are only a handful of cars peppered around the area.

“I’m fine. Thanks for everything.”

“I’ll be home. I’ve still got a load of studying to do, so don’t sweat it.” He says. The look on his face is odd. I’m not sure what to make of it. But his eyes slide down to my lips for a second, and I think that maybe he’s looking for a kiss goodbye?

“You mean you’re not going on a crawl for some action tonight? It is Saturday, after all.” I tease.

He gives me a quirky grin that’s kind of sexy. “I tell you what. If I’m going out, I’ll text message you to tell you where I’m leaving the key. I’ll get you one made once I drop you off.”

I snuffle a little laugh. “Okay.”

“Don’t kill each other.”

“I’ll see you later.”

Darlene is sitting at the desk when I open the door. She’s pouring over schoolbooks, but her face is flushed, and her eyes are puffy from crying. When she sees me, she rises to give me a hug. “Hey,” she says. “I’m sorry for being such a bitch yesterday.”

“It’s okay. We’ll blame it on Will. That prick.”

“He is a prick.” She snarls.

“See? I told you you weren’t over him.”

“That son of a bitch showed up here with fucking flowers…flowers! As if that’s going to smooth over him fucking that girl up against the wall!”

“Are you serious?” I almost laugh. How pathetic.
