That night I lay on the couch thinking about the trip when Ashley came in. She slammed the door and when our eyes met hers were an iridescent blue.
“What’s going on, Ash?”
“Nothing, just had a rough day.” She let out a long sigh as she dropped down onto the couch where my legs had been.
“You haven’t been the same since Ronan took you—I know something’s wrong. Why won’t you talk to me about it?”
“You mean since Merlin changed me into a Fae.” Her voice was unnecessarily harsh but I brushed off my hurt.
“That too. You want to tell me what’s going on?”
“It’s nothing you need to worry about. I hear you’re going on a trip.”
“Well I do worry and I wish you would talk to me but I’m not going to force you. As for the trip, I just found out about it myself. Lochlan and I leave tomorrow, and as excited as I am to hopefully learn my magic, I’m dreading a month with Lochlan,” I grumbled.
“You said things had settled down between you.”
“That awkward tension has been building again and I don’t know how to squash it.”
“What would be so wrong with giving in and seeing where it goes?” she pushed, a little more impatiently than I would have expected. We usually supported each other whole heartedly in whatever romantic decisions the other made. If she wanted to have a fling, I reminded her to text and let me know that she was safe. If I wanted to break up with a boyfriend, she showed me pictures of hot guys to remind me that there were plenty of options available. Rarely did we try to dissuade one another from being in or breaking off a relationship.
“Because I’m not interested in being with a man-whore. He can be all seductive and kissing me one minute and five minutes later have his hands up another woman’s skirt—I’ve seen him! Right now my job is to stop a war and I’m not wasting time with someone who can’t keep his dick in his pants,” I spat with frustration. I was taking out my anger on her rather than Lochlan, who was the appropriate party, but it didn’t seem to matter.
Ashley stood with her hands on her hips, lips pursed together. “Have you even asked him about it or are you jumping straight to judgement?”
“What is there to know?” My voice raised as I stood up. “He had his tongue down her throat and her skirt around her waist just hours after he had kissed me! In what fucked up world am I supposed to be okay with that?”
Ashley’s stormy eyes held mine for a long moment before she whirled and stalked to her room, slamming the door shut. I dropped down onto the couch, bewildered at what had just happened. How had our conversation deteriorated so quickly and why had Ashley defended Lochlan? How could she in good conscience suggest I give him a chance?
I didn’t think I had ever been so hurt and frustrated with my best friend.
