Ashley blinked, flushing at his sudden actions and the way he looked at her. Gosh, he knew just how to get to her, didn't he?
"Right… Sure, yeah…" she breathed, still a little surprised. "So, uh… I'm just going to change now, 'kay?"
Lucas grinned and let her go.
“Don’t take too long~” he sang playfully. “I get lonely.”
Ashley hummed and got off of him after pressing a quick kiss to his lips. “Maybe I’ll just take my time now, since you decided to do that,” she teased as she made her way to the bathroom.
Lucas sat up, pouting.
“But Ash~” he whined, a pout on his features. “If you torture me like this, you know I’ll do the same!”
"Oh, well, that's a bummer for me, then, isn't it?" Ashley teased with a wink before closing the door behind herself, snickering.
Lucas scowled before dropping back on the bed. Oh, he’ll get her for this.
In the meantime, he had to get this image out of his head…
(Oh, shoot, I thought I responded. Crap…)
A couple of minutes later, Ashley stepped out of the bathroom and tossed her dirty clothes in the basket. She walked over to the bed and laid down beside Lucas, giving him a small smile.
"Good night, babe… Again," she said with a soft chuckle.
Lucas pulled her to him and wrapped his arms around her tightly, resting his chin on her head.
“Goodnight, love…”
(Low-key got totally distracted by Pinterest. Lol.)
A few hours later, Ashley stirred in her sleep. She hummed and buried her face in Lucas's neck, not willing to wake up. It was too early; she hadn't slept long enough.
(I don’t blame you. XD)
Lucas groaned, holding Ashley close to him. Was it morning already? He, careful not to bother Ashley, checked his phone to find out that yes, it was morning.
“How’s your headache, Ash?” He murmured, running his fingers through his girl’s hair.
"Almost gone… But I wanna go back to sleep," Ashley grumbled tiredly, trying to bury herself in him further.
Lucas kissed her on the head, smiling sleepily.
“Stay home, all right?” He murmured. “Take rest.”
("Take rest" 🤔)
"I'll be bored all alone, though," Ashley murmured, finally blinking her eyes open to look at him. "Any chance you can stay with me?"
(It sounds weird to me, too. :o)
Lucas thought about it for a moment.
“Only if you can convince me to stay.”
(Maybe… just "Rest"?)
Ashley raised an eyebrow at him as a smirk slowly grew on her lips. "We both know I can convince you to stay rather easily, hun."
Lucas opened an eye, an eyebrow raised.
“Right,” he agreed unconvincingly. “You totally can, Ash.”
"Do you doubt me, boyfriend?" Ashley chuckled, rolling on top of Lucas and smirking down at him.
(Don’t doubt her, Lucas)
(Lol. Yes, exactly. I wouldn’t if I were you, Luca.)
Lucas’s eyes shot open at Ashley’s actions, pink coating his cheeks. He opened his mouth to speak, but couldn’t get anything out.
Finally, he cleared his throat and covered his mouth, turning his head away. He really shouldn’t have challenged his girlfriend, especially when she looked incredibly hot when she woke up.
“…no…” he replied quietly. “I’m staying…”
(Lol. Yes, exactly. I wouldn’t if I were you, Luca.)
(🤣)
(Do you want to skip to later in the day?)
(Do you want to skip to later in the day?)
(Yup!)
Ashley handed a sandwich to Lucas and sat down beside him in the couch. “As much as I love just staying home with you like this, we should probably go to class after we eat,” she admitted reluctantly.
Lucas smiled at Ashley in thanks, taking the sandwich.
“I don’t object,” he replied, sighing. “It might get tough catching up on everything we miss…”
