Chapter 54 - Always Be Yes

Ashton's POV

I know I could no longer stop myself from seeing Megan again because she was driving me crazy that I kept watching her from a distance during our classes, and even if she asked me to stay away from her, I couldn't control my emotions anymore. And now that I was given another chance to be with Megan, I will take this opportunity to show her that I am serious with her, and I want her to realize that I courted her not because of Isabelle but because I am really into her.

I left our house early in the morning because I didn't want her to wait for me and lost my chance to date her again. I arrived so early in front of their house, listening to my favorite playlist in my car stereo while I was looking at her main door. And I couldn't stop my heart from hammering as I waited for Megan to come out.

I smiled while I couldn't stop thinking about her room. Since I have been there, I could now imagine what her bedroom looked like, and I couldn't stop myself from smiling thinking about her guitar. Megan Corteza fascinated me beyond what I could imagine. She is not only gorgeous, but she is brilliant and talented as well. But I can tell she still feels so little in front of the rich girls in our school; Megan should be proud of herself because she is fantastic, but I can tell her family's financial status is the reason she felt shy.

I looked at my watch, and I got out of my car since I could tell Megan was coming. I only told her I would pick her up at seven o'clock in the morning, and I knew Megan would never be late. I was leaning on my pick-up truck when she got out from the main door, and I couldn't stop myself from staring at her beautiful face. Megan looked so sexy with her floral dress while she hung her bag on her shoulder, and I smiled when she ran towards me. And I can tell my ex was looking at me differently now, and I can feel we are going to enjoy our date today.

"Did you eat breakfast?" I asked Megan, and she shook her head, and I smiled at her.

"Good, because I was planning to take you to your favorite place," I added, and she raised her eyebrows.

"I did my research, you know, and I found out my favorite girl loves pancakes," I added, and she blushed while she was smiling at me.

I took her bag from her, and I put it in the back seat, and I assisted Megan in getting inside my pick-up. I asked her sister what is Megan's favorite for breakfast, and I took her to the famous pancake house in the city. And I loved watching her devour her pancake with butter, and she was enjoying her hot chocolate drink.

"Aren't you going to eat, Ashton? You told me you didn't eat your breakfast too, but it seems you are so busy staring at my face, I felt conscious, but I don't care since I love eating pancakes." She said, and I couldn't contain my laughter, and it feels so wonderful to hear her laughter as well.

"Well, I miss you, Meg. That is why I can't stop myself from staring at your lovely face." I said, and she blushed right away, and I tried to look at the food on my plate, and I realized I didn't feel hungry anymore after I looked at Megan, and all I wanted to do right now was to look at her beautiful face.

"You better eat your food, Ashton." She said as she continued to eat her food, and I smiled at her as I took the first bite of my pancake. When she raised her head, I was staring straight into her beautiful eyes, and it felt like time stood still as we stared at each other. Then suddenly, she looked over my shoulder, and I could tell her face turned so pale, and when I turned my head to look who was behind me, I saw Dexter coming into our way. I stood up right away, and I needed to find the courage and talk to her brother for once, and then he stopped in front of our table.

"Hey, Dexter, please don't get angry with Megan. We are eating breakfast here because we need to do our literature project together." I said, and he looked at me with unreadable expressions on his face, and he didn't talk, and I reckoned Dexter was giving me time to talk more, and I took the opportunity to tell him everything that I wanted say to him.

"And not only that, I want to take her on a date after we finish our project," I said, and he smiled at me, and I was shocked when he tapped my shoulder.

"Just don't hurt my sister ever again, Pritzgold, or I will never hesitate to punch you again." He said, and I chuckled, and then he turned to face his sister, who was still in shock.

"Breath, Megan, I am not angry that I found you here with Ashton, enjoy your day with your boyfriend, and I hope you will not hide anything from me from now on." He said, and I could tell Megan felt so guilty.

"I am sorry, Dex. I don't want you to get upset with me." Megan said, and her brother smiled at her.

"I want you to be happy, Megan." He said, ruffled Megan's hair before he said goodbye to us, and we both released a sigh of relief after Dexter left us.

"Wow! That was intense, and I thought your brother would hit me again, and I felt glad he was no longer angry with me." I said.

"Yeah, I forgot this pancake house is near the hotel where he works," Megan responded, and I could tell she was blushing again.

"Maybe I can ask you now since I want to make you my girlfriend again before we arrive at our destination." I declared, and she raised her head and looked at me in the eyes. 

"Where are we going, Ashton?" Megan asked, and I took her hands over the table without breaking eye contact with her.

"I will only tell you where we are going if you will answer my question first, Megan Corteza, for the last few days, I wasn't the same person after you broke up with me, I can't stop thinking about you, and I tried to stay away from you because I know that is what you ever wanted." I declared.

"But I am sorry, Megan, I felt miserable without you. I want to beg you to take me back, please, be my girl again. Will you be my girlfriend again, Megan?" I asked, and the moment she gave me her sweetest smile, I knew right away that she felt the same way too, and when she squeezed my hands, I couldn't stop my heart from racing.

"Me too, I was miserable after I broke up with you, Ashton, and I hate myself that I can't stop myself from thinking about you. I know it was my fault because I was worried I would get hurt like my brother, but I am still hurting after we broke up. I would be lying if I told you I don't want to be your girlfriend again because every night, I was hoping you would come to me and beg me to take you back, and I couldn't believe it is happening right now." Megan declared, and I felt so happy.

"My answer would always be yes, Ashton." She said, and I leaned down, and I kissed her lips, and I couldn't stop myself from feeling so happy that I kissed her again.

"Thank you, Meg. I promise I will never mess up again," I said, and she smiled at me with her perfect white teeth shining.

.

We got out from the pancake house holding hands, and the moment we got inside my car, I couldn't stop myself from kissing Megan again, and I hauled her body from her seat before she could fasten her seatbelt. I bring her to my lap, and I let her sat on my thighs, and we can't stop touching and kissing each other

"I miss you so much, Meg," I said as I nibbled her earlobe, and I smiled when I heard my girlfriend moan.

"I miss you too, Ashton, " She replied, and I kissed her lips once more, and we made out until her lips got swollen, and I don't want to stop kissing my girl, but I need to stop myself because we need to leave and drive to our destination, and I can't wait to take her there. 

"I want us to be like this the entire day, but we need to get going, and as I promised, I will tell you now where we are going since you are now my girlfriend again," I said, and Megan giggled as I help her go back to her seat.

"So, where are you going to take me, Ashton?" She asked, and I can tell her eyes are sparkling, and I can tell Megan is so happy to have me back

in her life as well.

"I want to take you to my grandfather's estate outside the city. You will love it there, Megan. I asked you to bring extra clothes because I want to take you swimming in the lake within my grandfather's estate." I said, and I could see the excitement on her face.

"Really? And more kisses?" She asked, and I chuckled.

"You bet I will kiss you until you beg me to stop because I can't stop myself from devouring your sweet lips, Megan," I said. Her entire face turned so red, and she looked so adorable that I couldn't stop myself from kissing her again.. I drive away from the pancake house with a broad smile on my face while I was holding my girlfriend's hand, and I can feel the overflowing happiness that enveloped my heart, and I want to shout that I am now Megan's boyfriend once again.
