[Ashley <3: Hi (22:04)

Ashley <3: We still haven't seen each other after we returned to campus (22:05)

Ashley <3: Are you angry for some reason? (22:05)

Me: Angry at you? Ashley <3: Of course not. Why would I be? (22:06)

Ashley <3: I don't know... (22:06)

Ashley <3: It's just that you didn't send a message today, so I just thought of something silly (22:06)

Me: Are you in your dorm now? (22:07)

Ashley <3: Yes, I just got back from the Dagger Dispute Society. Why? (22:07)

Me: I'm coming over (22:07)].

Klaus put his cell phone away in his pocket and quickened his pace towards Ashley's dormitory. He was eager to see his girlfriend and clear up any misunderstandings that might have arisen. As he walked through the campus, Klaus watched the soft lights that illuminated the path, creating a serene and peaceful atmosphere.

The cool night climate calmed his mind.

Arriving at Ashley's dormitory, he waited a few minutes apart, and when the door opened, he too cracked a smile. Ashley was there, with a gentle smile on her face. Her eyes sparkled with joy at the sight of Klaus. When she approached, they embraced warmly and Klaus felt instantly relaxed.

They sat on a nearby wooden bench, and Ashley rested her head on his shoulder and they stood there, enjoying the comfort.

"I'm sorry if I worried you," Klaus said, breaking the silence. "I was so focused on training and ended up forgetting to text. I swear it wasn't on purpose."

Ashley lifted her head and looked into Klaus' eyes. His gaze conveyed understanding and affection. "I understand. I know how committed you are to the tournament and your goals. When you told me yesterday, I confess I jumped for joy. So you don't have to worry, I was just a little unsure."

Klaus smiled, caressing Ashley's face with the back of his hand. "You never have to be insecure. You are my inspiration, my support. And I am here for you, always."

Ashley smiled back, feeling loved and understood. "I'm here for you too, Klaus. And I'm so proud. I'm sure you're going to kick ass at the tournament."

At that moment, their eyes met and the heat from their bodies created a natural tension between them.

Ashley looked into Klaus's left eye, then into his right eye, and finally into his mouth, providing a guy like him with the most obvious sign that she wanted to be kissed. Then Klaus slipped his right hand behind Ashley's hair, grabbed the back of her neck, and brought her face closer to his. However, Klaus did not kiss her immediately, instead, he whispered:

"May I?"

She looked up at him and smiled. "Of course you may."

With a mischievous smile, Klaus brought his lips closer to Ashley's and finally sealed them in a soft, passionate kiss. Their kiss was sweet and full of affection, conveying all the connection and affection they shared. As they kissed, the world around them seemed to disappear, leaving only the feel of each other's lips and the intensity of the moment. It was a moment of intimacy and complicity, where all words were replaced by touch.

The kiss went on, full of tenderness and mutual desire. Klaus felt his heart speed up and his body warm up with Ashley's proximity. It was a unique sensation, a mixture of love and passion that enveloped them completely.

When they finally parted, they remained with their gazes connected, sharing a moment of silence full of meaning. Klaus gently stroked Ashley's cheek with his thumb as she smiled, her eyes shining with happiness. Then she looked away and proposed:

"You know, Klaus, Helen is out meeting Andrew at a coffee shop and she's going to be a little late, so do you want to... maybe come in?"

Ashley's voice was charged with emotion and her face was as red as a strawberry.

Klaus arched his eyebrows in surprise and smiled. "Of course I want to, but how will we do that? I can't just walk in the front door. Other girls would see me and might report it to the inspectors."

"You are right about that, except that on the side of my window there is a long railing that is supposed to be to support a living garden that is not being used. So how agile can you be?"

Klaus smiled mischievously once again. "You can leave it to me."

With a mixture of excitement and amusement, Klaus accepted Ashley's proposed challenge. He was determined to enjoy every moment at her side, even if it meant venturing into a little mischief. Guided by Ashley's instructions, Klaus quickly found the railing, which extended along the outside wall of the building. It was a challenge, but he was confident in his physical abilities and agility.

With a determined look, Klaus prepared to scale the railing. He gripped the bars firmly and began to climb deftly, using his strength and coordination to advance carefully.

As Klaus climbed, Ashley watched in awe and anxiety from above. She was silently rooting for him to make it to the window without any problems and without anyone seeing him either.

After a few tense moments with the girls approaching the window, Klaus finally reached Ashley's dorm window. He smiled, displaying a victorious expression and stretched to reach the windowsill, Ashley couldn't help but laugh as he grabbed her hand to help him up.

When Klaus jumped in, his heavy feet on the wooden floor made a loud sound and they both stood in silence, wide-eyed, yet wanting to laugh too.

"I think we're safe." whispered Klaus, with a hint of excitement in his voice.

"You're amazing." She whispered, impressed with Klaus' agility, and closed the bedroom window.

Klaus stood up, dusting off his pants, and asked:

"Now that we are here, what shall we do?"

Ashley smiled mischievously and pushed him onto his bed, "Well, we have this room to ourselves just for the two of us. I guess we can take the opportunity to get to know each other better." She suggested, with a teasing tone.
