Chapter 285
Asher’s pov
I had just finished talking to Lily when Luke came barging in my room. His hands were filled with beer. When he saw me packing my duffel bag, but gav out a groan.
“Dude are you still going?” He whined like a three year old. He stopped beside me and handed me one of the beer cans.
I sighed, “Yeah, I have some important business to talk to my parents about.”
“You’re finally gonna talk to them about Lily, huh?” He stated, giving me a grin.
He opened one of the beers and in one go, gulped down all of its contents, I raised my brow at this but he gave me a shrug.
“I’ve been thinking and I think I know what I’m going to do.” I said looking at the beer can.
I already miss her, these last few weeks have been hard enough, now w I have to wait for another week to see her beautiful face.
“Good for you man!” He patted my shoulder. I chuckled, opening the beer can and took a large gulp of the bitter liquid.
“Speaking about your girl, I saw her earlier, she was in that Niall guy’s car.” He said and studied me for a reaction.
“Where the fuck were they heading?” I seethed, my knuckles turned white as I grippe
the can in a deathly hold.
“From what I could tell, it was probably her hometown. I saw that they went on the path heading there.” He said and watched the can in my hands.
“What the fuck were you doing right over there anyway?” I questioned, he must have been way out into town to see the path to Lily’s hometown.
“Let’s just say I had some business with some friends.” He told me, stressing out the word friends, making me know they were anything but.
I shook my head, he was probably out vandalizing like he usually does. He says it helps him get away from the stress at home so I didn’t want to judge -him for his actions but I still worry about him though.
The beer was now spilling on the white rug beneath me as my grip hardened. The more I thought of these two together alone, the more enraged I got.! threw the almost empty tin can on the wall and watch it spill the rest of its contents.
“Woah dude, chill!” Luke said as he looked at the beer can in shock.
“I can’t fucking chill when my girl is out there with another guy!” I yelled.
“It’s not like they have anything going on.” Luke said, trying to ease my mind.
It wasn’t working as I pictured them kissing. I let out a loud angry roar as I picked up my phone and dialed her number. It went straight to voicemail. I quickly ended it and threw it on my bed. At this point, I was beyond furious.
Why did she bring him home with her? Were they a couple, was I too late? Is she bringing him home to introduce him as her boyfriend to her mom? And why didn’t she tell me?
All those questions rang through my head as I sat down on my bed with my hands on my head. I felt hurt that she didn’t inform me about Niall being with her, it even hurt more that it wasn’t me she had brought.
I felt a hand on my shoulder and I lifted my head to stare at Luke. His blonde hair fell in his eyes and he swiftly pushed it away from his face. He squeezed my shoulder in comfort “Dude just calm down, stop jumping to conclusions right now.
“Luke, what if I finally lost her?” My voice came out weak, almost childlike.
He raised his eyebrow in disbelief and walked to stand in front of me “Have you seen the way she stares at you?”

“Yeah, in revolt.” I mumbled sadly.
He looked back at me like I grew another head. “No, she stares at you like you’re the only guy she has ever seen, that girl is deeply in vona ve
“You really think so?” My eyes widened hopefully.
“Yeah, it’s annoying really. The girl has always been in love with you, even during the bullying.” He sighed.
“Weren’t my best decisions, I regret it everyday that’s why I’ll make it up to her until my last breath, because she’s worth it.” I stated truthfully. That’s a vow I’ll always keep.
Luke hit my shoulder playfully. “That’s my boy, now go finish packing so you can go home to those demons.”
I laughed, it wasn’t the first time he referred to them as demons. It’s actually pretty amusing. They do sometimes act that way, especially.my mom.
I went back to packing with Lily still in my thoughts. I’ll call her tomorrow, that way I’ll have time to cool off. I’ll be going to my parents tomorrow. I just wanted to pack early, hoping I’ll leave early as well.
I was taking out my duffel bag out of the taxi. My parents hate my motorcycle so there was no way that it would have been an option to come here. Even though I was planning on leaving by tomorrow I brought a huge duffle bag with me hoping that it’ll fool them to think that I will be staying for longer.
I studied the enormous house, or should I say mansion, and walked to the huge gate. There were two guards in front and when they saw me they gave me a bow of respect before quickly opening the gate.
I walked in and peered at the house I will be seeing for the last time. I sighed, I had some good memories here. Lily’s house should be an hour away from here but I knew she wouldn’t be too thrilled to see me on her doorstep. She needs her space anyway.
I rang the doorbell and waited for one of the maids to answer. In a second it opened and revealed a maid who has been working here since when I was a kid. I gave her a warm smile which she returned.
“Oh master Asher, please do come in!” She said opening the door wider. She barely reached my shoulders so I had to bend my head to look at her. She -reminds me of Lily with her height.
“Stop calling me master, Mirra. I’m not royalty.” I sighed and stepped in.
“But sir, madam would be furious if I don’t.” She informed me.
I knew how my mom could be. She wasn’t the easiest person to get along with, very manipulative. Having my dad wrapped around her fingers, had her being able to bend everyone to her will. I sighed and changed the subject.
“Where are my parents?” I asked as I looked around the huge house.
“Ah son, what brings you here?” My mom’s voice spoke up. She was coming down from the stairs in an expensive long dress. I’m pretty sure she would not be going out but yet she likes to dress up even if it’s hot outside.
