Chapter 253
LILY’S POV♡
1 followed him, limping and feeling cold from our skin uncomfortably.
I let out a huff when I got tired of walking, my toe still hurt and I really wanted Asher to carry me.

“Let me think about it.” He pretended to think by tapping his index finger
“I thought we’re friends. Wow, you’re on a bad start at being a friend.” I scolded.
“You know, you can help a girl out here, my toe is killing me and I’m I was desperate at the moment.

shock.
“How dare you! I’m not heavy!” I spat, offended. He only let out a laugh and I sucked my me until all I want to do is kick him down a hill.
eeth in annoyance. Is this how it’ll be to be his friend? Annoying
“If you’re not going to carry me, then I’ll just stay here.” I huffed before sitting on the ground and crossed my arms and pouted like a little kid. He walked past me and I refrained from throwing a rock at his head.
He turned around chuckling while shaking his head at me.
“You know, you’re really stubborn.” He said.
“Why, thank you.” I smiled sarcastically.
“There are snakes and bears here.” He revealed.
“Nice try, but that doesn’t scare me.” I said arrogantly but deep down I was about to shit my pants when I heard the word snake. I have seen an anaconda, and it doesn’t end well.
“Well, I’m leaving you to fend for yourself.” He started walking again, not glancing my way once.
“Wow, the bestest friend ever.” I snorted, trying not to care. Oh my god, please turn back!
“Ugh, come on.” He turned around, bending down a little for me to come on his back.
“Yes!” I rejoiced.
I got off the ground, limped to him and got on his back, holding him tightly.
We were ten minutes in our walk when we heard something shift in the bushes and I got paranoid. I started to panic when the sound got nearer. I gripped Asher tightly, closing my eyes while chanting a prayer in my head.
“Asher, we’re about to die.” I muttered, fear creeping in.
“Lily, you’re being dramatic. It’s not anything.” He reassured me.
“It could be a snake, rat, spider…” I rushed out, still panicking.
“Rat, spider? Wow, I’m shaking from fear.” He answered sarcastically.
We heard a little growl and Asher stopped in his tracks.

“See, I told you there was something here with us, what if it’s Annabella?” I whispered sharply, looking around the scenery
“Lily, seriously? Annabelle? Babe. I don’t think Annabelle growls.” He chuckled.
“Yes she does. I saw it in the recent movie they released.” I responded, afraid that it actually was the evil doll,
“Whatever, it’s a movie, Lily. It’s not real.” He tried to ease my mind.
“That’s what you think, but there are some scary movies that are based on true stories, if you must know.” I claimed and gripped him tighter.
The growling stopped and out came a dog who looked like it was starving. Shit mother of Jesus please save us from this beast. It was growling viciously, gaining on us. Asher tensed up before holding on to me tightly.
When the vicious dog got closer, I closed my eyes and waited to be eaten. I was relieved when I heard it whimper and ran away. I opened my eyes looking for what saved us. It was Asher’s foot.
“What did you do to that poor dog?” I asked, confused.
“That poor dog was about to eat our ass for dinner, so I kicked it.” He shrugged nonchalantly.
“Would you stop pretending that you weren’t scared?” I said, annoyed.
“I wasn’t, I’m the one who saved us in the first place.” He affirmed.
I rolled my eyes at his cocky tone. “Wow, what a hero.” I said sarcastically.
He didn’t acknowledge my sarcastic tone and continued to walk. We reached the motorcycle and he put me down softly. He reached for the helmets, giving me one before hopping on the motorcycle. I put mine on and got on after him, holding him tightly. He started it up and drove out of there.
We reached the school thirty minutes later. There wasn’t anyone outside because classes were still going on. I got off and gave him back his extra helmet. I cleared my throat of the lump that was forming and looked down.
“Umm, today was fun… yeah, bye!” I said, not knowing what to say. I tried to quickly walk to the building but he stopped me.
“Yes, I’ll see you tomorrow for that project.” He stated.
“Yeah, sure!” I rushed out before entering and running up the stairs to my dorm room.
I could hear his slight chuckles behind me. Entering the room, I slid down and sat on the floor and rested my back on the door, not really accepting the events that happened earlier. From the groping and moaning, to almost getting eaten by a dog. I don’t know what got into me to even make Asher touch me that way. It’s because you like him way more than a friend, and always have.
It is true, though, even after all the bullying, I just always had unrequited feelings for him and it hurts more now since I knew what caused him to bully me. And I’m pretty sure we can’t ever be together, his parents won’t ever accept me. Not that Asher would want to pursue a relationship with me,
anyway.
Feeling sad because of my thoughts, I got up to change before I caught a cold with those wet clothes. The room looked clean and the vomit was nowhere to be seen, which was surprising. Sonia must have come in to clean it up.
I heard the door open harshly before hearing footsteps entering.
“Where have you been, you little slut?” Sonia asked rudely, a new guy followed behind her like a puppy.
