Chapter 258
LILY’S POV
Twenty minutes later, I was knocking on Asher’s door. Tapping my foot impatiently I jumped when it opened unexpectedly fast.
His blue eyes fell into my own and held the emotion of guilt. What was he guilty for? His nose looked broken and he had a cut on his lip, yet he still looked handsome. I averted my eyes and looked at the door like it was the most interesting thing I have ever seen. Well this is awkward!
“Um, aren’t you gonna invite me in?” I asked and bit my bottom lip.
He cleared his throat, “Yes, come in!”
He stepped aside, scratching the back of his head. Rolling my eyes at him, I entered with a huff.
“We’re doing the project in my room so, let’s go upstairs.” He said, while already walking up the stairs.
“You mean I’m the one who will be doing the project.” I retorted back sarcastically and closed the door.
He shrugged, “Same thing.”
I raised a brow. The audacity of this dude.“No, it’s not.” I told him and followed him up the steps.
“Could you stop complaining?” He said, irritated.
“Fine, I’ll shut up.” I could tell he wasn’t in the best of moods from the way his body tensed up.
When we finally entered the room I was the first one to sit on the bed, and got ready to bring out my stuff when he stopped me by clearing his throat. Looking up, Asher had a smirk on his face.
“I did not fart!” I blurted out without thinking.
He raised his eyebrow. “Wow, nice to know my bed isn’t blessed with your ass burps.” I gave out an awkward and embarrassed laugh and tried to occupy myself with getting out the things for the project. I heard him let out a chuckle and lifted up my head to see what amused him. “Why did you tell me
that?” He asked, smirking.
“Oh, I thought Sonia told everyone I farted in class.” I shrugged trying to seem nonchalant.
His blue eyes opened wide “What! You farted in class?” He gasped shocked.
“No I didn’t!” I yelled.
His brows scrunched in confusion. “Then why would she tell everyone you farted?”
“She was trying to get back at me for telling everyone she was wearing my jacket.” I told him, remembering what happened. I got annoyed.
“Oh that makes sense, but are you sure you didn’t let out a fart?” He teased.
Squinting at him, I yelled. “Shut up, Asher!” Putting his hands up to mock surrender, he chuckled and came to sit next to me, I felt a little uncomfortable at him being so near that I scooted away a little. This action didn’t go unnoticed by Asher because his face showed his annoyance.
“What, are you afraid of me now?” He asked, annoyed.
“Why would I be afraid of you?” I was really confused.
“I saw the way you looked at me when I was fighting with Nick.” He mumbled, I could barely hear him, he looked down with guilt.

“Oh, that’s his name!” I said enthusiastically, finally knowing his name, but maybe I should not have been so enthusiastic because the next thing I know,

Chapter 258
Asher’s eyes hardened and his fists clenched,
“What, are you Into him already?” He spat out his tone holding nothing but distaste.
“You are so unbelievable.” I whispered, rolling my eyes,
“Don’t change the topic!” He yelled.
“Gosh, Asher, calm down. I’m not into him, okay.” I said to him, trying to calm him down by keeping my voice soft.
His eyes softened before he averted his eyes away from my intense stare. What has gotten into him? From the time when he and Nick got into the fight. he has been nothing but angry. Should I ask him about the fight? Fuck it! I’ll ask him.
Taking a much needed breath, I cleared my throat before asking the most dreaded question I have been dying to ask him. “Why did you and Nick fighth
Surprise held his features before he schooled it with a look of indifference.
“It’s none of your business.” He answered rudely.
“Asher, for this friendship to work, you need to open up to me, or I’ll think again about being your friend.” I told him. I was getting more annoyed at his
attitude.
“Fine! He called you an ugly slut that he would bang by blocking his eyes.” He mumbled, his jaw clenching with irritation.
“Oh.” Was all that came out of my mouth. I didn’t expect them to fight over me. “Was that why you fought with him? Asher, you didn’t have to do that, it’s not like I haven’t heard worse.” I told him softly, feeling butterflies in my stomach at the thought of Asher fighting a guy because of me.
“I know, that’s why I’m guilty. I put all those images and bad words into their heads that they keep saying it to you without a second thought.” He said guiltily.
“It’s okay, Asher, it’s all in the past now. Plus I kinda am forgiving you now since you did defend my honor.” I said, trying to convince him. Maybe he wasn’t so bad.
“I couldn’t let him say all those nasty words about you, plus I’m the only one that will bang you, but not with my eyes blocked.” He said bluntly. My mouth opened and shut at his words.
“Asher!” Could he be anymore blunt?
“What, it’s true.” He shrugged.
“No it’s not, I will never sleep with you.” I said a little unconvincingly.
“Keep telling yourself that.” He snorted out arrogantly.
“Could you be any more arrogant?” I asked.
“Baby, you could never resist this sexiness, just like the way you couldn’t resist it at the waterfall.” His eyes held mischief at this point.
“You will never let me live that down, will you?” I asked, feeling flustered already from the topic. How did we even get to this topic in the first place?
“Nope, I will always remind you about it.” He told me before sticking his tongue out in a playful manner. “Did I mention that you have the have ever seen?” He asked me, smirking in a seductive way.

“Asher, shut up and let me do the project, would you?” I said trying to avert the topic.
“Geez, fine. I was just teasing.” He said before scooting closer to me to help with the project. I looked at him shocked.
I raised a brow. “So you’re going to help me now?”
Chapter 258
“Duh, I can’t have you doing it by yourself, you might make us fail.” He shrugged. Again, the audacity of this dude is something else
“Dude, I am way more intelligent than you.” I snorted.
“That you are babe, that you afe.” He whispered, looking at me with eyes that held admiration.
“Would you stop calling me babe?” I muttered out, looking away from his intense stare that was making me feel jittery.
“Okay, how about honey, sugarplum, sweet cheeks…” He listed.
“Okay, stick to babe!” I yelled out frustratingly and gave him the stink eye but the jerk just laughed it off before blowing me a kiss.
