Ashley's POV:
The thought of being alone with Hudson in the house makes me nervous but I guess having Trevor here would definitely not be a good idea.
"Actually, don't call them. I feel bad for Trevor because I rejected him. So it would be very awkward if he stays here..." I say.
"You are probably right," Meredith says and puts her phone away.
"Let's just enjoy this day before you leave!" I say and hug her.
"You're right. Oh God I'm going to miss you so badly!" She hugs me back tightly.
Hudson's POV:
Actually, I didn't think Ashley would stop Meredith calling Trevor. She probably doesn't want to see him since she rejected him. Better for me.
As I am still thinking about what Ashley and I could do somebody knocks on my bedroom door. When I open it it's Ashley.
"Hudson, we're eating breakfast are you coming?" She asks me friendly.
"Sure. But first... Thank you." I say.
"For what?" She looks confused.
"For not calling Trevor here and staying alone with me in the house even though I know you don't feel comfortable." I say.
"Did you eavesdrop on us?" She asks playfully.
"Well, kind of. I mean you two don't really talk silently." I chuckle and she joins me. I grab her hand and she immediately looks nervous. I like it when I make her feel this way. This gives me more confidence in my feelings for her.
"It really means a lot to me that you want to stay alone with me here. I promise you won't feel lonely or bored." I say and she smiles. When I let go of her hand we walk down to the balcony to finally eat breakfast.
Ashley's POV:
I have to admit, that really was adorable from him. I guess I'm not feeling nervous or uncomfortable now. Actually, I don't even have a reason to.
While we were eating we decided to go to the mall shopping for Meredith's school camp. Hudson drives us so we had to get ready really fast. I didn't even put on makeup.
In the mall, Meredith meets some friends, and Hudson and I are standing awkwardly beside her talking with them.
"Let's get to the grocery store for some snacks. I've planned something for us tonight." Hudson whispers and I am now excited about what he has planned.
"Meredith, Hudson and I are going to the grocery store. We meet in 15 minutes at the exit of the mall." I say to her and she just nods. I hope she understood and if not she still can contact us.
I caught Hudson smiling when I told Meredith I'm going with him. We walk into the store as an older man crashed into me. I almost tripped but Hudson caught me. The stranger looks mad at me and walks as nothing happened. Hudson is still behind me holding my arms.
"Saying sorry costs nothing!" Hudson yells at this man but he ignores him.
"Are you ok?" He asks me worried.
"Yes, I am thank you." I smile at him and he smiles back. A girl in the store is staring at us when we get in. She looks at me like I stole her something.
"Hudson, am I getting insane or why is this girl starring at me so mad?" I ask him if he notices her too.
"Which girl-..." He looks around and stops. He looks shocked at this girl I meant.
"Hudson?" I say but he doesn't react. Some seconds he finally recognizes that he's staring at her.
"Let's get out of here." He frowns and grabs my wrist to walk out of the grocery store. Wait, what?
"Hi, Hudson. Long time not seen." Someone says and I turn to face her. It's that girl who looked mad at me. And she knows Hudson?
"I hoped to never see you again, Monika." He frowns at her.
"You don't want to introduce me to your new friend?" She playfully says and obviously means me. Someone, please tell me who's this!
"I know you're not good at it but mind your own business." He snaps. I never met him this cold before.
"So, I guess I have to do it by myself. Hi, I'm Monika, Hudson's girlfriend." She introduces herself.
What? Girlfriend?
