Dom sat at the popular table, a coke in his hands, as he showed a toothy smile at something Josh (his best friend) had said. The table was one seat away from being full. It was probably due to the fact that one of the guys wanted a place for who ever they claimed was their next girlfriend.
Kimberly batted her eyelashes at Dom who simply laughed and put his arm around her waist.
Jennifer who was Kimberlys devotee gasped in triumph and extended her arm out for a high five but in return getting a scoff from her 'best friend'.
Ashley, looked over and wondered if they threw someone out of their little pact in order to save an extra seat, but then thought otherwise. Everyone on that table held an importance, a meaning to one another they couldn't just throw someone out as they were each other strengths and weaknesses. Her gaze averted from the spare seat to Dom's incredibly bewitching (what?!! They are!) eyes. As if he knew she was looking, Dom leaned forward in his seat retracting his arm from Kimberly's waist .
"Dom?" She squeaked catching his arm trying to pull him back down, but he shrugged her of and bit his lip, a grin on his face, and chuckled.
Ashley snapped her head back to the deserted table as her cheeks flushed and she put the back on her hand on the warm flesh. What was she thinking?! She whispered " shit" and looked down hoping it was all in her imagination.
Footsteps echoed in the ,suddenly, extremely hot canteen. They grew closer and closer until Ashley felt a presence right behind her.
She kept her head down and hoped he would take a hint and go away, instead, he sat in one of the many available seats (right next to her) as his piercing gaze sat on her green eyes.
She could see his brand new Nike trainers. They looked good. He was right next to her, she could practically breathe in his cologne as the scent whipped around her.
'Mmmh, fresh mint and blueber- ASHLEY snap out of it' what was the matter with her? Muddled thoughts fumbled in her head as she struggled to meet his penetrating gaze.
"Hello" he said huskily, causing her to jump in her seat.
"Hi" she mumbled, what the heck had she gotten herself into?
A slight chuckle escaped his lips as his fingers drummed on the table "I don't bite you know, not unless you want me to".
A scoff jerked out of her as a new found energy suddenly stepped out of the shadows. Ashley felt empowered by the foreign sensation.
He frowned at this as it wasn't often he was scoffed at.
"Goodbye Dom" and with that she got up and strode out, not a worry in the world.
Dom was left on the table, alone, and completely confounded...
Jake's eyes narrowed as he watched Dom stroll over to Ashley. What did he want, and more importantly why was he so incredibly close to her? Millions of questioned pondered in his head and he gritted his teeth together at the infuriating sight.
"Jealous much mate" Ben snorted.
Jake practically growled with anger and turned to face his table with a look of disgust in his eyes. "Haha very funny" he noted with sarcasm. "I just don't like his guts that's all dumb ass".
"Or maybe your a little jealous of him moving in on that girl" Mike said while smirking and wiggling his eyebrows at Jake.
" That girl has a name and I'm not jealous I'm simply caring for the poor thing, I don't want her to be another victim of that douche bag.
She's different, she isn't like the other ones and I don't want her to be manipulated by him" Jake growled.
Ben chortled " well looks like he's moving in on the poor thing and it also looks like he's got a pretty good chance to, u know considering he's basically the schools player and all".
Mike raised both of his eyebrows and simply nodded his head in a failed attempt at being funny.
Jake tightened his jaw and glared at his friends then back at Ashley who was walking away quickly, "not if I can help it".
Jake rose out of his chair so fast almost knocking it over, which attracted some confused and perplexed looks from people. He simply gave them a sigh and jogged in Ashley's direction.
