Ashley's POV:
We both frighten and move away from each other when Meredith talks. As we look at her she's still with eyes closed. Hudson looks at me and tries to hold a laugh then I realize Meredith is sleep talking. I have to hold a laugh too and hope we both don't crack up.
Even though we were about to kiss I feel comfortable right now. I don't think the first kiss with him was a mistake. I really enjoyed it but I won't ever tell Hudson that.
"Are you still mad at me?" Hudson asks worriedly. He doesn't deserve forgiveness from me but I don't know how he does it. I feel so bad when I see him worried.
I shake my head as a no and smile. He starts smiling back and looks away in relief. I recognize his dimples and smile even more. Hudson is adorable when he smiles.
Hudson's POV:
I wish Meredith just kept her mouth shut and we kissed again. But anyway I'm glad she's not mad at me anymore. When she smiles at me I feel the heat coming up in me. That's how she makes me feel just with a simple smile. I look away so I stop myself from kissing her again. She still stares at me I notice but I act like I don't recognize it.
When the movie is over and we finally tidied everything up we wake Meredith and I carry her into her room. Ashley opens for me the door and I leave her on her bed. When I walk to the door I turn to face Ashley again.
"Sweet dreams." That's all I said and wait for her to say something. She looks a little... disappointed? Did she want me to stay? Cause actually I would love to spend more time with her.
"You too." She says. Well, it's not the first time I got rejected by her. She's way too scared but she already catches feelings I know that. She wouldn't have kissed me back if she doesn't like me too.
She closes the door and I go to my bedroom. The next morning, I want to go to the bathroom but catch her sneaking out of it. I guess Ashley just took a shower. She is wearing a towel around her body and has wet hair but even like that she looks good. Ashley jumps afraid when she sees me. I have to hide a smile.
"Good morning." I say friendly.
"Good morning." She smiles nervous back. I walk towards the bathroom door while she's still standing there. I notice she's getting more nervous because of me. I know this is mean but I walk even nearer at her until our chests touch. I touch her hips with my left hand. She nervously holds her hands on her chest.
"Sorry." I whisper into her ear and walk into the bathroom. When I get in she immediately runs in Meredith's room and I chuckle. I meet Meredith in the lobby when I get out from the bathroom.
"Hudson, I have to talk to you." She says seriously. Oh shit, she knows!
"I have a school camp this week where I have to be present and Mom and Dad are staying at Aunt Emmie's house in Hampshire. So I have to leave Ashley alone here... Could you please take care of her and make sure she doesn't get bored?" Meredith asks and smiles nervously. Wow, what a relief. Wait, what?
"We're alone here? How long?" I ask.
"One week..?" She says nervously. Perfect.
"Sure. When do you leave?" I make sure to know when I finally got time with Ashley alone.
"Tomorrow."
"Tomorrow already?" I say with a shocked voice and regret it. I hope she didn't get it wrong. Or right.
"Yes. Why? Do you got any plans?" She asks frightened.
"No. I just thought it's soon that's all." I get myself out of this mess.
"Oh ok, then thanks a lot big brother. I love you." She hugs me tight. Thanks to you.
"You're welcome. Can you please ease your arms around me? I can't breathe!" I say. She immediately let's go of me.
"Oh sorry to tight?" She apologizes.
"No, too much perfume." I playfully say and chuckle. She looks shocked and punches my arm. She goes into her room and I am stuck with the mind being alone with Ashley. Finally, we can hang out and have fun without getting disturbed. Once I am thinking about what we can do I hear Meredith through her door telling Ashley about her camp. Ashley first sounds mad at her but I guess they're hugging right after Meredith apologizes to her.
"Oh, you know what? Let's ask Camille and Trevor if they'll come to stay with you." I hear Meredith say.
No, please not!
