"See you later"
"Be careful dear"
"Bye!" She bid her farewell.
STARR BOYZ' APARTMENT.
Walking into the house, Addison gasps at the scene that beheld her.
There was Ash locking Robin's shirt glowering at him.
"TELL ME ALREADY ARE YOU REALLY DATING HER!!" Ash growled at Robin who maintain a calm face.
"So what if I am? Can't I?"
"How dare you say that? Is this who you really are! Why? Now that he isn't here anymore you think you can do whatever you want!"
"Ash listen
"Shut up you prick!" Ash punch his cheek hardly before he could finish.
Addison gasps loudly covering her mouth with her palms.
"You promised me you won't have anything to do with her but now what? Why? You still love her??" Ash howled at Robin who touch his bursted lips.
"Bastard!" Ash spat leaving there angrily.
"Robin!" Addison ran over to him holding him but Robin jerk her hand away leaving.
"Robin! Robin wait!" Addison ran after him.
"Robin...?" Addison called slowly as she stepped inside the room. She saw him beside the desk taking out a balm. Quickly, she ran over to him.
"Oh! I'll do that!" She snatched the balm from him dropping the nylon in her hand on the floor.
"You don't need to. I will"He made to collect it back but she shifted away.
"Just let me. Sit" She pushed him slightly and he landed his butt on the chair.
"Hey!"
"Shhh!" She shushed him and he sighs looking away. Addison smiles opening the balm. She got some on her finger and moves closer to him. Robin was looking away so she had to held his face making him face her. Their eyes met and she blinked.
"What?" He asked but she shook her head darting her eyes to his bursted lips.
Soon as she made contact with it, the kiss' scene replayed in her head. She released a light gasp not taking her eyes off his lips.
"Give it to me I'll do it" Robin collect the balm from her when he realizes she won't do a thing.
"No...let me" she made to collect it back but he shifted it away.
"Why? So you can kiss me abruptly again?" He raised a brow while she withdraw biting her lips.
"Just stay away" He started applying the balm himself.
Addison sighs staring at him.
"I'm sorry...it's all because of me" She muttered slowly.
Bin looks at her.
"The article and also...you got hurt" She muttered, he rolled his eyes.
"What are those?" He pointed to the nylon beside her.
"Ah! Right. This" She took the nylon bringing out a box of cranberries from it.
"Mom asked me to give you these. They are really really good" She beams stretching it to him. Robin just stare blankly at it.
"I don't want. Take it away"
"Uh? Why? These are really beneficial for your health Come on" she pushed a cranberry forward to his mouth while he moves away.
"Don't be a baby Binny take it"
"Seriously!" He pushes her away.
"I said I don't want!!" He finds himself yelling.
"Robin...?" She called slowly.
Robin sighs.
"I'm allergic to cranberries...if I eat that I'll die!"
"Uh?"
He wipe his lips.
"You're allergic? Seriously?? You aren't just saying that?"
"What?"
"Who the hell has an allergic for cranberries?"
"Well I do" He snaps.
"Ohh...okay then...I'll just eat it alone" she took a bite.
"Ow...sour" She gnash her teeth. Robin looks at her and shook his head.
"You bring me nothing but troubles" He glared walking towards his piano. He sat there and started playing after wearing his headphones.
Addison turns around looking at him for a while. She then sighs before walking out of the room.
"Hey" Addison called Ash who was sitting alone at the terrace. He has a bottle of drink in his hand.
"You okay?" She asked sitting beside him.
"Newbie...I would like to be alone...please" He said slowly.
"Will you punch me too if I don't leave?" She joked. He looks at her. Addison offers him a warm smile but then he looks away ruffling his hair.
"Sh*t it's happening again" He muttered to himself.
"What was that earlier?" Addison inquired.
"I don't wish to talk about it"
"But I wish to hear about it"
"Ask someone else..."
"No one else will tell me except you. You're my gist partner remember?" She nudge him. Ash looks at her again and she wiggles her brow at him jokingly. He couldn't help smiling.
"Want a drink?"
"Nah my tolerance is low" She declined. He nodded.
"There are two people i admired most in this world. Bin is part of them"
"Then why did you do that to him earlier?"
"Cause I was angry"
"Why were you angry?"
"He broke his promise. His promise to stay away from her"
"Who is the other person?"
"Rush..."
"Ohhh...him? I should have known. This is about him again"
"Rush and Robin founded me this dream of mine. They made me what I am today. They're people I dote on a lot. They're both very precious to me"
"I would like to hear your story"
"I bet you don't want to. It isn't really pleasing for the ears"
"I would like to listen anyway"
"After joining the band...I started to see the world with a different view. I was the last to join. They embrace me when no one did and accepted me when I was condemned by all. I always envy those two a lot cause they loved each other like nothing else. There was no one who knew them like I do. I know practically everything. Including their feelings."
"Was there a girl between them?"
"Viola. You've met her once. At the gym"
"The rainbow head??"
"Robin liked her first...but Rush got her first"
"So she was the one"
"He promised me he'll kill his feelings for her but I can't believe he dare do do this now"
"Why are you so angry over that?"
"Rush liked her a lot. They loved each other a lot we all know that"
"But Rush isn't here any longer right?"
"No...he's still coming back. Robin can't do this to him"
"Can you tell me how and why he disappeared? I think you know well. Do you know where he is now?"
"That is a story for another day"
"Ugh! You're so frustrating" She groans frustrated making him chuckles.
"What make you so sure that Rush is coming back?"
"Because he promised me he would" He replied and she nodded.
"How is your song coming along?"
"Ugh! Just whatever!"
"You should hurry up...now that the dating article is out things are gonna become noisy. Viola is collaborating with us for the album also, shooting is probably gonna start very soon"
"How is she like, Viola?"
"Don't wanna talk about it. Tell me where were you throughout. Didn't see you around"
"Ohh...had something to do. Busy sorting it out"
"Be careful out there. You know what next time you're going out tell me I'll accompany you"
"My company can be a little dramatic" she winks.
"Looking forward to it" He tweaked her nose
"Ow!" She slapped her hands pouting.
"Stop behaving girly"
"I'm not! I'mma man!"
"Exactly..." Ash focused on her staring without taking his eyes off. Addison squirm finding it uncomfortable and awkward.
"Why...are you staring?" She asked slowly.
"I think I just figured something out newbie"
"What...?"
"Something totally absurd"
"Is it bad?"
"Can I ask you something?"
"Yeah" she smiles and swiftly, he leans towards her. Her smile was replaced with a sudden gasps and she blinked. Her heart began racing intermittently at the sudden proximity, and a familiar exciting feeling surge through her. Instantaneously, the atmosphere became tense.
"Ash..." She called as he stared at her deeply with a different expression on.
"I love how my name sounds on your lips"
"Uh...?"
"Can I...kiss you Newbie?" He asked taking her off guard, a sudden gasp leaves her mouth, her eyes blinked in shock. For a while she thought maybe she heard wrong until he repeated himself.
"I want to kiss you...Aiden"
