Chapter 17 - Temptations

At the close of school hours, Ashley's escort had come for her. On her way out of the school, she spotted Mr. Andy and tried waving to him, but he acted like he didn't see her, which had Ashley confused, but she decided not to put much thought to it.

Lily, who was apparently standing at another end, noticed how Mr. Andy shunned Ashley, putting her on the edge to know what must have happened between the both of them.

She immediately followed Mr. Andy, who headed to his office. Reaching there, she found the door open with Andy inside, packing his things into his bag, and she immediately rushed into the office and locked the door behind them.

Mr. Andy was drawn by the creaking of the door, and he turned to see it was Lily.

He was about to ask her what she was doing in his office when she hushed him and walked seductively to where he was standing, putting her hands on his lips. She placed her lips on his and they were both locked in a steamy kiss.

Kissing Lily, the only thing he could think about was the passionate moment he shared with Ashley. His fingers were placed firmly on Lily's butt, pulling her close, but his head only spelled out Ashley's name.

They stopped after a while, and Lily said, "I know you have missed me, my lips, my kisses. Andy, how do I explain to you that I have missed you the same? I'd like you to come over to my house this evening, to make up for lost time." With that, she bit her lip in an alluring way and left his office.

Andy stood mesmerized at how he could only see Ashley. He was already embarrassed enough that he tried to get close to her, and now having dirty thoughts about her perplexed him.

Ashley couldn't focus on either books or the competition that night. She laid on her bed, thinking of what could have happened if Hannah didn't knock on the door.

Hannah's words also pierced her deeply. Ashley felt bad for how her friend treated her, and at the same time, the thoughts of what she said about her feelings for Mr. Andy were unavoidable.

"Why will Hannah say such a thing, but then why am I so happy about it at the same time? Could I really like Mr. Andy?" These were the questions Ashley asked herself as she reminisced the moments she has spent with Mr. Andy so far.

Mr. Andy, on the other hand, sat at home sulking. After a lot of thinking, he decided to take Lily's offer. He wasn't quite sure as to his true intentions behind going to see Lily, but all he knew was that he would do anything to get Ashley off his head.

He managed to drive down to Lily's house even in his drunk state.

Lily opened the door to see drunk Mr. Andy at her step. She took him inside and placed him on the couch.

Strangely, she started giving him more alcohol, hoping he would get more drunk. After a while, she took off the coat she was wearing, and under the coat was a short red night gown.

When Lily noticed Mr. Andy was already out, she proceeded to make love with him in his drunken condition, aware of the fact that he wouldn't be able to stop her in his state.

Ashley tried to sleep that night but couldn't stop thinking about Mr. Andy. She called up Hannah, who reluctantly picked up her call after she was so rude to her in school.

"Hannah, why did you say the things you said earlier on?" Ashley said.

"Did you really call me to start fighting again?" Hannah said.

"It's not that, Hannah. I really want to know. You said I have fallen in love with Mr. Andy. What makes you so sure? I mean, how do I know if it's true or not that I have indeed fallen in love with him?" Ashley asked.

Hannah sighed, clichéd from Ashley's continuous discussions about Mr. Andy, and said, "Ashley, you're not a kid, so you should know this. The way you look at him, the way you get nervous whenever he is around, the lengths you went through just to get him back, Ashley, it's obvious you like him, and if you want to find out, think more on the times you spent together. You'll know the truth."

Ashley took Hannah's advice and began reminiscing the moments she was with Mr. Andy and how it made her feel. "So it's true, I indeed love Mr. Andy," Ashley said after coming to a conclusion.

She was puzzled and at the same time excited at the result. She jumped on her bed, hugging her pillow as she blushed uncontrollably, repeating the same line, "I love Mr. Andy," over and over again.

Trying to make her dirty move on Mr. Andy, Lily hopped on the bed where he was laying, attempting to undress him. In his drunken state, he gave in as all he could see was Ashley in place of Lily.

She leaned in to kiss him, and as soon as their lips made contact, he came to the realization that it wasn't who he was thinking it would be. He opened his eyes to see Lily and he immediately pushed her away.

Lily fell to the other side of the bed, shocked at Mr. Andy's reaction, while he stood up to pack his belongings and staggered out of the room.

Seeing this, Lily ran after him and screamed out, "Andy, where are you going? Please don't go, don't leave me like this again, please."

Even with her pleading, Mr. Andy ignored her and walked out of the house. He managed to get home even in his condition, and on getting home, the first person he could think about was Ashley. He had no idea when he picked up his phone to call her.

Ashley, still very much awake from the excitement of realizing her feelings for Mr. Andy, was elated to see his call, and she immediately picked up without a second thought.

"Hey Ashley, I just wanted to check if you were alright," Mr. Andy said.

"I'm okay, are you fine?" Ashley asked. "Yeah, I'm okay," Mr. Andy replied.

There was a sudden silence, so much to say, but neither Mr. Andy nor Ashley could find the words for their questions.

"Okay, Goodnight then," Mr. Andy said. Ashley replied, "Good night."

From the way Mr. Andy spoke to her over the phone, she had a sudden assurance that he could probably love her back, which made her determined to tell him how she felt.
