Ashley

Ronnie's POV

"You fucked Ashley Green? Score!" said Michael as we sat in our backyard.

"No, not score," I muttered.

Michael just stared at me. "Not? What the hell are you talking about? Ronnie, she's gorgeous! Who wouldn't want to tap that?"

I sighed and looked at the grass. "It's complicated."

He blinked several times. "Complicated?"

"Michael, I didn't want to fuck her. Something just...I don't know, took over me."

"Whoa. You didn't want to fuck her? Are you insane? Every girl you've been with, that's all you ever did!"

"I know, I know. It's just...different this time. Look, I don't wanna talk about it." I stood and turned to go inside. Michael grabbed my leg.

"We're going to."

I sighed and sat back down. "I think I've become a sex fiend."

"Sex fiend."

"Sex fiend. All I can think about when I'm around girls is doing them. Ashley....Ashley's different," I replied.

He stared at me, stumped.

"I don't know! Like I said, it's complicated.." This time when I stood up, I actually did leave. Michael didn't try and stop me. I stormed through the house and out the front door. I started walking down the block. It was 7 P.M on a Sunday night in Las Vegas, but I didn't care. I kept walking until I saw something that startled me. "Max?" I asked, seeing Max standing in a garage.

"Hey," he said, turning to me, waving.

"Hi. What are you doing?"

He looked at a car behind him then back at me. "Fixing my car."

"You live here?" I lifted both my eyebrows.

He nodded.

I blinked a couple of times, then walked forward. "Nice ride," I said, eyeing his car.

He laughed and said, "Thanks."

We talked for a little bit, but then I stated, "I should get going." I started walking home. Why did Max have to be so cool? He could never find out about what I did to Ashley. Why did I feel so bad about that? Usually when I had sex with girls, there was nothing to it. I stopped walking.

Maybe that was it. This time, it wasn't just some random girl at a party, or my most recent hook-up. Maybe I actually had feelings for Ashley. I looked over my shoulder at Max. He smiled and waved. This was going to be harder than I thought.
