Heat

Chapter 13: Heat

That night, Ashely sat in her room debating whether or not she should go check on Jake. It wasn't that she petty him and she surely didn't want to make a fool of herself, but she knew how he felt. The longing for that fatherly love and care, Ashely knew exactly how Jake felt.

"Come on, Ash, you can do it," she said trying to boost her confidence before heading over to Jake's room that was right opposite hers.

Ashely stood in front of Jake's bedroom door before taking a deep breath, but as she did so, she smelt smoke and to be precise, cigarette smoke. She furrowed before sniffing the air to confirm that the scent was right before knocking on the door, "Jake, are you in there?" she called out but there was no reply, "well, here goes nothing," she mumbled before opening the door, which was surprisingly open. 

As she entered, Ashely quickly fanned away the smoke that filled the room, "Jake, open a goddamn window for Christ's sake," she said walking over to open his window causing the smoke to fade away.

His right arm rested comfortably behind his head causing his bicep to pop, while his bare, tattooed chest hovered gently as he breathed. Ashely's eyes traveled down to his defined chocolate abs that made her mouth watered.

"I don't need your petty, Ashely," he said finally turning his attention to her, "And that's not why I'm here, Jake, can you seriously not be an asshole for once," she said feeling slightly annoyed, "Then, why are you here, Ashely?" Jake asked before sitting up facing her as Ashely stood there uncomfortable. 

"Don't do that, you came here to say something, then just say it," he said growing irritated which pissed Ashely's off, "Yeah, I would if you didn't hate me so much," she said as Jake stared back at her and
