Dan's POV

"Ashley!"

"Daniela!"

People turn their head as I rush into the classroom and tackle Ash into the ground. I don't know whether they stare because we act like a fool rolling on the floor like apes or because we call each other with our diva names.

"Stop it, Dan. You act like I've been gone for a month instead of a few days," he laughs while I cling to him like a sloth.

"Don't ever leave me again," I pout and give him my best puppy eyes, "it's really boring here without you."

Ash might think that I'm only joking, hugging him tightly as if he'd vanish if I let him go. Yet the truth is that I actually always have this constant fear that Ash, as my only friend, one day will leave me too.

We finally get up from the floor before the teacher comes and gives us detention for acting like a pre-schooler.

"Boring? Really?" Ash quirks his eyebrow and looks at me with an accusing look, "from what I heard, you've been busy enough to get a boyfriend."

Being the receiver of Ash's disappointed face makes me feel so guilty. The guy is capable to make even the most innocent guy feels like a cold-blooded killer with one look.

"Can we talk about this later?" I plea quietly since I can see people start getting even more interested in eavesdropping our conversation once Ash mentions my new boyfriend. These people don't need more encouragement to spread stupid gossip around school.

Ash looks like he's going to argue, but once I give him my pleading look, which Brock told me that looked more like a constipated look than a pleading look, he gives in. The teacher chooses the right timing and comes into the classroom, silencing the whole class immediately.

I can't focus during the class since my mind is preoccupied with the anticipation of having a date with Ryan tonight. I try to remember every piece of nice clothes that I have and decide which one I'll wear on my date with Ryan. Should I show some skin? Nah. My brothers will kill me.

By the time the bell rings, I've chosen around ten outfits to wear tonight, and none of them seems good enough to wear. I want to look good in front of Ryan. God knows that boy is hot as hell, and I'm afraid that one day he'll wake up and realize that he can get someone much better than me.

"So?"

Ash's impatient voice brings me back to the reality.

"What?" I ask back dumbly.

He rolls his eyes, realizing that I honestly have no idea what he's talking about.

"So what makes you want to date that stupid jerk? I thought you were smart enough not to do anything with him!"

I can't lie though. His words do hurt. I know that Ash doesn't like Ryan, and he has good reasons for that. But I want my best friend to support me with him since he's the first man that I've ever really liked. Can't Ash see that I long for someone to love me like Clayton loves him?
