Chapter 146 - His Charm



Megan\'s POV

"How was your talk with Ashton?" Alice asked the moment I got back inside our cottage, and I was surprised to find her waiting for me with a wine glass in her hand, and I couldn\'t utter a single word as I listened to the throbbing of my heart as I can still feel the aftermath of our made out session in the garden. And yes, it still feels like I am a teenager all over again.

I still blush the same way, and with regards to Ashton, I can still feel the hammering of my heart every time I hear his name, and right now, I felt giddy, and I could no longer control the muscles of my face to smile on its own as I gave Alice a wide grin.

"Wow! I hate Ashton; how could he make you smile that way? I have been trying to cheer you up for the last eight years, yet, I haven\'t seen you smile that way." She said, and I stopped smiling at her.

"You know that is not true; how about I am with Axel, you can see me smiling this way," I responded.

"Yeah, but it was different now; you were glowing again, Megan, and I couldn\'t believe Ashton Pritzgold has that power to do that; well, even celebrities are seeking his attention; no wonder you will also feel that way." She declared, and I couldn\'t stop myself from scowling when I heard the word celebrities, and even if Ashton confessed to me that he was still in love with me, I couldn\'t stop myself from feeling so jealous, especially to his fiancee.

"Hey, I don\'t intend to ruin your beautiful night, Megan, I was only joking, but it seems you were so affected by what I said." She added when she noticed the expression on my face.

"It is not about what you have said, Alice. It was about the decision I made, and I realized I was such a fool about believing Ashton again. And I am not even sure if what he had said was true because I haven\'t heard from the news that it was over between him and Claire. And I don\'t know if my decision to give him another chance was right for Axel and me." I declared as I took a deep breath.

My best friend was looking at me, and I know by the way she looked at me, she found it hard to tell me what was on her mind since I knew Alice didn\'t want me to get hurt with what she was about to say to me.

"Why, are you back being together?" She asked, and I shook my head.

"And why do you look so stressed about it, Meg? What kind of decision did you make that made you so worked up?" She adds another question.

"I told him already he is the father of Axel and about Abigail, and he wanted to be there for our son, and I think I was being irrational again; I should have made him suffer first," I answered.

"Megan, I have witnessed how you live your life without Ashton, even if you become successful with your career, and you are now one of the hottest CEO in the country, and I could say you made all your dreams come true. But as your best friend, I felt sad and hurt because the more you become successful, the more you become lonely and miserable." She declared, and I could see the concern on her face.

"Don\'t let your mind take over what your heart wants, Meg, because you will only be more unhappy. You are not a fool if you will give Ashton another chance. I was also angry with your ex Megan because of what he had done to you. But I understood that he will always be the only person who can give you the kind of happiness that you have been looking for, and I could say Ashton was also a victim of his father\'s cruelty." Alice added.

"I know Ashton was sincere when he told me that he is still in love with you, Megan, and your ex chose to shatter your heart eight years because he only wanted to protect you, and his only mistake was he never told you anything about what his father had done." Alice continues.

"And I could see you weren\'t the only one who suffered, Meg. He was in pain too, and right now, I guess there is nothing wrong if you will lower down your pride." She added, and her forehead furrowed when she looked at her wristwatch while I was taken aback by her words.

"We should go to bed now, Meg; we need to wake up early tomorrow since I know you are excited to have a yoga class." She said, and I smiled at her.

"Thank you, Alice, for not judging me." I blurted out.

"Come on, Meg, I am your best friend. And even if you will make the poorest decision, I will always be here fo you, as long as I know it will not harm you. And who I am to judge your strong feelings for Ashton, Meg. And I am glad you give yourself a chance to be happy again." She said while she held and squeezed my hand.

"Did he kiss you?" She asked, and I blushed right away as I remembered the hot kiss I shared with Ashton, and I could feel my face warm when I remembered I was sitting on his lap.

"You don\'t need to answer me, Megan. The way you blushed is enough to tell me everything I need to know." She said, and I smiled at her.

"How was it?" She asked, and I could feel my face turn redder.

"It was perfect, Al, more wonderful than I can ever imagine," I replied, and she giggled.

"I am so happy for you, Meg, and I guess you will not be needing me anymore since you have him back." She muttered.

"Don\'t say that Alice, you know I will always need you in my life. Besides, we are not back being together yet, and I told him it will not be easy to win Axel and me since I am still hurting; I need to heal my broken heart first before I can accept him again." I said.

"Fair enough, but I can\'t believe you will tell him that after allowing him to kiss you so many times." She said as I could see the disappointment on her face.

"Why did you know he kissed me many times?" I asked, and she giggled.

"Megan, you can\'t hide anything from me, and I know that look; it is not something you should be embarrassed about as long as you had fun." She responded.

"Of course, I did, and I enjoyed my time with him, Al." I declared, and my best friend beamed at me.

I slept like a baby for the first time after a long time, and I realized I was thinking about my daughter without pain in my heart anymore, and I can\'t deny I sleep while touching my lips as I relive the kisses I shared with Ashton in the garden.

The following day I was surprised when I saw Ashton and Zachary enter the yoga studio, and I couldn\'t stop my heart from beating so fast. My heart was going wild when Aston winked at me, and I could no longer concentrate on what to do next even if I were listening to the yoga instructor because I couldn\'t deny every time he was around, I would lose my focus.

I didn\'t know they both like yoga. Many today\'s men are now interested in yoga since it could help relax one\'s mind and relieve the body from any stress; that is why I always have yoga with Alice every time she comes into my house.

Everyone in the studio, especially the women, looked at Ashton curiously. I could tell they were wondering what is he doing here in the retreat center, and I couldn\'t stop myself from peeking glances at him. When I caught him gazing at me, I suddenly felt conscious, and when our yoga teacher found Ashton staring at me most of the time, she asked Ashton to settle beside me, and in an instant, he spread his yoga mat beside me without talking to me.

And I stifled a laugh when he started stretching his body, and I could tell he joined the yoga session because of me, and I found it so cute. I felt so happy as I did the yoga steps. Still, when we were finished, I felt terrible when almost all the women in the studio, including our instructor, circled him around, and he only waved his hand at me as he talked with them. I felt devastated he didn\'t speak to me as if nothing happened between us last night.

"Hey, why do you look like that? You are upset that Ashton\'s fans couldn\'t stop taking pictures with him?" Alice asked as we made our way back into our cottage, and I felt glad that they informed us last night our breakfast would be delivered into our cute little cottage, or else I would be scowling in the dining hall even if I am just finished with our mediation.

"Yeah, and I hate myself for feeling this way; I expected him to come near me after our yoga, but I was only disappointed, and I think it is not a good idea to give him another chance because he will only end up hurting me all over again." I declared.

"Hey, those girls are Ashton\'s fans, Meg; you can\'t just get jealous with them. If you want to give Ashton another chance, you have to accept that things like that will happen, you are not yet back being together, and you are already feeling that way." She responded, and I know my best friend had a point, and before I could answer her, I heard someone knocking softly outside our door, and I suddenly felt hungry as I realized our food was there. 

I walked towards the door, and my eyes widened when I found Ashton on our doorstep with flowers in his hands, and I could tell he made an effort to cut those flowers from the garden.

"Good morning, Meg; these flowers are for you." He said, and I could feel the knots on my stomach when he smiled at me. He looked so boyish as he stood in front of me wearing only his running pants and a fitted shirt that I could see the bulge of his bicep, and I couldn\'t stop myself from looking at his hard chest down to his rock-hard stomach, and I suddenly felt shy when I realized I was checking him out.

And when I raised my head, I found him looking at me with an intensity that sends electricity down into my spine, and I couldn\'t stop myself from biting my lower lip when I saw him staring into my mouth.

"Stop doing that, Megan, or else I could no longer stop myself from kissing you again.." He said, and his sexy masculine voice made me realize I would find it hard to resist Ashton\'s charm.
