The Love of my Life

chapter 24

Ashley's POV:

"I kissed Auston.."  I said crying

"When?" He asked

"It was the night of the stupid banquet... He came up to me and told me he missed me and wanted to be friends.. He said we were so good together and I was saying no..." I said crying and I couldn't even look at Patrick

"He made me look at you talking to a group of women and they were beautiful, tall, skinny models and he said you only wanted me for your image.. You are well established and you need me because I'm young and good for your ego.. You love the attention.." I said crying harder

"He just leaned in a kissed me and I didn't pull away at first.." I said stopping

Patrick was pissed... He had tears in his eyes and he shook his head no.. 

"I love you and I let Auston in my head, it meant nothing.." I said looking at Patrick

"Of course it did... He came to apologize to our parents.." He said pissed

"I'm sorry.." I said bawling

Patrick left the hotel room and I cried myself to sleep. I woke up and Patrick was in the other bed.

I got ready for the games today and so did he. He didn't say a word to me. He drove to the rink and we had everything in the rental car. We took third and our family came to the ice after and we took pictures. 

They were heading to the airport and we were going to be running in late. We got undressed and Q was there coaching the team, so he was taking our gear back to Chicago. Patrick drove to the airport and when we were waiting to return the rental car I asked, "Will you please talk to me?"

"I have absolutely nothing to say to you. Now we have to be in a foreign country for a week with our family... At least there are other people to talk to.." Patrick said

We were running through the airport and we got on the plane. I sat by Allison and in front of us was Jessica and Erica. The four parents were across from them and across from Allison and I were my sister, Jackie, Patrick, and my little brother.

We took off and I fell asleep and I told Allison everything. She felt so bad for me, but I deserved all of it.

I woke up and Patrick looked across at me.

I leaned my head up against the window and the turbulence was kinda bad. 

"Allison, will you come here?" My younger brother asked kinda scared

Patrick and Allison switched seats and I didn't even look at Patrick when he sat down. I fell back asleep and when I woke up, my head on on Patrick's shoulder and his arm was around me.

"Sorry.." I said sitting up

"The turbulence was making you it your head on the window. I pulled you over.." He said

He still cared.. "Thanks.." I said

We landed and we took a train to our hotel.

We had four rooms. One for my parents, one for Patrick's parents, a large suite for the siblings, and I walked into our room and my jaw dropped.

"The view is incredible.." I said

"It better be.. This is the room with the best view.." He said

I showered and changed clothes and we went out sightseeing as it was around noon.

That night, Patrick said, "I'm going to hang with your brother.."

He stayed in the room with the siblings and I cried in that massive bed. Allison came in and she hugged me. She crawled into bed and she said, "This room is amazing.."
