Chapter 24|Relax

Leo didn't reply immediately but later swallowed and gave me a painfully large grin. "He's in the first lounge downstairs," he replies. "Have fun okay? But not too much fun, it's the first date," he tells me with a wink.

We both say our goodbyes and I leave to find my date.

Once I make it to the lounge Asher is on one of the long white sofa's with Caleb and Michael on other seats but there is one other person there seating next to Caleb. They all don't notice me until I move alot closer.

Asher's eyes widen slightly and a smirk pulls at his lips. He stands from his seat and walks up to me, "I'm surprised you didn't wear sweats for this," he says with a smile.

I roll my eyes shove him slightly, he laughs. "You look great Bianca," Caleb says with a smile and Michael nods in agreement.

I thank them just as my eyes go to the girl beside Caleb. She looked familiar.

"They're not lying tho," Asher whispers from beside me, gaining my attention. "You look beautiful," he says with a smile.

I can't help but smile too, "thank you," I reply and look down at his clothes. Asher has certainly become stylish during the year. All I ever see him in these days are nicely paired designer clothing, or is it that he just happens to look good in everything. "You look great," I tell him.

He smiles wider, "oh, I know." He speaks again, "but this really isn't my style, I'm more of a hoodie and tight suit person," he admits.

I chuckle, "oh, I know."

"Hey," a small voice pipes in. We both turn our heads. It's the girl that sat with Caleb, "I'm so sorry for interrupting. I'm Emilia, Caleb's girlfriend," she introduces to me and brings out her hand.

I happily shake it with a smile, "I knew you looked familiar," I say with a small chuckle. "I'm Bianca. Caleb was just talking about you the other day. He kept whining and whining about how much he missed you. He wouldn't shut up about it, believe me," I say.

"Hey! I was not!" Caleb interferes hotly, appearing beside Emilia.

She laughs, "aww baby. That's so cute!" Emilia gushed and gives him a kiss on the cheek.

His cheeks taint pink and he grins childishly, "oh yeah, I remember now. I was screaming 'i miss Emilia' all over the house. And... And was talking about you every five seconds," he says, but I know for a fact he's only saying that to get more kisses.

Smiling to myself, I turn to Asher who had his eyes on his phone. "We'll be leaving now. It was nice to meet you Emilia, can't wait to get to know you," I tell her and leave the mansion doors with Asher.

"Did you bring your swimming shorts?" I ask him as we walk to his parked sports car.

"Yup," he says. Once we reach the car he turns back to me, "also, I hope it's okay I have security following us, they're going to be around the perimeter of the location of our date. It's for our safety," he admits.

I frown slightly but decide it's alright, "sure. As long as they don't bother us." He smiles and pulls open the door for me. "You don't have to do that," I tell him with a grin.

He shrugs, "I want to," he says and speed walks to the other side of the car.

Once we're both in I notice how nicely styled his hair is.

"You really went all out," I tell him.

"Jasmine literally threatened me to look my 'best' for the date," he says and I laugh.

"That woman is dangerous," I say.

"Facts."
