Chapter 7: Rich kid problems
I opened my eyes, and smelled a pungent smell of Dettol.(A disinfecting spray) WHAT?! I'M IN THE INFIRMARY? I jerked up into a sitting position and saw Ashton, his face was barely an inch in front of me and he had a straight face.
"What are you doing?!" I screamed and drew back, I could feel my face burning up.
"You could have been killed. I saved you, doofus." Ashton said.
" I am NOT a doofus!" I said, emphasising the 'not'. I looked away and thought," Should I thank him? He may be annoying but he did save me. Nah, that's just repayment for being a jerk."
"Earth to dimwit." Ashton said, waving his hand in front of my face. I pushed his hand away and said," I have a name, you know?"
Ashton's gaze lowered and he saw my name tag. I immediately covered it and turned away from him.
"Hm, Endellion. Interesting name. Means something like fire soul, right?" Ashton asked. I nodded and hastily got up. I felt a sharp pain in my right arm and sat back down. Ashton put his hands on my shoulders and said, " Seriously? Do you ever stop moving? Let me help you apply medication, it may help with the pain."
My eyebrows shot up and I asked," Why are you being nice to me? I thought you was my number one public enemy?" I did not believe my eyes. Ashton turned his head and his ears—they were crimson red! Nah, just an illusion. He must be dealing with some type of rich kids problems. Uncle may be rich, but I still have not gotten used to the lifestyle yet.
While Ashton was applying the medicine, I noticed that he had really long eyelashes. His eyes, which were in aquamarine, were in a really weird colour too.
Aquamarine.
It reminds me of the sea, the incident that happened a year ago flashed through my mind.
"No!" I shouted. I snapped back into reality and saw that I was in the infirmary in school. "You were in a daze just now. What happened?" Ashton asked. I shook my head and waved it off. Surely I could not tell him.
" Anyway, I called my men already. They have settled the criminal thing. A man that claimed to be your Uncle also face called you but you was still unconscious so I helped you pick the call up." Ashton said with the corners of his mouth going up.
My eyes widened and I shouted," What did you say?!"
"I'm your male companion." Ashton said with a rather straight face.
"WHAT?!" I screamed and my voice reverberated in the infirmary.
"Fine. I didn't say that. Why do you have such a big reaction,huh? " Ashton asked. I looked away and hoped I didn't blush.
In the infirmary, we had a get-to-know-you conversation and I learnt that Ashton was the heir of a Super large company, even bigger than Uncle's, and he was responsible to take over it. Wow, talk about more rich kids problems.
Although he's not as shitty as I thought he was, but he's still a jerk.
