The CEO’s Perfect Mistake

Megan's POV

The tiredness that I felt was gone the moment I saw Ashton's beautiful smile that always makes my heart melt, and I can't control the rapid beating of my heart as he walked closer to me. As usual, he looked so adorable and handsome, and even until now, I still can't believe he became interested in me. Ashton strides towards me with confidence. He was wearing cargo shorts and a plain gray t-shirt. Even if he was wearing simple clothes, he still looked like a hot celebrity that I couldn't stop myself from gaping at his handsome face. His beautiful smile broadened when he caught me staring at his lips, and I can feel my face flushed, and I felt shy thinking he realized I was hoping he would kiss me again.

He never kisses me again, and how I wish I didn't run away from him that night. But I was shocked that time since we are still strangers to each other, unlike now that we talk each other lately.

"Hey!" He greeted me the moment we faced each other, and I can feel the tremblings of my knees, and I wonder when I am going to stop reacting this way towards Ashton Pritzgold, It feels like I couldn't control myself every time he is around.

"Hi!" I replied when I finally found my voice.

"Meg, I know you have another part-time job tomorrow, even if it is Saturday, but can I take you somewhere tonight?" He asked, and he looked so cute when he gave me his puppy eyes.

"It depends on where you are going to take me. Because if it is far away, I can't because I need to wake up early in the morning." I said.

"Well, it is a bit far, but the place is still part of the city." He replied, and I can feel the disappointment in his voice.

"Maybe we can go tomorrow after my work," I said, and his face lit up.

"Wow, that is great. I was hoping to see you tomorrow. I mean, I want to pick you up in the morning before my practice and bring you to the venue of your part-time job." He said, and I smiled at his words, and I can't stop myself from feeling so excited.

"You don't need to do that to me, Ashton. I am not your girlfriend." I said, and I want to cover my mouth. Why do I need to tell him that? And I felt the knots on my stomach when he moves closer to me, and his intense gaze penetrates my entire body.

"Then make me your boyfriend, Megan. You know how much I want you to be my girl. Please, say yes so we can be an official couple so that I can kiss you again." He said.

"You already kiss me, Ashton." I declared, and his face softened.

"I know, and even though I felt so happy that I have tasted your sweet lips, and I don't have regrets since the moment I kissed you, it was the most magical feeling I have ever experienced, but I felt guilty because I stole your first kiss, and I know I should have waited until you accepted me as your boyfriend before I kiss you. And don't worry, I won't kiss you until you accept me as your girlfriend." He said, and now I understand why he avoided kissing me because he thought about my reactions. I want to tell Ashton that I don't mind if he will kiss me again, even if we are not yet a couple, but Ashton's words made me realized he is sweet, and I like his logic about kissing me even if I felt disappointed about it because I miss tasting his lips.

I am heavily breathing as he continued to stare at my face with too much intensity, which made my entire body trembled, and it made me feel so conscious. I am lost for words because I want to become Ashton's girlfriend, but I am still having my doubts, especially after I have experienced the cruelty of his fans, especially Lauren. And most of all, I need to make sure that having a boyfriend during my senior year will not affect my scholarship, and I am tempted to say yes, but I still need to weigh things over.

"It is okay, Megan, if you can't answer me right now, as I have told you before, I am willing to wait. And I understand that you are having second thoughts of accepting me because of those girls who continue to harass you, and I want to apologize that I wasn't able to protect you from them every time they made a scene." He declared, and I smiled at him.

"You don't need to apologize since it wasn't your fault anyway. I am sorry that I can't answer you right now because there are a lot of things that I need to consider, and I hope you understand." I replied, and he took my hand.

"It is okay, Meg, as long as you will allow me to know you more, and to hold you like this and to pick you up in your house every morning going to school, and take you home after your work, it would be enough for now, because for me you are already my girlfriend." He said, and I giggled.

"And I just want to ask, please don't date anyone aside from me." He said, and I smiled, and I can't stop myself from teasing him.

"And why I can't? You are not yet my boyfriend, remember?" I asked, and his face fell.

"Megan, please, don't do it because I don't want to damage my pretty face because if it happens, I will beat any guy who will go on a date with you." He said, and I look at him in the eyes before I speak.

"How can I date another guy when you are a handful already," I said, and he laughed.

He pulled me with him, and we walk to his car holding hands. And he opened the passenger's door for me, and I get inside, and the moment he fastened my seat belt, I take a deep breath since I need to stop myself from pulling his head and bring him closer to me to Initiate a kiss. 

Every time we are together, it feels like time passes too quickly. And by the time we reach our driveway, I want to spend more time with Ashton.

"Thank you, Ashton, for taking me home," I said.

"Always my pleasure, Meg." He replied, I didn't climb out of the car immediately, and we talked some more, and I realized I could speak with Ashton until morning because there was never a dull moment with him, and I hate myself that I couldn't stop myself from thinking about my first kiss. We said good night to each other, and he assisted me in getting out of his car. And he hugged me and kissed my forehead before he goes back to his SUV And driveway from our driveway.

"Wow, it seems we now have a service every time we have a part-time job," Alice said after Ashton sent us to the church where we will help her aunt to arrange the flowers for a wedding. Then we will also proceed to the reception to decorate the entire place, and after that, we will go to another church to do the same thing. I am so grateful for Alice's Aunt, and I also call Aunt Sonia for giving us work every weekend, and I felt sad that how can I give Ashton time if we become an official couple since I have part-time jobs during weekends.

"Alice, Megan, thank you again for your services." Aunt Sonia said after she gave us our salary for the day, and I was beaming from ear to ear since we've got a big tip.

"Always keep up the good work, girls, so you will always receive a tip. I know you are both good. That is why my clients admired your works, whatever kind of part-job I will throw at you." Aunt Sonia said, and I always admire her not only because she is beautiful, but because of her expertise in handling the clients, and she has connections, and that is why most of the time we served social gatherings during the weekend from decorations to washing of the dishes. We don't choose jobs; that is why Aunt Sonia always puts us on her list.

"And girls, I have good news for you, your weekends for next month is full already, and the client paid in advance. So, I will make an online transfer to your bank account and paid your salary in advance." Aunt Sonia said, and I can't stop myself from feeling sad, since I was thinking of having a date with Ashton, but I can't say no to Aunt Sonia since I don't want to disappoint her, and we are paid in advance.

"And girls, you should be present during the entire weekends next month because the client said only the two of you and no reliever. Well, what can I say? You are both excellent in whatever kind of job I assigned to you. No wonder this client only wants the two of you." Aunt Sonia added, and I can tell she looked so happy with our performance. 

I said goodbye to Alice when her boyfriend picked her up, and I waited for Ashton to come, and I was shocked when I found Zachary driving his car instead of him.

"Hello, Meg." He said the moment he climbed out of Ashton's car.

"Where is Ashton, Zach?" I asked, and I can't stop myself from feeling nervous.

"He has a minor injury, but you don't need to worry about him, Megan. He is fine.." He said, and I felt so anxious about Ashton; what if it is not a minor injury, I know many have damaged their brain because of football, and this time I understood I care about Ashton as I can feel my entire body trembled with fear as I realized I want to be his girlfriend even If I have to deal with those cheerleaders and the big difference in our status in life.
