Bestfriends Shouldn’t Know How You Taste Chapter 98
Ashley‘s pov
He pass his clean hand down his face, still eyes ring into my soul. When he removes some shaving
cream off his nose and mouth, he yells. “Ashley!”
My eyes widen, smirking I made a beeline for the door. “Clean up and meet me downstairs in ten
minutes!” I yelled over my shoulder, then mmed the door shut behind me. I rushed into my roomand
locked the door behind me quickly. I whirled around resting my back on the door, sighing. I really am
out of shape. I‘m nning to bring him to the boxing gym and I haven‘t been there in years. What if I
can‘t even lift a five pound weight? That would be embarrassing. I hummed, biting my lips in thought,
lifting my head to stare at the ceiling. This could actually be a good idea, it could certainly jolt some of
his memories. ke loved boxing once and maybe that could be what he needs right now to get back
his memories.Nodding to myself I proceed to get ready for today.
“When you said we have a whole day ahead of us, I really didn‘t think you‘d bring me to a boxing gym.”
ke murmurs, tilting his head to look out of the window.
I killed the engine, smiling to myself as I remembered the fond memories we shared there. “I thought it
would be fun to bring you to a ce you loved before losing your memories.” He turns to me. I
continued but this time a smirk is now on my lips. “Besides we both are out of shape. Could use some
exercises.”
He narrows his blue eyes, ring at me. “I haven‘t forgotten how you woke me up this morning, so
don‘t add more to your punishment.” He rolls his eyes.
I raised a brow now amused. Oh how the tables have turned. “Punishment? Do tell how my husband
wishes to punish me?” I couldn‘t help the giggles that slipped past my lips. He leans back in the car
seat and stared out of the windshield in thought. “Well I haven‘t thought about a punishment as yet. But
don‘t worry I will get you back. I could still taste that damn shaving cream.” He made a disgusted face,
shivering.
Iughed, opened the door and stepped out. “Welle on, let‘s go.” I nudged my head to the
gym.
Grumbling something incoherent under his breath he opens the door and steps out. We both close the
doors simultaneously. I walked around the car to his side and gave him a smile.
“How about I buy you a banana chocte milkshake on our way back for your forgiveness? Will you
forgive me then?” I asked. I will admit now I felt bad. The taste of shaving cream definitely wasn‘t
pleasant.
He looked to be in thought before he smirks down at me. “Hmmm a banana chocte
milkshake sounds good but sorry I‘m still going to punish you.” He winks, turns around and proceeds to
the gy?n.
“So does that mean you still won‘t forgive me even when I buy it?” I shout behind him.
“Nope.” He yells over his shoulder and opens the gym doors.
Kicking the road and muttering a curse I followed after him. Punishment? I highly doubt ke would
hurt me but still the thought of being punished by him both scared and excited me.
I rolled my eyes. I read too many erotica novels in my high school years. I opened the gym doors and
entered. It was different from how it was years back. More workout equipment and the walls now were
painted ck. Also the boxing ring in the middle of the room was now way bigger than the one before.
Austin had upgraded this ce. I walked over to ke who had been standing there, transfixed by the
two males boxing in the ring. The way his eyes calcted their moves, the way he followed their
movements with intrigue let me know that the ke before was still here and not far away. I went to
stand beside him, crossing my arms over my chest. He didn‘t seem like he noticed my presence beside
him, entranced by the teen boys. “Keep your legs apart Leo.” It was Austin, beside the ring, watching
the teens jab at each other. 2
“You know this used to be you back in the day.” I smiled softly remembering how happy he always
seemed to be whenever he was either training or in a fight. He turns to me, his blue eyes burning at the
side of my face. “Somehow I believe you, just by seeing those boys jab at eachother makes me feel
connected to this ce. I can‘t really exin it but I feel like this was a part of me.” 1
I nodded, fully understanding him.” It was.” I turn to him and give him a soft smile.
He sends me a dazzling smile, one that made me realize bringing him here was the best decision I
made.
“Look what we have here, the ‘it‘splicated couple thatter on got married.” A loud boisterous
voice yells.
I turn to Austin who was already walking over to us. “Are you still not going to let us live this one
down?” 1
He shakes his head. “Nah you two deserve all the teasing you get.” When he‘s beside us he pulls
ke into a hug. “You may have not remembered me boy and I am sorry this has happened to you but
I‘m happy you‘re recovering. Kinda miss you in the ring, lost a good bit of money when you left.” He
joked at the end and pped ke‘s back yfully before letting him go. 1 “A get better soon speech
would‘ve been so much better Austin. Greedy old man.” I snorted.
He turns to me and scowls. “I just turned forty five a month ago Ashley, I‘m not that old.” He grumbles.
“Yeah that‘s not old at all grandpa. Why don‘t you have a seat before you break your back from
standing for so long?” I giggled. ke chuckles beside me.
I don‘t think it‘s even physically possible to break one‘s back by just standing but the look of anger on
Austin‘s face makes me not feel like aplete idiot.
Austin narrows his eyes, ring at me.” You know I had much rather you back when you were still in
high school, not as talkative as you are now. The only downfall was that you were following ke like a
lost puppy.” Now it was my turn to re at him. “I did not!” I argued.
There was a loud thud and we all turned our heads to stare at the ring. One of the boys had fallen. He
looked fine judging by how quickly he got back up. “Leo try not punching Harper too hard next time, this
is just practice!” Austin yells then turns back to ke, sighing while pinching between his eyebrows.
Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!
“You were so much better to train than these two. Honestly I miss you kid.” Austin admits.” And the
money you brought in too.” He shrugs when I send him a fierce re.
ke stares at the two boys, his eyes not once leaving them. Finally he tears his eyes away and looks
at Austin. “I think I want to try.”
“Yeah no.” Was my quick answer. ke still had a head injury and his doctor was very strict with what
he should and shouldn‘t do. Fighting was definitely the first on the list for what he shouldn‘t do.
“Ohe on it‘s not like he could get injured. How about he just punch a few punching bags then I take
him in the ring to show him the basics? Not too extreme ofcourse.” Austin suggested.
I shook my head. ke turns to me, his eyes pleading. I tear my eyes away not wanting to get sucked
into those blue swirls of his and give in. “Come on Ashley, you heard him, just the basics. I promise I
won‘t get hurt.” He pleaded. “Yeahe on Ashley.” Austin pleads. I sighed. Perhaps bringing him here
wasn‘t such a good idea afterall
