Blind Without You (Part 2)
Ashley opened the door to her room and Marlo skittered and barked around her feet. She looked down at the little dog and smiled.
She then walked over to her bed, dropping her purse and keys onto the floor with a dull thud. She streahced her arms out and kicked off, landing on the bed in a belly-flop position. With her face pressed into the soft covers she kicked off her heels without looking, something she had gotten quite good at doing. Ashley sighed heavily, taking in what had just happened.
Ashley remember how soft Jackson's lips had felt against hers, how his hands were so gentle in her hair, how he had kissed her when she tried to leave. Ashley rolled herself over and laid on her back staring at the ceiling. She sighed, then look over to see Marlo bouncing up and down, attempting to get on the bed. Marlo then stopped bouncing an whined on the floor, trying to comfort her mommy.
"Come here little one." Ashley cooed as she scooped Marlo up, almost falling off the bed herself. Marlo jumped into Ashley's arms and settled down beside her, curled into her side. "Glad you'll always be there for me, my little girl." Ashley whispered to the dog, whom was now asleep.
Ashley looked up at the ceiling again and sighed. She loved Jackson, but he was right. Maybe she wasn't thinking straight.
Ashley closed her eyes. Vivid images of jackson were blurring through her mind, his lips, his hair, his body...
STOP!!
Ashley squeezed her eyes shut tighter, trying to erase the images, all she saw was him, jackson, everywhere.
"I have to stop this." she said aloud to herslef, Marlo stirred in her sleep but did not awaken. Ashley got up off the bed and headed to her suit case, reaching in for a pair of pajamas. She shot her hand into her bag and instead of pulling out pajamas, she pulled out Jackson's shirt. Smiling to herself Ashley threw the shirt on the bed and got up. She unclasped her bra and pulled it out through her sleeve, taking her shirt over her head she slipped on Jackson oversized shirt and smelt it. It smelt good. It smelt like him.
She slipped off her jeans and kicked them to the side, along with her shirt and bra.
Ashley climbed under the blankets after she had brushed her teeth and washed her face. Glancing in the mirror from time to time at her crazy rain-hair.
She grabbed her phone and checked her texts. Sitting there in her inbox was one from jackson. Her heart sped up as shes saw it.
opening it she read;
Night ash. Sweet dreams darlin'
Ashley didnt know what to respond to that, instead she turned her phone off and set it on the night stand, turning off the lights as she did so, always thinking of him.
