Ava’s POV The drive home was silent and peaceful and for a moment I could see a hint of niceness and softness in Mason’s countenance, but I didn’t comment on it.We soon got home and since I wasn’t sleepy yet, I made my way to the couch and sank into it before turning towards Mason who was already on his way upstairs.“Hey,” I called out hesitantly and he turned around slowly with his eyebrow arched questioningly. My eyes trailed over him slowly and once again, I marvelled over how good looking he was in the suit and how his slicked back hair made him appear impossibly hotter than he usually is. “Do you maybe wanna see a movie with me?” I forced the words past my lips and for a moment I could see his eyes widen comically in nothing but shock.To be fair, I’m as shocked as he is, cause seeing a movie together wasn’t a thing we’ve ever done before.A few minutes passed and no response came forth, making me conclude that he’d definitely act like the asshole that he naturally is by

Ava’s POV Getting up as early as I could, I’d decided I was going to make a really delicious breakfast for the both of us and that way I’d be able to apologise to Mason.After spending hours trying to get the varieties of food ready, I had the table set and the smile that escaped my lips when Mason got down from the stairs was noticeable.“Good Morning,” I said with a smile that faded when he walked past me like he didn’t see me. I stood frozen for the first few seconds before finally shaking myself out of the daze I got caught in.“I made breakfast.” I announced but he pointedly ignored me, looking around the cupboards and picking out a pan, along with the required ingredients to prepare pancakes.I felt my cheeks burn and my blood boiled and I clenched my fist in anger and humiliation. I was fuming and I made sure that he noticed it.“What is wrong with you?” I finally brought myself to demand but he only raised an eyebrow and shrugged, “I decided to be nice enough to make break

Ava’s POV I spent the whole day thinking about Mason and was unable to stop myself from thinking about him. The day went by quicker than I expected it to and we both walked to our respective rooms.I woke up early and had thought I was going to be earlier than Mason but I got downstairs to see him up already, he was on call with our parents.“Oh, she’s here.” He announced with a smile in his voice and I walked to the laptop screen to see Danny and my mum.I had no idea what they’d talked about for them to be grinning from ear to ear but I joined in and the call went on for a while before they had to go.We both sat on the couch to watch a movie and for the first time, we didn’t argue on what to watch. Instead, we enjoyed watching what the other chose.After the movie, we got ourselves engaged in a conversation and I found myself talking more than I usually do when my phone rang, making me stop talking.I took a peak to see that it was Nicole and with a smile, I excused myself to a

Ava’s POV I couldn’t ignore the melodious sound of the guitar playing and when I went to the balcony to check, there he was.Mason was the one playing the guitar and the way he held it was as though it was a really special guitar, his fingers trailing off the strings made my jaw drop in awe.Putting one foot in front of the other, I wanted to go near him but I knew how Mason could be. Going near him might just set him off and he’ll probably get mad at me for ruining his music.Turning, I tried to walk away when my dress got stuck on the door knob and I tripped, causing Mason to stop playing and making him turn to me.Why do clothes and door knobs usually pick out the wrong time to flirt with each other?I turned to look at Mason and I’d expected him to get mad at me and fume in rage about how I’d ruined his session but the glint in his eyes was one no one could ignore.He laughed at me instead and although I was embarrassed, hearing him laugh made me burst out in laughter.Tuggin

Ava’s POV Ignoring Mason didn’t go as I’d planned it, I didn’t think ignoring him would be so difficult but it was, because the moment I saw him, I felt myself calm at just the sight of him and I knew that I wanted to spend the rest of the day with him.I shouldn’t even be mad at him, he was only trying to keep me safe and away from predators, he’s older so he knew better.The crippling feeling of guilt soon starts to eat me up and I couldn’t help but just try to apologize and hope he accepts my apology.“I’m sorry for acting like a jerk the other day,” I apologized and Mason’s head sprung up as he lifted his gaze from his phone to meet mine.“It’s fine…”“No, No, it’s not fine because you were only trying to look out for me and I spoke to you rudely which I should've done so, no, it’s really not fine and stop acting like it is!” I immediately cut in before he could say another word.Anytime I try to apologize for something stupid that I’ve done he always makes it seem like I shoul
