Ashton held the cup of chilled coffee in his hand as he walked into Thomas' office. "Dude?" Thomas said as he looked up to him with an annoyed expression on his face. "What?" Ashton asked as he watched him, whizzing on his drink. "Freaking knock." Thomas berated. Ashton rolled his eyes at that. He has grown past that stage. "I apologize,apologize, sir." Hesaid this said this to him as he turned back and pretended to knock on the door. "Aren't you supposed to be working?" He asked him,him, and Ashton rolled his eyes. "I guess I'm too acquainted with my boss,, so he can let me be lazy about it." about it." Ashton said as he sipped on his drink. Thomas rolled his eyes in mock annoyance at him. "I was thinking about a collaboration." Ashton suggested. "Why don't we do something together?" Hesaid that, said that, and Thomas rolled his eyes at him. Ashton was in a good mood that day. "Go away, Pearce." Thomas muttered as he typed away on his laptop computer. "I am busy with work." H

"So what do you think we can do next?" Rebecca asked Myles from over the phone. She was still clad in her towel and her skin had long gone dried without her having to apply her serums and lotions on it. And how she hated applying her skin lotion on her dried skin. Now she was going to have to go back for another bath. Freaking perfect. She thought as her subconscious rolled her eyes. She hated that everytime she had something to do with Ashton, she ended up getting irritated and frustrated. This was no different from every other time. She was beginning to think that Ashton was some sort of wizard or something. Why did he always have to punish her even when he was not even trying to?"I guess now we just need to search for other ways to get at him then." Myles said, voicing out his thoughts. A thought came to Rebecca's thoughts. "And you," she said to him, Myles braced himself for whatever it was that was coming from her. "Why the hell did you not pick something legal from him? Pro

"Cheers!" Ashton and Thomas said in unison as they both threw their heads back and chugged down their throats, the tiny shots of whiskey they were drinking until it was the last drop. Thomas was the first to drop his shot glass and he exhaled hotly as he shook his head feeling the hot sensation of the whiskey entering into his system. This was the fun part of their nights out. Well this and hitting on strangers. Female ones hehehe. Ashton dropped his shot glass on the table and let out a wide smile. "Oh my God I missed this so much." He said and Thomas nodded his head. He was trying to remember the last time they had gone out like this. Recently they had only been preoccupied with work and it was beginning to become destructive to them. They couldn't even concentrate on their own lives. Ashton let out a sigh. He knew that the only reason why they were both here finally was because he just got released from cell. And as much as that was bad news enough, Ashton was glad that this was

Ashton walked out from his bathroom. It's been what, how many weeks since he moved into his own apartment now and it's been only a few days since the arrest. Things were pretty much back to normal he noted as he walked towards his closet with a small towel in his hands which he used to dry his wet hair. It was the weekend and so he wasn't going to the office on this day. He had plans to go see a match at the local viewing centre. He had grown used to watching football with complete strangers. That usual thrill of hugging a complete stranger who was on the same team as you, when your team won against the opposing team and that thrilling satisfaction of booing at a complete stranger when your team won against theirs was something he wasn't ready to get rid of just yet. He was just going to sit over a few bottles of drinks and laugh away at the way the men in the local bars cheered on their favourite team. Yup! You could say that this was a perfect way to spend one's weekend. Especiall

Ashton's eyes widened when he saw Rebecca seated amongst Elizabeth's friends. Sure enough, he had his suspicions that somehow Rebecca had become friends with Elizabeth, but what he didn't expect was that he would get to meet her as Elizabeth's friend and so soon. He cleared his throat as he saw Rebecca continue to glare angrily at him, as if it was his idea for Elizabeth to bring him here in the first place. He could well have just gone on with that plan of his lounging around with a bunch of strangers, drinking beer and watching the white tigers play soccer.."Hi guys!" Elizabeth greeted her friends excitedly. They were all smiling and happy to meet her. All of them except for two people, Ashton could see. One of them was, you know who. And the second one was some guy that was seated beside her. Ashton couldn't tell why the other guy was regarding him coldly. He understood why Rebecca would glare at him, but why was the total stranger already disliking him? Unless,..... unless he s
