âI guess. Iâm just glad I didnât have to follow in Opalâs footsteps and win Homecoming Queen. She would never let me forget it,â she shrugged. âI mean what I said,â she mused, teasing him lightly. âGood to know you didnât participate in anything that could have given you HIV. Wait, you guys seriously kissed? Congratulations really are in order for you. Who initiated it?â
âNow that I can understand. Siblings will never let you live down anything if they can help it,â he comments. With the turning point of the conversation, Ashton can absolutely feel his cheeks starting to heat up more than they already had, leaving him looking flushed and embarrassed. âItâs sorta complicated. It wasnât anything... official. Hayd has been really conflicted and I was trying to help him out.â Heâs never been one for lying (even if it isnât a complete lie in the first place), but hopes anyway that the waver in his voice doesnât give him away. âMight have realized that maybe I need to think over some feelings I didnât know I had. Which is awkward as fuck.â
