☁ //I demand a happy memory! xD

[x]

     Abigail had been sleeping soundly that morning, all curled up in her warm bed, dark pink hair a mess. She was a small girl of thirteen-years-old; just a normal teenage girl. The sun was shining in her room through the blinds. It was kept relatively clean, unlike Brent who always seemed to keep his very messy. She couldn't handle that kind of mess. Although her and her brother were alike in their personality, they still had different preferences. It didn't stop them from getting along, though. The two were best friends.

     "Good mornin', Abbie."

     The sudden words made the small girl stir, that is until she saw the zombie face mere inches away from her. Deep brown eyes widened at the sight and she let out a short scream. She sat up, a small fist forming in order to protect herself. Although, how was a fist supposed to protect her from a zombie.

     A laugh came from the zombie and the mask was pulled off. Brent stood there with a shit-eating grin on his face. He couldn't help but burst out laughing. "Oh my god, you shoulda seen your face. I thought ya were gonna have a heart attack."

     Abigail finally let out her breath. It was only her stupid brother. "I almost did! Asshole." She grabbed her pillow and began beating him with it until he was apologizing over and over. "I hate it when ya do that!"

     "Yeah, but it never gets old." Another pillow to the head. "Alright, alright. I said I was sorry. Get yourself ready. Let's get some breakfast."

     Her heart was still racing, but she nodded her head. "I take it Mom and Dad went into work again?" They always seemed to be working non-stop, hardly ever there to spend time with their children. Even though her and her mom tried their best to do things together every Friday night, it never seemed enough. She wanted to sit down and have dinner with them like a real family.

     "Yup," Brent replied. He could see that she was a little disappointed by that. "Hey, they'll be home later tonight. Until then, we got the whole place to ourselves." Like every weekend.

     Brent left her room so she could get changed. When she was finished getting ready for the day, she stopped in her room one last time to put on a couple bracelets. On the floor next to her bed was Brent's zombie mask. A smirk rose on her face as she grabbed it and put it on. Payback was a bitch. The teenager tip-toed down the stairs and made her way to the living room as quietly as possible. She snuck up behind the couch, where he was sitting, and got ready to scare the living shit out of him. She began making zombie noises and threw her hands down on his shoulders. All he did was turn around.

     "Really?" he asked, not even phased.

     "Nothin'?" she asked, pulling the mask off. "Seriously?"

     "Seriously. It's gonna take a lot more than a zombie mask to scare me."

     "Dammit."

"I think I'll just leave you two to yourselves..."

Shih frowned, looking down at the books sprawled out on the desk in front of her and Billy before looking at the other man once more. Any other time, she would have dismissed such a question, but Shih knew Ash, and she knew that tone, and she knew that if she did not say something soon that she would be getting a text cancelling the dinner she had finally talked him into after their last conversation about his crazy ex.

"I'll be right back," she said, before straightening and taking Ash's hand to lead him out into the hallway. There was no anger in her face, no annoyance, simply concern. They had never discussed just what sort of damage was done in the previous relationship that Shih highly suspected had left him with so little confidence when he had every right to be a cocky asshole (if he so desired, not that she'd like it) but each day she had begun to notice little things. They weren't obvious, but after he had mentioned his psychotic ex girlfriend she couldn't help but see little pieces and clues that indicated the damage beneath his handsome exterior.

"Listen, I know neither of us really know what's going on here, but don't for one second believe that there's something there between Billy and I. We're working on the conservation proposal, that's it. Alright?"Cupping Ash's face in her hands, she lifted his gaze that had fallen to their feet to her face once more."There's only one guy here that I'm interested in, and I'm pretty sure I've made that clear."

"It isn’t. It’s actually right on time, if you think on it. I’ve honestly flirted with, and been flirted at by, a lot of women. But most of them have never really come out and said that. I-uh… Just didn’t expect to hear it. They all stopped just before this part." His voice was quiet as he looked to the ground. Maybe it wasn’t his fault.

"To be honest, Ash, I find that very hard to believe. You're awesome, and funny, and sometimes sweet," she said, speaking honestly and teasing lightly. She was even more surprised, however, when she looked up to see him staring at the floor. ".... Are you okay? With this, I mean?"

Working at UARF, Shih had learned very quickly, was just as fun as she had thought it was going to be. She was not around the aquarium as much as the others, not since the two turtles that they had recieved and she had already rehabilitated and released and she was spending most of her time on beaches monitoring the nests she had found and tagging what adult turtles she did, but when she was there she always enjoyed herself.Asheq was a significant part of this. Though it was, perhaps, not the best idea for them to flirt as much as they did, Flint never said anything about it and the only time they were ever told to stop was by Joshua when there were children around. It got a little ridiculous at times but as far as Shih knew, it was all in good fun.

And it really was too easy to flirt with him when he walked around shirtless half the time. It wasn't as necessary as he made it out to be considering he worked with cephalopods but she was not about to complain - he was ridiculously attractive. But, as much as she wished that their flirting had some meaning to it, there was no sign that there was, so Shih took advantage of it while she could.

Mornings were typically when they were the worst and there were no tours, and Asheq was always shirtless so to let himself dry off. Her gaze tracked him out of the corner of her eye, and when he bent over to pick up the pen he had dropped because he had been holding it in his mouth she could not resist walking past and giving his ass a firm grab as she grinned playfully.
