The CEO’s Perfect Mistake

Megan's POV

I can't deny I felt so worried about Ashton and his injury, and the moment I saw him on his bed, I thank the heavens that he was all right. I know he can't walk properly because of his ankle sprain, but at least he doesn't have any brain injury because that can be very scary. I never imagined in my entire life that I will be able to get inside Ashton's room. And everything is still like a dream to me, and I couldn't believe I have the chance to visit their mansion.

We have been cleaning mansions every time aunt Sonia included us on her lists to be part of the cleaning ladies, and I couldn't believe there is this kind of house. I am aware that Ashton has three siblings, two brothers and one sister, and if I am going to count, they are six in the family, including his parents. And this house is so huge, and I wonder why there are people who live in this kind of house.

And then I realize they have a lot of money, so they don't care how many empty rooms they have. And I can tell this mansion also has a theater, game room, family room, gym, sauna, and I can tell they also have a spa in this house.

The moment Ashton asked me to accept him as my boyfriend, I couldn't stop myself from blushing since I felt so nervous and happy at the same time. I became speechless because deep inside my heart, I want him to be my boyfriend. Still, now that I am sitting on his large bed inside his spacious room, I realize we can never be together because our status in life alone is so different from each other. He is super-rich, while I have to work hard to have extra money to study college. And I need to maintain my grades so that I can keep my scholarship. Ashton, on the other hand, doesn't need to do anything since he has been born with a silver spoon in his mouth. And I can say that we are living in two different worlds.

."Ashton, I should be honest to you. I like you a lot too, and please don't laugh at me if I tell you, you are my long time crush, and for so many times I fantasized you were my boyfriend, and you are my knight in shining armor, but I never expected that you would become interested in me. I don't know what happened to you, but I couldn't believe until now that you want me to be your girlfriend." I said, and his face lights up as he looked at me with intensity, and it made me have butterflies in my stomach.

"I hadn't seen you look at me before, even if we were classmates from time to time. You never recognize me as that I exist. It hurts me so many times, but I understand because I don't belong to your society. Right now, I am so happy and flattered that you were asking me to be your girlfriend, and this is a dream come true for me, but I don't want you to become the laughing stock of your community if you have me.; as your girlfriend." I added.

"Hey, Megan, don't say that. I don't care what they will think about me, about us, and our relationship as long as we are happy being together. I know you will say that, Meg, but I wish you will listen to me that I want you to be my girlfriend, and I want you to realize that we belong together and look good together. Megan, what matters the most is the happiness that we feel and how you will feel about me." Ashton declared as he caressed my face.

"Don't be afraid to take a risk, Megan, because if you like me, you will never be afraid, and I promise to protect you, whoever will come between us. Please, Megan, give me your sweet yes! And I promise to take you on a date the moment I can drive my car, or I can get back on my feet. If I didn't sprain my ankle, I am sure we are already having a wonderful date right now, whatever you want, and I am sorry that I got injured. I wanted to have a date with you, Meg." He added.

"It is okay, and you don't need to apologize to me, Ashton. It was not your fault that you got injured because it was an accident." I replied as I give him my sweet smile.

"It is really hard to say no to you, Mr. Pritzgold," I added.

"Yes, Megan, I don't like it if you will say no to me, and I will never stop until you accept me as your boyfriend, so it will never make any difference if you say yes now or later, but a piece of advice, it is better if you will say yes now so we can get over this kind of feeling because you make my heart feels so restless." He said, and I let out a soft sigh, and I know I should feel overwhelming happiness right now that the hot quarterback of our school was pleading to have me as his girl. I understand why I feel so apprehensive right now after I have seen how different our world is, and I hope my decision will not give me heartaches in the end.

I want to give it a try since I have been dreaming of having him in my life as my boyfriend. I think having Ashton Pritzgold as my boyfriend can be so cool, and Alice was right. I should give myself a chance to be happy, and I also want to get over this kind of feeling where I am afraid he will not show himself again. The cheerleaders are all giving me a hard time, especially Lauren, and I think it is about time to provide them with the medicine they want for torturing and harassing me.

"Okay, I hope you won't make me cry," I said, and the happiness that I saw on his face was priceless.

"I want you to say the word, Meg." He begged.

"Yes, I want to be your girlfriend, Ashton." I declared, and he captured my mouth right away, which made me let out a soft moan. And how can I forget the wonderful feeling of kissing Ashton?

He kissed me long, and I felt him pulled me closer to him as he put his arms around my waist, and I curled my hand around his neck. And then I thought he was kissing me slowly that I can only feel his lips are brushing me lightly, and then without warning, he held my mouth captive again, and when he deepened our kiss, I couldn't stop myself from moaning. And how can I forget the wonderful feeling of kissing Ashton? He kissed me long enough that made us both out of breath after our searing kiss, and my entire body shivered. And I can feel my skin is covered with goosebumps, and then he tightly hugged me.

"Thank you so much, Megan. You make me so happy today. And I think it was a blessing in disguise that I got injured so that you will give me your sweet yes." Ashton said as he released me from his embrace while he was giving me an intense stare that made me have knots on my stomach, and now that he became my boyfriend, it still feels surreal to me.

"Don't say that. I don't want you to get hurt." I said, and I couldn't stop myself from pouting my lips.

"You looked so adorable, Megan." He said.

"I am sorry if I am a weird girl," I replied.

"I like that you are different, and they don't know the real you, it is their loss, and I don't care what they might call you because you are special to me. And I love you all the way you are. He said, and my heart swelled with happiness.

I stayed in his room for a long while, and I enjoyed talking with my boyfriend, Ashton is sweet, and I felt so happy that we are now a couple. He stole kisses from me while we talked, and I felt like I was in seventh heaven. And I don't care what the cheerleaders will do now that I became Ashton's girl.

He asked me to stay with dinner, and Zachary was right again; his brothers are incredible. We get along just fine. They asked me to join them as they helped their brother go to the dining room to eat dinner. I am no longer shock that they have a long table that could accommodate twenty persons. And I am just glad Zach is still around. I got conscious that I sit on my chair while the housemaids with uniforms served our dinner. I helped my mom in any way I can even if I got so busy with my part-time jobs, especially if I got home early, and if I haven't come into Ashton's house today, I will be the one who will prepare for our dinner, and I felt guilty that I wasn't able to go home early.

"Megan, is Ashton now your boyfriend?" Lennon asked as I chew my food, and I almost choke with his question, and before I can answer him, I felt so glad Ashton answered on my behalf.

"Yes, Megan is now my girlfriend, Lennon," Ashton said happily, and I felt my entire face blushed while his brothers are grinning, and I can see the sadness beneath Zachary's smile. 

"That is cool!" Cole said as he smiled at me, and we continue eating our dinner. At the same time, I felt so conscious if I will pick up the wrong spoon since I didn't expect that we are going to have fine dining inside their home, and I couldn't believe this is happening to me right now. I just felt relieved that I still remember the table set-up every time I worked as a waitress during some social events as part of our part-time job with aunt Sonia. I also tried to look at them of what they are using by pretending to look at the interior design of their dining hall. The food was superb that I became so full even if I felt so conscious eating with them for the first time. But Ashton's brothers made our dinner bearable by sharing jokes.

When I get ready to say goodbye to Ashton, I am shocked when he told me he would take me home, and Zach said goodbye to us. And I felt relieved when I found out his brothers will be coming with us. Lennon drives the car while Cole sat on the front seat, and we sat beside each other.. I can't stop myself from feeling so happy to be surrounded by these down-to-earth boys, and I can tell the Pritzgold brothers are different from the rich kids around campus, and I felt so glad to be given this opportunity to know them.
