Ashley spent the Sunday with her parents, visiting religious sites, restaurants, shopping, and few games. She bid them farewell after booking cab for them. Upon returning at her home, she grabbed her car keys and got a bit dressed up to go to a club and then, maybe get hooked up on one night stand or just a long drive.
When she was about to leave, Noah saw her driving in the car when he was waling back from a game with his friends. He quickly said that he had to go somewhere and ran towards Ashley.
Ashley: Oh sh*t! Why don't you let a single thing go my way, huh God?!
Noah: Ashley! Wait a second.
Ashley: (Lowered her car window) What now?
Noah: (Saw her clothes, a gorgeous sleeveless body-con mini dress, suited her a lot) Are you going to a club so late at night, alone?
Ashley: It's just me, myself and I,...A solo ride until I die (sounded a little drunk)
Noah: Don't tell me, you already drank a bit and are now driving?
Ashley: You nag too much, mister! Never had you ever known the meaning of "fun"??
Noah: (opens her car's door, bends over an removes the seatbelt, lifts her up from the seat and puts her down on the seat beside. He sits on the driver seat instead.)
Ashley: (startled when he lifts her without a word) Ahh-f*ck!! What the hell do you think you are doing, Noah?
Noah: I'll drive for you, ma'am.
Ashley: Fine. (puts the address of the nightclub in the map and plays her songs on loud volume) "....(gibberish)..yeah yeah! Oh for you, i would've done wateverr, and I just can't believe we ain't together.....I'll buy you anything, I'll buy you any ring.....(sings so many songs till they reach)
Noah: Can I join you in, Ash?
Ashley: Are we close enough yet for you to call me that? And is it that if I say no, you won't follow me in?? (turns around brushing her hair on Noah's face and enters the club)
Noah: Miss, you can't be this rude, but never-mind. I like it! I'm coming in, anyways!
Ashley: (loudly) Yes baby!! (goes straight to the dance floor, men surround her and get touchy too, she just dances)
Noah: (finally finds her, feels bit awkward seeing other men stare and touch/dance with her like that, so he approaches her and moves them aside, dancing with her all by himself)
They were suddenly the center of the dance stage with their fun yet graceful dance and serving looks! Ashley the drank and Noah had a juice. Then, she drank a lot and so, Noah decided to ask her to leave. She just was too tired and agreed. She could barely walk in her heels.
2:00 a.m. Monday
She puts the address of a beach, a rather secluded one, instead of her home. Noah, seemed to understand her, just drove her to the place quietly. The silence was heavy. She had her head out of the open window. Then, she opened the sunroof and stood up there, her hair flying as the wind blows gently on her face, eyes closed, hands like wings of a long-lasting freedom of a bird. She looked mesmerizing, and he fell in love with her, probably not deep, but he did feel different around her. He knew, her rudeness was her way of protecting herself.
Noah: (stops the car.) We've reached. (he opens the door for Ashley)
Ashley: (sounds a bit more sober) Thanks.
She runs straight at the shore, almost falling because of her high heels. She removes her heels and holds them in her hands, going in, till the waves touch her feet. Breathing a sigh as if she were exhaling the exhaustion and worries, she screams towards the sea: "This feels great!! I finally feel like me, again. "
Noah ends up smiling and laughing at her childish actions but joins her hurriedly and says: "I feel like I'm going crazy! (lower volume) and, it's 'cause of you...(looks at her face)". Ashley puts her heels on the shore. Then,...
Ashley: (goes deeper and splashed water on Noah's face) Take this, silly boy!
Noah: Heyy, I'm not silly! (splashes water on her too)
Ashley: (avoids it and runs away on the beach with Noah following and soon catching up with her, holding her around her waist and lifting her back, towards him) Oh nooo, aahhhh!
Noah: Gotcha! Don't you try to run away!
Ashley and Noah, alone on the beach, only the waves clashing to the shore accompany them. The beautiful and peaceful night, a serene moonlight and them.
Noah brushes her hair behind her ears, holds her tiny waist with his veiny hands and asks her if this suits her liking.
Ashley: Yes, this is my dream I guess! Nothing feels real. Couldn't ask for more. (suddenly pulls Noah into a kiss)
Noah kisses her back and then takes the lead! They explore each other like they were exactly what was needed to complete the story. Noah then holds Ashley's hand and sits down beside her on the beach. Ashley also sits beside him and slowing falls asleep on his shoulder. Ashley was deep in sleep and Noah, staring at her lovingly. She then creeped closer to his neck, causing him to moan a little. Then, he quickly took off his jacket and put it on her to keep her warmer. He gently woke her up after a few minutes and took her in the car (carrying her in bridal style).
3:00 a.m. Monday
Ashley: I'm sorry about your office if you miss it and also about splashing water on you. I will get changed quickly, I have extra pair of clothes in my car. Here, take this towel and wipe yourself dry. I will see if i have something for you to wear. And this jacket, I'll wash and give it to you tomorrow.
Noah: (waiting for her outside her car. He goes, and picks up her heels from the beach and also a few flowers that he saw near the trees, to give her.) (knocks and opens the car door) Here, your heels and this is...oh, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to, I knocked and thought you were done,..
Ashley: Ahh! (Kicks him on his hand) Look away! I'm changing!!
Noah: Yes. (withdraws and closes the door)
Ashley: Come in, I'm done.
Noah: Yes. (he drove away to their house, not speaking much on the way because of the embarrassment)
Ashley: (in her mind--) He saw me in my underwear, ahh this is so embarrassing! What should I do now? Act like I forgot? Yes, it's not a big deal, at least I....I wasn't completely naked...urgghhh!
Noah: (not looking at her) You should go up and get fresh, I'll park your car.
Ashley: Thanks, for everything. Thanks, bye. I'll go up. Meet you after work! (runs away in hurry)
