Chapter 13: Shopping 2

ALEXANDER

I took a day off today because I wanted to take Ashley shopping. I liked her in my clothes but it's getting to my head and I don't want to get close to her yet. We had breakfast and I told her to get ready, that we were going out. I got a call from Dimitri, saying the directors wanted to see me and not him, so I took Ashley to the company and she just kept staring. I left her in my office for an hour or so, but that wasn't the problem. The problem was that my idiotic brother, Dimitri followed me back to the office, flirting with my mate, making her blush, smoothing her hand. That was enough to irk me and I sent him out.

We've been to 3 different shops now and still Ashley hasn't gotten anything. It's either she squash her nose or she looks at it in disgust. She says I'm not taking her to another shop and she pulled me to another section.

"Blue, can we get soaps?" She asks 'Who's blue'.

"Who's that?" I questioned, looking down. She's so small.

"Um... You". She said feeling embarrassed. I almost laughed.

"Why do you call me blue?" I asked, knowing she wouldn't want to answer and she doesn't reply.

"I'm waiting" I reminded her. She sighs defeated. "Well because of your eyes" she rushed out.

"Well my name's Alexander". "Alexander". She said trying the word "I like it". She smiled looking ahead.

I've never felt so disgusted like right now. We're buying sleep wears and the attendant's just busy throwing herself at me, showing her breasts and swaying her flat ass. How can one have such large boobs and such a flat ass. Every time Ashley isn't looking, she just gives me this annoying, irritating smile, showing me her uneven teeth. If I were mad I wouldn't look at this bitch twice.

Ashley has gone to get what she likes and I'm stuck here with this animal. 'Ashley' I wonder why she can't remember her past, whatever had happened to her must have been traumatizing. 'Yeah, losing one's entire family' for her brain to let go of such. I've also noticed something about her, her heart beats are not the normal human heart beat, especially when she's scared, anxious, it beats 3times faster. She also gets scared easily. Samantha said she barely touches her food and I need to change that.

"Would you like anything sir?" The lady asked and I said "No". "Are you sure? We have juices, wines,..."

"I believe you are not deaf" I replied with a stoic face, making her laugh nervously. She walked away, leaving me to my thoughts. I could hear Ashley's soft footsteps and her heart beat. Guess she's done.

"Are you done?" I asked once she stepped out of the rows. "Yeah. This should be enough?" She says brightly, showing me only a few clothes in her arms. 'How many are they?' I sighed. She's so different, other girls would be looking for sexy lingerie, spending money, throwing themselves at me but she. She hasn't even started spending money, she even complain about the shops I took her to. I walked to her, took the clothes and gave them to the bitch of an attendant, then I grabbed her hand, leading her back to the rows.

"Those aren't enough" I said. "But they are" she replied. Also she likes arguing. "You've been spending since we got here and I don't want to spend your money but still you insist and now I'm telling you, those clothes are enough". She said everything so fast.

"Look, there's no way you've started spending my money. You haven't even started shopping to me. And don't worry, I'm the one spending, so it's fine. Now please, take what you like or I'll help you out".

At last. Finally. Finally done with this shopping. It's 4:30pm and I really wish to head home.

"Don't worry I'll handle it from here" The lady said, sending the smaller girl out. Ashley kept watching how the lady, kept eyeing me, using her eyes to devour me, undressing me just by staring and she didn't seem to mind. I don't understand how she's not jealous or annoyed. I tried, I really really tried to ignore all her insolence, her flirtatious smiles, her deep v-line neck but I just couldn't, so after she returned my card, I just just to say something.

"Thank you sir, please do come again" She said smiling stupidly.

"Yeah. And when I do, don't flirt with your sagging boobs. They are annoying and must weigh more than a 50years old pig" I said making her gasp. 'Well I don't care'

I turned to Ashley and grabbed a few bags off the floor, walking out. I don't care if I hurt her, like WTF, that's not my problem.

"That was rude of you" I heard Ashley saying. "I know" I said not turning to her. After a few minutes, I heard her snicker.

"What's funny?" I asked, now looking down at her.

"It's... It's just what you said" she said trying to hold her laughter. "50years old pig". Her laugh sounded so unique, so gentle, I could her it all day long. She was still laughing when her tummy growled which made her freeze. Her cheeks were pink and just the sight made me chuckle. Now she was red like a beet fruit.

"Let's get you something to eat" I said once I've sobered up.

We got to a beanery and I just walked pass the line but of course, Ashley had to pull me back.

"Where are you going to?" She whispered. "To get you food" I stated the obvious. "Wait for your turn" she said making me stand in the queue. Like what the fuck. Me in a queue.

"Ashley we don't have time for this and you are hungry, so let's just get food and leave" I said as calm as possible. 'I'm losing it with all her arguments'.

"We'll wait. Its unfair to walk by like that and this people might be mad, so let's just wait". "Alright, fine. You can wait here while I get this" I said raising the bags up to her face "into the car". "Okay then" She said smiling.

I walked back to the car and pushed everything, inside the already full car. Yeah we practically went to all the shops, bought almost everything, got necessary and unnecessary things but I was the one who insisted, so I'm not going to complain.

All those stuffing took me 5minutes, so right now, I'm heading back to where I left Ashley, at the beanery. I took leisure strides towards her but stopped when I heard her giggle. 'What's funny?'. She had back facing me but I could clearly see who sat in front of her. A guy. Imagine i left her for just 5 fucking minutes and this pest is already all over her. Since we got to this mall almost every guy turns to look at her and it annoys me, I have to give them death glares when she's not looking.

"So have any boyfriend?" I heard him ask and that was enough to make me walk faster. "Nothing just wondering if you'll love to have one" he said with a wink. Just then and there I lost my self control. He's dead.

ASHLEY

Xander left me in an eatery. After we finished shopping I was really hungry and my stomach had to notify me in an embarrassing way. I felt bad for the lady he insulted, she looked like she would cry any minute. '50years old pig'. The thought made me chuckle.

"What would you like?" The boy behind the counter asked without looking up, he sounded bored.

"Um... What would you take?" I asked instead. I didn't know what they sell, so he should tell me. He looked up and his eyes grew wide.

"I-I'd take French fries with a meaty burger and a chocolate smoothie" he said all in one breath.

"Okay" I said cheerfully. That sound nice, but what would Xander like, I just took two of the order. I took our food and took a seat.

"Hey, mind if I join you" A guy said smiling warmly.

"Yeah" I replied with a fry in my mouth. "Thanks" he said. I sat there eating quietly but he just had to stop me.

"My name's Jordan" he said, making me look up. "Ashley" I replied.

"Such a pretty name for a pretty lady". He said and I blushed. I took a sip of the chocolate smoothie and Lord have mercy. It was the sweetest thing ever, it was so creamy and had just the right amount of chocolate.

"Mhmm" I hum in delight.

"Yeah I know right. That was my reaction too the first time I tasted it" he said warmly.

"It so so delicious" I said in between sips. "So are you here alone?" Jordan asked. "No, I'm actually waiting for someone" I answered. 'Why is he questioning me? Did I do something wrong?'.

"Thought you were alone" he said with a pout and I giggled. He looked like a 3years old child.

"So have any boyfriend?" He asked. 'Questions again'. "Why do you ask?" I questioned him back. 'If he likes questions so much, I should also ask him too'.

"Nothing, just wondering if you'll love to have one" he said with a lovely smile. I was just about to decline his offer but Xander stepped in.

"We are leaving" he said coldly, glaring daggers at Jordan. "Ookay" I said standing up, ready to leave but Jordan pulled my arm, pulling me to his side.

"Who are you?" Hr asked Xander with a deep frown.

"I'd advice you let her go. Right now" Xander said calmly but behind that voice was a serious storm, ready to sweep anything and anyone and Jordan was just that anyone.

"Jordan, it's fine" I said, looking at him with a smile.

"Here's my number, in case you need help" he said handing me a card which Xander collected and tore right in front of him.

"She wouldn't be needing help, especially from a pest like you" Xander spat. He pulled me away from Jordan and we walked out, well I was running to keep up with Xander's long legs.

"Hey, slow down" I said when I was tired but he just ignored me.

We soon got to the car and he opened the door and shoved me inside.

The ride back home took 20minutes. 20minutes of awkward silence. Xander clenched his jaw so tight that I thought they would break, his knuckles were gripping the steering wheel tightly, turning them white. Once we were home, he hopped out of the car, walking inside so fast. I carried a few bags out of the car and walked in. 'Why's he so pissed?'

"Fac el pulmentum" (make her some food) he said to Samantha as he walked out.

After I finished my food, I got to my room to find all of the bags set at one side of the room and they were a lot.

'Didn't even say thank you'.
