Chapter 96

Scott and Ashley look at her for some seconds Kelly notices their odd looks "so what's up guys?" Kelly says trying to take their attention away from her "please Kelly can you tell Scott to leave me alone" Ashley says and Kelly manages to laugh a little

"Why?.. what happened Ash?" Kelly asks "he's been bugging me to accompany him for a gala during the summer.. but I don't want to go" Ashley says and Kelly chuckels Scott still has his gaze on Kelly

"Why don't you get another girl to go out with you since Ashley isn't interested?" Kelly asks making Scott turn to look at Ashley "no Kelly I only want Ashley to go with me" Scott says adamantly

"Then you must be delusional.. Scott you forget I have a girlfriend and I can't just be your plus one at a gala" she says and Scott clenches his jaw "it's just a gala Ash.. I'm not asking you out on a real date" he says Ashley rolls her eyes at him "why don't you take Kelly instead.. Kelly should be used to all of those fancy parties rich folks go to" Ashley says gesturing to Kelly and Scott looks at Kelly "Naaa.. Kelly is too quiet and reserved for such parties.. she won't really socialize and interact with people" Scott says

"Exactly Scott you know me so well.. so I'm not an option for such events" Kelly says grateful that Scott didn't buy the idea of taking her with him to the gala.

"So Ash you seriously won't go with me for the sun set gala next month?" Scott asks Ashley "nope.. I won't" Ashley simply says Scott's countenance falls Kelly notices and feels bad for Scott

"Okay Ash.. I'll find someone else to go with me" Scott says looking sad for a moment but he quickly recovers.

"I'll see you around Kelly" Scott says and leaves the room.

"Ash.. " Kelly calls Ashley "what?" Ashley answers "God you're such a meanie" Kelly says "I can't go with Scott.. I have a girlfriend what will she think if I accompany Scott as his plus one to that gala?" Ashley says nonchalantly and Kelly smiles while shaking her head at Ashley.

"Kelly.. what's up with you?" Ashley asks Kelly "huh me?" Kelly asks "yeah.. you Kelly.. I know there's something up with you.. is it Adrian?" Ashley asks and Kelly's breath hitches. How does Ashley know that this has to do with Adrian she asks

"Look Kelly..  you're not good at hiding stuff so tell me what happened.. did you have a fight?" Ashley asks Kelly. "I wish we had" Kelly says in her mind "so tell me what's wrong" Ashley says

"I.. I and Adrian.. we.." Kelly stutters and Ashley gasps "Oh my God Kelly.. you and Adrian?" Ashley asks "uhmm.. we.." Kelly says "say no more.. wow Kelly.. damn you are a naughty girl aren't you?" Ashley says teasingly to Kelly and Kelly turns red and looks away shyly.

"Wow!.. nice.. very nice Kelly" Ashley says to Kelly and Kelly plays with her fingers nervously "I don't know Ash.. I just feel bad.. I feel guilty" Kelly asks and Ashley looks confused "why?" Ashley asks
