After the slightly tense incident earlier, the girls took a while to calm themselves from their shock.
"I'm gonna grab a blanket and stuff" I jumped off the couch and ran upstairs.
I actually just wanted to check on Ace but I knew, I had to give him some time to calm down after the incident just now.
I knocked slowly on Ace's door, peeking to look into his room. Ace sat on the edge of his bed, ruffling his hair with great pressure.
"Sofia, what's wrong? Need anything?" Ace asked, when he saw me coming.
"Hmm no. I just wanted to ask, are you mad at me?" I'm nervous. Ace shook his head, no. I closed the door to his room and walked towards Ace.
"Are you mad at me for what happened?" He asked with a certain tone in his voice. "I can't kill you even if I want to" Ace admitted in a slightly weak tone of voice.
"I know." I rubbed his back while standing next to him.
I know he was hurt because of his mother's death, it made him think and act irrationally.
Ace's shirt was open and for the first time he was wearing sweatpants. The room was dark and the only source of light was the sun that pierced through the thick black curtains.
He stood up and I knew without him having to ask, Ace needed a hug. I hugged her as tightly as I could, I felt the warmth in her arms. Ace leaned his head on my shoulder, exhaling slowly and feeling heavy.
"I don't like seeing you get hurt." I confessed while gently rubbing his shoulder.
"I deserve it."
I shook my head "No, no one deserves to lose a mother" I told her. "You're very tall." I changed the topic of conversation to be more positive. I could feel him smiling even though I couldn't see his face.
"I should probably go back down." I murmured softly at Ace.
Ace sighed, releasing me from his embrace.
"If you need anything, let me know." I said as he walked to the door, his hand still holding my hand for as long as he could. As soon as our hands did not hold each other, I felt so empty, wanting to continue with Ace but I had to go back to the girls below. I stared at him for a moment, wondering if he could feel it too.
I shook myself out of my consciousness before walking down

"Sorry for too long, I have to do something." I gave them blankets and pillows.
"It's okay." Riley smiled with her mouth full of popcorn. I chuckle amusedly at him.
How to scoop up all the chocolate and Scarlett's eating carrots. "Why carrots?" I laughed, with a confused face.
"It's good for eyesight." Scarlett smiled innocently, still chewing on the carrots.
"Don't question it." Laughing when we watch that movie.
We've watched a few movies and now we're opening talks with each other.
"Ace is very interesting." Riley suddenly said.
I just rolled my eyes.
"Yes right, he's very handsome," Scarlett added, joining the conversation.
"Yeah, but he's taken." How to sigh, smile at me.
"Maybe." I shrugged my shoulders, not caring.
"Ace is sculpted perfectly." Riley thinks of Ace .
"Yes," I muttered. Suddenly I was annoyed, feeling dislike when another girl was talking about Ace.
"Guys, he's taken okay. Now stop talking about him." How to warn them, realize I don't like them talking about him.
"OK okay." Riley took a breath.
"Sophy." Ace called.
"Yes" I shouted from the living room.
"Do you have a show tomorrow?" Ace asked me, walking in bare-chested wearing only his gym pants. Her hair was wet so she must have taken a shower.
I could see all the girls drooling at him and I wanted to gouge out their eyes. "none. Why?" I was curious, trying not to show my jealousy.
"Just make sure, do you want to get out?" muttered Ace, just looking at me.
"Yes sure." I nodded at him.
"Good."
"I'm Riley." Riley introduced herself, taking Ace's eyes off me. I saw Ace scowling at him.
"I know." Answer her in a cold tone.
"Come," I growled as I grabbed her hand, pulling her towards the stairs.
"What was that?" Ace grinned knowing that I was jealous.
"Nothing's." I play with my hands.
Ace licked his lips while looking at me from top to bottom. "I mad you jealous," she was almost beaming happily.
"No." I'm ashamed. Ace chuckled lightly.
"Alright then, just let me-" Ace walked back to the living room.
"No." I took his hand again. Ace pulled me into his arms, our bodies touched and our lips were only a few inches apart.
"You don't believe me, when I'm around other women?" He raised his eyebrows, looking straight into my eyes.
I shook my head, admitting I didn't believe it. Ace let out a small breath. "What do I have to do to prove that I'm just watching you?" Ask Ace to me.
I shrugged because I really didn't know. Ace moved his hand along the side of my body, grasping my hand tightly.
"Don't be jealous, other women are worthless to me now." Ace grinned at me who was still jealous.
"It still doesn't help." I folded my hands and pouted playfully. Ace smiled before he rubbed his thumb against my lips to stop me from pouting.
"Go enjoy your night." Ace muttered to me softly. Ace looked at me as if saying I should leave now, I rolled my eyes lazily, we both walked away.
Arriving in the living room, I saw the gadits falling asleep while watching the movie.
