The CEO’s Perfect Mistake

Megan's POV

"Of course, I would love to have another date with you, handsome," I replied to my boyfriend after asking me if we could have another date, and he was beaming at me. And then, we said good morning to each other since it was almost three o'clock in the morning. I watched his car move away from our driveway before I got inside our house, and as expected, everyone was sleeping already, and I tiptoed going into my room so that I couldn't wake them up.

The following morning I woke up early since I didn't want my mom to think I abused the freedom

they gave me. I prepare breakfast and do the laundry, and then I study my lessons. Ashton picked me up at two in the afternoon, and he looked so fresh and handsome wearing his cargo shorts and a white t-shirt.

"Hi," He greeted me the moment he got out of his car to open the passenger's door for me, and I felt glad he remained a gentleman.

"Where are we going today?" I asked him, and he smiled at me, and then he started his car.

"It is a secret for now." He said, and I raised my eyebrow.

"Okay, now that we are out as a couple again, I couldn't stop myself from doing the usual things the couples do, like watching movies together." He said, and I smiled at him.

"I am excited," I said.

"Me too." He replied, and Ashton held my hand as he drove away from our house.

We watched a romantic comedy, and I couldn't stop myself from feeling excited every time he stole a kiss from me. It feels exhilarating, and I can feel the knots on my stomach as I lean my head on his shoulder, and it feels so wonderful to be this close with Ashton. We had dinner after we strolled in the mall, and we met some of his friends; I felt glad they smiled at me, and I could tell they were looking at me without judgment.

The following day at school, I could tell most of our classmates were smiling at me now, and they looked friendlier except Lauren's close friends, but I didn't mind them. I became closer with Ashton, and I asked aunt Sonia I would only accept a part-time job only half-day on Saturdays since I want to watch Ashton's games if it falls on Saturday. If it will happen on weeknights, I already asked Anthony I would be absent every time my boyfriend has a match.

I just wanted him to know that I support his games and wish Ashton knew I value our relationship. I felt so glad that my parents and siblings promised to watch with me every time he had a game. I get so happy that my family supported my love life, and they like Ashton. Every time I go out with him, they don't have anything to say, and we become closer to each other as time goes by. And my boyfriend told me that one of these days, we were going to his grandfather's place, and I couldn't stop being excited.

Every time we were alone, we couldn't stop touching each other, and I knew that he wanted to bring our relationship to the next level, but he was only waiting for me, and even if I felt afraid, and I couldn't deny I wanted to do it too. I knew I wanted Ashton to be my first. And I want to surrender everything to him during his birthday. He told me he wanted to celebrate his birthday at his grandfather's house with me during the day because it falls on Saturday. I couldn't stop myself from feeling so excited about it, and I became more at peace when I hadn't heard anything from Megan and her friends after the night I sang in front of them.

I know I still feel hurt that Ashton couldn't introduce me to his parents, and I never brought it up because I already knew it would only upset Ashton. On his special day, he will spend the night with his family, and I don't want to be selfish since he already promised to spend his entire day with me. It would be exciting since I know it would be special for both of us because it is his birthday, and I plan to give him an extraordinary gift.

I know we are both adults, and we can do whatever we want with our relationship. Still, I couldn't stop feeling apprehensive about it since I knew he came from a wealthy family. I am so afraid that his parents will never accept me, but I am willing to take the risk because Ashton is my first love, and I know deep in my heart he is the only one I want to spend the rest of my life with, even if we are still young. I could already imagine being Ashton's wife in the future.

"Are you excited about it, Meg?" Alice asked as we went shopping in the mall one week before Ashton's birthday.

"I am very excited, Alice, and I became ecstatic when he told me he had already asked my parents that we will go to his grandparents' estate on Friday night, and we will be back Saturday afternoon, it means I will be spending the entire night with him," I said. I could feel my entire face blushing.

"Wow, that is exciting." She said.

"It means we need to buy more lingerie." My friend added, and I could tell my face turned redder, and then she faced me.

"Are you ready or not?" She asked me, and I nodded my head; and I know I am still a little shy about it, and she beamed at me.

"When you are ready, Megan, go for it, and if not, then don't; besides, Ashton is different; even if girls lined up to have his attention and he can take any girl he wants on campus, he chose you. The decision will always be in your hands, Megan. I know you told me once, you wanted to give your virginity to the one you love, and you want him to be your husband. You love Ashton, but he is not yet your husband, so it is all up to you." Alice said.

"Yeah, I know, and it is final; I want it to be with Ashton," I responded.

"No regrets?" She asked, and I shook my head.

"Okay then, let us go shopping!" My best friend exclaimed, and I couldn't stop myself from smiling.

When we got out of the mall, I received a text from Ashton, and he told me he was going to pick us up since his practice was over.

"He is coming!" I said excitedly.

"Wow, Pritzgold is crazy about you, Megan," Alice replied, and I couldn't be happier, and for the past weeks, I was thankful that no drama happened in our school. We already eat our lunch at the cafeteria, and Ashton and Zach are now eating with us at our table, and we suddenly became celebrities in our school. 

"Did you tell Ashton about the call you received from Gael?" My best friend asked me, and I shook my head.

"Well, for me, it was a good offer, Megan." She said.

"That song is only for Ashton, Alice," I said.

"Yeah, I get it, but you can earn from it, Megan. I mean, it would be a start for your career, that song has a wonderful beat, and if you want, you can sing it, but Gael already told you someone is interested in buying your song." Alice said, and I sighed.

"I only wanted to be an engineer, but never a songwriter. I only did it for Ashton." I replied.

"But I have heard and read your other songs, Megan, and I believe those songs are still for Ashton; you composed them while you were watching him practice from a distance every morning." She declared, and how I wished I didn't let her read my composition.

"It was my collections, Alice, and I will never sell them to anyone. I love my creations, and I don't want to hear anyone sings my music." I said.

"It is your choice, Meg, just in case someday you'd need to sell it, " Alice said.

"Don't worry, I will tell you, but I think it will never happen; it's too personal for me to sell that song or any of my songs," I said with sadness in my voice.

"Okay, being your best friend, I just wanted to hear your music everywhere; besides, if you are going to sell your music, it only means you are telling the whole world how much Ashton made you feel special even if for you, you are not special, and when that time comes I will be the happiest and I will be very proud of you, Meg." She said, and I looked at her.

"Do you think someone will listen to my song?" I asked, and her eyes widened.

"Come on, Meg, Gael will never call you if your music is nothing for him." She said, and I smiled, and before I could talk back, I saw my boyfriend's car stop in front of us, and I couldn't believe how fast he could get out of his car, that he had already opened the back door for Alice, and the front passenger's door for me.

"What did you buy?" Ashton asked the moment he sat on the driver's seat, and I heard my best friend giggled at the back while I could tell my face blushed.. And I could listen to the pounding of my heart against my chest, and there is no way I am going to tell my boyfriend that I bought lingeries for our date on his coming birthday, and just thinking about it made me feel so thrilled, and I couldn't stop feeling the butterflies on my stomach.
