In Love, Never Say Never

As I had said those words harshly, he knitted his brows upon hearing them. “We’ll shower together.”

Instantly, rage coursed through my veins. “Ashton, do you not speak human? I said I’m going to shower. If you want to take a shower, go to the other bathroom.”

His expression darkened. “What’s the matter with you? Why are you losing your temper over nothing? What did I do to you?”

“Nothing!”

I was not in the mood to talk to him. If he were not going to leave, I would. If you’re not going to leave me alone, I’ll do it myself!

“Hurry up and take a shower. You smell,” I voiced instead as I scrunched up my face.

Lifting a brow, he raised his arm to take a whiff of himself. Instead of scrunching up his face like I did, he smirked. “Scarlett, do you have a dog’s nose? I’m surprised that you can even smell that.”
