Ashton POV

"Oh I see... Hello Alexei I'm Damian Williams... Ashton's Boss!"

Alexei gave Damian a handshake and replied,

"I see... Nice to meet you Mr. Damian Williams... Ashton's Boss..."

I wasn't able to control a giggle that left my mouth. Carlton to left a small chortle his mouth. Damian glared at both of us and turned to Alexei,

"You seem to be very much sarcastic for your age Alexei..."

"Oh I know Mr. Williams... My mom always tells me that I get my sarcastic nature from my father and sister!"

I saw Damian take a deep breath while raising his eyebrows,

"I see... Well anyways what do you do for a living?"

"I am a musician..."

"Then are you famous?"

Damian once again asked Alexei,

"Yes! Very much..."

He nodded his curly head at Damian,

"That's great... I hope to see you around more from now on?"

As Damian was about to come near me Alexei spoke,

"Yes definitely... I'm going to stay here with my baby Ash till my next tour starts..."

I smiled at Alexei and Damian as they exchanged sarcastic remarks between each other. On the other side I felt Carlton nudge my shoulder to gain my attention. I turned to him and asked,

"Yes Carlton?"

He leaned low and kissed my cheek softly. His kiss giving me nothing but guilt all over my face. I quickly hid it all behind a smile as he tucked my hair away from my face with his hand and spoke,

"I was waiting for you to return so that we can have some romantic dinner together. But it looks like your Boss and brother aren't going anywhere. So can I take you out on a date tomorrow?"

I scratched the back of my neck and looked at Damian for a split second. Then I replied to the eager Carlton ever so softly,

"Uh- no actually..."

He furrowed his brows at me and then shook his chocolate head. Holding onto my shoulders he asked with worry,

"Why what happened?"

I gave him a small smile and replied truthfully,

"Well the thing is... I'm going to Canada to meet my parents and stay at their house for the weekend. So..."

He threw his hands in the air and yelled loudly,

"That's great... I'll join you too... After all I too want to meet my future in laws..."

"What's going on here?"

Alexei asked the both of us,

"Oh... Me and Ashton are going to his parents house tomorrow morning..."

Alexei turned to me and asked deadpanned,

"You are going to Canada?"

I nodded my head at his words,

"Yes Lexi..."

Then his expression changed to a very excited one as he jumped while speaking,

"Then I'll join you too... I too want to meet Mom, Dad and Lana... I'll join you guys too!"

Suddenly Damian spoke from behind Alexei which made his little celebration get over in a second,

"Uh- actually I already have a lot of company for tomorrow..."

Then Carlton asked Damian,

"What do you mean by a lot of company?"

"Well..."

Damian took a pause before replying to both the men,

"Me, Ashton, Bian and his boyfriend Felix are going together in my car tomorrow..."

Damian spoke from the other side of the room. I saw Carlton and Alexei's eyebrows shoot upwards together. They both sulked at Damian's words and turned to making puppy eyes,

"Come on baby take me too... I haven't been home for over a year!"

Alexei folded his hands and prayed to me to take him too,

"Me too Ashton... I want to meet your parents so badly!"

Carlton too held my hand in his and did a sulky face,

"Wait a minute both of you, let me think... Ah ha I have an idea! All the six of us will go together and enjoy the weekend at my house! How does that sounds?"

I proposed plan to them.

"PERFECT!"

Both the men kneeling in front of me yelled in unison. I smiled at them and Damian spoke,

"Mar car is not that big to hold six people at a single time. We might need to take two cars then!"

Carlton looked at Damian as I saw the hope in his and Alexei's eyes die down I like a sudden spark,

"Alright then I'll take my car too... At least it will fit two people separately in it!"

Carlton proposed an idea. Damian agreed to it and then both the men left my house leaving me and Alexei together. The both of us settled on the couch to watch another horror movie before packing our bags for tomorrow's trip.

The next day;
Ashton's house;

Both the cars arrived with passengers in one of them. Damian had brought Bian and Felix with him in his car while Carlton drove here alone. I opted for a very light and cozy outfit as the it was going to be a long drive back home. It was a simple hoodie paired with a ripped baggy jeans. I've never wore clothes like this ever since I graduated from college. It feels way to nostalgic for some reason. I guess I'm getting old day by day now!

As I was going to Carlton's car Alexei ran past me and sat besides Carlton in his two seater car. I giggled at his behavior and ignored the sulking Carlton behind the wheel. Then I went in Damian's car and sat on the passenger seat. Bian and Felix were on the backseat together. Felix was sleeping silently on Bian's shoulder while Bian gave me a small smile as I climbed in the car. Damian looked so happy after seeing me enter his car that he almost came forward to kiss me. When he realized that we were not the only one in the car he stopped and pretended to take something from my side. His hand brushed past my exposed skin from the ripped part of the jeans. His cold hand made a shiver go down my spine as he leaned low.

God let this ride get over as quickly as possible...
