His Secret Obsession
Chapter 33

(Asher)

It took everything in me to not yank my kitten by the hand and drag her off somewhere and kiss her like I have never kissed anyone in my life..well anyone except Emery, she was the only girl who could make me lose control. But what I needed to be right now was just that, I needed to control these urges until I confess everything to Emery tonight..considering Carson has caught on earlier than I expected him to. I was ready to act, I am done waiting to claim my girl. I am done putting my life on hold just because Carson is so possessive and controlling over Emery. Doesn't he realize I would take care of her and protect her more than anyone? I would never do anything to hurt her..she is it..she is all I want and the moment I laid my eyes on her that just confirmed everything even more. This morning I started having doubts, realizing that this could end horribly in every way possible..not only is there the possibility that Carson might kick me out of the house and stop being my friend but what scares me the most is the thought that Emery could reject me. She could say I betrayed her trust and want nothing to do with me..which hurts more than anything else.

I texted her, feeling insecure and unsure if her feelings were running as deep as mine..but what she said..I just knew in my heart she meant it all..I feel like she will accept me..that she has accepted me.

Sadly, I am probably f*****g up her head right now..not only am I all in and wanting her as Ronan..the real-life me is losing more and more control by the minute. I need to chill on the physical touch aspect until I tell her everything or she might feel guilty towards Ronan like before when we kissed.

As soon as I got here I was searching for Emery in the crowd, feeling that anxiety rise from not being near her more by the second. Then my eyes landed on the most beautiful woman I had ever seen in my life. It took a few seconds to register it was Emery as my eyes wandered down, absorbing everything about her as I studied her carefully. She wore shorts and a tank top, her hair was curled and looked as beautiful as ever but her eyes...they sparkled so brightly I swear I lost myself inside of them. My body began to move as my mind struggled to catch up until I was standing right in front of her.

Carson gave me the death glare but I didn't care, he is going to be busy with Jackie..so today I am going all in.

I couldn't help but lower my hand, sliding my palm against her warm skin as I interlaced our fingers, holding her small hand delicately as my heart began to race. One touch from her was enough to ignite my whole body with tingles.

I leaned down, watching as she nervously chewed her lip and looked everywhere but at me.

My sweet little kitten, she was so fucking shy..I love it..I love it all and I can't wait to make her wriggle beneath my touch.

"Ride the Rollercoaster with me." My warm breath fanned against her flesh, causing a visible shiver to travel through her as I stared at her smooth skin, wishing I could place a kiss right on the crook of her neck.

I wanted to see how she reacted..to know what drove her crazy and made her make those sounds I memorized so clearly from hearing her on the phone. I wanted to taste every inch of her body, to trace my tongue down every curve and place delicate bites along the

way..

"Do you think you will fit? Because you are so tall?" She teased, interrupting my thoughts and I couldn't help the smirk that pulled at the corner of my mouth. Was my little kitten flirting with me?

"I'm sure we can make room if we need to, there must be plenty of ways." I quipped back, imagining her sweet ass planted in my lap as I held onto her tight. I don't know if she was thinking the same thing but her pretty pink cheeks made me believe she was..why was she being so receptive to me? Usually, she is so standoffish and keeps it friendly.

Could I be winning her over? Maybe she can't fight this chemistry we have..this undeniable pull that brings us together every damn time.

I reluctantly let go of her hand, getting in line right behind Carson and Jackie, and noticed him shoot another glare my way. Doesn't he have his own shit he should be focusing on right now?! He obviously didn't see us holding hands but me standing next to her is enough for him to get pissed apparently.

"Em, why don't you and Jackie ride together and me and Asher can." He offered and before I could say anything both Emery and Jackie said no at the exact same time, making Carson frown.

"Pumpkin, there is no way in hell you and Asher can both fit in one car..no offense..plus I want to spend time with you." Jackie cooed, causing Carson to melt right beneath her gaze and nod his head before kissing her gently.

Em shrugged towards him as I swear she took a step closer to me instinctively..fuck I loved that. My girl knows exactly who she belongs to.

We moved up in line, our friends surrounding us as they joked around and laughed. All I could focus on was Emery..every laugh, every smile, and word she spoke leaving me completely captivated.

Suddenly she gathered her long brown hair above her head, tying it up into a ponytail while her strawberry shampoo drifted toward me. One inhale of that and I swear my body came alive. My cock twitched as I tried to gain control by clearing my throat and looking away and realizing I wasn't the only one staring. Craig, Seth, and Mikey were all staring at her too and I was about to say something when Carson spoke first.

"We are next." Carson spoke firmly, making a point to get everyone's attention as all the guys now looked away sheepishly.

Our friend Tim was the only other one who had a girlfriend, she was friends with Jackie too her name was Maddie. Then there was Lacey who hung out in their group as well..she and Mikey have a thing going on. So everyone was pretty much paired up..well Craig and Seth have to ride together but that's on them. No way am I letting Em ride with anyone else.

We all walked up in pairs of two, showing our wristbands as the Rollercoaster pulled up and emptied. I grabbed Emery by the hand and pulled her to the back as I took the very last seat and squeezed in there..I won't lie..being 6'7" is annoying as shit sometimes..besides all the stares I get I can barely fit into anything. Not to mention all the times I hit my head on random a*s signs and doorways.

I went all the way to the side and angled my legs slightly so I could fit. Emery slid in next to me, her face red and her eyes wide as I couldn't fight the smirk that kept threatening to form as I lifted my arm, placing it behind her back.

"Are you scared?" I teased, watching as she shook her head no vehemently and swallowed hard. Oh god..why was she so damn adorable..

"Don't worry, I will hold your hand bab.." Shit! I quickly cut the word off as I cleared my throat. Every damn time I do that..I swear. Emery didn't seem to notice but to my surprise, she reached over and took my hand. My heart had never beat so fucking fast as I locked eyes with her.

"Is this okay?" She breathed, her chest rising and falling deeply as she fluttered her eyelashes, her big doe eyes sparkling in the sun as I nodded my head, feeling her hand pressing against mine as our fingers interlocked. Suddenly the cart jerked forward, causing Emery to yelp as I couldn't help but laugh. I lowered my other arm, wrapping completely around her body as she leaned into me.

With every tick of the cart rising higher and higher I felt those butterflies fluttering uncontrollably..the feel of my girl beneath my arm unlike anything I have ever felt in my life.

Just as we reached the top, Emery looked at me with the most pure smile I had ever seen. Her eyes sparkled as she parted her full pink lips and spoke.

"Are you ready Ronan baby?" She smiled, her words making my eyes go wide as the rollercoaster suddenly dropped, making my heart leap out of my chest.

Holy fucking shit..did Emery just call me Ronan?!
