His Secret Obsession
Chapter 77

(Emery)

After getting in the car, my dad was ready to pull out of the driveway just as my uncle came running o was hilarious. He ended up trying to come with us and my dad shooed him away before peeling out o My uncle even sent a few texts telling me to be good and that if Asher did anything to hurt me he wou to work on, and here I was thinking they were best buds now!

Once my dad pulled into the airport he put the car in park and jumped out to come and open my doo "I love you bug. Have a great time okay? Just don't worry about anything here and enjoy yourself, you wanted to cry?!

I nodded my head before burying my face into my dad's shirt and inhaling his comforting scent. I don when I moved into my apartment..but now that I have Asher, I feel like I am changing, that I am growin "Love you too Dad. I will call you when we land, okay?" I smiled up at him, my eyes examining his han "Asher, take good care of her for me, son." He added before shaking Asher's hand and pulling him into We both waved goodbye and I couldn't help but watch him pull away as Asher wrapped his arms arou "You okay baby?" He asked, his arms trapping me against his chest as I nodded my head and felt him "Then let's go, I can't wait to have you all to myself..fuck am I ready." He growled, causing me to giggle "Are you going to tell me where we are going yet?" I asked, turning my head to look at him as I raised "Florida." He quipped before pulling away and intertwining his fingers with mine.

"Asher.." I frowned, his answer not telling me anything I didn't already know..

"Come on, let's get through security and get you your Starbucks." He interrupted with a grin, causing n guess I shouldn't be a brat just because he wants to surprise me but damn..how is he so good at keep before I even start reading it..yeah I know, it's weird. So you can see how this is killing me slowly..

barefoot with only his pajama bottoms on to say goodbye..he was chasing the car down while waving his hands in the air right as we were leaving..yeah it riveway..I swear I was laughing for five minutes straight.

his a*s..I didn't tell Asher about that one..but I have a feeling he was getting a few texts of his own by the look on his face. I guess they still had some things helping me with my stuff, he quickly pulled me into a warm hug.

e this." He whispered, his hand reaching up and tucking a strand of hair behind my ear before placing a loving kiss on my forehead..why did I feel like I

what it was..but a part of me felt like I wasn't his little girl anymore..like I was making that final transition into being a woman. I didn't even feel this way

face as I saw him smiling back down at me before pulling away.

-armed hug, making my heart swell with happiness. Then they exchanged some type of knowing look before my dad turned around and went back to the car. his mouth pressing against my ear as he spoke to me softly. the side of my neck.

t his teeth nipping at my skin. brow curiously.

out as he pulled me along. Of course, he made sure to stop every couple of feet to give me a kiss...which in turn made my mood improve in record time. I crets?! I gotta admit, I'm the type of person who likes spoilers. Sometimes I even read the last page of a book just to make sure it ends on a happy note

After getting through security and Asher showing our boarding passes..which I soon learned we were going to Key West..which is apparently an island?! I honestly don't know much about it..so I still feel clueless but the people around us all look like they are going on an expensive vacation with their big sunglasses and name-brand clothes.

How did I feel underdressed at the damn airport? We walked to our gate and quickly found two seats as Asher kissed me on the head and looked around for the nearest Starbucks.

"You wait here baby, I will get our coffee." He said before setting his bag down in the seat next to me and started to walk towards the long line at Starbucks.

I couldn't help but admire his long-toned back as he made his way through the crowd, making me notice all the other women that seemed to be staring as well..

"Holy shit! Did you see that guy? Wait..I swear I recognize him from somewhere." one girl said that was walking towards our seating area. She and her two other friends looked like they just walked off the damn runway or something..yeah I am definitely underdressed.

The one speaking had gorgeous mocha colored skin and her hair was black with blonde highlights. She wore a baby pink halter top with light wash jeans. She looked like a damn barbie or something..I don't know why but I felt envious all of a sudden..she just looked so girly and gorgeous and here I was in a black band T with Jean shorts and my signature yellow converse. I wondered for a moment if Asher would perfer I dressed more like that. Am I too much of a tomboy?

"Shit, that is Asher McNeal..I knew it!" The girl gasped, making my eyes widen..she did know him? How?!

"No fucking way, I have never seen him out of his basketball uniform before. We better send a picture to Sonia, she is going to be so jealous." One of the other girls with blonde hair laughed, making me frown now. Who the hell is Sonia and why would she be jealous?

Then I noticed them taking a sneaky picture of Asher just as he turned around and smiled at me, making them all let out a giggle before sending a text to this "Sonia" girl I was guessing.

"See, I told you we went to the wrong college..our rival basketball team is so much hotter. I heard he will be drafted next year..oh god why is he so fucking hot!" The first girl said before they all burst into giggles once more, making me scowl.

Just then Asher began to walk over, his face full of pure happiness until his eyes landed on my own, and then he suddenly looked concerned.

"Baby, what happened? What's wrong?" He asked before handing me my iced coffee.

"Nothing..everythings fine." I lied, trying to muster up any type of genuine smile I could. Oh god, why was I acting like this?! It's not like I haven't seen girls drooling over Asher my whole life..I guess this is the first time since we have become girlfriend and boyfriend. "Emery.." He began, but before he could finish I watched as the gorgeous Barbie walked up and froze when her perfectly manicured nails reached out and tapped Asher on the arm.

"Excuse me, are you Asher McNeal?" The woman asked before batting her eyelashes and pushing out her chest..seriously?!

"Uhhh yeah.." Asher said with annoyance filling his voice.

"I thought so, I am a cheerleader for the Huskies and have seen you play." She said with a seductive grin, making me shift uncomfortably in my chair as I took a sip of my coffee awkwardly. Of course she was a cheerleader...

"So?" Asher said rudely, making my eyes widen..I almost forgot how Asher was towards other people..he always used to act this way when people approached him unless they were kids who were fans or something. He even used to be cold towards me..well atleast I thought he was..dang, everything has changed so damn much..

"Well, um I was just wondering...maybe we could exchange numbers or something?" She blurted, making me choke on my drink as I began to cough. Asher quickly turned towards me as his hands reached out and he began patting my back worriedly. His eyes searching mine as he tried to help me in any way possible. I just shook my head, trying not to die from choking and embarrassment all at the same time.

"Fuck baby, are you okay?" He asked before squatting down and practically examining my whole body in front of this girl who just stared at us like she finally noticed I was there.

"Oh, I didn't realize you had a girlfriend..Shit, sorry." She said awkwardly before turning on her heel and walking away quickly..her friends burst into laughter as they grabbed their stuff and got the hell out of here. Were they not even going on the same flight as us? Maybe they were just hanging around because they saw Asher walk away from here.

"Baby?" Asher said again, drawing my attention back to him as I cleared my throat.

"I'm okay, It just went down the wrong tube." I choked out. Suddenly Ashers large hand reached out cupping my chin. He gently tilted my head back, making our eyes lock as he stared at me intently with those silver orbs.

"Is that why you were acting weird?" He asked, seeing right through me like always as I nodded my head and fought the urge to look away.

"Emery..don't you realize you are the only girl I see..that you are the only thing that matters to me in this world..that you are my fucking life? There is no other girl in this whole world that will ever take my eyes away from you..well, until we have a daughter..then sorry..you have to share me in that case..because I'm pretty sure she will look just like you and I will be wrapped around her damn little finger." He said with a huge ass smile and my jaw dropped..oh god, why does he say stuff like this?! What is wrong with this guy!! I might just keel over right here..then I will never know where we are freaking going and what the surprise is.

Before I could even say anything Asher leaned forward and placed a passionate kiss against my lips, causing me to let out a small whimper before he pulled away.

"Fuck..if we had more time I would take you to the damn bathroom and show you exactly how much I meant what I said..but it's time to board the plane baby, let's go." He said in a husky tone, making me smile nervously as I blinked my eyes rapidly.

"Are you ready for the trip of a lifetime Kitten?" He smirked mischievously, making me nod my head as the ability to speak had lost me completely..trip of a lifetime..something he would hold true..that's for damn sure.
