patient or past?

76

you woke up the next morning and walked gail to the door

gail-thank you for last night
he whispered brushing your cheek with his thumb as you saw ashton's car pull up

you-thank you too
you replied thankful for his company

gail-maybe your be willing to come by for dinner some night?

you chuckled fixing his shirt

you-only if ur making that family recipe
you teased gaining a kiss to the cheek

gail-have a good day, text me
he smiled walking off to his uber that pulled up seconds before..and as soon as the uber drove off ashton slid through ur door

ashton-dinner hm, i cook better

you-maybe you should have thought about that before shoving ur cock into another girls face
you aruged making him chuckle adding a cocky smile

ashton-if you hated me so much you wouldn't have let me in to bake with you today

he glanced down at your plain beige shirt with ur hair in a bun

ashton-ur outfit is super cute by the way
he tried his best to make you happier through a compliment

you-why do you do it ashton?

ashton-hm?
he hummed looking back up

you-fuck other girls when ive been here the entire time, why do you do it

ashton-it's a way i cope
he muttered walking over to the counter

ashton-ive known lyn, the girl from last night for years and she knows shes just a quick fuck when i need it

you-and why didn't you ever mention sex as a comping mechanism before to me?

ashton-because you'd see me as a guy who wants you for ur body and not ur heart
he whispered facing you

and he was totally right. if he admitting this back then you'd stay away from your feelings

ashton-since i've been with you its only been 3 times and i understand it hurts but im not sure what other ways i can handed myself without you around to help.

you smiled sliding your hands onto his shaking ones letting him continue

ashton-you cant babysit me everyday but if im with you its enough, i dont need sex when im with you it just distracts my mind from the stress and the flashbacks-

you-ashton

he sighed staring at you slightly nodding

you-i understand now
you whispered touching his face

ashton-you do?

you-yeah i have another patient who uses sex as a coping mechanism and they've gone from 32 people to 5 because of me
you smiled and his jaw dropped

ashton-how?
he immediately asked as you gathered everything on the counter

you-exercise mainly, i mean the gym was his previous hobbie do you have any hobbies?

ashton-journaling and poetry i guess but i havent do that in a year or so

you-oh wow really?
you asked in shock looking up to him

ashton-yes ur boyfriend is a poet
he joked making you giggle

you-we aren't back on that page yet
you whispered and he nodded

ashton-right so what first?
he whispered tickling you making you burst out in giggles.

you-first of all your giving me space after today
