The CEO’s Perfect Mistake

Chapter 61 - Fantastic Date

Ashton's POV

When I heard my girlfriend sing, I couldn't help but stare, and I was stunned. The hair at the back of my neck stood. Megan has a beautiful voice, and I wanted to listen to her as I watched her beautiful face, even if her eyes were closed. She is very talented, but she didn't know about it, and I can tell that she is shy to sing in front of a crowd, but I could tell she could be a good singer if she wanted to be, and my heart swelled with happiness as I look at her carried away by her music. And I want to take her into my arms and hug her because I want her to know that I care for her.

Megan looked so hot while her smooth fingers were strumming her guitar without a care in the world while she was engrossed with every lyric of her song. And I feel so lucky to be with her as of the moment, and I am delighted that she shared her talent with me. I know I look like an idiot looking at her lovely face because of the expression on my face. And when she opened her mesmerizing eyes and looked at me, I could tell there was no turning back because I was falling in love with Megan.

I feel so happy that she enjoyed her stay at my grandfather's estate, and I don't want to go home yet because I still want to spend more time with my girlfriend, but I don't want her to get worried because I know she constantly thinks about her homework and lessons. Besides, I don't want her parents to get angry with me for taking her home very late. And I also wanted to meet her family before going home to our house in Astikoz hills. I want to know Megan. I am serious with her, and I am not playing with her heart.

I already knew that she would love the treehouse, and I wanted to bring her here again to spend another quality time. I know she is always busy with her work and studies, but I will convince Megan that she needs to have a break once in a while. I know I am also busy with the hectic schedule of my football practice, but I will find more time to be with my girl. I will never waste my second chance with Megan.

"Ashton, I am so happy that you came, and you bring Megan with you. No wonder you like her, son. Your girlfriend is beautiful, and we want her too, and you told me once about your dad, don't listen to Gregory. You are still young, but I can see the look in your eyes as you gazed at her. And this is the first time I have seen you this way, and I am so happy. I thought you didn't have time for love, and now I realized you finally met the girl that you like." My grandfather said the moment we returned to the house.

"Thank you, grandpa, and thank you also for the food you prepared for us, it was superb, and we had a good time swimming in the lake. We will come back soon." I said, and my grandpa's face lit up. I know he always wanted us to come and visit them.

"I love it that you have a girlfriend now because you are planning to visit us more often, and you take good care, son. Your grandma and I will be waiting for your next visit, and I want you to inform me in advance so that we can prepare your favorite food." My grandfather said. I can feel the sadness in my heart as we say goodbye to them. 

I drove away from my grandparents' house while Megan waved her hands to my grandma and grandpa, and I couldn't stop myself from grinning. I felt so happy that Megan fell in love with the place. I turn on my stereo, and this time Megan sings along with the artist. I know the guys in our school will become crazier about Megan the moment they hear her sings, and I felt so glad she didn't participate during school programs, or else I couldn't stop myself from feeling jealous.

Halfway through our drive, my girlfriend fell asleep, and she looked so adorable, and I know she got so tired from swimming. I continued to drive with a beautiful smile on my face, and the moment we arrived in the city, I felt so glad that we were almost there at her house. I don't want to wake up Megan because she looks like an angel sleeping, and it seems like she is sleeping soundly, but we need to get inside her house so that her parents will not worry about her.

Megan was a little disoriented when I woke her up, but she smiled when she realized we had arrived at her house. I brought all her belongings as we got inside their house.

"Dad, meet Ashton, Ashton this is my father." Megan introduced me to her dad since he was the only one who I hadn't met yet.

"Good evening, sir," I said to her father, and I could feel my knees suddenly wobbled since Megan's father was intimidating.

"Are you my daughter's boyfriend?" He directly asked me, and he was looking into my eyes.

"Yes, sir, I am," I answered without hesitation, and I heard Megan's sister giggle.

"Welcome to our home, son." He said, and I released a sigh of relief when he offered his hand to me, and then he tapped my shoulder and asked me to sit down, and we talked, and I felt so glad Megan's father loves football too. 

"Honey, please let Ashton eat his dinner first, they had a long drive, and I can tell they are both starving." Megan's mom said, and his father sweetly smiled at his wife, and I could tell Megan's parents are so in love with each other like my mom and dad.

"Of course, please go to the kitchen now, kids. Enjoy your meal, and it is nice to meet you, Ashton. I hope to watch one of your games, and I know you are good, son." He said.

"I hope you can, Mr. Corteza," I replied, and he beamed at me, and he said good night to us as he walked to the stairs while Megan held my hand as she guided me to the dining room. It was a bit late, but her mom was right. I am starving, and I can tell the same with Megan. I want to take my girlfriend to a fancy restaurant, but we don't have time, and I like this because I was able to meet her parents. 

I said goodbye to Megan's mom and Ava since her dad had already gone upstairs, and the moment Megan walked me to my car, I couldn't stop smiling because I like her family. They welcomed me warmly, and I was no longer nervous when we came across Dexter, who came from his work. I could tell he looked so tired, but when he found us on the driveway, he smiled and waved his hand at us.

"Goodnight, Megan, and thank you for spending time with me. I want to let you know, and it was a fantastic date ." I said, and she beamed at me, and I could no longer stop myself from kissing her lips after I saw her brother got inside the house. And I smiled when I made her breathless.

"I love spending time with you too," Megan replied, and she said goodbye to me. And I didn't want to leave her house, and I knew I had become a different person after making Megan, my girlfriend.

"Hey! It seems to me you had a wonderful day with your girlfriend!" My brother said the moment he got inside my room.

"Yeah, I did, and we had an amazing time swimming at the lake," I replied.

"Next time, inform me in advance so I can bring Sherry," Lennon said, and I beamed at my brother.

"That would be awesome," I said.

"So, how's Megan's brother?" He asked, and I looked at him in the eyes.

"We are good, at least he allowed Megan to date me again, same with Isabelle; I don't know what happened between Isabelle and Dexter, but I could tell they are both hurting, and I don't think Megan's brother has a girlfriend now since he was always busy with his work. As per Megan, her brother has two jobs right now." I responded.

"Well, I guess maybe dad was the reason why Dexter broke up with Isabelle," Lennon said.

"Maybe, and I don't want Megan to break up with me because of dad. I admit I am already upset with him because he hated me for playing my favorite sports, and I don't know what will happen if he will intervene with my relationship with Megan." I replied.

"I think you have to brace yourself for the worst, but I am sure you will never allow our father to ruin Megan's future, Ashton, so be ready for the worst to come, enjoy the moment with Megan, I hope dad will allow you to be with her, and he will not find ways to make Megan stays away from you," Lennon said.

"Yeah, I know, and I am hoping the same thing," I replied, and my brother said good night to me before he left my room, and I admit I am affected by his words. And even if I was so happy with my date with Megan, I couldn't stop myself from worrying about her.. I know I need to protect Megan from my dad, and I hope she will not leave me the moment my dad gets in the picture and ruin what we have.
