Ashley's story chapter 24

Part 24
1/10/88

A soft muffled sound of birds chirping outside the window was the only hint that morning was upon them. Richie's blinds and curtains were drawn so no ray of light would have ever woken then up. Morning time was not his favorite time of the day. Ashley had been awake for a while, curled up in Richie's arms peacefully. She woke up with a smile on her face for the first time in a long time.
Last night was still etched into her memory. She closed her eyes remembering how nice it was making love to the man she loved. He was everything she could ever hope for and completely he was everything she needed. Deep down inside she knew they would one day be together, she held on to that hope for so long. Her other hope was that Doc would be happy about their relationship, but that seemed too good to be true.
Changing her thoughts again so she wouldn't get in a bad mood, she smiled. She ran her hand slowly down Richie's chest and to his stomach, watching the muscles ripple. She bit her lip as her hand inched lower each time her hand moved down his stomach. He moaned softly, just the little sign she was waiting for. She moved her hand lower still feeling his warm skin in her palm. She delicately kissed his chest as she moved her hand around him. He moved his hands in her hair and moaned again.
“Good morning,” she whispered as she bit his chest gently.
He laughed and moaned at the same time. Ashley rose up, her hair falling down around her face and his chest. She slowly straddled him, her lips running down his chest to his waist, her hair dragging along with her. When she kissed back up his stomach she stopped at his chest and raised her head to look at him as he pulled the hair out of her face.
“I could wake up like this for the rest of my life,” he said with a low rough voice.
Ashley smiled as she lowered herself down on him biting his neck. His arms embraced her as he moved his hips up against her open legs. They both moaned as he became buried deep inside her.
“Are you awake?” She asked softly in his ear.
She was prepared when he flipped her over on her back. “What do you think?” He asked her.
He left her breathless again. Collapsing on top of her he moaned appreciatively.
Ashley got up out of bed and walked towards his bathroom. Richie whistled at her and she turned around and giggled at him. “Come take a shower with me. I need someone to wash my back.” "Can I wash your front too?" He asked grinning wickedly.
Ashley stopped in the doorway of the bathroom and turned around to him. He was already there at her. She looked up at him and winked. “I'll wash yours if you wash mine.” "Now that is an offer I can't refuse," He said picking her up over his shoulder.
She giggled as he carried her into the bathroom, sitting her down by the shower. She let him run the water, and then she got in. Richie got in behind her, embracing her waist and pulling her back to him.
He reached for the soap that was in the holder in front her. He lathered it in his hands then applied it to the front of her body as she leaned back against him. She moaned as he cupped her breasts, playing with her nipples. She arched her back, biting down on her bottom lip. He used one foot to move her legs further apart and bent down just enough to burry himself into her again.
She reached back and fisted both of her hands in his hair as he continued to wash her chest, slowly moving inside her at the same time. He loved the view of her body he had as he continued moving his hands around her breasts. She moaned, resting her head back on his shoulder. He kissed her cheek, feeling her satisfaction was drawing near. He nibbled on her ear, gently sucking on her earlobe whispering to her as she reached her climax. He continued on, moving Ashley's legs further apart. He groaned, rolling her nipples between his fingers releasing himself inside her.
She collapsed against his back panting. She started laughing, making him laugh with her.
“You were supposed to wash me baby,” she said up at him as she rested her head back on his shoulder.
He kissed her cheek, “You got washed. I'm very talented see. I can do two things at once.” Ashley's giggled. Finding just enough strength in her legs to support her, she turned around to him.
“My turn.” Richie's grinned at her as he handed her the soap. “I'm not THAT talented, “she laughed.
“You're pretty damn talented,” he said as she started washing his chest.
Ashley shook her head still laughing at his comment. She ran her soapy hand down his chest to his stomach and on to other parts. Richie closed his eyes and moaned as she continued. Ashley kissed his lips tenderly, deciding she could have some fun with him. As she stroked him with her hand, Richie bit at her neck, then her ear.
When she was done, he kissed her lips. “That's talent,” He said as he pulled away.
She smiled seductively up at him, her fingers trailing down his chest. “You're just too easy.”
Richie shook his head, “No, you're just that damn good.” After they finally got done with their shower, they got out as the doorbell rang.
“Who the hell could that be?” Richie asked as he started drying off.
Ashley shrugged her shoulders as she wrapped her hair up in a towel. “Someone that doesn't know you like to sleep late, it seems.”
The doorbell rang again and Richie opened the bathroom door to find some clothes. “I'll be right back,” He said to her, kissing her lips as he put on his jeans, not bothering to put on any underwear.
Ashley wrapped a towel around her as he went off to answer the door.
Walking to the door, Richie saw Doc standing at the glass. Doc waved as he saw Richie coming to open it.
“Did I wake you up?” Doc asked as Richie opened the door.
Richie shook his head. “No not really. What's up?” Doc gave him a sideways glance. “I need to talk to you, can I come inside?” Richie moved out of Doc's way and let him inside. He closed the door and then followed Doc into the living room. The first thing Richie saw was the robe Ashley left at the stairway. Doc saw it too.
"Do you have company left over from last night?" He asked as he turned around.
"Yes I have company."
Doc smiled, knowing he had now caught Richie cheating on Ashley. He smugly looked at him ready to tell him so when he saw Ashley coming down the stairs in a white robe with a towel on her head.
"What in the hell are YOU doing here?" Doc asked angrily.
Ashley pulled the towel from her head. “If you must know Doc I spent the night” Doc turned to Richie and glared at him. “You fucked my daughter?” Ashley was appalled at the word he had used. She was about to speak when Richie cleared his throat. "I wouldn't call it that Doc."
“WHAT WOULD YOU CALL IT!?"
“It's none of your business,” Ashley said.
“NONE OF MY BUSINESS!” Doc shouted.
Ashley stared at him and that made Doc more irate.
“You just started dating him and after all my warnings you let him take your virginity last night?"
"I lost my virginity a long time ago," Ashley said.
Richie cursed under is breath and shook his head.
"And just when was that?" Doc demanded
“I'm not discussing this with you Doc,” Ashley said as she folded her arms across her waist.
“I want some answers.” Doc ordered.
Ashley laughed. “Fine, you want to know…Mexico.” "Mexico?” He then turned to look at Richie. “You son of a bitch, you lied to me." Doc said to Richie.
“He didn't do anything I didn't want,” Ashley said in his defense.
"Don't give me that shit! You were inexperienced you didn't know what you wanted."
“I know that I am in love with him.” Ashley said. Doc started laughing but she continued. “You just don't understand.” "You're damn right I don't understand! All I see is a man who is old enough to know better taking advantage of my daughter. You had no right to touch her you bastard!" Doc said to Richie again.
Richie stood there glaring at Doc. He put his arm around Ashley, trying to remain calm. “I'm sorry that I lied to you, but we thought it was for the best. Judging by your actions now, we were right.” “You two have been going behind my back since Mexico?” Doc asked.
Ashley shook her head. “Before Mexico.”

“Before Mexico! So you just fucking lied to me to get in her pants!” Richie shook his head, “No…” “NO! So what you think I am actually going to believe that you love her?” Doc laughed.
Richie took a deep breath and shook his head, seeing Doc wasn't going to understand anything.
Doc looked at Ashley. “You know all about his reputation.” Richie rolled his eyes. “That's in the past. I haven't lied to her; she knows how I was before I met her.”

Doc laughed at him but Richie continued. "Being with Ashley has taught me what love is."
"Love isn't something you feel with your dick, RICHARD! You fuck anything that doesn't have a dick between its legs.” “Fuck you Doc! I don't have to listen to this in my own house,” Richie said loudly.
Doc nodded his head. "Enjoy your life, Ashley. But don't come to me when you find out he's used you."
He turned to leave but Richie grabbed his arm and stopped him. "You can't walk out on her like that. You did it when she was younger. Can't you just be a father and be there for her instead?"
“You bastard,” Doc said as he took a swing at him.
Ashley moved to grab Richie, “STOP IT! BOTH OF YOU JUST STOP!” She screamed.
Doc went to the door as Ashley pushed Richie towards the stairs. She turned back to Doc. “You need to leave,” said with an uneven, shaky voice.
When the door slammed shut, Richie darted past Ashley as she begged him to stop. He opened the door.
“You are making the mistake Doc. Ashley's your daughter."
"She was my daughter. You ruined that when you took her away from me," Doc said without looking back at him.
Doc got into his car and slammed the door preventing Richie from adding anything to that remark.
Ashley stood next to Richie watching as the car pulled out of the drive and onto the road.
"What a prick,” Richie mumbled under his breath. He turned to Ashley and put his arm around her. “I'm sorry.” Unshed tears glistened in her eyes and he knew just how much that confrontation had hurt her. He wished there had been a way to avoid it and he resolved to find a way to make Doc come around. Ashley moved from the door and Richie stopped her.
“Ashley.” “I'm going back upstairs.” “I'll make some coffee, okay?” She barely nodded her head as she walked away from him.
She nodded her head and went on to the stairs. Richie watched her walk up them and then went into the kitchen. He had to think of something to make the situation better and NOT being with her was an option he refused to even consider.
After the coffee was made, Ashley still hadn't come down so Richie went to find her. He walked into his bedroom and saw her on the bed, curled up on her side her back facing away from the door. He walked over to the foot of the bed and crawled up in front of her, lying down beside her. Her eyes were red; it was obvious that she had been crying.
He drew her close to him. “I love you,” he whispered as he held her tight against him.
He caressed her back and spoke so softly she had to strain to hear. "Somehow, someway I'll make this work. I swear I will."
“What if it doesn't? I can't do this to you, this is your career,” she sobbed.
"My career has nothing to do with this. They are two separate things Darlin'. Doc will come around and see things our way even if I have to beat it in to him."
She was about to tell him he couldn't do that when she looked up and caught the twinkle shining in his deep brown eyes. She pulled herself up to his lips and kissed him softly. He held her close as his hand cupped the back of her head and his lips answered hers in a deep kiss full of love and meaning.
