Klaus was surprised to see Ashley waiting for him outside the dormitory, especially considering the freezing cold wind that night. He approached her with a look of curiosity and concern.

"Ashley, what are you doing out here? It's so cold!" Klaus asked, crossing his arms to protect himself from the freezing weather.

Ashley smiled warmly at Klaus, but her look was a mixture of determination and concern. "Klaus, I had to talk to you. Something important has happened and I thought it would be best if we talked before tomorrow's exam."

Klaus frowned, feeling a pang of concern. He knew that Ashley usually didn't interrupt her studies without a reason, so something really important must have happened.

"What happened? Is everything okay?" Klaus asked, growing increasingly concerned.

Ashley took a deep breath before she answered. "Do you remember what you told me at the camp? It seems that things are getting more serious. I have received information that the Athletic Department staff is planning to retaliate. It seems that they are not at all pleased with the way you stood up to them."

Klaus felt a bit of anger when he heard Ashley's words. He had hoped that the incident at the camp had solved the problem, but it seemed that things were far from over.

"What exactly are they going to do? File a complaint with the board? Fine, let them. I can't let them try to bully me again, and I can't risk my performance in the exam tomorrow by worrying about it," Klaus said.

Ashley looked at Klaus determinedly. "You are right. I think we have to deal with the bullies intelligently, but if they come at you again, they're screwed, because I'm going to..."

Klaus put his hand on her left shoulder and smiled. "Don't worry too much. There's no need to worry too much. I bet they've learned their lesson already."

Ashley looked at Klaus, her eyes shining with a mixture of emotions. She felt welcomed by Klaus' comforting touch on her shoulder and found herself enveloped by the warmth of his smile. "Klaus, you really know how to calm my fears and worries," Ashley said in a soft, caring tone, "I can't bear the thought of you facing these people alone. That's why I'm here, by your side. "

Klaus gently stroked Ashley's face with his free hand, tenderly holding her gaze. "Ashley, you are a light in my life. Your presence and your voice are more than enough to give me the strength to face any challenge. I feel I can overcome any obstacle that comes my way."

The two looked at each other for a moment, enveloped in the deep connection they shared. The cold wind around them seemed unimportant in the face of the love that overflowed between them.

"We're going to face this together, Klaus," Ashley said determinedly. "I believe in you and what you can do, but I am with you."

Klaus and Ashley stared at each other for a moment, lost in the deep connection they shared. Desire pulsed between them, electrifying the air with romantic tension. Unable to resist, Klaus gently moved his face closer to Ashley's and captured her lips in a kiss. Their lips met in a delicate dance that conveyed all the intensity of their feelings. It was a kiss filled with tenderness and passion, a moment when their souls became one. Time seemed to slow down as they surrendered to the heat and emotion of the moment.

But before they could completely lose themselves in that magical moment, they were abruptly interrupted by the sudden appearance of Riley, aka Orkoi, a friend and guildmate of Bleeding Lily, a girl Klaus had had feelings for in the past. Riley tried to hide his surprise and apologized for the blatant interruption.

"Ah, sorry for interrupting. I had no intention of interrupting such an intimate moment," Riley said sheepishly. "I was just leaving."

Klaus and Ashley quickly separated, feeling their faces blush with embarrassment. Klaus tried to act natural despite the embarrassment he felt. "Don't worry, Orkoi. Everything is fine. It just took us by surprise, that's all."

Ashley, trying to regain her composure, smiled awkwardly at Riley.

As Riley walked away, Klaus and Ashley were silent for a moment, trying to process the unexpected interruption. Then they both let out a nervous laugh, sharing a moment of relief and complicity.

"He's not going to tell anyone, is he?" Ashley inquired.

"Well, I hope not. I don't know him very well," Klaus said, running his hand through her hair. "Why? Would it be a problem if other people found out about us?"

Ashley looked into Klaus' eyes, held his hand tenderly and sighed, feeling a mixture of fear and determination.

"It's not that I'm ashamed to be with you, Klaus. It's just that... we're still getting to know each other, and things could get complicated if everyone finds out so soon," she explained, choosing her words carefully. "I want to make sure that what we have is real before we expose ourselves completely."

Klaus nodded, understanding her concern. He knew that they needed to give it time and strengthen their relationship before exposing themselves to the scrutiny of others. He brought Ashley's hand to his lips and planted a soft kiss on his fingers.

"I completely understand, Ashley. I was just joking with you. You don't have to take everything I say so seriously. Let's keep it between us for now," he said, conveying his unconditional support. "What matters is how we feel about each other, not what others think."

Ashley smiled, grateful to have found someone as understanding as Klaus. She knew she had made the right choice in trusting him and embarking on this romance.
