Chapter 21 - Gravity
A/N: I had to rewrite part of this chapter after accidentally deleting it, then I deleted the whole chapter which sucks.. So I had to write part of this chapter 3 times and the other part 2 times:(
~
It was now October 30th and we were in Melbourne for the boys' last show. The boys had just played four shows four nights in a row in Sydney. We stayed with our parents while in Sydney. I caught up with my mum and Danielle. Danielle was doing okay, but she wasn't the best. The tumor, as mum said, was eating up her brain. She would be really moody at random times. She almost couldn't control her body at times, too.
Anyways, we are at the stadium in Melbourne and the show was almost finished. Ashton and I were getting ready to leave for the airport. The 1D boys ran off the stage after yelling goodnight to the fans. We drove off to the airport and took off for Sydney. After one and a half hours, we landed in Sydney. We split up into different cars and drove to Ashton's house where we were throwing a party. Anne Marie said that she was taking Lauren and Harry over to my house to spend the night so we could have the party there. Ashton and I arrived at his house, then started the music. We had drinks and chips set around everywhere. People were piling in, and Ashton and I were just sitting at the dining room table. Ashton left for a drink, and then later came back, drunk.
"Heyy baabe" He was slurring his words.
He started coming towards me, but I said, "Ashton, no, you're drunk"
"What the fuuck? Why woould youu think thaat?"
He got close and started grinding on me. He was touching me too, but I said firmly, "Ashton, stop"
"Leet's goo to my rooom" he told me.
"No" I denied.
"Fine, I'll gooo find anotherr girrl"
I seized his arm and pulling him back towards me, telling him that he would stay with me. We walked to his room, and started making out. His hands traveled to my pants but I smacked his hands.
I watched Ashton the rest of the night, making sure he didn't do anything stupid. When everyone left and Ashton was passed out on the couch, I started to clean up. I cleaned most of the stuff up, then carried Ashton back to his room. I laid him down on his bed, then took his shoes, socks, and shirt off. I replaced his skinny jeans with sweatpants so it would be more comfortable. I fell asleep next to him, hoping the hangover wouldn't be too bad for him in he morning.
------
I woke up and Ashton was still asleep. I walked out to the kitchen and started making breakfast. As I was finishing up, Ashton walked out and sat down on the counter, then laid his head on the counter. I put a plate in front of his face and he started to eat slowly.
"How are you feeling Ash?" I asked him.
"Okay," he replied then took a bite, "how did you stay sober the whole night last night?"
"One, I'm seventeen, and two," I gestured to my 12-week baby bump.
"True"
Ashton finished eating, put his plate in the dishwasher, then I asked him, "what are you going to do now they you aren't on tour?"
"I have something in mind"
"What?"
"It's a surprise"
"Really?"
"Yup"
"Okay, anything else?"
"Yeah. I want to go to your grandma's house and-"
"No, Ashton. We're not going to that bitch's house"
"Babe, please! I want to prove to her that I'm a nice guy. That I love you, that I respect you, that I protect you, and that I care for you, and the baby"
"Ashton.."
"Please?"
"Fine"
We left for my grandma's later that day, and we parked in her driveway, then walked up to the door. I rang the doorbell once, no answer. Twice, no answer. I remembered that she always left the door open when she was home, so I tried to open the door. It opened, and I walked inside with Ashton right behind me. My grandma walked into the living room, where the door went into, and she started pushing us out the door.
"Out, out. I don't want to talk to either of you" she said.
I fought her, and she finally gave in. We started to talk to her, but she just got more mad. Finally, I stood up to her and almost yelled, "Grandma, you hating on Ashton and yelling at me about him just make me want to go to him and hug him and kiss him even more. So you not liking Ashton has brought us closer together!"
"Maddie, I didn't think about that. I'm sorry. I just don't think Ashton is good for you" she apologized, but I didn't accept it.
"Oh my god, grandma! You can't just be mad one minute, then say you're 100% sorry the next! I'm fucking pregnant for God's sake, and you are going to need to be there for the baby!!" I almost screamed.
"Ashton is going to be the one not there for the baby!" She yelled back.
"That's it, I'm leaving" I finally said, and grabbed Ashton's hand, dragging him out to the car. We started driving down the road, and Ashton looked at me then said, "what was that about?"
"I'm just done with all of her shit," I paused, "I can't handle it anymore"
He focused his eyes on the road again, and drove us back to his house. I started crying. My grandma was the worst. Ashton pulled me in and stroked my hair whispering nice things into my ear like, "don't cry, babe" "it's okay" "she's just a bitch, don't listen to her" "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have suggested to go there" "babe, stop crying. I don't like seeing you cry". I stopped crying, sniffling once more, and we got our stuff then left for my house.
We got to my house and everyone was sitting in the living room. Harry and Lauren ran to Ashton like they hadn't seen him in years, even though they saw him the other day. It turned into a hugging frenzy, I hugged my mum, then Danielle, then Lauren, then Anne Marie, then Harry, and I even hugged Ashton.
"Well, I should head home. I probably need to clean up" Anne Marie said, grabbing her stuff.
"Don't worry, I got it" I told her.
"Really?" She asked and I nodded to her, "Thank you so much"
"You're welcome"
"Did Ashton help?" She looked at Ashton.
"Um.. Not really... He didn't have the best night last night"
"He got drunk again"
"Yeah"
We were all looking at Ashton and he was just embarrassed because we kept saying bad things about him and last night.
"So nothing happened last night?" My mum asked.
"No, mum. I kept an eye on Ashton, and he might've tried a few things.. but I wasn't drunk and I knew what I was doing so I didn't let him. I kept an eye on him all last night to make sure nothing happened with him and someone else like-" I got cut off by Ashton.
"Okay, okay, I get it!" He seemed annoyed now.
"Like what, Maddie?" Anne Marie asked.
"Like in Denver. We were at Saige's house partying, and-"
"They don't need to know the whole story" Ashton growled into my ear.
"Yes, Ashton, they do. I walked in on my boyfriend," i gestured to Ashton," and my bestfriend, drunk together"
"Ashton!" Anne Marie scolded.
"Mum I was drunk!!"
"I forgave him but then Saige showed up a few days after I found out I was pregnant and guess what. She was pregnant too"
"Babe, I already said I'm sorry. I was drunk. You know drunk me. And it's bad."
"Ash, I didn't say I was mad at you, I just said she was pregnant too, with your child"
"Okay"
"But then she chose to get an abortion after Ashton and I fought her about it"
"Wow. I didn't know that" Anne Marie said.
We talked a bit more, then Anne Marie took Harry and Lauren and left. Ashton and I were in my room getting ready to go to sleep. I was laying in the bed on my side, and Ashton was beside me.
Ashton put his arm around me, and said, "Babe.."
"Hmm.."
"We are Gravity"
"What?" I turned towards him.
"Gravity is the attraction between two objects, and I'm attracted to you"
"Ashton Fletcher Irwin" I giggled.
"Hm?"
"I love you"
"I love you too"
It was silent for a few minutes before I broke the silence.
"Ashton.." I said quietly.
"Yeah babe?" He asked.
"When are you showing me that surprise you told me about this morning?"
"Tomorrow, babe. I'll show you tomorrow, okay?"
"Okay,"
"Okay"
I smiled, "Okay"
Ashton whispered in my ear, "Okay"
"We aren't turning out like Hazel Grace and Augustus are we?" I asked, referring to The Fault in Our Stars that I read when it first came out. Ashton knew what I was talking about.
"No, Madds. We're turning out like Maddison and Ashton."
I smiled and closed my eyes, causing me to fall asleep.
------
The next morning, I woke up and clicked on my phone, 9:37. I turned to see a still-sleeping Ashton. I unlocked my phone and took a picture. My camera flashed, and Ashton stirred. I turned back around, hiding my phone and making sure Ashton didn't know I woke him up.
*Ashton's POV*
I woke up and unlocked my phone. It said 9:38. I got into camera and snapped a picture of a sleeping Maddie after turning the flash off so I wouldn't wake her. I put my phone away, and she turned to me. "Morning" she said sleepily.
"I'm sorry"
"Sorry for what?"
"Nevermind"
"When are we leaving?"
"Eleven"
"Okay"
*Maddison's POV*
Later, at eleven, I was dressed in a baby blue sundress and I chose that because Ashton seemed he was dressing a little more formal than usual. We got into the car, Ashton in the drivers seat and me in the passengers seat. We drove off.
