Chapter 69
Since our town only had like three restaurants, Ashton pulled up in front of Martha's Diner, just like on our first date.
He came around and opened my door for me and we headed inside, the place surprisingly empty on a Friday night.
"Hello Carter, it's nice to see you." Ms.Martha waved at me and I smiled at her.
"It's nice to see you too. How are you?" I asked as I went around the counter to hug her.
"I'm well. You look lovelier than ever, are you doing alright?" She hugged me back.
"Yes. I actually got engaged." I smiled and she took my hand to look at my ring.
"Oh it's so beautiful! Congratulations!" She gushed and I stood there happily.
"Thank you."
"It's nice to see you happy again." She said sincerely.
I nodded and then joined Ashton to get a table, having the entire restaurant to choose from, but he chose the same one we sat at on our first date.
"Deja vú much?" I laughed and he shrugged.
"I told you, today was going to be like a first date all over again, and you can get to know the side of Ashton you don't know as well."
"Deal. But before we go into that I want to apologise for today. I didn't want you to see me like that." I frowned.
"You're quite scary when you're angry. And I've only heard you curse like once before; you were pissed." He laughed. "But you had every right to feel that way. No one should be treated like that, especially not you."
"Thank you." I blushed.
"Okay, now ask away." He smiled and I sat back in my seat.
"Alright, when did you start playing the drums?" I asked my first question.
"When I was 8, but I didn't really get serious about it until the boys asked me to join the band." He responded.
Even though he had only answered one simple question I already felt like I knew him better, this was the part of our relationship that was missing.
A soft smile appeared on my face.
"So how did you join the band?" I asked.
"Michael sent me a message on Facebook asking me if I wanted to try out to be in their band and I went over and did and then I was in." He shrugged.
"So is it scary playing in front of all of those people, I feel like I would be terrified." I said.
"At first it is, but then you remember that all those people are here because they love the music and it becomes more fun than scary." He smiled.
"So when you moved to London, what was it like?"
"It was fun." He grinned. "We were recording and rehearsing and it really felt like we were becoming a band."
"That's cool." I smiled and he sent me a wink.
Ms. Martha came by for our drink order and I continued to ask him question after question.
It seemed the more I asked the more I created and I wanted to know everything, burning every answer he gave me into my brain.
When our drinks came back I took a sip of my water then asked something I had been wondering since I had read up about him online.
"So you write songs too?" I asked.
"Mhmm." He nodded. "I write by myself and then I also co-write with the boys and a few other people from other bands."
"How many songs have you written?"
"Oh God, I don't know, a lot." He laughed at the end.
"Have you ever-" I began and then cut myself off.
I was going to ask if he'd ever written anything about me but I felt like that was a selfish question.
"Have I ever what?" He asked.
"Never mind." I shook my head.
"Come on, ask me." He encouraged.
"No, it's embarrassing." I continued to shake my head.
What if he said no? That would be so awkward.
"Car, we are going to be married someday, you can ask me anything." He reached across the table to take my hand.
I took a deep breath.
"Have you ever...written a song about me?" I asked slowly and softly, my eyes looking down at the table.
He squeezed my hand and I looked up to see a smile playing on his lips.
"Yes." He answered. "I've written a few."
My eyes went wide and my jaw dropped slightly.
"Really?" I asked.
"Mhmm." He hummed.
"Can I hear them?" I asked and suddenly his eyes went wide.
"Ummm..." His voice faltered.
"Please?" I asked him. "Unless you don't want to."
"I mean you'll probably hear them anyways after they're recorded, it just makes me nervous." He shifted awkwardly.
"Why does that make you nervous?"
"Because what if you don't like them?" He said softly.
"I'm sure I'm going to love them." I smiled, assuring him. "So you're recording them?"
"Yeah. We are working on our new album and we played them for our producer John and he really liked them." He said.
"Now I really want to hear them." I laughed and he laced his fingers between mine.
Ms. Martha came back so we could order our food and I decided to get to the more serious questions.
"When we were talking a few nights ago you said that you sent a body guard out here, why did you do that?" I asked.
"Because I was in the store one day and I saw a magazine cover of our band and I didn't want you to find out that way which I guess that's the ultimate irony because you did, but anyways, I didn't want fans coming up to you and asking if you were dating the drummer of 5sos and I wanted you to be safe and protected when I wasn't there." He responded.
"Was he that guy that was following me around that I called you about?" I asked and Ashton nodded.
"I didn't see him after I called you. Where did he go?"
"I called him and told him to back off because you were getting scared, but he was still there to make sure nothing happened."
"Oh." I said. "So when I was in the hospital and you came back from London, why were you there?"
"Because we were on our U.K. tour. When I finally got in touch with Ari and she told me what had happened I had a show that night so I had to stay and then leave the next day. Management had Michael come with me and we said it was a family emergency so fans wouldn't get suspicious."
"I saw the picture that they took online." I commented.
"Yeah, I was so pissed about that. I felt like you shouldn't have to be photographed like you were some rare animal. But everyone wanted to know who you were and what you looked like."
"And now?"
"What do you mean?"
"Are you still mad about that?"
"No. Because all I cared and still care about is you being safe and protected, and keeping Ender and Gracie protected as well. I can't control the fans and media."
I nodded.
I stopped asking questions when our food came and we began to eat, Ashton covering the bill when we were done.
He took my hand as we left the diner and we began to walk around Main Street.
"Do you want to go somewhere?" He asked. "We could go see a movie or something, or we could just go home and cuddle up on the sofa."
"I like that idea." I smiled up at him and he bent down to press a kiss to my lips before we made it to his jeep.
Once we were home I changed into some sweats and a tank top, Ashton changing into his pyjamas as well and we curled up on my bed.
"I wanna hear the songs." I said excitedly as I leaned into him, hearing him chuckle.
"I'll play you one." He said and took his phone from his pocket.
"What is it called?" I asked him.
"It's called Waste The Night." He answered, smiling softly.
"What's it about?"
"Well, I started writing it the second time I ever left you so I could go back to the tour. I was really sad about leaving you and I made a promise to myself that I would never waste a single moment that I had with you. When I got back to the tour the guys helped me finish the song."
"That's sweet." I bit my lip as I looked up at him and he leaned his head down to brush his nose against mine.
He moved back to find the song on his phone.
"Okay this is just a scratch track so it's really not that great and we messed up a few times and-"
"Ashton, stop worrying." I assured him. "I just want to hear it."
"Okay." He nodded then took a deep breath before hitting play.
I squeezed his waist as I hugged myself to him and stared at my fingers that were resting on his blanket covered legs while I listened to the song.
Taste in your tongue, the smoke in your lungs
And I need your love, and I need your love
The salt on your skin is pulling me in
And I need your love, and I need your love
I don't wanna say goodbye to another night
And watch you walk away
I don't wanna let it burn in the city lights
And make the same mistakes
This time
I don't wanna waste it, don't wanna waste it
I don't wanna waste it, don't wanna waste it
I don't wanna waste it
Don't wanna waste the night
I looked up at him at this, my jaw dropped in pure awe, but he had his head turned away from me, looking at the window.
I continued to stare at him this way until the song ended, my eyes slightly watering at the beautiful words he had written.
Reaching over I placed my hand on his cheek that was farthest away from me so I could turn his face towards me, connecting my lips to his.
I kissed him sweetly yet passionately, my eyes flickering up to his when I pulled away.
"Did you like it?" He asked, biting his lip.
"I loved it. Ashton it's beautiful." I gazed up into his hazel eyes, feeling myself fall in love with him even more.
"Beautiful song for an even more beautiful girl." He smiled at me softly before attaching his lips to mine.
I kept my hand on his cheek as he moved to hover over me after a few minutes of us kissing.
His fingers went to the hem of my tank top, pushing up the fabric until we detached our lips so he could remove my shirt.
He slammed his mouth back to mine and I let out a moan, arching my body into his.
My hands went to his basketball shorts and tugged them down a bit, brushing my hand against him causing him to shove his tongue deeper into my mouth.
Our lips made a smacking sound as we pulled apart so he could move his lips to my neck. His hand reached beside me to open my nightstand drawer, pulling out a condom from the box.
He then went to my sweat pants, yanking them down my legs before he spread my knees apart, his hands sliding up my skin starting from my thighs to my cheeks.
I put my hands on his shoulders, pushing him back until his back was flat on the bed and I was hovering over him.
He pulled off his tee shirt and I helped take off his shorts before moving myself so I was straddling his waist.
Before I knew it, my bra was off and I was gently laid back down on the bed. Ashton took off his boxers, leaving him bare, and then slid my panties down my legs, throwing them on the floor with the rest of our clothing.
I became shy when I was in such this bare state but Ashton knew how to make me feel beautiful and loved, and he leaned to give me a few tender kisses before moving down in- between my legs, his hot breath against my skin sending shivers up my spine.
My back arched off the bed as he began to kiss between my legs until I was whimpering and panting, gripping his shoulders when I felt myself get close and then letting out a cry of pleasure once I let go.
He came back up and I felt his lips at my neck, sucking and nipping at the skin. I could feel his hardness against my naval and then soon he was rolling on the condom and positioning himself at my entrance.
Ashton let out a moan as he pushed into me, and I threw my head back, my hands going to the back of his neck.
"So good." He breathed, his eyes screwed shut as he rolled his hips against mine.
"Ash." I whimpered as he sped up his movements, sending my body into a frenzy.
I didn't have to worry about being quiet, and let myself be vocal about how absolutely incredible he was making me feel.
"I'm close baby." He panted into my ear and I nodded, gasping in a breath when I felt the fire begin to burn inside me.
"Oh my God." I breathed.
The sensation inside me continued to get more pleasurable by the second until I was moaning loudly as he thrusted into me.
"I'm there Car, I'm there." He said in a husky voice as he kissed me, my body suddenly skyrocketing into euphoria.
"Ashton. Ashton Ashton Ashton Ashton Ashton." I cried out as I felt him release inside me, my body trembling, shaking, and jerking underneath him as I let go as well.
In my own state of benediction I held him tighter to me, my chest pressing to his as his arm went around my back.
As we came down from our highs he pulled out, his mouth coming to find mine.
"You're incredible." He said between kisses.
"You're not so bad yourself." I smirked at him, sending him a wink.
He laughed at this before pulling me back to kiss me again.
After we had settled down I cuddled up to Ashton's side, my hand tracing up and down his toned stomach.
"I have a question." I said as I adjusted my head on his chest.
"What is it?" He asked me, his lips turning up in a smile as they rested against my forehead.
"When did you first realise you loved me?"
He smiled even wider at this.
"Well, it was when I had left for those three weeks, before you came to Sydney, and I missed you like crazy to the point where all I could do was think about you and how I wanted to back here with you. And I couldn't figure out why I seriously couldn't get you out of my head because I'd never felt that way about a girl before, and then I realised it was because I loved you."
"I remember you almost saying it when we were on the phone hanging up." I commented.
"You heard that?" He laughed. "I hope I didn't freak you out."
"Nope." I chuckled.
"So when did you figure out that you loved me?" He asked with wiggling eyebrows.
"Well, I think I really realised it when you came to the hospital when I hit my head." I said and he raised a curious brow.
"Why then?"
"Because if you didn't love me you wouldn't have skipped out on your job and flown halfway across the world to see me and make sure I was okay even though I was. And you were so worried, and it showed me how much you really cared. But I loved you before then, I just didn't know till then."
"Well I'm glad you fell in love with me." He grinned at me.
"How could I not? You're perfect." I brushed my hand across his cheek.
"You're everything to me Carter, I really hope you know that." He looked me straight in the eyes.
"I do. You're everything to me too." I gave him a soft smile and he connected our lips once more.
"Goodnight love." He said to me and I laid my head back down on his chest.
"Goodnight Ash."
We fell asleep with stupidly happy smiles on our faces, our naked bodies pressed together under the sheets to keep each other warm.
When I awoke in the morning I was in the same position I had been in when I fell asleep. My eyes fluttered open and I heard Ashton's angelic voice above me.
"Morning sleepy head." He said and I looked up at him to smile.
"Morning." I said back and sat up, pulling the sheet with me to cover myself.
"So what time do we need to be at the game today?"
"It starts at 2:00 but I need to be there at 1:00."
"Okay." He nodded.
I took my phone from the nightstand to check if Ari had texted me and Ashton began to laugh.
"What?" I asked.
"Nothing, it's just that your screen saver is an old picture of us." He commented on the picture of us kissing in front of the Christmas tree.
"Well Mr. photographer, I don't have that many pictures of us." I chuckled.
"I have lots if you want to look through mine and send them to you?" He suggested, reaching for his phone.
"You'd let me look through your photos?" I asked.
"Yeah? I don't have anything to hide from you. You could look through whatever on my phone if you wanted. The password is your birthday." He shrugged.
"Can I look at Twitter?" I laughed.
"Sure baby." He gave me a kiss. "I'm going to go take a shower."
"Okay." I smiled up at him and he kissed me sensually once more, before getting out of the bed.
I whistled at him and his nakedness as he walked out of the room and heard him laughing as he entered the bathroom.
With his phone in my hand I typed in my birthday and was instantly granted access into his phone.
I went to his photos first and began to scroll, coming across one he had taken of us this morning while I was asleep.
You could see my bare shoulders and my face against his chest, but everything else was covered by the sheet, and Ashton was kissing my forehead.
I sent that to myself and then continued to look.
He had taken a lot of pictures of us, some I hadn't even known he'd taken of me and/or the kids, and I ended up sending a majority of them to me.
I was sending the last few photos to myself when Ashton received a text from Michael.
'Going out for breakfast if you and the Mrs. want to come with? Or did someone get lucky last night and is too tired?' He sent along with a winking face.
I rolled my eyes and then went out of his messages with Michael.
I didn't want to be nosy so I went to his Twitter like he said I could and began to look at his feed.
A lot of things were from people I didn't know and had never heard of, but there were a few posts from the update accounts he followed and I scrolled past a picture of us before going back to look at it.
A fan had drawn a re-creation of our engagement photo of me and Ashton and it was quite good. It almost looked like the actual photograph instead of a drawing.
Remembering what Ashton normally did, I hit the retweet button and quoted it before typing out a little message.
'This is so cute! You are very talented! Love Car xx'
The moment I sent it out the Twitter notifications and the bottom of his screen exploded with re-tweets and favourites.
Going back to the top of his feed I saw one of the update account had tweeted, 'Carter is on Ashton's Twitter right now!'
I liked their tweet and then went to make a tweet of my own.
'Hi everyone! I hope you all have a lovely day! Love Car xx'
After this I put his phone away and then stood up to put on some clothes before I could go shower.
Ashton and I switched places (but not without him making out with me against the wall while he only had a towel around his waist) and I came back in the bedroom where he was sitting on the bed with his phone in his hand.
"You are very sweet." He smiled at me and tossed his phone on the bed so he could take both of my hands in his, pulling me into his lap.
"Thank you." I smiled as he kissed me.
"The fans love you."
"I'd like to hope so." I giggled and he joined in before picking me up and carrying me down stairs.
I started making our breakfast, walking around the kitchen humming the song Ashton had played for me last night and looked up to see him blushing.
Enjoying that I went over to him and began to hum it right in his ear causing him to laugh.
He pulled out his phone while I continued to hum and started to video me, me leaning in to kiss his ear after which he grinned.
After we had eaten we sat at the bar just drinking our coffee while I watched him go on a posting spree on his Instagram and Twitter.
He posted the video of me humming and captioned it 'wifey' to which I laughed.
I went to sip my coffee when suddenly he threw his arm around my shoulder and pulled me into him, my face hitting his chest and my curly hair flying in my face as I squeaked.
He kissed my head and then let me go.
"What was that about?" I laughed.
"I just love you that's all." He winked, but I watched as he posted a photo he had taken of the spectacle on Twitter saying 'Isn't she the sweetest?' along with a heart.
We finished our coffee and I texted Ari to let her know we were on our way to pick up the kids as Ashton grabbed his keys and wallet from where he left them on the counter.
We held hands as we walked to the jeep and like a gentleman he opened my door for me before we took off to Ari's.
When we walked in Ari, Ender, and Gracie were sitting at the table eating cereal.
"Mommy! Daddy!" Gracie exclaimed and ran to us and we both crouched down to catch her.
"Hey love." We both laughed as she hugged us.
"I missed you." I gave her a squeeze and kissed her little lips.
"Hi love bug, did you have fun with your Aunt Ari?" Ashton asked Gracie as he hugged her, giving her a little kiss as well.
"Mhmm! We made pink cupcakes!" Then she gasped. "Can I have one Daddy? Please, please, please?" She began to bounce up and down while Ashton held onto both of her hands.
"You can have one later." He told her and she nodded before jumping so he could pick her up, Gracie snuggling into him.
I stepped up to the two of them and placed my hand on Ashton's chest, rubbing my nose against Gracie's cheek causing her to giggle.
"Hey Car, can I talk to you for a minute?" Ari asked and I moved away from Ash and Gracie.
"Sure." I smiled and followed her into the living room.
She turned around once we were in the back and bit her lip before talking. "I want to apologise to you, Ashton really is a great guy. The way you two have taken in Gracie and made her feel like she's your daughter is just amazing. She loves you both so much."
"She's a pretty great little girl. I love her too." I smiled.
"Seriously all she talked about was you and Ashton and how her Mommy and Daddy are getting married, or her Daddy- Gracie day with Ashton. I still think you are taking this whole thing too fast, but I really hope you guys stay together, for the sake of Gracie and Ender."
"I'm not worried about us splitting up, I think we're too in love to do that. But thank you, what you said really means a lot." I hugged her.
We went back to the kitchen where Ashton was spinning Gracie around in circles, her giggling and squealing in delight.
He pulled her against him when we waked in, smiling at us.
"Daddy, you no give Mommy good morning kiss!" Gracie gasped.
"Yes I did!" He exclaimed, grinning at her. "You just didn't see it."
"Do it again!" She laughed.
Ashton winked at me before he leaned down to give me a sweet kiss.
"Then you say "Good morning love"." She instructed Ashton in a sing-song voice.
"Good morning love." Ashton smiled down at me and I let out a little laugh.
"Okay Gray, we've gotta go home so I can get ready to coach the game." I stroked the little girls arm. "Say goodbye to Ari."
Ashton set Gracie down and she ran over to Ari, hugging her legs.
"Bye Aunt Ari." Gracie smiled up at her.
"Bye Gracie." Ari bent down to hug her back. "You can come over whenever you want."
Gracie came back over to me and I picked her up, Ashton grabbing her bag while Ender stood up to get his.
"Ender was a big help by the way." Ari added.
"Thanks End." I placed a hand on his shoulder.
We said goodbye to Ari before we all headed out to the jeep and then back to the house.
I spent the rest of my morning washing clothes and playing with Ender and Gracie before we had lunch and left for the school.
I was a little nervous once the team arrived and they went to get in their uniforms while I looked at the opposing team from a high school in Sydney.
When my team came out I had them warm up then felt my nervousness increase when Coach Robin came up to me.
"How ya feeling Chase?"
"Good Coach." I smiled.
"I'm expecting great things." He said before walking off to talk to someone.
Before the game started I gathered the team around me, discussing strategy.
"Okay guys, prove to me that you belong on this team, prove to Coach Robin that you belong on this team." I said to them.
I looked up to our side of the stands and saw Ashton with Gracie and Ender sitting next to him, Luke, Michael, and Calum were sitting on the row behind them.
Ashton made eye contact with me and gave me a thumbs up.
The moment the game started I was on my toes, my eyes everywhere as I watched the players. Coach Robin and I called out plays and by half time our team was winning.
The other came at us hard when the game started back up and gained up a few points until we were tied.
I stood there nervously as the last few seconds of the game played out, this making or breaking everything.
Number 17 on my team got the ball and started making his way to the opposing teams goal.
"Go go go go go." I said under my breath, a massive weight lifting off my shoulders when he kicked the ball, scoring the winning goal.
We had won.
"Yes!"
Coach Robin came over to congratulate me, and the team came over to hug me and thank me as well.
I was so incredibly happy at that moment that I couldn't stop smiling.
Everyone started to leave and the guys went to the locker room, so I made my way to the car lot where I saw Ashton, the guys, and the kids standing on the sidewalk.
"Congratulations!" Ashton exclaimed as he saw me coming and opened his arms where I jumped into them, him crushing me to him.
"I'm so proud of you." He said to me and I smiled.
"Thank you." I smiled and he ducked down to kiss me.
He set me down and I leaned into him, feeling his arms go around my waist as I pressed my lips to his jaw.
The guys came to congratulate me and I invited them to the house for dinner which they accepted.
In my happy state we went home, the boys joining us and I started on dinner.
Calum and Ender were watching a footie game on the television, yelling at the players. Michael and Luke sat at the bar while Ashton stood next to me where I was cutting celery and onions on the cutting board, Gracie sitting on the counter in front of him.
"So does this mean your going to be the assistant coach now?" Luke asked me.
"Uh I don't know. Coach Robin has other people to interview for the job, but he said he was really impressed." I shrugged, smiling softly.
"And he should be, you worked really hard on that team." Ashton said.
"Aw, thank you Ash." I smiled up at him and he leaned down to give me a kiss.
I made chicken pot pie for dinner, one of Ender's favourites, and everyone dug in, eating their fill.
After dinner we all gathered in the living room, Luke flipping through channels on the television.
Ashton and I took up the love seat, him laying on his back with me between his legs with my back to his chest.
Ender was sitting next to Calum, the two of them happily chatting away about their favourite footie players while Gracie went from person to person, sitting in their lap and snuggling up next to them before moving onto the next one.
"I want one." Ashton said to me after a while, both of us watching Gracie.
"What?" I asked him.
"I want us to have a kid of our own someday." He tightened his arms around my waist.
My eyes wandered to Gracie who was curled up next to Luke with her head in his lap as he played with her hair, Michael sneakily taking a picture of them.
"I want that too." I looked up at him and he smiled before giving me a sweet kiss.
I had my phone and began to mess around on it, going to Instagram to see Michael had posted the photo of Luke and Gracie. I liked it and then looked back at Ashton.
"Show me how to post a picture." I said.
"Okay. But your account is still on private."
"Can you take it off?" I asked and he hesitated.
"I'm not sure that's the best idea."
"Please Ashton?"
"Fine, fine." He said. "But I reserve the right to change it back to private if I feel it's necessary."
"Deal." I agreed and he messed with my account until he handed it back to me.
He began to walk me through the steps of how to post a picture and I began to search through the ones I had, looking for the perfect one to post.
"I don't have one of all four of us." I frowned.
"Ooo, we should get family photos done." Ashton suggested.
"Sounds fun." I smiled. "Okay now take a selfie with me."
We sat up and I held the phone up in front of our faces, the two of us smiling before I took the picture.
"We're cute." Ashton scrunched up his cheeks to give me a goofy smile.
"One more." I said and kissed his cheek and took another photo.
"Cute and sexy." He winked and I rolled my eyes.
I stood up and went over to Ender, taking a selfie with him and then moving on to Gracie to take one with her which she was extremely excited about.
I went back over to Ashton and laid back down on him before making a photo collage with the pictures I had taken and then he showed me how to post it.
Sitting there I thought of captions until I decided on one.
'Kisses from the Chase's and an Irwin'
"You're adorable." Ashton smiled and I tagged him in the photo before posting it.
"Hey, speaking of family photos, we should take engagement pictures." He smiled widely.
"Engagement pictures?" I asked.
"Mhmm." He nodded.
"Whatever you want babe." I said and he gave me a cheeky little smile.
"I like it when you call me babe." He brought his face up to brush against mine.
"I'll keep that in mind." I smirked right before he kissed my lips.
"They're doing it again!" Ender exclaimed and all of the guys groaned, Ashton and I laughing.
"Leave us alone." I said in a whiny laugh, leaning into Ashton who put his arms around me.
"I think someone's asleep." Luke said about twenty minutes later and I looked over to see Gracie passed out on his lap.
"Time to put the princess to bed." Ashton said and we stood up.
He went over to pick her up and she whined.
"No." She flung herself back down onto Luke's legs.
"Okay then." Ashton raised his hands in surrender.
"Gracie, at least change into your pyjamas." I said, looking at Ashton and mouthing "watch." and she nodded before letting Ashton pick her up again.
We took her upstairs and changed her clothes, and I placed her bunny in her arms before wrapping a blanket around her and began to walk her in circles around the room.
She was asleep in no time.
Gently I laid her on my bed and gave her a kiss, Ashton doing the same before turning off the light and closing the door behind us.
"Where is she?" Luke asked as we walked down stairs.
"Asleep." I smiled and we headed back over to the sofa.
Ashton was sitting up and I leaned into his side, watching him get on his phone and look up engagement photo ideas.
Not satisfied with what he found he went over to his Twitter.
'I need some unique engagement photo ideas! Help!'
I continued to watch as he scrolled through his Twitter, him laughing at how entranced I was.
"Here give me your phone." He said and downloaded Twitter before logging into his own account.
"There, we can share mine." He kissed my cheek.
"Aw thank you." I smiled and began to look around.
"Hey Ash, we're thinking about going surfing tomorrow. Do you wanna go?" Luke asked.
"Nah, I think I'll stay here, thanks though." Ashton said.
"I think you should go." I piped up. "Have some guy time."
"You don't want me here?" He asked me.
"Of course I want you here you dork, but you should spend some time with your friends."
"But I wanna spend time with you." He pouted.
"Ash." I gave him a look.
"Okay, okay." He said and I smiled.
Yes, I loved spending my time with Ashton, but I felt like I was keeping him from his friends. I knew it was his choice to hang out with me but still, he needed this.
Besides, a day apart wasn't going to kill us.
--
I know this is later than I normally post and sorry but it was a long chapter so I hope that makes up for it!
I've been trying to change my major in college so my time has been taken up by that but I should have chapters up more quickly now.
Anyways, I hope you guys had a great Easter if you celebrate it and I know a lot of my friends were on Spring holiday so I hope that was fun too!
As always, comment and vote if you'd like, and I'll have the next part up soon!
much love xx -M
