Ninety-Nine and One Hundred Reasons Why

*Day Thirty*

Annabelle POV

It's a remarkable day. December 28, the day I was so excited for on November 29, when this project was first assigned. The day I could hand in my reasons and be gone from Ashton. I wanted nothing more but this month to be over with on that first day.

Things change. Very quickly I decided that Ashton wasn't a bad guy. That came first. Then came, wow, he's really amazing. Lastly, oh my God where has he been all my life. By the third day I was grateful I was chosen to be partnered with Ashton. That I, out of the entire class, was the luckiest in the partner department. I never thought he was unattractive, (oh God no.) but I did always think he wasn't a good person.

If you haven't already figured it out, it's the last day of the project. I need two more reasons, and honestly, if I look back on the month, I'm sure I can find enough.

I'm thinking about the past month while unpacking with Jenna. Calum and Michael are here too, along with Meghan. But, unfortunately for them, their roommates won't be coming home until tomorrow.

Thirty days ago, if you told me that I'd be dating Ashton Irwin, I'd laugh in your face. "No," I'd say, "He's not a good kid. He's rude, an asshole. He's a bad influence. I'd never date him."

99. Can make me change my impression on a person

But, now, it's hard to think of anything different. It's amazing how fast I fell in love with him. Some people say, that love takes time. I agree, you can't fall in love and immediately have a perfect relationship. Couples fight, not every relationship is beautiful and perfect all the time. But, if you tell me that falling in love takes time, I'd call bullshit. It took me like, what, 21 days? Three weeks to fall in love with Ashton.

That's amazing! You know how compatible you have to be to fall in love in 21 days? It took my dad five years from the moment he met my mother for her to show any kind of interest. He worked so hard for her to love him, and it took her awhile to see it. I saw it almost immediately and was swooning at his feet. It's almost pitiful, how quickly I fell for him. But I'm not ashamed. Never.

Jenna tells me that she's leaving because she promised she would help Meghan. So, now, here I am, by myself.

That's okay, I don't mind being alone. Actually, sometimes, I like being alone. Alone time equals more thinking. I like thinking, it gives me time to explore my mind. It lets me calm down, make important decisions, or just become a better me. For me, thinking is like my get shit together time. This time, I'm realizing just how amazing people in your can be.

Thirty-one days ago, my friends were Meghan, Jenna, and Milly. Now, the size of our group has doubled. My group of friends and Ashton's have collided and made this group of people that has all kinds of people and personalities being representing, making it the perfect group. Amelia, she's tough and feisty. Calum, he's hilarious. Meghan is hella girly. I love it.

Ashton is a smart boy. He knows how to let someone know you love them. You can say I love you as much as you like, but you really gotta show it. Don't speak, act. The way he warned his mother about mentioning my brother, it shows that he cares about me enough that he doesn't want to see me hurting. He's wise.

You can really tell Ashton loves me. Most of the time I'd be more modest, but, really, what's the point? Ever since he told me, I can't help but notice. The way his eyes shine when he sees me, the small little acts he does. He's always just so sweet and caring. He never does anything to upset me, and he always tried his hardest to make it better for me.

But most importantly, he loves me. He makes me feel wanted, warm inside. I love the feeling I get when he hugs me. I couldn't stand life without, not now.

I think I just found reason 100.

100. He loves me

A/N: aww it's short I know.
