I Remember Us ~ ashton irwin

20th May, 2011

"What's her name?" Calum asked again as he stuffed a few French fries in his mouth and stole a glace over at the girl who was sitting with her back to the glass window and her legs stretched out in front of her; that seemed to be her favourite position.

"Hunter." Ashton answered almost immediately. His eyes landed on her and he smile got even bigger, if that was even possible. "Isn't she hot?"

"She looks like trouble." Luke asked with his eyes focused on the tattoo that was on her ankle. He had been looking at it since Ashton pointed her out to them.

"Don't go there." Ashton said glaring at Luke who had a confused look on his face. "When are you gonna quit it with all the song references?"

Luke still had a confused look on his face but then his eyes widened as he finally realized what Ashton was talking about. "I swear that wasn't on purpose but Taylor Swift and I clearly seem to be on the same page." Luke said with a huge grin on his face. "Man, I don't even have to try anymore." He smirked as he put his hands behind his head and leaned back. "The funny just comes out of me."

"You know what also comes out of you?" I asked and Luke turned to look at me. He raised an eyebrow encouraging me to continue. "Shit." I said and Calum started laughing... like, really laughing.

A few persons turned to look over at us and that Hunter girl was one of them. Ashton happened to look over at her the same time and he immediately dropped his head. Then, in one sudden movement, he picked up his empty soda cup and tossed it right at Calum.

"Dude!" Calum yelled, causing more people to look over at us. "What the fuck?!"

"Shut up!" Ashton whispered loudly leaning over the table so only Calum would hear him. "You're embarrassing me."

"Really?!" Calum asked purposely raising his voice. I glanced over and saw that Hunter watching us intently. Her headphones were out and her eyes were glued to Ashton and Calum; as was practically everyone within earshot of our table. "I'm the one embarrassing you?!"

"Yes!" Ashton said through his teeth. His fists were clenched on the table and I smiled broadly. I suddenly had the strangest urge to have either one of them throw a punch at the other. I wasn't even picky; I was bored and I thought it would be nice to watch.

"I'm not the one staring at a girl from the other side of the room!" Calum said and I gasped and put my hand over my mouth. Ashton's jaw dropped and Calum's eyes widened when he realized what he'd just done. "Ashton..."

"No. Just forget it, Cal. Thanks though; you just made me look like a fucking loser."

"You sorta did that for yourself Ashton." Luke mumbled and Ashton glared at him. Luke put up his hands in surrender.

"I'm sorry, Ashton." Calum mumbled trying to get Ashton's attention. He really didn't mean what he said to him; he was just really pissed.

"Yeah, whatever." Ashton grumbled looking over to Hunter whose attention was back at her phone. He sighed and turned to look at Calum who was still staring at Ashton; silently begging him to accept his apology. That was Calum's tactic; he would literally stare at you until you gave him what he wanted. It wasn't like a death glare either; it was one of those pathetic little puppy dog looks that you could never resist.

I smirked as I watched Ashton try to avoid making eye contact with Calum. We all knew what he was trying to do and Ashton was trying to ignore it.

"Ugh! I hate you, Calum." Ashton muttered as a smiled tugged its way to his lips. Calum grinned and leaned back in his seat. I really don't know how he did it. Literally all he had to do was pull the innocent face and he'd probably get away with murder.

"God." Ashton muttered sliding down in his seat. He ran his long fingers through his hair and glanced at the girl who was currently using straws to hit everything on her table. "She probably thinks I'm a fucking loser."

"Awh." I said leaning over to pat his hand. "Don't be so hard on yourself. We all think you're a fucking loser."
