The Fans Ship You Together

Ashton: you clung tightly onto Ashton's arm as his security hurried you through the large crowd of screaming girls at the airport. The boys had planned to meet some fans, but you had to get to a safer environment.
You sat next to Ashton as he and his band spoke with some hysterical fans. You smiled at how happy everyone was, including yourself. You loved seeing Ash with his fans.
"So Ashton, when are you and [Y/N] gonna get together? We all ship you SO badly." One girl asked. He blushed and laughed awkwardly.
"Yeah, Ash! Everyone wants you guys together!" Someone else chipped in. You were also bright red at this point.
"Well I... I don't think she likes me guys," Ashton said quietly, not returning your gaze.
The fans turned to you.
"Do you really not like him, [Y/N]?!" They interrogated you.
"Well I..."
"Oh please say you do, you guys are my OTP. What's not to like?"
"I do like him!! I never thought he liked me."
Ashton turned to you, hope twinkling in his eyes.
"Really?" He said quietly.
"Really." You confirmed.
"We need to talk... Alone. Dinner tonight?"
"I would love to."

Calum: "I can't believe you tweeted that photo of us Calum!" You shouted at your best friend.
"Oh c'mon, it's cute!" He smirked at you.
"You look good but I look drunk as hell! I'm pretty sure that was just before I passed out!"
"I'm gonna have a look at what everyone has said about it. I hope they all noticed how blue your lips were from all those cocktails."
He grabbed his phone from the table and clicked on Twitter just as you dropped yourself down next to him. He followed a couple of people as he scrolled through the replies to the picture, but to your surprise, none of them were majorly offensive to you.
'UGH I WISH YOU TWO WOULD GET TOGETHER ALREADY #OTP'
'when are u two gonna start dating? like srsly'
'You guys are literally perfect for each other.'
You swallowed your nerves and stared intently at his face. His eyes were still reading through the replies, but you knew his concentration was completely gone.
"do you think we should get together, [Y/N]?" He asked bluntly.
"I... I've been thinking about that for a while now, actually." You replied.
"Go and get ready."
"What?"
"Go and get ready. I'm picking you up at 8, we're off out. On a date. Go." He ordered you, smiling as if you had said the right thing.

Luke: you strolled through London with your best friend, Luke. It wasn't long before a group of girls wearing 5sos merch approached you.
Luke always lit up when he met his fans; it was amazing. You took photos for them and chatted to them for a little while before the conversation really got interesting.
"So are you guys a couple yet?" One of the girls asked. Luke looked taken aback, but he concealed it quite well.
"Um we..."
"Because everyone wants you two to get together. You guys are the entires fandoms OTP. I'm serious." Another girl interrupted.
"Really?" Luke asked.
"Yeah, and loads of people believe that you're already in a relationship, you're just hiding it because you're afraid of haters and stuff."
"We're not dating, so that bit isn't true," you explained, earning disappointed nods.
The girls walked away after thanking you both for your time. For a few minutes after Luke seemed very distant; he was probably overthinking what the girls had said.
"What's up?" You asked him nervously.
"They were right."
"What do you mean?"
"We should be in a relationship, [Y/N]. Why aren't we?"
"Well we can be. All you've gotta do is ask."
"Be my girlfriend, [Y/N]?"
"Of course."

Michael: you waited impatiently for your best friend Michael to get back from his meet and greet so that he would go to the cinema with you. You hadn't spent quality time with him in ages since he had been so busy recently.
You hugged him tightly the second he entered your apartment and he squeezed you lovingly back. You couldn't wait to spend a whole night with him.
---
"How was the meet and greet today, Mike?" You asked him. You were sat at the back of the cinema waiting for your film to come on. You were a bit early, but neither of you minded.
"It was... Interesting."
"Good interesting?"
"Well I found something out from a few of the fans that I wasn't aware of."
"What did they say?"
"Well apparently the entire fam wants us to get together. They ship us, hard." he explained.
"Well... Wow." You grinned at him.
You were both silent for little while, but then he spoke again.
"I kinda ship us too," he whispered.
You smiled, happy that Michael couldn't see your blush in the dark.
"So do i."
His smile broadened and he leaned in, kissing you gently.
"I guess the fans were right then, we are inevitable." he mumbled onto your lips.
