0.3 ✦ he not only fell, he rolled

- Chloe -

Ashton Irwin has the face of an angel, i'm not joking. all the other boys are pretty attractive, but this one tops them all.

i hope he didn't find me too weird after how i hardly talked to him. because i have an inquiring mind, i asked Calum exactly what i was wondering.

"Calum, do you think the boys think i came off weird?" i asked quietly, as the movie was still playing and he seemed very into it.

"no, not at all. they probably just think you're not a morning person, i'm sure." he replied and i sat back in relief.

sure, i'm not looking for a boyfriend and i'm sure Ashton's not either- a girlfriend, i mean. i would be very sad if he was indeed looking for a boyfriend, i would support him though.

with all of that being said, i was quite happy that my chances weren't ruined before i really got to know the guy.

i was getting bored with Nemo, so i decided to go catch up with Luke.

i poked my head into the kitchen, but he wasn't there. being the adventurous girl i am, i decided to go upstairs and find his room.

when i walked up the stairs, i first knocked on the door directly to my right. when no one answered i moved on.

the next door i came to had noise seeping out from the crack between the bottom of the door and the floor. i knocked quietly and waited for someone to answer.

it was not Luke, but Ashton. not that i minded.

"hello!" Ashton said cheerily as he bit his lip slightly. i gave a tiny wave and asked him where Luke's room was. he pointed to the door at the end of the hall.

"thank you, Ash." i said sweetly, smiling as i made my way to Luke's room.

i didn't bother to knock and i opened the door saying "peek-a-boo!" as i did. he was sitting on his bed, a laptop resting on his knees, and he had a beanie on.

"there's this new cool thing called knocking Chloe, you should try it sometime." he mumbled, as i laughed. "nah, i'm pretty old fashioned."

he smiled and closed the laptop, setting it on the bedside table. i plopped right down next to him.

"so what beings you here on this fine Australia afternoon, did you meet all the guys?"

i nodded and blushed slightly, fingering the edge of his dark blue duvet cover. i kept my eyes focused on my hands until i was sure my cheeks weren't red, but i should have known Luke wouldn't be fooled.

- Luke -

she was blushing like a fool when i asked her if she met the boys. i chuckled slightly to myself and shook my head. of course. she was a cute, single girl and my bandmates were attractive, especially Calum.

"the question is Chloe, which one had incredible power to make your cheeks change colors like that?" she looked up quickly, a guilty look in her eyes.

"i have no idea what you're talking about." she replied, trying to cover her face sneakily.

"yes you do. which one caught your eye?"

"LEAVE ME ALONE!"she countered. i could tell she was joking, but there was a bit of embarrassment in her voice.

"it's okay Chloe. you don't have to tell me. i just didn't think you were one for falling so fast." she looked at me with a sneaky glint in her eye.

"so, let's just say if i DID find one of them attractive...it wouldn't be a crush. just an attraction. there's nothing wrong with that!" i nodded.

i knew i shouldn't have, but i decided to make a joke and see how far i could push the envelope.
