chapter forty five

prepare for them terrible ship names I made up for the couples

-

Valentines day.

At school all the couples were together and the walls had pink hearts everywhere and in PE we had to do a team building exercise. Obviously Larry, Ziall, Moscar and Caleshia paired up and I was left alone with Ashton.

I scratched my wrist as I awkwardly sat next to him on the floor as we listened to the teacher talk.

Ashton was lounging on the floor as I sat cross legged and actually listened.

"--what you would do to that person if you could and then we'll feed back." The teacher smiled. We'd gotten the nice female teacher today and she was actually sweet and she told us to start with our partners.

I turned to Ashton. "I'd hit you." I said flatly.

"Well I'd fuck you." Ashton shrugged, "Even if were not together, I'd still fuck you."

I looked down at my lap, "Well we can't. Not anymore."

I didn't see the way Ashton frowned or gritted his teeth to hold back tears.

After five minutes the teacher started talking again.

"Okay, Martin would what you do or say to Linsey?" She asked.

Martin stood up, "I think I'd hold her hand and take her on a date."

The people awed and I even smiled at the guy because it was obvious he'd just told her about his feelings. And on valentines and everything. How sweet.

"What about you Zayn?" She asked.

Zayn awkwardly stood up, "Uhm--I'd tell Niall that he needs to ask me out already."

Ashton laughed loudly at this and the teacher looked straight at him.

"What would you do Ashton?" She asked and Ash stood up, Zayn sitting.

"Well I would have sex with Luke."

I blushed a deep red as everyone stared at me and I looked down at my lap. "Fuck my life."

"Whys that?" The teacher ask and I watched Ashton smirk. "You're dating right?"

"Not anymore." He said casually, shrugging. "But if I could I'd give him the most romantic night tonight." He looked down at me with a small smile and then I couldn't do it. My heart was aching in my chest and I stood up, walking out of the gym and going around the corner before sitting against the wall.

How could he even say that in front of everyone?

I ran my hands through my hair and tugged harshly. He couldn't say stuff like that! We weren't together anymore.

Tears leaked from my eyes and I gulped as I heard a door open. I looked up seeing Ashton leaning against the wall opposite me, a sad look on his face.

"It's the truth," he said, "I would have given you an amazing night."

"I don't care." I said, standing up and going to leave again but he caught my hand and pulled me in to his chest, his forehead against mine.

"Well I do." Ashton said softly, "I love you y'know, with everything I have. I'd give it all up for you."

I whined pathetically and pushed Ashton off of me. "Stop it! You can't keep doing that!"

"Why not?"
