Ashton : Babe?
Jaylee : Can we talk?

Jaylee
He grabbed my hand and walked us outside. I noticed he turned around to look at Derek throwing him a glare.

Ashton : Everything okay?
Jaylee : I have to go back. My dad wants to talk to me.
Ashton : Let's go then.
Jaylee : Oh you're coming?
Ashton : Yeah? You're my wife. Where you go I go.
Jaylee : Uh huh
Ashton : What?
Jaylee : Oh nothing.
Ashton : I'm sorry about everything....
Jaylee : Why? It doesn't matter! Like I said, you and I aren't real. We're only married on paper. Record your love song with her. It doesn't bother me in the slightest. You were practically with her when you and I met.
Ashton : We were never dating.
Jaylee : A thing is a thing. If you fucked with her you fucked with her.
Ashton : I have that all in the past.
Jaylee : And what are you going to do about your duet?
Ashton : I'm not doing it. I don't feel comfortable anymore.
Jaylee : Because of me? Don't let me stop you. I don't care Ashton.
Ashton : But I do.
Jaylee : ....
Ashton : Why do you keep pushing me away?
Jaylee : What do you mean? I lost the love of my life recently. You want me to move on? I can't! I'm still stuck!
Ashton : So you don't feel anything for me?
Jaylee : No!
Ashton : Then why are you mad?
Jaylee : I'm not!
Ashton : Cutie! I noticed your face expressions towards Adrianna! You're going to tell me that's not jealousy?
Jaylee : What? What are you talking about?!
Ashton : You push me away after you see me with someone else. You say a lot of things! When I flirt with you when we're alone it's a whole different story because no one else is in the picture.
Jaylee : ....
Ashton : You lost the love of your life. I get it. I just don't want you to feel like you're not allowed to fall in love again. I'm not asking you to correspond to me right now. Just let me heal you. Let me be that warmth. Just let me be close to you....
Jaylee : I'm sorry if I may have I overreacted. I don't want to hurt you.
Ashton : I don't want to hurt you either. Don't think there's someone else because there's not. I don't care about anyone else. My eyes are only on you cutie.

Jaylee
He cupped my face and kissed me without permission.

I froze for a second!
I wasn't expecting it.

I want to kiss him back but at the same time I don't.

I feel like I'm betraying Seth in a way.
Another part of me is telling me to go with it.

Seth is gone...
Nothing I do will bring him back.

But I feel guilty about moving on....

All of this just scares me.
