Note: So...triple update because I kind of feel bad that I wasn't able to double update over the weekend...and because I really love this chapter.
Mood: 'Don't Let Me Go' by Harry Styles.

'Now you were standing there right in front of me,
I hold on, it's getting harder to breathe'
Ashton's Whatsapp Message [11:59 pm]: I've been a proper fool, haven't I? Stupid. An idiot. I've just been pushing you away. (pauses) I stink at apologies but...let me try.
'All of a sudden these lights are blinding me'
Ashton's Whatsapp Message [12:03 am]: I've listened to all you messages. (weak laugh) I miss you, too, and I wish I was there.
'I never noticed how bright they would be'
Ashton's Whatsapp Message [12:05 am]: (takes in a shaky breath) Lukey, this is so hard to say but...I'm sorry. I am. I didn't mean to react the way I did. I didn't. I'm just...I'm scared. You get that, right? I'm scared. I'm nothing but a coward. I miss you. (sniffling) I miss you in my bed. I miss you in my kitchen. (wet laugh) Even if you're constantly burning stuff. (pained) And those aren't things I was taught to miss from another man. But...I've just...I've been hurting you. I've been putting you in so much pain. And...I never meant to. Please believe me when I say that I never meant to.
'I'll keep my eyes wide open, I'll keep my arms wide open'
Ashton's Whatsapp Message [12:32 am]: Don't give up on me, Lukey. Please, don't. I need time but...please, don't give up.
'Don't let me, don't let me, don't let me go,
Cuz I'm tired of feeling alone'
Ashton's Whatsapp Message [12:35 am]: Come home, poodle face. I can't sleep without you next to me.
'Don't let me, don't let me, don't let me go,
Cuz I'm tired of sleeping alone'
