Ashton:

"Ok babe I gotta go into this interview but there's only six more weeks until I get to see you again! Love you!"

"Love you too Ashton!" you smile into the phone. You know that it won't be nearly as long as six weeks, so hearing the hurt in his voice kind of makes you sad, but you know that he'll be happy once the interview starts.

You watch from a closed circuit tv backstage and see all four boys walk out onto the stage for the show.

"If you haven't heard of them, you've either been living under a rock for the past year or you're mentally insane. Everyone, welcome 5 Seconds of Summer!" the interviewer yells before all the boys start smiling uncontrollably.

"So, just to get this out of the way, raise your hand if you're single."

Luke, Michael, and Calum all raise their hands and Ashton starts playing with his hands, doing the thing he does when he's nervous, where he rubs his thumb in the palm of his hand.

"Ohhh Ashton! You're taken?" the interviewer coos.

"Yeah." he lightly smiles.

"Is everything okay?"

"Yeah, just don't get to see her a lot, but you know, we really work the long distance."

"How so?"

"Well we call each other everyday and if we're too busy to do that, we at least text. And when I come home, we spend as much time as we can together. And I think when you really love someone, you'll do anything to stay with them and that's what we do. I mean, I really miss her when she isn't here but I love her." he smiles.

"Well that was very sweet. I just wish she could've heard that." Michael smirks. Luke hits his arm and Calum starts laughing.

Ashton lightly laughs, imagining that you're sitting right there.

"Well you're in luck, Ashton."

"What?" he looks very confused.

A backstage crew member taps you on the shoulder and walks you to the side of the stage. He motions a three, two, then one, and you walk out on the stage. You walk up behind the couch that the boys are squished on. You hold a finger to your lips, telling the audience to keep quiet. The interviewer acts as if nothing's wrong.

"So to the single boys who is your celebrity crush?"

"Katy Perry."

"Jack Black."

"Will Smith."

"Typical." you say proudly from behind Ashton. Ashton looks over his shoulder at you and looks back before quickly looking back at you.

"Oh my God..." he whispers.

"Looks like your wish came true!" the interviewer laughs. Ashton smiles uncontrollably and stands up, jumping over the back of the couch and kind of tripping, but you help him stand up. He engulfs you in a very muscular hug and kisses the top of your head.

"What are you doing here?"

"They asked me to surprise you." you say, pointing to the three other boys, "and he said that it would be awesome to do it in a live interview." you say, pointing to the interviewer.

Ashton keeps smiling uncontrollably and staring at you.

"Earth to Ashton." you smile, waving your hand in his face. He blinks his eyes a few times and smiles again and hugs you tighter.

"You know you're going to have to finish the interview." you smile, grabbing his arm and leading him to the couch so he sits down.

"I'm gonna go backstage I'll talk to you after."

Ashton looks up at you with puppy eyes.

"Don't give me that, I love you, Ashton, but that won't work." you smile, patting his back and walking off.

As you're walking off the stage you hear the interviewer say, "Wow Ashton you just can't stop smiling. She must mean a lot to you."
