Emerson's POV

We pull up in the drive way around 12:00 o'clock. Macy and Luke have already made it home I'm guessing. Ashton parks the car and sighs. I bite my lower lip thinking of something to say. I sigh and look over at Ashton. He has his hands on the wheel and staring straight ahead.

"Thanks for driving me." I say and look over at him. He nods. "Anytime Em." I shiver slightly, did he just call me Em? I open the door and grab my bag. Ashton opens his door and gets out. Macy and Luke are standing outside on the porch. I smile slightly at Macy and she looks at Ashton.

"Me and Luke will be inside Em." She says to me and grabs Luke's hand. She winks and They walk into the house and shut the door. Why did she have to leave me? I mean come on. I look at Ashton.

"I should be getting home. It's getting late." He says and starts slightly walking backwards.

"I mean- you can stay the night if you want. Luke's not going to care and I mean we have room." I say rambling. Oh my God why does he make me feel like this? I look up at him.

He smiles. "Yeah that'd be awesome. Let me grab my keys." He walks to his car and turns it off, locking the doors.

I smile and walk into the house with him behind me. Macy and Luke are on the couch looking through Netflix. I start walking into the living room when I trip on something. I look down to see Calum passed out on the floor.

"Why's Cal on the floor?" I ask and raise my eyebrow.

"Well you see, nobody felt like hauling his big ass upstairs or any further than that," Luke says pointing to the floor, "so we just dropped him there."

I busted out laughing along with Ashton and Macy. I kick my converse off and put them beside the door.

"I'm going to change in the bathroom." I say and walk down the hall, to the bathroom. I shut the door and lock it. Unzipping my bag, I grab my sweats and t shirt. I take my top off and throw my shirt on. Why does my hair have to be frizzy? I try my best to tame my thick, frizzy hair. Is Ashton going to be comfortable staying here? He knows Luke so I'm pretty sure he might. I wipe my lipstick off and fix my smugged eye liner. I slip my sweat pants on and look at myself in the mirror. Praying I look somewhat presentable, I open the door and walk back into the living room.

Ashton has sat on the smaller couch, while Macy and Luke are on the big one. Should I sit by Ashton? Maybe he wants to be alone. Damn Emerson just sit by the boy, I think to myself and go sit beside Ashton. He throws his arm around the back of the couch. I smirk slightly at my lap and then look up to Macy.

"What do you guys want to watch?" Luke asks us.

I look over to Ashton who shrugs. Damn just shrugging he looks perfect. I shouldn't be thinking about another guy, I just broke up with Mikey.

"We can watch something romantic." Macy nudges Luke and smirks. Luke wraps his arm around her shoulders and kisses her forehead.

"If you make me watch one more love movie, I swear I'll rip my eyes out." He says smiling.

"Damn, violent are we Lucas?" I say smirking at him.

Macy hits his arm, "don't act like you don't like romance movies! You cried in Titanic!" She laughs.

"That doesn't count! I felt bad for the poor boy dying because she didn't scoot her ass over!" He rolls his eyes.

I look at Ashton, who giggles. Oh my God. His laugh. I smile at him.

We finally decide on some romantic movie. Half way through the movie though. Macy's asleep on Luke's shoulder and Luke's nodding off every now and then, but then waking up and checking on Macy. He's very protective of her.

I shiver slightly. Luke keeps it freezing in this damn house.

"Do you want a blanket?" Ashton whispers to me. I nod and he walks to grab one off the chair. He covers me and himself up in it, making us get a little closer to each other. While this happens, Luke's head drops down, making him wake with a start.

"What time is it?" Luke asks me.

I shrug, "maybe around 1:30 in the morning. I'm not sure."

He looks at Macy and shakes her softly, "May, come on love, let's get upstairs." She sighs and stands up. She sees me and Ashton and smirks, sleepily.

"Goodnight Em, Ashton." She says and starts walking up the stairs. Luke waves at us and heads upstairs with Macy, leaving us alone.

"Are you tired?" Ashton asks me softly. I yawn, without warning and giggle.

"I guess I'm more tired than I thought." I say to him and cover up more. I lay my head on his shoulder, without thinking about it. He wraps his arm around my back and pulls me closer. His arms are so muscular. I smell his aftershave, breathing it in.

"Are you okay with cuddling with me? I don't want to pressure you, after what happened tonight." He says to me.

I look up at him. "I just don't want to jump into anything to fast you know?"

He nods and looks down at me, "friends can still cuddle though." He smiles slightly.

I giggle and cuddle into him. "That's true." I say, tiredly. I'm so tired and sleep came faster than I thought it would.

******

I was very drowsy when Ashton carried me to the big sofa. He laid beside me and covered us up. I shifted and put my head on his shoulder, his arm around me, holding me to him.

"Goodnight Ashton." I whisper softly.

"Goodnight Em."
