MUM STOP TALKING TO ME I'M TRYING TO UPDATE!

Ashton's p.o.v
Why did I agree to this stupid hangout? I 100% do not want to hang out with this guy, I told myself. What do I even wear? Should I dress horribly so he isn't interested in me anymore? But let's be honest, I'd look amazing in a bin bag.

I called my mum upstairs to help me pick out an outfit, assuring her it wasn't for a date. We finally decided on a white t-shirt with a denim jacket, navy blue jeans and grey ankle boots finished with a beanie. I decided on wearing my glasses, my contacts had been been irritating me.

I checked my self in the mirror once more and notice it was 5:25. I sprayed cologne and walked down stairs ignoring my mum's wolf whistles, kissed her on the cheek and walked out the door. Luke was already there looking at something on his phone, not noticing my presence, I approached him, tapping his shoulder. He jumped in fright.

"Hey" I said shyly. Why am I being shy? I thought. pull yourself together Ash.

"Hey what's up babe" he said, making me blush. WHY AM I ACTING LIKE THIS IS A DATE. THIS IS NOT A DATE. I told myself repeatedly.

He took my hand and dragged me along. "Where are we going?" I asked
"To get ice-cream then go to the park, that okay?" He responded, why does he seem so nervous? "Yeah sure" I smiled.

We made our way to the ice-cream parlour where I ordered vanilla and mint chocolate in a tub and Luke opted for a cookies and cream cone. We sat down in an awkward silence. "Soooo" I said, trying to release the tension. Luke looked like he had something to say but it wouldn't come out so he just stared at me. Getting bored I stood up to go but he grabbed my arm. My action obviously changed his uncooperative mood.

"Sorry, don't go. I still need to make you like me." He said with a cocky grin, back to his usual self.

"Fine" I huffed sitting back down. Luke being the little shit that he is decided to shove his cone into my face leaving my nose covered in chocolate ice-cream that dripped on to my clothes. ''OH MY GOD!!" I shrieked getting up to attack him, he was too fast for me though and ran out of the shop with me chasing after him to the beach.

He abruptly stopped in front of me making me run into him nearly losing my balance, but he caught me in his arms we were almost close enough to kiss and we just breathed into each others faces puffed out from the running, him holding me up. If we were a couple this would've been rather romantic, us holding each other in the gentle summer breeze, the sun shining and the sand beneath us and us kiss- wait what? Snap out of it Ashton, you hate Luke.

I coughed stiffly ruining the moment and Luke let go of my arms. "Let's go" he muttered.

On the way to the park Luke told me a bit about himself. I knew that his favourite bands were Blink 182, All Time Low, Good Charlotte, Green Day and Nirvana. He loves the movie Monsters Inc. His favourite food is pizza and cookies and cream icecream, he loves penguins and has never seen Titanic. What kind of person hasn't seen Titanic?

"Enough about me, tell me about you short arse."

"Okay. My favourite movie is the pursuit of happiness, I used to have a crush on Hercules from the Disney movie. I like James Morrison and Coldplay, my favourite colour is blue, I love wearing Vans and my all time favourite band is One Direction. That's all I guess, I'm not that interesting." I said looking down.

He lifted my chin and said "Oh but you're probably the most interesting person I've met princess." I blushed at the nickname and gave him a grateful smile, turning a bright shade of red

Why am I beginning to like this boy? He's a punk, wears mostly black. We're opposites. But that lip ring and those long skinny legs, and how he's inches taller than me, the blonde hair that's always perfect and that sexy stubble.

I can't think like this, I have the perfect boyfriend who is from my world. Falling for this guy will only mess things up.

Luke's p.o.v.
I arrived outside Ashton's house 10 min
I felt a tap on my shoulder and jumped round, ready to attack them, ninja style. Oh it's just Ashton i calmed my self and wow he looked breathtaking, he looked so hot I could've drop dead there infront of our houses. I suddenly began to feel hot under the collar and my hands were clammy.

He asked me where we were going and I managed to nervously tell him with out dying right in front of him.

God why is this Ashton making me feel anxious. I never get like this, I'm Luke cool, calm and collected. But this boy is turning me in to a hot mess.

Once I bought him icecream we sat down and I couldn't bring myself to string any words together, creating a tense and awkward silence. "Soooo" Ashton said trying to release the tension. Still I couldn't get any words out. This seemed to piss Ashton off and he got up to leave, but I grabbed his arm lightly urging him to sit down, realising I had to pull myself together in order to get him to like me more so I tried to push my anxiety out.

''OH MY GOD!!" He yelled when I shoved my ice cream in his face and giggled. I shat my self once he unexpectedly got up to attack me, but I was too fast for him and ran out of the ice-cream shop with him trailing behind me as I ran towards the beach. I was beginning to run out of breath so halted in my spot making Ashton run into me and nearly fall flat on his face, but I caught him, me having awesome reflexes, and pulled him toward me so we were face to face.

God wanted to kiss him so badly. Just as I was about to he coughed making me stop. "Let's go" I said, gutted. Although I shouldn't be surprised, he has a boyfriend and I shouldn't have went to kiss someone in a relationship, it's wrong. But I can't help my self. Josh is a loser though, Ashton is way too good for him.

We walked to the park and we told each other things about ourselves. God he's SO interesting! I assured him he was.

I pushed him on the swings and he yelled "Faster" giggling like a little kid and I complied.

This boy is doing things to me.

We talked about nothing and walked home together, I laughed at something Ashton said, man he's so funny. I walked him to his front door, being the gent that I am and kissed him on the cheek making him giggle shyly and blush like a girl meeting Justin Bieber. I asked "So do you like me then?"

He grinned. "Yes."
