Him ↠ afi

"Damn, you're a miracle worker."

As you can tell the date went well. After Ashton asked me to be his girlfriend, we went for a swim but it was dark so he didn't notice my tattoo. It took this whole week to mentally process the fact that Ashton was my boyfriend. He. Was. Mine.

I had the boys come over so we could discuss our summer vacation to Australia and also so we could all hang out. Calum and Abel sat in a love seat couch while Michael and Luke sat on our regular sized couch. The couch could fit three people so we made it work. I sat on Ashton as we waited for my parents to come in the living room to discuss the Australia trip.

All five of were watching my favorite show which was new girl. My mom was home and in the kitchen making coffee but my dad got paged to work. I got out of Ashton's lap when my show ended for a commercial. I was wearing yoga pants and some shirt that advertised some local business. I had my hair down and natural. I never straighten my hair because that's too much effort.

The only reason I got up was (1 to make chocolate milk and (2 to check on my mom because I believe that my friends (except my boyfriend) did not plan on spending the night.

" mom, I hope you know my friends aren't planning on spending the night and the only reason they're here is to talk about the Australia trip."

My mom just nodded her head as she took a sip of her coffee and held one finger up. I nodded, turned around, and headed back to the living room.

So it's settled, me and my friends are going to Australia for the summer. I mean I'm excited but I haven't flown in a long time. My mom is trying to talk to the adoption agency and she is trying to get the tickets. Ashton and I were sitting on my bed under the covers listening to music and talking. The boys all stayed for dinner and we hung out for a bit but Luke and Calum both had homework so they all decided to just go home.

A daydream away by ATL was playing in my speakers.

"So what is your dream place to travel to?" Ashton asked as he rocked his head lightly to the music. "I've always wanted to go to California, mainly San Francisco." I said grinning a bit. "What about you?"

"Uhh.... I actually don't know, maybe Florida." He said unsurely.

"You're so romantic." I said sarcastically while I giggled and rolled my eyes at him. He just shot me dimpled smile.

"How's Lauren and Harry?" I asked Ashton as I hugged him to my body.

"They're both good. Mom's probably putting them to bed." He chuckled. "Mom is trying to find a babysitter for them so she can work more." He said looking at me. I thought about t and then blurted out " I'll do it."

"Are you serious?" He asked with furrowed eyebrows.

"Yeah, why not, I mean then I could get to know your siblings and possibly get closer to them." I said shrugging.

Ashton and I got bored hanging out in my room so we decided to head over to his place and to our surprise, his mother was past out on the couch and the kids were playing Egyptian rat slap.

"Why are you guys up?" Ashton asked extremely confused as he walked over to them only glancing at his poor mother.

"We weren't tired." Lauren exclaimed as Ashton responded with a sigh.

"Ash, let me talk to them and you can go get changed." I said while I nodded towards his room. When Ash left the room, I walked towards them.

"Hey Lauren, Hey Harry." I said waving at them. I sat next to both of them completing part of the circle.

"How's school?" I asked trying to carry on a conversation.

"Good, I'm getting straight A's." Lauren giggled. Her laugh was so much like Ashton's.

"And what about you, Harry?" I asked shifting my gaze to him.

"I'm trying out for the soccer team next week!" Harry said excitedly. You could tell that soccer was his passion by the way his eyes lit up just like with Ashton.

"That's great!" I said genuinely happy and excited for him as I messed his hair up.

"Are you guys hungry?"
"Yeah, can we have popcorn?" Lauren asked.

I know she can make popcorn in a microwave but I just nodded.

"If I make popcorn, will you guys go to bed?" I asked as the kids got up and nodded their head profusely.

"Yes." They both said in unison.

I made a bag of popcorn and put it into two separate bowls. I gave it to the kids and then they headed off to bed.

By then Ashton had changed and also carried his mom to her bedroom. He looked so hot yet I felt so bad for his mother. She's been working a lot and I can't imagine how tired she is.

Shortly after Ashton came back and sat down on the couch right next to me.

He placed his hand on my thigh and I smiled down at his hand. I believe he noticed because he squeezed my thigh after that.

"How's your mom?" I asked breaking the silence. The tv was on but muted.

"She is sound asleep, she never woke up when I picked her up." He said smiling and laughing a bit.

"Where are the kids?" He asked the smile never leaving his face.

"Asleep." I said sharing a grin with this dork next to me.

"Damn, you're a miracle worker, maybe you should babysit them." He said laughing his ass off.

"I already babysit you so might as well." I said shrugging.

"Speaking of which, can you make me popcorn?" He asked me with a smile, like always.

I scowled at him and then hopped up. As I walked past him, he grabbed my ass and made me squeal.

After around 10:00, Ashton and I headed to his bedroom. I loved his bed because it smelled like him, just like everything else in his room, it was warm and it swallowed me because it was huge.

We laid in his bed as I ran my hands through his hair. He kept peppering my face and neck with kisses which I didn't mind. Ashton's hands ran up and down my sides. We have been dating for four days and I've already fallen for him even more.

"So what do you want to do tomorrow?" I whispered into his ear. Soon enough, his neck  emerged with goosebumps, who knew I had such an affect on him.

"I don't know but we should hang out with the boys if you want." He offered after taking 30 seconds to recover from me whispering in his ear.

I quickly kissed his cheek.
