Hidden ~ A joe sugg fanfiction

Chapter 4

Joes p.o.v
Troye and Caspar joked about me and Ashley "hugging for hours" but honestly I actually could hug her for hours.

I let go and I finally felt the coldness of the rain hit me. I glanced down at Ashley. She was soaking wet but oh lord she looked good. She looked like a fricken goddess.

Omg Why am I thinking these things. Ashley is just a friend. That's all she'll ever think of me. I'm only ever gonna be a friend to her so I need to get these thoughts out of my head.

As she jumped in the car i closed the door behind her and slipped into the driving seat. Caspar handed me the keys and I started the engine. The engine roared to life and I adjusted my mirror so that I could see out the back properly.

(But also so that I had a good view of Ashleys gorgeous smile). I smiled at her through the mirror and she returned the smile. I could feel myself blush and then Caspar nudged me slightly. I turned to him quickly with a glare before reversing out of the spot and driving out of the airport pick up point. I paid for the ticket and set of on the motorway.

I glanced at Ashley as she put her earphones in. And then suddenly I could hear Troyes album blaring out of her earphones. I couldn't help but smile as I pulled out "blue neighbourhood" and inserted it into the cd slot.

Troye lifted his head and met my gaze in the mirror as he noticed the cd. His smile grew wide and turned to Ashley. I pressed play and "heaven" began blaring out the speakers. Ashleys earphones fell out as she realised that I had turned on the same song she was listening to. Her smile filled with joy and then turned to one of content as she gazed up at me and then out the window, not wanting to distract me while I was driving.

As we made it off the motorway I turned the music down slightly and Caspar began asking Troye and Ashley about LA.

"How's la guys? I mean how long has it been? A year?!"
"Yeah a year, it's gone so fast" Troye smiled at me.
"A year?! It's gone so quick, I remember Ashley calling me saying that she had just moved in with Troye and she wanted to Skype so that she could show me the apartment but It was like 3 am here in England." I laughed and everyone else chimed in as we broke out into fits of laughter.

"That's our Ashley" Troye said chuckling to himself. We all smiled.

"So did she show you the apartment anyway then?" Caspar asked.

"Yes. But I'd listen to Ashley talk to me all day and night." I smiled but then I suddenly realised that Ashley was in fact in the car with us and the overbearing silence was drowning me.

I wanted to see her expression at what I had said and I could feel myself blush. I probably looked like a tomato right now.

Ashleys p.o.v
I was stunned by what Joe had said. It honestly meant so much to know that Joe would listen to what I had to say no matter what and that we were that close. I couldn't have asked for a better friend.

Finally Joe looked up at me through the mirror and I smiled at him showing my appreciation. God I love that boy.

Wait. Ok I love him but just as a friend. I suddenly got very flustered and my heart was beating fast at what he had just said. No Joe would never like me in that way so I have to stop myself from falling for him. Gosh this was going to be hard.
