Andy POV

Dinner was awkward. There's really no other way to explain it. We just sat there. Not talking. My mom tried to start up conversations about what Ashley wanted to go to college for and he said business. Which was interesting. Other than that, it was quiet with Ashley and I sneaking glances at one another then blushing madly. I saw my mom raise her eyebrow a few times but didn't say anything. Now, Ashley and I were sitting on my bed talking about music. 

"So, you never told me what you do in the band." Ashley pulled me from my thoughts.  

"I sing." I said quietly but I think he heard. 

"Oh really? Let's hear it then." I suddenly got super nervous and shook my head silently. 

"Why? I can't be in your band if the singer can't even sing." He smirked. I cleared my throat nervously and looked at him. 

"I don't know what to sing." 

"How about one of your own songs?" I thought about it then nodded slightly. 

"It's uh......... called Carolyn." I responded.

Those times in life we learn to try 

With one intention 

Of learning how and when we'll die 

But we can't listen 

I wish to god I'd known that I  

I didn't stand a chance of looking back and knowing why 

Or the pain of circumstance 

You're not alone 

We'll brave this storm 

So my song I wrote in time 

When it was needed 

Through pain of heart or loss of mind 

Your burdens lifted 

You aren't alone 

Just know that I... 

Can't save our hearts tonight 

You're not alone 

We'll brave this storm 

Let's face today 

You're not alone 

You're not alone 

We'll brave this storm 

Let's face today 

You're not alone.

I finished and looked over at Ashley, to find his mouth hung open. I laughed slightly and felt a blush crawling up my cheeks. We sat there for a moment, not talking. I began to think he hated it. 

"You probably think I hate it." Ashley finally said my eyes widened. 

"Uh... Yea..." How the hell did he do that? 

"I LOVED IT!!!!! OH MY GOD DID YOU WRITE THAT BY YOURSELF?!" I nodded bashfully and turned my head away.

"It's not THAT good." I mumbled. I heard him gasp in shock.

"WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?!?! THAT WAS AMAZING!!!!!" I felt my face flush even more. after about thirty seconds, I felt Ashley's hand pull my head towards him. I started to give him a confused look but it was cut off when his soft lips met mine. I sighed into the kiss and wrapped my arms around his neck. Sadly, it was over as soon as it had begun it was over.

"Drive me home?" Ashley whispered.

"mhm." I nodded before getting up and walking down the stairs, with Ashley behind me.

Time Lapse: At Ashley's house

"So do you want me to pick you up in the morning or...?" I trailed off glancing over at him in the passenger seat.

"If you don't mind, could you?" Ashley asked hopefully. I grinned at him and nodded.

"Okay, well... I'll see you tomorrow Andy. Bye." He said before pecking me on the lips and climbed out. i sat there for a moment then realized that I never got his number. I quickly got out of my car and knocked on the door. a moment later, ashley answered the door and smirked. 

"Couldn't wait until tomorrow?" He asked. I vlushed and looked down.

"No, I just forgot to ask for your number." I mumbled sheepishly.

"Oh, well give me your phone." I handed him my phone and waited patiently for him to finish.

"Text me when you get home, okay?" I nodded in response before walking back to my car. I drove home, walked up to my room and flopped onto my bed. I took out my phone and texted Ashley.

Andy: Hey its andy :D

Ashley: Heeeyyy c:

Andy: What time do you want me to pick you up??????

Ashley: Whatever time works for you I guess.

Andy: Then I guess I'll show up out of the blue uninvited.... :p

Ashley: BUT I COULDNT STAY AWAY I COULDNT FIGHT IT I HAD HOPED YOUD SEE MY FACE AND BE RIMINDED THAT FOR ME IT ISNT OVER!!!!!!!!!!!! :P

I rolled my eyes before making my thumbs dance across the screen.

Andy: HAHAHA well I'm gonna go get a shower...

Ashley: Thanks for the picture. ;)

Andy: O.O no....... problem......

And with that, I tossed my phone onto the bed beside me and walked into the bathroom. I turned on the water and stepped in, letting the water cascade down my body. After about thirty minutes, I got back out and wrapped a towel around my waist, walking into my room to get a pair of boxers and pajama pants. I picked up my phone and saw an alert New Message: Ashley <3 I smiled and unlocked my phone to read the text.

Ashley: Okay, I'm going to bed. See you tomorrow. I love yout Andy xx

Andy: I love you too Ashley xx

I hit send and plugged my phone into the charger before climbing into my comfy bed and drifting into an Ashley-filled slumber.
