Road Trip (a short story/one shot)

The rain was still pouring down in buckets, banging off the windshield of the car. I sat quietly trying to hear the sound of someone coming over the deafening roar. Suddenly, the car door opened and Ast flung himself inside. He'd only been out there a couple of minutes and he was already soaked to the bone.

"It's no use, there's nothing. The next town is like three miles from here and I can't see a thing in this rain"

"It would be us wouldn't it" I laughed half heatedly.

We were currently sat in a 4x4 rental somewhere in the middle of nowhere in Ireland. A group of us had been invited to stay at a manor but we had arranged to stay the night in a B&B to rest. When the rain had started the car had veered off the road and got stuck in mud. Now it looked like we'd be here till morning.

"We'll have to get in touch with the others in the morning and just sleep in here" I said. "There's some blankets in the back" I continued crawling into the backseat to get them.

He set up the drivers seats so they laid down and we could use them as beds and we stayed like that for a while chatting.

It was nice to finally be able to get along again like normal friends, though I wouldn't deny that I still had feelings for him.

Though it had ended between us only half a year ago and we had moved on. It was just nice to have my best friend back.

"Sooo..." I said when the conversation slowed. "How are things with Rachel?"

"Er, alright, I suppose"

"Wow. That bad huh?"

"What do you mean?" He asked sitting with the blanket around him, his breath freezing in the air.

"Well, when you ask about a relationship the reply should at least be 'great'" I giggled.

He was silent for a while, then;

"She's cheating on me"

"Oh" I hadn't been expecting that, I knew she was a bitch but, really? I didn't even think she was like that.

"And the thing is...I don't feel right about it" He said.

"What do you mean?" I sat up, he sounded confused, my immediate reaction was to try and help.

"I don't feel hurt, sad, or even angry." He said.

"Well, isn't that a good thing?" I asked sitting closer to him.

"I don't know. I suppose not but it means that all this time I probably haven't been in love with her. In fact I've just been lying to myself about being ok ever since...." He trailed off, but I knew what he would have said: 'ever since we broke up'

I'd been hoping not to get on to this topic. We'd only just started acting normal round each other again, and I didn't want to ruin that.

"I've missed you"

The comment caught me off guard,and I looked up to see that we were actually much closer than I'd realised. Why was he doing this? He was the one who broke up with me so why would he miss me?

"Don't" I moaned. "Please, just don't do this now"

"Why?" He asked quietly.

"Because" I replied trying to keep my voice level. "We've only just started to be normal friends again. I don't want to risk us losing that again"

"Well I don't want to be your friend and to be honest I've hated every minute of it. That's not how we're supposed to be Ally" his voice was rough and unsteady. He sounded like he might start yelling or crying at any moment and to be honest I felt the same.

I looked up into his eyes, searching. What was this all about? Was it revenge on Rachel? Was he just in the mood and I was here? Or did he mean it? I so wanted it to be the last one. My eyes dropped from his, which were staring into mine intensely, to his lips. Lips I must have kissed a thousand times, but over time I'd forgotten what it felt like.

"But what if-"

But I never got to finnish my argument, I don't even know what it would have been.

Aston's lips crushed into mine, powerful and strong. Not strong enough.

My arms went around his neck, my fingers tangling into his hair, trying to get him closer to me. It felt like I hadn't touched him in years, not months. After a while his lips slowed, and became more gentle. I loosened my grip on him but didn't let go while we smiled at each other, catching our breath.

He started to kiss me again, more slowly this time, his lips moulding effortlessly into mine. His tongue grazed my lower lip, making me shudder with pleasure. Whatever thoughts I'd had moments ago had gone, all I wanted was him. And I wanted all of him.

He pulled me onto him, still kissing me, so that I was straddling his lap. I cradled his jaw in my hands while his caressed my body. My hips, my legs, my hair, my back, my chest. Then they were pulling off my jacket and my top, he began to kiss along my jaw and then down my neck to my chest, leaving my skin burning hot where he touched it. He was driving me insane, so I tugged of his shirt and pushed him down so that he was laying on the car seat. I leant over him, kissing down his chest, tracing the shapes of his muscles with my fingers and sending shivers through his body. I stopped when I got to the waistband of his trousers, kissing and stroking his v lines before making my way back up to his lips.

His hands found the clasp of my bra, undoing it easily and pulling it off. He rolled over, pulling me so that now I lay under him. Now it was his turn, he made his way slowly down my body leaving a trail of hot kisses. When he got to my jeans he didn't stop, just undid the button and zip and tugged them off easily. The heat of both our body's had heated the car so that even though I was only wearing my pants I wasn't cold any more, the shivers my body now gave off were pure pleasure.

"I've missed this" I smiled as his kissed went lower, down my stomach to my hips.

"Me too" he breathed against my skin.

A soft moan escaped my lips as his hands moved to my inner thigh, getting higher and driving me wild with each touch.

"Please" I whimpered. Understanding me instantly he pushed himself up onto his knees and pulled of my last piece of clothing, slowly. I sat up, unbuttoning his jeans and removing them then his boxers, until there was nothing between us.

* * *

We both lay there, panting slightly, wrapped in one of the blankets we'd used earlier. I sat up and wound the window down to try and clear some of the condensation that had gathered on the windows. Then I lay back down, resting on his chest, while I brushed some his damp hair off his head. He smiled back at me and neither of us said anything because we didn't need to. Within 10 minuted we had both drifted off to sleep, exhausted.

A/N

Hi guys so this is just a short story. It was a scene that me and a friend worked on and was originally going to be in my longer fanfic Ally that I'm writing now, but I changed it so that instead of being ex's, Aston and Ally were old friends. So I couldn't really use the scene anymore, but I really liked it so I just worked on it and decided to post it as a short story. The character Ally is based on the girl from my other fanfic, and please give that a read too!!

Vote, comment if you have any other ideas and share the story! Thank you!
