Just for One Night [Ashton Irwin]

~Chapter 2~

Chapter 2

That night, I gave Alexis and the boys a bath before putting them to bed. I recorded on my camera while doing so, keeping the camera on the counter, away from the tub.

As soon as the three of them were tucked in, read to, and kissed goodnight, I left with Heather for Chicago, managing to keep a conversation going for the whole hour-long drive, and the nightclub parking lot was packed. We didn't care, though; Heather really wanted this for her birthday, so I was determined to grant her wish.

When Heather and I walked in, the DJ was spinning "Trap Queen" by Fetty Wap, one of my favorite songs to dance to. Heather and I looked at each other, exchanged grins, and started rocking out to it.

Ashton's POV

I watched as the two fit blondes who'd just walked in a few minutes ago, danced their hearts out to the music. One was wearing a white t-shirt and capris, and the other had on a red-and-white-striped top and shorts. I was more attracted to the one in capris, because there was just something in the way she moved.

"Whatcha looking at, Ash?" Michael asked. "Did you find a girl?"

I pointed in the direction of the two girls. "Yeah, it's one of the blondes over there," I said. "The one in capris."

"Ooh! Good eye, Ashton!" Calum said. "Go make a move!"

"I was just going to."

I got up from the barstool I was sitting on and approached the blondes.

Brittany's POV

The song had switched to "No Diggity" by Blackstreet when Heather nd I, were approached by a guy with tousled blond hair. He was adorable; he also had blue eyes and a dimpled smile.

"Hey, there," the guy said in a cheerful Australian accent. "I'm Ashton. What are your names?"

I froze. I'd heard that voice in interviews way to often to not recognize him.

"You're Ashton Irwin!" I exclaimed.

"From 5 Seconds of Summer!" Heather added.

Ashton laughed. "Yes, how'd you know?" he teased. "I take it you're fans of ours?"

"We are!" I said. "You're my favorite! By the way, I'm Brittany, and this is my friend Heather. It's her birthday today!"

"Oh, really?" Ashton asked. "How old are you, Heather?"

"Twenty-one," she said.

"Well, happy birthday! Are you two single?"

"No, I'm taken," I said at the same time Heather said, "Single and ready to mingle!"

"Heather!" I scolded, glaring at her. "You're single, but I'm not!"

"Brittany, this is Ashton Fletcher Irwin here! I'm giving you an opportunity, so tonight, you're single!"

"Well...that IS true."

"So, since you're single..." Ashton said, making air quotes for "single", "why don't we go somewhere quiet so we can chat?"

"I'd love to!" I said.
