15 minutes later the bus stopped at the hotel.

I was the first one off. I took my suitcase and walked to our booked rooms. I walked in and saw Ashton's suitcase out side of his room. I put my suitcase next to it and walked in slowly. Ashton was sitting down with his head in his hands. I heard quiet sniffling. Was he crying?i quietly walked towards him. I sat next to him.

"Ashton?" I spoke quietly.

"Are you okay?" I asked.

"I'm fine." He said not looking up.

"No you're not ash."

"I know." He said finally looking at me.

"What's wrong?"

"Natalie broke up with me." He said, his voice shaky.

I was almost relieved that was the only problem.

"Is that all?"

"No, everything's falling apart right in front of me and I can't do anything about it! The girl I love doesn't love me back. My friends hate me. Im falling behind." He rambled on.

" there's still time, you can still try to fix things with the band."

"No it's not the band, at least not yet. I just wish I could go to sleep and never wake up." He sighed. His face was red. His cheeks stained with tears.

Ashton was broken. He was hurting and I couldn't do anything about it.

"And if you love her, why don't you tell her?"

"Because she doesn't love back."

"You don't know that!"

"You're right I don't, but I'm going to tell her tonight. Hopefully it won't ruin everything."

"Good for you ash. I bet she'll say yes." I fake smiled. My heart was breaking and I couldn't handle it. I got up quickly and walked to the living room. I sat on the couch and turned on a movie.

About halfway through the movie I saw Ashton walk passed me out of the door, with a guitar in his hand.

Suddenly I felt my phone vibrate. I looked at my text.

"Go up to the roof.~josh."

I was confused at first but decided to go. I walked to the elevator and pushed the roof button. I leaned against the wall as I waited for the elevator to stop at the roof. Finally I heard it ding.

The doors opened and I saw a trail of roses and candles. I followed it. It was dark, the moon lit up my path and the candles. Soon I was face to face with someone.

"Sit down please." I heard Ashton say.

I sat down on the chair and he started strumming his guitar. I knew exactly what this song was. Walls. By all time low.

"Hey there it's good to see you again,

It never felt right calling this "just friends".

I'm happy, if you're happy, with yourself.

Take off your shirt, your shoes,

those skinny jeans I bought for you.

We're diving in, there's nothing left to lose.

I'm gonna break down these walls, (down these walls) I built around myself.

I wanna fall so in love (so in love), with you, and no one else,

Could ever mean half as much, to me as you do now.

Together we'll move on, just don't turn around,
