Adopted By Ashton Irwin

Secret Love Song

When you're with him, do you call his name
Like you do when you're with me? Does it feel the same?
Would you leave if I was ready to settle down?
Or would you play it safe and stay?

Secret Love Song ~ Little Mix

Sophie's POV

I woke up really early this morning, at around 4am. I couldn't sleep nor could I get back to sleep. Careful not to wake my dad, who for some reason was lay next to me, I walked across the hall to Luke's room. Since Calum and Michael don't live here, Luke was my only option.

"Luke, are you awake?" I asked, gently knocking on his door.
"Sophie?" He whispered, unlocking the door and letting me in. "Why are you up so early?"
"I could ask you the same thing."
"I asked you first."
"I just couldn't sleep, Ashton was asleep next to me. How did he end up there?" I asked.
"Oh, um I'm not sure." He said, looking hurt.

I walked over to his bed where he was and lay next to him.
"Can I ask you something?" I whispered.
"Sure," he said, rolling over to face me. "What's up?"
"What's going on with you and my dad?"
"I think we should wait until he is awake in the morning to talk about this. He has to be there too." He muttered.
"Okay." I rolled over and cuddled into his side. "Can we watch TV?"
"Sure, sweetie. What do you want to watch?" He wrapped his arm around me.
"How about... How I Met Your Mother?"
"My favourite programme with my favourite niece."

We watched 2 episodes but then I fell asleep.

A/N I'm sorry for such a short filler chapter but I've been struggling with exam stress and writers block and I just haven't had the time to write which has been frustrating. There's going to be slow updates from now on for a few weeks. Stay strong ily 💓 ~K
