Summer Love- Harry Styles / Ashton Irwin

Chapter 25

"Get up. We're going on a date."

Was the first thing Id heard this morning.

How romantic.

So here I was, about to go on the worst date of my life.

As I was leaving the bus Harry passed me, with another girl.

My heart ached once again.

Since when was he the type to sleep around?

Harrys P.O.V.

Ariahs eyes met mine as we passed eachother. I dodged her pained gaze.

Mentally noting to speak to her later as she spotted the girl linked to my.by our hands.

"Harry?"

I was brought back to reality by her voice as I met her brown eyes.

Another similarity to Ariah.

Before I could think twice I pressed my lips onto hers, allowing her hands to make their way down to my jeans.

Ashtons P.O.V.

"Hey beautiful." I smiled, kissing her on the cheek as she seated herself across the table from me.

She mumbled a 'hi' as she got comfortable in her chair.

I handed her a menu and she slowly took it from me.

It was clear she was on edge and if she didn't stop looking so awkward people would notice and we would soon be the talk of the fandom.

I could tell she didn't want to be here, but she had to be. As far as she knows Im the only one that knows about her past.

Which isn't entirely true.

Of course Harry knows, so why he hasn't told her yet is beyond me.

I didn't like forcing her to stay, but if I ever lost her Id lose myself.

"Hi are you ready to order?" The waitress spoke, directly adressing me as Ariah rolled her eyes.

After we ordered and ate, we left and I slipped my number to the waitress whilst leaving.

I won't be getting any from Ariah for a while, so I might aswell go elsewhere.

It wouldn't be the first time.

Ariahs P.O.V.

We left to go back to the bus and hopefully they have band practice.

"We have band practice at three. So I'll see you tonight." Ashton said, pulling me into kiss him.

The kiss was somewhat different.

It felt needy and somehow my knees still felt weak under his touch as I gave in and kissed him back.

A stray tear fell from my eye and he noticed.

"I love you so much Ariah." He whispered before leaving.

More tears fell as I was once again left confused.

Did he mean that? My head is spinning from all of the confusion.

I headed to the kitchen area to find some asprin.

Giggles were coming from the bathroom, where I could also hear the shower running.

Was the girl from earlier showering with Harry?

I rubbed my temples, swallowing the pills and washing them down with a gulp of water.

I decided to watch some tv for a while and turn it up extra loud to drain out their voices.

"Hey Ari." Niall smiled as he entered the bus.

It must just be 5sos who have band practice.

"Hi." I smiled, my smile faltering as giggles came from the bathroom once again.

"Is that Harry in there?" Niall raised his eyebrows.

"Yeah." I turned my gaze back to the tv as he sat besides me.

"About time he moved on."

My head snapped back to him. "What do you mean?"

He looked a little taken aback. "Oh, well um, he was with this girl for a long time, well a long time for Harry. He used to be a huge player. Until he met her, things happened which brought them closer, then things happened which split them up. He was so broken he just never moved on until now I guess."

"Who was the girl?" I was curious.

"Just a girl he once met, she was beautiful. A lot like you in that department. She was lovely, always smiling. Harry was head over heels for her."

His words were delayed, which alerted me that he was being careful with what he said.

"Maybe you should ask him about it." He smiled and I nodded.

"I don't think we're on speaking terms right now."

"Ashton has forbidden me to speak with him." I frowned, fiddling with my fingers.

"And are you okay with that?" He frowned also.

I slowly shook my head. "Not really... I don't really understand why Im not to speak to him, I mean maybe he sees Harry as a threat... I just would have liked to have gotten to know him before the tour ended, you know?"

By now I was crying and Niall had pulled me in for a hug.

"I know, I know. Maybe one day you will.." He whispered as he comforted me.

I was never really close with Niall, but I appreciated how supportive he as being.

"Hey guys have you seen Ash- hey what's wrong?" Michael wandered in, bending to my level as I sat on the sofa.

"Nothing Im fine." I smiled, wiping my tears. "Ashton said he had band practice?"

"No, not until tomorrow." Michael said.

Where was he then?
