The Butterflies Will Live Forever (Adopted by 5SOS)

Chapter 30

-Ashton's POV-

I woke up to the sound of the alarm I set on my phone. I shut it off before it could wake up Jasmine and slowly got out of bed.

I used the bathroom and washed my hands, before heading to the kitchen to make some coffee.

While waiting for the coffee to brew, I thought about what we need to do today. We have nothing this morning, but tonight is a concert and a meet and greet. I'm not sure what we should do for Jasmine, though. After last night, I don't want to be to far from her, incase something happens. I promised her that I would be there for her, that I would help her. I plan on keeping that promise.

My thoughts were interrupted by the lads walking into the room. We each have a room key to each other's rooms because basically, whoever Jasmine wants to sleep with her that night will stay in this room and the others sleep in the other room. 

They came over in just gym shorts, but at least they weren't only in boxers.

"You got coffee?" Michael asked.

"Yep." I replied. I grabbed 4 cups and started making everyone coffee the way they like it, while they watched tv.

I handed everyone their cups and sat down with my own.

"Hey, I heard some moving around in here last night. Did something happen?" Calum asked.

Everyone looked at me and I sighed. "Do you remember that time I was going through a ton of stuff and I punched that mirror?" I asked, hoping they would get it. It happened to me once. I broke a mirror, and my wrists started itching, and they had to pull me away from it because I couldn't decide if I wanted to grab a piece of the glass, or not.

"Yeah, I do." Luke said and the others nodded.

"She had a nightmare and went to drink some water and she dropped the glass, and basically what happened to me that time, happened to her." I summed everything up.

"Poor thing." Calum said while he cuddled into Luke's side. Calum is the more feminine one of the couple.

"When are you going to announce your relationship?" Michael asked them.

"We've discussed it, and we decided to go ahead and tell them tonight at the concert." Luke said.

"Management probably won't like it." Calum thought out loud while Luke wrapped his arm around Calum protectively.

"They can fuck themselves! You guys are happy together and they aren't going to change that." I said. 

They smiled at me and Luke kissed Calums temple.

We watched some more tv before Jasmine woke up.

"G'morning, dad!" She said.

The others looked at her confusingly because yesterday she wouldn't call me dad.

"Good morning. You hungry?" I asked her.

"Do we have to go anywhere this morning?" She asked.

"No, why?" I furrowed my eyebrows at her.

"I'm going to make everyone breakfast! Are the 1D boys coming over?" She asked.

I checked my phone to see a message from Harry asking if they can come over in a little while because they're bored and don't have anything to do until this afternoon. "Are you okay with them coming over, or do you just want it to be us?" I ask. She had a rough night so I just want to make sure she's okay with more people being around.

"No, it's fine! They can come! We have enough stuff to make food for them too!" She smiled while walking into the kitchen. You could see it was a real smile because her eyes were lit up. I wonder if something happened or if she just woke up in the right side of the bed.

I texted him back, saying that they can come over and Jasmine is making breakfast.

"Her wrists..." Michael whispered. She must have been wearing short sleeves.

"She scratched a couple open last night." I explained quietly.

"Where is the marker that you used?" He asked, referring to the butterflies I drew.

"On the desk in the bedroom." I said.

He went into the room and walked out with the marker in his hand. He walked straight into the kitchen, without saying anything.

We watched tv in silence, until he walked back out.

"What did you do?" I asked curiously.

"I drew a butterfly on her stomach with my signature and signed her wrists. You guys," he held the marker out to the couple. "She's wearing shorts. She's okay with you drawing on her thighs." He ordered.

Calum took the marker and they walked into the kitchen together, hands intertwined.

"Damn. You smart." I told Michael. I never thought about her thighs and stomach last night.

"We promised to help her. I plan on doing so." He sighed.

After a few moments, they walked out with the marker. "Go sign the other butterflies." Luke said while handing me the markers.

I walked into the kitchen to see Jasmine mixing the pancake batter and trying to hold back tears.

"Hey, what's wrong?" I asked. I gently pulled the bowl out of her hands and set it down.

"I just- I didn't think anyone cared that much about me." She cried.

"Of course we care about you! You deserve to be happy. No one deserves to go through what you have. We love you so much." I said while hugging her.

She started silent and took a few deep breaths to stop crying. "I'm okay now." She said after a moment.

"Okay." I chuckled. "Can I sign the other butterflies?" I asked.

She nodded and smiled.

I slowly rolled up her shirt to make sure I don't hurt her. The butterfly Mikey drew was really pretty. I gently signed above the butterfly, and moved down to her thighs. She continued mixing the pancake batter while she kept her legs facing me. I kneeled on the ground so I could reach them better and gently lifted up her shorts. Michael's signature was off to the side a little so I assume that he signed it before the butterflies were drawn so he didn't have to come back and sign it. He really is smart. I signed each leg and smiled at her

"Done." I said. I hugged her again and she smiled.

"Thank you." She said quietly.

"Anything for you." I really would do anything for her.

I left the kitchen and let her continue cooking.

I put the marker in the bedroom and proceeded to the lounge.

Hopefully, that will help her.

Hey guys! I'm sorry for not updating as much... I'm still writing I just don't have internet at home so I have to wait until I go somewhere that I have Internet to publish it.

Thank you for sticking with me!!!
