No One Ever Comes Close To You

Chapter 5.

Aston's Point Of View

Letting Amelia go was one of the worst things I could have done. She's the only girl thats caught my eye properly, there was no doubt I wanted to spend the rest of my life with her. I don't know why I'd been so stupid as to make these mistakes, I didn't have a reason as to why I did this, I just did. I hoped I hadn't messed up so bad that I'll loose her completely. I know the only thing was to give her space and let her come to me when she wants to talk. The boys knew how much I was missing her so decided to drag me out tonight to take my mind off Amelia and the situation, not that I think that'll happen. She was on my mind 24/7. At first I wasn't feeling up to it and I just wanted to stay at home so my bad mood wouldn't effect anyone, just because I'd made a mistake it didn't mean I had to drag everyone down with me. Eventually giving in to their persuasive talking I agreed to go so it would get them off my back, I needed to at least try and distract myself. I was slightly dissapointed Amelia hadn't tried to contact me, I was hoping within in the first day she'd realise how sorry I was and decide to put it behind us but that hadn't happened. I wouldn't be surprised if she hadn't thought of me at all these past five days. I climbed into the shower after having a bite to eat to make sure my alcohol stayed down tonight, I was planning on getting drunk if it meant forgetting relationship problems for a night. After a quick wash I got out, brushing my teeth and doing what I needed in the bathroom before going to decide what to wear (outfit on the side). I slipped on my clean boxers and got dressed, splashing a bit of aftershave on before I left my bedroom and went downstairs to wait for the taxi which would already have the other boys in. Within ten minutes of me waiting the taxi pulled up and they text me to let me know they were outside. I quickly got into the already open door of the taxi and shut it behind me, looking at the boys who were looking eager to get this boys night out started. I think they purposley put off asking the other girls to come for my sake, they didn't want to rub it in my face that they all still had their girls and I didn't, plus I'd probably be left on my own the whole night if the girls did come. I was quite thankful they had done that, it'd just remind me of my relationship problems and how me and Amelia should be rather than distract me from it like its meant to.

"You alright Ast?" Oritsé asked as I sat down and shut the door behind me.

"Yeah, I'm good." I shrugged, forcing out a smile and even though it was fake they seemed to believe it, being taken back by my 'good' mood and instantly lightening them up. Told you, my mood would affect them too.

"Glad you decided to come out." JB said.

"It's gonna be a good night." Marvin agreed.

"Can't remember the last time we had a boys night out." Oritsé smiled, I noticed the boys give each other a sly look and that's what confirmed it for me that they'd clearly not asked the girls because of me. I shrugged it off because I knew they would deny it if I mentioned it to them causing awkward atmosphere between us for the night.

"I plan on getting smashed." I laughed a little. I just hoped I wouldn't turn into my usual soppy self when I got drunk, and spill out all my feelings on the boys. We pulled up outside the club and paid for the fare before getting out, going straight into the club before we got bombarded by paps and cameras. I still noticed them shouting my name and questions to me about Amelia, making me sigh to myself and hang my head low. Once we were inside we went straight to the bar and I ordered myself a drink, I was starting this night as soon as I could.

"Ast come on, we're hitting the dance floor!" Marvin grinned, he was a little tipsy like the others were unlike me who was still sat here more or less sober even after having however many drinks.

"Nah, you go..I'm fine here." I shrugged, giving him a dismissive wave which made him go, dragging the other boys with him.

"Excuse me mate, can I have the same please?" I called across the bar to the barman who was quick to come to me and get my drink.
