"NO WAY! KFC IS WAY BETTER THAN MACCAS!" i yell at ashton, as a grab a hot chip that was lying down on the light grey parchment paper.
"yeah, no" ash replies, lightly punching my arm
"ow!'i say, pretending to be hurt
"sorry nova" he says throwing a piece of fish at me
"oi! that was perfectly good fish mate" i say to him
"yeah i know, thats why i bought it from the fish and chips shop" he laughs
"what do you wanna do now?" i ask
"i dont know, you tell me" he replies
"seriously ash, what do you wanna do?"  i say, death staring him.
"do you wanna go to your ho-" he tries to say, being cut off by my statement
"nope, over protective parents, it's a true statement, it's a fact Ashton" I laugh slightly
"My house?" He says laughing softly
"Yeah, why not, I just need to tell my dad I'm with... Uh"
"Not a guy?" Ashton says smiling
"Yep! Spot on, I'll say I'm studying with a friend, he will agree, if he sees me with you, he won't have a reason to be angry because he agreed, BAM!" I laugh at my plan, that is perfect.
"Your unique, you know?" He says looking at me
"Yeah, who wants to be like everyone else?" I shrug
He smiles, and opens the car door for me, "M'lady" he says gesturing his arms to the door,
"Thank you kind sir" I laugh
As he turns in the ignition, the radio turns on, playing I hate you: by Gnash
I reach my hand to change the station, but Ashton looks at me and says
"no, I like this song" and he starts to drive, singing along to the song
"I never thought you would like this song" I laugh, looking at him
"Well that's another thing we have in common," he laughs , as brushes through his hair with his hands,
"What's the first thing?" I say confused
"Well, over protective parents, and we both do art together" he laughs
"Then why are we going to your house?" I say much more confused now
"Well, they aren't home until next week, they have a conference in Brisbane" he says shrugging his shoulders.
"Oh, fair enough ashy" I smile
"Ashy?" He laughs
"Oh, ok u won't call you that" I say slightly embarrassed.
"No, I like it" he says, blushing slightly
I smile at the silly guy sitting next to me, even though he is so stupid, he is still cute..
"We're here!!" He says hopping out of the car excitedly
I get out of the car, and walk into the double story house, following Ashton,
He turns around and says
"This is my house nova!!" And spins around in a circle,
I laugh at Ashton, and he grabs my hand and sits me down in his couch, and says to me
"Hey nova, can you go make the popcorn and I will get the movie set up?" He says smiling
"Yeah sure" I say getting off the couch and walking to his kitchen
"Popcorn is on the top shelf of the cupboard!" He yells from the lounge room,
"Thank you!" I yell back
Ask out the popcorn in the microwave, I walk towards the lounge room, and I hear Ashton talking to himself quietly saying
"Come on, just tell her how you feel Ashton, you have liked her for ages now, I think it is time to grow some balls and tell her" he says
I walk back into the kitchen
Was he talking about me?
The microwave dings, and I pull it out, being stupid as I am, I forget to use a cloth to pick it up, and I burn my hand,
"OW!" I tell as I quickly place it on the table
Ashton comes running in,
"NOVA ARE YOU OK?" He says hugging me
"Yeah, I burnt my hand" I say in pain
"Ok, im on it" he says as he drags me to the sink, and washes my hand under cold water, he turns off the tap and holds my hand
"Ow" I say quietly
"Oh sorry, sorry" he says as he grabs, my other hand, and takes the popcorn to the lounge, and sits me down
"Nova, I like-" before he can finish he gets cut off
"ASH! BABE IM BACK!" A female voice rings through the silent home
"Patty?" Ashton says in shock, as he sees a beautiful girl walk inside
