"you look happy."

"i swear to god,everyone just cant see me have actual feelings. I can't be too sad,or too happy." i rolled my eyes.

"woah. calm down. sorry."

"nah im sorry. I needed to let that out. and yes i am very happy because i get to live my dream."

"well,im really happy for you." then silence fell. A good kind of silence though. All that can be heard was the waves crashing to the shore.

"you know,i never knew your name all these while."

"same goes for you."

"asked you first."

"oh grow up." he said nudging me. "ashton. ashton irwin."

"lyla malto." i then shook his hand.

"nice to meet you lyla." he had his usual grin on which made me smile.

"you too ashton." And then silence fell again.

"so like what now?"

"i want to get some food. im starving. wanna come?"

"i don't see why not.- hey are you gonna carry it around just like that?"

"don't be dumb. i drove here." I said picking up my board and walking back to my car.

"oh."

"get in then!" i said as i put the board in the back. I then got in the car and started it. The music played which was Parkway Drive so I turned it down. "sorry about that."

"its cool." so then I ignited the engine and drove to the city. The music was still playing so i just hummed along and tapped on the steering wheel and sang or more like softly screamed along to the song. "you really like them huh?"

"love them." I smiled over to him. We finally reached the city and went to get dinner at some place. It was a quiet dinner. Except for the drive home.

"that was a nice dinner."

"very nice."

"so are you going to be travelling a whole lot more then?"

"thats the life." I shrugged.

"so i dont get to see you?" I stopped the car right at his house.

"we still have lots of time before i leave! dont get all sentimental." i laughed. 

"spend the night at mine. i doubt i'll see you anytime soon." he shrugged. 

"are you sure because-" 

"yes im super sure." 

"fine." 

"then come on." he mocked me earlier. I laughed and parked the car. He brought me into the house.

"you live alone?" 

"yeah. my family moved to a new place." 

"why didnt you go?" 

"i like it here. plus,no one wants to buy this house so.- here it is. my room." 

"nice room." 

"you can sleep on the bed,I'll get the mattress from my brother's room." 

"no its okay,you can sleep with me." i smiled. So then he climbed into the bed next to me. "goodnight." 

"night." he said facing away from me. Half an hour later,I still couldnt seem to fall into deep sleep. "hey can you sleep?" 

"nope. can you?" 

"not at all. wanna go for a walk?" 

"no! im tired i just can't sleep. at least not with another pillow."

"here." He handed me his.

"no! Can you sleep without a pillow?" 

He bit his lip. "ha,nope." I rolled my eyes at him. "but i can do this.- get up." 

"okay?.." so i sat up. He passed me his pillow and put my pillow in the middle. He lied down first. 

"come on." 

"we're sharing a pillow?" 

"what other option do we have?" 

I took a deep breath. "okay then..." So i laid down next to him. I kinda was fidgety just so i could feel comfortable sleeping with a guy. A GUY. WITH ME. IN. THE SAME BED. But he is kinda hot though I admit. We were facing the same way. "ashton?" 

"yeah?" he whispered into my ear. His breath on my ear tickles so i giggled a little. "are you ticklish?" 

"a little." so he kept breathing on my ear. and i ended up laughing in fits. "ashton! stop! im tired!" 

"okay,NOW im content with myself." 

"fuck you." 

"when you're ready come and get it babe." 

"ugh shut up. I need my sleep." 

"well then goodnight. for the second time." 

"night." then for 5 minutes i got distracted by the sound of his heartbeat. "ashton,you awake?" 

"pretty much." 

"hey can i ask you something?" 

"yeah okay." 

"why is your heart beating so fast?" 

"my what?" 

"its getting faster now." 

"um." So i turned to face him. I raised my eyebrows. I could see his cheeks turn pink slowly. "why is YOUR heart beating so fast?" 

"mine? no way." 

"yes way. i can feel it." 

"thats probably your own buddy." i laughed. He just sighed and gave up trying to cover it up. "you're so cute really." i said pinching his nose with my two fingers. 

"i just really like you." 

"sorry?" 

"yeah you heard right." 

"you're a first." 

"is that wrong?" 

"not at all. at least you're hot." His face dropped. "i like your mysterious personality too okay!" i put a finger on his chest. He just gave me a half smile. I smiled back. He then leaned in to kiss me. 

"you're a terrible kisser." 

"yeah of course i am! never had a boyfriend!" 

"woah. calm down. second time today." 

"sorry." 

"its okay." 

"but still,fuck you." 

"but still,terrible kisser." 

"then you should teach me." 

"one day." 

"now,i need my beauty sleep if you will." I said turning to face away from him. 

"goodnight lyla." 

"goodnight ashton." I then felt his arms wrap around me. 

"i hope thats okay with you."

"perfect." I had this feeling in my stomach like i can't really explain the feeling but i think its those "butterflies in your stomach" kind of feeling? Yeah i think thats it. A smile crept on my face as well. And i also managed to fall asleep not long after. 

I think I saw you in my sleep,darling. (Ashton Irwin Fanfic)Where stories live. Discover now
