Separate, But Made as One (Ashton Irwin Fanfiction)

Ouch and Announcements

Ashton's POV

When I heard her come into the room, I didn't think she would be in only a towel. I probably looked ridiculous, with my eyes pracitically bulging and drooling. The thought was cute that she came into my room to change, I mean it is our room. I hope she doesn't feel uncomfortable getting dressed. I love her and all of her, and I don't want her being insecure. That girl is beautiful. I watched her as she plopped down in front of the mirror and threw her hair into a big bun at the very top of her head. I love it when she doesn't try hard, because she doesn't have to. I stopped her before she could apply any of her makeup.

" Wait." I said and she turned towards me.

" What's wrong?" She looked confused.

" Could you, maybe, not wear makeup today? I like it when you don't wear it." I asked her.

" Sure." She smiled and put her makeup away.

" You look perfect without it." I told her and she blushed. Adorable.

We went downstairs for breakfast, and I helped her down each step since she was still in pain from the incident at the airport.

"Morning!" She said in a spirited tone; she's always in happy mood no matter what.

"UGHHHHHH...." The boys groaned in sync. We are just not morning people, but I am getting better about it, kinda.......

I yawned and made myself a bowl of cereal. I sat on the stool by the kitchen counter and watched Brianna. She quickly took her hair out of the bun and tied it into a ponytail. I laughed to myself, as she rolled her eyes at Michael for putting his feet on the table. She grabbed a hold of both his legs and placed them gently back onto the floor. Michael pouted, which made her giggle. I loved her smile, it was genuine and loving. It was never forced, but more inviting. If she heard myself think right now, she'd call me insane. She's probably right, but the correct phrase is that I'm insane about 'her.' My thoughts were interrupted, when I heard a loud bang and Brianna yelling out. When I looked up, she was on the floor, holding her leg. I rushed over.

" Are you ok? Is something broken? Do you need something?" I gushed out.

"I'm fine, I don't know, and no." She took a moment to take in my questions and recited her answers.

Luke and I helped her up and we placed her onto the couch.

"I'll call a doctor." Calum said.

"Thanks." She said.

" Does it hurt?" Luke asked.

" A little, but bearable." She lied. I knew she was in pain, but she didn't want to worry us. I'd worry either way.

"Does it hurt when I move your leg this way?" The doctor asked her.

"Yes." She replied, trying to conceal her pain.

"And you can't walk, correct?"

" I don't think so."

"Alright. I'm done with the examination. I'm afraid she did break her leg." She diagnosed. " I suggest staying off it for about a week. Then we can get you in a cast and crutches for a month." Brianna groaned.

"I know it sucks. but I hope you feel better, dear!" She said and the boys led her out the door.

" Are you kidding me?" Brianna complained.

" It's all my fault...." I said to myself, not thinking she could hear me.

" Ashton Fletcher Irwin, look at me!" She said, annoyed. " This is not your damn fault, it's mine! I should have let you take me yourself. You did nothing wrong and if it weren't for you, I probably would be unable to get out of that crowd!"
