ashton was probably the chirpiest of all of the boys. the 19 year old greeted me with an exited hug and a girly giggle. he is tall, brunette with curly hair and his accent was so thick it was recognizable.
luke introduces me "hey ash, this is alex" "i hope you dont mind her joining us for band practise?"
"of course not" ashton giggles "the more the merrier" "now come on boys, lets practise"
luke guides me to a room filled with guitars, a drum kit, basically instruments everywhere. and in the corner, a small room with an electronic keyboard. in the middle of the large room there is a couch.
"have a seat" luke smiles.
michael picks up a guitar and a mic stand, so does luke, calum grabs a mic stand and a bass guitar. ashton is happily testing out his drums.
"alex, could you pass us the mics" mike tries his best to smile at me while talking.
"uh, yeah sure" i do so and sit back , listening to them play.
i heard the first few chords of their first song and instantly knew what they where playing. therapy by all time low. my favrouite song of theirs.
calum sings first, i have heard his voice at various assembly's. he expertly plucks at his bass. this brings out an attractive side in calum, a side ive never seen before. my eyes drift to ashtons, his face scrunched up, obviously focused. them my eyes wander to lukes. he smiles and winks at me before singing. his voice is angelic, deep and husky. he constalty smiles showing his dimple. his blue eyes light up when he plays. i cant help from smiling .
after the song is finished luke walks over to me, grabs a bottle and smiles.
"you can go in ther if you want" he jerks his head towards the piano room.
"we might be a little while"
i simply nod in response and walk over to the room.
i begin playing one of the only songs i feel comfortable with, a river flows in you. i had played it so many times my fingers automatically knew what keys to hit. after i finished i turned my head and watched the boys play. i couldnt hear them because of the sound proff walls, but i just enjoyed watching their reactions to playong. they all seemed so happy.
i finally walked out of the room about 30 minuets later. michael had already left, and calum where playing fifa in the corner. ash stood in the kitchen pouring a glas of water. i decided to go talk to him. he seemed nice.
"whats up butter cup" ashton giggled.
i smiled "you guys are really good"
"thanks, you arent to bad yourself" he nods at the piano
"shit, you heard that?" i mumbl
"yeah" his hand lifts up my chin "and it sounded amazing" he dusts his hand off on his jeans and grabs his glass, and takes a sip.
"so whats up with you and luke" he nudges my shoulder
"nothing is going on, we only met today" i smiled "ive known calum for a while"
"yeah we know, calum wont shut up about you."
"what" i say, startled
"something about you and luke, i dont know" he smiles "dont get all defensive sweetheart, im just curious"
"curous?" "what about"
"luke brings a beautiful lady to band practise on the first day of school, how can you not be curious, plus i see the way you look at him"
"anyway" he turns his head towards calum and luke. "im have to get going calum?" calum jerks his head. "want a ride home?" he nods
"so alex i have to go" he hands me his phone "put your number on here? we can talk about luke any time" he says with a cheeky smile
"whatever" i say, handing his phone back to him with my number on it.
"bye alex" calum and ashton say in unison
then it was just luke and i
