Hey, Angel. (Ashton's missing twin)

Chapter Thirty Three

/Angel/

"So... What'd you guys do?" Ashton's smug look makes me roll my eyes.

"Why do you want to know?"

"Mhm, so he finally told you?"

"Wait..." I stop walking and turn to Ashton, making him stop as well.

"He did tell you right?" He sighs. "Because I'm tired of us all knowing and him not telling you."

"He's the one you were talking about earlier? The friend that likes me?" I can't help but smile.

"Yes, he's like a damn puppy. Come on, we're falling behind." He puts an arm around my back and we try to catch up with the others.

"Well yes, I mean he didn't necessarily tell me. I kind of found out, but yes." I say when we're almost caught up.

"Good. Though now that I think about it and he won't be annoyingly not telling you he likes you... I don't know if this is such a fantastic idea."

I roll my eyes, "Well too bad it's not up to you what I do." I smile sarcastically and elbow him slightly as we approach the vehicle Luke and I had just left.

"So, who's going with who? Pick quick, we don't have all day." Harry snaps his fingers a few times.

I glance around a bit after looking away from Ashton and see Luke watching me as he plays with his lip ring, one of his hands grasping the other.

"Dibs." Louis sing-songs with a smirk, taking my hand. I roll my eyes but none the less accept his move to entertwine our fingers.

"We do have two more seats." I hold him back for a second, glancing to the group.

"I'll come!" Calum says, running up and putting an arm over my shoulder.

"I'll come as well then." Zayn says, walking up behind us.

"See you guys there." I smile, looking at Luke. He looks dejected but lifts one side of his mouth in a small fake smile, his hands in his pockets.

"So..." Zayn trails off, once we're all in the car and headed to a hotel. "What's actually going on between you guys?"

Louis glances to me, his right hand on the steering wheel and his left holding mine. He squeezes my hand quickly and gently, and I turn to look at Zayn who's sat behind Louis.

"We became best friends... Who are extremely clingy."

Louis nods once and as I turn my attention ahead again, I hear Zayn's faint chuckle from the backseat.

It's not a long drive and after a few more minutes in traffic, we're all climbing out of the car.

"So how's Luke feel about you and Louis?" Calum asks, draping an arm over my shoulders.

"What do you mean?" I ask absentmindedly, haven't having thought about much since we'd all met back up.

"Seriously?" He pauses, though we don't stop walking behind Louis and Zayn. Who are now in full on banter as we enter the hotel lobby. "He's like, in love with you little bird. Don't you see how-"

"Wait, you think that he thinks I'm dating Louis?" I stop us, the other two guys continuing towards the elevator without even noticing that we're still in the center of the lobby.

"Well, why wouldn't he think that? You guys showed up holding hands and then he was all over you as soon as you came back with Luke."

"Well for one, I'm not a cheater." I cross my arms.
