He Broke Me but You Can Save Me (Ashton Irwin fanfic)

Chapter 18

"What do you mean you can't be with Cleveland?" I asked a bit too quickly. What could've possibly happened in the past few hours?

"I'm not made to be anyone's girlfriend. I can't stay alive. I just can't do it." She said and started crying. I looked at Ashton and turned back to Madison.

"What? That's silly, Madison. Obviously you are made to be someone's girlfriend. Cleveland is worried about you. I'm pretty sure he hasn't sat down for the past ten minutes. Instead of saying you can't do it, tell yourself that you can. If you keep believing in yourself, you'll eventually truly know that you are a beautiful, young woman that deserves this life. You'll realize that people do love you and would be devastated if you weren't here anymore." I said and rubbed her back.

"Is he really worried? I just thought he felt sorry for me because of the way I am." Madison said.

"Cleveland is worried. And he really does love you. I've never seen him so attracted to a girl before. Madison, you may be the one. Cleveland isn't your average teenage boy that's an arrogant asshole. He is one of the few that actually have a heart. I suggest you call him. He needs you more than anything." I state and give her a hug.

"No. I'm not calling him. I'm going back to see him. I need to talk to him and apologize." I smiled at Madison and walked her back to the car, Ashton following us. We all got in the car and I drove back home. Now I know why we like the park so much. We live five minutes away. When we pulled in the driveway, Madison was the first one out of the car. Ashton and I followed her into the house and I closed the door. We found Cleveland laying face down on the couch crying.

"Cleveland. Cleveland, I'm back." Madison said softly. Cleveland immediately jumped up at the sound of her voice. He embraced her in a hug and kissed her.

"I was so worried." Cleveland said with a sob.

"I know. I'm so sorry. I thought I couldn't do life anymore, but Jamie convinced me that you do care and that I have a reason to live." Madison said and sat down with him on the couch.

"She's totally right. I do care and you do have a reason to live. Too many people love you for you to do that. Please talk to me next time you're feeling bad because when you hurt yourself, I hurt too." Cleveland stated and gave her a kiss. They exchanged smiles and went back to their room.

"Well that was interesting. Are you hungry yet?" Ashton asked. I nodded and followed him to the kitchen. I sat at the table and watched his tall figure move around the kitchen. His light, golden brown hair suits his skin tone.

"What do you want, babe?" He asked me.

"You." I whispered and regretted it immediately.

"What?" Ashton asked and smirked at me. I shook my head and shrugged.

"Nothing. I want yogurt." I said and gave him a smile. The look on his face told me he didn't believe me but shrugged it off. He handed me yogurt and a spoon. I gladly accepted it.

"What are you gonna eat?" I asked and he shrugged.

"I'm not hungry." He said. I raised an eyebrow at him. I got up and grabbed a bag of chips and some water.

"Eat." I said placing the chips and water on the table. He sat down with a smirk and snacked on the chips.

"You know, it's hard to say no to you when you look so cute." Ashton said and I blushed. He smiled at the effect he had on me and kept eating.

"What are we gonna do for the rest of the day? It's just 3pm." I said.

"Um I'm not sure. How about we have a date night? It'll just be me and you.....and the city lights of London." He said with a smile. I nodded and dashed to get some decent clothes on. I picked out a plain grey sweatshirt and red skinny jeans with my black converse. I quickly got dressed and put my glasses on. I brushed through my brown hair and put on some perfume. I looked at my reflection in the mirror and walked back to the kitchen.
