Beside You (An Ashton Irwin Fanfiction)

thirty one

      'Shut up!' Chloe laughed hitting my arm. I rolled my eyes and picked up Finn.

'He wants to be in the video!' i protest and she laughs as Finn jumps around on her bed.

'Take number 24!' she over exagerates.

I roll my eyes again laughing, we're currently recording a new video for her channel. Chloe is my cousin, and has always lived in LA. She also has a huge crush on Michael, but she always has, but never talks to him..

Ha, anyway i decided we would hang out, and after i explained mine and Ash's situation she said i needed to be distracted so we're doing a colab video.

'Miaow' I say to Finn repeatedly waiting for a reaction.

'I'm a cat! Be scared!' I say and I hear Chloe laugh,

'Anyway! The next question is from @MichaelGirl5ever (idk if thats a real url..)

"Favourite love film?"

'THE NOTEBOOK!' I shout and fist pump the air, 'And love actually'

Chloe nodding agreeing, and I grinned.

"Childhood memory?"

'When I went to the fair, and a boy asked to sit on the ferris wheel with me, then kissed my cheek and left. I was about 6.' Chloe says laughing.

I chuckle and think 'Um, when me and Mikey were little, around the age of 6 and 7. We went to a park, and i remember pushing him on the swings, and i ended up getting disttacted and i kept pushing him until he fell off the swing and he ended up crying the whole way home while i laughed at him.' I say laughing again.

Chloe laughs and shakes her head then saying bye to the camera and switching it off.

'I'll edit it later, it should be up thursday' she tells me and i nod.

'Okay, well I best get home and see the boys.' I say and she laughs

'You sound like their mother.'

'I am half of the time. Anyways i left this morning and didnt see any of them so, i best go face Ash..' I mumble and she nods giving me ans sympathetic look.

✌

'You didn't come back.' I say simply staring at him.

'I did, well yeah. It was just later then planned...' He muttered shake his head.

'You said you'd text me, and be back in an hour. I assumed we could finally sort things out.' I say sighing.

'we still can!' he protests.

'no we can't, you let me down again and i'm not doing this anymo-'

'No! don't say that, we're not finishing like this.' He says angrily running a hand through his hair.

'Ash I-'

'No, I love you. Okay? I love you, and only you, I can't promise we'll have the perfect relationship but i can promise we'll get through it' he says walking slowly towards me.

'Please? Just give me this last chance' he begs staring into my eyes.

I sigh. 'I can't. i'm sorry Ash, Its over.' I say before quickly leaving the room.

'Laura don't do this' he says following me.

'Ash, please I can't keep trying on a relationship that wont work. I'm the only one trying and its frustrating.' I say rubbing my forehead.

I look at him once more before going to the bedroom to pack.

I took my clothes out of the wardrobe and shoved them in a bag, witb my makeup, toiletries and other things.

Afterwards I walked into Michaels room and smiled at him instantly.

'I'm gonna stay with chloe for a bit.' I tell him and he furrows his eyebrows.

'What?'

'she's my cousin, and the only family ive seen in a long time. She offered this morning. I'll come back It's just i need space, and-'I ramble and Michael nods

'You need time away from Ash, its fine i get it.' He says and smiles

'Just remember to come back.' He says hugging me and i laugh.

'of course.' i say grinning and smile before leaving the room and quickly explaining to Luke and Calum.

'Stay' Calum says and i roll my eyes.

'I cant'

'You can!' he frowns.

'Shutup you tool! I'm coming back, okay?'

He nods and takes my bag downstairs.

I hear a beep outside, 'Thats Chloe, I'll see you soon yeah?' I say and hug him while he nods.

Over his shoulder i see Ash sat on the stairs watching me.

'I love you' he mouths and i smile sighing.

Before i could reply Calum pulls back and I smile quickly before clicking on Finn's leash and joining Chloe.

'You did it?'

'Yeah, we're over.' i sigh and she smiles sympatheticly.

'Aha, stop it!' I laugh hitting Camerons arm.

He holds up his hands innocently while smirking.

'Laura, i know tomorrow you're leaving and -' He starts before Chloe bursts through door.

'Wow It was so busy today!' she says kicking off her shoes. I grin noticing the amount of bags in her hands.

'I'm gonna get in the shower, I'll show you what i bought after!' she shouts running up the stairs.

I laugh and turn back to Cameron.'You were saying?' I ask laughing.

He grins and shuffles in his seat.

'I wanted to give you this' he says pulling out a box.

I open it and see a charm bracelet.

'Its beautiful' I say and he grins.

'Here' he says and clips it onto my wrist.

I smile, 'thank you' i say and he smiles.

'Don't forget me' he reminds me and i chuckle, 'I couldn't!' I tell him hitting his arm.

'Why do you have to leave? You're not performing, you don't have to go!' he reminds me and i shrug sighing.

'We've talked about this.' I tell him and he shrugs.

'I'm right'

'Trust me, im gonna miss you and Chloe so much, but Michaels like a brother to me, and they're all my best friends. I can't ditch them like that.' I explain and he sighs.

'You have your own life to live Laura' he reminds me.

I shrug, 'It's harder than that.'

He shakes his head, 'We're going back to australia then new zealand, then we're done. I'll get Chloe to come visit and invite you' I tell him and he sighs nodding.

'I'll miss you' he tells me and i smile.

'I'll miss you too' I say hugging him.

'It's getting late i should go' he says and i nod walking him to the door.

'Bye Laura' he says hugging my before glancing down at me and kissing my cheek softly.

'Bye Cameron' I say and shut the door grinning.

'what are you grinning about?' Chloe asks scaring me.

'Nothing, I'm gonna bed.'

'what about my new clothes'

'Sorry, im tired.'

She rolled her eyes smiling, 'Okays night'

'g'night' I say shutting my bedroom door.
