Talk! (A.I.)

Stay.

I wake up on the bus, finally in my bunk, to Ashton hugging me. He slept with me because I wanted him to. "Hey, how are you feeling?" He murmurs. I nod and hug him. "Great. You?" "Amazing." He smirks, hugging me immediately. We both brush our teeth and grab coffee, guys darting out to prank ATL. I smile and pull Ash over, straddling his lap and kissing him deeply. He kisses me as well, pulling my thighs up to his hips when he scoots up a bit. I wrap my legs around him lightly, his tongue running across my lip before we make out. "Mm- don't do that." He holds me still from where I moved up. I nod and we keep making out, my hand on his chest at this point. He smiles when my hips press into him a little, his lips running down my neck. "Can I-" "Makeup exists." He immediately sucks on the side of my neck, holding my thighs to his body as they subconsciously tighten around him. We kiss again and his hands run over my ass, my hand in his hair before we break.

And in two months, Ashton and I were close. Never that close physically, but more emotionally. We've never gone all the way, per say, but I honestly think Frank's the only person I've been this close to.

I head in the venue, sitting with a drink. Dad smirks as I sink into Jack's side, relaxing. "Yes?" Jack smiles, hand on my arm. I shrug and continue drinking hot chocolate. He steals a drink and I continue drinking as the guys head in. "But- oh!" Michael beams, darting over and hugging me as he sits. Luke lays down over us both, head on my lap specifically. Calum sits beside Mike, Luke's legs over his lap. "Okay, hi!" I smile, ATL dying as they all beam. I laugh and Luke just nods. "I'm gonna nap." "I don't care." I pat his head and he nods, guys laughing as I get on my phone. "Where's Ash?" "I have no idea. I hoped you knew." Michael chirps. "Fuck, this band is going to crash and burn." Jack snorts as they all gape, Dad laughing. "Okay- maybe! But he's your boyfriend!" "But I don't wanna- fine." I sigh and text him.
'Your children are worried.'
Ash 'Jesus Christ I have children and not you?'
'Yes'
I send him a picture of Luke fake crying on my lap, guys all sniffling.
Ash 'REALLY.'
Ash 'Is he on your lap?'
'I told him he could sleep, yeah'
Ash 'Okay, I'm at the store grabbing shit for them.'
'Aye Zack needs white shirts size L no v-necks'
Ash 'On it babe'
Ash 'HEEEEEEEY!'
I beam, getting a picture of Derek Sicanio.
'AYEEEE!'
I send him a selfie, Michael gaping. "I'm offended." "Cry to Calum." "No, don't." Calum chirps, guys laughing. I run a hand through Luke's hair as I text Derek, seriously happy.
Ash 'Okay hi it's me and do you need anything babe?'
'A life'
Ash 'Really'
Ash 'I'm kind of here'
Michael grins and I roll my eyes.
'Nah, I'm good'
Ash 'Okaaaaay what's your frozen dinner preference'
'Cali pizza'
Ash 'Okay Michael'
'Shuddup'
Michael grins and I smirk, his head on my shoulder. Luke's out like a damn light.
'Holy shit Luke's asleep'
Ash 'Really? Already?'
'Yeah I guess he was dead'
Ash 'Damn. I'll be there in twenty with this jerk and a band "that isn't his but it's cool"?'
'DEREK WHAT THE FUCK WHO'
Ash 'He said it's a metal band you're close to'
'Fineeee'
Ash 'Love you'
'Love you'
I put my phone in my shirt pocket and then freeze. Michael raises an eyebrow as I'm wide-eyed. "That was not the first-" "Maybe." He grins, rolling his eyes.
