A/N: Yay! I have an Ashton pic for once in my life!! The tongue out tho...😍😉 also the song "Trouble" by Cage the Elephant is on the right

We drove in without a word. Only the soft sound of "Trouble" by Cage the Elephant was heard.

I had gotten to pick the music, since I argued saying that it was my birthday.

He rolled his eyes at me—something he seemed to be doing a lot.

I ignored it, partly due to the fact that I could now listen to whatever I wanted.

I could feel him glance over at me every once in awhile, but I chose to ignore that too.

I didn't want to be filled with anxiety before I even arrived at the party.

After maybe 10 minutes, Ashton spoke.

"Need you to put this on,"

"What?"

I turned around, having been looking out the window.

Ashton had a red bandanna in his hand.

"Hope you don't mind, it's one of mine,"

The tone in his voice is awkward, and I feel as if maybe he is actually beginning to realize I didn't ruin our relationship.

The way he's been acting lately shows that he feels somewhat guilty. You can tell by the way he looks at me every couple of seconds.

I think he excepts me to be giving him the middle finger behind his back or crying or something.

The only reason I say this is because when he realizes I'm not doing anything, he sighs in relief.

Every freaking time he sighs in relief.

"It's fine,"

I take the bandanna from him and tie it tightly over my eyes.

"Bet I could drum better than you with the blindfold on,"

He scoffs.

"Have you even even held a drumstick?"

"Um, of course. I was actually in a band in high school,"

"Bet that band sucked,"

"Not as much as yours,"

He frowned in confusion.

"I thought you were a fan of 5SOS,"

I rolled my eyes, snorting at the realness of his confusion.

"Have you seen any of your fans on Twitter? I mean we may be sweet sometimes, but 99% of the time we're roasting you,"

"Oh, so it's like a Luke-Micheal relationship,"

"Mm hm,"

He giggled as he turned right.

"I'm so dumb,"

"Can't disagree with you there,"

The smile in my voice was evident, but I could almost see the guilt hit him again.

"Ashton, I forgive you,"

He turned to full on face me, I didn't know, however, since the blindfold was on.

"What?" He asked lamely.

"I, Nikki Braelynn Frey, forgive you for everything you've done to me,"

I held up my as if I was pledging something.

"But, but why? I thought you hated me,"

"I don't hate you...well I mean I did for a little while, but I forgive you because I'm over what you did now. It may hurt sometimes but it's in the past and I want to try and be friends again,"

"Oh, my, gosh, Nikki, thank you!"

As I opened my mouth to say you're welcome, Ashton yelped, suddenly veering to the left.

I screamed too despite not knowing why. My body slid to the left until I was almost touching Ashton.

And then the car stopped.

"We're...here,"

Ashton sucks in a breath between words.

I lift the blindfold from my eyes a tiny bit to glare menacingly at Ashton.

"YOU ALMOST KILLED ME BECAUSE YOU MISSED YOUR TURN!?"

"Maybe,"

Still fuming, I hopped out of the car.

"MAYBE!? I ALMOST DIED ON MY BIRTHDAY!"

"Relax, you didn't die,"

"BUT I COU—"

Ashton spun me around by the shoulders, facing me toward the destination.

The anger and frustration inside me washed away.

"Wow,"

That was the only word to describe it.
