We continued driving until we came to a stop at an arena? When Ashton stopped the car, I asked him, "Why are we here?" He smirks before getting out and coming to the other side of the car right as I get out. He then says, "You can see me drum." On the outside I softly smiled, but on the inside I was just a mix of emotion, I didn't know whether to be confused or to be happy. He grips my hand lacing our finger together, and leading me to some back door entrance. He opens the door and a man comes over to us and asks, "Name?" Ashton pulls out card and says, "Ashton Irwin, drummer. This is my friend or, uh I guess girlfriend, Brighton." I look at him and nod with a stupid happy smile plastered on my face. The man nods, and Ashton continue to drag me to another room, where I was slightly laughing at how happy he was. He finally came to a stop at a door and said, "Just a warning, my band mates are idiots." What band mates?! I totally forgot he was in a band! He opens the door and three boys were sat at a tv screaming at each other. We quietly sneak in and Ashton grabs a pair of drumsticks, and we sneak out trying to I unoticed, which I had no idea why, but we tried. We almost made it out but Ashton's stomach decided to make a dyeing whale noise. The three boys turning around in their seats and their eyes widened when they saw me with Ashton. "Oh, hi." One of them with dyed black and pink hair says. Ashton mumbles profanity under his breath then says, "This is Brighton, my girl- um friend, yeah, girlfriend." I turn to face them completely and wave. "They're my bandmates, Luke, Calum, and Michael." They all smile and wave, then Ashton grabs my arm and says, "Now, we've got to go drum, bye!" I laugh as Ashton brings me to a completely empty arena. He walks on the stage and sits at a drum stool, and begins to hit the drums. I smile at how cute he looks, he looked, so serious! I laugh at how weird I must sound right now.
He stops playing and looks at me, then holds out his sticks and asks, "Wanna play?" I smile, and walk towards him, then ask, "I thought nobody touches your drums?" He laughs and says, "You're different, I'll let you, you're my girlfriend." I smile at the word girlfriend. I smirk before taking his drum sticks and he gets up to let me sit down, he begins to watch me from the side of the stage. I randomly smack the drums with the sticks producing an awful sound, he started making weird faces at me from where he was standing, and I laugh. He shakes his head and walks towards me, he laughs in my ear as he sits behind me on the chair. He rests his chin on my shoulder and attempts to hold my hands, and hit the drums.
We were laughing about how bad I was at drumming as we walked down the halls backstage. We both probaly had no idea where we were, and we were just being weird and we were exploring. He opened up a door that led back to the large area of the arena, but we were now in the seating area near the front row, where a few security guards were setting up barriers. We backed away and shut the door laughing about it.
We continued walking until we reached the door that was where his other band mates were. We opened the door still laughing, not caring about the weird looks his band mates were giving us. He sits on a sofa and I plop down next to him still giggling, for some reason. Suddenly a door bursts open and a man in a suit says, "Boys, you're on in an hour." I look at Ashton and ask, "Should I leave or?" He grabs my wrist as I stood up, and says, "No! You're going to sit right here, then you're going to watch me perform, got it?" I nod and sit back down as he laughs. I laugh along with him, and sort of move a bit closer to him of out habit (which I don't know why it's a habit).
"So, I've never asked, what do you do for a living?" Ashton asks after a few moments. I smile and say, "I'm in medical collage, which mainly means I work at the hospital, but I am also a make-up artist on some days at the dance studio by my house." He smiles and says, "That's cool, my sister wants to be a make-up artist." "Your family seems cool, I need to meet them some time, they seem fun." I randomly say. He chuckle and says, "They're insane, I don't know about that." I laugh and stare at his amazing hazel eyes. He smiles and says, "I feel like this is the part where I kiss you." I smile and say, "Well, I think you might be correct, but I've only just met you, so that's odd." He laughs, and I sit up from where I was laying down. "But, I wouldn't mind it." I quickly add before biting my bottom lip. He smirks and begins to move closer than he was before, and he slowly starts to move in as I do the same. Just as our lips brushed against each other, the door flies open, and there stood a security guard, saying the boys needed to be in wardrobe, which seemed quite girly if I say so myself. He leans his head back and sighs, then says, "Now you have to wait here, you aren't allowed to see s get dressed, that's a bit odd." I laugh at his remark and stay seated as he gets up and exits the room.
When he finally came back after about ten minuets he was wearing totally different clothes, and now carrying drum sticks. "Come here." He says grabbing my wrist and pulling me up from the sofa. He dragged me down a long hallway, until we walked through a door that led into the audience. "Sit." He commands pointing to a seat with a clear view of the drum set. "Stay, now wait and watch us perform." He says just as girls begin to file into the seats. "Bye Brighton, enjoy." He says as the girls who had filed in gasped at the sight of Ashton. "Ok, bye Ashton." I say waving slightly.
"You know Ashton Irwin?!" A girl shrieks coming up to me. "Oh, um, yeah, he's uh, my boyfriend?" I say more like a question. "No he's not." She says laughing. "Well, I'd argue, but I have no proof, we've only started dating last night." I say looking at my feet. She was about to reply but the lights dimmed down, and the boys ran out on stage, for a sound check I think.
"Hi to the fans who came to see sound-check!" I think the one named Calum shouts into the microphone. Cheers erupt through the arena, and the one with dyed hair says, "And, I believe Ashton Irwin has an announcement, but you'll have to wait for a while!" By this point I was just guessing that the announcement was about us dating.
I was beginning to listen to their music, as they warmed up, and more people came in. After a while, when the concert had really started, I felt a tap on my shoulder and turn to see Josie standing there. "Hey!" She shouts over the loud music. "Hey!" I say back. "How do you like their music?" She asks. "They're really good, I really like that song, something about a heartbroken girl." I say and she giggles then asks, "You mean Heartbreak Girl?" I nod and continue to enjoy the music and talk to Josie for a little bit.
Pretty soon I hear Ashton shout, "Hey guys! So, uh, my big announcement is, that I'm no longer single, so um yeah. I'm dating a fantastic girl named Brighton, she's over there." He says pointing in my direction. I see thousands of eyes look at me as I sort of half smiled and waved. "Now that, that's cleared up, I hope you guys enjoyed the show! We might do a twitcam later tonight, I don't know, only if Brighton feels like it, I think we should do one together maybe." Ashton says standing up and meeting my eyes. "So, bye guys! Love you!" The one named Luke cheers. They all cleared off stage and I felt thousands of eyes dart to me again, as I slowly tried to walk away with Josie. "Oh my god! I can't believe Ashton has a girlfriend now?!" I hear a girl screech as Josie and I find the door that lead backstage, and begin to heavily bang on it.
After a moment, it swings open, and Ashton's standing there with a grin on his face. He grabs our wrists, then slams the door shut. "Sorry if they said anything to you two." He says still holding our wrists while dragging us to the small waiting room I was at before. "It's ok, they didn't say anything but, 'Oh Ashton has a girlfriend now' and that stuff." I say to him calmly.
He nods as we walked into the room we were in before and waited for the other boys to finish getting dressed into clean clothes.
Pretty soon they all came back through the door, talking and laughing. Then suddenly the one with the dyed hair stops and looks at Josie and I. "Hi." He says shortly. "Hi." Josie says doing her favorite thing in the entire world, blushing. (A/N: Idk Josie you do this a lot I'm not even kidding especially around you know who;))) Aww she does that too much. Ashton grabs my hand and slightly pulls me away from them. "So, do you want to do a twitcam with me?" He asks. "What even is a Twitcam?" I ask. "Like people can watch you live from their laptops, it's cool." He explains. "Oh, yeah, sure, why not?" I chuckle. "Yeah! That's the spirit!" Ashton cheers.
I laugh and he asks, "So, do you want to do the twitcam now?" I nod and he takes my hand again before walking to his laptop, and he opens it up and quickly goes to twitter telling his fans about the twitcam. Then he goes to some website, and starts something up, and I can soon see myself on the laptop screen.
"Hey guys! Can you see us?" Ashton asks waving slightly. I smile and imitate what he was doing, by waving. "Ok, so Brighton, these little tweets that pop up are people replying to us, and yeah, that's about it." I nod and he asks the viewers, "So, does anyone have any questions for Brighton and I?"
Well this sounds like it'll be a new experience...
