Give Me Life

Part 18

 *Astons point of view*

 As we got nearer and nearer the restaurant, word must have got out about us being here, because entering the restaurant was easier said than done. There was a swarm of paparazzi surrounding the entrance to the place, all with huge camera’s around their shoulders.

‘Don’t say anything…just stay close to me and walk straight in…’ I smiled holding onto Amelia’s hand as we pulled up outside the restaurant

‘Aston!....is this your girlfriend…’

 ‘Aston…quick interview for star magazine with your new girlfriend?!’

 ‘Aston…is this Amelia…your girlfriend…’

All these different people who id never met before in my life, all thinking they knew more about me than I did. Screaming questions at me about my private life, they had no right to be asking me those kind of questions, Amelia and I would go public in our own time and were not going to be pressurised into coming clean…

*Amelia’s point of view*

‘Well that was….eventful…’ I laughed as we finally entered the restaurant

‘Sorry…’ he smiled

‘hey its not your fault…look…maybe we shouldn’t hide from the camera’s anymore…I don’t want to spend the entire night not being able to kiss or hug you…’

 ‘Well why don’t we just let them find out for themselves, they can write that they want…because im not holding back tonight…’ he smiled with a sparkle in his eyes taking hold of my hand and kissing my cheek before the people that had already arrived caught sight of us

‘Hey….you remember Amelia…?’ Aston smiled towards Rochelle, Chloe and Amy

‘Hey…yeah course we do…come over here babe…we saved you both seats…’ Rochelle smiled

‘Thanks…’ I smiled politely taking the available seat next to her

‘So…you and Aston….?’ She smiled as the others stared at us wide eyed

‘Yeah…’ we both laughed at the same time

‘I knew it! You could tell at the premiere…’ she laughed

‘Well we weren’t actually together then but…now we are’ he smiled

‘Well you make such a cute couple…’ Chloe smiled

‘Thanks…I guess…’ I laughed

‘So you up for a proper party tonight?’

 ‘Course we are…’ Aston laughed placing a hand on my thigh

‘oh and by the way you look gorgeous Amelia….’ Chloe smiled

‘thankyou…I wasn’t sure about the dress but thought what the heck..’

 ‘Well it looks hot…’

 ‘Thanks…’ I smiled just as his bandmates walked over to him and we began talking for a bit before Aston went off to get some drinks from the bar and girls began making conversation…

 ‘So how long have you and Aston been an item?’

 ‘Not long…’ I smiled ‘a month?’

 ‘you can tell he’s crazy for you…when he came round to see Marv the other day he could not stop talking about you’ Rochelle smiled

‘Really?’

 ‘Yeah…so how was Christmas…did you spend it with your family?’

 ‘Yeah…I went over to South Africa actually…my dad lives out there with his step mum…’

‘Jager bombs anyone?’ Aston smiled holding a try full of them

‘Ast you know they get me wasted…’ I laughed ‘remember last time…’

 ‘Last time?’ Rochelle asked

‘Our one off gig a few months ago…Amelia and her work mates came to the after party and got a little drunk’ he laughed handing me a drink

‘A little? I was wasted..’ I laughed

‘Well tonight should be fun then…’

 ‘Cant wait…’ I smiled

 We had a few drinks before our first course was delivered, we continued to make small talk whilst getting to know each other better, I liked Astons group of friends, they made me feel so welcoming, I didn’t feel like an outsider like I had with some people when growing up. The entire time chatting, Astons hand rested on my thigh under the table, his touch sending shivers down my spine, I guess it was payback for teasing him whilst we were getting ready to come out, but the sexual tension between us was growing stronger and stronger, he already knew my weak spots and we hadn’t been dating that long…boy he was going to pay for this later…
