Falling Slowly

Memory Lane

Ashley's POV:

I hoped I wouldn't crash as I flew down the road. Tears blurred my vision and I decided to just pull over when I couldn't see the road anymore.

I just sat there and cried with my head in my arms.

Then my door opened and I felt myself being lifted into some arms. Luke. I wrapped my arms around his neck and pushed my face against his skin as he carried me to the back of my truck, pulled down the tailgate, and climbed into the bed of my truck.

"Baby girl what's wrong?" Luke asked.

I told him about my father and how my brothers would always protect me from him.

Luke hugged me tightly against him. "I ain't gonna let him hurt you no more. Yer safe with me sweetheart. I promise."

He held me until the tears finally stopped flowing, then kissed the top of my head.

"Luke, thank you. Yer the best boyfriend a girl could ask for," I whispered.

"I'm the luckiest man in the world to have a girl like you," Luke said and kissed me. "So tell me about yer brothers."

I smiled. "Aaron is five years older than me. Dan is four years older than me. Mark is three years older. We all have brown hair and bright blue eyes. They were all football stars in high school and really popular. They were VERY protective of me. Aaron and Dan worked on other farms to help pay the bills. They wouldn't let Matt get another job so he could take care of me while they were away."

"Sounds like I would really like them," Luke said.

I nodded. "Ya, I know you'd like 'em just fine."

*Five days later*

"Thank you Birmingham! Now give it up for a man that is like a big brother to me, Blake Shelton!" I yelled to the crowd before running backstage. I gave Blake a slap on the back as I passed him.

"Ya did real good baby girl," Luke told me, giving me a kiss and handing me a water bottle.

"Thanks baby," I said, smiling and taking a big gulp of water.

Our head security guard, who was also named Aaron, came up and tapped us on the shoulders. "Mr. Bryan. Ms. Matthews. Your managers want to talk to you about your next concert."

"Alright. Thank you Aaron," Luke said.

"Yo Hotch!" another security guard named Derek called to Aaron.

"What is it Morgan?" Aaron asked.

"There is a drunk dude in the front row on the east side of the stage that looks like he is about to try and jump up on stage," Derek told him.

"Get Prentiss and JJ. I'll stay up here with Dave and Reid," Aaron ordered, walking off.

Derek gave a mock salute to him before hurrying off.

Alright y'all, here is a challenge. Name the show that the security team is from and type your first name after it. The first person who gets it right I will write into the next chapter! Sorry about the late update. Wattpad wouldn't let me sign in!
