                       *Bethany's POV*

I glanced at Ashton who was drumming his fingers on the steering wheel to the song playing on the radio, Hot Chelle Rae. He caught my eye and winked at me before focusing on the road ahead of him. 

"Ash," I began, "can we go into Victoria Secret when we get to the mall?" 

I watched him gulp and clear his throat, "um why?"

"I need to get new tracksuit bottoms..." 

He let out a sigh of... relief? He nodded his head and grabbed hold of my hand with his free hand. The electricity still running through my veins even after all this time.

"What do you think of these ones?" I asked, twirling around in the grey tracksuit bottoms. 

"I think your butt looks amazing in them," Ashton replied, smirking. I rolled my eyes and decided I wanted to buy them. I had also decided to buy a new lace bra which went down well with Ashton, might I add.

"That'll be $44.50, please," the cashier said, eyeing Ashton up and down with a creepy smile on her face. I could feel my insides boil and I threw a fifty on the desk before grabbing the bag and saying, "keep the change."

I ran out of the shop and looked behind me to see Ashton smiling and laughing with the pretty cashier. My insides dropped as I saw her hand him a piece of paper.... her phone number. I didn't look to see his reaction I quickly ran away from the shop into the ladies restroom and let the tears fall down. 

How could he? He said he loved me. Lying, stupid little dickhead. Who you love... that annoying voice in my head said.

"Hello?" my best friend Kendra said answering her phone. 

"Kens?"

"Beth what's wrong, are you okay?!"

"No... it's Ashton... I saw him flirting with some gorgeous girl with red hair and big boobs in Victoria Secret."

"That little son of a-" 

"Kendra... I love him."

"I know Beth, I know. Do you want me to come pick you up? We can have a girly night with ice cream and movies and bitch about how stupid boys are?"

I let out a giggle. "Yes please... I'm at Rouse Hill." [***]

"Ok chica see ya soon airhead!" with that, she hung hung up. 

Kendra was the best friend ever. It's official.

Walking out of the bathroom I ran into the last person I wanted to. Ashton.

"Baby? Why did you run away?" his voice sent shivers down my spine. Stop it Beth.

"Why don't you ask that big boobed bimbo aye?"

"Sophie?" he asked. Great so he even knows her name.

"I don't give a fuck what her name was Ashton!"

"What's wrong with you?!"

"What's wrong with me?! I'm not the one flirting with other guys, Ashton!"

"Flirting? What are you fucking on about?"

Is he completely stupid?! "YES! Flirting!"

He groaned and ran a hand through his hair. Damn he looks sexy when he's confused. "We weren't flirting!"

My phone beeped and I could see Kendra's name pop up. "Whatever Ashton. We're through." and with that I turned and walked away. Before I was out of view I shouted, "have fun sexting Sophie, Ashton!" and saw the distraught look on his face turn to utter confusion. 

I ran through the shopping mall trying to get out of there as quick as possible. I stopped to catch my breath at one point and buy a starbucks for Kendra and I. 

I saw people from school and tried to avoid eye contact with them, knowing I'd be sucked into a conversation if I didn't.

Finally I made it to the carpark and saw Kendra's car, empty car, parked near the entrance. Where is she?! That was when it hit me... Right in the middle of a carpark... Ashton and I were over. I'd never get to kiss his rough lips again, feel his big hands run up and down my body, I'd never be able to tease him and turn him on at awkward times... It was all over. 

I let the tears I had been holding back release, quickly turning in to sobs.

I felt a hand come over my shoulder and pull me into a hug. "Come on, let's go home," Kendra whispered. I nodded weakly, turning my head around hoping to see Ashton running up like in the movies.

But I didn't... because it was all over.

End Notes: Hello there... I'm backkkkkkkkkk ;) 

Sooooooo Ashton and Beth broke up?! Do you think they'll get back together? Do you think Sophie did give him her number? Will she stick around?;)
