Leaving (An Ashton Irwin Fan Fic) *in major editing*

23

Darcy's POV:

Avoiding Ashton had become more of a habit since the kiss. It's not that I'm embarrassed or didn't enjoy the kiss, its actually the opposite. I liked it. A lot. I guess you could say that I'm more worried about what is going to happen next. Did he feel the same as i did? Is he even going to bring it up? 

The boys have been really busy for the past few days and i haven't really seen any of them very much. Syco keep on calling them in for on the spot meetings and the One Direction lads keep on wanting to meet up with them and hang out. This means that whenever they are home i tend to stay away from them because of the fear i have of Ashton's reaction and i miss my brother. 

My mind seems to be overrun by thoughts of Ashton when i know that their are much more important things for me to be thinking about. The fact that my University Interview thing is later on today being the main thing. With my thoughts constantly being sidetracked by Ashton i seem to be thinking less and less about it. In some ways it's kind of a good thing because it means that im not as anxious as i would have expected. 

"What's got in to you recently?" Michael asked as came and sat down on my bed with me.

"Well, mainly food and drink." I laughed so hopefully he would assume I'm fine. 

"Oh, ha-ha." He sarcastically remarked as he nudged my shoulder with his. "I miss your awful humour, it feels like i haven't seen you in ages." Michael playfully pouted. 

"He's right, you're humour is awful." Calum randomly came in and sat down with us. Instead of sassing him out i ran up to my brother and hugged him as tightly as i could. "I know I'm amazing, but why are you hugging me?" 

"What? Am i not allowed to hug my brother when he randomly walks in to my room? That's cruel Hood." I took a step back and looked at him straight in the eyes. "Carry on like that and you are going to find yourself a hug free person."

"Oh Darcy. Hug me continuously because it isn't weird in the slightest and i will never complain about it again." He sarcastically remarked as he pulled me back in to the hug. 

"Have you two been having sarcasm lessons recently?" I looked between the two boys and they just laughed. 

"We have been hanging around with Ashton after all." I wonder if they know. He wouldn't tell them, would he? Would Calum even be okay with it? Shit. 

"Yeah, uh, how is he?" I asked, a lot more nervously than i would have liked

"He's been acting as usual Ashton would do i suppose. Little bit happier i guess, not much." Michael chimed in. 

Michael and Calum then started going on about something that Ashton had said during one of their meetings. He's been acting happier though, that is a good thing at least. If he's being nicer then its less of a chance that he is going to ridicule me for what happened the other day. He is equally, if not more to blame than i am. He kissed me. 

I left Calum and Michael to it and began picking out the outfit that i had already planned on wearing. It was just an average black dress that i got years ago for my college interview. (photo in the sidebar) As it's February i was planning on wearing it with a white blazer. I took my outfit in to the bathroom as it was quite obvious that neither Calum or Michael were going to leave me to get dressed in peace. Thank God for private bathrooms. 

I curled my hair so that it hung in loose waves and then pulled it over so that it rested over one of my shoulders. My makeup was minimum but i applied a small amount of eyeliner so that it made my eyelashes look fuller. I grabbed my heels which i had strategically placed outside of my bathroom and began making my way downstairs. Michael and Calum had obviously had enough of talking in my room as they weren't there anymore. Do any of them even remember that i have my interview today?

"Geeze, why are you all dressed up for?" Luke commented as he i joined them all in the sitting room. "You look amazing!"

"No one remember? I have my interview today, in like.." I checked my phone for the time. "an hour."

I looked round at them all and they all wore the same expression. Clueless. Ashton however kept on stairing at me whilst the others were apologising about how they had forgot and telling me that i was going to do great. We kept eye contact for a couple of seconds and it was somehow reasuring. To me it meant that things weren't going to be weird between us. It meant that maybe i wasn't going to have to keep avoiding him. 

"I'll drive you if you want." He suddenly spoke. I was still looking at him and he was still looking at me. 

"You don't have a car." I cocked my head slightly to the side at his random gesture. 

"Syco gave us a rental until we can afford our own." He smirked. "I'll drive you."He repeated. 

I was planning on getting a taxi in but even sitting in a car sounds better than sitting in the back of a cab that stinks of multiple body odours. 

"That would be very nice of you." I smiled. 

"When do you want to go?" He asked picking up the keys that were placed to the side of him. 

"About 10 minutes? Its 4 and rush hour is sure to hit soon and i would rather not be late." I answered as i walked in to the kitchen. He agreed. 

I could still feel his gaze on me from the kitchen. In a way i quite liked the fact that he was looking at me. It gave me some confidence that i never usually have. I grabbed a bottle of water and looked over at him. I was right, he was still looking at me. I nodded my head at him as if to tell him that i knew he was looking at me. 

Ashton's POV:

Holy fuck she looks hot. She knows what she is doing to me and she looks like she is enjoying the attention. The dress stops just above the knee and clings to her amazingly. I have never noticed that she had such amazing curves until now. I literally can not take my eyes off of her. I look over at Calum and back at her to try and find out how they had possibly shared a womb for 9 months. 

She bent down and hooked each of her heels on to her feet. When she stood back up she looked even hotter. Her legs looked so much longer and slimmer and just overall perfect. This girl is good. 

My mind keeps on drifting to things that i shoudn't be thinking of but as time passes i can't help myself. I can pretty much see her dress falling around her ankles as she looks up at me. If i am dreaming then fucking leave me be because this is amazing. I can imagine her undressed form prancing over to me as she looks me dead in the eyes. Her deep brown hair cascading perfectly down her back and swishing slightly as she comes closer and closer to me. 

"You ready to go Ashton?" She asked as she walked over to the door, her heels clicking with every step she took. 

Afraid that i wouldn't be able to string a coherant sentence together, i just got up, grabbed the keys and followed her out of the house. She pulled on a plain white blazer and grabbed a handful of her hair and put it back in to place over her right shoulder. I literally feel like I'm in a movie and seeing everything in slow motion and i am not complaining one bit. 

I can remember the feeling of her lips on mine to a tee. Seeing her the way that she is today and the recollection of the kiss was probably drove me to do what i had been planning on doing since she very first walked down them steps. I took her hand in mine and turned her to face me. My eyes staired straight in to hers and hers staired straight back in to mine. I locked our two joined hands together and brought my other one to her cheek. My thumb gently caressed her skin and her head leaned in to my hand. With her still looking straight at me, i brought my lips to hers. It was exactly how i remembered it.

Fireworks.
