Skylars P.O.V

Ashton and I walk back to the car and quickly leave.

"Thank you for everything." I say when our hands find one another. Ashton smiles at me and shakes his head.

"No Sky. Thank y-" He starts only to be cut off by his phone. "Its Calum. He is probably fangirling about his date with Paige."

I smile and Ashton puts Cal on speaker and sits the phone on the middle compartment.

"Hey Cal. How did it-" I start.

"Ashton Fletcher *Hiccup* Irwin!!!!! My *Hiccup* mannnnnnn! Comme baaaackkk and cuuuuudleee *Hiccup*" Calum slurs into the phone. My eyes widen and I look to Ashton as he drops his head into his hands.

"Cal dont move. Im on my way. Just stay where you are mate." He says before hanging up the phone.

"I'll take you home soon. I've gotta make sure he doesn't do anything incredibly stupid. Well anything else." Ashton says as we peel out onto the road.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Asssshhhh!!!!" Calum slurs as we enter the house.

"Calum your damn shit faced!" Ashton yells. Calum flips him off and looks to me.

"Skylar!" He yells trying to wrap his arms around me. He misses and I catch him from hitting the floor.

"C'mon Cal. Let's get you to bed." Ashton says taking Calum from my arms.

"Wait! Skylar?" Calum asks over his shoulder.

"Tell Paige I didn't mean it *hiccup* and I'm sorry," he says. Ashton drags a slipping Calum up the stairs and then comes back to the doorway.

"Oh god. We have to get back to my house like now." I say.

"Way ahead of you. C'mon." Ashton says taking my hand as we rush to the car.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I open the door and see Paige with a tear stained face and a ton of empty alcohol bottles.

"Paige," I say with a sigh. Ashton and I rush over to her and I kneel down to see her full face as Ashton takes the remaining liquor from her hand and sits next to her.

"He said I was fassssst." She slurs with a sob. My eyes widen and so do Ashton's. She's close to shitfaced but I can probably get some answers out of her.

"Paige," I say looking to the floor.

"I knew he was too good for me. It was too good to be true." She sobs. Ashton places a hand on her shoulder and gently squeezes.

"Paige. I doubt Calum meant it that way. He was probably caught in the moment. What happened?" I asked.

"He asked me to be his girlfriend. I said it was a bit fast and he said I seemed like a fast girl. I called him some not nice names and left." She says slowly.

"Aw damn it Cal." Ashton says quietly. I look at him and he just shakes his head.

"Paige, he meant that as a complement. In his own awkward way I swear he did. I can see how you would take it as an insult but trust me it wasn't. He just really liked-well likes you and he wanted to make sure he wouldn't lose you." Ashton says. Paige looks at him and starts to smile.

"Ok...I'll go say sorry." With that I'm pushed to the floor and Paige is sprinting with my keys out of the house.

"PAIGE STOP!!" Ashton yells as he chases after her. I rush to the door behind him and see Paige speed down the road.

"The house isn't too far so she could make it." Ashton says. I nod and sigh heavily. I'm exhausted. Dealing with cleaning and collage shit all day and then going out with Ash, then of course dealing with Paige and Calum. I let out a yawn without even knowing I do.

"I guess that's my cue to go." Ashton says with a laugh. He kisses my cheek and takes me in his arms. My arms wrap around his neck and he carries me up the stairs to the bed. My eyelids are heavy and I can barely keep them open. Ashton walks over to the dresser and grabs my pj shorts, they have hearts on them! And my white tank top from the top of it. I take them and change my shorts under the covers. Folding my jean shorts I place them on the chest at the foot of the bed. Ashton looks at me skeptically.

"Turn around." I say. He does and I quickly change my shirt. Placing those on the chest as well, Ashton turns around and smiles. He walks over to me and smiles sitting next to my legs as I lay in bed tracing circles on his hand.

"I know I've said it too much, but I missed you." He says tucking the loose hair behind my ear. I smile and nod.

"I missed you too. I'm so happy you're back in my life." I say looking up at him. His eyes sparkle and his smile grows. Before I know what comes over me I pull him down to my lips. I feel him smile into the kiss and when we break away his lips stay centimeters from mine.

"Goodnight Sky," he says quietly. With a soft peck to my nose he gets off the bed and walks out of the room. The second he leaves I feel empty. The way I felt when he was with me was indescribable. The way he just makes everything positive and bright...I need him here...

I quickly grab my phone and call him.

"Sky?" Ashton asks with a laugh.

"I wanna go to sleep Ash." I say.

"Then go to sleep baby." He says sweetly. My heart flutters

"I can't." I say.

"And why not?" He asks. I hear a car door shut from outside and on the phone.

"You're not holding me." I say quietly. I can practically hear him smile.

"I'll be right up." He says before ending the call.

I hear the front door open and see Ashton in the doorway in seconds.

"Bottom drawer farthest to the left has some of Justin's clothes." I mumble as my eyes begin to droop. I open them to see Ashton's shirt off and him pulling down his jeans. Oh hot damn. I quickly shut my eyes and wait for him to get dressed. I know he's done when I feel the bed shift. I feel him slide under the duvet with me and can't help but smile when his arm wraps around my waist pulling me to him. I turn to face him and curl into him. Our legs intertwine and I finally let sleep start to win.

"Better?" Ashton asks quietly.

"Perfect," is the last thing I say before sleep engulfs me.

Paige's P.O.V

(Earlier that night)

Calum opened the door and I threw my arms around him.

"I'm so sorrrry." I say. He nods against my shoulder.

"Mee too. I didn't mean it liiiike that." He slurs. I have no control over my actions yet I can't say I didn't mean to kiss him. Our tongues are quickly introduced and he has me in his arms in seconds with my legs wrapped around his torso. We stumble up the stairs the alcohol radiating off of us. I don't think this is a good idea. Yet the moans come involuntarily when he sucks harshly on my neck. We shuffle to the bed and I'm on it in seconds and Calum is hovering over me our lips once again reunited. I feel him start to unzip my dress and I don't stop him. Partly because I can't and partly because I don't know if I want him to stop or not.

"If you want me to stop tell me. I will." He says as he slips my dress off.

I stay silent and we continue. Hope Skylar doesn't need her car in the morning cause it won't be back.
