"W-Why are you here?" I stuttered out.

"I'm visiting with my mates," he replied his grin faltering a little.

"Wait, so who's Aunt Nora and Uncle Sean's grandson?" I asked.

"That'd be me," Ashton replied.

My eyes widened as he said that.

"And who are you?" He asked.

"Charlie. I'm your cousin," I replied.

He raised a questioning eyebrow, "My mom's the niece of Nora and Sean," I explained.

He nodded, "Nice to meet you Charlie.” He stuck out a hand. I shook it with a smile on my lips.

"So our mum's are cousins too? Huh that's kinda cool I guess," Ashton said shrugging.

"Yeah," I agreed.

"How long are you here for?" He asked.

"My mom and I flew into Heathrow three days ago. My sisters studying in South London, so we picked her up and flew over to Dublin. We're leaving next Friday," I explained.

"We were recording in London and got a week and a half off. Calum and I didn't want to be stuck in London so I suggested we come here. Michael took some convincing, but we got him to come along. We arrived yesterday. We're leaving next Friday as well," Ashton explained.

"So the rest of the boys are here, yeah?" I asked.

"Yup," he replied, popping the 'p.' I pulled my headphone out of my ear turning off the music and storing my phone back in my pocket.

I guess it hadn't actually sunk in that I was in the presence of Ashton Irwin, a member of my favorite band, my second favorite drummer of all time.

Ringo all the way bro.

I guess that fact that he was my cousin hadn't sunk in either.

Ash motioned for me to follow him.

"You're not going to kill me right? Cause I just got accepted to college. I plan on attending," I asked.

Ashton threw his head back filling the air with a melodic laugh.

"So you've caught onto my plan haven't you?" He asked raising an eyebrow.

"I'm out!" I exclaimed turning on my heels, laughing as I fast walked away from Ashton. His hand grasped my wrist pulling me backwards.

"Come on, to the dungeon we go," he joked as he pulled me farther away from the house.
