There were a few days left until Christmas. I was so excited. I had reconnected with my only friend in Illinois. We were out for coffee when Ashton came up in the conversation.

"He uh, he's doing well I think. I haven't really talked to him since I left." I admitted.

"And why is that?" She asked.

"Well he cheated on me with some girl. I didn't really listen to his side of the story but I don't think he really cared about me at all."

She scoffed and shook her head. "From what you told me he does care about you, he just made a stupid mistake. Just talk to him when you get back to school."

I nodded and looked down at my phone. I had a text from my mom telling me I needed to hurry home. I quickly said goodbye to my friend and made my way to my house.

I rushed in through the door and right in front of me stood Sydnee, and none other than Ashton.

"Why is he here?" I asked.

"He practically begged me to take him here. He got a ticket and everything. I wish I could stay but I really need to get home. Everyone is wondering where I am." Sydnee shrugged a bit. "And I'm sorry."  She smiled weakly.

I walked over to her and hugged her. "I forgive you. I know you didn't mean to do anything." I walked with her to he door and waved as she drove down the road. I sighed and closed the door. I turned around and saw Ashton sitting on the couch, one of the photo albums resting on his lap. I walked over to him and sat down. "I hope you know this doesn't change anything at all. You cheated on me and it was totally bogus."

Ashton looked over at me. "Yeah and you cheated on me with Mikey. So I guess we are even." he looked through the photo album again.

"Then why are you even here Ashton?" I asked. He knew I wasn't happy with him.

"Because you're the only person I want to be with. And I wanted to see you. My family is okay with me staying here for Christmas. It's not like they would miss me anyways." He scoffed.

I frowned slightly and shook my head. "That's not true Ash. Harry and Lauren love you so much."

He just shook his head and grabbed his bags. I knew that my parents were in on this. They never had a problem with Ashton. Even with the piercings and tattoos. I don't know what had changed from the beginning of the school year until now, but I liked it. I watched as he walked up the stairs. My feet were taking me to the spare room we had, the one he would obviously be staying in. I pushed open the door gently and bit my lip when a shirtless Ashton stood in front of me. I looked him up and down and he just laughed softly.

"So you like what you see Emmy?" Ashton asked.

I simply shook my head and laughed. "You're so cocky Ashton. If you need anything I'm right across the hall." I smiled and walked into my room, closing the door. I sigh softly. I honestly can't believe he came all the way here just to try and spend time with me. He probably feels bad for cheating on me with that Megan girl. I kind of feel bad for her. Ashton probably just forced her to come with him to the party. I had seen her around at school. She was in the volleyball program and I had to admit she was pretty good. I shook my head and decided I needed to sleep. I changed out of my jeans and into a pair of yoga shorts. I laid in bed after turning off the light and quickly drifted off to sleep.

Ashton's POV

I was in her house. I honestly thought she would have forced me to leave. But I'm so glad she didn't. I had so much to do to make everything better. I was a dick for sending Mikey over to her room to check on her. He was only supposed to tell her that I would be a little late, but when he told me that she slept with him I had to get back at her. But everything backfired. I was still too afraid to confront her about sleeping with him. For now I just kind of pushed it out of my mind. I sighed and grabbed the guitar case sitting on the bed. Luke had taught me how to play for the tour over the summer. I tuned the guitar and began to play All About You by McFly.

It's all about you

It's all about you, baby

It's all about you

It's all about you

Yesterday you asked me something I thought you knew

So I told you with a smile, it's all about you

Then you whispered in my ear and you told me too

Said you'd make my life worthwhile, it's all about you

And I would answer all your wishes

If you ask me to

But if you deny me one of your kisses

Don't know what I'd do

So hold me close and say three words

Like you used to do

Dancing on the kitchen tiles

It's all about you, yeah

And I would answer all your wishes

If you ask me to

But if you deny me one of your kisses

Don't know what I'd do

So hold me close and say three words

Like you used to do

Dancing on the kitchen tiles

Yes, you make my life worthwhile

So I told you with a smile, it's all about you

It's all about you

It's all about you, baby

It's all about you

It's all about you

It's all about you

It's all about you, baby

It's all about you

It's all about you

I look up and see Emmy. Her jaw dropped. I looked away and began to put the guitar away.

"I didn't know you liked McFly." her voice was soft and fragile.

"I love McFly. They are an inspiration." I smiled softly. I looked Emmy up and down. She was in one of my shirts and a pair of shorts. Her hair was up and all her makeup was off. I can easily say this is my favourite side of her.

"I fell in love with them when I was like twelve or thirteen." Emmy smiled softly.

"Do you wanna go to Chicago with me?" I blurted out.

Emmy looked shocked at first, but then she smiled.

"I'd love to Ashton. When are we going?" She asked me.

"Tomorrow." I smiled softly.
