     Ashton and I kissed for about ten seconds. I pulled apart, slowly. It felt so strange to be kissing another pair of lips other than Michael's. I could easily remember the feeling of Ashton's arms around my waist and lips on mine from high school when we dated. But still, it felt unnatural. But at that point, i was depressed, and slightly desperate. I stood there, looking into his eyes. Tears pricked my own. I was so scared Michael would never come back to me. But we had been there so many times. Breaking up, then getting together again. So many pointless fights. So many real fights. My thoughts rush through my mind. Should I allow this fling with Ash to continue? He had never doen anything bad to me personally. Just cheated on me... But that was in the past... He wouldnt do that again. Would he? And Michael. Michael had faught with me, left me countless times, cheated on me, and hit me. Then why did we crawl back to eachother every time?

     "Ally, are you okay? I'm sorry if i rushed yo-" I cut him off by pressing my lips against his again. He led me out into the hall and pressed my back up against the wall, running his hands up and down my sides. I reach my hands up and twirl his curly hair inbetween my fingers. I felt his spine twinge as I tugged on his hair slightly. He pushed up my shirt and rested his hands on my bare skin gently. I had not been kissed in 9 months, this felt like I was coming into the world after being a nun. But something about it was off. I knew what it was. He wasn't Michael. Eventhough that thought tugged at my mind, I pushed it away. If I intended to get over Michael, I would have to start somewhere right? Eventually, our lips pulled apart. We stared into eachothers eyes for a few moments.

     "Where are the others?" I ask, breathlessly breaking the silence between us. 

     "Back to the hotel, I told them I'd wait behind to talk to you." He said. We had taken some steps away from eachother. Feeling slightly awkward. I didn't say anything. I couldnt really think of something to say. Ashton and mr friendship had slightly fallen out after our break up. It wasnt uncomfortable but that was the closest we had gotten in a very long time. I looked from the walls to the floor, then back to Ashton. He was looking at me intently.

     "What is it?" I ask, confused. He blushes,

     "Well, your just too pretty to be treated the way Michael treats you." He says firmly. I shrug.

     "And Ally... You know I am truly sorry for what I did back in high school." He says, suddenly he feels awkward. Looking away from me and instead staring everywhere else.

     "Ash, that was a long time ago. It doesnt matter anymore. Don't worry."

     "Well then... Ms. Ally Brighten, would you consider giving us a second try?" A smile smile plays on his lips. My mind reels for a moment. Luke had told me that they had canceled the rest of their tour since there was only one show left anyway. They would be in New York for a while and I could use a hand with the babies from them all. Who knows if Michael will keep his promises to me. And I could really stand to have someone with me during the sleepless nights... So why not... I Open my mouth to speak and my words surprise Ashton so much, his mouth drops slightly.

     "Well then Mr. Ashton Irwin, I think I will give us a second try." I smile and peck his cheek as I pass by him, walking into my bedroom. He follows but stays in the doorway. I climb into my bed and look over at him. I pat the place in my bed beside me.

     "You want me to stay?" He asks quietly.

     "Duh. Come here." I smile and hold out my arms. He giggles and kicks off his shoes, getting in beside me. I flick the lightswitch turning them off. I feel his strong arms wrap around my waist, It felt good but different. The way he strokes my hair feels different then how Michael kisses the back of my neck. Maybe this would work. Maybe it was ment to be. I could not wait for Michael forever, especially if he was not coming back. Would He? 

     I shivered slightly and Ashtons arms held me tighter. I finally relaxed and focuesed on breathing in time with Ashton, slowly falling asleep.
