Proud - Keep You

Chapter 34

Aston’s POV:

A month had passed; Ivy AND (Your name) were ignoring me. For a whole month they just ignored me. I began to think that if I threw myself off the edge of a cliff, they wouldn’t give a crap!

Although today was the day, the tour bus was coming around to pick everyone up to start making our way to Manchester where the tour would kick off.

“ASTON today is the day, oh, my, gosh! So excited,” Lydia giggled as she ran up to me and hugged me, but my enthusiasm wasn’t in the mood. “Hey, what’s wrong?” She asks, as I sigh and look down, “nothing... It’s okay,” “you sure?” “Yeah... I’m fine,” I smile faintly, but she frowns. She knew something was wrong; it was obvious there was.

Leon then spoke up, “where’s (Your name)?” He asks almost like an announcement; instantly everyone turns to me. “What?” “Where is she?” “I don’t know,” I mumble “how come?” Georgina asks “I- I just don’t know, okay?” I say softly as I make a swift move out the door, but nearly walk into Marvin as I do so.

Marvin’s POV:

“What’s up with him?” I ask bewildered as I walk into the dance studio, where Leon and all the dancers were. “We don’t know... He’s just really down,” Lydia says as I nod, “okay... Well (Your name) has just arrived and is waiting by the tour bus,” I say, but everyone is down and not in high spirits. “What’s wrong?” “Aston,” Georgina says quietly, “well, one of you go and get him... We have to start making a move,” I tell them, before making my way to the tour bus.

Lydia’s POV:

Walking into the men’s toilet, I find Aston leaning on the worktop of the sinks, covering his face with his hands as he cries softly. The sight makes my heart break.

“Ast...” I begin as he looks at me and tries to sort himself out, but he knows it’s too late to and stops, however he continues to cry. “The tour bus is ready,” I add as he nods “okay... Err... Thank you,” he mumbles and chokes on a couple of tears as he does anything to make himself try and be stronger. “Ast, tell me... What’s wrong? I’m not gonna tell anyone and the whole crew is worried,” I sigh and tell him quietly as he looks at me and frowns. “(Your name) and Ivy have been ignoring me this whole month,” he sobs as I frown “really? Why?” “Me and (Your name) had a falling out, and in the morning I had a go at Ivy for no reason,” “so that explains the day you were really pissed off?” “Yeah,” he continues to sob as my heart falls for him. So I walk up to him and embrace him in a hug, which he accepts and hugs me back.

“Everything will be okay, yeah?” “Will it?” He asks almost like a child would. “Yeah, trust me Ast... Everything will begin to come through-” “But if I jumped off a cliff, I bet she wouldn’t give a crap,” “aye, Ast... Of course she’d give a crap. The whole bloody nation would! Ast look on the bright side... She loves you...” As I tell him this he scoffs “hey! She does, she’s just a little mad... Well I don’t know, I wasn’t there, but you’ll see, everything will go back to normal,” I whisper to him, as something happens and eye contact is made...

(Your name)’s POV:

“Hey... What’s happened between you and Aston?” JB asked quietly, as you had just packed your bag into the luggage container of the tour bus. “We had a falling out,” “mm, Marvin said that Aston rushed off to the men’s loos because he more or less couldn’t cope with the fact something has happened,” he tells you quietly, as you stand and frown. “Alright, I’ll go talk to him... Plus, I have ignored him for this whole month,” you sigh as JB is shocked, “well we gotta leave in like ten minutes, so maybe you could go to him now?” He suggests, as you sigh and nod “okay, I won’t be long,” you smile before walking back into the building over to the men’s loos.

Stepping into the toilet, you walked forward to overcome the side wall that was blocking the sinks. However, when you come beyond that wall... The sight is not what you expected.

Lydia was sitting upon the worktop of the sinks, as Aston stood between her legs, her hands connected to the back of his cheeks as his hands were on her hips, but their lips... Entwined passionately, creating a heat between the two.

Although without saying a word, you left leaving the two to continue to kiss...

Storming onto the tour bus, you instantly shot upstairs and sat on the sofa, but you realized that JB followed, but you glared at him. “What’s wrong?” “What’s wrong? I’ll explain, shall I?” You snap, taking him aback. “A certain someone told me, to go look for Aston... So I do, and what do I find?! HIM KISSING LYDIA IN THE BATHROOM, WITH HIM STANDING BETWEEN HER LEGS,” you scream, but you realize that the tour bus has gone completely silent. The whole bus just heard what you screamed.

“Sorry!” Two voices said as it sounds like they stumble onto the tour bus, but as the tour bus starts its engine, the bus has nothing to say.
