You Don't Understand(Ashton Irwin)

Ch.7

Ashlynn's POV

I was getting off the bus going home, but then someone stopped me. I turned around to see it was Ashton.

"Hey, could I walk you home.. I'm kind of worried what they'll do to you.." He said trailing off.

"Please?" Was all I could say. I was scared too.. After what happened yesterday, I'm scared he's still home.. I honestly never been beaten so severely before..

"I'm right here," he said rapping his arm around me in a friendly and protective way.

I nodded in response. I'm honestly glad he is here for me rather saying hateful things.. Although it was really sudden, but I guess he finally realized, and put all of that aside. He is going to be here for me and I am always going to be there for him.

Before we knew it, we were already at my house. He slowly let go of me. I wished he wouldn't, I felt so safe. I wasn't ready yet.

"I'll see you later," he said giving me a side hug before he turned away.

I went up to my door and I saw a note.

'Ashlynn, We went on a FAMILY vacation, so of course you'll be home, so when we come back, the house better be SPOTLESS or you are in huge trouble. -parents and Jake'.

Relief filled the air. 2 weeks without them.. I turned around to see if Ashton was near. He wasn't too far away.

"ASHTON!!" I called out.

"Yeah?!" I heard a faint reply. He started running my way. I waited for him to come.

"My family went on a vacation for Christmas, I was wondering if you could help me a little with my house, I don't want to be alone.." I said kinda needy.

"Sure," he said chuckling. Oh my gosh.. I can't get over his laughs, though.

I fiddled the key and unlocked the door and we went inside.

"Nice place.. What needs to be cleaned? It's already spotless!" He said in shock.

"I have to clean everyone's rooms, my brother's and my parents rooms are deaths waiting to happen, I have to wash dishes, which is a nightmare right now in there, I have to do useless crap like dust, sweep, mop, and other shit.." I listed with my fingers.

"Damn.. Here, I'll do your brothers room, considering I know how boys live, and I'll sweep, mop and dust the upstairs," he called.

"Ok, I got parents room, and I'll sweep, mop and dust downstairs.. And yeah.. We should do the dishes together.. It is a huge nightmare that is too much for a single person.." I cringed.

"Deal, but dishes can't be that bad, can they?" He asked laughing a bit. I sighed and shook my head

"Go look yourself.." I said pointing to the kitchen.

He chuckled to himself walking to the kitchen. 3. 2. 1- "oh my god..." He said coming in. I laughed at his reaction.

"Yeah.. I see what you mean now.." He trailed off.

"Ok, let's get started, we'll do that last!" I laughed.

Ashton's POV

I went to her brother's room to start cleaning. God damn.. This is worse than my room.

I grabbed his clothes and put them in the dirty clothes basket. Then I picked up the trash and old food on the floor and put them in the trash bag Ashlynn given me before I came up here.

I cleaned under his bed and in his closet.. Had to kill a couple of bugs while doing. Now to his desk, then his dresser.. And make his bed..

Once I was finally finished with this slob's room, I went to dust. There wasn't that much to dust, but I went over things anyway. I then grabbed the broom and swept all of the rooms followed with mopping them. I checked the rooms one more good time making sure they looked decent before heading back downstairs.
