"Thanks so much for coming over and having dinner Ashton dear." My mom smiled brightly over at Ashton who nodded in return a smile on his face.

"It was a pleasure." He replied.

"Sorry about the whole photo fiasco, but you two do look adorable so it shouldn't really matter." She stated and he nodded a faint blush setting on my face as I thought about all the people who have seen that photo.

"Its not a problem, this way people will know that she's mine now." Ashton stated and I looked over at him to see him staring down at me, his eyes darkening making my heart skip a beat.

"Aw, that is just too cute." My mother gushed making me look back down.

"I also wanted to talk to you about something Joanne, in private." He stated and my mother nodded smiling as she ushered the two of them inside to the living room, away from the hallway.

What would they be talking about?

I didn't get the chance to sneak on their talk, before they came back out as soon as they went in, my mother looking over at me with a mischievous look making me gulp.

Giving Ashton a questioning look, he merely shrugged before opening the door. "Thank you again for having me over for dinner." He smiled over at my mother who smiled back.

"It was a pleasure to have you, you must come around and I'll show you some baby pictures of Emily." My mother grinned, making me shout in protest.

I shook my head as she retreated back into the kitchen, leaving Ashton and I alone.

I gasped as Ashton pressed me against the door, before my gasp was silenced as he pressed his lips against mine.

It was a sweet, gentle kiss, a kiss that made me lean in wanting more.

Abruptly, Ashton pushed away from me, making my eyes snap open in confusion.

Looking up at him, his eyes were glossed over for a few moments, before snapping back in reality.

Gazing down on me, he looked down with a soft expression, pressing his lips against my forehead, before bringing me to the side, opening the door.

"I have to leave for a couple of days, but I'll be back." 

Without waiting for my reply, he walked out the door, closing it behind himself.

What just happened?

+_+_+_+_+_+

A week had gone passed and I hadn't heard from Ashton, or any of the Taylor family, I had gone over to their house, to check up on Ashton, only no one was home.

After a few days had gone by without a word from Ashton, I was beginning to get worried. The last time he left, he left for 4 years.

The bell rung, and I looked up to see that I had blanked out of my last class of the day. Sighing, I grabbed my books, placing them in my bag, before getting up and walking out.

"You want to come over to my place tonight?"

Turning towards the voice as I stepped out the room, I looked over to see Sky walking over towards me, linking arms before we made our way over to our lockers.

"I don't know, I kind of just want to go home and sleep." I replied.

"You shouldn't keep yourself locked up like that, you know he'll be back. He has to, your his ma- uh girlfriend." Sky replied, her words mixing up, my eyes widening as I realized that she was going to use the word 'mate'.
