Ashton Irwin Imagines & One-Shots

Nerves (Request)

Okie so from now on I think imma give y/n a name and it'll just be that same name for the rest of the oneshots and stuff that way I have a set thing because I think it's a bit hard to write with such emotion when it's written under y/n for me and stuff probably we'll see you get me?

Hey! So I'm doing a request here and it's been requested by @DevineMaringerMurray thank you Julia for the request!!

Now I do have to say I changed it a little from what the request was but not super changed enjoy! :)

Btw any names and or places are ones I just kinda made up on the spot so if they are real places sure you can imagine them as those OR you can imagine it to be whatever you want them to be.

Cora smoothed out the number attached to her shirt before picking at it again. Her nerves were just getting the best of her and when she got nerves she tended to fumble around with her fingers. Her head snapped up when she heard her name being called, "Cora Klein," she stood up and walked towards the woman calling her name with the clipboard "you're up next after the girl who's about to go on sweetie."

Nodding her head at the woman, Cora grabbed her guitar and took a deep breath before making her way towards the stage side. She could hear someone talking to her and she could hear herself replying but none of it processed in her mind. All she could focus on was the stage and the audience.

Maybe this was a bad idea to come here and audition? Stage freight and dreaming to be a singer don't go hand in hand, in the complete opposite in fact. The buzzer went off for the girl on stage and it made Cora jump. What if they don't like her? Would this all be for nothing? Driving twenty-seven hours for nothing would be heartbreaking.

Before she knew it the girl on stage was coming through with tears in her eyes, Cora's heart broke knowing that this poor girl's dream was crushed (even if it was a questionable dream). A microphone was pressed into her hand and Cora was shuffled out onto the stage. Walking to the centre to the little tape on the floor she was to stand on. She stopped and looked up at the judges, "hello my dear what's your name and where are you from?"

Cora took a deep breath before lifting the mic to her mouth and quietly responding "hello, my name is Cora Klein and I'm from Englewood". Her eyes darting between all of the judges, four of them sitting right in front of her. Kandy Jenson, Ashton Irwin, Allison Webster, and Max Rines.

Max's eyebrows furrowed before he asked "how far away is that?"

A blush formed on Cora's cheeks before the response came out, "about twenty-seven to twenty-eight hours if you drive sir"

Kandy's eyes widened at Cora's answer "did you drive?" A quick nod of her head confirmed it. "Now before we let you get on to singing one last question, how old are you?"

Cora smiled and spoke into the mic "I'm nineteen ma'am" she watched Ashton's eyes widen at her before she moved to get into place. Stage freight already plagued her and she was not excited for the slight embarrassment of singing one of Ashton's band's songs in front of him but she knew her rendition of it complimented her voice and skills.

Cora started to play her guitar, her acoustic folky soft version of the song was unexpected to everyone. Her soft voice rang out through the speakers
"Do do do d-do do do do do do

She's a good girl
She's Daddy's favorite
He's saved for Harvard
He know she'll make it
She's good at school
She's never truant
She can speak French
(I think she's fluent)

'Cause every night she studies hard in her room
At least that's what her parents assume
But she sneaks out the window to meet with her boyfriend
Here's what she told me the time that I caught her

She said to me,
"Forget what you thought
'Cause good girls are bad girls that haven't been caught.
So just turn around and forget what you saw
'Cause good girls are bad girls that haven't been caught.

Whoa oh oh oh- oh whoa oh
Good girls are bad girls that haven't been caught

She's a good girl
A straight A student
She's really into
All that self-improvement
I swear she lives in that library
But if you ask her she'll say,
"That's where you'll find me!"

But if you look then you won't find her there
She may be clever but she just acts too square
'Cause in the back of the room where nobody looks
She'll be with her boyfriend
She's not reading books!

Whoa oh oh oh- oh whoa oh
Good girls are bad girls that haven't been caught"

Cora stepped away from the mic with a small small on her face, the audience and judges on their feet clapping. Her mind was blown, she never expected to get a reaction like that.

Cora made it all the way through to the end, she won the show. Her name called out after the host read the results. Confetti fell around her as tears streamed down her face. Looking back on that day Cora couldn't believe how much she's changed. Two years later, she was just twenty-one now but she was more confident in herself on stage. Her lyrics improved and biggest of all.

Her love life improved drastically and unexpectedly. When she saw him for the first time she didn't even realise that she'd end up falling in love with him but here she was, deep in love with Ashton Irwin with her feelings deeply returned. Laying in their bed Cora snuggled into the arms of her boyfriend, feeling them tighten around her pulling her closer even in his sleep.

Some people were skeptical at first but once they saw how much the two loved each other they warmed up to it pretty quickly. Cora's career was flourishing as was Ashton's. Even with the proceeds they were earning they spent a large amount of their money towards the homeless and needing families. Giving someone the chance they need to make their life great. They stayed humble and thankful for their place in life.

Cora drifted off to sleep knowing she helped save people whether it be from her donations or be from her happy spirit and music. A light kiss was pressed to her head before she got lost into her dreams.

Okay so originally the request was regarding americas got talent and I realised after I finished writing it that I didn't mention that anywhere but I mean there was subtle hints of it right?

I did change it a little Julia and I hope that's okay! If you need me to explain just dm me and I'll let you know why! I hope you liked it tho :)

Okay so if you did like it, it'd be amazing if you clicked the like button and also followed me and comment your thoughts!

Humour me y'all lol it's 2:30am and I'm nauseous and writing this. Anyways I have other books just like this one (just you know all the other boys) and if you enjoyed any of my oneshots here I'm sure you'd enjoy my other ones too! Now I'm going to get going because I need sleep.
Also looking back it kinda looks like a disaster but I know I'll probably be reassured that it's not soon

Love you guys so much! Goodnight.
