<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>
That night went by quickly. Ashton stayed over, and Calum came over too. I watched the movie Turbo on Netflix, and went to sleep at 7, which was quite early for me.
I woke up the next morning, shuddering. My dreams terrified me. Well they weren't really dreams if they were terrifying. They were more like nightmares.
This one was long, taking up the time from 7 to when I woke up (10 am). I won't even bother to explain the whole thing, but basically I went to school and over months I had gained the courage to tell Ashton that I had a small crush on him (which I didn't, of course, because that'd be silly). I got to class and went through the day. Lunch had interrupted the long, but normal day. I went over to the table that Ashton sat at with Taylor, Cal, Luke, and Mikey. I asked Ashton out and he laughed in my face, causing the whole cafeteria to laugh along.
Whoops, looks like I explained the whole thing.
When I had finally waken up, I went downstairs quietly. It was actually silent. I was surprised, considering it was 10 am with two guests over. As soon as I felt the warm rug on my feet, I heard noises coming from the kitchen. I ran to the bathroom to do my hair, which I didn't have time to fix earlier, as I have no bathroom in my room or upstaris.
I saw the door was locked, with light coming from the bottom slit between the door and floor. I froze when I felt a tug on my hair. I whipped my head back to see what had grabbed my hair, when I saw a mess of curly blonde hair right behind me. I smiled and listened to his weak excuses. "Ashton, " I said, calmly and quietly, interrupting his lame blabbering. "I know it was you, and I know it was purposely to annoy me." He parted his lips again to explain. "But I don't care."
The smile returned to his current puppy dog look after I gave him a friendly grin.
Our little conversation was cut off when Calum opened the bathroom door. I lost my self confidence when I remembered the reason I was there was because I needed to brush my hair.
Ashton saw me with messy hair. ASHTON SAW ME IN MESSY HAIR!!! This is bad. He also saw me in my short nighttime shorts. Oh gosh I'm practically naked in this crop top that says kiss me, and shorts that have a lipstick stain on the ass. He probably thinks I'm a slut now... well YOLO!!!!
So I rushed into the bathroom and brushed my hair and teeth, put on some much needed makeup, and finally got out. I walked into the kitchen and frab a bagel for breakfast. Yes, I could of eaten a whole meal of bacon, eggs, pancakes, orange juice, and get seconds of each, but with company, I wasn't planning on pigging out. Ashton grabbed my arm before I could leave. Wow this boy was touchy.
"You aren't going to eat any more than a bagel?" He asked me, seeming actually concerned.
"Nah, usually I can't eat more than a whole waffle," I lied. There was no way I would act like a fatty.
"Here. What if I share my eggs with you? I mean if you want to. Or if you don't like eggs, we can always share pancakes or bacon or something." I smiled at the considerate boy. He was so caring I was blushing. Or at least I was on the inside. I felt my face getung hot but I wasn't sure if I was full out blushing. Ashton patted the seat next to him and I walked over, stumbling twice on my own feet. Oh Lord.
"Thanks!" I said. I didn't know how to respond to him. No one had told him I would eat for days if I could.
"Yeah, no problem. I hope you aren't one of those girls who starves them self to become skinny. I don't like that. They are beautiful, inside and out! I wish they could see that, but sometimes it just takes the right person to realize that." I stared at him in awe, wondering if he knew what he was even saying. People like this are my favorite kinds of people. "But if you do that, I won't judge. I mean, like... ugh! Words are tough to use!"
I laughed kindly. "Yeah, I understand."
We sat in silence for a few minutes. My Mom and Dad were still sleeping and Taylor and Calum were in the living room, trying to beat each other's high scores on Mario Kart.
"Sooooo...." Ash started.
"I have an idea. Why don't we play 20 questions?" I suggested. "It'll give us an idea of what the other person is like!"
Ashton agreed and told me to start. "Ummm why do you have an Australian accent if you are in the US?"
"Okay well Calum, Luke, Mikey, and I are all, quite obviously, from Australia. Our parents wanted us to come to the United States to pursue our career in singing."
"Cool! Your turn!"
"Why did you lie about not eating a waffle without feeling sick?" He asked. He saw me blushing and explained, "You've eaten seven of my pancakes while I've been picking at half of one."
So much for that. "Okay well I don't like eating in front of guys." Short. And simple. "My turn!"
That went on for a while. Nothing too important happened. Just a lot of talking. We went beyond 20 questions. Mom and Dad finally woke up, shooing us out of the kitchen to eat their own breakfast.
I never noticed how cute Ash eats.... then again, I only met him yesterday.
