Want You Back

Chapter 11

Ashton and Zoe talked most of the night. Just talking. For a second, Zoe forgot everything and thought about the time before. The time before the storm. Where everything was perfect.

Since it was getting very late, Ashton was allowed to sleep on the beloved couch. The sun was shining through the curtains, so Ashton was jolted out of his sleep. He rubbed his eyes and stretched.

Half naked, Ashton walked around the apartment and decided to make breakfast. I'm sure Zoe will be happy about that.

The smell of freshly made coffee drifted through the apartment.

"Hey gorgeous. How did you sleep?" asked Ashton while leading Zoe to the table. "Fine, thanks. I hope you did too. Did you do all that?" replied Zoe with her eyes wide open. On the table was everything you could dream of. Like a buffet in a five star hotel.

"I woke up early and wanted to surprise you." Ashton smiled. "It's perfect." replied Zoe, biting into her avocado toast. She was really enjoying it. Not only was breakfast made for her, but Zoe enjoyed being around Ashton.

"What's your plan for today?" asked Ashton, taking a sip of his coffee. "Mhh... today is my day off. So I don't have a plan." said Zoe and returned her attention to her food. "I have an idea, if you feel like it, of course. Today we'll shoot something for our album at my house. I want you to come." Ashton looked at Zoe expectantly. "Yeah... okay. What are you shooting?" asked Zoe, amused. "Cocktail chats. We're going to have some drinks, getting a little bit drunk and then we'll talk about the songs and what they mean. It'll be fun, trust me." "Is Grace coming too?" asked Zoe. It's just more fun with Grace. "You can't be without her?" laughed Ashton to himself. "I can be without Grace, but I don't want to be without her." replied Zoe flippantly to Ashton's silly question. Ashton made an impressed expression on his face. "Okay okay. Grace will be there." replied Ashton. Zoe's mouth formed into a smile. "You two are crazy." Ashton shook his head with a smile.

Ashton went home and Zoe had a minute to collect herself. She took a deep breath in and out. The conversation with Ashton was necessary, but Zoe still has the feeling that the two have not come further. They had been talking for a long time. But Zoe's gut feeling tells her otherwise. That doesn't seem to be the priority, because Zoe just got dressed up to go to Ashton.

She was wearing pink lipstick. Kiss-proof, of course. The last look in the mirror and off she went.

Zoe ignored all the red flags and thought only about the positive things. He is attentive and really cares about her. But is that enough to build up enough trust?

Zoe rang the bell at the garden gate. "Hey hey. It's me." said Zoe, looking at camera. "Come in." a voice replied through the speaker. Ashton immediately pulled Zoe into a hug. Ashton's smell hit her nose. It's like coming home.

"Hi!" said Zoe, taking off her jacket. Several bottles of alcohol were on the table. The guys had already started filming. And already had a good level. It was a very relaxed atmosphere. "Hey babe." said Zoe as she hugged Grace. "I'm glad you're here." Grace smiled. "Hey there. How are you?" asked Luke, pushing a drink into Zoe's hand. "Good. Uh... just the way I like it." replied Zoe, taking a sip. Luke winked and made himself another glass as well.

Zoe hadn't had such a good time in a long time. There was a lot of laughter and a lot of drinking. By the end, everyone was a little drunk. Calum had hiccups and Zoe could not pull herself together. She had to laugh so hard that she fell off her chair. "Watch out!" hiccupped Calum to himself as he helped Zoe up. Zoe cleared her throat. Last time she had seen Calum, he was really mean. What was the reason? Zoe was still a little angry with him, but she didn't feel like sorting it out today. She was having too much fun for that. "Grace!" cried Zoe. "Yes?" "Tomorrow I'm recording my song. It's ready. Will you come with me?" tried Zoe to say as quietly as possible. Which didn't quite work that way. "Yeah sure. It's so exciting. I'm so happy for you. Ahh!" replied Grace, falling around Zoe's neck. "Me too. It's so exciting." laughed Zoe.

The sun was setting and it was getting dark outside. "Bye Zoe. See you in a few days." said Michael as he was the last to leave the house. "Bye Mike. Get home safe!" said Zoe goodbye.

"You're recording your song tomorrow?" asked Ashton, putting his big hands around Zoe's waist. Zoe clasped her hands behind Ashton's head. "That's a surprise." Zoe smiled. "I'm curious, but I'll wait. So what are you and I going to do now?" asked Ashton with a dirty grin. "I have an idea."

Zoe led Ashton by the hand into his bedroom. Ashton bent over her, his lips touched her mouth. Zoe's tongue was as soft as everything else about her. She tasted like cherries - sweet, with a hint of tartness - and her nooks and crannies gradually rounded under Ashton's fingers and tongue. He leaned back to look at her. Slowly, she lifted her heavy lids, as if just waking from anesthesia. Zoe's lips were red and her hair disheveled. "Let me see how beautiful you are." Ashton captured her lips, her tongue, her kiss.

Ashton hooked his thumbs left and right under the hem of her panties and trailed the delicate lace down over her legs. He leaned over Zoe and kissed her softly on the mouth. Zoe's fingertips grazed his side, the effect of her touch making Ashton moan. Ashton laid on his side to pull the rubber over his cock. He got himself into position. The two were so close that each could feel the other's breathing on their lips. He ran his cock over her clit. "Do you want me?" asked Ashton. "Please." whimpered Zoe softly.

Slowly, with control, he slid into her, but he didn't stop until he was all the way inside Zoe. She was tight. Ashton gasped, expelled his breath. The way they were both connected, every part of his body touching every part of hers. Zoe wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled Ashton against her, her legs nestled around his waist. He began to move slowly, with small pauses between thrusts, making sure their bodies stayed pressed tightly together. It was so intense, the pleasure so fierce. He licked over the inside of her upper lip. Cherries. Zoe dug her fingernails into his shoulders. "Don't stop." moaned Zoe. "Never." He thrust harder and deeper, then again Ashton screwed into her with small applications. Ashton felt Zoe pulling him against her, her climax kicking his into gear. "Fuck!" screamed Ashton as he poured himself into Zoe.

They both breathed intermittently, one into the other's neck. "Good god, Zoe." Ashton lay down next to Zoe and rolled onto his back, still breathing heavily. Zoe snuggled against his shoulder. They both laid there, reveling in what had just gone on - the touch, how effortlessly their bodies nestled against each other.
