My Dark Past

Chapter 5 Secrets Told

   The Next day

I over heard Luke talking to Ben and Jack In the living room. "ok guys tell me right now why dads in jail and why Ashley won't tell me?!?" oh no this is bad I wouldn't tell him and now Ben and Jack are gonna tell him "ok it's kinda a long story" "I have time!" "um well dad kinda raped her and we called the police and we found out he's been rapping  her since you left and she was to scared to tell anybody but that night I heard a scream from her room and well I saw him hurting her I had to get Ben to hold dad down so I could calm Ashley down and call the police and now his in jail." "oh my god  I can't believe this! poor Ashley that's why she hasn't acted the same" "yeah" "I have to talk to her"  "ok well good luck and she very sensitive about the subject so be careful what you say you know" "yeah ok" I quickly snuck downstairs so they didn't know I was eavesdropping not even to minutes later Luke was knocking on the door. "come in" "Ashley we need to talk" "ok about what?" Try to sound like I knew nothing "Ben & Jack told me everything about dad" that's when I broke down in to tears Luke just held me and let me cry and trying to comfort me but I just cried harder.           

        *2 hours later Luke's Pov*

Ashley fell asleep in my arms crying I wish I would have know. why didn't anybody call? I would have flew out in a heartbeat if I knew this was happening. I've never seen Ashley so vulnerable . I hate my dad for doing this to her why would he do this?!?!! I know what I have to do I'm gonna call the boys maybe we can take Ashley with us  on our next tour.  I decided to leave Ashley alone to sleep so I went upstairs and called the boys.

                            30 minutes later

All the boys showed up and I think I lost my hearing for a second I could barely think with the boys yelling in my ears "what's wrong with Ashley?!" "is everything okay?" "what happened!?" "Shut up!" I finally got the boys quite and I told them everything I found out and what happened by the end of the story we were all in tears.

         15 minutes later Ashley Pov

I woke up & Luke wasn't there anymore so I went into my bathroom and cleaned up because I looked like a truck ran over me 10 times. I was wreaked after I cleaned my face I went upstairs and I heard the boys talking wait are they talking about me?

"I just don't know what to do I hate  my dad for doing this I hate him" "I know Luke we all hate him but I'm worried about Ashley we can't change what he did but we have to find out how Ashley is feeling" "yeah your right um Ashton will you go check on Ashley please" "yeah of course" I went back downstairs so I didn't look like I was eavesdropping. I heard ash knock on the door "come in!" "hey ashy are you okay? and how long have you been awake Luke said you were sleeping"

"I've been up for 5 minutes and yeah I'm fine I guess I can't believe Luke told you" "if he didn't he probably would have murdered someone" "yeah true" "Ashley? what are those scars on your arm?" I froze "um what?" "Ashley you heard me what are those scars from?" "it's kinda a long story" he sat sown beside me on my bed "I got time babe" he said smiling at me. "ok well..."  about an hour later

"So that's it now you know" "Oh my God" "I know but the girls helped me through it and it's been about two months I'm over it now I already promised them I would stop and I did, well now you know my dark secret i did  use to self harm yes but it's in the past I'm better now." "well I'm glad your better and I'm so glad you stopped but you know you can tell me anything right? I'm always here for you babe so if you ever feel like your gonna hurt yourself please talk to me" "ok ash I will" "I know you already promised the girls but can you promise me that you'll never do it again it will make me feel better please promise me" "Ashton I promise I will never do it again" he smiled at me and the he started to kiss me gently then he started kissing my wrist "Ashton what are you doing?" he looked at me with a puppy dog face "kissing the scars away" "Ashton there scars for a reason there gonna be there forever" "I know but I can try" he said smiling some how we both ended up laughing when Ashton got done kissing my wrist I kissed him on the lips the kiss was long and meaningful. later I found out Ashton had scars to he  told me his story but he stoped to for the fans he's so sweet. "thank you ash for everything I love you" Oh my God did I just say that we've never said I love you what if he doesn't say it back maybe he didn't hear "no problem babe I would do anything for you and I love you to" YESSSSS we both stared at each other for awhile just grinning like idiots " Ashton I'm tired so I think I'm gonna go to bed" "ok goodnight baby" "goodnight ash & Ashton please don't tell the boys" " ok your secret safe with me babe" "thanks" he kissed my forehead and left I soon drifted into darkness.

                       Ashtons Pov

I can't believe everything Ashley's been through I feel so bad for her I hate seeing her like this I love her so much. I told the boys I was heading home and goodnight Cal and Michael decided that be best for them to. I cried myself to sleep that night thinking of what poor Ashley's been through.
