- Ashton's point of view - 

"Tilly?" I asked as all I heard was breathing down the line.

"Y-yeah" She stuttered out.

"Are you, are you crying?" I laid on to my right side in the bunk pulling my duvet over me.

"It's my hay fever, i've told you this" She tried to laughed, which then caused me to laugh. "So how you been?"

"Yeah hay fever I understand, and brilliant yeah tour's been good, American shows have a great atmosphere, brilliant people too, can't believe it's six weeks since i've been away"

"Me neither, six weeks too many, I miss you a lot"

"I miss you too babe, I miss your cuddles and cooking the most" I laughed.

"My cuddles and cooking miss you too" Tilly seemed to lose all anticipation in her voice, in which worried me. "Ashton"

"Yeah, what's wrong"

"I'm scared"

"Scared of what babe? Are you okay?"

"I'm fine, it's just, you said it yourself, you're saying everything has changed"

"You listen to our interviews?"

"Of course I do"

"By everything has changed I meant by the band and the fame"

"It might not just mean the band and the fame Ashton, think about it, it could be us"

"Tilly..." 

"I'm afraid that I might be losing you"

"You're not loosing me Tilly, this journey, this is making us stronger than any other relationship ever, long distance relationships test everything about one and we're doing great Tils, just great"

"Positive?" She croaked, knowing she was going to spill into tears again any minute now.

"A hundred percent babe, anyway it's nearly 2am here and I have a busy day tomorrow so I best be going to sleep"

"Yeah, I better be getting ready for work anyway"

"Have a nice day, I love you Tilly"

"Yeah, I love you too Ashton, bye"

"Bye" I whispered, then hearing the beep knowing she had ended the call. 

I sighed and placed my phone under my pillow and just stared at the bunk bed ceiling.

"You did good mate, you both are doing good" Calum spoke as he tapped the side of the bed, hearing him climb into the bunk above me and shut his curtains.
