"Thank god we found this restaurant, I thought I was going to die," Mikey said holding his stomach. 

"You're such a drama queen, " Calum said rolling his eyes at his hunger stricken bandmate.

"I hope Little Tokyo serves good food," Ashton stated.

"Actually, this franchiese the number-"

"Luke, enough of your Japanese fun facts bullcrap. God you're such a dork," Michael said to his tall and hurt bandmate.

"I'm just trying to be helpful..." Luke said scoffing.

"Michael be nicer to Luke! You've been so mean to him already and the tour hasn't even started!" Ashton said. 

Ashton sighed heavily, brushing his bangs out of his face. 

"Okay," Michael said defeated. 

"Good boy," Ashton said smirking. 

"Welcome to Little Tokyo, how many are in your party?" A petite waitress asked the four goofy boys.

"Uh three-I mean four," Luke said shyly, putting his hand on the back of his neck. 

"Okay, come this way please," The waitress said smiling.

"Looks like Calum doesn't have to translate," Michael muttered, causing the other boys to snicker. 

"I hope you choke on sushi," Calum says coldly as they sit down. 

"'Kay thanks," Michael stated. 

Ashton continued to zone out as his bandmates order their drinks. 

"Excuse me?" A voice says. 

"Dude, Ash-it's your order," Calum says. 

Out of the corner of his eye, Ashton eyes a girl sitting alone at a table across from theres. Her features are very gentle and elegent, he notices her smooth, peach colored lips and her coarse hair that reached far past her shoulders. She looked just like a work of art to him, it was all too much for Ashton to take in, while he continuously studies her. 

"Can I have her?"  He absentmindedly mutters under his breath. 

"What?" The waitress asks. 

"Oh, uh sorry, i'll have a water," Ashton says giving a polite smile. 

Who knows how long he made the waitress wait. 

"What's wrong with you Ash? You keep staring over there," Luke says concerned about his bandmate. 

"Probably jetlag," Michael states. 

The other boys nod in agreement. 

Ash does nothing but watch the anonymous girl, even after their drinks come through. 

He watches as she daintily picks up her chopsticks and carefully bits into her food. He though it was cute. 

Without warning, not looking, she accidently elbows her glass of-well, Ashton didn't know what it was-Japanese soda, anyway, in a flash, it glides off the table and onto the floor. 

Ashton suddenly emerges from the boy's booth and swiftly goes to her table.

"let me get that for you," Ashton mutters as he picks up her glass off the floor and sets it back down, wiping it with his shirt.

The girl just stares at Ashton curiously. 

"What is he doing? Has he lost it?" He hears is bandmates quietly utter from their booth.

He didn't care, however. 

"Uh hi, i'm Ashton," He says awkwardly playing with the nape of his neck. 

Silence ensues for what seemed like an eternity to Ashton. 

'H-h-hi" A petite voice sqeaks out of the shy girl. 

Ashton's eyes widen. 

He was surprised that she was even communicating with him, let alone looking at him. 

She quietly stares at her plate, twirling her hairs ends while Ashton observes. 

"Would you-" 

"Excuse us," A familar voice calls out pulling Ashton with them, leaving the girl with a puzzled look plastered on her pale face. 

"Care to explain what you're doing man?" Calum says as he sits himself down back in the booth.

"Yeah, that was kind of weird dude, talking to a stranger, you probably scared her," Michael states. 

"Well I did," Ashton mutters. 

"Ash you're crazy; you cannot talk to her, she probably doesn't even know English."

"Well looks like i'm learning Japanese on this tour."
