All My Secrets. >> Ashton Irwin

Chapter 5.

Amelia's POV:

I rolled over in my bed and yawned before opening up my eyes. I looked at my clock as it read 1:37 PM. Wow. I slept in. It was nice though. I got up and out of my bed. I did a few stretches and made my way to door.

Walking out of my bedroom I notice Lyric's door is still shut, indicating to me that she is still asleep.

I made my way downstairs, creeping my way slowly into the kitchen. On the table was a little note that read:

Peach, good morning! Please get the mail and bring it into the dining room. After that help yourself to whatever you and your friend would like! .xoxo

-TT

I smiled and went towards the front door. I was barefoot as I walked outside, but I didn't mind. My hair on the other hand was something else. It was a curly mess. My grey sweatpants had a bleach stain on them the size of a softball, and my tank top was a dull blue color.

I made my way towards the mail box, trying not to step on pebbles or sharp rocks before getting to my destination.

Once I got there, I opened up the mailbox. It was completely packed. I started to get all the mail and the two little packages as well. I hope to god I don't drop them.

To the right of me, I heard a loud thud, which then made me drop all the mail from being startled so quickly.

"Shit." I muttered under my breath as I bent down to collect everything I've dropped.

"Hey, I didn't mean to scare you, haha sorry about that.." A male with an Australian accent said as he helped me pick up all the mail. Oh god. It's the boy from last night.

"It's okay don't worry about it." I said before making eye contact with the boy.

He looked so oddly familiar. He had fire truck red hair, and grayish-green eyes. Weird. I swear I've seen him before, and no, not from my window either. This boy was different. He was built different, and he held himself differently than the other one did. Is there more of them?

"You don't live here do you?" The boy asked as he pointed to my aunts house, and I shrugged my shoulders.

"Well, my mother basically shipped my best friend and I here last night. So technically, yes. This is my home now." I responded before taking the mail from his hands.

"Thank you." I said as I turned on my heel to go back inside.

"Hey wait! I didn't catch your name?" The boy said as he followed me slowly up the long driveway.

"That's because I didn't give you one." I responded to his words, as I stood my ground. Why are boys so dumb? He was sweet and all, but really?

"I'm Michael." The taller boy put out his hand to shake mine. I glanced down at his hand and then to the mail that was cluttered in my arms.

"Right, sorry." Michael said as he took his hand and ran it through his hair.

"Amèlia." I responded and gave him a small smile. Okay Mia, be nice. Not every body is a dick bag. I keel trying to tell myself that, but I never seem to believe it.

"It's nice to meet you, Amèlia. Maybe I'll see you around-"
He was cut off by some blonde shouting at him from next door. Another accent. Guess we live next door to Australians.

"Michael! Bro come on we're about to start practice!"

Michael rolled his eyes and took a deep breath.

"We weren't even suppose to practice today, but when Luke calls, that's my que to leave I guess. See you around, Amèlia!" Michael stated and waved at me as he turned on his heel to head back to the house he came from.

Odd. I thought to myself. Who's a Michael that has an Australian accent, and has fire truck red hair? I couldn't quite put my finger on it. So I decided to just brush it off. Oh well. Like I said, boys are dumb. I didn't even want to speak to him to begin with.

I finished my way up the driveway and made my way inside.

I went back into the kitchen and see Lyric sitting there eating a bowl of cereal while listening to the same band she constantly listens to. Does she ever listen to anything else?

I put the mail on the dining room table and walk back to the breakfast bar.

"Who was that boy you were talking to?" She asked while taking the last bite of her cereal.

"His name is Michael." I responded while getting a cup of orange juice.

"Haha, very funny. Did he have an Australian accent too?" She said sarcastically before drinking the milk from her bowl.

"Umm. Actually yeah? How did you know that?" I asked and she spit her milk everywhere.

"WAIT WHAT?!" She started to scream as her face became pure with excitement.

"Lyric! Now you have to clean all that up!!" I yelled and grabbed the paper towels.

"I don't care! I will in a second!! Was that the only boy you met?!" She kept freaking out with excitement and I was just so confused. She's never acted THIS way about a boy. Jeez.

"No there was some blonde boy who was calling Michael back over for band practice, but that was it. Why are you acting like this?" I gave her a dirty look as I roll my eyes. I grabbed a granola bar from the cabinet and sat at the breakfast bar. She looked like she was going to pass out.

After moment of silence, and me looking at her like we was nuts, my blonde best friend finally spoke.

"Amèlia. That is the boys from 5 Seconds of Summer." She said, her mouth gaping.

"Haha, no it's not." I say as I got up from the chair. I met one boy, and saw another. Tell me how that was even possible? It's just a crazy coincidence.

"Mia. Michael has red hair. Luke is blonde, and did you hear me last night when I said that boy in the window looked like Ashton Irwin?! Not to mention the Aussie accents?!" She screeched and I shook my head.

"No I didn't. I try to block you out sometimes. Besides, anybody can have an Aussie accent, Lyric." I laughed and threw the paper towels at her. "Now clean that up!"

"MIA. LISTEN!! We're living next door to 5 Seconds of Summer!" She screamed once more before starting to clean up her spilled milk while dancing.

"That means my husband is only a couple hundred feet away from me now!!" She continues yelling about the boys but I was a bit too shocked to say anything. I just nodded my head.

That's pretty cool. I admit I'm not CRAZY like Lyric is about the band but I'm definitely a fan of their music. Who knew coming to live in Cali with my aunt would land us living right next to 5SOS.

I then went back up to my bedroom, pulling out my laptop. I looked up 'Michael from 5SOS'. There he was. I felt so weird knowing that I just met a boy that girls would die to meet.

What if Ashton was the one yelled at me through the window last night? I wouldn't dare tell Lyric because she'd say something like, 'oh my gosh Mia! Its fate! Your hubby was talking to you!' Or something like that. I giggled at the thought and shut my laptop.

I went on my phone for a few hours before it actually hit me like a truck.

Lyric and I lived right next door to the biggest band on earth.
