Ashton and I agreed that if we were gonna go out all night we would need some money, and since I said I wasn't coming home, nor did I want to confront my parents, we were going to sneak into my room and grab my debit card. Thanks to my parents wasn't full of cash, and was directly connected to their account.

It was nearly eleven thirty by the time we left the park, the dark sky was looming over us with only the moon as light. Once we came across my house we went through the side gate to the backyard, we had to climb up the tree that was next to my room.

We both stood up in front of the tree staring up at it like it was some kind of monster, in a way it was because it was so damn large. "Race you up?" Ashton grinned getting a head start jumping up onto the tree grabbing a branch to bring himself up.

"What the fuck Irwin?" I called up teasingly, I had started my way up and when I looked up Ashton's butt was literally right there in front of me. "Nice ass there Ashton." I giggled while pausing my movements so it wasn't right there.

"You know it." He said wiggling a bit, laughs falling from both of our lips while he did so.

In a few places were boards that my father had put up years before when I was little, most of them had fallen off, but the ones that were still there were useful.

He gripped my windowsill and I only hoped that I left it unlocked like usual. He gripped the window, sliding it open with ease, he pulled him self in and as he did so his muscles in his arm clenched as he shimmied his way in.

I grabbed onto the branch that was nearest to the windowsill and seen it was a bit of a stretch, Ashton would probably have to help me in. Of course he didn't need the help because he was freaking 500 feet tall. I looked up at him in despair and he cracked a knowing smile.

I put my arms up on the sill and he gripped them picking me up and sliding me in, we were doing this surprisingly very quiet, until I didn't pay attention to where my feet were going. I slipped bringing Ashton down with me to the ground creating a loud thump.

I didn't know what I found funny about this but I had to hide my giggles that were escaping my loud mouth. I shoved my face into Ashton's neck continuing to laugh at my failure, soon Ashton had to,put,his face into my hair because of his loud chuckles.

We were just sitting there gripping onto each other laughing, once we both died down the laughs I rolled off of Ashton sitting myself up crossed legged.

"Well that was fun." I said looking over my room to make sure I didn't leave anything I didn't want Ashton to see.

I had piles of dirty clothes lying around and my back pack was thrown on the ground near my desk. I stood up and went over to my bag, picking it up and looking through it for my wallet.

I turned around and Ashton wasn't on the ground where he was minutes before, I whipped around to my other side and there was Ashton smirking at me holding one of my bras with gummy bears all over it by the strap. It was casually hanging from his hand and I felt my face heat up before I snatched it from him.

"Cute bra there, Wood." He said snickering at my blush.

I walked over to my closet throwing it in there randomly, "Oh shut up," I mumbled going around my room picking up my clothes and dumping them in the closet.

Ashton jumped onto my bed, moving his hands behind his head. "C'mon gummy bears on a bra is adorable though." I rolled my eyes at his statement and heard foot steps making there way down the hall.

I flicked my eyes over to Ashton and brought up a finger to my mouth quieting him. My parents were quietly bickering over something, I looked over at Ashton, but he didn't seem to be paying attention. His eyes were staring up at my ceiling which had tons of posters, up there.

I was kind of glad Ashton didn't say anything about my parents. I acted as if I was doing something on my phone, but I was trying to listen in on my parents.

"We have to tell her eventually!" My father whisper shouted towards my mom, that's all I could really make out of what they were saying.

I wanted to know who they needed to tell something too, what it was, if it was me? My mind was racing with the endless possibilities of what it could be. The talk may have been lowered voices but it sounded pretty heated from what I heard. But then again it could seem bigger than it actually was, they were both lawyers..

I didn't notice but Ashton was snapping his fingers in front of my face, "Hmm?" I said mumbling looking up at him.

"Are you okay?" He said looking over my face, "You were out of it for a minute, it was starting to creep me out." Ashton chuckled, looking at my desk. There were few pictures scattered on the shelf above it, they were attached to pictures in frames.

He picked up one, it was wallet sized and I instantly recognizing it as the picture that was taken on my first birthday.

I was standing near a stool and my hair was tied up in one of those funny little pony tails that sat up right on top of my head, I had this big cheesy smile on my face with my same baby dimple popping out.

"Aw look at baby Ella," Ashton cooed, setting the picture back.

"I know I was an adorable baby," I said chuckling, and shutting off my laughter completely when I heard steps again, the clicking of my mothers heels.

Her bedroom door clicked shut and I was pretty sure, in the next twenty to thirty minutes we would be able to walk out the front door without being noticed.

"Hey, you don't mind waiting like half an hour before we leave? Then we can just walk out the front door with out falling out my window." He nodded, still staring at my pictures.

The ones on this shelf were the only ones I had of me through out my while room. On my ceiling was my band posters, ranging from The 1975 to Bring Me The Horizon. On my walls were drawings or paintings I had done throughout the years and some of my photography.

My room was pretty full of stuff, I didn't like staring at a blank wall, I felt the need to be surrounded by things.

I pulled out my sketch pad from one of my desk drawers and my pencils then I got up and sat on my bed leaving Ashton standing near my desk, he looked back at me before sitting and opening up my mac book pro laptop.

I didn't mind, there wasn't anything I needed to hide nor did I have a password. I didn't know what he was doing, but I had a perfect view of his side profile. I don't know if he knew what I was doing but I certainly did, I as I began to draw out his features roughly.

I feel like this chapter sucked, its more of a filler. But eh, there's some cute stuff between Ella and Ashton going on though. Its gonna play some kind of part with their relationship later.
