The credits started rolling as you just finished watching Letters to Juliet. Inspired by the theme of the movie, you wrote a letter to Juliet. Talking about your past heartaches and cute little stories. Since you weren't in Italy you left the letter in a place you knew was safe.

Beyond anyone's knowledge, Ashton saw you hiding the letter. Curious, he went to the exact spot where you hid the letter and found it. Placing it in his pocket to fulfill his little scheme.

"Ashton? What is that?" Luke asked.

"Nothing." Ashton smiled to himself.

"Another love letter!" Calum teased.

Ashton rolled his eyes and went to his room. Locking the door and curling himself in bed. He took the letter and read it. Discovering your secrets and getting to know a bit about you. Upon finding out that you wrote the letter because of the movie. He quickly writes back and waited the whole day to come back to that special place.

The next day...

You wanted to go back to the place where you left the letter. Upon reaching the place you saw a shadow of a man wearing a hoodie probably taking a peek on your letter. Anger raged inside of you and you ran after him.

"Hey you!" you called out.

But he ran away fast as he could, you fell on your knees and tiringly made your way back, you found your letter being replaced by another one. You took it home and read it. It was a reply to the letter you wrote. Wondering who the writer was, you wrote again bringing it back to the same place.

The process continued as a few months went by, you have gotten to know your great adviser who knows everything about you and you did know him as well except for his name. You really wanted to but thought that it might be a rude thing to ask, so you just let it go lose.

It was already December and you did the usual, going to that very particular place.You took the letter and went home but this was not the letter you wanted to read.

Summer,

I really enjoyed getting to know you in this old fashioned way. I love the stories you write to me. I want to thank you for getting to know a total stranger and for keeping me company through everything. I learned a lot from you. Thank you for letting me be a part of your world. I want you to know that this may be my last letter. I'm leaving and I don't know if I can keep up with this. Believe me I really wanted to get to know you better.

Tears streamed down your cheeks, as you held the paper to your chest. Wiping away your tears you didn't write another letter but had something else in mind.

The next day, you waited the whole day to come to the spot where you left the letter. It was 5pm and still no one came. You still waited until you fell asleep. Footsteps came to you and disturbed your deep snooze.

"Summer?" A guy's voice said.

You got up and saw a boy wearing another hoodie, who was tall and had glasses. Looking at him confused you didn't say a word.

"You are Summer, right?" he asked.

"Yes."

"I am Ashton. I wrote the letters that you were answering." he said and let out a hand.

"Nice to finally meet you and to finally know your name." you smiled.

"Yeah... it sure does. Summer, can I ask you something?"

"Of course Ashton!" you said.

"You can call me Ash," he said looking at the ground.

"Okay, well what is it then Ash?"

"I know this is the first time we met since the letter thing but the truth is I am truly, madly, crazy, deeply in love with you and I wanted to know if you would be my girlfriend" he said sounding nervous.

You smiled and stood up.

"I feel the same way"

"I know, we just met and- wait? You feel the same way?"

You giggled and nodded. Out of excitement he grabbed you by your waist and kissed you. This was the start of your long and happy love story!
