Luke's P.O.V.
The three of us sat in awkward silence; uncomfortable looks being exchanged between Calum and myself. Aoife stared down at her feet, tapping away an unknown rhythm. Every now and then she'd glance up, but look away again when our eyes locked. Whatever Ashton's mood was about, you could tell it was having an affect on her.
"Well this isn't awkward." Calum laughed nervously, trying to lighten the atmosphere.
I noticed Aoife giggling along with him. She was so cute.
"Let's just rehearse by ourselves, it'll pass the time." I suggested.
"Fine. I miss you?" Calum asked, picking up his bass guitar.
I nodded, strumming my acoustic once to make sure that it was tuned properly.
"Wait-" Aoife spoke up, grinning widely "-you guys like Blink 182?"
"Are you kidding? We fucking love them!" Calum half yelled in excitement.
"Mind your language in front of the lady." I teased, which just caused him to chuckle and send a wink Aoife's way. I turned my attention back to her "do you like them as well?"
"Hell yeah!" Her eyes lit up as she smiled. God, she was stunning.
"Well then, this one's dedicated to you." She blushed furiously and I bit my lip, fighting the urge to smirk.
We began singing and I closed my eyes as I let the music overtake me.
Hello there, the angel from my nightmare
The shadow in the background of the morgue
The unsuspecting victim of darkness in the valley
We can live like Jack and Sally if we want
Where you can always find me
We'll have Halloween on Christmas
And in the night we'll wish this never ends
We'll wish this never ends
I miss you, I miss you
I miss you, I miss you
Where are you and I'm so sorry
I cannot sleep I cannot dream tonight
I need somebody and always
This sick strange darkness
Comes creeping on so haunting every time
And as I stared I counted
Webs from all the spiders
Catching things and eating their insides
Like indecision to call you
and hear your voice of treason
Will you come home and stop this pain tonight
Stop this pain tonight
Don't waste your time on me you're already
The voice inside my head (I miss you, I miss you)
Don't waste your time on me you're already
The voice inside my head (I miss you, I miss you)
I miss you, I miss you
I opened up my eyes to see one very happy girl clapping like she'd just watched the greatest thing ever. I have to admit I felt quite flattered.
"That was awesome! Oh my gosh, wow." She looked at both of us in awe, causing a tiny blush to rise from my neck, slowing creeping onto my cheeks.
"Thanks darling." Calum replied flirtatiously. I nudged his elbow roughly to signal him to stop, but it only spurred him on more. "Has anyone ever told you you're insanely beautiful?"
Aoife's P.O.V.
Calum's random question caught me completely off guard. Sure, I was having a really fun time with these lads, but I didn't realise the banter was going to turn into flirting. I felt kind of guilty for even being here with them, when I should be making sure my best friend's alright.
Has anyone ever told you you're insanely beautiful? I played the question over and over in my mind. I searched my memory and could only come up with one name: Ashton.
Ashton Ashton Ashton "I don't really get compliments much." I shrugged.
"That's ridiculous. You should get them all the time, princess." His continuous smirking was making me feel really awkward now.
"Dude, stop. You're making her uncomfortable." Luke practically hissed. I'd only just noticed how pissed off he looked.
"No, no, it's fine." I reassured them. It wasn't fine, but hey ho.
Another round of silence ensued. I shuffled my feet and glanced around Ashton's cluttered garage. We'd only just tidied it together last week and it was already a mess. He told me it would take five minutes max but we ended up spending the whole day cleaning. We sorted things into boxes and put them into three piles; Keep, Throw and Attic. One box in particular was really heavy and when I tried to lift it I dropped it on my foot. Ashton bandaged up the cut for me and ordered pizza to make me feel better. I smiled at the memory. Then realisation hit me like a ton of bricks. I shouldn't be here. I should be with Ash right now, making him feel better.
I stood up abruptly, "I'm gonna go find Ashton." I stated.
"But Michael's gone to find him." Calum replied.
"I know that, but I am too." I said firmly, making my way towards the garage door.
"Fine, we'll come with you." Luke sighed, pulling a groaning Calum off his stool.
It would've been rude to refuse their help. Anyway, three pairs of eyes and ears are better than just one, right?
