Chapter Twelve

~Previous ~

I'm falling for all of the aspects and all the parts that she has grown to hate.

~Present ~

After awhile Shay and I took a short nap until about five in the evening. The rest if the boys were hanging out and just talking out in the living room.

Shay was still asleep across the bed, curled up in a ball, her hair tangled, and messy, She was cute when she sleeps, it's the only time I could see her as happy as she was. She didn't have to worry about anything. She has been getting a lot more sleep than usual. She usually stays up late checking her phone. Since I've been staying in the same bed as her she's been sleeping. I just wish she knew how much I care for her, she's been through so much that she doesn't deserve. I have as well but it doesn't bother me that much anymore like it used to.

I walk out I my bedroom and shut the door quietly, joking the boys on the couch.

"Look whose finally up!" Luke jokes.

"Yeah we got tired." I say.

"You guys slept for like three hours. We've all been up since two." Luke explains.

"Did you guys have anything planned? It's Saturday night and we need something to do besides sit here all night. I was think we could go out tonight. With Sky and Grace." I suggest.

"Well I'll text them and see if they have anything planned." Luke takes his phone out of his pocket to text them.

"Are you guys like a thing? It's been almost a year it's time to take it to the next level." Calum nudges him.

"Look we were drunk that night, it was a mistake to kiss her." He says never looking up from his phone in his lap.

"Oh come on, you talk about how much you like her and want to be with her all the time. I agree with cal, it's time to at least go on a date with her, mate. " Michael adds.

"Fine, I'll ask her later tonight." He smirks and puts his phone back in his pocket.

We all kept thinking if ideas of things to do, all we had was to just get drunk and go to the lake.

Shay comes out of the room sleepy and rubs her eyes as she sits close to me on the couch.

"did you sleep good, beautiful?" I chuckle and place my arm around her. She nods and places her head on my shoulder. "So I was thinking, maybe we could go out, all of us, and go to the lake one last time before it gets too cold." I inform her of our pans.

"Sounds good. But I don't have a bathing suit." She says.

"You don't need one, we don't either." I laugh.

"Don't be a party pooper." Michael pouts from his spot in the couch.

"Fine, I'll go." She gives in. We all smile and cheer.

"Grace and Skyler are on their way over." Luke announces. We all nod and Shay leaves to get ready.

Shay

I go into my old bag and grab some eye liner and mascara and apply it in the bathroom. I'm not much in wearing make up but tonight seems like a good night to let loose and have fun for Ashton's sake. I haven't told him yet but I'm starting to miss my mom and dad. I don't think they'd ever let me back in their life after I just got up and left. I just wrote them a letter saying I didn't want to stay and that I was leaving to somewhere new. I didn't tell them I was going to New York because I didn't even knew I was going to. When I first came to New York from California I had just met Cameron walking down the street one day. And after that I couldn't stop thinking about him. At first I thought he was charming and cute. And we hung out a lot and texted 24/7.

I shake my head from my thoughts and walk back to Ashton's room to put on my red plaid shirt over my nirvana shirt.

I join the boys back in the living room. They were sitting and talking about the plans for tonight. And I just couldn't wait for this night to get going.

"I'm home bitches!" Skyler shouts from the front door. I laugh a little too hard and go up and hug her.

"Hey cutie! You look amazing!" Grace compliments me. I shrug and give her a quick hug as well.

"Come on, what are you guys doing? The day is wasting let's go!" Skyler yells to the boys, still sitting down.

"She had a few drinks before we left." Grace explains. All of the boys stand up and walk to the door.

"I'll take the rest of the boys in my car and you and ash can take his truck." Grace says to me as we walk out of the door. Ashton smiles at me and he warms his arm around my waist as we walk to his truck.

"Tonight's going to be awesome!" He says as we enter his truck.

"I agree," I giggled.

"But one thing before we go.." He says. His eyes were flowing like usual even if with the very dim lights in his truck.

"What's that?" I asked.

He grabs me and pulls me close to him, pushing his lips hard into mine. Then letting for after a few moments.

"Now we can go." He smirks and takes off and follows Grace to the lake.
