Amnesia || Ashton Irwin

Daddy's Here || Chapter 5

Ashton's POV

"Hi! I'm Amelia! It's nice to meet you." She said, holding out her hand. I stood still like a rock.

"Uhhh... I-I'm a-ashton." I stuttered, grabbing her hand. When our hands made contact, I felt the sparks there. In fact, they were bigger than sparks. They were fireworks. "Excuse me for a minute." I say, completely ignoring her friend, making my way to the bathroom. I got in there, turning on the water from the tap. I splash some water on my face and hold onto the sink and breath heavily. "Ok. This is happening. This is real." I whispered to myself. I can't believe it's her. Just as I calm down, Luke walks in.

"Mate, what the hell was that all about?" He says, looking kind of ticked of.

"N-nothing. Just left a little sick that's all." I lied. I looked up at myself in the mirror, fixing my hair then wiping my face with paper towel.

"Well you walked away and ignored Katie. Next time try not to be rude." Luke sassed me.

"Im sorry." I apologized. I stood up straight, before looking at myself one last time, before walking out. Let's go win her over.

I walk back to our table with Luke following behind me. I walk up to Katie. "I'm sorry about that. I just felt a little sick for a second." I said.

"It's ok, let's try this again then." She giggled, standing up. "I'm Katie." She held out her hand. I grabbed it.

"Ashton." I smile. Nothing compared to Amelia. We take our seat at the table.

During the whole dinner, I couldn't pay attention to anything. I barely ate when the food came, I didn't talk much, all I could focus on was Amelia. I figured I should make some conversation with her at least. "So, Amelia. Tell me about yourself a bit." I said to her. She looked at me and smiled.

"Well I'm in year 12, I work at American Apparel and I live alone." She said.

"What else? Any hobbies?" I asked her. I wanna know everything about her.

"Umm.. I do write songs and play piano." She said, shrugging her shoulders. She's cute when she does that.

"Do you sing?" I bet she does.

"Umm a little yes, but I don't think I'm very good." She spoke.

"I bet you're amazing." I said. She blushed and looked at her lap. Just as I'm about to ask her more, Luke speaks up.

"Alright. The check is paid for, so let's head out!" He said. Everyone got up and made their way out of the restaurant, piling into the the SUV. I was in the back in between Michael and Calum, and Luke was in between Amelia and Katie.

We arrived in front of Luke's house and we all got out. I see Amelia walk up to Luke, hugging him. "Goodnight Luke." She said. They bid their goodbyes and they went their own ways. Amelia and Katie were walking away. I decided to catch up with them. "Hey Amelia!" I shouted before running over to her.

"Oh. Hey Ashton." She said, a smile on her face .

"I was wondering. Do you maybe wanna go grab some Starbucks sometime?" I asked, my fingers crossed in my pocket.

"I'd love to!" She said, smiling. "Give me your phone." I handed her my phone and she put in her number.

"Thanks. I'll see ya around." I said, before running off. I think I have a shot.

Amelia's POV

I make my way up my front porch and open the door. Katie must be already inside. I close the door and sigh, throwing my clutch on the table and falling onto the couch. "Did someone just get Ashton Irwin's number?" Katie asked me, walking in the living room with two mugs in her hand. She hands one to me and she sits on the love seat.
