*Ashtons POV*

As soon as I woke up memorys flood through my mind about last night. All the truths and all the dares.

Holy shit I kiss Ariel.

I was trying to calm down when I realized that the hotel was quiet.

I walked into the connected hotel room where Michael was playing on his phone.

"Hey everyone else went shopping so it's just me and you...whats wrong" Mikey said as he realised my worried expression.

I walked over to the bed and ran my hands through my hair.

"I kissed Ariel last night" I said.

"Yea....?" Mikey dragged.

"Mikey I think I like her" I whispered.

"What do you mean" Mikey asked sitting up.

"Well I don't know it might just be because of the kiss" I replied.

"Mate... if you do like her... which is ok if you do... just figure it out beforr you tell anyone else." Mikey said.

"All right" I sighed.

If i do like her what would happen if I told her? Would she be all weird towards me? Does she like zayn? Did she enjoy the kiss last night with zayn.

*Ariel's POV*

I was shopping with Zayn because all of the other guys ditched us.

"About the kiss last night" Zayn said.

"Yea?"

"I don't feel that way towards you just to clear things up. I mean your pretty and all but your just not my type love. Louis on the other hand might be another story" he answered.

"What do you mean by that" I asked.

"Well this morning he was talking about how he thinks your pretty and how he was going to ask you for your number last night" he said giggling.

"Oh?" I replied smiling.

All I could think about was the kiss with Ashton last night. I knew that he didn't feel that way about him and I don't even know how I feel towards him. I don't like him... do i? Whatever it wouldnt matter he doesn't like me that way.

"Ariel" Zayn said snapping me out of my thoughts. "What are you thinking about" he asked.

"The party" I admitted.

"What about it" he questioned.

"Nothing just of how much we all drank last night" I lied laughing.

"Oh yea last night was fun" Zayn said laughing.

"Ariel can I talk to you" Louis said from behind us.

"Sure" I said giving him a smile.

I followed him to a bench and we sat down. He kept on playing with his fingers looking down at them nervously.  He began to run his finger through his hair. I grabbed his wrist when I saw how nervous he was.

"Louis whatever it is don't be afraid to tell me" I said while giving him and encouraging smile.

"I don't know if something is going on between you and Ashton. But.... I happen to think your really pretty and fun and I want a to see if maybe sometime you and I can go get a cup of coffee or something. If not it's all right" Louis said nervously.

"Louis... I think that would be lovely" I replied as he let out a breath of relief.

I grabbed his phone and put my number in it. He smiled to me as I gave him my phone to do the same.

On the ride to the hotel I couldn't stop think about what Louis said and how I kissed Ashton. The kiss with Ashton as probably jsut a dare since he said he had a crush on somebody else. But I couldn't figure out if it was just a dare for me.

When we walked into the hotel we said goodbye to the one direction boys. Before they left they all have me their numbers and told me to text them.

When we got to the hotel room Ashton was gone and Calum and Luke went to go sleep some more.

"Ariel I need to talk to you" Mikey said.

"All right" i said. He then took my hand and led me to the empty kitchen.

"How do you feel about Ashton." Mikey blurted out.

"Honestly I don't know. He's always been my favorite out of you guys, no offense. I've been trying to figure out all morning if the kiss was just a dare for me. Then Louis asked me if I wanted to go get coffee sometime. I'm just confused." I admitted.

"Well for the record I think both of them like you. I don't know for sure. But you should figure out your feelings before you do something with either of them" he said.

"Thanks Mikey" I said giving the boy a hug.

*Ashtons POV*

I decided to go out to get my mind off of everything that happened. I didn't know my feelings for Ariel or her feelings for me. I don't even know if she remembers what happened last night. The more I thought about it the more my feelings began more clear. I have a crush on Ariel Rose. I have no idea what to to or if I should tell her.

My thoughts were interrupted by my phone beeping.

Have you figured out your feelings yet?-Mikey

I think I did. I think I like her.- Ash

We'll are you going to tell her?-Mikey

I honestly don't know. What if she doesn't like me back? What if it becomes awkward between us?-Ash

Ash you know she's not that type of girl. Ariels really understanding. Just to let you know though Louis all ready asked her out for coffee. So if you are going to tell her id make it quick.-Mikey

All right I'll tell her when I get back. Thanks Mikey.-Ash.

We'll I guess I have to tell her now. I pulled out my phone and sent her a text.

Hey Ariel I really need to talk to you can you meet me at the park by the hotel.-Ash

Yea I have to talk to you too. I'll be there in ten.-Ariel

I put my phone in my pocket and got back into my car. I wasn't sure how I was going to tell her but I guess I have to now. I tried to come up with a plan while I made my way to the park.

After a short 5 minute drive I arrived at the park. I got out of my car and searched for her with my eyes. I found her sitting on a bench with a nervous look on her face. She looked so cute sitting there.

Her face met mine and she gave me a smile as I made my way to her. I sat down and tried to think of what i wanted to say.

"This is about last night isn't it?" She asked breaking the silence.

"Yea actually it is. What do you think about it" i said.

I watched as she played with her fingers nervously as she tried to think of what to say. She's so cute when she does that.

"Well I all ready talked to Zayn about the kiss me and him shared. We both agreed that were not eachothers type and to be friends. Then Louis talked to me and said that he don't know If something is going on between me and you but if not if me and him could go get coffee sometime" She said shyly.

"And what did you say" I asked trying to hide my nervousness.

"I said that would be nice." She admitted.

"Well I actually wanted to talk about the kiss we shared." I said.

"Ok I just want to say that we both were drunk and I totally get it if you don't feel that way towards me. I don't want it to get aw-" she rambled.

"I think I like you" I said cutting her off.

Great.
