ASHLEY'S POV:

It has been a really busy week. Mitch and I have worked out the details of my trip to LA.I've been packing what seems like my whole apartment for a trip only a couple months long.

I've also been thinking a lot about what is going to happen when I get there. I don't want it to be awkward between me and Mitch. I mean of course this whole thing was sudden, but I love him to much to get pulled away from him. I'm leaving tomorrow at 4 AM for LA. It's a long flight but I'm readier than I'll ever be.

MITCH'S POV:

It's been hard to wait for Ashley's arrival these few days, but now I'm dreading it. I love her but I'm afraid that she doesn't love me as much as I love her. I truly hope I'm wrong.

TIME SKIP ✌️

It was almost time to go pick Ashley up at the airport. I was nervous and happy at the same time. I decided not to think about it that much and just busied myself around the house- messing with the guys or playing video games-and all was well until Jerome knocked on my door and said it was time to go.

I felt the butterflies in my stomach but I just breathed and went to the car with Jerome.

ASHLEY'S POV:

I was at LAX. I was nervous but happy to be here. I had spent 20 minutes trying to find Mitch and Jerome, texting them, even calling them.

"ASHLEY!!" I heads Jerome's voice yell from across the airport. I saw him waving at me and I ran over.

I first hugged Jerome, although immediately regretted it when I saw a look of jealousy flash on Mitch's face. I let go of Jerome and hugged Mitch. I hugged him hard- it was a "love hug". He hugged back with his strong arms. Right there was when i could tell that he wasn't lying about liking me.

We must've been hugging for awhile because I felt Jerome tapping me on the shoulder.

"Uhhhhh..... Guys?," he said. "I think we should get going,".

"Uh yeah. Just let me get my..." I said being cut off by Mitch.

"No Ash. I'll get your bags," he said.

While we were walking towards the exits I heard Jerome mumble "Ash? Where did he get that from?"

I ignored it and just looked at Mitch. He seemed nervous but I saw a small smile on his face. I don't know what came over me I just thought it would be better if I did what I did.

MITCH'S POV:

I have to say, I was shocked when Ashley grabbed my free hand. At first I pulled away because I didn't know what was happening, but seeing a hurt look on her face, I took her hand back and squeezed it.

I saw Jerome looking back and giving me weird looks but I didn't care. I finally had Ashley Mariee Surcombe, and she had me.

Lol shortie ✌️
