Promise Me? 5sos Ashton Irwin

Chapter Nineteen

*Ashtons POV*

I woke up Ariel was all ready gone. I sighed as memories from last night flooded through my brain. I don't know what was going on between me and Ariel even though I knew what I wanted to happen.

I got up and decided to take a shower to clear my head of my all thoughts. Why were things so confusing. What if she doesn't feel the same  and just wants to be friends? What if she only wants to kiss me when she's drunk?

I sighed as I stepped into the shower, letting the warm water hit my back, calming the thoughts in my mind. Once I was my hair and body I got dressed into some jeans and an all time low tee.

I decided to get my mind off of everything and go to a cafe that I saw down the road a few days ago. Also the fact that I had a hangover didn't help with anything.

I grabbed my keys and left, not bothering to see if the boys were up, and walked to my car. As I got closer to the cafe I had this weird feeling in my gut that I couldn't shake.

I sighed and continued to drive, deciding that it was probably because I was confused and hung over.

After a short 5 minute drive I got to the cafe. I parked my car and got out, immediately regretting even getting out of the hotel in the first place.

There, infront of the little cafe, was Ariel kissing a boy, but not just any boy, Louis Tomlinson.

My face immediately fell and I couldn't help but state at the situation. Not only was he kissing her, she was kissing back. My heart stopped as she pulled away, then looked right into my eyes.

Her eyes widened as I looked down and went back into my car wanting to get away from there as fast as I could.

I knew me and Ariel weren't a thing but it still upset me that her and Louis apparently had something going on and she didn't even tell me.

I frowned as I realized that I didn't know where to go. I didn't want to back to the hotel and face her just yet. I wanted to give myself time to brace myself for the conversation. For her to tell me what I all ready knew.

Ashton I really like you as a friend but that's it, I don't feel that way towards you.

I shook my head and drove around for a while not knowing where I we going.

*Ariels POV*

I turned towards Louis who was watching as Ashton drove away.

"Oh" he muttered "I see".

I nodded and looked down trying to figure out what to do. I know me and him weren't together, but that's not what mattered, what mattered is that he walked in on a situation that wasn't what it seemed.

"I'm sorry" Louis said nervously, pulling me from my thoughts.

"It's fine. I'll go talk to him" I said giving him a reassuring smile.

"I um... I hope we can still be friends" he said, still looking at the ground.

"Of course we can" I said as I pulled him into a hug.

He sighed and we said our goodbyes. I got in my car and drove fast to the hotel, hoping that he would be there. I got out of the car and took the elevator to the floor where our hotels were. I nervously tapped my phone and waited to get into my hotel room.

As soon as the elevator opened I rushed to my hotel room, unlocking the door, before going into the boy's room.

"Hey Ariel how'd it go" Calum asked.

"Wheres Ash" I replied, deciding to avoid his question until I knew where Ash was.

"He left and we haven't seen him since. Why what's wrong" Luke asked concerned once he realized the panic in my voice.

I sighed as I sat down "He saw something that shouldn't of happened" I muttered quietly.

I watched as the boys slowly nodded with confusion laced in there eyes. I sighed as I told them the story, starting with the party the night before.

"So... you didn't know that he was going to kiss you" Calum said slowly, once I had finished explaining.

"No honestly, I mean we haven't even talked since I first met him" I admitted "it was out of no where."

"Ok do you want to be with Ashton" Michael blurted out.

My cheek burned as I bit my lip trying to figure out what I wanted to say "I think I do... yea"

"Then when he comes back, tell him that" he replied like it was the easiest thing ever.

I nodded and tried to think of how I wanted to start the conversation in my head. My thoughts were interrupted when I felt something heavy on my lap, and all of a sudden arms engulfing me in a hug.

I laughed as I looked up and hugged Luke back.

"Ok now get off of me your ass is bony" I giggled slightly pushing him off of me.

He gasped and put a hurt expression on his face while clutching his heart "Girl you know you'd kill for buns like these"

All of us bursted into laughter,except for Luke, at his words, and before I knew it I was clutching my stomach with tears rolling down my cheeks.

"You guys are whores" Luke whined, causing us to laugh more.

"Oh I love you Lukey" I teased once I caught my breath, ruffling my fingers through the tall boys hair.

In a instant I was on the ground, with the tall blonde boy above me tickling me.

"Luke-- stop" I giggled trying to breathe.

"Not until you take it back" Luke demanded.

"Never" I shouted back.

Even though things have been weird with me and Ashton, with the whole feelings thing, I've really enjoyed my time in tour with the boys (1 month in 3 days).

Even though I'm pretty close with the boys, I would have to say I'm closest to Mikey, besides Ashton. He's all ways there when I need him, so are the other boys, but Mikey always gives the best advice, and he can always tell when Im sad.

I gasped for air as Luke continued to tickle me.

"Ok ok fine" I gasped.

He grinned as he got up and helped me off of the floor.

"I still think Mikey has the best buns" I teased, sending a cheeky smile to Luke.

"Honey of course I do is that even a question" Mikey said sassily.

"Ok ok but let's get this straight... I'm the hottest" Calum sneered.

"Sure you are buddy" I teased patting him on the shoulder.

"See this is why shes my bestfriend"Mikey said, slinging his arm around my shoulder, giving me a goofy grin.

"Well she still loves me" Calum pouted, with Luke pretending to sob on my shoulder.

"I love all you dorks" I giggled.

"Group hug" Calum screeched and we all laughed,  but hugged eachother.
