Ashley's POV

"I-I... I can't" I say and they frown at me.

"Ashley' you don't have to make your decision now" Axel said and Ace nods in agreement.

"This is your family, and we will love you no matter what" Jax said.

If they only knew.

"Ace, Austin, carry Asher to his room" Phoenix ordered interrupting the conversation and they both nod.

"Ashley, you follow me" He turned to me and I swallowed hard.

He walks in a direction of the house which I have never been before and I follow close behind.

He opens a door and walks in what looks like his office. "Take a seat" He said and I say across from him.

Please don't let me be in trouble!

"Are you happy here?" He asked.

"Yeah, I love spending time with my brothers" I say honestly.

"How would you like to permanently move in with us?" He asked and I froze.

"As in leave my mom and sister?" I ask, feeling overwhelmed.

"Yes. I mean you hardly see them anyway" He said and I didn't reply. "It's your choice Ashley" He said seeing my panic expression.

"B-but I wouldn't be able to see them" I said and he shaked his head.

"You can see them any time you want" He said and I sighed in relief. "It's just that Karen wants to change your room into the baby's room" He continued.

"Wh-what?"

All of this was her idea?

"Ashley, are you alright?" He asked.

"Do you even want me to stay?" I ask, curious.

"Of course I do. Not everyday someone finds out they have a long lost dau... Ashley" He said.

Was he going to say daughter?

"What is a long lost Ashley" I laughed.

"Uh... You" He said with a almost smile.

"Do you ever smile?" I ask amused.

"No" He answered, not even slightly joking.

"Never?" I ask.

"No"

"He's lying" Joanne walks in, with a smile.

"I was having a private meeting with Ashley" He cleared his throat.

"I can see that hun" Joanne gave him a kiss on the cheek. "I just came to tell you both that lunch is ready" She said before walking out, closing the door behind her.

"Well what do you want to do?" Phoenix asked.

"Huh?" I ask confused.

"Do you want to live here permanently?" He questioned.

"Yes... Yes I do" I smiled.

If my mom wants me out, I'll give her what she wants.

"Great. Joanne will carry you to get your things tomorrow" He said and I nod. "Now let's go get something to eat" He stand and we walked out.

"How can she choose Stefan over Damon?" Stacy frowns, throwing popcorn at the TV.

"Don't worry, she won't choose him for long" I grinned.
