Chapter 29: vmas and the truth comes out

Ashton POV :

We got to the VMA pre party and got to let off some steam before everything that is going down tomorrow. It started to dawn on me that nights like this may be limited once the baby is born so I wanted to have as much fun as possible without getting drunk. Ava looks really nice in her dress , I can't believe that I got so lucky in life. I am living my dream with my best mates and I am with the girl of my dreams. We had made it in and were having fun, meeting other people. Few hours later , it was time to go head back to the hotel to prepare for tomorrow and everything that was going to come out. I had been bracing myself for what was going to happen but I knew it was not going to go as I imagined. I

The next day:

Ava POV

Today is the day for the VMAs as well as coming clean with everything that has happened in the past couple of weeks.I am excited for everything to come out but also nervous on how everyone will react. But I have come to realize that no matter whta other people think I am happy and that is all that matters. I decided to get in the shower and relax beofre tonight . It is 8 am now and the press release is at 12 so they had a few hours to prepare for the hundreds of questions that will be asked. I then got out of the shower and noticed my belly. It was starting to grow properly now , it was starting to not look like bloating and more like a belly which sort of freaked me out , but I knew that I was going to get something that vould never me replaced. I then got dressed and dried my hair and then walked back out into the room. I waited for Ashton and Calum to get ready so we could have breakfast. Soon they finally got ready and then we headed down for breakfast. We then sat down in a private room and had talked about what today will bring and how everything will be different. " I just can't believe that everything will be revealed today it is crazy" I said looking at everyone else. " Yeah , it is crazy but it is a good thing , you and luke dont have to be awkward and we wont have to hide our relationship " Ashton said to me. I said there are started thinking that as soon as 12 hits the whole time having this whole thing won't be a secret anymore. I am just worried that the fans will be mad or angry and thatt they will call me any name they see fit.

Luke POV

I am nervous for people's reactions to what we have to say. I want them to know that Ava getting pregnant was not because she cheated on me . Well in a way she did , but it makes her look bad if we say that it happened that way. I want the best for her , Ashton and their baby. The fans who don't support them are not true fans and should know it. I am also nervous for the vma's tonight , it is going to be huge and excitting. Soon breakfast was over and we had to go back upstairs and collect our things so that once we leave for the vma's we will have everything packed to head back to join the tour in chicago which will be fun.

Ashton POV

See Ava nervous about this press release is making me nervous as well. I want to make her not nervous because I could imagine it is not good for the baby and her health. I am going to keep her as calm as possible , as well as keeping myself calm and collected as well. We then hung around the hotel for a bit and decided to hang by the pool before having to get ready for the show. I knew it may be difficult to get Ava to get in her bathing suit because she was scared that people may get some idea but I dont think so. So we all went up to the ppol ad hung out , some fans came up to us and took pictures and stuff like that. It was fun and something that we all enjoyed but we now had to get ready for the vmas and look nice.

Ava POV

I decided on a all black look for the VMAs , probably not the best idea for LA weather but its ok. As we were leaving for the vmas , the press release broke and fnas were starting to react. At first people were confused , upset and more confused . But as they read the entire satement they started tweeting at us blaming me for everything that has happened and that I am a worst persson in the world. Some tweeted that my baby is a mistake and that I should have a miscarriage and that Ashton will never love me . It really hurt me , I knew coming back into Ashtons life was going to be challenging and filled with hateful people. But I never thought that people could steep so low. It made me want to start crying.

Luke POV

We were sitting in the car on the way to the VMA red carpet when I look over and see Ava looking at her phone crying , I knew something wasnt right . So I go on my phone and look at twitter , my feed is blowing up with tweets invloving me talking about this whole thing with me . Ava and Ashton. I saw some of the tweets , telling ava that she should have a misscarriage , that the baby is worthless , that Ashton will leave her after the baby is born. Some people can be real a**holes . " Ava , none of these people should be making you feel this way. They are idiots and if they were all true fans they would still support you through this . I love you , we all love you and we all support you " Ashton said to her putting his arm around her and kissing her on the cheek. I decided that I had to tweet , maybe they would listen to me . " Everyone who is tweeting hurtful and degrading things to Ava STOP ! " I tweeted out hoping it would help.

Ashton POV

I knew that stuff like this was going to happen when this all came out but not to a degree of people tweeting that Ava ahould have a misscarriage . How below the belt can you go with comments like that. All I could do was be there for Ava and go out there and talk to the press about it and see if they could help me with making this all better. As soon as we arrived on the carpet , camera crews and interviewrs had swarmed us asking every question they could about what we had just released. Good thing we have amazinf security who handled all of the press , so we were abke to walk the carpet. I walked the carpet with the boys as well as we walked it with Ava to prove no matter what we are strong together. We chose to only talk to a few news outlets . " hi , so we are here with 5 seconds of summer nominated and are performing tonight here at the VMAs . I have to ask about the press release, is everything good between you guys as well as congratulations are in order as well " one of the reporters asked us . I knew I had to answer this question as I answered it as honesty as possible. " everything is ok between the band and thank you for that , yes we are all very excited " I replied. The interview then continued talking about the band and the upcoming projects we were working on. As we continued to walk down the carpet , the paps were yelling at us and asking for just pictures of me and Ava together , maybe so that when they write up the articles they have a pictures of us together . I don't mind it but Ava might , I want people to know that she not with me for fame or anything like that. We are together because we love eachother and secondly because soon we are going to be a family. After a few more interviews and pictures it was time to head inside and enjoy the showThe interviews were weird and awkward but we made it out ok. We were now seated for first performance then we had to head backstage to get dressed for our performance . The opening performance was something. But we now had to head backstage , so we got to the dressing room and got changed with our stage clothes. They were a bit more casual than the red carpet look but still us . Ava was backstage with us and it made everythig feel right. Everyone backstage heard what we announced earlier and came up and congratualted us . The people who worked the MTV instagram wanted a picture of me and Ava together to pose for a picture . We saw it as they posted it , it was captioned " Look who we found backstage , @ashtonirwin and @Avarichards! Congratulations on your announcement.

Ava POV

So as the night goes on , everyone is congratulating us and it is a little weird. The twitter stuff has calmed down and people are sort of starting to be nice or rational. I know that if I was a fan and that a scandal came out about my favourite band and that they were hiding it for so long I would be devastated as well , I wasnt going to attack the people especailly when one of the people invloved is pregnant , you just dont do that. But I get to wait for the boys to come off the stage after their VMA performance that I know that is going to be amazing.

Luke POV

We are about to perform Amnesia for the first time on tv and it is going to be good. I am excitted for people who are ot or fans to hear one of our songs . We were introduced as not a boyband but as a real band and we got compared to blink which is so cool. As we started playing the crowd starting to scream and sing along it is so cool that we get to experience this. Everything that has happened today doesn't matter because right now we are here doing this. Soon the song was over and we headed backstage and got to get changed . But before we made to the dressing room we saw Ava running up to us and she ran up to Ashton and hugged him of course then she hugged the rest of us and then we all headed back to change into our outfits for the rest of the show.

Ava POV

After the show we headed back to the hotel , got changed and headed off to the airport for Chicago. We were able to have a private jet again so we could get there for tomorrow. I decided that for the plane I had to have on the leggings and comfy sweater look. I then found me spot an fell asleep it was the best idea because I was super tired and wanted to have enough sleep as possible before we landed.
