Jo's POV

Ashton's friend Calum was coming to try and get us out.

Great.

"Oh Ashton that's such good news!"

I tried to act happy, but I knew I couldn't fool Ashton. To be honest, as much as I wanted to leave this hellhole of a store, I wasn't having a bad time. I guess you could say that I was enjoying my time with Ashton.

"Aren't you happy Jo?"

I couldn't fool him.

"Oh I am. It's just, you're like the first boy I've been able to trust since what happened me. Now Calum is coming and you'll be gone before I can say goodbye and probably forget my name by this time tomorrow."

Ashton stared at me as tears welles up in my eyes. I didn't want him to forget me, even though he didn't even know me 24 hours ago.

"Jo, how could I forget you? You've made me realize that not everyone who seems happy has had a good life and to respect women more. And you also nearly made me try on a dress-how could I forget that?! But the point is I won't forget you. I was actually wondering if you would come meet the boys? As in Calum, Michael and Luke back at the hotel? You can stay in my room of you want."

I gave Ashton a 'watch it' look and he started talking again.

"I....I mean I can get another room for me and you can stay in my one"

"Nice save" I said as I started giggling and Ashton joined in.

When we had finished laughing, a defending alarm boomed through the store and there was a crash at the front entrance of glass. Ashton ran as fast as he could toward where the crash came from before turning around and coming back to where I was standing. He took off his shoes and handed them to me.

"I'm no expert, but I don't think you'll get very far in high heels"

I took the stilettos I was wearing off and replaced them with Ashton's shoes and we ran towards the front of the store. If Ashton wasn't there, then I would have been shitting myself.

When we reached the front entrance, there was a soccer ball and little shards of glass in the way of the now broken door. The boy who was outside now stepped past the smashed door and towards Ashton.

"Calum fucking Hood. You broke the door. The police will probably come."

"shit" the boy mumbled. I recognised him from the magazine which Ashton was featured in. He was the one who looked slightly Asian in the photo but now that I had seen him, I reckoned he was from a tropical country or warm one. Maybe New Zealand. I don't know. He was hot, to say the least, and the Green Day shirt he was wearing had me weak at the knees.

Man I Love Green Day.

"Yeah oops. Calum you fucked up."

Ashton was suddenly in a bad mood and he looked like he could knock his bandmate out with only one punch.

"Hey! You fucked up as much as I did! If you didn't get stuck in here with some slutty girl then I wouldn't have even had to come down here" Calum raised his voice and he had a deep Aussie accent like Ashton.

"She is not a slut." Ashton said through gritted teeth.

Did they both forget I was there?

"Ashton, I know you aren't wearing your glasses but you can still see. Look at what she's wearing"

I looked down at the dress I was wearing and I agreed that I looked slutty.

"Calum she's not a slut"

"I bet she goes around fucking a different guy every night."

After those worlds came out of Calum's mouth, Ashton pounced on Calum and punched him in the chest, causing Calum to fall backwards.

I didn't know what to do.

Ashton stood in front of a bleeding Calum and I stood five feet behind.

Before I could react and Calum stood up, pushing Ashton hard.

"What the fuck Irwin!? What's gotten into to you!?"

Ashton was visibly trembling with anger and Calum was only upsetting him more.

"Look. Don't you dare touch me again. Also you don't know Jo or her situation stop thinking you're better then everyone. Jo is not a slut and I am not at fault for getting locked in this store. Let's just fucking leave, I'm done with your shit Hood."

And with that Ashton grabbed my hand and began pulling me towards to car Calum arrived in.

But not before police sirens started to sound.

"Get in!" Calum yelled hurrying us all into the large van.

Ashton quickly got into the drivers seat forcing me into to back with Calum.

Ashton pulled off just as the police arrived at the store, still not saying a word to Calum.

" Look Jo I know we got off in the wrong foot. I'm sorry. It wasn't right if me to assume." Calum spoke slowly and I could hear Ashton's heavy breathing from the front seat.

I averted my eyes out of habit.

"It's ok I get it, you were frustrated and the situation was misleading"

"Bullshit. You were being a douche" Ashton barked from the front seat.

"I was talking to Jo!" Calum shouted making me cringe.

"YOU KNOW WH-" Ashton started

Before he could finish I spoke up.

"Guys please just calm the hell down! I'm over this conversation. Just stop."

And with that we drove to to hotel in silence.
