Falling For Ashton Edwards (Completed)

Winter Vacation

The weeks that lead up to winter vaction drug on. But when the last day of school ended, I couldn't be more estatic. My bags were packed in the trunk of Ashton's mother's car which he had borrowed for the next couple weeks that we would be using the cottage. I couldn't wait to be have two glorious weeks along with Ash. Ash and I walked out of the school parking lot hand in hand, everyone looking at us with the usual faces. I shook my head as we approached the car and jumped inside. Ashton chuckled under his breath as he brought the car to life. "What's so funny?" I asked.

"You're just so..."

"Weird? Odd? Sexylicous?" I giggled.

"Sexylicous?" He laughed.

"Sexylicous." I confirmed, nodding my head.

"All of those words discribe you very well but I was looking for the word 'dork'." He laughed again.

"Dork?" I mocked hurt, pressing my hand to my heart. "I'm so hurt Ash."

"Baby, I didn't mean it." He frowned, guiltily. I giggled and kissed his cheek. He rose his eyebrows, his lips turning into a smile as we pulled out of the parking lot.

"Come on! Come on!" Ashton yelled from the outside of our bedroom. I took my time; my hiking boots, winter coat, scarf, hat, and mittens were all on me. When I finally emerged from my room, Ashton was waiting anxiously by the door, his hands on his hips. "What took you so long?!" He asked.

"I was masterbating! What do you think Ashton." I laughed. His eyebrows shot up and his cheeks became a deep shade of red.

"Um... I didn't need to know that." He said, pulling the sliding door to the side and steping out into the winter air. I followed behind him and jumped on his back. He gripped my thighs and carried me on a trail. For about a mile, he carried me until I jumped down. I clasped my fingers around his we walked together up the trail. The winter air was crisp and refreshing and it was lightly snowing. I stuck out my tongue and let the snowflakes fall onto my tongue. Ashton chuckled and pulled me over a fallen tree. When we finally reached our destination, I gasped and hugged Ashton to me. The gorgeous scene seemed to come out of a picturesque seasonal calender. The snow slumped against the trees and sparkled as the sun hit it. The evergreens contridicted the white of the snow, but was beautiful nonetheless. 

"Do you like it?" Ashton asked.

"Like it? Ash, I love it!" I quickly kissed his lips and plopped onto my butt to savor this experience. The winter birds chirped happily while the animals that lived in the woods hid from our sight. Ashton sat nex to me and pulled me into this lap. 

"Graduation is soon." He commented.

"Yup!" I replied.

"What do you plan on doing? You know, after graduation." He asked.

"Oh, I'll probably go to whichever university accepts me." I replied, shrugging. "What about you?"

"Same." He shrugged.

"Oh! I have this assignment to take photos of what love means. Would you like to help?" I asked him.

"Do you love me?" He asked. My heart sped up.

"Do you love me?" I asked him.

"Yes." He answered.

"I love you too Ash." He leaned in to kiss me and I quickly pulled out my camera and snapped a picture. He chuckled and our lips met. We seperated and I made a snow angel. Ashton did the same and I took a picture of them. We walked back to the cottage together, our hands swinging high in the air. I took him back inside and we took off our wet clothes. Then, we snuggled on the couch, watching the flatscreen TV above the fire place.

"Natalie?" He asked suddenly. I looked up at him, his beautiful features reminded me of an angel.

"Yes?" I replied.

"What was the best thing that has ever happened to you?" He asked.

"Falling for Ashton Edwards." I replied and kissed his lips with all my heart.
