Can You Keep a Secret?//Ashton Irwin

4-"God im such a girl"

*Ashton's P.O.V*
Well that just happened. You seriously need to stop going into the restroom in this house. It's just weird. I mean there I was just walking back to the basement then BOOM! I'm on the floor with Claire laying on top of me.

Okay that's cool.

And then when she was pushing herself up, she sorta knocked the air out of me and I guess she noticed because she shot up and ended up straddling me
Which was... Dude! I mean she was straddling me and I just layed there like an idiot.

Like 'Hey you're super hot and you're literally on top of me and I could snog you if I could right now but can you get off please, I'm in idiot who makes stupid decisions. Okay thanks.' She got up and I got a good look at her.

She was wearing black converse with dark skinny jeans, a nirvana T-shirt and her hair was long and wavy. She looked gorgeous, as always. But those jeans, I don't want to sound creepy but her straddling me with those jeans on, I don't think I can handle it.

HELL! I CANT EVEN TALK TO HER WITHOUT BLUSHING RIDICULOUSLY!

She helped me up and there was a moment of silence, she was looking at me from up to down, her eyes mainly focusing on my shirt.

I could tell what was happening and I knew that if she kept doing that I would do something retarded.

"Um Claire?" I asked trying to sound innocent as possible. "Are you okay?" I put my hands on her shoulders. It looked like she was about to start drooling.
It took her a few seconds to actually look me in the eye.

"Oh um yeah? Yeah." She didn't seem too focused. I was holding back a smirk that was begin to come upon my face. Before I knew it, my hands were on her hips and I was leaning in.

I THINK IM BEING POSSESSED BECAUSE IM NOT DOING THIS I SWEAR TO GOD!

I tried to play it off by moving her out of the way. "I'll see you after practice." I said, barely flashing a smile. I felt my cheeks turn a bright red.

God I'm such a girl.

I ran downstairs and saw the boys staring at me. "What?" I asked hoping that my face wasn't as red as they felt.

"What took you so long?" Michael asked while Calum and Luke began to smirk, giving me this look. "I tripped on my way out of the bathroom and I guess I took forever to get up." that was almost completely true.

"And was Claire around when this happened?" Calum asked giving me the most devilish smile I've ever seen. Michael and Luke shot him a glare. "What's that supposed to mean?" Michael asked furiously.

"Oh! Uh-" Calum said wide eyed as if he forgot Michael was there when he said that. Luke chimed in, saving Calum.

"Well she's very friendly and we thought maybe she helped him up when he fell."
"Oh..." Michael trailed off, looking down at his guitar, tuning it. Luke took this opportunity to smack Calum upside the head, then shot me a glare.

"I'll see you guys next Friday!" Michael said while closing the door.

I was walking down the drive way when I heard Luke call for me. "Ashton bud, come here a sec." i nervously walked over to him and Calum.

"Yeah?" I asked trying to avoid eye contact. "What's up with you and Claire?" Calum urgently asked. "Nothing."
I answered truthfully there, my stupid ass doesn't know how to make something happen with her.

Luke raised his eyebrow at me. "It's obvious that you like her, Michael is just an idiot when it comes to this stuff." I felt my face turn pale.

Am I really that obvious??

"Nah mate, you got it all wrong, she's just a friend." I said trying to cover this up. he simply squinted at me, while Calum looked even more lost than a ten year old in an advanced algebra class. He just kept looking at me and Luke blankly, like nothing was going through his mind.

Finally Luke responded.

"Alright whatever you say mate, just remember, some things, you just can't hide." he said pointing his finger at my nose. He and Calum walked the opposite direction as me, down the street.

God, one day I'm gonna get run over by Michael because he'll finally figure it out.
I'm so screwed.
