I could feel the sunlight hitting my skin before I even opened my eyes. It confused me for a minute because I knew I wasn’t at home or Ashton’s. Both my room and his room had curtains that didn’t let that much sunlight in. As I rolled onto my back and felt around the bed, I remembered that I had finally arrived in London last night.
I rolled to my left side before opening my eyes. I was facing the door of the bedroom and the nightstand was right near my head. I noticed my phone resting on it and charging, so I reached for it. I didn’t remember plugging it in last night. Actually, I didn’t remember much past Ashton waking me up to come in the house, saying hi to the boys and Mrs. Hood, and then sitting on the couch. The rest of it was a complete blank.
When I looked at my phone and the twitter notifications, I realized why I didn’t remember anything.
@Calum5SOS: She hasn’t been here ten minutes and she’s passed out already. Jetlag and a comfy Ash make for a sleepy @emmyal
With the tweet, Calum had posted a picture of Ashton and me on the couch. Ashton was stretched out, his back against the arm of the couch, a smile on his face as he looked down at me. I was laying on his chest, my face resting in the crook of his neck. I had my right hand wrapped loosely around Ashton’s waist and Ashton had both arms wrapped around my back, our legs entwined.
But that wasn’t the only notification I had.
@Ashton5SOS: Emmy is finally here!! I am so excited to spend the next month with my best friend @emmyal
@Luke5SOS: We’ve all been eagerly awaiting the arrival of @emmyal and she’s already asleep. Sorry we’re boring Em!
@Michael5SOS: “Guys, I’m so hap-” only @emmyal would fall asleep mid sentence. Jetlag-1 Em-0
With proof of me falling asleep nearly the second I got into the house, I knew Ashton had moved me into the bedroom and plugged my phone in, but that wasn’t the only thing I knew. I knew without even going through the rest of my timeline that the picture Calum had posted probably created drama.
Taking a deep breath, I scrolled through my timeline from the past eight hours.
@5SOS_Updaters: Emerson is in London with the boys!
@mashtonpotatoes: OMFG. The picture Cal posted of Ashton and Emerson is too fucking cute!
@cakeislyfe: If you don’t think it’s awesome that Em flew to London to be with Ash and the boys, get out.
@watermalum: ALLWIN IS OTP FOR LIFE. THE ALLWIN COUCH PICTURE IS TOO MUCH. #JUSTDATEALREADY
@blamecal: I am 1000000% sure Allwin are dating. That couch picture is just another piece of evidence.
@fall_lashton: Was the picture Cal posted of Em and Ash necessary? Like really? No.
