Haidyn’s POV
These moments are what convince me to stay. I keep the bad so I can have the good. I know it’s wrong, but everyone has given me the same advice. They don’t understand though. They never will. But that’s okay. They don’t need to.
“I’m going to jump in the shower and then we’ll leave in a couple hours, okay?” he said as he placed a kiss on my forehead.
“Alright,” I replied.
“Feel free to join me,” he said with a wink.
“Don’t count on it, Irwin.” We’ve had this conversation a couple times.
“I know,” he replied with a sigh. I know this seems weird, but I have my moral boundaries. He’s pretty open to the idea of an “intimate relationship” but I’m not comfortable with that yet so he understands. At least we’re both Christians. Why am I even living with him anyways? Oh right. My parents were killed in an accident. It happened about 7 or 8 months ago. Of course I’m 18 so I needed to be living away from my parents anyway. Ashton’s 19 and his band has been doing really well, so he makes the money, but it’s only enough to keep the house in order while I look for a job. I’m saving part of the family inheritance for college.
I went ahead and grabbed a flannel and black jeans with a pair of brown combat boots and kept my makeup pretty natural. I threw my hair up in a bun and grabbed my phone to check twitter.
“@Haidyn_R plz die already. Ur not even right for @Ashton5SOS”
“@Haidyn_R congrats on being worlds ugliest animal. Do us all a favor and just kill urself now.”
“@Ashton5SOS quite the catch lol. Wat a tramp @Haidyn_R”
This was nothing new. I closed the app and was startled to hear Ashton’s voice shouting for me.
“Haidyn? Haidyn!”
“Y-yes?”
“God, Haidyn answer me!”
“I’m sorry Ashton,” I answered with aggravation.
“What were you looking at on your phone?”
“Oh-Uh-Nothing.” He grabbed my phone as I answered.
“Haidyn! I told you not to look at that!”
“I’m sorry.”
“C’mere,” he demanded embracing me in a hug, “Please, Haidyn. Don’t read it. Set your account to private. I’ll check it to make sure, so don’t try anything.” He’s so protective. It’s annoying!
“Asht—“
“No, Haidyn. Don’t ‘Ashton’ me. I’m not gonna let them hurt you?”
“Okay,” I whined, “I love you.”
“I love you too, kitten, so so much,” he whispered, “Now let’s head out I don’t want to be late.”
“Alright,” I giggled.
We jumped in the car and headed to the studio blasting the radio and singing along to every song. It’s been a while since I’ve seen the boys so I’m excited. I’ve heard that Michael’s is black and white and Calum has a tattoo. Luke’s mom probably hasn’t let him do anything yet so, I’m sure nothing’s changed. We pulled into the studio and Ash and I walked in to see the boys on the couch.
“HAIDYN!!!” They all screamed as they ran into a group hug.
“Hey guys! I’ve missed you!”
“We missed you too,” said Michael
“Holy Jesus! I love your hair!”
“Thanks! It was pink a couple weeks ago!” he said with a chuckle as he wrapped his arm around a girl, “Haidyn, this is Mattie. My girlfriend.”
“Pleasure. Oh my gosh! I love you pants!” I screamed. Her pants were black on one side and checkered on the other.”
“Ha! Thanks! Hot Topic.”
“Shut Up! I love that store!”
“Me too! Oh my gosh, where have you been all my life!” she laughed.
“Girls…” groaned Calum.
“I know, right?” replied Ashton, “Alright, let’s get started!”
“Here, Haidyn, sit by me,” said Luke.
“Okay!” I replied. Ashton suddenly sat beside me as I sat down placing his hand on my knee and placing a kiss on my lips: in other words, making sure everyone knew I was his.
“Ashton, babe, will you back off,” I whispered with a giggle.
“Oh-uh-yeah, sorry. I just want to make sure you know I love you.”
“I love you too.”
“Ash,” interrupted Michael, “can we play her Don’t Stop?” Ashton sighed with exasperation.
“I guess it wouldn’t hurt.”
Ashton sat on his drum stool and the rest of the boys got their instruments. Mattie sat beside me.
“You're like perfection, some kind of holiday,” Ashton winked at me when they sang that line,
“You got me thinking that we could run away
You want I'll take you there,
You tell me when and where,
Oh oh oh oh
But then I asked for your number,
Said you don't have a phone
It's getting late now,
I gotta let you know
That everybody wants to take you home tonight
But I'm gonna find a way to make you mine
Don't stop doin' what you're doin'
Every time you move to the beat
It gets harder for me
And you know it, know it, know it
Don't stop 'cause you know that I like it
Every time you walk in the room
You got all eyes on you
And you know it, know it, know it
You're coming close now, swear I can taste it,
You got me tongue tied, I can't escape it
I'm loving what you got,
But then you push me off,
Oh oh oh oh,”
The song continued as Mattie and I got up to dance. When they finished the song, they decided to record a few songs, which Mattie and I also danced to. The session ended at 5:30 and everyone began getting hungry so we ended up going to get pizza at Michael’s recommendation. He really hadn’t changed. We got to the pizza place and got a large pepperoni pizza and devoured it. When we finished we all paid and Mattie exchanged numbers. It was truly an amazing night.
