Girl In The Crowd~ Ashton Irwin Fanfic*DISCONTINUED*

Chapter 5

“I don’t know what to wear!”

It was 4:30, and Maize was currently at my house helping me decide what to wear for my date with Ashton. He told me to where something casual and comfy, but I wasn’t sure where we were going.

Sighing and running her fingers through her hair, Maize said in exasperation, “Z … seriously, just chill out.” (It was ironic that she was the calm one right now—that’s usually me.)

I gaped at her. How was she so calm? I had a date with Ashton freaking Irwin soon! “I can’t!” I shrieked at her, and she winced, rubbing her ears. Finally, I exhaled. “No … I’m calm—completely and utterly calm.”

 “Good,” Maize sighed as she stood up and slung her bag over her shoulder. Glancing at her phone, she gave a huff of annoyance. “Look, I’m already thirty minutes late. Mum’s gonna kill me—so I gotta get home.” She said, frowning. I immediately rushed forward, locking my hands around her shoulders and beginning to shake her. “You’ll find something—and get off me.” Maize slowly peeled my hands from her shoulders.

I backed away from her and gave a slow nod. “Bye,” I exhaled softly, ducking my head down.

“Bye Z. Good luck.” She waved and exited, leaving me alone in my house.

To be honest I wasn’t feeling this date. It’s not that I don’t want to go out with Ashton … I mean I Really do, but I can’t go through with it. I can’t find a stupid outfit, I’m a nervous wreck, and honestly I just feel that I’m not good enough to be accepting to go on this date with him. I decided to do what I thought was best or what I convinced myself was best and text Ashton.

To Ashton- I got to call it a sick day, Reschedule?

Ashton- Yeah sure I understand … just let me know when you feel better okay?

I smiled at his text and sighed. I knew he wanted to get to know me and I know he wanted to hang out, but I had to convince myself out of it. Which instantly made me feel guilty. I liked him as the adorable blonde Australian drummer boy he was, but I wanted to know more than that. I want to know him not Ashton Irwin from 5 Seconds Of Summer.

I decided to call it a day with the time now being six forty five. Ashton was supposed to be here around seven and I should’ve been ready, but instead here I am in bed with pajamas on feeling sorry for myself. I should feel sorry for him. I lied to Him. I decided on not texting Maize right away to tell her what happened or else she would probably turn in Flash or something and turn up at my house and force me to tell Ashton the truth and go on that stupid date. She’ll be here tomorrow. I know she’ll want to here all about “Zashton’s” first date, but instead I’ll tell her the truth. Oh how fun that will be.

I had to of been sitting up for some time blankly thinking to myself because it was now nine o’clock at night and I was pretty damn tired. I decided on getting some rest hoping tomorrow won’t be so bad.

Hoping.

“Can I come over Mrs. Irwin?” Maize asked into the phone.

“I suppose Mrs. Clifford.” I laughed trying not to sound too obvious something was wrong.

“Okay bye!” She said over-excitedly and hung up.

*Knock Knock*

“Seriously Maize?” I laughed to myself.

I forced myself out of my 3 over-sized blankets and very comfortable couch and walked to open the door.
