It's been two whole weeks after Ashton had to go through the struggle of being tied to a chair for several hours on end. A lot has changed. Luke and I have sorted out our differences and let everything off our chests, resulting in that we can actually be in the same room without shouting at each other or bringing up our past issues. One Monday morning I woke up to flowers being delivered which were from Calum Hood who was begging for forgiveness on the little card attached. I forgave him.
Michael wouldn't stop trying to talk to me. He even slept on my doorstep one night. The next day after I found him curled up by my door I let him in and made him one of my signature black coffee's which he loved. After him telling me how amazing it tasted he began to explain the whole situation in great detail.I forgave him. As for my business that I attempted to set up, my plan did work.
I managed to buy the small shop in the middle of the city however I haven't done anything else with it. The last and probably most important thing that has happened in the past two weeks- Ashton and I have finally made it official. All the random make out sessions and pizza dates were confusing the both of us therefore Ashton came to my house with two large cheese pizzas, just like how it happened the first ever time and asked me to be his girlfriend, and how I said yes.
Now, it's ten o clock on a rainy Tuesday morning. I managed to lift myself up and out of bed. My stomach made an awfully large grumble, I need to eat desperately. I checked in the cupboards- there was only a can of baked beans, I looked into the fridge- it was absolutely empty apart from the lonely bottle of tomato ketchup. Great. I then looked out of the window, nothing has changed. The rain is still thundering down, I'd get absolutely drenched in under thirty seconds.
I decided to turn on the television and get all cosy in a blanket to try and distract myself from my hunger. About half an hour passed and all I could think of was 'you need to eat' 'there's no food' 'you need to eat' 'there's no food'. Fuck it. I slipped on some old clothes without washing, tied my hair up into a loose ponytail and put on a waterproof jacket that my mother made me buy. It was like I was running a race at the Olympics. I ran out of the door quickly locking it after myself and started my wet journey.
After walking at a very fast pace for ten minutes without stopping I arrived at my local grocery store. I grabbed a basket and went down and round all of the isles, picking up items on my way. I went to the closest checkout with the lowest amount of people waiting at it and got served rather quickly. The cashier scanned all of my items and told me the total price: $45. I put my hand into my pocket where my purse would usually be. It wasn't there. Shit.
I felt my face burning and could imagine the ugly red colour it had turned. Suddenly someone tapped me on the shoulder which made me jump.
"Do you need some help there?" Ashton questioned whilst chuckling.
"Thank god, yes Ash I've left my purse at home and..." I rambled on and on.
"I've got it" he spoke to the cashier and handed over the right amount of money.
"Thankyou so much" I kissed him on the cheek, collecting my shopping bags and waited for him outside, under the shelter. It then hit me that I was dressed like a complete tramp and had no makeup on whatsoever. 'Calm down he's your boyfriend' my conscience told me, I didn't trust her. I looked up and Ashton was walking towards me with a big grin on his face.
"Hello gorgeous" he greeted me for the second time this morning.
"Hi" I replied with a guilty smile on my face.
He took my hand in his and started to walk out into the rain, which still hadn't stopped.
"Woah, wait you haven't even got a jacket on!" I said whilst looking at his toned, muscular arms. Damn.
"I don't need one, I'm driving!" he spoke above the sound of rain. My mouth formed an 'O' shape which signalled that I understood. He unlocked the car and opened the door for me to get in.
We both sat down and I turned the heating up. Ashton leant over and kissed me on the lips and pulled away in one quick movement. Tease.
"Let's get you home" he winked.
