Distance // Ashton Irwin

39. Together

So here I was, slightly awake but still very sleepy and wondering who the hell had just woken me up.

It had to be one of the boys.

I slowly arose from my bed and sat up. I felt a soft hand touch my cheek and then he placed his arm around my shoulder before whispering 'I'm sorry.'

It was Ashton.

I had told myself for days that I would be mad at him if I saw him again but how could I be? It almost seemed impossible to be mad at him.

I shuffled myself over so that Ashton would have room to crawl into bed next to me.

I know that he had alot of explaining to do and I had some big news to tell him, but right now all I wanted to do was take advandtage of the fact that Ashton was here, and cuddle up to him.

I nuzzled my head softly into his chest and I felt his arms wrap themselves around my neck.

"I love you" he whispered.

I slightly lifted up my head. "I love you too" I whispered back.

"By the way.." he started. "I'm going to be here for you no matter what, I'm not just here because soon we will have a little family, but I am also here because no matter how hard I try, I just can't forget you. I am so inlove with you Holly" he whispered.

Wait. He knew?

"How did you find out?" I asked.

"Cleo."

Of course.

"Please don't leave me again."

"I promise I won't" said Ashton gently placing kisses on my forehead.

I once again nuzzled my head into his chest and within seconds I fell asleep.
