BULLY-a.i-l.h

Chapter 11-choices

-Aria's POV-

"Maybe this can pursuance you." The voice echos in my head as another white light fades into my vision. My eyes slowly flutter open, to see my brother, head in hands. Ash, Cal and Mikey are there too, along with Alyson. They all have tears running down their faces.

"Don't cry." I whisper running my thumb up and down Ashton's hand, which is already in mine.

Ashton's head slightly lifts to meet my eyes. He jumps into my arms, crushing me, but I djnt care. All that matters is him and I. His pink lips crash against mine as ours move in sync. I smile againt his mouth, wrapping my arms around his toned torso.

"You mean so much to me Aria, never do that again." He says as I slowly stand up. It hurts all over but I do it anyway. These people are worth the pain.

"Lukey!" I yell, launching myself into his arms.

"Ari!" He yells as I hug him.

"You were dead." He whispers, "You flatlined as soon as they pulled the plug."

"Well I'm still here, and my birthday is in six days." I smile.

-Aria's POV-

I grab my new dress from my closet. My ankle is already feeling a million times better, and as long as I'm careful with both my ankle and my wrist, I'm allowed I do whatever I want without a brace on them, as long as I wear them at night.

The dress is a gorgeous semi-sparkly gold with a sweetheart neckline and a ballgown skirt with a train, it's beautiful. I pull on the dress and some plain black platform pumps from louboutin. Then, I curl my hair and do my makeup. The statement of the outfit is my red lipstick, much like Taylor swift red lipstick. I quickly put on my Tiffany's jewellery set which I wear a lot since it has gorgeous Tiffany diamonds, and I walk downstairs to meet Ashton, who's taking me on out first ever date.

I run back to my room and grab my cute little clutch purse and go back to the staircase, ready to make my grand entrance into my own apartment. Ashton waits patiently at the bottom of the stairs in a black suit, white shirt and red tie, along with his hair actually done for once in a while. He has it brushed forward sort of, and his waves look amazing.

I walk gracefully down the stairs as he looks at me with a huge smile on his face. As I reach the bottom of the stairs his pecks my cheek lightly.

"You're...like...perfection." He stutters, running a hand through his hair awkwardly, blushing.

"You're like perfection too." I say, smiling widely.

"You look beautiful Aria." He says in a more formal tone of voice, pulling me in for a hug.

"So are you going to tell me where we're going for my birthday date yet?" I ask him as Luke walks over.

"Now you two, be good, I expect you both back here by midnight, no sex." He says jokingly. I hit him on the arm and then Ashton holds open the door for me, taking my hand as we go outside. He then holds a limo door open for us.

"You went all out for this." I say, smiling as he closes the door behind him and we drive away.

We drive for about ten minutes before we pull up to one of the most amazing restaurants in the country, the brasserie vashappenin. It's super formal and it was founded by Zayn from one direction, but now I think their management controls it.

Ashton holds my hand again as we walk in and we're seated on a cute little semi open balcony alone together.

"Courtesy of mr. Malik." A waiter says as he pours us each a glass of champagne.
