Brooke huffed in annoyance as Ashton slammed his bedroom door shut behind them, Ashton's anger seeming to get the better of him. Brooke placed her body on his bed and sat crossed leg, a sigh leaving her mouth. Her eyes followed Ashton's every move, his eyebrows furrowed together and his fists balled tightly shut.

"Why do you always take things out of proportion Ashton? Hm? I don't see why me walking around the place is in any way dangerous!" Brooke huffed, crossing her arms over her chest stubbornly.

"Because!" Ashton yelled, sighing straight after once he saw Brooke's head hang low and tears pool in her lately dull eyes.

"I'm sorry okay? I just get frustrated when people ask me questions." Ashton sighed, taking a seat next to her on his bed, leaving a small gap between the too.

"You don't say!" Brooke admired sarcastically, rolling her eyes for a second before everything went quiet.

"The reason I don't like you wandering is because there was a girl I loved, a long time before you, when I was a little younger and we had grown up together . . . She was taken from this house while we were all here, I was upstairs and when I found out I flipped." Ashton sighed, holding his head lowly and letting his eyes settling upon the sadly frowning girl.

"Where is she now?"

"Dead." Nothing more was needed to be said, Brooke understood perfectly an wished she hasn't even asked in the first place, she now felt like she forced it out of him but at least she knew he wasn't made of steal and had a heart in there somewhere.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't-"

"No, it's fine. I had to tell you at one point anyway . . ." Everything felt silent again, both just sitting crossed legged on Ashton's bed, Brooke's body now slowly moving towards his.

Her small arms reached out and pulled his body into her's, her arms wrapping securely around his tense body. He slowly eased into her touch and returned the hug, wrapping his long warm and protective arms around her body, pulling her in closer until their knees where touching and their chin's where resting on one another's shoulders.

"I'm sorry." Brooke whispered, her hand travelling up to his hair and stroking his golden locks softly through her fingers. She lay grabbed his body and pulled his shoulders down so that his head was resting in her lap, his hand playing wit the long stray strands of hair whisky her fingers traced through the locks of his hair.

"Don't be sorry." Ashton whispered in return, a small smile on his face as he pulled her closer and cupped her face, pulling her lisp down to his and moulding his lips into her's perfectly.

Their lips moved perfectly together, silence filling the room besides the sound of their lips smacking and soft pants leaving their mouths. Finally pulling away after a few minutes of making out, Ashton just stared at her, holding her body close to his and making her promise she would always wake him up before going wandering off.

She promised, and she meant it.

Later on that day, Brooke decided that she wanted to play a game or do something to entertain herself because she was insanely bored to the core and no one was speaking to her. Ashton was working, Calum was helping Ashton, Luke was busying on his phone and Michael was chilling on the Xbox in the living room, others lounging round also.

She ran a hand through her hair and let her eyes travel around the room until they landed on Luke, who was completely oblivious to the world, both earphones in and some heavy type metal playing but Brooke wasn't too sure, all she knew was that whoever this band were; they were loud and good. She stood up and slowly made her way over to him, his eyes flicking upwards to meet we dull ones as her movement seized and her body sat down directly next to his, her head laying on his shoulder, body tensed up.

"Can I listen?" She asked softly, seeing as people were working and quiet. Luke only had one earphone in so luckily he heard her soft hopeful voice.

He nodded and passed her the slightly vibrating with sound- earpiece, "You know them?" He asked curiously, wondering if she knew the band. Brooke listened for a second before shaking her head, she didn't know them but she had probably heard of them before. Brooke caught up pretty well when it came to music.

"No but they sound familiar, what's there name?" Brooke asked curiously, turning her head to look up at him, a small frown on his face with a tint of a smile shining through.

"Foo Fighters." He shrugged, a smile dancing across his lips. Brooke returned the infectious smile and poked his cheek, Luke's eyes widening in confusion.

"Did you just poke my cheek?" Luke asked confused, his eyebrows furrowed a small laugh escaping him while Brooke just shrugged.

"Yes I did, got a problem with that blonde?" She teased, a look of determination swooning over Luke's features, her eyes widening in realisation.

"Yeah, I do. You better start running babe." Luke laughed as Brooke jumped up spastically and screams, running for her life with Luke running straight behind her.
