Chapter Twenty Five

Ashton

The way Alex smiles in her sleep makes me want to spend the rest of my life with her. I never felt this way about anybody else in my life. The way she crinkles her nose up when she's thinking, or when she's dreaming. The way she snores lightly in her sleep. The way she grips onto my shirt like I'm going to disappear randomly. The way her eyes open randomly in the middle of the night, looking around like she's lost. The way she tosses and turns, snuggling the blanket closer to her face.

My fingers traced the back of her neck a few times before I brought them to her jaw line. She clenched her mouth, making her muscles tense up beneath my fingers. I waited until she relaxed before moving my fingers down to her chin. I lifted her face so I could get a look at her. She was so beautiful. The tips of my finger trailed over her soft, delicate lips. I loved them. I loved it when they were pressed against mine, and it felt like home. Then you have her eyes. Her bright blue eyes are always sparkling. Her eyes can hide all her emotions, and you wouldn't be able to tell. Let's not forget her cheeks. The way my hands covered them completely when I kiss her, or the way they turn bright red when I tell her something cute. Or when she smiles. That can make my day brighter. When she talks about something she loves, her smile is brighter than the sun.

Isn't it love when you think about your future life with that one person? Isn't it love when I want to have her wrapped in my arms when she's sick, or when she comes home upset after a long day? I can imagine my life with her in it. I want a family, and I think she's apart of it. Maybe I'm just crazy. It's only been a couple months

"Ash?" she whispered just barely, rubbing her eyes.

"Good morning, gorgeous," I said with a big smile on my face. "I was going to make some breakfast, but I was looking at you sleep." She raised her eyebrows, laughing at me. "That sounded creepy. Well I'm going to go now, make some breakfast." I laughed as I got up off the bed, but kissing her nose before leaving completely.

Once I got downstairs, I noticed Michael and Calum were on the big couch together, I thought they were upstairs though? Eh, whatever. I decided I might as well make everyone breakfast, so I went to wake those two up. "Mikey!" I said pushing him lightly. He ignored my call, so I just pushed him on the floor, which seemed to wake him up quickly. "Cal," I pushed him lightly, but he ignored me just like Michael did. So I did the same thing I did to Michael. He landed on the floor next to Michael, groaning in pain. "You and your boyfriend need to get up." Michael looked up at me then put his face in his arms and mumbled, "Not my boyfriend."

"You're a dick," Calum said glaring at me as he got up to his feet. Michael sat on the floor, not wanting to get up.

"I'm making food. Do me a favour Cal and wake up Luke and Sarah." Calum nodded and headed upstairs. As he did that, I grabbed the stuff I needed to make breakfast. I thought some eggs and toast was easy enough to make.

"Why'd you wake me up?" Luke asked walking into the kitchen to grab something to drink. I didn't bother to turn around to look at him since I was currently searching for the one ingredient I needed.

"Do we have Vegemite?" I asked Luke who was leaning against the counter holding a bottled water between his hands. He looks exhausted, even though it's ten in the morning. "Mate, why do you look so tired?"

Luke quickly shook his head with a smile on his face. He didn't- "Luke, do you know where-" Sarah walked in, wearing his shirt. I looked at her, then at Luke, then back at her with a huge smile on my face. "Shut up, Ashton." She warned shooting me a glare. She reminded me so much of Em.

"I didn't say anything! I just want to know where the damn Vegemite is." I said holding my hands up in defense as she walked to Luke whispering something in his ear before turning around on her heel and walking back up stairs. "You didn't did you?"
