Loving Secrets: An Ashton Irwin Fanfiction

Chapter 25

Luke's POV

I finally got done getting changed and having to go through stage prepping and I go back into the dressing room to get some alone time. I was not in the best mood at the moment, that talk with Ashton today was stressing me out and I couldn’t stop thinking about it. At first it seemed like a fine discussion about an issue and then we always end up fighting in the end. But this time it was different, it wasn’t us being selfish jackasses fighting over Daniella, well it kind of was, but all the fights before had been different somehow, this time things got personal and took a turn for the worst. I walk into the backroom and who else could possibly be sitting there but the one person who is making my life miserable yet meaningful at the same time, Dani. I look at her but I don’t want her to ask me questions because I know she can tell that I’m upset, she was good at that.

“Luke.” she says and I breath in a bit before turning around to look at her.

“What?” I say a bit too harshly, but I couldn’t help it at this point everything I said was harsh.

“Is something wrong?” she asks, she never asked that, well she did but only when she knew the answer to that question was yes.

“No, everything’s fine why?” I say because I couldn’t tell her what was wrong, not just now, but ever, the thing that was bothering me is something I will never tell anyone not even Calum or Michael. It’s something I regret but what’s worse is I regret it for the wrong reasons.

“Just wondering is all. What did you have to talk to Ashton about?” she says giving me a smirk and raising her eyebrows.

“We just wanted to talk about getting things back on track. You and his’ relationship isn’t the only one that got distant.” I say but I can tell she knows I’m totally bullshitting her.

“Well I’m glad you two are starting to try and work things out. For a second I thought you guys were happy you hated each other. I’m gonna go find Ash.” she says in a monotone voice. She throws a quick smile at me and leaves the room. I run my hands through my hair and I sit down on the couch where she was sitting. I’m so tired of this. I’m tired of being angry and upset about everything. But I couldn’t help it, even after all this shit I am still in fucking love with her.

Daniella's POV

Luke always makes things so tense and to be honest quite frustrating. I find Ash sitting by the very back of the stage and when he sees me he smiles. I smile back at him and I jog towards him. I sit down next to him and I lean my head on his chest and he kisses the top of my head.

“I’m so happy you’re back here. I missed seeing you on the sidelines babe.” he says and I blush.

“I missed being on the sidelines.” I answer back. He starts to rub my arms and we are both silent for a while taking in the moment and looking out to the seats watching all the fans enter. “I remember the first time I walked into the arena to see you guys perform.” I say quietly. I look up into his hazel eyes and he is smiling at me. “I thought that being there seeing you guys doing what you loved to do was the happiest I would ever be, little did I know I was way wrong.” I say and Ashton leans down and kisses me and I place my hand on his cheek and slowly move it through his hair. “So, I’ve always been curious. What was the process you went through before you decided to ask me out?” I asked trying to take my mind off of the real questions like why did you lie about talking to Luke and what that fucking text message meant. He let’s out an uncomfortable laugh and he rubs his shoulder with his hand.

“I umm, I had to sneak my way around quite a few fans in order to find you. I remember thinking I was never going to find you in that huge crowd and I thought that maybe you had already gone. So I decided to walk back and then in the corner of my eye I saw you walking towards the lot. My heart, and I’m not saying this metaphorically when i say, it skipped a beat. I jogged as fast as I could over to you and I honestly had no idea what I was doing or what I was going to say to you I just knew i had to give it a shot. So I did.” he says playing with my hands. I was about to say something but then I look up and you see Luke. Of course.
