So... do you still want a answer?"...

---

How much I trust him.. I need an answer. The paranoia is getting the best of me and this is the only way to calm it down.

I nod my head.

He sighs.
"Fine... Yes, things happened between me and Vanessa in the past but-"

"Things?" I repeat.
"Yes May. Things." He sighs again.

"What kind of things?"
"What do you think?" He sounds annoyed.

I look at my lap.

"We were in a relationship for a few years." He says in a much softer voice.

Years?!

"Years?" I ask, much calmer than my mind is at this moment.

How can I compete with that?
Years. Ashton and I are barely together for a few months.

"She manipulated me into staying with her. I broke up with her just before I left. But I swear May, you mean more to me than she ever has."

"How did she react when you broke up with her?" I ask, barely above a whisper.

"I don't know. I left her a note."
"You left her a note?" I choke.

"After 2 years of being with her and you broke up via a note? That's like breaking up via a text." I can't help it but the thought about Vanessa finding that note makes me smirk.

"I was afraid that she would persuade me into staying anyway." He smiles hesitantly.

I nod my head.
"Thank you for telling me."

"I'll tell you anything, you just have to ask." He smiles and pulls me into a strong hug.

We lay down.

"Can you stay for the night?" He mutters into my hair.

"Maybe." I smirk.
"I'll take that as a yes."

I feel his lips curl up into a smile.
As for me... I'm not so sure if I'm happy.

That night my thought wandered off to Ashton and Vanessa.

Would they're bond have been strong? Probably. They were together for two years, but Ashton said she manipulated him. And that is not that hard to believe.

I sigh and turn around again, facing the room.

I doubt what Ashton and I have is stronger than what Ashton and Vanessa had. I mean, If the circumstances were that bad with her than a little manipulating wouldn't have been enough... right?

I sigh again. I shouldn't think about this.

I curl up into his shirt that I'm wearing.
I trust Ashton.

I trust him....

The next morning I wake up in an empty bed.
I look around and frown.

Then I look at the time and my eyes widen.

10:24

I race out of bed, back into my clothes.
I run downstairs to the kitchen.

Ashton stands in the kitchen, sipping a glass of water.

"Good morning Cutie." He smiles.
"Ashton! We're too late for school let's go!" I take his glass of water, down it and pull him with me to the door.

"Cutie wait. I called us in sick. We don't have to go." He laughs and sneaks his free arm around my waist.

"What?" I turn around to face him.
"We don't have to go today." He smirks and gives me a kiss.

I smirk back.
"So we have the whole house to ourselves?" I smirk.

"Hmhm." He nods his head and gives me another kiss.

I let go of his arm and pull myself out of his grip.

"Well... I need to change clothes anyway." I open his front door and leave.

I hear him mumble something under his breath just before I close his door.

I smirk and walk to my house.

I change into some grey sweats and a dark red hoodie before walking back.

When I come back I see Ashton laying on the couch, eyes closed.

"I'm back." I poke his cheek.
He doesn't react.

"Asssshhhhtooonnnn." I whine.
I kiss his lips.

"I know you're not asleep." I whisper as I roll my eyes.

I get an idea and smirk.

I slowly pull down the black sweats that he was wearing, along with his boxers.

I take his member in my hands and teasingly go up and down a few times.

When I don't get a reaction, I put my lips around the tip and suck softly.

"Ashton.." I giggle, blowing are around his tip.

I still don't get a reaction and roll my eyes.

I put my lips back at his tip and suck harder, letting my tongue go around his slit.

I bob my head a few times before getting back to his tip.

Suddenly I hear him mutter something under his breath and jump up.

"I knew you were awake!" I yell.

He opens his eyes and smirks at me.
"But if you do that every time you think I'm asleep then I'll be pretending that I'm asleep every morning." He shrugs.

I roll my eyes again and walk to the kitchen.

"Hey! It's rude to not finish people off!" He yells after me.

"You can finish off yourself just fine!" I yell back.

I make myself some breakfast and grab a glass of water.
"I see you feel at home." Ashton stands behind me.

"Very at home." I smirk and turn my head so I can peck his lips.
"So... what's today's plan?"

"I don't know. What do you want to do?" I reply as I shrug and take a bit of my sandwich.

"We can.... go to the beach? Or to the... park? Or to the.... mall? Or the cinema? Whatever you want is fine with me." He shrugs and I turn around to face him.

"Well, I don't know... I don't really feel like going anywhere to be honest." I wrinkle my nose.

He chuckles and shakes his head.
"I'm so happy that you said that." He mumbles as he kisses my forehead.

"Movie & cuddle?" He suggests.
I nod my head and smile.

We pick a movie and lay down on the couch with some popcorn.
I lay my head on his chest and Ashton lays his arm around me.

Halfway through the second movie Ashton gets a call.
"Hello?" He picks up, not bothering to get of the couch.

I smile. Knowing he feels comfortable picking up his phone without walking away to another room makes me feel trusted.

I see him roll his eyes and I frown.
"Yeah, fine. I'll be right there." He sighs.

He hangs up and looks at me.
"What's wrong?" I ask.

"That was Lauren. I gotta pick up her and Vanessa because Vanessa didn't feel well." He sighs.

"But you're not their taxi." I mumble.
"But Lauren stays my sister."

"I wasn't talking about Lauren." I mutter under my breath as he stands up to put on his jacket.

"I'll be right back." He pecks my lips and leaves.

"Yeah.. have fun.." I roll my eyes.

So I finish the second movie and still no Ashton.

After third movie finished I decided to go home, figuring it would take a while before Ashton would get back.

I roll my eyes, getting pissed off.
Why would it take him so long to pick up two girls?

The school is 10 minutes away by car.

I send him a text letting him know that I went home.

I open the front door of my house and see Mike standing in the hallway doing some shit on his phone.

"Michael." I say.
He looks up.
"Sister dear." He smiles back.

"Where were you?" He asks.
"At Ashton's. I stayed over and he called us in sick today. We decided to have a movie day but halfway through the second movie he had to go get Lauren and Vanessa because Vanessa is 'sick'. After the third movie he still wasn't back and I went home." I explain.

"And you don't know where he is?" Mike asks.
"Nope." I shake my head. "I sent him a text saying that I went home." I add.

"Okay.. Oh yeah, I almost forgot to tell you but you should call Nikki." He smirks.
"Why?"

"I don't know, she texted me to ask you to call her."
I nod my head slowly.

"Will do." I say as I make my way up to my room.

I close my bedroom door and call Nikki immediately.
After a few second she picks up.

"Nikki, Mike told me to call-"
"Yeah, I know I know I need to tell you something." She cuts me off.

"Okay, tell me."
"Do you know where Ashton is?" She asks.

"Uhh no.. well, he went to get Vanessa and Lauren.." And I explain her the whole story that happened today.

"Well, I just saw him with Vanessa..." She says when I'm finished.
"Where?"

"At the mall."
"Okay.. so..?"

"May.... they were holding hands." She mumbles.

"...and I'm sure that there is a logical explanation for that." I say after a couple of seconds.

"Maybe." She says.
"Look, I'll ask Ashton when he comes back okay?" I roll my eyes.

"Okay, if that's enough for you. Well, that was what I wanted to tell you. I thought you should know." She says.

"Thank you for telling me. You're the best, but I gotta go. Loveyou bye." I hang up the phone before she can say something back.

At the mall. Holding hands.
I sigh as I lay down onto my bed.

There's a logical explanation for that.... I'm sure there is.

Notes

Okay. So me has a important question for y'all.



I couldn't log in last week. And I mean the entire week.
it gave me an error.

& because this happened a lot lately I wanted to ask something.

Do you mind if I put my fanfics on AO3 (Archive Of Our Own) & continue them there
(which means DISCONTINUING them on this site)?


*If u don't know AO3 (shame on you): It's a website like this only a lot bigger and with all kinds of stories (not only fanfiction). U can get a free account on there too only it could take a couple days bc they need to send you an invite. (My acc on there is Just_Another_Reject)
