Dirty Little Secret

Prologue

I had heard stories about the crazy and impulsive boy named Ashton Irwin. From what my friends told me, he was bad news. It didn't help that my brother Calum was his best mate either. They warned me that if i ever found myself stuck in a situation with him, I should run and never look back. I presumed every girl at this lame ass party had heard the same warnings, they would be scared, even frightened to even make eye contact with the infamous Ashton Irwin. It was clear from his careless appearance that he lived on the wild side. I mean, ripped jeans and a baggy jumper, i could imagine my mums disapproving face. Little did I know they would surround him like a pack of wolves, all wishing he could give them a moment of affection, fighting for the place next to him after a drunken one night stand. Every girl fencing Ashton in was borderline perfect, each completely willing, which for him should be the ideal combination. So that begs the question, why was he staring at me? maybe its because he knows im related to Calum. Or maybe its because he recognizes the fact im a nobody whose controlled by her mum and totally inexperienced sexually. nope, its probably option one.
I would be lying if i said his gaze didn't affect me in the most obvious ways. Ashton knew this, he knew he was in control and he knew he had the power, no matter the situation. I noticed his friends were participating in heavy make up sessions, its oblivious to me as to why Calum would associate himself with these kinds of people.
The red cup I was holding was near enough empty, my friends promised me that this party would have endless supplies of booze and perhaps even boys. Right now i was running low on both. It seemed like everyone except me was having the time of their lives, living it up like there was no tomorrow.But of course not me. I was worrying about my looks, constantly shuffling on my feet, avoiding any social interaction and ignoring the frosty green eyes burning into me like a laser. A tempting, lust filled smirk was taunting me further. I bit my lip, concentrating on anything but the boy giving me the flirty wink. The girls at the party wore hardly nothing, their boobs were deliberately on show, while mine were tucked safely behind a fluffy black jumper.Their bums were exposed for prying eyes to see, while mine was hidden by my jeans. I guess i wasn't exactly a party kind of girl.
My heart thumped like a drum every time Ashton would run his hand through his curly hair, my stomach would do drops every time he would even look at me which unfortunately was often. The heat of the dancing bodies was getting to me as i was hit by a heat flush. With once last glance at Ashton , i escaped the room. I could have swore his eyes went wide as though he was scared of leaving me. Sophie, my best friend since middle school was wasted. By her side was two boys i was unfamiliar with, im guessing the same for her too. Its hard for me to see her this way. I've always seen her as my little sister, even though mine and her parents despise each other. quickly escaping the heat from the party i ran up the stairs as fast as i could. It was quite difficult with the intoxicated people lying on them.
the bed i was sitting on was really soft and bouncy. The inner kid in me wanted nothing more than to jump on the bed and mess up the beautiful assortment of pillows. The room as a whole was extremely clean. the fluffy carpet comforted my feet as i sat in deep thought. I'm still somewhat shocked that mum actually allowed me to come out tonight. On the other hand im not shocked because i lied and told her i was going to the library to study. Suddenly a knock at the door brings me out of my daze. I look around for a place to hide desperately. Unsuccessfully i sighed. "come in" I called weakly, hoping its Sophie. Once again i was in complete shock
