"C'mon, I'll drive you." He puts an arm around me and we walk to his car.

——————————————————————————————————

He drives me to my house and I search for my key. I open the door and we walk in.
"Mum?!" I yell.
"In the kitchen!" I hear her yell.
We walk to the kitchen and she looks at me.
"Hey sweetie, are you alright? Do you need anything? And who is this?" She smirks at Ashton.
"I'm fine, just not feeling well. No, I don't need anything, I'm just here to change my clothes. And this is Ashton." I glate at her, warning her to stop and don't ask any futher about Ashton.
"How come you never mentioned a guy named Ashton." She smirks.
"Because of this. I hate the way you're acting right now."
"So Ashton, are you interested in my daughter?"
"Mum!!"
"I'm very interested in your daughter Mrs. Conewell." I hear Ashton say behind me and I turn around to him.
I lift up my eyebrows and cross my arms.
"And for a fact, I know that she's interested in me too, sometimes more than she wants to admit." He crosses his arms too and looks at me smirking.
I sigh and turn back around. I see my mum wiggle her eyebrows and me and I sigh again.
I walk away to my room.

When I'm in my room, I walk to my closet. I dress in some black ripped jeans and a nirvana tank top.

When I'm totally done, I walk downstairs. I hear my mum and Ashton talk in the kitchen. I put my ear against the door so I can hear what their saying.


ASHTONS POV

I sit with Sierra's mum at the table. It's a Little awkward, but definitely less awkward than the conversations I have with my mum.
"So...." She says suddenly.
"Earlier you said that you're interested in Sierra... Are you really interested in her? I mean, do you like her?" She asks.
"Uhhh....." I begin, scratching my neck.
"Look, I know this is weird, to have this kind of conversation with me, but I'm just protected over my daughter..."
"Ma'am, I can assure you, I really, really, like Sierra, a lot. I would never hurt her on purpose."
She smiles at me and I return the smile. At that moment I hear the door crack open. I turn my head and see Sierra in the opening. She wears a nirvana tank top and ripped jeans. She's so hot in that...
She smiles lightly and I can see that she heard everything I said because she still has a little blush on her cheeks.
I stand up and walk to her.
"What's the time?" She asks trying to look over my shoulder.
"It's time for you to admit that you like me too." I whisper in her ear.
Again, I can she that she blushes.
"But it's 14:00, if you really need to know." I smirk.
"Then we need to be quick." She says while she takes my hand and leads me out of the door.
"Mum, we're going to school for Ashley!!" She yells at her mum.
"Okay, be safe."
We walk to my car and I help her get in. Then I jump in myself and we drive to school.

When we arrive she says
"Maybe you could better wait from a distance. I don't want you two fight, and definitely not about me."
"Whatever you want."
We wait until we see students walk out. She gets out of the car and I walk with her. I get over to Calum and Michael while she walks to Luke.
"Hey babe, what are you doing here? I thought you were sick?" I hear Luke ask and I get a little jealous. Maybe more than a little. I try to focus on Michael and Calum but I still hear what their saying.
"Luke, I need to talk to you, in private." She says while I see her take his hand.
"Okay, hey guys, I'm going, I'll see ya later." He says to us and then he follows Sierra.


SIERRAS POV

We walk away from them and when we're far enough, I stop.
"What's wrong?" He asks worried.
I take a deep breath.
"Luke, I'm sorry about this but...." I begin but he cuts me off.
"We're breaking up, aren't we?" He says looking at me.
I just nod my head.
"Sierra, you know, I want you to be happy, and if that's with Ashton, then I'm happy for you. Better him than someone I don't trust. Just remember, I'm always here for you as a friend, maybe more."
"I know Luke. Thank you so much." I kiss him one more time.
"How did you know it was Ashton?" I ask him.
"I saw it."
"Ow, well, I'm still thankful to you. Besties?" I smirk, holding up my pink.
"Besties." He laughs and laces his pink with mine.
I smile and we walk back. I see that Ashton looks nervous and Luke notice it too.
"Don't worry Ash, I'm not mad at ya, I'm happy for you two. But hurt her one time, and she'll be mine, okay?" Luke smiles but there's definitely some serious tone in his voice.
"Thanks man, I would never hurt her on purpose." Ashton smiles.

When we're back at Ashtons house he hug me from behind and nuzzles his head in my neck.
"I finally can call you mine." He whispers.
"Did you wait for that?" I ask.
He nods his head.
"A long time I've waited for that."
"Well, if you weren't so stupid to run to Madison, you could've call me yours earlier." I say.
"Really?"
I nod my head.
"Why didn't you tell me?" He asks.
"Why would I? I thought you were with Madison."
"Point taken."
"Good. Now, let's take care of you're arms." I say when I see his arms.
"You're really gonna help me?"
"Of course Ashton! I don't want you to hurt yourself!" I take his arms and lead him to his room.
"Blades." I say while I hold my hand open.
"What?"
"You're blades, give them to me." I say.
He walks away and I first thought he was going to reject, but the he comes back with several blades in his hands.
"Here." He says, laying the blades in my hands.
"Good, now, grab everything that reminds you of bad things that you don't wanna remember."
He looks at me in confusion but still grabs some stuff, including some photos. I look at them and see that Ashton is very young on that photo. He doesn't look happy. I think it's a yearbook picture.
"That was the day after they burned my jacket." He says while he points at the picture.
"Why would they do that?" I ask him.
He lifts his shoulders.
"I don't know, because I was different?"
"Okay.. Do you have a box somewhere?"
"A box?"
"Yeah, you know, they're mostly made of wood and...."
"I know what a box is, I just wanna know, why do we need a box?"
"You'll see" I smirk.
He looks around and find a little box in no time. It was a dark one but it was totally covered in glitter.
"My sister made that once, for my birthday." He explains the glitter.
"You have a sister?"
"And a brother."
"Why did I never see them?"
"because when you were here, they were on school."
"But not yesterday."
"They're mostly on their rooms, but I know for sure that they'll be home any minute." He says.
"Well, we need to do something else first. C'mon." With my free hand I take his hand and we walk out of his house.


We walk through the woods and then we finally reach the big tree. I smile and he looks again at me in confusion.


ASHTONS POV

I see her walk to the tree and she begins to search. What the hell is she doing? Just when I was about to ask her she finds a shovel. What the hell? She hands me my stuff. She graves a hole and when she's done she put my things in the little box. Then she hands it to me again.
"What the hell are you doing?" I ask her.
"Bury them." She says.
"Why-"
"Just do it!"
I sigh and walk to the hole under the big tree. I lay the box in it.
"This is stupid." I say while I bury the little box.

When it's all done I stand up and look at her.
"You're happy now?" I ask.
I still felt kinda relieved.
"Very happy." She says while she walks to me and puts her hands around my neck. She kisses me softly and I lay my hands on her lower back. She smiles and I deepened the kiss. We stand there, kissing, until she lets go.
"C'mon Ash, I want to meet your brother and sister." She takes my hand and we walk back to my house.
