Ashton's p.o.v

ー~ー~ー~ー

* next morning *

My eyes flutter opened. I looked around the room and Grace was nowhere to be seen. I decided to get up and look for her. As I was about to get up I have been pushed back down immedietly by the pretty young lady. "Ashton ! Didn't I tell you not to get up. " " But, I can't stay here forever, I need some fresh air Grace. " I sigh. She looked at me as If she found an idea. " Here let me help you, we'll go to starbucks, it's the nearest place " she helped me up. I didn't bother changing, I mean I was just wearing my sweats and a hood. It was neither hot nor cold. She was holding onto my arms while walking. I smiled at her and said, " I love you, you know you are my everything, right ? No matter what we go through I'll always be there for you, my love for you would end when the apples grow on a mango tree in the 30th of February, " I stopped to take a deep breath. " I will love you, forever and always."  I Looked at her and She smiled widely and embraced me into a hug. She was so fragile. " I will love you, too, Ashton, forever and always ". We stopped and I couldn't help but notice how beautiful her eyes were. I pecked her lips and then we completed walking. We reached Starbucks and she told me to have a seat and she'll order. I was staring at her and it was her turn to order now. She took a long time talking to the guy at the cashier but I just ignored it, till I saw her laughing at something that he said. I got up and stood beside her. I placed my arms around her waist and pulled her as close as I could. "Why did it take you so long ? " I whispered loud enough for her to hear me. " I was just talking to jason. " " jason ? " " Ashton he is my old friend, the one who gave me his number." She said. She got our drinks and lead me to our table. We both sat facing each other. " Ashton,..you look..pissed..?" She said in a questioning tone. " Pissed, Me, haha never why would I be pissed, oh I shouldn't be pissed but MY GIRLFRIEND WAS TALKING TO ANOTHER GUY AND HE WAS MAKING HER LAUG, I AM THE ONE WHO IS SUPPOSED TO MAKE HER LAUGH. " I yelled. She flinched and I sigh. " He is just my friend Ashton Goddammit ! " She yelled and ran right out of the door. I hope she's okay. I'm gonna go look for her
* Skipping  20 minutes *
I went looking for her but she was nowhere to be seen. There's only one place that I'm sure she'll be there. Near the ocean.

Grace's p.o.v
~♢~♢~♢~
I couldn't help but cry, yet I needed him. I really needed him. As time moved by, I felt the wind hit me. Before I can do anything his arms pulled me close. " I'm so sorry, you need to know that sometimes jealousy gets the best of me and - and I never meant to hurt you, I was afraid of losing you." He said. I looked at him and smiled, I said " I'm sorry I left you alone when you needed my help " I said with my head down. I felt ashamed, I felt cold.

He lifted up my head and stared into my eyes. " It's okay, we all need some time alone, I just wanna know if you are okay. " He said while smiling. I nodded and mumbled an " I'm fine ". He sighed and pulled me even closer. I was really done with life. I almost lost the only thing that kept me alive. Him. I got up from his grip. I walked up till I reached the shore. I felt like there's something inside of my chest bothering me. I found it hard to breathe. I tried to cry but no tears fell. I needed to scream, I needed to let it all out. I looked around and closed my eyes. I screamed to the top of my lungs. I was calling someone that I haven't seen in so long. The old me. I started screaming like a mad woman. I fell right to my knees and I felt as if something was kicking me. My past. I felt his hand on my shoulder. " Come on, Grace we need to get home, baby, You need to rest " he said but he looked upset. I took his hand and we headed home.

* skipping the ride home *

We both got into the lift and Ash. Burried his head into my neck. he looked like a little baby snuggling closer to me. I smiled at him but soon my smile faded when I realized that I know nothing about Ashton. Completely nothing. I must know about him. " You coming ? " I heard him giggle. I snapped back into reality and realized that I was alone in the lift and that he was already waiting at the apartment's door. " Sorry I just zoned out for a little while.." we both giggled at my stupidity. I helped him walk to the couch and I headed to the kitchen. A couple of minutes later our hot chocolate was done. It's like hot chocolate brings us together. I got two bars of chocolate and headed to the couch. Chocolate. Chocolate. Damn, chocolate is just so good. I helped Ashton drink his hot chocolate. I started the conversation, " Hey Ash. tell me about yourself, why do you live alone ? " I asked. " I, I-" he was abput to start but i cut him off. " "If you don't wanna talk about it, it is fine." " No ! No i wanna tell you, My mother and my siblings died in a car accident, My dad and I were the only survivors, We lived alone for about a year but my father couldn't take it anymore so he committed suicide..." he trailed off, " everything I have loved became everything I have lost , You are the only reason that I'm holding on right now, I need you more than anything in the whole wide worldhe said, acouple of tears rolling down his eyes. I pulled him in for a hug. I hate seeing him like that. It kills. He has done a lot for me, He was there to hug me and hold me when I was falling apart so I'll always be here for him. Forever and always. He changed his position and lied his head on my lap. His eyes faced mine, I slowly ran a hand through his soft locks. I stroked his cheeks and after a couple of minutes he fell asleep.
