Ashton: to where?
You: I don't know.. *starts walking*
Ashton: so, what do you do when this happens?
You: I just do nothing. And besides... My family don't want me because I'm not good enough for them.
Ashton: come on. That's not true.
You: we've only just met like an hour ago.
Ashton: okay.
You: trust me. No one cares about me.
Ashton: hello?! I'm right here.
You: I know.. You're the first ever person to care for me. Thank you..
Ashton: so what are you intending to do next?
You: it doesn't matter.
Ashton: it does matter!
You: I'm homeless now.
Ashton: how old are you?
You: 18.

You: well I guess you can drop me off over there by the bridge...
Ashton: what for? *is confused*
You: there's a lovely spot for me to rest and a shelter.
Ashton: no. You're staying with me.
You: no it's too much. I can't.
Ashton: I live alone and there are like 2 extra rooms.
You: oh. But I can't. Thanks though..
Ashton: please Y/N? *begs*
You: no. I can't use you like that and we only just met not long ago. *sighs*
Ashton: I never said that you're using me. I offered.
You: a-alright.
Ashton: then it's settled. *gets excited and drives to his place*
You: thanks Ashton. This is the nicest thing that anyone has ever done for me.
Ashton: what?! Really? *tears up*
You: well yeah. Brody and Ashley treats me like I'm invisible and that I'm a disgrace and my parents often disowns me whenever they feel like it or want to.
Ashton: what about Sasha??
You: Sasha?? Sasha and I don't even talk at all. Or even look at each other.
Ashton: I am so sorry. *starts crying*
You: oh.. *rubs his back and comforts him*
Ashton: I grew up without a dad.. He left when I was really young.
You: I'm sorry. *hugs him*
Ashton: so none of your family have any clue about your scars?!
You: nope.. *scratches it*
Ashton: well don't scratch it! It'll get infected.
You: who cares anyway? *sobs*
Ashton: hey. Go take a shower. It's been a long day today..
You: alright. *grabs your stuff and goes to the bathroom to shower*
Ashton: *grabs the first aid kit*
*15 minutes later*
You: oh my god... This shit hurts!
Ashton: did you wet it?
You: yeah.. It numbs my pain and misery.
Ashton: sit down.
You: okay.. *sits on to the couch*
Ashton: this may sting a little... *cleans up your wound and disinfects it*
You: ow!!!
Ashton: hang on... *finishes and bandages it*
You: thanks..
Ashton: wrists are meant for bracelets and wristbands. Don't ever hurt yourself ever again.. *hugs you*
You: I'll remember that. Thanks. *looks down*
Ashton: and, you're staying with me from now on.
You: I can't.. I don't like using people.
Ashton: Y/N, you live with me from now on. You're my roommate. *smiles*
You: but I don't have any money to pay for the rent.
Ashton: you don't have to. If you really feel bad, you can pay me by not hurting yourself.
You: o-okay... *smiles*
Ashton: so what do you wanna do now?
You: I have no idea... *sighs*
Ashton: okay, we'll wait till your arms get better before I teach you how to play the guitar *smiles*
You: okay. *nods*
Ashton: but seriously though.. What is your job?
You: I told you before, I got lots of odd jobs.
Ashton: like??
You: I work part-time at this really cool restaurant, then I work part-time at the animal shelter because I've always love animals a lot...
Ashton: nice! *smiles*
You: that's basically it. I guess.
