Ashton and I are just talking about random things, when Stella runs into my room with a scared look on her face.
''What is it?'' I frown and look at her, confused. ''Is there someting wrong, Stella?''
She bites on her lip and takes a deep breath. ''Just promise me you won't freak out.''
''I won't, I guess?''
''Stella, just tell us what you saw or know.'' Ashton interrups her.
''Okay, okay.'' She looks at me and sits down on my bed. ''So, you know the whole kissing Jay thing?''
''Ugh, don't remind me of it.'' Ashton looks at Stella with disgust. ''He's a total freak. I hate him.''
''We know you hate him, but you've got to see this anyway.'' Stella grabs her phone and shows me a picture.
As soon as I see the picture, my heart drops. ''No, no..''
Anonymous, are you kidding me? Jay probably sent the photo to 'melissaanews' himself. He's crazy enough to do it. We all know it.
Ashton looks at me and shakes his head. ''Okay, I want to see it.'' He says. He grabs Stella's phone and looks at it. ''Oh, fuck man.''
''Yeah, fuck.'' Stella sighs. ''So, what are you going to do about it?''
''Nothing.'' Ashton says.
Stella and I both look confused at him. ''Nothing?'' We both say.
''Yeah, nothing. It's just a leaked photo. Everybody will forget it, we will act like nothing happened. No big deal.''
''No big deal?'' I laugh cynical. ''Everybody will know it, Ashton. It really is a big deal. I messed up and now the whole world knows it. Fans will despise me, will hate me. News page will eat it up.''
He sighs and grabs my hands. ''Look, it was a mistake. We all know it and I'm not blaming you anymore. Everybody made mistakes, they are in the past, and sometimes they show up when you really don't want the world to see it. That's one of the perks of being famous. But you've got to be stronger than that, you've got to show them how amazing you are. They will forget it after a while and see the real you. Fans who really care about me, respect my decisions, respect who I date. Some fans will burn you to the ground, but you've got to show them you are better than that. You are Melissa, you are you and no one else. I love you and you know that.'' He kisses my hand and strokes my hair behind my ear.
My eyes are starting to become watery, but I smile anyway. ''You're so sweet Ashton, how did I deserve you? You're the best.''
He laughs at me and plants a kiss on my forehead. ''I ask myself the same thing everyday, but the other way around. How did I deserve you?''
