CELESTE'S POV:

Caitlyn and Ashton have been acting so weird lately, and none of us knew why.

"Ashton, we all know this isn't you. Tell us what's going on," Luke demanded.

"Nothing's going on!" Ashton claimed.

"You're so predictable. We all know that you like Caitlyn," I waited for his answer.

"I don't!" he protested.

All four of us stared at Ashton, but all he did was stare back.

"I'm here!" a familiar voice yelled.

"Oh, look, it's Caitlyn," Michael smirked.

"You can shut the fuck up now," Ashton rolled his eyes.

When Caitlyn walked in, Ashton was the first to wrap her in a hug.

"Hey, Cait," Ashton smiled widely.

"Hi, Ash," Caitlyn returned the smile.

"Aw," the rest of us said in unison.

"Well, Calum and I are going out to pizza, if anyone wants to join," Michael announced.

"Celeste and I will go," Luke offered.

That left Ashton and Caitlyn to speak up.

"We'll just hang out here," Caitlyn declared.

"Have fun," I winked at them and followed Luke out the door.

CAITLYN'S POV:

Ashton and I were sitting on the couch, watching some dumb reality show, when he spoke up.

"Caitlyn, I think it's time I tell you something," he started.

"Go ahead," I said.

"I like you. A lot," he confessed.

I sat there, in complete and utter shock. He doesn't know how long I had been waiting to hear that, because I liked him too. A lot. Ever since the day I met him.

"Please say something, Caitlyn," he pleaded.

"I like you too, Ash," I mumbled.

His eyes went wide. "Really?"

"Yes," I nodded.

Out of happiness, I'm totally guessing though, he pulled me close and kissed me. As cliché as it sounds, it was the most perfect kiss. To me at least.

"Sorry I-"

"It's okay," I cut him off. He only smiled back.

He then pulled me on his lap and I cuddled up to him. What a perfect day, huh?

ASHTON'S POV:

I can't believe I did that. She must think I'm some freak now.

"Ashton?" Caitlyn looked up at me.

"Yeah?" I answered.

"I don't think you're some freak," she laughed.

Dang it, thought out loud again. I do that a lot.
