"I like the summer rain

I like the sounds you make

We put the world away

We get so Disconnected"

"Okay? Well who is it then?"

"Its me" Ashton stood up from the sofa looking directly at me, his light hazel eyes making my knees feel weak and heart pumping faster. This has to be a dream.

"Ha! Next joke. someone pinch me, so i can wake up now?" looking around at the 5 pairs of eyes that were trained on me after my response. I noticed Chloe left the room,

probably to clean up that mess she made before it permanently stained mother's carpet.

"uhm. No this is not a joke Melanie, nor a dream. You will be marrying Ashton" My mum spoke after an awkward silence formed.

See its not like I mind marrying Ashton. Like this is probably every 5sos girl's dream, to marry her favourite. But the fact that it's happening to me. Like Me

The awkward shy girl, who isnt skinny, who is awkward infront of people she doesn't know, who needs make up to feel comfortable when with others, who doesn't like wearing loads of reveling clothes as she doesn't have the body to pull it off with.

In other words. Me

Yet here i am. Getting told that I will be marring Ashton Irwin and I am a-okay with that. But is Ashton? since he knows what i look like... Will he want to go through with it all? Will I want to go through with it all? I know more about him than he does with me.

Oh god, I'm scared now.

"I will take that facial expression as a yes, now would you boys like to go into the games room? There is fifa or black ops? Not sure what you like to do for the time being as you wait for lunch to be served" mother stood up with her empty tea cup. Pointing to the games room down the hall

"Thanks Mrs Mae"

"Can we have your wifi password please?" Luke and Michael spoke at the same time

"Michael you can't ask that," Calum hit him on the arm while Michael just shrugged it off

"Haha yes,  I know about all this wifi things these days. Everyone needs it these days. What happened to a good ol' book...anyway the wifi box is in the games room. The password should be on that" Mum answered describing where it was

They gave her a thumbs up and said thanks, walking out of the living room and down the hall, while my mum went the opposite way to the kitchen to start lunch

Looking away from the recent scene, i noticed Ashton was still seated on the sofa staring intently at me and my every move. I stood still with my right hand grabbing onto my left arm rubbing it awkwardly not knowing what to do next.

"Told you I would see you again. I always keep my promises" Ashton voice startled me as I made eye contact with the Australian boy

"Yes, looks like you did..." I trailed off not knowing what else to say

Suddenly Chloe came back into the room with some wipes and her phone playing the radio as she hummed along. Not noticing that there were still people in the room

"...shake it off, shake it - off..? Well this is awkward" Chloe was knelt on the floor trying to scrub away the forming stain, but stopped when she saw me and Ashton looking at her
