Chapter 23:

Jasmine’s POV:

“(YOUR NAME),” I squealed, almost screaming as I get up and run over to her and wrap her up in the biggest hug I could give anyone! The force from the hug nearly sends her on the floor, but she manages to sustain her balance. “Nice to see you too Jasmine,” she giggles as she hugs me back.

A few moments later, she pulls out from the hug and I immediately jump on Aston and hug him tightly as everyone is welcoming back (Your name) to the group. “Thank you so much for bringing her back!” I whisper excitedly to Aston as he grins at me “it’s alright... I’m actually proud of myself for finding her,” he chuckles as I smile “and you should be,” I giggle kissing his cheek, before walking back over to Marvin who grins at me when we watches me sit down next to him.

“So tell us! How did you find her?” Fay asks as though she is trying to get a story out the couple, “do you want to tell them?” He asks (Your name) as she sits down next to him and snuggles into his side, “I’m okay, you can tell them,” she giggles as Aston smiles and kisses the top of her head. “Oooo... What was that kiss about?” Marvin picks up as we all giggle and chuckle “nothing, just kissing my best friend on the top of her head,” “mm, you sure? It didn’t seem like ‘just a kiss’, it seemed be a little more than that,” Marvin tries to prize the truth out of him, even though it seems he already had. “What are you trying to assume?” Aston asks, confusion not being hidden from his voice “nothing, just that kiss seemed to have something to it,” Marvin says, “guys! I wanna hear the story,” Laura chips in, but does it nicely as the two lads look at each other, laugh and then fall silent as Aston begins to tell us the story of when he found her.

Laura’s POV:

“That was so adorable though,” Fay whispers to (Your name) as the lads have moved themselves into the kitchen, to leave the girls in the living room. Both rooms’ being chambers for each gender, so that they could have their own private talks. “What’d you mean?” (Your name) smiles “that he found you, took you back to your hotel room and then made love to you to make you feel better,” “I know, but it didn’t go that smoothly,” you sigh looking down at your fingers “what’d you mean?” Jasmine asks worried and confused, “let me explain,” she begins...

JB’s POV:

“...Then I made love to her,” Aston finishes telling us the story, as we all smirk. “You get laid so easily by that girl,” Oritsé chuckles as Aston grins “I know... I love it though, because she’s the girl I love and I love making love to her,” “how many times did you use the word ‘love’ in that sentence?” I chuckle as Aston shrugs, but chuckles along with me and the lads as he takes a sip of his beer.

“You had sex with a traitor!” A sudden female voice popped up from the living room door, for all of us lads to look at Fay and seem to be looking in Aston’s direction, but suddenly (Your name) comes running out of the living room and pulls Fay back into the living room. “What was that about?” Marvin asks a little confused, “well just before I got (Your name), I was doing a friend a favour and took her virginity... Having no idea that she was a part of Kevin’s crew,” he sighs, “ew dude! Why?” Oritsé asked a little horrified as Aston sighs “I have no- Hold on, she fucking told them!” Aston hisses and marches his way over to the living room “YOU FUCKING TOLD THEM,” he screams as all silence comes from the living room, “I- I-” “WHY DID YOU, I THOUGHT YOU SAID YOU WASN’T GOING TO SAY ANYTHING... YOU MADE A PROMISE,” Aston screams as well as marching into the living room, where the other three girls come running out and look horrified as loud cries come from inside the living room, making: me, Marvin and Oritsé run over and into the living room, to see Aston pinning (Your name) on the sofa and seemed to have a tight grip on her hair, as she tried to get him off her. “Aston, let her go!” I shout over to him, as it took the three JLS lads to prize Aston off her, but within moments we had. “YOU BITCH,” he screams as he shrugs us off him and glares at her, before swearing at her then pushing his way past us to head towards what seemed his garden.

The lads frown at each other as the girls creep their way back in and over to (Your name). “Are you okay?”Oritsé asks quietly, as (Your name) calms down and beings to stop crying as she nods “I’ll be fine,” “do you want us to drop you off home?” “I don’t have anything there,” “oh yeah!” “It’s fine... I’ll stay here,” “you sure?” Laura asks as Fay slowly begins to hide herself behind the lads, “Yeah I’m sure,” she smiles at us as we all smile back and begin to leave. As much as this was such an amazing night to have (Your name) back... It just shows how quickly anything can go downhill.

(Your name)’s POV:

The group left, leaving you shut in the dark by yourself. “Oh dear,” you frown as the whole house has seemed to have gone pitch black and without knowing where Aston is... Or what he could do, you soon became frightened to move. “He’s not going to do anything, he’s not going to do anything,” you mumble under your breath as you stand up from the sofa and begin to move your way out on the corridor to the bottom of the stairs.

Just as you got to the top of the stairs, the concertina slides shut with a noise, making you freeze and snap your head round to see Aston just coming back in from outside, before making himself a coffee afterwards, as he sighs. You on the other hand, didn’t know what to do so you just quietly crept your way down the corridor towards his bedroom, to get a change of clothes.

Quickly having a wash, and doing your bedtime routine, you carry your day clothes with you to the spare bedroom, but just as you get to his door. You realized he is already half way up the corridor coming towards his room. Managing to position yourself, you stood up right and quiet as possible as he opens his door, which blocks you from his view, but then... He shuts it, leaving you wide eyed and in the open being venerable, but you watch as he places his cup of coffee on his bedside table and fiddles about with the cover on his bed. He then makes his way over to his walk-in-wardrobe giving you a clear getaway.

Aston’s POV:

As I step out of my walk-in-wardrobe, I saw that my bedroom door was open which makes me become confused as I thought I had shut it. Brushing it off, I walked back to my door to shut it, although the spare room to have someone in there. “Hello?” I called over to the spare room, but the movement that came from in there stopped immediately. “Is someone in there?” I asked “no,” a female voice called back nervously, which made me chuckle. I knew who it was. “You sure no one is in there?” “Yes, completely sure Mr Merrygold, no one is in here,” she says the humour in her voice couldn’t be missed “then how come there’s a voice from in there?” “Because Mr Merrygold... You’re actually talking to yourself... You’re hearing voices, you’re going mad,” she bursts out laughing as I laughed along with her. “You sure Missy,” I reply back cheekily as I go over to the bedroom door and open it, to see no one in there. “Huh?” I ask bewildered, but she suddenly pops up from the other side of the bed with a big grin on her face “got ya,” she laughs as I chuckle “you actually did,” I laugh as she smiles, before standing up... The banter dying as she does so.

“Night Merrygold,” she smiles sweetly, but I frown which makes her frown back “what’s wrong?” She asks “I’m sorry for earlier... I don’t know what took over me to do that,” I frown even more, before stroking my left bicep as I look towards the floor, but I glance up to see her walking across the bed and over to me. I became surprised how she still had the guts to come close to me. “It’s fine... They asked and I answered, my fault for telling them,” she says quietly as she takes hold of my hands and kisses the knuckles on both of them, which makes me smile. “Yeah, but-” “Shh... Let’s just forget what happened and go to bed,” she smiles as I do “okay,” I said quietly, before snapping a quick kiss onto her lips, but she doesn’t allow me to pull away. Instead her hands connect to the back of my head keeping my lips on hers, “mm,” I mumble into the kiss as the kiss becomes deeper, but I didn’t notice that my hands had rested on her thighs and were now encouraging her to pick her up, which she gets the signal and jumps wrapping her legs around my waist as the kiss continued.

Carrying her back into my room, I place her gently in the middle of the bed as I made my position of being over her, and keeping this kiss that has gotten quite passionate by now. Although, I slow down the kiss and then turn them into pecks before pulling away, her smiling at me as I smile back, “I love you,” I whisper “I love you too,” she whispers back as I smile, “err... I’ve wanted to ask you something for quite a while now, and... I wanna keep this a secret from everyone because of you know... The history we’ve had ‘n’ all, but err...” I become extremely nervous “would you move in with me?” I ask quietly, as I wait for a response. Her emotion unreadable, but then a big grin breaks out on her face that makes me breathe out with relief “of course baby,” she giggles before placing her lips back onto mine, “but what about-” “Oh... We’re keeping that... That house has way too many memories for us to sell that house,” I state as she smiles and seems to agree with me, “but we’re not even a couple,” she smiles “yeah, and?” I say bluntly in reply “it seems kind of ironic,” she giggles, but I become confused. “How is it?” “Just couples tend to ‘move’ in with each other not friends-” “So, what? You want to be in a relationship with me?” “No... You’ve just got out of a marriage,” “yeah, but would you want to be in a relationship with me again?” “Yes, I would, but it’s up to you,” she says nervously as I smile, but I place my forehead onto hers “just give me time baby,” I whisper, as she looks at me with a shocked expression, but then she smiles sweetly “are you hinting something Mr Merrygold,” “oh yes baby... And I’m hinting something big,” I wink and speak seductively, as she grins and we begin to kiss passionately once again.

What could hold for us in the future now?
