"Why are you walking so fast?" I groaned, trying to keep up with Ashton as he dragged me through the crowded hallway. It was only lunchtime, and I couldn't understand why Ashton was so eager to go eat.
"Would you rather that we slowed it down a little?" Ashton stopped walking and turned around, pulling me towards him. He put his hands on my waist and pressed me against his body, dipping his head down and connecting his lips to mine.
His lips were soft and warm against mine, moving slowly and making me feel as though time was freezing around us. Suddenly we were in a crowded hallway anymore, we were in our own little world. Our mouths molded together perfectly while his hands felt all over my body. It was like we were completely alone, away from everyone else. When I was with Ashton I was able to escape everything, I had no worries.
I pulled away from Ashton, giggling softly as he brushed a piece of hair out of my eyes. He pressed his forehead against mine, his breathing still heavy. We stayed staring at each other for at least a minute after that, still lost in nothing else but each other. It was funny, how strong of an affect we seemed to have on one another.
"Get a room, you two." Calum walked by, slapping Ashton on the back of his head. He waved to us both as he continued to walk down the hall, making his way to the lunchroom on his own.
"I can't believe we just did that in public." I laughed, taking a step back.
"It wasn't that bad." Ashton shrugged. He took my hands in his again, lacing and unlacing our fingers together.
"I feel like everyone was watching us." I bit my lip, glancing around the hallway. No one seemed to be staring at us, which I considered a good thing. Maybe Ashton and I actually were in our own little world and had gone by unnoticed.
"Let's just wait until later tonight." Ashton smiled at me, playfully wiggling his eyebrows.
"What's tonight?" I asked.
"We're going to do some cute romantic shit." Ashton decided, not asking for my consent. Of course I was totally fine with whatever "romantic shit" Ashton wanted to do, I was just surprised that he had chose to be so bold and spring it on me like this.
"Cute romantic shit?" I raised an eyebrow at him.
"Yeah. You said your parents wouldn't be home tonight..." Ashton's voice trailed off, like he didn't want to finish the sentence.
"So what are you implying?" I asked. Though I had an idea of what Ashton wanted to do tonight, I wanted to know what he really had planned. We could have had totally different ideas.
"You know.." He wiggled his eyebrows again, before he began to blush and take his stare away from me, now looking down at the floor.
"Ashton! You're such a boy!" I gasped, jokingly slapping him on the arm.
"I'm sorry!" He laughed, finally looking back up at me. "We don't have to make out the whole time, we can cuddle or something."
"'Or something'," I joked, using air quotes.
"We can go buy Mexican food." Ashton suggested. He knew that he could always win me over with that, Mexican food was probably the only thing I would never say no to.
"Alright, I'm sold." I nodded.
"Okay, Murphy. Prepare for a night of kissing, cuddling, and Mexican food." Ashton laughed.
"Oh, I'm prepared." I smirked up at Ashton, who had stepped even closer to me in the last few seconds. I was about to lean into him once more when something, or rather someone, caught my eye from down the hall.
