This was it.

Recap: "Yes," I replied. "So, I guess what I'm asking is... Can Alyssa move in with us?"

*Ashton's p.o.v*
"Ash... I don't know..." My mum began
"Mum, please!" I cried
"I want her to, but we just don't have the space!" My mum said, exasperatedly
"But she's your own blood daughter, and my twin sister!" I yelled, getting quite annoyed
"Ash, I know, but how can we work it out?" My mum asked
"I'll sort it," I replied and pushed my chair away from the table and hurried upstairs.

I walked into my room and looked around. Thinking quickly, I worked out where the exact middle of my room was and made a line across the room, using random things I could find. I then stepped over the line and started clearing up, everything, literally EVERYTHING, and moved it over to the other side of the room. I sorted out my side, and cleared the other side of all my junk. I left the wardrobe on that side, but that was the only thing there. I looked at my clock and realised that it had taken me over two hours. Oopss... Oh well.

I walked back downstairs and found my mum sitting on the sofa, watching some movie with Lauren and Harry. Camp Rock, I think it was. Lauren seemed to be enjoying, singing along to all the songs, but Harry seemed kind of bored, bless him.
"Um, mum?" I said, leaning in the room
"Yeah?" My mum replied, looking up from the TV
"Can I show you something?" I asked
"Sure," my mum said, pulling herself off the sofa
I led her upstairs and showed her my bedroom.
"Ash... What is all this?" My mum asked
"I cleared half of my room, so Alyssa can come and live here!" I explained
"Ash, honey..." My mum said, welling up
"Mum, don't cry!" I said, putting my arm around her
"So... Can she move in?" I asked
"Well, we'd have to buy a new bed and we -" my mum began
"So, you're saying yes?!" I say excitedly
"Yeah," my mum replied, smiling at me
"Thank you, so much!" I cried, pulling her into a hug before calling Alyssa.

*Alyssa's p.o.v*
I was sat watching another episode of Friends (I am obsessed ok?) when my phone starting playing 'Last Night' by the Vamps. I looked down and saw Ashton's caller ID.
"Hello?" I answered
"Hey, guess what?!" Ashton sounded really excited
"What?" I asked, slightly confused about why he was so excited
"YOU CAN COME AND VISIT!" Ashton yelled
"Ashton, you know I can't, if I do I have no where to live!" I exclaimed
"But, you want to come, right?" Ashton asked
"More than anything in the world!" I cried
"Well, you can and... This is the best part - you can come and live with us!" Ashton practically screamed
"REALLY?" I yelled
"YES!!" Ashton yelled back
"Okay, I have to go, but I'll call you about details later, alright?" I said
"Oh wait!" Ashton said suddenly
"Yeah?" I asked
"We've sent a plane ticket over, it should be there in a couple of days. Even if you don't want to use it, you could still come visit, sometime in the future!" Ashton said
"Thank you, Ashton!" I replied
"No problem! And you can call me Ash if you want," He said
"I will do," I replied. "Bye, Ash,"
"Bye," Ashton replied
And with that, I hung up the phone

I hurried upstairs and started packing right away. To be honest, I had been hoping that Ashton was going to offer that, as I really wanted to go. The only thing holding me back was the fact I had no where to stay. I couldn't wait to leave; my dad clearly didn't care about my happiness if he was making me chose between him or my own twin. I half packed, deciding to leave the rest until tomorrow. Suddenly tired from the packing, I crawled into bed and fell asleep.

~Three days later~
I woke up and found a letter addressed to me on the door step. I recognised the writing as Ash's, considering it was the same as on the previous letter. My hands trembling, I tore open the envelope. There was a short letter from Ash, but my eyes were fixated on the ticket. I can't believe they really sent one, AND FIRST CLASS AT THAT! I had finished packing yesterday. This was it. I was really leaving.
