Him? Really?

Love....and Ashton?

Alex's P.O.V

Well, this is great. I have the worst class first. Why do I have history first? I suck at remembering anything other than song lyrics and how to make my favorite foods. I barely remember my locker combination, resulting in me leaving it unlocked and always getting butterflied.
My favorite subject is, of course, English. I love writing. It's my release. English is my last class of the day, so I guess it will make any day better. I can always end on a good note.

*end of the day*

Finally. English.
I walk in and see my favorite teacher, Mr. Tean. He understands my writing and why I need it so much. He is also the only one at the school that knows about my song. Not even my best friend, Emily, knows about them. If I ever have writers block, he's the one to go to. The only thing is, he is young and all the girls always have goodly eyes for him, so when I go to him, they all think things. Ridiculous seeing as they all go for "extra help" when really they just flirt.
When I walk in, I see him and can't help but be excited. I sit in the back of the class, so I can write and not get in trouble. Of course, tho, it is also where all of the trouble makers are. There are even some of those in this class, even tho it is an AP course. Our seats are in doubles, and who other than Ashton Irwin sits next to me. And on the other side of me in the next pair of desks, is his friend Calum Hood. Great. Why couldn't they be each other's partners? God. This should be fun.
I hear a little turn from Ashton's chair and see him turn to me. "So, how about you let me take you some where sometime, as a sorry for taking your spot this morning and causing you trouble?" I look at him in shock. Ashton Irwin? Asking me out? It's not surprising because of him being popular or anything, but because I thought he hated me. And because I hated him. I look him in the eye, and as nicely as I can with all the acid in my voice, I say to him" I'd rather not, seeing as if I do, you might just not make it out of the cafe we would go to".

He looks at me with that dumb side grin, and before he says what he was going to say, Mr. Tean clears his throat and introduces himself to the class, says the expectations for this year and all of the crap teachers say on the first day. He also goes over our project that will take the year and will be our biggest grade. "For this project, you will be doing something I haven't done before. You will be writing something with a partner. A love song".

A love song? Really? He looks at me with eyes of knowing. I know he's wanted me to share my music more, but really? It has to be a project?

"I will be letting you all choose your own partners. I will give you today and tomorrow to choose. If anyone has anyone they know they want now, they and can say them now. Yes Mr. Irwin?"

I look over at Ashton to see him raising his hand, and say "Yes I know who I would like". I would never believe who he chose. Why. Why does he do this.

"And who would that be Mr. Irwin?"
With a side sly grin, he replies "the future Mrs. Irwin, Alex Hughs".

Kill me now.

Please if any person is ready this. Tell me how I'm doing! I did one story before this and hated it, so I thought I'd try this. Any comments will be welcomed. Comment on this or message me I do not care, I just NEED to know. Thanks!
