day four - frankie

on the fourth day, i went over to ashton's around lunch time. since our parents were making a big dinner, we decided to just hang out at his place. calum said he was coming over later, so it was just the two of us with our mums downstairs.

"'m tired," ashton mumbled as soon as i sat next to him on his bed. i laughed before laying on my side, watching as he rubbed his eyes and yawned.

"then sleep."

"i was up late last night," he added. i raised an eyebrow, and he continued. "cal and i were online playing this game."

i rolled my eyes. "i was wondering what he was screaming at. i almost thought he was watching porn."

ashton laughed loudly, and i smiled at the way his eyes squinted closed. he paused mid laugh, and stared back at me.

"what?" we asked at the same time.

"i'm tired." ashton repeated.

"then sleep," i said again.

"okay," he murmured. "cuddle me."

i chuckled as he scooted closer and wrapped an arm around my waist. i put mine over his, reaching up to tangle my hand in his hair. his hands felt cold on my skin as he rested them on my back just under my shirt.

ashton pulled me even tighter to him, burying his face into my shoulder. i leaned my head against his, closing my eyes and trying to fall asleep.

which proved difficult when ashton moved his hands downwards. i opened my eyes, pulling my head away from his to see a smile on his face, but his eyes still closed.

"dork," i said into his ear. i could hear his smirk. rolling my eyes, i ignored him and attempted sleep again.

until i felt ashton's lips on my neck, trailing kisses up to my jaw. my breath hitched as i felt him sucking at the skin gently, surely forming a light bruise.

"you fûcking asśhole." i hissed. "our parents will be downstairs."

"you can put makeup on it," ashton mumbled against my cheek. he kissed the corner of my mouth, before ducking back down and resting his head in the crook of my neck.

"i hate you." i stated. he chuckled, and i sighed loudly. "payback's a bïtch."

"sure." ashton hummed. his breathing became heavier, and after just a few moments, he was asleep.

i smiled fondly at the sleeping boy in my embrace. i pressed a kiss to his cheek before returning to my previously failed attempt to sleep.

-

"frankie."

i hummed, burying my face further into my pillow. i heard a chuckle, before realizing ashton wasn't my pillow, and pulling back quickly. my boyfriend grinned at me.

"sorry to wake you," he apologized. "but i have to go to the bathroom and i couldn't move."

"oh," i blushed. "sorry."

i unwrapped my arms from around him, pulling my legs from being tangled with his. ashton kissed my forehead before standing up and walking out the door.

i rolled over on my other side, reaching towards the foot of the bed to pull the blanket over my body. i was almost asleep when i heard the door creak open, and the bed dip down. the blanket was lightly pulled as ashton got under it.
