Chapter 5 (Confused Ashton)

A S H T O N
I woke up at about 7 in the morning.  The boys and I had to go to the studio and Bryana was going to take Ella out shopping.  I got out of bed and walked out into the hallway.  Nobody else seemed to be up.  I walked to Ella's room so I could check on her, but when I opened the door, she wasn't there.  I decided maybe she was in the bathroom or something and continued to walk to the boys rooms and wake them up.  When I reached Luke's room and opened the door I found Ella snuggled into Luke's chest as he played with her hair.  He looked up at me and blushed.  I stared in astonishment, and then a wave of anger washed over me causing me to storm out the room and slam the door behind me.  Luke followed behind me in less than a minute.  I turned around to face him.
"what the hell was that?!" I asked him.
His face fell and he looked at me with sad eyes.
"Well, It was like 2 in the morning and Ella came pounding on my door and when I opened it she was crying.  I was just trying to comfort her..." He trailed off.
"There better have not been any funny business" I growled.
Luke nodded and went back into his room.  I had a quick chat with Bryana about what happened before I went downstairs to find Calum and Michael making breakfast.
"Erm- are you guys okay? You've never even tried to make breakfast before." I chuckled.  They looked round at me.
"We decided since it was Ella's first night here-" Calum started.
"We wanted to make her breakfast." Michael finished with a smile. 
"M'kay.  Just don't like, burn anything."
They laughed in response.

I didn't quite expect Ashton to barge into my room this morning.  So when he did I was a little shocked.  He seemed pissed though and told me to back off Ella.  I wasn't trying to make it look like something bad happened, but I was just comforting her.  Ash was just being too over protective.  I guess that's normal for parenting.  When I walked back in, Ella was sat up, both her eyebrows furrowed in confusion.  She looked at me with a questioning look.
"Um-erm it's just that Ash thinks you should, erm, get ready."  I managed to stutter out before walking into the bathroom.  I looked in the mirror in my bathroom and saw a red blush had crept over my cheeks.  I sighed and grabbed towels from the closet for my shower.  I got in and mulled over what had happened this morning.  I guess it did look a little weird for me to be cuddling with a girl that just moved in, but Ash would just have to deal.  Because she would be mine whether he liked it or not.

I woke up to hear Ashton and Luke arguing over something just outside my door- wait this wasn't my room, it was someone else's.  Then it hit me what happens last night.  The recurring nightmare I've been having, made itself known last night, and I ran to Luke's room crying.  I didn't remember much from there but I must've fallen asleep in here.  It went quiet outside for a second, and then Luke came in.  He ran his hand through his quiff in a stressed manner.  I looked at him confused.  He stuttered something about how Ashton wanted me to start getting ready.  He blushed a deep red and I heard him sigh in the bathroom.  I rolled out of the bed and started walking to my room.  I got in the shower and washed myself up.  I got out and blow dried my hair.  I then proceeded to put it into a high ponytail, with a black bow.  I walked out and looked through my closet deciding on wearing a pair of high waisted, ripped black skinny jeans and a white tank top with a flannel.  I threw on some black converse high tops and walked over to my vanity to start my makeup.  I had seen a few people do this a couple times and decided that until I saw more I would only put on mascara and lipstick.  I sprayed myself with this pink jasmine perfume and grabbed my phone to head downstairs.  As soon as I got to the bottom of the stairs, the wonderful scent of bacon and eggs filled my nose.  I walked in to the kitchen to find Michael and Calum whipping each other with towels next to the oven.  Ashton was sitting at the table and had a weird expression plastered on his face as he scrolled through something on his phone.  I rolled my eyes and grinned. 
"Morning Ella!" The three boys smiled at me.
I smiled back at them and started looking out the window.  It looked relatively nice outside.  I was actually pretty excited about today.

I had just finished putting on makeup when I heard shouting down the hall.  I walked out to see Luke storm into his room.  Ashton walked right past me to the stairs without a word. 
"Ashton!  What's the matter?" I called after him.  He turned back round and walked over to me.
"It's just- when I was looking for Ella this morning, I found her cuddling, asleep with Luke in his bed.  He said he was just trying to comfort her but I don't really know.  Did you see the way he acted after we took her in the house yesterday?"
I looked at Ashton to see genuine concern in his eyes.  I nodded.
"Well, look I wasn't there to see it but maybe he's not lying? I mean maybe just talk to him later once you've both cooled down yeah?" I tried to mediate the situation.
"Yeah.  I guess, I'm just worried you know? It's only her first day here."  He said.
"I know.  And your doing everything you can right now." I kissed him on the cheek and watched him make his way downstairs.  Seconds later Ella came out of Luke's room and walked into her own.  I stayed in mine and Ash's room for a little while until I smelled burning.  I hurried downstairs and into the kitchen to find Calum and Mikey messing about, leaving the eggs to burn.
"Stop it you idiots! Your letting the eggs burn!" I said and rushed over to take them off the burner.  They started laughing and mumbled out their apologies.  I started making plates for everyone and set them in front of each of them.  I took my own and sat next to Ella. 
"So Ella, I was thinking maybe we could go out shopping and spend some quality time together.  Would you be up to that?" I asked her intently.  She looked up at me and smiled and the nodded.
"That's great! I'm really excited for today!" I grinned back at her.
