**Ashley's P.O.V**
I few weeks went pass with nothing from Matty, not a call, not a text, not anything. I kinda assumed that he was busy with work and family, I had also read a headline that he was back with his Long-term girlfriend Gemma, so yea it made sense for him not to speak to me, I missed him though, way more than I should be missing him, I was focuses on my music and trying to figure who I wanted to be within the industry, I had been a bit zoned-out lately and me and Peder were in and one and off relationship.
I was walking in Central Park one day, it was winter and my now dyed blond hair was wrapping around my face in the wind, I noticed a bunch of school kids were walking around in a group, and guessing by their accents they were on a school trip from England, I wasn't trying to stalk them but my eyes landed on a boy a bit younger than my little brother, I sorta recognised him but in a weird way, he saw me looking so I looked away trying not to be creepy,
"Hey, Ashley, is it?" The boy stopped and shouted at me,
"Yea," I said slightly confused,
"Hey, you probably don't remember me, but I'm Louis, Louis Healy," he smiles and stops,
"Oh my god yea, your Matty's brother," I instantly remember,
"Yea, oh my god, he's gonna be so annoyed that I saw you," he laughs,
I laugh, "why?"
"He NEVER shuts up about you," I smile,
"It's bloody annoying," he says,
"Louis come on," a teacher yells,
"Well it was nice to see you," he says sticking his hand out like Matty,
I shook it, "yea ill tell Matty that I saw you ,"
I runs off,"me too, he's gonna be jealous,"
I'm left there standing for a moment processing what happened.
Later that evening I pluck up the courage to text Matty,
Me: Hey, I saw your brother in Central Park today.
He replies back almost instantly,
Matty: Yea I heard Louis has been boasting about it all day. So how have you been? x
Me: Pretty fine, wbu? x
Matty: Yea good, I've heard your song over here a few times. x
Me: Omg that's so weird it's in the Uk. x
Matty: Yea well what can I say, British people love good music, why Halsey? xx
Me: what do you mean? x
Matty: Why the name Halsey (I know the answer btw,) xx
Me: Um idk, it's a name of a subway station in Brooklyn and I like the name. xx
Matty: Wrong ;) xx
Me: no that's the reason, xx
Matty: I'm sure it is, but look at it more closely, xxx
Me: I am I don't get it xx
Matty: Halsey is an anagram of your first name Ashley. xx
Me: Holy shit, I never even noticed. xx
Matty: Well, you know me, I pick up on the most pointless details. xx
Me: It's not pointless, I knew I connected with the name for a reason, I just did know what. xx
Matty: I've missed you Ash xxx
Me: I've missed you too xxx
Matty: I bet I've missed you more xxx :)
Me: Nah, hey isn't it like really late in Uk, xx
Matty: It's like 1:02 in the morning,
Me: Do you have a show tomorrow,
Matty: No but I have interviews, shut I have one in 6 hours, xx
Me: Okay famous boy, I'm gonna let u sleep, xx
Matty: Your worth staying up for ;) xx
Me: Goodnight Matt, xx
Matty: It's actually Matty if we're gonna do this properly xxx
Me: Goodnight Matthew Healy xx
Matty: Goodnight babe xx
Babe? I thought, Worth staying up for? Missed me? I missed him so much, but why hasn't he texted me for weeks, it didn't make sense.
I sit back, calm down Ashley,why the hell was I getting so uptight about this, it was just another casual one night stand, why do I miss him so much, he said he missed me, was he lying, why would he lie.
This whole Matty thing was trying, so I went loutside the building of my apartment and lit a cigarette with one of the lighters that he lent me, I don't know which one, he gave me so many.
**Matty's P.O.V**
I put down my phone and sighed, why did I have such strong feelings for Ashley? Why didn't I have such strong feeling towards my own girlfriend? Did she feel the same way? Or did she love Peder more than anything like she's suppose to?
I was all too much for a mind to hand so I got some weed out of my bag and rolled up a joint, it's was 10 past 1 in the morning buy id isn't care, I needed relief, I close my eyes and let the deadly smoke drift in and out of my lungs casually, I was slowly getting to sleep when Gemma walked in,
"Hey Matty," he yelled climbing onto my lap she was clearly drunk,
"Hey," I grunted,
"Do u wanna do something fun?" She was trying to look seductive but she looked a mess,
"Uh I dunno, I'm kinda tired," I shrugged,
Her mood quickly changed, " Jesus, Matty your so boring," she climbed of me and look pissed off,
"I'm sorry Gem I'm just tired,"
She looked at the weed sticking out of my bag, "are you high?" She hates it when I get high,
"Ummm...." I huff
"God damn it Matty your always high, and u don't give a shit about me," she yells at me,
I look at her stone cold, I don't speak because I can't be bothered, she turns on her heels and speeds out the room, I'll talk to her in the morning.
I toss and turn all night and I can hear Ashley's voice in my mind, her laugh, it's like an angel, her smile lights up the world, I wanna see her so badly.
