Pairing : Ashton Irwin X Reader
The day started just like every other day had, you went to breakfast with Ashton, came back with a smile on your face, arm tucked into his. However, after your breakfast, things started to go a little different, started off as a little, but quickly turned into a lot.
Walking into the hotel today, you told Ashton to go ahead up to the suite you were sharing with the other guys while you talked to the check in desk for a quick question. On your way back to the suite after asking your question, Ashton no longer by your side, you noticed some talking. Sounded quite like Luke and Michael, so you quietly crept towards them, an evil smile adorning your face, they always liked to get jump scares out of you and now it was payback time. There were some giggles so you knew it was a happy conversation, but what you didn’t know was, that it was a conversation about you and Ashton and once you heard your name along with Ashton’s, you froze.
“Think he’s going to actually ask, (YN?” Luke asked.
Michael shook his head, another giggle escaping his lips. “I don’t know man, he loves her so I don’t see why he wouldn’t but it’s still a bit weird, don’t you think? One of us finally deciding to settle down? I never thought we’d see the day.”
Luke nodded in agreement. “I know what you mean, sometimes I forget how old we are and how things like that can start happening for us. I think that Ashton will ask (YN) though, he’s been saying he wants to marry her, kind of has to ask her first before they can actually get married, doesn’t he?”
The idea of sneaking up and spooking the two boys quickly vanished and in its place was the idea of you marrying Ashton. He actually wanted to marry you, you’d been thinking that things were going great for you guys, you’d been together for a couple of years, but you never knew just how great things were going. Instantly your cheeks began to feel warm, your lips forming a wide smile that made your face hurt. The man you were in love with wanted to marry you and that just made you feel the butterflies flying through your veins and then you knew, you knew then that you wanted to marry Ashton.
As you thought about that, another realization hit you that had your back hitting the wall, sinking down low until you sat on the floor. If what you overheard Luke and Michael talking about was true, that meant that you knew Ashton wanted to marry you, but what if they had misunderstood Ashton, what if Ashton didn’t want to marry you, what if he’d said it as a joke. A trickle of sadness began to drown out the butterflies.
“(YN)?” The one voice that you had fallen in love with spoke to you, snapping you out of your thoughts. “What are you doing down there?” He asked with a laugh and helped you stand on your feet. “Are you alright?”
Snapping out of your haze, you looked up into his eyes, they were sparkling with love, happiness, confusion, and what looked quite like nervousness. Maybe Luke and Michael did hear Ashton correctly. “Yeah, I’m good. Just lost in thought I guess?”
At the sound of your name, Luke and Michael both turned and seeing where you were and Ashton helping you up had them sharing a look of shock and worry, what if you’d overheard them. What if you knew the secret that Ashton had wanted them to keep.
“What were you thinking about?” He lead you from the wall and over to a couch that was across from where Luke and Michael were now following you with stares, you met them and they both gave you a look, silently asking if you’d overheard them, you let your gaze travel back to Ashton. “Anything good?”
“If it’s what I think it is, then yeah.” You responded, still a little out of it.
Ashton could only shake his head at you as he kissed the top of your head, his familiar giggle coming out. “Well, it looks like you want to go back to your thoughts, so I’ll leave you be.” He then started a conversation with Calum who’d just entered the room.
Every once in a while, you’d glance up and catch the stare of one of the boys across from you, they just wanted to know if they’d been caught, you refused to keep eye contact though, which you knew practically gave yourself away to them. Finally, Luke had enough and stood as he looked at you. “(YN), can I get your help with something?”
Your eyes finally met his and you were about to say no when the look in his eyes alone had you following him out of the room. Outside of the suite, Luke shut the door and crossed his arms, eyes on you.
“Did you hear what Michael and I were talking about? We never heard you come in and when Ashton came in, we noticed where you were. We never talk quiet, so yeah, did you hear?”
There was no point in denying it and you shuffled your feet as you stuffed your hands into the back pockets of your jeans. “What if I did, Luke? Were you guys telling the truth?”
He ran a hand through his hair. “(YN), I really don’t want to ruin this for him.”
“Yes or no question, Luke.”
A loud sigh escaped him. “Yes.” That one word had you lighting up like a Christmas tree again, your hands flew out of your pockets and you enveloped Luke in a surprise hug. His arms were a little slow to return the hug, but he managed. “Please try not to let him know that you know. If he finds out, Michael and I will both be dead.”
You released him from the hug and smiled at him. “I will try, but if he does find out, I promise I won’t let him kill either of you. I happen to like you guys and want you to stay around.”
Luke laughed in relief and opened the door behind him, motioning for you to go first. “I am happy for you guys.”
You went inside and resumed your place by Ashton who had grabbed a notebook and began writing down some lyrics, as you sat he handed the notebook over. “What do you think?” His voice was low, trying so only you would hear. “It’s for you.”
There was nothing Ashton could do that wouldn’t make you fall in love with him deeper and deeper. The lyrics he’d scratched onto the paper, shone like a star, the most beautiful lyrics you’d ever read before. As you read them, you glanced to the top of the sheet and saw that he’d written a song title as well. You could see him eyeing you as you read the words. ‘(YN)’s Song’.
“I love it.” You say, tears starting to prick at your eyes, but you quickly wiped them away. “Thank you. It’s beautiful, you didn’t have to though.”
He nodded as he took the notebook back. “I know, but I love you and want to keep showing you, make sure you never forget.”
Luke and Michael’s conversation came back to you and you looked at Ashton in a new light. Everything about him stood out more to you. His beautiful voice, gorgeous eyes, soft hair you enjoyed running your fingers through, his skin tone, his muscles, everything about him.
“Come with me.” You said suddenly, grabbing his hand and guiding him to the shared bedroom you two were enjoying. Three sets of eyes followed you out of the room, two sets knowing, the third was full of confusion at your abruptness.
Ashton said nothing until you’d closed the door behind you, his hands instantly on your hips, eyes searching yours for any sign that he’d crossed a line or something. “Everything alright, baby? You have a look in your eyes, I can’t place it. Are we good?”
“Yeah, we’re good Ash, there’s just something that I need to ask you.”
You pushed him towards the bed and sat on his lap, your arms around his neck, playing with the hairs that rested there. “I probably shouldn’t ask, Luke just asked that I don’t, but I need to know. I can’t just keep this inside of me anymore.”
“Keep what?” Ashton was growing more and more confused as you spoke.
“It started when we came back from breakfast this morning, I came into the suite without you and heard Luke and Michael talking.” You said quietly. “There were talking about, me and you and I wanted to know if what they were saying was true or not. I didn’t want to get my hopes up but I can’t exactly get them to go down either.”
Ashton listened closely as you spoke, anger never once flickering past his eyes. He only grinned. “If you ever need a secret kept, don’t go to those two. They really are the worst at keeping them.”
“Luke said they were speaking the truth. Were they?”
Ashton didn’t reply right away, instead he lifted you off of him and placed you onto the bed beside him as he walked over to his suitcase and after rummaging for a second, he came back to you and knelt in front of you. “They were. I didn’t want you to find out from them, I wanted this to be a complete surprise but now that that’s gone, I’m just gonna go for it.” He paused as he pulled out the most gorgeous ring you’d ever seen, a ring you thought could only be had by royalty, a smug smile tilted his lips at your reaction, just as he’d expected. “(YN) (YLN), I thought love at first sight was a lie until I met you and knew then that it was the truth. I fell for you the moment I laid eyes on you, knew then that you were the woman I wanted to marry. I promise to always love you and make sure you know how loved you are. (YN), will you marry me?” His hazel eyes sparkled as he spoke and you’d never seen him look as handsome as he did then.
Even after hearing the earlier conversation and knowing that Ashton was going to ask you to marry him, the fact that he was down on a knee and actually asking you, it still felt like the biggest shock in your life. He really was asking you to marry him and currently was waiting for your reply. Staring into his eyes with eyes full of love, you nodded your head. “Yes!”
It only took one word for Ashton to place the ring on your finger, his lips soon finding yours for what was probably the most passion-filled kiss that the two of you had shared your entire relationship. The others were all just preparing you for this moment. This kiss was the truest sentiment of your love of Ashton and his love of you.
When it ended and you both pulled back for breath, you couldn’t help the giggles. “That was nice.”
“Yeah,” he whispered, “it was. Do you want to go out there and show the guys? Let them know that you’re sticking around forever even though I think they already knew that you were.”
“Only if you don’t kill Luke and Michael for accidently letting me know. I told Luke I’d try not to let you kill them, that I kind of like them.”
Ashton stood, the smile that seemed it would never leave his face stared back down at you. “I won’t kill them, I know they mean well.” With his help, you stood at his side, he pulled you as close to his side as he could. “After all, they were the ones that got me to go and talk to you. Can’t kill the guys responsible for bringing you into my life.”
Your cheeks felt warm again as you smiled at your fiancé. “I can’t wait to marry you.”
“She said yes?” you heard yells from outside the door and then a bunch of ‘shut up’s’ and ‘dumbass’.
Releasing yourself from Ashton you opened the door and saw Luke, Michael and Calum all grinning back at you. They knew they were caught but to be frank about it, they didn’t care.
Ashton came up behind you and held your left hand up and kissed the ring that now rested upon your ring finger. “Yup, she’s mine forever.”
“Good,” Luke laughed as he helped Calum and Michael stand. “We kind of like her.”
