Tonight, you and Domestic!Ashton were having a dinner party at your house, celebrating the boys being back from tour.  You heard the alarm clock go off next to you, and considering it was still dark out you figured Ashton was leaving for the studio. “What time is it? Do you have work today?” you mumbled as you felt your husband sit up and bring his legs to the edge of the bed. “5:47 AM. Not today, I just wanted to make the food for the party tonight since you always do it. Now go back to sleep, I’ll do everything.” He said kissing you on the forehead and pushing himself off the bed. “Are you sure? That’s a lot of food considering everyones coming.” you said, eyes still closed half asleep. “It won’t be that bad, I have the kids to help me, and I spent the week prepping, so enjoy your day off.” he said heading off towards the bathroom. Since Ashton wanted to make everything himself, you sure weren’t going to stop him.  Earlier in the week when he decided that he was going to make everything, you were worried. To say he was ambitious, would be an understatement. He had big plans: two different appetizers, a three course meal, and various dessert choices to finish off the night. ~~~~~ When you woke up at 10:30 you were excited to see what Ashton had gotten done in the 4 and a half hours you were sleeping. The moment you walked into the kitchen you smelled something rather questionable. “I burnt a steak” he said not turning around and continuing to mix some sort of batter next to the sink. “Is everything okay?” You asked peering at the, burnt-to-a-crisp, steak on the counter. “Yeah, I forgot about it when I was making the dip and I left it on the stove too long but I had extra so that ones cooking now.” He said pointing towards it. “Want any help?” You offered, standing next to the pile of uncut vegetables. “No. I have my sous chef” he stated before adding “Well, yeah, can you cut those into cubes for me? I don’t know where Avery went.” he looked at you with his eyebrows furrowed. “Sure” you replied as he gave you a small smile. When you were finished, he thanked you and kindly told you that he no longer needed your help, as Avery, his sous chef, had reappeared and you could go do whatever you wanted. Hours later, Ashton finally finished and came into the living room to join you on the couch. The food was all prepared and on platters in your kitchen just waiting to be served. “I am exhausted. I don’t know how you can do this every single day.” he sighed molding himself into you and the couch to get comfortable. “I don’t usually cook a meal that a restaurant would have trouble serving. Thank you for cooking though. I’m sure it’ll be delicious.” ~~~~~ 15 minutes later the doorbell rang and Ashton crumpled into a ball, too tired to host a dinner party. Only when you heard Michael yell, “OPEN UP IRWIN RESIDENCE!” did Ashton groan in exhaustion before getting up and inviting his friends into your house.

Dad!Ashton was exhausted. They had called him into the studio at 4 am because “we have to re-record the vocals Ash, it’ll take a few minutes and then you can go back home.” So like the responsible adult he was, he grabbed his phone, wallet, and keys, kissed you and 6-month-old, Alex goodbye, and headed out in the dark of night. Those few minutes turned into hours and hours. When Ashton arrived back in the driveway of your home, it was almost dark again. As he walked in he heard you talking to Alex in the kitchen. –lease just eat it Lex. I know your daddy doesn’t like green beans either, but can you please eat them?” you tried to reason. He didn’t understand you, there was no way he could understand you, he was half a year old. “I’m back” Ashton announced walking towards the kitchen table where you had Alex laying in a carrier. “Hi little guy.” he said kissing the top of Alex’s head and going over to take the food from you so you could focus on the dinner you were in the middle of making. “How was your day?” he asked pretending the spoon was an airplane and trying to feed Alex. “It was okay. We went to the market and then Lauren came over for a little while; it was nice to see her. How was yours?” you said not turning around and putting the pasta into the boiling water for your lasagne. “Long, tiring, i’m exhausted” he sighed making faces at your baby. “I can feed him, you go take a nap. Dinner will be ready in like an hour.” you replied smiling at your husband. The boys were finally on an extended break from tour for a while considering how many years they went without one. “It’s okay, I wanna spend time with you two. I want to be here with you.” He came behind you, wrapping his arms around your waist and resting his head on your shoulder.

Today was the day before Alex’s 4th birthday, and he, dad!Ashton, and the rest of the band, were having a boys day at the zoo.  The day started at 8 AM when Ashton woke up the little boy from under his dinosaur sheets. “Lex? Are you excited for today?” Ashton said getting Alex’s outfit for the day. Alex sat up, his tired, hazel eyes, barely open as he watched his father. He immediately perked up when he remembered what day it was, nodding and running towards the kitchen to eat the pre-birthday breakfast you were currently making for him.  You heard yelling from the front door, and exactly 30 seconds later, three 6-foot-something boys appeared in the doorway. “HAPPY ALMOST YOUR BIRTHDAY LEX!” Michael screamed, crouching down so they were at the same level. “Thanks Uncle Mikey!” He said running towards the red haired man and gave him a hug. “Uncle Lukey, can I sit on your shoulders so I can see from up high?” Alex asked after Michael had let go and went to eat some of the pancakes. “Of course you can little one.” Luke said ruffling his hair and giving him a hug. When Alex stood in front of Calum he looked up at his tanned uncle, reaching his arms up so he could be picked up. There was something about Calum, where children always wanted him to carry them and by now, he was used to it.  ~~~~~ After the zoo, Alex was exhausted. They had spent hours there, and when everyone got back to the Irwin house, they all crashed; taking care of a 4 year old had drained them. “Boys, are you staying for dinner?” You asked walking into the living room and finding them all over: the floor, the couch, the arm chair, everywhere. “Could we?” Luke mumbled from the couch, still half asleep. “Sure, and per Alex’s request, we’re having pizza.” You heard a sharp intake of breath and knew that Michael had woken up. “PIZZA?” both he and Alex shouted, scaring everyone awake.

The first friend you made at your new school was HighSchool!Ashton. On the first day you were assigned a buddy so you wouldn’t get lost, that buddy was Ashton. Along with being in most of the same classes, he was the friendliest person you’d ever met. He walked you to all your classes, even the ones he didn’t have with you, told you about the clubs the school offered, and even introduced you to his best friends, who would later bring you into their little group.  It was a typical day for Ashton to come to your house after school and do homework, considering it was the same as yours. “Can I borrow your copy of Othello? I forgot mine in my locker.” He asked from the corner of your room. Ashton was currently sitting in the nest of pillows and blankets piled next to the window. You on the other hand were sitting on your bed, leaning against the headboard typing away on your laptop, trying to finish the essay you needed to write for you history class. “Yeah, it’s in my bag. Which king was the Sun King? Louis XIV or Louis XIII” you didn’t look up from the screen, too focused on your paper. “14” he shouted from the hallway, probably getting something to eat. “Thanks” you shouted back. When he came back, you two went back to doing your work in silence, with the exception of an occasional comment or question. “I can’t do this anymore. I’m going to watch the movie” you looked up at him, eyebrows furrowed and the book now closed. It was also dark outside meaning that his mum would call him to come home for dinner, or he would eat with you. “I could use a break too. Wanna stay for pizza? We can watch the movie?” you offered grabbing your phone and pulling up the contact for the pizza place. “That sounds great.” he sighed smiling.

Wedding!Ashton - Planning When you came home from work and saw Ashton with an awkward smile next to what looked like a home cooked meal, you were afraid. You were even more afraid when the first words were, “I’m so sorry.”  “Why?” you put your back down and hung your coat in the closet before going towards him. “So…I was talking to my mum and she wants her friend’s daughter to come with you to look for a dress.” He pushed the plate of spaghetti closer to you, awkward smile never leaving his face. “And…the bad in that?” “She’s crazy. I think she’s in love with Calum because whenever he’s there she kind of just stares at him. Without talking.” You had never heard of this girl, surely she couldn’t be that bad. “Cal isn’t even coming, we’ll be fine.” you took a bite of the food before talking about each others day.  ~~~~~ “She was crazy.” You said as you stepped into the room. “You were a little off.” Ashton finally looked up from the sheet music laying on the coffee table before humming, signaling you to continue. “Not in love with Calum. In love with you, Ashton. She’s in love with you.” ~~~~~ When you had gotten to the shop she had pulled you off to the side and told you that it should be her marrying Ashton. It was extremely awkward, she was glaring at you the whole time and when you were about to leave, she reminded you, for the 14th time, that she was supposed to be Mrs. Irwin.  ~~~~~ “Oh, sorry. Is she coming to the wedding?” you gave him a look as if to say, “if you really want to..” “That’s settled then. Wait, but her brother’s nice, can we invite him?” Ashton asked wondering if you could invite one sibling and not the other.

PediatricsMajor!Ashton always loved kids, and even helped helped his mum raise his younger siblings. One of the things Ashton loved about kids was that they were honest, straight forward, and never afraid to say what they thought. Being an intern at the hospital was stressful but if it meant he could work with kids he’d power through. It was hard for both of you because he often worked into the morning only to come back right before you left for your classes. And even though you hardly saw each other you both made it work. On when Ashton wasn’t doing his service work at the hospital he would accompany you to all of your classes (even if he wasn’t supposed to) just to be with you. And on the first Saturday of every month you would have a date night. Whether it be a night in full of stories you hadn’t told each other yet, or a fancy dinner, or a night in just talking for hours. It was what he always looked forward to, it didn’t matter what happened in the past few weeks because getting to see his other half made him whole.

Your friend had told Domestic!Ashton a few months after you two started dating, told him how it only happens a few times a month. You would usually hide it around Ashton, or make excuses as to why you couldn’t go on your date. He was shocked, he never expected that about you, you were always full of joy. In fact, that was what initially drew him to you, your attitude and caring nature.  ~~~~~ He remembered going to your house one night when you two were supposed to have a date, but you had told him you had to stay home and take care of your mum, who had a cold. Weird, your mum’s car wasn’t in the driveway when he pulled up. He rung the doorbell a few times times, and when you didn’t answer he pulled out the key you had given him few weeks ago.  It was quiet in your house, the only sound coming from down the hall. Where your room was. He found you laying on your bed facing away from the door, under the covers, only soft music playing. “(Y/N)? It’s ashton, are you okay?” he asked, not knowing what you would say. When nothing came he tried the approach your friend suggested, “I know I can’t fix you, because theres nothing wrong, but I’m here for you.” He whispered. You shifted your body a little towards the edge of the bed, making room for him to sit, eyes never leaving the spot on the wall. You just wanted him to be present, he didn’t need to say anything, just be here. ~~~~~ Ashton could easily tell when you weren’t feeling well; it was like second nature to him. So one morning when you didn’t feel like getting out of bed he called in sick to work so he could be with you. It was currently noon and you still hadn’t moved, he was getting worried. “(Y/N)? I brought you some food.” he was standing in the doorway holding a tray with your favorite food on it. You didn’t answer, too caught up in your thoughts. He walked towards your side of the bed and crouched down so his face was level with yours. “You can talk to me you know.” he whispered as you nodded, only barely moving your head. And although it wasn’t much, it was a lot more of a response than the first one he had gotten years ago.

JournalismMajor!Ashton loved being the youngest buzzfeed Australia member. When he started there, he was in his third year at university. He honestly didn’t think that he would be one of the students chosen, but here he was, at the office when he wasn’t in class.  Along with writing articles, he loved eating weird foods from around the world, and getting drunk with his friends to play with puppies on camera.  He would often invite his best friends to be part of the videos too, because they often had funny things to say, or he would make them take part in the gross ones. They would always have fun though, making stupid comments that everyone enjoyed, or having the funniest reactions.
