Ashley had been… somewhat avoiding both Julian and Aubrey since the event in Julian’s trailer where he’d found about the kiss they’d shared. And sure, Julian was regretting it at the time, but he didn’t- Ashley knew Julian, he knew that it was… different with Aubrey, no matter how much he might try to protest that it wasn’t. Ashley knew that much and the not find out that there was someone else that Julian liked on top of it all?
He just- he’d needed space and time to breathe. And he’d taken it in the form of liberal avoidance of his two friends, a night out with Riley and being always busy whenever people came by his stall that he didn’t want to talk to. Sometimes it was done in the form of ducking down against the counter and hiding until the ‘danger’ had passed.
Perhaps that was cowardly, but he’d… he’d needed some space just to sort himself out. To make himself okay with whatever was going on with his friends. He felt like a pretty shit person because of it, but he couldn’t help it. He was only human, after all!
He had briefly considered trying his mother’s way of solving problems, but figured that was a little extreme considering. If Aubrey and Julian and this other person all hooked up and had some happily ever after thing, then perhaps he’d consider taking up drinking as a hobby, but not now. Nothing was worth him turning into his mother over. Nope.
But he’d been inside his trailer all day so far and needed to get outside, so he grabbed his deck chair and set it up outside his trailer, back to the world and feet propped up on the doorstep. He had headphones in his ears and was listening to McFly’s Lies, head and feet bopping in time to the music blasting through the headphones, alternating between playing the air guitar and the air drums, just… minding his own business and keeping to himself.
