Rosemary Holmes

"Um never mind" I walk away awkwardly knowing he was intoxicated and he wouldn't act like himself. I look around for Ashton and don't find him. I see Calum and walk over to him "have you seen Ash?" "um...I think he's in his room" he nods and I walk upstairs to Ashton's room.

I hear light sobs coming from his room and I cock a eyebrow. I slowly push open his door and walk in shutting the door softly. I walk over behind him and sneak under the covers.He rolls over and hooks his arms around my waist.

"What's wrong?" "everything" I rub his back and he silently cries in my shoulder. "Ash,its ok" I say and his sobs calm down. "I just over think things an than if one thing happens badly it sticks with me the whole day."

"Ash it's ok,i promise" I say and he looks in my eyes,"I love you Rose" he says and I smile. "I love you too Ashton" he hugs me making me gasp for air.

"Oops" he giggles,"come on" he puts me in his back and we go downstairs. "CAKE TIME!!" He screams and everyone piles into the kitchen and he sets me down at the end of the table. I don't know how he can go from sad to happy in under a minute.

"HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!" everyone sings obnoxiously. When everyone was done I think of a wish and blow out the cheap candles. "if you get food poisoning it's cause of Ashton" someone says "HEY! I'm not that bad of a cook" I smile up at Ashton and grab the piece of cake.

"Woah" I say at the delicious chocolate frosted cake. "wow" Calum says looking at Ash. "see" he snaps at the kid who said it. he puts his hands up in surrender. We finish the cake and I wash my plate. I felt arms wrap around my waist. I look over my shoulder and its Luke.

I finish and turn around and dry my hands,"happy birthday" he pecks my lips and I sigh. "Luke we need to talk immediately". He tilts his head confused,"Luke I don't really have as many feelings as you do with me..." I say he licks his lips and brings his lip ring I between his teeth. "I knew it,Im such an idiot" "Luke you aren't a idiot" "I knew you liked Calum and I was just so stupid to even think you would like me" he tugs at his hair.

"I like Calum as a friend" "I can see the way you look at him,the way he looks at you" I look over to Calum who was across the room. He looks at me and smiles,I look at Luke. I put my hands on his shoulder he shrugs them off. "don't" I look down.

"Just forget what we had and go to Calum...I fucking hate you rose" he screams and punches the counter I was leaned against. I flinch and he walks out,I put my hands on my face and I don't cry cause I don't like to cry it just shows that Im weak.

Someone wraps there arms around me and by there scent I knew it was Calum. "it's ok" he hugs me tighter and lifts me up and I wrap my legs around him. "you're like a little khola" he chuckles and I wrap my arms around his neck and put my face in his shoulder.

"I'm such a screw up" I say and he rubs my back,I feel him walk and I knew we were going up to my room. He lays us down under my covers and I lay on top of him. He rubs the skin where my shirt rid up. I look at him and his brown eyes connected with mine. He smiles at me and I smile,I lean down and he leans up and I feel his lips brush against mine. "Just kiss me you dick" I say and he pushes the back of my head to connect are lips and I sit up fully so I was more comfortable for this kiss.

His lips were soft and plump,it felt like his lips were waiting for me to kiss him and it felt like home upon his lips. I part my lips and he slipped his tongue into my mouth and we work are tongues together. We separate out of breath, "woah" he says and I climb off his lap. "shit" I wipe my lips,"meow" I grab Tipton (I like I better than London). "Rose I'm sorry" he apologizes.

"It's ok,it was a mistake"
