Ash P.O.V

I get a phone call from Denise and it went like this:

Denise: ASHTON! CASS GOT KIDNAPPED BY THIS DUDE NAMED ERIK!!

Me: What the fuck?! What happened?! Where is she Denise?!

Denise: I DON'T KNOW JUST PLEASE COME HERE AND FIND HER!!

Me: Okay I'll be there.

The phone call ends and I receive a text from Erik:

If you want Cass, we're in the abandoned house near the end of that farm.

Why would he take Cass? And why would he take her there? Anyway, I get in my car and drive to that house. It's not so much of a house more like a barn or very small work shack.

I walk in and everything is pitch black. Sudden lights turn on and I'm blind for a couple seconds before my eyes could readjust again.

"Cass!" I scream noticing that she's been tied up onto a chair. Her mouth is covered by rope and she squirms. She tries to scream and having difficulty getting out.

"Ashton, remember me mate?" Erik asks creeping up behind Cass.

"What the hell dude?! Leave her alone!" I yell angrily. I sort of have an idea of what's going to happen but I don't want to blurt it out either.

"When where you planning to tell her?" He asks.

"Jesus Christ! I was planning to tell her but not like this!" I debate.

Erik takes of the rope around Cass' mouth allowing her to take a deep breath.

"Tell me what?" She asks desperately.

I stay silent and looking at the floor. I knew I was supposed to tell her sooner or later but this is ridiculous.

"Cass, do you think Ashton is at keeping a lie or secret?" He asks clearly amused at what is going on.

Cass doesn't say anything. She mouths "What?" And I shrug pretending like I know nothing.

"Fine, don't answer. He's good at lying." Erik says. Cass looks super confused and I'm pissed.

"Erik, don't do this! I will tell her but not like this." I say.

"Ashton! Baby just tell me." Cass says.

"Yeah Ashton, tell her. Tell her everything." Erik says mockingly.

"Erik shut up! Cass, you really don't want to know." I feel tears forming in my eyes.

"I don't want to live through a lie. Tell me." She says.

Erik notices me. He knows how much I didn't want to tell her. He knows everything. I don't want to say it.

"Well, I don't know if you'll believe me Cass but here it comes. Ashton and I made a bet. The first one to trick a couple of chicks into falling for them and kinda take their virginity away, would win. The virginity part, we didn't care if it was for real or you know condom. What they would win is a lot of money." Erik states this and my heartbeat increased.

"W-wha-at?" Cass asks tearing up, almost crying.

"You know Calum's girlfriend? The one who got pregnant? Yeah, that was me." Erik says smiling.

"Erik, stop." I say.

"He took advantage of that band practice once he saw you. Perfect girl. He tried speeding things up but he realized how much he actually fell for you." Erik keeps going.

I feel tears rolling down my cheeks. I didn't want Cass to see me like this but I don't care anymore.

"Truth is, he didn't want to fall in love with you. It happened on accident, sorry sweetie." He says smiling still.

"Let me go." Cass demands weakly. Her voice sounds like she's keeping it from trembling.

"Where are you going to go Cass?" Erik asks.

She shrugs and starts crying. Erik must've hit her because she started wincing in pain. I gave up and walked over. My fists clenched as I punched the left side of his face. He fell to the floor and I tried untying the ropes around Cass.

"Don't. Just don't." She says weakly but I ignored her and continued untying her. She's free and all she does is get up and look at me.

"I-i'm sorry." I stutter.

"Thanks. I'm walking home." She says.

Before I could say anything else she walks out. I catch up with her and grave her by her wrist.

"Let go of me!" She yells and yanks my grip off.
