Calum Hood

Why did I just admit that to Ashton,he's going to kill me,I climb off of him and walk down the hall to the bathroom.I lock the door and look into the mirror,my eyes they were dark. no no no,it cant be happening again. I grip thw side of the sink and my knuckles turn white. The ring around my eyes were red from crying,I was crying from Rose. She makes me go crazy and I cant help it,I need a drink,I need to get out of here and go to the bar,fast.

I unlock the door and walk out putting my hood over my head and my hands in my pocket,"Cal wait" I ignore Ashton and walk out faster than I came in. I sit in my car and take off my hood,I grip the stirring wheel and put my head on it. "Im so stupid" I need to drink to get Roses image out of my head,forget about her and I need to go back to the old me. Be who I am,she changed me and I liked that but I hate it deep down.

I pull out of the parking spot I was in and blast Blink 182,I speed off to the Kangroo Bar,I hope I could find a girl to bang and forget about Rose,drink my problems away and never be in contact with her ever again.

Rosemary Holmes

I look down and see me in my clothes,I look up and see myself as a little girl,my pigtails and the pink ribbons holding them up. "Father why?" I remember this day in the back of my head. It was the day of my fathers funeral,"crazy huh" I flinch and look over,there stood my dad. "crazy looking back on my mistakes" he shakes his head.

"its not your fault you died dad" I say and look back up at the image,"you know Lenny misses you too" he points and I see my ex boyfriend. His black hair slicked back and is signature outfit,black skinny jeans and black T-Shirt. "Lenny?" I breathe,and he walks over his bright smile warms me. "Hey baby" there was a hole in his shoulder.

"Is that where you got shot?" I ask and he nods,"robbing a gas station wasn't my best idea" he laughs awkwardly. "I'll leave you too" my dad walks away and disappears into the distant fog. I reach for his hand and he pulls away. "You cant" he says and I croak a eyebrow. "If you touch me you'll disappear,your hand will vanish" he says sadly.

"I don't care Lenny" I say and he smiles "I want to kiss you but that'll be selfish" he says "kiss me" he looks up and shakes his head "If I do you'll die,if we touch at all" "I don't care,I miss how you lips feel upon mine" I say "I need to tell you something" I nod "follow me" we walk somewhere and I notice we were in a bar. "come" he says and we walk towards the counter and I look and see Calum.

"Cal?" he didn't move "he cant hear or see you" Lenny says I look down and see him sip on his drink "Why is he here?" I look up at Lenny and he sighs "He's trying to drink you away and forget about you,he'll try to find a girl and think it'll erase you,he's such a douche bag Rose" I walk over to Calum and he combs his blonde tips out of his face.

"Can I mess with him?" I ask Lenny,he smirks and nods,I grab his cup and he flinches,"if you touch him alot or make skin contact he'll be able to see you" I look into his eyes and his brown eyes were red around from the alcohol. I grab his hand and intertwine my fingers with his,I feel myself get this shock and my transparent skin fades more darker.

"rose?" I look up and see Calum,"Cal please stop" I say and his eyes are wide "Hood stop talking to yourself" I see a girl walk over to Calum and climbs onto his lap. A tear rolls down my cheek,he finishes his drink and drags the girl to the bathroom. "NO!" I scream and only Lenny and Calum could hear me. Calum makes eye contact with me,"don't" I mouth and he looks away,he lets go of the girls hand and he walks over to me. He moves his finger directing me to go outside,I shake my head and he grabs my hand pulling me into the back of the bar.

"What the fuck,how can I see you" he says and I look behind him and Lenny was leaned up against the wall. "Who's behind me?" he looks behind him and saw Lenny. "Who are you?" he snaps.

"Leonardo,but you can call me Lenny" he smirks toward Calum, "who are you to Rose?" "her boyfriend that died from a gas station shoot out and if I was alive I would beat your ass for how you treat Rose" he says and Calum looks at me,"Rose,why are you fading" I look at my arm. "Bye Calum"
