There is a picture attached here that shows who I imagine the characters to look like ^^^^

Callums POV
The walk from Shady's cabin to the McCreddin Mansion feels twice as long.I hated walking away from her, leaving her with some guy who claims to be her boyfriend.If he was her boyfriend then why the hell did she look like she was going to collapse when she saw him.

I only walked away because if I stayed then I would have gotten sick.Not because Im still sorta drunk, but because he said she was his girlfriend.Its stupid, but I thought she was single, I thought I had a chance with her.

I know that Im with Ashley but it's not by choice.I know I've only been here for a few days but I can already tell that Ashley and I will never work out.But with Shady it was different.I knew coming to Ireland was a bad idea.

When I walk into the foyer of the oversized house for a family of three, I hear someone calling my name.

"Callum, is that you?" The voice belongs to Ashley.She appears at the top of the stairs and attempts to run down them as fast as possible. "I was so worried about you" She exclaims while wrapping her arms around my shoulders.

"You were?" I stand awkwardly as she finishes the unexpected hug.

"I thought something happened to you.I went down to Shady's cabin this morning to see if the two of you wanted to come up for breakfast but there was no answer at the door and I was so worried that maybe something bad happened..." She rambles her words too quickly and begins to go into a panic.

"Ashley, its okay" I cut her off to prevent her from hyperventilating. "We went to McDonalds because neither of us know how to cook a breakfast" I chuckle lightly as Ashley's panicked features soften and warm up.

"Sorry, I just panic sometimes" She sighs and tucks her loose strand of hair behind her ear.

"Its fine.Its nice to know that someone cares about me" She looks up at me and slightly blushes.

"Where is Shady now" Ashley changes the subject and Im kind of grateful because Im not in the mood for a heart felt conversation about who cares about me,

"Shes down at the cabin. She asked me to leave because her boyfriend is there" I attempt to cover my disgust, but it doesn't really work.Ashley didn't seem to notice though because she is too busy frowning in confusion.

"Shady doesn't have a boyfriend" She says

"Well this guy named Harvey Stevens claimed to by her boyfriend" Im pretty sure Im after getting his name wrong.Based on the look on Ashley's face, I really got it wrong.

"Harley Evans?" She asks in a cautious whisper.By the look in her eyes, I can tell that shes afraid to receive an answer.I nod instead of speaking and her mouth falls open. "What the fuck is he doing back here" She gasps, and so do I. Cursing doesn't suit Ashley's demeanour.

"Im not sure, Shady told me to leave when she saw him" Ashley is beginning to panic, again.

"Shit! I better go down there before a murder happens" She runs over to the coat hook and buttons up her jacket.

"Murder! You think he will kill her?" My voice is loud and matches Ashley's panicked face.

"I think she will kill him" She looks back at me before opening the front door and running down the steps.I follow in her footsteps as we both run down the pathway.

We are out of breath by the time we reach the cabin.Ashley's hand shakes as she turns the knob on the door.We rush in to find Shady lying on the floor and Harley leaning over her, kissing her. My heart drops when Shady's eyes meet mine.I turn on my heels and exit the cabin.I can hear Shady calling my name as I run back through the woods.
