Ashton's P.O.V
Mornings are never fun. Here or back in Australia, screaming and shouting seem to be the only way of communication. Mum ends up getting stressed out, Lauren ends up moody, Harry throws a fit every three minutes and I nearly have a mental breakdown!
"Ashton can you please get Har ready?" Mum asked as she ironed her work tunic.
"Yeah sure mum!"I said as I climbed back up the stairs to help get my younger brother dressed. "Hey bud? Come on, time to get ready!"
"No!" He protested. "I want daddy to do it!"
"Harry daddy isn't here, remember he was mean to mummy? You didn't like seeing mummy sad did you?" I pleaded. His little face dropped and mearly nodded as he pulled his polo top over his head then attempted to put his trousers on, I then stepped in and helped him get them fasten them. "Come on bed, Laurs got your coco puffs ready!"
"Sorry Ashy, I didn't mean to be selfish." He mumbled as we walked down the stairs.
"It's okay bud!" I patted him on his back, "Now go get your breakfast before it gets soggy!"
He ran over to the table where his coco pops and Lauren was, I went through to the living room where mum was and hugged her and kissed her cheek, "I'll drop them off today. Let you get yourself sorted out."
"Ashton, you don't have too!"
"Mum yes I do, it'll be easier. Harry and Lauren's primary are in the same bit as my high school, it makes sense if I do it."
Mum turned around and looked up at me, "Oh when did you get so grown up?" She quietly asked and started to re-tie my tie.
"Hmm dunno? Just happened I guess."I said shrugging my shoulders. "Love you mum."
"Love you too sweetie." She smiled.
I waled back into the kitchen to see Lauren help Harry with his spellings he'd gotten yesterday. "Come on guys let's get going, don't wanna be late!" I smiled picking their coats off the hangers for them and I pulled them on happily and I pulled on my black bomber jacket. We all grabbed our bags and filed out the front door.
"Belt up!" I said, turning to face the back seats once we'd get into the car. They quickly did so, the drive to campus didn't take long only about ten or fifteen minutes. As soon as I opened the door they both rushed out, hugging me, I hugged back and kissed their cheeks, then they ran to the playground.
I got back into the car and drove along to the high school car park and parked up. Then it hit me I forgot to take my medication, I racked through the car opening anything that would open and then pulling everything out of my back till I find my box of them sitting at the bottom of my bag and took two of the tablets. I quickly put everything back in my bag, left the car, locked it and walked into school.
Katelyn's P.O.V
Free periods are always the best especially period four before lunch since you can just go straight down the street or actually sit down in the cafe and enjoy your lunch instead of wolfing it down you gob. But I'm sat here in the library waiting for Cal to show up.
"Sorry I'm late, coach wanted to talk about the season and if I was ready." Calum panted as he sat next to me.
"It's sound hunni, now spill!" I ordered sipping my mocha.
"Yeah so basically I might be moving to the other side of the world for something I'm not even sure I want to do. But my parents think I should go and do it since I've been playing sport since I could walk! And I'm scared shit-less about it, they even called coach about it and he told the whole bloody team! So I'm damned if I do and damned if I fucking don't right now!" taking a deep breath once he finally finished his rant.
"Have you told your parents how you feel?"
"No cause they don't fucking listen! Katelyn, you know that yourself!" He harshly spat.
"Calum I know what your parents are like, your mum and my mum are best friends. I practically live at your house most of the time."
He took a deep breath, "Sorry."
"For what Mr Hood?" I asked.
"For always putting this onto you, you've got to much on your plate right now, you don't need to worry about me!" He rambled looking down at the table.
I was just about to reply to that when both of our phones lit up at the same time, mines lighting up with a call from Ailsa-Mary and Calums lighting up with Luke.
