Chapter 40

I could tell Ashton was stressed and maybe even a little depressed, but I had no idea how bad it was going to get. He was pretty good at hiding his true feelings, but he had also promised he would come to me if something was wrong. I trusted him , But the stress was about to get the best of Ashton.

I jumped out of the car running up to the house , using my spare key I yelled his name as me and Calum searched the house top to bottom. I cringed seeing the en suite bathroom door closed with a sign saying keep out.

"Ashton?" I spoke over the shower water running. I had hopes maybe he was just taking a shower and that I had nothing to worry about but when there was no reply my heart almost dropped. "ASHTON?!" I repeated louder. Still no reply , I managed to budge the door open with a bit of force.

"A-Ashton... no... no, no..."I stuttered out. My eyes were glued to the floor not wanting to look up and see him so broken. I could see the remaining pills scattered amongst the floor.

I looked back up at my older brother and I noticed the blonde fragile girl clinging on to his arm for dear life, I hadn't even noticed Sasha in the room.
Her  red, bloodshot eyes looked up at me, tears streaming down her cheeks.  I then looked towards Ashton and saw a side to him  that had barely made an appearance before. He was so vulnerable, so scared.

I brought him forward into my arms. He clung onto me, finally letting everything out. Ashtons tears soaked through my shirt but I ignored it, gripping him tighter.

"I'm sorry... I'm so sorry," Sasha choked out. I was about to protest when I noticed blood pouring onto the floor , next thing I know I was on the floor screaming Calums name.

I paced up and down the hospital hallway waiting for the doctors to tell me what was going on. All they had told me is that it wasn't critical and he wasn't going to die. Although if we had found him any later he would of been a goner , the thought of that sent me into a frenzy and I began screaming out Sasha in the middle of a hospital.

''This is all your fault!'' I yelled in her face

''How... You cannot be serious right now Rebecca.'' Sasha laughed hysterically

''HE COULD OF DIED TONIGHT DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND?''

''Yes I do understand I'm the one who fucking found him wasn't I?'' she reminded me.

''You shouldn't of given him hope Sasha. You should of left when you had the chance. You made him think things would go back to the way they were.'' I sighed running a hand through my hair.

''Yeah? and whose fault was that Rebecca? Last time I was told you were the one who got to remember things and got to have a baby okay? Don't you think its been hard for me to deal with all of this. I woke up being told I lost a baby that I do not even remember! I DON'T EVEN REMEMBER MY OWN HUSBAND!''She cried out.

''Both of you stop okay?'' Calum said

''N-''

''WH-'

''Seriously both of you cut it out. Ashton's the one we need to focus on and he don't need to be welcomed by both of you screaming at each other okay?''

''Fine.'' Sasha said walking into Ashtons hospital room , I turned around to face Calum about to snap at him for getting involved but he just pulled me into his arms unexpectedly and for the second time that night I broke down crying in his arms.

''He's going to be fine Rebecca. They said he was going to be okay.'' he soothed stroking my hair as we swayed back and forth.

''But.He.What.If.He...tries to do it ag-''
