"So basically," I sighed, "Ashton's girlfriend has turned him into an oblivious asshole who seems to hate me."
I took a sip from my caramel macchiato and placed the cup down, shaking my head.
"I don't understand though, why did she hate you?" Vicky asked, raising an eyebrow.
I shrugged, "I really don't know, but she had mentioned something about knowing me for a long time of something like that. Then again, she drilled a lot of things into my head."
Victoria nodded, trying to take in the stories i'd told her about our trips. She took a sip from her cup, staring at it for a minute before she looked back up at me.
"Did any of the other lads stand up for you?" She asked.
I shrugged, "Yeah, kinda. I mean, I didn't say too much to them, but Luke stuck up for me once. I feel like they were all oblivious to it, I don't blame them though."
"Is she pretty? Or is she just ugly all over?" Vicky asked, anxiously leaning over the table.
I held up my finger, pulling out my phone and going onto her Instagram,which she'd sent me a request for. I turned the phone over to Victoria.
"She called you fat?" She barked, "Ha, I guess she hasn't looked in the mirror. She's not like fat, fat, but she has no right to say anything to you. She must just be jealous, only thing I can come up with."
I opened my mouth to answer, but was cut off by my phone vibrating on the table. It was Calum. I bit my lip, looking up at Victoria through my lashes.
"Answer," She said, pointing to the phone. I he's intently grabbed the phone and held it to my ear.
"Hey?" I answered softly, biting on my nails.
"Bella," Calum sighed in relief, "I thought you were, like, dead or something. You didn't even read our text messages and-"
"I'm alive," I promised in a monotone voice, rolling my eyes. "I'm alive."
Victoria pointed over to the restrooms, I nodded, and she got up and walked over there.
"Glad you got home safely! Wait, you-you are home, right?"
"Yes Calum, I'm home and I'm fine. Have fun with Casey and crew," I tried not to sound bitter, but the words just freely flew out of my mouth in whatever tone they wanted to.
"Casey's being nicer, she really is. Do you want to meet us somewhere and we can finish the rest of the trip?" He asked, hopeful.
I scoffed, "Um, thanks but no thanks. She was also nice when I wasn't there. Bye."
I hung up, feeling very aggravated with Calum. He was supposed to be supportive of me and nice, but everyone ends up siding with fucking Casey...
