Falling For You (5SOS fanfic)

Dizzy

Ashton's POV

Everything lately has been strange and I absolutely hated it. Michael won't talk to anybody, thanks to me, Maria has barely said a word to me ever since that night, Calum and Luke have been hanging around Brianna more than they have with me, and Brianna has been ignoring me and acting so cold towards me.

I understand that she's upset that I lied to her and Michael, but to not even talk to me for two weeks? The longest we went without talking was an entire day and now... What the hell happened?

I've practically been shunned from the group. I miss them... I mean, they're my best friends in the entire world, how can I not? I miss going out clubbing with Michael. I miss playing video games with Luke and Calum. I miss having horror movie marathons with Brianna. I miss Maria.

Maria... I don't even know what happened there. She was my best friend's girlfriend and my friend too, but now...

Things have been so weird. Every time I see her she ignores me and acts cold towards me, and yet it feels like my heart is going to jump out of my chest when I see her face. I can't explain it, I've never had that happen to me before.

The bell rang, causing me to snap out of my train of thought. I looked down at my notebook to see I had only written half the notes I was supposed to because I had gotten so caught up in my thoughts. The notes I did write were sloppily written. I guess I was too distracted.

I collected my things on the desk and followed Calum out into the hallway.

It was silent between us like it usually was the past two weeks so I was used to walking in silence. As I walked, I gripped my notebook and tried to read the notes I had poorly written.

"Hey Cal." A sweet familiar voice that I haven't heard lately was audible through the chatter in the hallways and I stopped in my tracks.

I snapped my head up and saw the familiar bright blue eyed brunette standing next to Calum's locker. Once she saw me, she immediately froze and the smile that I had missed so much faded from her face.

I didn't know what to do or say. I just stood there staring at her and she did the same.

The truth is, I missed her. More than I thought I could. It killed me that she wasn't talking to me and whenever I saw her I would try to talk to her but she would always act like I didn't even exist. I've never seen her act so cold to anyone before and I hated it.

"Hey." Calum interrupted the silence and opened up his locker, but I never tore my gaze away from her.

I lifted my hand up and did a little awkward wave that I instantly regretted. "Hey Bri." I smiled.

She averted her eyes from mine and focused her attention on Calum. "Hurry up and let's go."

My smile left my face. She was still ignoring me...

I sighed while narrowing my eyes. "I'll see you guys later I guess?"

With one last glance at Brianna who was still trying not to look at me, I turned around and walked away.

I guess she needs more time...

I fast walked down the hallway. I knew Brianna and Calum were going to be walking out to the parking lot any minute, and since Bri didn't want to see me I had to get there first so I didn't bump into them again.

I can't believe things have gotten this bad, all because Maria and Michael broke up. Nothing like this has ever happened to the group. It's so weird not being able to talk to my five best friends every day, especially when three of them won't even talk to me at all.
