Calum

"Calum. Calum wake up it 8 o'clock and you need to go home!" Alaska says stripping the sheets from my body, and poking my shoulder. I sit up, the confusion settling. I had fallen asleep..

She says opening the door of her room. "C'mon. I'll drive." She says pulling me out the door of her room downstairs. Getting into the passenger seat, I laugh leaning my head against the frosted glass. "Tell me your address and then please explain what happened to your face." She says starting her car. Telling her my address, I look in the drivers mirror realizing my eye had a small bruise under it and my lip was swollen pretty bad. Overall, I looked like complete shit. "Oh um well..." I hesitate telling her that Derek beat the living crap out of me, but finally give in.

I sigh. "Let's just say, I taught Derek a lesson on how not to be a dick and he got pretty upset." She looks at me, a undefined look. I couldn't tell her emotion, and that bothered me. "Well that's funny cause your'e a dick." She scoffs, causing me to tense up. "Your'e friends with him Calum! No matter how hard you try you're still Calum Hood!" I bite my lip looking out the window. I open my mouth to fight back but restrain, I couldn't disagree with the truth.

"Listen. You hurt me pretty bad okay? And now all the sudden you're calling me pretty and sticking up for me? How am I supposed to handle that Calum?" She says, pain in her voice. Her words hit like bullets, and surprisingly, they didn't hurt. They were numbing, seeing her in pain, those were the thing I was avoiding when I became friends with her. As we pull up to my house, I can see tears in her eyes , causing a pit to grow in my stomach.

Alaska sighs with shaky breath.

"Just stay out of my life. It was better that way okay?"

I close the car door, not saying a word to her. I close the door on the people I care the most about. And now I just lost Alaska, I fucking lost her. I knew my parents weren't home so I went through the back, collapsing on my bed. School was going to be hell tomorrow.

Alaska's POV

I couldn't face anyone at school today. I was furious with Calum and honestly I didn't want to see his face. Luckily, my dad had let me stay home, he always did. I text Ashton, seeing if he could bring me coffee.

A: Hey I'm having a shit week and skipping today can you get me coffee??

AI: Hey I'm having good day but I'll ditch and get the both of us coffee how about that?

A: Sound amazing.

AI: See you in 20 :))

Ashton was the only person I wanted to see. I like Ashton alot and every minute I could spend with him was amazing. Hearing about Lila made me jealous ya, but they didn't work out, as of Monday.

20 minutes later I hear a knock on the door knowing it was Ashton. I open it, Ash standing there a huge coffee in his hand and a bag of something. I give him a hug before letting him on, him throwing the bag on the table and handing me a coffee. "Thanks." I say quietly, taking a sip, warmth filling my body.

"No problem Al. Anyways, why are you having a bad day?" He says sitting down on my couch, patting the section next to him. I cuddle up on his chest, feeling his breath down my neck.

"Calum. He was such a dick to me for the past 2 years and then out of the blue he just starts to be all nice to me, complementing me and defending me. It's like it's some sort of joke. It makes me so mad that he thinks just because hes Calum Hood means he can just come into my life whenever the hell he wants!" I say, causing Ash to sigh. He leans his chin on top of my head, planting a small kiss on my temple.

He looks down at me, a smile on his face. "Alaska, be honest. Do you like Calum?" He asks causing me to scrunch my nose. "No." I say plain out causing a laugh to escape Ash's lips. "Well then don't care about him. He's Calum Hood. He's gonna be a bitch..." I sigh.

"I guess I've learned my lesson." I say, pain still contained. Ashton smiles and bites his lip. "Alaska Lena Grace, will you go on a date with me Friday night?" He asks causing my eyes to widen.

Truthfully, I really liked him but us dating would ruin our friendship right? At least that's what fan fiction told me. But then again he's Ashton and he would never do anything to hurt me right?

"Of course." I say, the words spilling out of my mouth, almost as if I had no control. His face lights up, causing me to let out a soft laugh. "What do you want to do?" I ask looking up into his hazel eyes. "Nothing." He says kissing my forehead, causing me to smile uncontrollably.

I didn't know what was going to happen. All I knew was that I was happy. But that wouldn't last long.
