ASHTON'S POV:

We all watched as Melissa and Luke talked. I was watching closely because Melissa and I have this little thing, I'm a little jealous because I actually like her. I can't tell Luke or the guys that because I know Luke really likes her but he won't tell her, he's so scared. As we watched there was this girl that walked past, I took it as my chance not to hint anything to the other guys so I went after her.

"What's your name, babe?" I say wrapping my arm around her.

"Haha. I'm not telling you." She said. She's playing 'Hard to get'.

"Why's that?" I ask.

"I barely know you, plus I got my eyes something else." She said looking back at the 2 guys leaning on Luke's car. She's a diva.

"Well, let me not be rude. Come meet my fellow mates." I smirk. I turn her around and we walk up to the guys.

"Guys I would like you to me-" She cut me off.

"Hello, I'm Jessica." She gave this beautiful smile. Michael was head over heels and Calum didn't care to notice.

"Hi, I'm Michael and this is Calum." Michael blushes. I haven't seen him do that in I don't know how long. That's were that hit it off.

It's not fair, I want that with Melissa. I know she isn't gonna play games with Luke and me. She will make a decision. Until then, Jessica is mine.

"Hey, Jessica, wanna join us for dinner?" I ask.

"Sure." She says putting her number on a paper handing it to me. "I gotta get going, text me." She waved and walked off. I got a plan.

LUKE'S POV:

I was talking to Melissa until she got a call. "I gotta go. Text me. Bye, guys." She said then waved at the guys who were occupied by something. I ignored it but Ashton and Michael were glaring at eachother.

"Come on, guys. It's not like y'all actually care about her." Calum said.

"For once I actually do!" Ashton said.

"Me too!" Michael yelled back

"Well, figure this out later, I have a date I need to get ready for. " Calum said.

"A date?" I ask. "What dinner then sex?" I say going to my car door.

"You know me so well." He said. I roll my eyes.

"We'll meet you at the house." They all say but Michael got in my car.

"What was that with Melissa?" He asked putting on his seat-belt.

"What are you talking about?"

"You actually looked happy, not scared." He said. I pulled out of the parking space.

"Scared?" I ask.

"Your always scared that Dylan will think something of it. What's going on?"

"You were right. I should've listened." I say looking at only the road.

"Look, Luke. If this is what you thought I wanted, your wrong. I wanted what's best for you. Your my bestfriend. I didn't want you to break up with her." He tells me.

"She cheated." I say.

"I'm sorry, Luke." I ignored him the rest of the way home. I'm not mad at him, I just don't want to talk about it and no one should be sorry, everyone tried to warn me. I'm the one blame. I got out of the car, leaving my bag in the back seat cause I didn't have homework and I wouldn't have to worry about forgetting it. I walked in the house and went upstairs. I went to my room, locked the door and laid on my bed. Uncontrollable tears started falling down my face. I just cried myself to sleep.

*****

I woke up and looked at my alarm clock, on my stand, it read 7:00. I rolled over and checked my phone I had like 30 messages from Dylan begging for another chance. I deleted them without opening any of them. I sat up and looked around, this is so unreal. I stood up and walked to my door and went down the hall, down the stairs.

When I got down the stairs, the guys were sitting in the living room on the couch,silent, which meant something bad happened. Calum looked horrified.

"What's going on?" I ask. Everyone looks at me, except Calum.

"Someone's going to have a 'mini-me' running around." Ashton answered. My eyes about popped out of there sockets.

"Calum?" I ask. He turned to me.

"It's you?" I ask.

"Yeah." He said. "I have to stop doing what I'm doing. I'm gonna be a father my child deserves." He said and I was proud of him. He's making the right choice.

"I'm proud of you, man." I say, he nodded.

"Why? I'm only 22. I should've been smarter than that!" He scolded me.

"Calum, do you hear yourself?! Exactly your 22! I've met a thousand of 17 year old guys who.knock up a girl and can't take the consequences and abandons the girl and the baby! But no, your deciding to be in this child's life. Your giving the child a life with their father! What's so wrong with that?" All the guys looked shocked.

"What's wrong with that is that I'm not ready to be a father! I want to live my life! Only 22! I have so much more to do in life! That's what's wrong, Luke!" He yells at me.

"You know what, go screw yourself! Now, your just being selfish and pathetic! If your so worried about living your life then tell me who the girl is so I can go help her and you can go live the life you want so damn bad! I will not stand by and watch a child be abandoned." I yell walking back up the stairs. I got to my room and sat on my bed. I checked my phone and there was a text from my mom, I smiled at what it read,

'Hey, sweetheart. I hope you had a great first day. I'm sorry I couldn't be there. I miss you. I love you, so much. Try to get some rest. ' it read.

My heart warmed. She has made my day. I replied,

'Thank you, mom. It was good. Its okay, You gotta do what you gotta do. You made it a lot better, though. I miss and love you, too. Sweet dreams. Goodnight.' I say.

After I sent it, there was a knick on my door, "Can I come in?" It was Calum.

"Why not." I say sarcastically. He walked in.

"Look, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to hurt your feelings and I didn't mean what I said in a bad way. I'm just shocked. This is new to me. I'm not ready to be a father." He apologized.

"I know your not ready, but you made the child so you have to be there for it. You can't just say 'I want to live life.' It's not fair to the child. You knew it could happen when you didn't use protection. You should stop doing what your doing and be there for that baby and her. Speaking of, who is it?" I say.

"I know and I am. Jasmine." He said.

"Isn't she the one that actually liked you and cried when you left?" He nods. "Do you like her, at all?" I ask.

He just shrugged, "She's good in bed."

"Okay, well why don't you give it a chance get to know her. Y'all are having a baby together. I'm just suggesting."

"I'll do that." He smiled.

"Good. Keep me updated. And always know I'm here for you. Need help, just ask."

"Thanks man." I stood up and gave him a hug.

"Anytime." I smile.

"So what was wrong earlier?" He asks as we sat on my bed.

"Dylan and I broke up. She cheated." I say.

"Oh. You'll find someone better." He says. I smile at him. This is why were so close he doesn't apologize cause he knows he's not and that he shouldn't be.

"Thanks, buddy." I say.

"Let's go downstairs." He says getting up and I follow.
