Teenage horror story ➵A.I

Part 25-Im afraid

Your welcome for the fetus Calum being a bean btw

|Ashton's pov|

Calum's body was heavy with pain, his eyes wincing as we carried him away from the house. The police and ambulance were here now, and Tate was grabbed and cuffed by one of the police men as soon as we dragged him out. I was holding Calum in my arms as I walked towards the paramedics. I was walking without thought, every thing is happening so fast. "We will take your friend from here Sir." One of the nurses said, gesturing for me to lie him on the stretcher. I did so and thanked her, watching them take his mangled body away from me. I shook my head away from the scene and turned to go towards Olivia who was talking to the police, Scarlett holding her hand as she told the story. "If he has gotten out once, he really needs to be taken care of." She said quietly to him. "Don't worry Mrs.Violet, his previous offence was overlooked but his sentences will be more permanent now. He will be moved to a max level security for life now, you don't have to worry anymore." The police man nodded, causing Olivia's face to flood with relief. She thanked him and turned away from the police, hugging Scarlett in relief. She smiled as she hugged her and they both looked so happy, Scarlett with her old hair back and Olivia's fear taken away. I think things will be better now.

Somethings changed in him. I have noticed it before but it is more prominent as ever now, his sadness is casting a shadow over his seemingly permanent smile that I find comfort in. But why? He wont tell me and its driving me insane. I care about him too much to see him like this, I'm done with people hurting. I lied there on the small couch in my new home, Jessica humming and making breakfast. "I need to go see Ashton." I shouted out. Jessica turned to me with a worried look on her face. "Is something wrong?" She asked. I sighed, "I hope not." I replied, standing up and walking to the door. "Ill save some breakfast for you the love, be safe okay?" She said reluctantly. I nodded to her, smiling quickly before grabbing my cigarettes and my flannel and walking out the door. I need to know now, I need to know whats going on. 

I walked out of the street, inhaling the smoke and letting its relief fill my lungs. I grinned as the anxiety washed out of me and kept walking to his house. "Olivia?" I heard, my body stopping in shock. Oh shit. I turned slowly to see Luke standing there with a puzzled look on his face. The color washed from my face but I put on a fake smile. I took the cig out of my hand and started to talk. "Hey! You put in the ring, it looks good." I said, refereeing to his change from a lip stud to black ring. He looked un phased as he stood there looking down at me. "Why haven't you gone home Liv?" He asked quietly. "What are you doing here anyway?" I asked. He nodded to the little store on the street side, it was a coffee shop. I know he goes there a lot but I never thought I would see him there. "Don't change the subject on me." He said, crossing his arms. "I just went to visit Jess..." I said. "Why haven't you gone home? Everyday after school you go to Jessica's to 'hang out'." He sighed, walking towards me. I sighed, there is no use in lying now. But right now isn't about me. "Can we talk about this later? I think theres something wrong with Ashton." I said to him. His body language changed right away, from protective to...upset. He looked down at the ground, putting his hand behind his neck. He cant look me in the eye, he only does that when he's hiding something. What don't I know? "I know he's self harming, I saw them. Is there anything else you guys aren't telling me?" I pushed, trying to look in his eyes. He nodded slowly after a moment of silence. I sighed, grabbing his arm gently. "We are going to him." I said, walking along side him offering him a cigarette.

I knocked on his door with Luke close behind me. A few minutes later, Ashton opened the door with dark rings under his eyes. He yawned and looked to us with a giggle. "You woke me up you ass holes." "Ash, we need to talk." I said quietly. His expression changed quickly, but he moved out of the way so we could come in. He closed the door and ran his fingers though his messy hair. He was wearing nothing but Adidas sweat pants, god he looked amazing. All I want to do is lie with him and kiss his tired face, but I cant right now. Right now I need to be here for him. We all walked to the stairs but I waved to Ash's dad who was sitting on the couch before we went down. "Nice to see you Oli!" He shouted as we walked down the stairs. "Nice to see you too Mr.Irwin!" I said, reaching the bottom of the stairs. I had met his dad a few times over the last few months when we hung out as a group in Ash's house, he is a really sweet guy. We all sat on the couch and I sat next to Ash, putting my hand on his leg. "Whats up?" He smiled, I could see thought that artificial smile from years away. "Ash whats wrong? You haven't been as happy as you usually are. We are worried." I whispered. His eyes turned dark, and his breathing grew slower. "She just wants to help man, you need to tell her whats up so she can do that." Luke said to him, making me even more confused. Ash took a deep breath and nodded slowly. "I was drinking, I should have known better but I drove." He started with a shaky voice. "My mom couldn't drive due to her being lazy and never getting a license," He said, laughing under his breath. "So I drove her when ever my dad couldn't. I said I would pick her up from a party she was going to, and stupidly I was out with Mia. Long story short Mia got me drunk...and..."He spoke, tears starting to slip down his cheeks. My heart was breaking seeing him like this. "She only realized I was drunk after she got in the car. And by then it was to late." He continued, grabbing my hand for support. "We crashed, and I was the only one who survived." He said. He bursted out into tears and crashed into my arms. Oh my god.
