They say you only live once, and if you do it right, once should be enough.

I don't know who the hell they were, but right now I'm starting to doubt myself and my entire life. I'm doing nothing with my life, sitting here with Luke and Michael playing Fifa, they were playing I was more just watching.

I hated Fifa.

I wanted to do something more with my life, save someone. No I didn't want to dress as kick ass and go around getting into gang fights. Hell no.

I mean actually saving some one's life. "Oi, stop day dreamin' will ya. Your supposed to making sure Michael doesn't cheat!" The blonde boy yelled, throwing a few chips his way.

Michael chuckled, "You're just mad I'm kicking your ass fairy boy." See, this was my life. Don't get me wrong I love them, but I want to be someone. Mum got me this journal thing, saying it would help me with me clear my thoughts.

That's bullshit. She just wants to be nosey

"Ash." Luke whined. "Tell him to stop calling me that, it was one time and we were like six." Luke's referring to the time we all went trick or treating, long story short. He went as a fairy.

Michael scoffed, "It was two years ago!"

I stood up from the couch, closing my journal and tucking it in between the pillows, stepping over a grumbling luke, and pulling out the game wires. "You did not just fucking do that! Do you not understand that we didn't save that!" Luke yelled. Oops.

I shrugged. "Get up, were going out." I lightly kick Michael, who's mumbling something about how God was testing his patience.

I run quickly up the steps, tossing a shirt over my head. I walked into my room, and pulled out a few outfits. "Whoa, someone's showin' off." A small voice laughed. I glanced out my window seeing my neighbor peering out of hers.

"Says the one looking into my window, stalker status much?"

Emily laughed, "You know me so well! We on tonight ? Big day superstar." You see the thing is I was kind of in a band. It was small though, we weren't well known.

But I just happened to have the best girlfriend in the entire world. And her dad works for sonny, so she got us a gig.

This was a once in a life time shot, I couldn't don't screw this up. "What if we don't make it?" I ask, playing with the ties on my wrists.

I hear my girlfriend sigh, "There's always that possibility. You could never make it."

My frown depended. "Gee thanks, damn you could have lied." She laughed. "Ash, there's always those 'what if's' in life. What if I had never agreed to move with my mom. I wouldn't have met you, what if I agreed to take that job, I wouldn't be here, what if-"

"Yeah yeah I get it." I stopped her, the though of me never meeting her made my stomach churn. "Don't say that okay, I couldn't - I couldn't think of a life without you."

I look up, seeing her look down. "Ash, I have something to tell you. But not this okay? I'll see you tonight."

I nodded, feeling slightly worried. "Are you okay?" She didn't say anything, just smiled, closing her window.

I hated worrying.

I hated feeling left out of things. She's always done this, we've been together for about three years now. I can still remember the day we met, I ever so gracefully ran into her while I was being chased by luke.

Luke annoys me.

But not as much as Michael.

"Ashton ! Tell Michael to get the hell off of me!" Speaking of the idiots. I sigh, tugging on a shirt and running back down. I stopped quickly at the sight in front of me.

Michael had managed to get Luke into a head lock, he was now sitting on the blonde. "Let go of him Michael" I sighed. "Yeah, let go of him Michael!" Luke whined.

Michael laughed, letting go. "You tossers are no fun. I miss Calum." He said sadly. We all missed him. He was the sane one of us. And now he's gone.

"It was for the best, he's okay now." Little did others know Calum had suffered from some really bad depression, we all lived together, and Calum would just keep coming home later and later each day, until one day he didn't.

We were out all night trying to find him, we looked everywhere. We were just about to give up when Michael noticed something in the back yard. It was Calum, he was sitting by the only tree back there, when we got to him there was just so much blood.

By the time the ambulance got there Calum was long gone. I may have held his hand the entire time, even if I didn't feel the pressure of him holding it back. Luke may have sang his favorite song, even if Calum didn't sing along, Michael may have screamed at him to wake up, even though calum couldn't hear anymore.

"Do you think about him?"

Yes

"No."

My phone buzzed.

Ashton I can't wait, we need to talk now. -Baby McMuffins xx
