Safely // M.C.

Safe.(09)

Today, everyone went Christmas shopping. We went to the mall and then all split. I bought us some tickets to go see Green Day. I was having a lot of trouble finding stuff that the boys would like.

I then saw the music shop. I wasn't about to do this.

I found a guitar that fit Michael well, it was black and had white skulls on it. Then got Luke a black and red one.

Calum got a midnight blue bass and then, Ash got a new drum set.

I spent $1,600 just on that plus 200 on Green Day tickets.

Then, I told them to ship the instruments to my mom's house. I was going to visit her tonight and set everything straight.

After were done, we all met each other back at Ashton's car.

"Ash, drop me off at my house please," I requested.

'Are you sure?' Michael mouthed to me. I nodded and Ashton did so. He waited outside whilst I went inside and saw my mom.

She was sitting at the table, eating lunch with Zac.

"Hey mommy." I said, she just sighed and didn't say anything.

I took a seat across from her, so she could see my busted lip.

"Oh my god, darling." She said, touching the mark. I winced and she pulled back quickly.

She broke.

"I'm so sorry baby. I'm so sorry. I didn't think about you when I decided to stay married to that little shit. I'm so sorry." She hugged me tight and Zac began to cry.

"Zac. Guess what?" I said, causing him to look up at me.

"What?" I could tell that he wasn't amused.

"I want you to meet some people." I said, I then stood and walked to the front door. I walked outside and told the boys to come inside.

They all did and met Zac.

"This is 5 Seconds if Summer. That's Ashton, Calum, Michael and Luke." They all smiled when I said their names.

"What about them?" He asked.

"My close friend Michael here is gunna teach me how to play guitar and then I'm gunna teach you." I said, he looked excited for a moment and then he got sad again.

"Dad got rid of my guitar, said it was a waste of a time." Zac said with sad eyes.

"Oh, I will get you one soon." I told him, he smiled and hugged me tightly.

He smiled and hugged me.

"So, are you staying the night here or?" Michael asked. I looked at my mum.

"I need to be alone. Come back on Christmas eve for the party that we have every year." Christmas was in three days.

I nodded and looked at Michael.

He nodded and I gave my mum a hug before we all climbed back into Ashton's car.

He dropped me and Michael at his house.

We went inside and straight to his room. I took out some clothes and walked into the bathroom. I laid them on the sink where Michael first kissed me.

It was a magical place. I then climbed into the shower and washed everything. I was planning on mum having her body wash that I loved, so I didn't bring mine but I brought my shampoo.

I grabbed Michael's body wash and used it. It smelt just like him, causing me to laugh. I knew he would notice.

I climbed out of the shower and put in a pair of boxer briefs that used to be my other brother, Ben.

He left when I was younger, he's 11 years older than me. Me and him haven't spoken since he found out about dad's sex slave days.

I pulled on a tie dye shirt that had a bright green alien on the front. I then took off my makeup and pulled my hair up.

I entered the bedroom and saw Michael playing more video games. I smiled and sat beside him.

He looked at me and smiled.

"Christmas eve party?" He asked.

"Yeah, every year my family comes and visits and we all have a party and drink wine and talk. It's really boring." I said.

"You gunna go?" He asked. I nodded and said, "Yes. And you are too."

"What if I don't want too." He winked st me.

"Don't act like you would let me go anywhere near that house with me and my father in the same room alone." I said, he shrugged and nodded.

"I just don't want you to get hurt." It almost hurt, how much he cared for me. How much he wanted to keep me safe.
