Mr Hood

Chapter 23

YOUR POV

I charged down to his office and when I slammed into his reception, Marley jumped up.

"This won't take long," I told her.

I stormed into his office, slamming the door open.

"You think you can just - "

I stopped mid-sentence, seeing his office was empty.

I turned back to Marley and she just shrugged.

"Where is he?" I asked, already knowing the answer but needing to hear it anyway.

"I don't know. I got here and he was already gone," she explained.

I huffed as I pushed past her and went straight for the gym.

That was the only other place I could honestly think of.

Slamming the doors open I scanned the empty gym.

No sign of him.

I went to the locker rooms, and checked the showers first.

He wasn't there.

Moving back to the lockers, I noticed his was left open and as I neared it, I gasped.

His locker door was hanging off and was dented, like someone had hit it.

At a closer inspection I saw blood and I jumped back in disgust, covering my mouth.

What the heck had happened in here?

As I pondered on what could have taken place here, I remembered something Ashton had said.

I heard them arguing in the gym

Heard them arguing

In the gym

Michael and Calum

Had Michael been injured?

Had Calum done something to him?!

My fists curled up tightly and I felt the anger coming back at full force.

My only assumption was that he'd beat Michael up.

He'd done that because of me.

Again, I'd been the cause of distress to Michael.

It was all my fault.

I fell to my knees on the floor and sobbed.

Why did I always seem to bring bad luck everywhere I went?

ASHTONS POV

After an hour had passed and Daisy still hadn't returned, I guessed she was okay with Calum.

Her phone was still on the desk and I was beginning to wonder where she was.

What if she hadn't got to Calum?

What if she had ran into Michael?

I jumped up from my seat, grabbing her phone and ran to his office.

Marley looked up when I entered but grimaced and looked back at her computer.

"Did Daisy come in here?" I asked, panting.

"She did. But Calum wasn't here. I think she went to the gym," she huffed, without looking up.

I rolled my eyes and raced down to the gym.

Damn woman!

I bounded into the gym, and called out her name.

"Daisy!" I shouted, as I scanned the area.
