Bad Blood

You made a really deep cut

Luke

I sit alone in my home, knees to my chest, and music playing from my phone. It's empty in here, no life, no happiness.

With that thought, I decided to get out. Michael, Karai, and Calum all hate me with a passion. Maybe Ash doesn't. Maybe he'll understand my point of view.

I drove to his house, seeing another car in the driveway, beside his own. It was Karai's. What is she doing here?

I peered in the window like the creeper I am and saw Karai sitting, with both legs around Ashton's waist while they were sitting on a chair. He was looking vulnerable, like he didn't want to do it, but didn't want to stop her. She was smiling, telling him something, while her hands trailed down. Ashton looked to be laughing at whatever she just said. They both began to lean in.

I knocked on the door, fighting my smirk.

Cockblocking is fun.

He answered the door, taking in my appearance before asking, "What are you doing here? "

"I needed someone to talk to. " I told him.

He sighed, shifting over to let me in.

Despite Karai's hasty glare, she looked shocked to see me.

" What is that doing here. " She gritted.

" I'm no door philosopher but I know when closure is needed. So I'm helping. "

She rolled her eyes, me doing the same to her.

" So, start us off, slut. " Karai told me.

I wanted to say mean things but I've been taught better.

"Why are you still pissed at me? " I ask her, seeing Ashton leave the room.

" You slept with my boyfriend, dumbfuck. " She squinted her eyes at me.

" I'm sorry, but really you can't even be mad. You're trying to hook up with Ashton. "

"Try? I am. " She scoffed.

" Karai I know you're hurt that I did that but please understand that I'm sorry for what happened. "

Karai sighed, and looked up at me. I got up to sit next to her.

" I never meant to hurt you like I did before. " I whispered.

She covered her face and sobbed. I wrapped my arms around her, pulling her into my chest.

I rubbed her back, taking a deep breath. Ashton walked in, seeing Karai and me in our position. She hasn't lessoned her crying, so Ashton went to get her a towel.

I have her the towel, her drying her face, looking down.

" I gotta go. " She told me in a broken whisper.

" You want me to... come with you? "

She shrugged, getting up. She hugged Ashton, him kissing her cheek, whispering something in her ear.

She gave me one final look before leaving.

" You're gonna follow her, aren't you? "Ash smirked.

" Duh. " I rolled my eyes leaving his house.

It's sorry it's short. My mom took my phone and she gave it back.
