A/n: Double update. I'm gonna change the title of this book to If You Don't Know. You'll understand later.
...

      There was a light knock on my bedroom door.

"Come in!" I called, not looking up from my algebra homework.

   I felt two arms wrap around my waist and someone pepper kisses all over my neck.

"Stop it, Cal!" I giggled.

"Not until you stop with that homework a love me!" He laughed in return.

"Fine, fine. What do you want to do?"

"I want to take you to lunch. How's Nandos sound?" 

"Sounds great. When are we going?"

"Now,"

   He lifted me up with ease, placing me on his back so he could give me a piggyback ride to his car. I loosely wrapped my arms around his neck while humming the tune of 'What's My Age Again' by Blink-182.

"Okay, c'mon, Princess, I gotta put you down." Calum sighed while tapping my thigh as a signal to jump off.

"Okay," I groaned.

I climbed off of his back and into the car. Once were were both buckled into the car, Calum put in an All Time Low cd and we began driving.

"I wanna play like them one day." I beamed.

"I doubt you will." Calum muttered.

"What do you mean?"

"Well for starters, they're a band and you aren't. Secondly, they have a thing called talent, you however, don't. Your voice is too pitchy, your guitar playing is choppy, and your songs are stupid." Calum stated.

"Really?" I asked, starting to get self conscious.

"Yeah. I don't understand why you spend so much time trying to practice when you never improve." Calum snapped.

"I-I don't either."

"Then don't anymore!"

"But what if other people like me?"

"Oh trust me, they won't. You're pathetic, telling yourself lies that people might actually like your shitty singing."

"They could."

"Not a chance! Now shut up so I can concentrate."

I looked at my lap. I didn't understand why he couldn't just tell me I was bad in a nicer way. He was always harsh with everything and everyone. Especially me.

   I woke up, in someone's arms with someone stroking my hair. It took me second, but I realised I was crying and trembling in Michael's arms while Ashton ran his long fingers through my hair.

"What happened, love?" Michael asked.

"C-Calum." I said, calming down.

"That fucking prick ruined you. You have fucking nightmares about him, for God's sake!" My green eyed friend ranted.

"Calm yourself, Mikey." Ashton said.

"I'm sorry but he's a fucking cunt. I want to rip out his intestines currently."

I giggled at my friends, a small smile on my face, making my dimple show. Ashton and Michael cooed, the latter poking the indent of my dimple with his pale finger. In this moment, everything was okay. We were happy, laughing. But it wouldn't be that way for long because life isn't like that. It'll allow you some happiness only to make you have to climb a, metaphorical, mountain.

"Well I ordered pizza. You're all welcome. And I'll attempt to play FIFA with you, Luke, because it'll make you happy that you beat me at a video game." Michael stated.

"Yay! Thank you, Mikey." I grinned.

"This is adorable. But seriously when is the pizza gonna get here. I'm dying of starvation." Ashton laughed.

"Oh well. Looks like I'm gonna have to make a banner for your wake. Does 'Yay he's gone' sound good?" I giggled.

Ashton flicked me off playfully while Michael chuckled. The doorbell rang and Michael dumped me on the floor, him and Ashton racing to get the food. I sighed, stood up and wandered out of my room. They had just payed the pizza girl when I came out to the living room. We opened the pizza box, grabbed three beers, and started watching The Princess Bride since that was what came on when Michael turned the TV on.

After we finished our food, Michael and I began to play FIFA while Ashton went on tumblr on his laptop.

-

I jumped off the couch and did a tiny victory dance. I had beat Michael at FIFA eight times in one sitting.

"I won again! Now the winner gets cuddles, yes?" I smiled.

"I suppose. Only if I'm big spoon though." Michael chuckled.

"Sure, c'mon, Ash, cuddle session." I said.

"Alright, be there in a sec." He said, logging out of tumblr and off his computer.

    We crawled onto my bed and cuddled together. I was in the middle with my face buried into Ashton's chest, while Michael was spooning me, him being the big spoon. Ashton's arms were around us both and we must've fallen asleep like that because next thing I knew it was morning.
......
A/n: SO FLUFFY IM CRYING. I think I'm gonna have Ash, Mike, and Luke be in a relationship and cuddle and act like they're dating and stuff but it's all platonic. Let me know what you think. Bye lovelies!:3
