Holding On (Janoskian Fanfiction)

Chapter Twenty Four

Elodie's P.O.V

It was nearly midnight and I was still dancing with Beau. Lewis went home about an hour ago and me and Beau were completly drunk like everyone else in the room.

We started to get tired and Beau went to get a drink. I went to the edge of the room and started talking to an old friend from high school called Nat. She congratulated me on the single and told me about her career. She was a children book illustrator and she was pregnant with another one of my friends baby, Miguel, and they were married.

I congratulated her and noticed she wasn't drunk, which was good.

I left her and went to see Jess who was snogging Skip in the corner. I tapped her on the shoulder and she turned around.

"Hey Baby!" she cried.

"Wassup!" I called and pulled her away from Skip and led her to the dance floor.

"Do you like th party then?"

"I love it, thank you!" I said, hugging her.

"No problem, I can't wait to hear your song! What's it even about?" she asked.

"Beau and I and how much I love him!"

"Aww cute!" she exclaimed.

"I don't know how I'm going to be able to let him leave in 2 weeks! I love him soo much!"

"Same with Skip and I!" she began. "But if they really love us and we love them, we'll be able to stay together and find a way through it!"

"That's the deepest thing you've ever said!" I giggled and left the dance floor to go outside.

I felt the breeze hit my face and I immediatly felt more sober. I looked around the garden and noticed James and Jai sitting on chairs, looking up at the stars.

I stumbled over to them and sat down on the floor inbtween them. "Hey guys!" I  said.

"Hello," they said insync. James looked at me and laughed. "Wow, you're drunk!"

I laughed and agreed, they were a bit drunk, but not as bad as I was. "You enjoying the party?" Jai asked.

"Yesssss!" I said, lengthing the s.

James handed me a bottle of water and I thanked him. I really needed to sober up, so I took a big swig of the water and enjoyed the feeling of the water sooth my dry throat.

I immediatly felt better and just sat looking up at the sky with the boys and we talked about Australia.

"Do you really have kangeroos everywhere?" I asked.

They laughed at the comment and shook their heads. "Ohhh," I sighed.

"Do you drink tea and eat scones everyday?" Jai asked, making me to laugh.

"No! That's sterotypical!" I laughed.

"So is the kangeroo comment!" James chuckled.

We just sat there talking and laughing and I carried on drinking the water and sobering up.

I got up after 10 minutes to go to the toilet after drinking all the water and I made my way inside and queued up.

Luke stood infront of me and I started talking to him. He went to the toilet and then I went. I washed my hands and walked out the bathroom. Luke stood outside waiting for me and we walked to the kitchen to get some more water.

I was getting better and Luke was almost sober.

"Where's Beau?" Luke asked, looking around the room.

"I don't know actually!?" I gasped and Luke laughed.

"Lets go find him then!" he screamed and we looked in every room on the ground floor and basement.

I grabbed my bottle of water and we walked upstairs. Luke said he'd check the bathroom and the boys bedrooms. I nodded and went to my room. The lights were off, but I could see two people making out ontop of the bed.

That's disgusting! In my bed!

I flicked on the light and saw Ashlee was the girl. Of course. They didn't seem fazed by the light and they carried on kissing.

I was about to turn and leave when I heard the bohy groan. I slowly turned around and took a closer look at him. He had brown hair, medium build. No, it couldn't be.

I dropped the bottle and Ashlee looked up and smirked. Beau pulled her back down to carry on kissing her. I felt like my heart had been ripped out of my chest, ripped to pieces and run over by a truck.

I was frozen in place and I watched them kiss eachother, in my bed. Tears overflowed and trailed down my face, cooling down my warm cheeks. I took a step back and tried to leave silently, but I stepped on a squeaky board and Beau's head snapped up.

I felt my body shake and Beau's eyes widened in realisation of what he was doing. I shook my head and ran out the door and into Luke. "Elodie, what's wrong?" he exclaimed, looking  at my tear streaked face. I pointed to what I had just seen.

He looked in the room and his jaw dropped open. "ELODIE, WAIT!" Beau screamed, jumping out of the bed.

I ran.

I sprinted out my own house and left what I had just seen behind, but the images were on my mind. I felt the tears just coming out like a waterfall.

I heard Beau run out the house and call my name but I was too far away. I took my heels off and carried on running. To Lewis's, he'd know what to do.

I ran through his gate and climbed up the railing to his window. I knocked and waited. A light flicked on and he opened his window. "Elodie!" he gasped and pulled me through his window. "What happened?" he asked.

"Beau.... A-A-Ashlee, s-s-s-snogging!" I managed to gasp inbetween sobs and I cried into his shoulder until my eye lids began to drop shut.

Lewis lay me down on his bed and I fell into a tear filled dream and the imags of Beau and Ashlee flashed infront of me. Why did he do that?
