2 Weeks Later

The side walks were dark with only the dim street lights and the occasional strike of lighting to bring light to the darkness. By now my legs ached and breathing had become a struggle. The light rain suddenly turned into a down pour. I sigh and decide to take a seat on the curb, only to become drenched in water by passing cars.

Tears were now falling down my face faster than before. This really was a shitty night. Perhaps, one of the worst nights of my life. My parents banned me from ever coming home. With no car, no dry clothes, not even a phone, I was now making my way to my older brother's house.

My brother and I are only two years apart so, we've always had each other. We had a great relationship as kids We still do but, we're not as close. I'm just praying he lets me stay over at least until I can afford a place.

I walk up the small set of stairs, scared and nervous as I could ever be. I wipe the tears off my face and move strands of my damp hair out my face. I reach my hand out to knock on the door as a crack of thunder booms in the distance. Startling me, I pull my hand away and face the dim lighted streets only to get a glimpse of lighting striking. I take a deep breath and finally knock on the wooden door. Within a couple of minutes, the door creaks open revealing a dark, curly headed figure.

"Liliana?" He questions. Before I answer, the porch light is turned on. His green eyes, filled with sympathy, widen and an expression of guilt is painted onto his face. "What happened Lily?"

"Mum and dad kicked me out." I mumble. He frowns and pulls me in for a hug.

"I'm sorry. Come inside. I don't want you getting sick."

Ashton guides me over to one of the couches and sits me down. "Stay here, I'll go get you some dry clothes, tea, and a blanket." He explains to me.

I simply nod my head and he leaves the room. In attempt to get comfortable, I lean back and allow my body to sink into the couch. I close my eyes and try to relax.

A light tap on my shoulder startles me, causing me to sit up and my eyes to widen. "Lily?" Someone whispers.

My eyes adjust to the darkness of the room and I could just about make out the figure to be Calum. Him and I have always been close. Well ever since Ashton joined his band, that is.

Although it had only been two years, it felt like yesterday Cal dropped down on one knee and "proposed" to Ashton.

"Yeah, it's Lily." I whisper.

"What are you doing here, Lil? Are you crying?" He asks.

"My mum and dad kicked me out."

"I'm sorry, Lil." He replies, sitting on the couch and pulling me into a hug.

"Calum, I'm drenched in water. I don't think you want to hug me." I chuckle.

"What's a little water gonna do to me? I'm not the wicked witch of the west."

I chuckle as his hug begins to warm me up. He gives the best hugs. Sometimes I truly think he is Cal-Pal. I mean his super power is making people happy, right? That's what he does to me. Although, we're not a couple, it's more of a brother sister relationship with us.

"So, I'm assuming you're staying with us for a little while."

"Yeah- well I hope so. At least until I have money for a little apartment."

"What do you need an apartment for when you could just live with us!" He smiles.

I look down at my lap and fiddle around with my fingers. "I-I just can't. After awhile, it would just be too much." I explain to him.

"What do you mean, too much? You're just one person. It's not like you can't take care if yourself." He chuckles.

"I just can't stay here forever, Calum." I tell him.

"You're lying." He frowns, "There's a bigger reason. Spill Irwin."

"Calum, you can't tell anyone. I'll tell the rest of the boys when I'm ready, do you hear me?"

"Crystal clear."

I take a deep breath, "Calum, I'm pregnant,"

"Holy shit, who's the-"

"Calum, go back to bed. I wanna spend some time with Lily." Ashton says, interrupting Calum.

My heart begins to race as I silently pray he hadn't heard anything. Calum narrows his eyes at Ashton and then embraces me in a hug, "I'll talk to you later about this." He whispers.

Calum walks off to bed and Ashton quickly replaces him. He sits down beside me and hands me a pair of his dry clothes. It's nothing special, just a band t-shirt and sweatpants. "Thanks." I mumble, as I get up and head to the bathroom to change.

I return to the living room in dry clothes and my hair up in a pony tail. I sit back down on the couch next to Ashton and lay my head in his lap. "So," he starts, "you wanna tell me why you were kicked out?"

"Um, well. I got kicked out because your band mate thought it would be okay to impregnate me." I tell him.

"Excuse me?"

"One of your band mates thought it would be okay-"

"Don't be a smartass, I heard you. Who was it? Which one of the boys got you pregnant? Was it Calum? Oh my gosh I'm gonna beat the shit out of that little son of a bitch."

"Ashton, calm down. It wasn't Calum."

"Then who the hell was it?"

"Michael."
