Black Roses. (Punk 5SOS) *COMPLETED*

Black Roses~17

Calum and I had stayed together for a while, wherever I went, he went, wherever he went, I went.

"Do you want me to make you lunch?" He asked, I nodded and we walked downstairs. I was wearing his hoodie and a pair leggings. When we got downstairs my mum was in therapy with Michael, Luke was asleep on the couch.

"Why is he down here?" I questioned, Ashton who was sat watching him.

"This is where he slept all night, he's had no nightmares yet." Ashton smiled, he fucking smiled.

"Really? no nightmares?" I grinned back and looked down at the beautiful blonde boy I called my friend.

"Your mum really is a miracle worker, I have anger management and I haven't hit anyone in over a month, Scarlett, do you know how great this is?!" I was so proud they were all getting better, glancing into Michael's session and it seems, no new marks, no crying, just a happy Michael.

It was all great and fun but then I realised. They would go home when cured. All four of them, would travel back to Australia and carry on with normal lives.

"Wait! You can't leave me." I began to hyperventilate, with no boys I was alone. Keelan had died, my dad worked all his life, I would be left with some other kid who needs help.

"Scarlett, when we got here that's all you ever wanted." Ashton reminded me. I couldn't help but want them to stay.

My heart ached at the thought of Calum gone, it didn't make sense to me. All I could think about was how lonely I would be when they left.

I didn't want to think about it any longer, so I went to make food in the kitchen. Calum followed, he engulfed me in a hug and I didn't know I was crying until a sob escaped my lips, they couldn't leave me, not now not ever.

"What's this?" Ashton said picking up me file.

I watched as he read it and replayed it out loud.

"What the hell?

Name: Scarlett Rose Johnson (originally Jones.)
Age at start: 3
Eye colour: Blue
Hair colour: N/a black wig
Blood type: B-
In for: Scarlett was attacked by her mum with acid at age 3, her mother left her in the forest, hence where Mrs Johnson had found her." Michael had stepped out of the office and my mother hung over the door.

Everything had come to a stop. The silence haunting everyone. I could feel multiple eyes burning into my soul. I didn't know what else to do, but I gently pulled off my wig. Luke had woken up around this point and was watching me. Gasps and sighs were heard from this room as I watched Ashton note everything he'd seen.

"You aren't Mrs Johnson's?" He whispered, I shook my head, lifted up my shirt.

"A mother wouldn't leave these marks on a child," I whimpered. Calum was quick to embrace me. "I'm sorry you didn't know. But I'm still normal, just like you."

Each boy looked a little disheartened but showed empathy.

"Scarlett, I suggest you go take a long walk." My mum said, I nodded and pulled on Calum's arm. He followed me, grabbing my wig and helped me slide it on.

We went in a random direction and Calum began to brighten my mood when he began to mess around. We arrived at this field with a couple of Pylons in. He began climbing it.

"Cal that's dangerous!" I yelled, he simply laughed but that was before I heard the electric.

"CALUM GET DOWN!" I screamed and just before I got on to pull him down he was zapped falling to the ground shaking. His eyes closed and I began shaking him.

"Cal! Wake up! Calum! PleasE!"

His eyes opened.

"Who the hell is Calum?!" He was angry. I screamed before getting up and running home, I didn't like Aaron but an angry  seemed worse. When I arrived home I explained everything.

"We'll just wait till Calum comes back."

"That's the problem." Ashton spoke. "Getting shocked was how Calum got Aaron."

"Yes and so what?"

"He's never woken as Aaron."
