I was definitely not prepared for what I walked into.

Chairs were flipped over, glasses were smashed, the couch was sideways, but there was no one in sight.

"Calum?" I yelled, hoping he would answer. I began exploring my house, looking for Ashton and Calum, or even madison, Michael, or Luke.

I made it upstairs to my room where I saw Ashton curled in a ball, crying his eyes out, with a concerned and slightly confused Calum sitting beside him.

"Ashton?" I said quietly.

"Why?" He said in an almost inaudible whisper.

"Why what?" I said.

"Why did she leave me?" He said crying again.

I moved him over and sat next to him. He immediately grabbed on to me and cried into my chest. I played with his hair a little, which calmed him down a little bit. I looked at Calum and he looked angry. I looked at him with a look that said not with him like this. He knew exactly what I meant and relaxed before laying down on the pillow beside me.

"Ash?" I said quietly.

"Yeah?" He said even quieter.

"I'm sorry for what she did to you. She had no right to. She told me she had changed, stopped breaking hearts because she could. I would've never introduced you had I known she was going to do this" i continued to play with his curly hair.

"I liked her so much, he'll I maybe even loved her, and she blew something way out of proportion" he said sniffling slightly.

"I know. You deserve so much better than her" I said. He nodded slowly. I looked over at Calum to see he was looking at me with a small smile. I smiled back, slightly confused at his sudden perkiness.

I love you he mouthed

I love you more I mouthed back.

I looked down at Ashton to see he had fallen asleep on me.

I looked back at Calum to see he had fallen asleep on the pillow next to me. It was only 8pm but after the day Ashton had I wasn't surprised he wanted to sleep.

I texted my dad saying Ashton and Calum were staying the night again. He responded make good choices I rolled my eyes.

I attempted to get up but Ashton just held on tighter, so I was forced to stay in my place. Just before I fell asleep I heard the front door open.

"You're messing with me"

"No I'm dead serious"

"There's no way"

They're footsteps were getting louder as were their voices. There was a knock on my door.

"Come in" I said quietly.

Michael and Luke were laughing until the door opened and they saw Ashton.

"I'll explain later, he needs to sleep" they both nodded before walking back to the door. That was until Michael decided that it would be fun if all four boys slept in my bed, just like old times.

"Michael I swear to all that's holy if you wake either of them up I will chop off your balls and feed them to you" I threatened.

He raised his arms and defense before snuggling up to Calum, Luke still standing in the doorway looking down at his phone.

"Who you texting Luke?" I said raising my eyebrow.

"Oh just uh a friend" he said blushing.

"If you thought of her as just friend you wouldn't be blushing" I smirked.
