Sweet Nothing (5SOS)

Chapter 8

This is the calm before the storm,

Three words through your bedroom door.

And everybody knows that,

It is the place to start.

Why say something safe,

When I can blow you away.

It's a game only liars play. -Blue Eyes Don't Lie. You Me At Six. 

Juliet's POV

I felt so much better after apologizing to Ashton. Now there won't be a silence between us, then again I'm still not sure what to think about hanging out later. What Luke said always comes back into my head. I really need to talk to someone about this. Only if Clair was here.

After breakfast Michael and I went into the game room. I want to tell Michael about the the almost kiss this morning. I wonder If I could trust him. After losing a game on the X-box, I am going to talk to him. I have to, I have to share my feelings with someone, But Clair not here so Michael is the only choice I have.

"Michael?" I said.

"Yeah?" he answered.

"Can I tell you something?" I said.

"Yeah, sure you can tell me anything," Micheal said.

After him saying that it made feel like I could trust him with anything. I have  this feeling that he won't tell the boys either, which I'm thankful for.

"Luke and I almost kissed this morning," I said then looked at the ground.

"What?!?" Michael's eyes widened..

"Yeah, we almost kissed after he told me Ashton was a player," I said.

"Wait... He told you Ashton was a player?" Michael asked.

"Yeah, and he said he cared about me alot," I said.

Michael started laughing. "Ashton's not a player. He's had one girlfriend. And that was a year and a half ago."

"Why would Luke lie?"

"I see whats going on here!" Michael said.

"You do?" I said kind of surprised.

I had no idea what was going on. Did Michael know something I didn't? Clearly he did because I have no idea what is happening.

"Yeah, Ashton isn't like that at all, Luke is just jealous and doesn't want you to date him," Michael explained.

Why would he be jealous? I don't think he likes me like that. I wonder why he would lie to me. Its probably cause I didn't tell him about my bruise or maybe he is really jealous. I mean we did almost kiss this morning.

"So your saying it's completely fine if I hang out later with Ashton?" I asked.

"Yeah Ashton a great guy, you'll have fun," Michael said.

"Thanks Michael, I feel a lot better now, talking about it helped," I said.

"No problem, anytime you need to talk I'll be here for you," Michael said.

It was the truth I did feel a lot better. Now I don't feel so worried about hanging out with Ashton. After what Michael said he sound like a great guy. I will just have to talk to Luke later.

Luke's POV

I am hanging out with Calum and Ashton by the pool. The twins are swimming. I am still mad at Ashton. He thinks he can have everything he wants. It pissed me off.
