Six months later...

I check my hair one last time in the mirror before I grab my purse and leave for my job at the local Forever 21.

The drive to work is about 20 minutes so I plug in my phone and put it on shuffle.

°•°•°•

Since being with the boys I haven't returned to drinking, or turned to drugs.

I left and decided to move on and get my shit together.

The constant calls and texts stopped so I assume they've moved on too.

I'm now with my boyfriend of 4 months, Cody, and he's one of the best things that's ever happened to me, I told him about the boys and he helped me get past that.

I'm happier than I ever was with the boys, even though I was 'happy' at times it never lasted.

With Cody it's different, the way he kisses me, touches me, holds me, it's different, it's loving not greedy.

We're inseparable, when we're at work we're constantly texting, I've gotten in trouble more than once but it doesn't stop anything.

It's really nice to have someone that's mine, and I'm his, I'm not an object anymore, I'm a human being now, with feelings and emotions that matter.

We've only had sex a couple of times and it's not sex, we were making love.

I'm more in love than I've ever been and it's like floating on clouds, knowing that even if you slip through the clouds someone will catch you.

What I had with the boys is over, and I'll never go back.

Michael's POV

"Michael get off your fat ass, it's been 6 months." Ashton yells through the door to the back room of the tour bus.

"Shut up, I'm just tired, we just got done with a show." I mumble, not making any effort to answer Ashton right now.

"We're going out and you're fucking coming with us, maybe you can find a hot chuck to take back to the hotel tonight." I can sense the smirk through the door, he probably thinks I'll jump to the opportunity, he's fucking wrong.

"Go fuck off." I yell, "this is all your fucking fault anyway."

"C'mon Mikey, just come out with us, it'll calm you down." Ashton starts to beg and whine.

"I'm not sleeping with anyone though." I say, getting up and sliding the door open, revealing my disheveled image to Ash.

"Not like that you aren't, go change and fix your period colored hair." Ashton orders, I scoff and do as I am told because I know he would of just dragged me out of my room anyway.

I'm ready within the next ten minutes wearing a random band shirt and black skinny jeans, his red hair now teased and perfect.

"Glad to see you out of that cave." Calum laughs, slapping me on the back.

"Go fuck a pole Calum." I shrug his hand off.

"Woah mate I was just messing around." Calum raises his hands.

"Were you 'just messing around' when you made Adrielle leave?" I counter, swiftly walking out of the bus and to the car after.

°•°•°•

"Take us to the nearest bar." Ashton tells the driver, leaning back in his seat.

Calum slides the little window seperating the driver and the back, then leans back in his seat as well pulling out his phone.

Luke climbs in last, as Michael had already gotten into the passenger seat, away from. The other boys.

▪°▪°▪

"Thanks man, you just gonna hang here?" Michael asks the driver, jony, who's actually a cool guy, they have the same intrest in music and television.

"Yeah, maybe I'll swing by for a bit but I don't see the point since I can't drink." He shrugs.

"Alright, see you later." Mikey shuts the door and stands up from his slouching position.

"Did Mikey make a new friend yet?" Luke mocks selfishly.

Michael walks right past the other boys into the bar.

Walking to the counter he greets the bartender, "Gimme anything that can get me drunk, quickly."

The bartender who's name tag reads 'Brandon' nods and gets to work, filling a shot glass with mysterious liquid, mixing it with a few other things before handing it over to Michael who pays him before taking a sip.

3 shots later Michael is more than buzzed and looking for someone to dance with, Adrielle in the back of his mind.

•°•°•°•°

"Cody, I'm home babe." Adrielle swings the door open.

"Welcome home baby." Cody takes her bag and hangs it on the hook, "How was work?" He asks, pressing a soft kiss to her forehead.

"I missed you." Adrielle mumbles, cupping his face in her small hands and bringing their lips together.

"I missed you too." Cody mumbles into the kiss.

°○°○°○°

"Get out." I hiss between gritted teeth.

"Babe, I'm so sorry, it was a mistake, I was drunk." Cody protests.

"I said fucking get out!" I raise my voice.

"C'mon, we can work this out, please baby, I love you."

"Get the hell out of my apartment before I call the cops." I scream, at the top of my lungs pointing at the door.

"Okay, okay. I'm leaving, but don't come crawling back to me when you get yourself in trouble like before."

"It's none of your business what the fuck I do." I shout, slamming the door behind him.

I hear his engine Rev and drive away, I fall back onto the couch we'd been making out only minutes before.

I mentally scream at myself, I should've given him another chance, he was drunk...

But I know he's old enough and mature enough to control himself.

I stand up and slam my fists against the wall, screaming, tears stream down my face and off my chin, dampening the collar of my oversized t-shirt, the one remaining piece reminding me of the boys.

I slip my phone out of the waistband of my shorts and dial the familiar number.

---

"Hello? New phone who dis?"

"Michael? It's Adrielle."
