Pieces of Time

Michael's POV

For a moment, the three of us stood there in silence. The people rushing through the airport with their luggages seemed to stop and everything was awkward.

Calum came rushing up to Ashton, breaking the tension.

"Who's this?" Ashton asked gesturing to Winter.

"You don't know me?" She asked in shock.

I glanced at Calum and we knew we had to do something quick before this shit got worse.

"Um-" Ashton started. "Luke wants us to get going!" Calum yelled trying to move Ashton away.

"Wait!" Winter yelled trying to move toward Ashton, but I grabbed her arm and stopped her. "Ashton!" She yelled.

Ashton turned around confused before Calum rushed him back toward Luke.

"Let go of me!" Winter viciously yelled trying to open my hand with her little fingers.

"I will if you promise to listen." I warned. "You cannot go after Ashton."

"How do you even know him? Are you friends? For how long? Where has he been all this time? With you?" She yelled drawing attention to us.

"Shut up, you're making a scene!" I warned.

"Fuck off celebrity!" Winter yelled, "I thought he was gone!" She continued to scream.

"Shut up and listen!" I shouted sitting her down on some nearby seats.

Ashton's POV

"Who was that?" I asked Calum as he continued to push me through the airport.

"Who?" Calum laughed. "That girl? It was probably some person Michael just met." He shrugged.

"You've always been a terrible liar. She looked at me like she knew me. But I've never even met her!" I was confused and needed answers. Although I had never met her before, she seemed familiar in a strange way. She looked at me with desperation and shock. I needed to know who she was.

"Maybe she saw us on tour." Calum shrugged as he made us walk faster with each step.

"No, she didn't seem like a fan." I said.

"Well um- LUKE!" Calum yelled with joy.

"I expected you guys to come back with Michael." He sighed.

"Nicole is coming with us." John said indifferently.

"That's great! Luke can I have a word?" Calum rushed.

Luke and Calum stepped outside the airport leaving John and I alone.

"It's getting late, do you want to just pick the seats?" John asked.

"Yeah why not." I shrugged trying to take my mind off of what happened.

The lads were up to something and I was going to find out what it was.
