You Chose Mine

Chapter 18

"I'm sorry I can't come tonight" Kennedy apologised over the phone.

I sighed, "It's fine, I just haven't see you in a couple days" I told her.

"I know! How about tomorrow morning I come with you to see Isabella" I smiled; it's been forever since she has come with me so I agreed straight away.

"Tell the boys I say 'hey'" I could almost see the smile spread across her face.

"Of course I will" she made a 'mwah' noise before saying goodbye.

I hung up and stared straight ahead. I was in the parking lot of the Metro Theatre running over things I possibly could have said wrong the past couple days, Calum isn't talking to me, Luke is barely talking to me, Ashton is just as confused as I am and Michael is clueless to everything happening. I'm hoping a couple new shirts will break the wall down a little bit so I can find out what I have done because these past days without Luke have been terrible. He's all I think about, he's all I am thinking about, I miss him random texting me his ideas and cute snapchats of things Molly does.

I felt my phone vibrate in my hand.

'Get inside now...' I read from Ashton.

It's safe to say I was scared.

I came across the security and showed them my pass, they let me through with no worries but my only worry was the message I got. I knocked on the door to be met with Ashton pushing me back out the door.

I punched his arm "Ah!" he yelled.

"What the hell was that for?" I shoved my phone in his face.

"'Get in here now'? What the fuck Ashton? Are you trying to make me end up in a bed next to my aunty!" I yelled.

"Sorry! I didn't mean to scare you" I sighed.

"What's going on?" I finally asked.

"Luke thinks there's something up with us" he said.

"What?"

"Luke thinks -"

"No! I heard you..." I pinched the bridge of my nose as I closed my eyes. I could feel a migraine coming on.

"Ashton... what you sent me made me think that what was going on was a life or death situation!"

"Luke has been sulking ever since we got here. His lying on the floor staring at his phone" he told me. "I think his really upset about it"

I felt my concern about him rise.

Is he okay? Is this really about me and the thought of me being with Ashton?

"How long has he been like this?" I heard the door open to see Calum all done up in his stage clothes.

"He won't get up" he said.

"Why does he think there's something going on between us?" I asked gesturing towards Ashton and me.

He stood, silent.

"Calum don't do this to me right now" I told him.

"I saw you and Ashton holding hands at the party and I thought Luke had a right to know" he said.

I felt heat beginning to rise in my body. "Why would you say that?" I yelled.

"I think my best friend has the right to know if someone he really likes is holding hands with not only one of my other best friends but his best friend!" he yelled back.

"He was comforting me!" I told him, his mouth formed an 'O' shape before I went back to pinching the bridge of nose. I closed my eyes realising how this was going to end.
