"We're leaving now. Send back up to England if we aren't back in 5 days."
That was Luke's last words before him and the rest of the lads left the fort and flew off to Europe.
Europe.
I could only dream about going there. I never had the money to do so and now I had a shot, but of course Luke had other plans for me.
I tore my eyes away from the tv and glanced at the clock slightly above it. 10 pm sharp. Luke left about 1 hour ago. I let out a sigh and leaned back against the couch.
I was depressed to say the least. All I could think about was Jennifer and what she was doing right now. Was Brad forcing her to have sex with him? Was she being beaten? Or maybe she was lying dead on a bed and waited to be buried.
The thought of that gave me shivers and I pulled my sleeves down my cold hands. I was wearing that stupid grey shirt I had worn on Christmas Eve, but it happens to be my favourite shirt now. It was all I had left.
Suddenly Ashton appeared from behind me and sat down next to me on the couch.
"Hi." He muttered and relaxed his arm on the back of the sofa and gave me a smile, kind of a sad smile. I nodded my head slowly. "Hey."
"So you're one of those." He chuckled and tried to light up the mood. I raised an eyebrow and glanced at him. "What?"
"You said hey instead of hello or hi."
"And you said hi. Why does it matter?" I asked.
"It doesn't, it's just interesting." He said and shook his head.
We both looked back at the tv that showed an episode of How I met your mother. Only a few seconds had gone by until Ashton tore his eyes from the tv and looked at me once again. It annoyed me. I rolled my eyes and looked back at him once again.
"Is it hi or hey?"
"Well, I would say hi, but I know Luke is a hey person and it looks like you are as well." He answered and I raised an eyebrow.
"Just because you said that I'm in the same category as Luke I'm gonna be a hello person."
"Fucking Adele." Ashton chuckled and looked back at the tv. "You judge too much." I giggled and grabbed the remote and pressed the red button. Suddenly the tv went black and I turned to Ashton.
"Well, would you judge me if I told you I just booked our flights to London?" He said and smirked at me.
My smile died down and I felt how my eyes got twice the size.
"W-wait. You didn't." I stuttered and raised my eyebrows. Did he really spent some of our last money to fly us over to attend the gala?
"I actually did. We leave tomorrow at 4 am." He smiled and I let out a loud shriek. I couldn't help myself and jumped over Ashton and hugged him with all I could.
"Thank you, thank you, thank you!!" I cried out. I was going to London and I was going to save my best friend.
"It's fine! I also have some business at the GG." He said and nuzzled his had in to my neck and hugged me tight. I owe him so much, oh my gosh. I think I love him.
I pulled away from the hug and smiled widely at him.
"I gotta go pack!" I shrieked and quickly ran up the stairs and into Luke's room.
Jennifer, I'm coming!

"Omg London." I muttered as I walked out from the airplane and stepped down on the concrete. The flight was taking a good 22 hours, but since Australia is 9 hours ahead we managed to land at Gatwick airport at 6 pm.
