3.6

After my whole outburst with Michael and my father I decided to stuff pillows under my blanket to make it look like I was there, asleep, and proceeded to sneak out the window. I slid down the side of the house and carefully reached the ground.

I walked over to Cassie's and didn't even bother knocking before walking through the front door.

Once I entered, I saw Mr.Dad and Mrs.Mum asleep on the couch together as the tv was playing. I smiled at them, admiring their relationship.

I helped myself up the stairs and down the hall to Cassie's room. I didn't bother to knock on her door either, their house was basically my house.

Or so I thought.

Once I entered I saw a shirtless Calum Hood hovered over a shirtless Cassie, their bottom half covered by Cassie's blanket.

"OH MY GOD" I jumped in surprise.

"WILLOW?!" They both yelled. I closed the door immediately and left. This just wasn't a good night I guess.

I exited the household, walking back down the street. I placed my hands in the pockets of my sweatshirt and didn't know where I was going. I decided to just go home, I guess I had no other choice. Cassie was my only friend now that Luke found out about Michael and I dating.

I guess Ashton was my friend, I didn't know anything about him though. I didn't even know where he lived so it's not like I could go there.

I walked up my doorstep and got the spare key that was taped under the mailbox and slowly crept in. I locked the door behind me and quickly but quietly walked up the stairs. I entered my bedroom and closed the door behind me, mentally praising myself for not waking anyone.

"Willow?" A voice asked I then saw Michael standing at my bed, holding my blankets and pillow in his hands, with worry staining his face.

"Michael, what are you doing?" I asked running over to him.

"I thought he took you" he said trying to keep himself from bursting into tears. He threw himself on me and I engulfed him in my arms, making circles on his back trying to calm him.

"I'm here, shh, he's dead" I said sitting down on the bed.

"Then where'd you go?" He asked in a voice similar to a child.

"I went to go see Cassie but she erm-.. wasn't home" I said.

"Why did you go see her?" He asked.

"Just wanted to get out of the house for a bit and cool down" I said. "Settle down though, I wasn't taken, I'm back now, okay?" I assured him. He nodded and lifted his head off of me. I locked eyes with him and wiped away his fallen tears with my thumb. "Okay?" I asked. "I'm here" I reminded him.

He cracked a small smile and meekly rested his head on my shoulder. I continued to make circles on his back, calming him the rest of the way.

"Can I stay with you?" He asked.

"Of course you can, go get your pajamas" I said.

"Oh my gosh.... a slumber party... do we get to have a pillow fight?" He asked, his mood instantaneously

"Anything you want" I giggled.

"FOOD AND PILLOWS!" He yelled running out of the room. I laughed and shook my head at the weirdo I that I was lucky enough to call mine.

I got up and went to my dresser to get pajamas of my own, shuffling through the fuzzy clothing and settling on a matching shirt and shorts with penguins on them. I grabbed pillows and blankets from my closet and carried them to the bed, then proceeding to turn on the Christmas lights that were hanging on my walls. I smiled at the beautiful, tumblr worthy scenery and turned on my tv, switching to Netflix.

Once Michael came in he immediately tackled me on the bed and smacked me in the face with a pillow.

"MICHAEL NOT FAIR! YOU HAD AN ADVANTAGE!" I yelled trying to push him off of me.

"Sore loser" he said stopping the repetitive contact of the pillow on my face. He got off of me and cuddled next to me. "No more pillow fight because I won and I want love" he said. I rolled my eyes and laughed, cuddling the idiot.

"Have you ever heard of 'Mean Girls'?" I asked.

"No" he replied.

"Then I have found the movie that we're watching oh my gosh you're going to love it" I said scrolling through Netflix and clicking on the movie.

This chapter really sucked, my apologies.

Qotd: what's your favorite 'Mean Girls' quote? Mine is "is butter a carb?"

Bonus Qotd: WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THE NEW COVER?!?! The girl on it is named Jordan, she's one of my best friends and I took a picture of her for the cover because I needed a new cover and she was standing at an angle that reminded me of the story so i took a picture of her and she helped me decide on this cover. Jordan, who is implied to be Willow, Michael and Victors shadow are included on the cover!

Love you all and don't be silent readers
