Just Baby Scars (An Ashton Irwin Fan Fiction)

Xx Chapter 29: No Regrets xX

(A/N) Quotev and Wattpad are finally caught up lmao, enjoy!
~~Ivy's POV~~


I sighed gratefully as I reached the door of the tour bus, allowing Ashton to open it for me. I made my way up the steps and all but collapsed at the top. Ashton chucked as he stepped over me. Calum and Luke trudged in behind him, copying the same movement Ashton made to step over me. Although it felt weird not to have Michael around to do the same thing, it was for good reason's he wasn't here
*flashback to Starbucks*
"Ivy, thanks to smarty blondie over here, there's no way we're getting out." I crossed my arms slightly frustrated, he couldn't have given up that easily. Luke uneasily watched us as we brainstorm, guilt pouring off of him.
Ashton placed a hand against my back, urging me to continue thinking. Come on Ivy, dammit, you can get out of her, you know how to do it. I felt myself slightly flustered. With as many times as I had sneaked out of school, this should be easy of me. Why can't I fathom a way out of here this time?
Calum patted Michael's back, "Luke didn't mean any harm, you know that Mich-," Michael fist made harsh contact with the table in front of him, causing the Batista's to look towards us. I smiled apologetically, hoping they wouldn't release any of this out to the press. "If he didn't mean it, why the hell hasn't he apologized yet."
Everyone's attention turned towards Luke. He paled up and looked down. I bit the inside of me cheek, turning to see Michael keeping his intent glare at Luke. This is too much.
Calum opened his mouth to speak, but a placed a hand up, cutting him off.
"Michael, grow the fuck up." Everyone turned towards me. I looked directly at Michael as I spoke, watching him look at me in utter shock, he attempted to say something to me, but it was obvious he was at a loss for word. Ashton was tense beside me, unsure of what to do.
I ran a hand throw my hair, letting out an exasperated sigh. "Do you not realize how much of an ass you're being? Luke obviously feels bad enough, so rather then making it your one goal to make him feel as terrible as you possibly can, leave him the fuck alone so you can use your brain for a useful way. Like, oh, i don't know, getting the fuck out of here."
Ashton wrapped an arm around my side and squeeze slightly, signaling I had said enough. "We could leave out the back." It was barely audible in the quiet cafe, but I heard it. I tilted my head towards Luke, taking in his response. "Actually, that's a good idea Luke." He paled again as everyone looked at him yet another time tonight, "Say it louder."
He took in a deep breath, "We could leave out the back"
*End flashback*
I smiled, seeing Luke obviously happy again. He's always so cheerful around me, so to see him so hurt earlier today was hard.
Ashton cleared his throat as he reappear from the back of the bus. "Management wants to see Luke and I." I looked up at him, nodding. I small smile showed itself as I though about the times I would've been upset by management calling them, but now, I've just gotten used to it.
"What about me?" Calum remained sitting, but it was obvious he didn't want to stay here. "They didn't ask for you." Ashton's gaze flicked towards me briefly. I smiled at him, letting him know it didn't bother me what Calum said. Calum let out a small sigh and sank back into his chair. Luke walked towards the door, smiling and waving a goodbye to me. I returned the gesture before turning to Ashton.
He placed a kiss on my forehead and gave me a soft hug. "I'll be back before you know it." I smiled, nodding. "Have fun." I managed to say before the bus door closed. "Have fun? They're going to see management Ivy, not a movie." My smile fell, Calum's attitude pulling it from me.
I took a deep breath, letting his negativity brush off of me. I walked to the back of the bus, and closed the door. I changed into and walked back out, grabbing an apple off the counter. I pulled a knife out of the drawer an placed it on the counter as I looked for a cutting board.
"Do you think that's such a good idea?" I heard Calum mumble, obviously in an attempt for me not to hear. I stopped searching and turned towards him. "What?" I questioned, hoping for him to elaborate.
"Nothing," He shook his head, dismissing his previous statement. I crossed my arms, leaning my back against the counter. "Seriously Calum, what's not a good idea?" He dully looked at the table in front of him, seeming to zone out.
"I just mean," He spoke quietly, almost as if he was being watched. "Considering you and your past with blades, maybe using a sharp object isn't in your best interest."
I felt my jaw drop, bafflement filling my eyes. He did not just say that to me.
"Calum..." I bit the inside of my cheek, wary of where exactly I was going with this. "Why the fuck do you hate me?" The shock rose to my eyes the same time it came to his. So apparently, that's where I'm going with this...
He stared at me for a second, before answering. "I don't hate you." His voice lacked emotion, slightly pissing me off. "Calum how can I say this." I took in a deep breath. "If this is how you treat people you 'don't hate' then it must fucking suck to be your friend." He cringed slightly at the sound of my voice, but quickly regained his composure.
"Ivy, what's your problem, it was just a joke." I rolled my eyes and remained my defensive stance. "Calum, which part was the joke, you 'not hating me' or using my past as a punchline." He stared emptily at his phone. "Both."
By this time, there was more hurt than anger in me, and my deminer soften exponentially. "Well, neither of them were funny." He continued to blankly stare in front of him, giving me time to recognize how much stress this was actually causing and me. I took a deep breath and looked at him one more time before walking into the back, where it was quiet and calm enough for me.
~~Calum's POV~~
I walked Ashton place a kiss on Ivy's head, trying to advert eye contact. I looked down listening to her say her goodbyes to my friends.

"Have fun? They're going to management Ivy, not a movie." I took in a shaky breath, way to make conversation Cal, not at all like she thinks something is up now. I could feel her mood drop and instantly making me feel like shit. She walked to the back of the bus, closing the door behind her.

Beepidy beep

I flipped over my phone, looking to see a text from Luke
Don't do anything you'll regret. Remember who she's with...
I rolled my eyes, way to support me Luke. I bit the inside of my cheek, the silence becoming deafening to me. Finally I heard the door to the back of the bus open, and Ivy walked out. I took a minute to look her over, before tearing my eyes away. Stop it dammit, you know better. I mentally scolded myself, this is what Luke was talking about.
I watched her put an apple on the counter and pulled a knife out. "Do you think that's such a good idea?" Mentally I slapped myself in the face. Why the fuck did I say that of all things. Already regretting my statement, Ivy turned around and looked at me, crossing her arms. "What?" I prayed for a different statement to come into my brain but it didn't come.
"Nothing." The silence made me think she was giving up on pressing, only to be filled with slight irritation. "Seriously Calum, what's not a good idea?" I sighed loudly, well, no going back now. "I just mean, considering your past with blades, maybe using a sharp object isn't in your best interest." Saying it only made it sound ten times worse than it did in my head.
I refused to make eye contact, knowing it would tear me up. "Calum..." I prepared for her to cuss me out, to yell and scream, because she had every right too. "Why the fuck do you hate me?" Everything seemed to slow down, her words piercing straight through me. "I don't hate you," those are the only words that managed to exit my mouth.
I completely zoned out of the conversation, as I heard her voice raise and she say something hateful to me. She walked away, her every step taking a piece of me with her.
I pulled my phone out.
'I did something I regret'
My phone buzzed, leaving me in further regret.
'What did you do mate?'
I shook my head, wanting greatly to bang my head against the wall with every letter I typed.
'I attacked the girl I'm in love with.'

(A/N) Welp, didn't see that one coming did you. If you did you were better than me, cause honestly, I never saw it coming, and I'm the one typing it. So in case you're wondering, I gave up cussing, not for the story of course but in real life, cause let's be honest, I did it too much. Also, I know this chapter is a little short than others but I felt like it was better to have good material rather that filler material. But BABES! CALUM MAN. I just like... I have so many plans for this story.

Oh heyyy, Remember my bio that I was going to update two some off months ago, yeah finally did that, which is greatttt. It actually kinda crappy but please forgive me for it!
