I trail Ashton upstairs because I don't want this, whatever it may be, to end up like one of those stupid cliches you hear in stories. I refuse to let myself wonder and allow my mind to get the best of me. So I push open the door with more than just a force, but a purpose.
"What the hell Ashton?"
"Hmm I think I should be asking you the same thing considering you just barged into my room without warning." his gaze doesn't meet my eyes.
"Because I have been doing so for years and it never seemed to bother you before. your turn." He paces back and forth like he's about to blow and finally changes direction towards me. At first I am afraid he is going to walk by me like he is indifferent about any recent events, but I am surprised when I hear the door click shut and extremely long hands wrap around my waist. Ashton whips me around to face him and forcefully starts to kiss me. Before I have time to process anything I am presses against the door and denied access to move again. The desire to tug his hair is stronger than ever.
I awkwardly manage to pull away and hit my head with a bang against the wood." Look I think there are something things we need to clear up Ash." I want to rub the throbbing in my head away but my arms may as well have duct tape clasped around them.
His gaze finally reaches mine and I believe I finally can get him to say something .That is until I feel myself being gently pushed away from the door so he can make a quick get away again.

After taking a Tylenol for my head that wasn't only sore from the physical bashing, but mental I hear the faint buzz of my phone ringing. My dad's name flashes across the brightened screen and I hastily slide my finger across the answer button.
"Hey dad!" All this ...strenuous activity has made me actually anticipate my family's arrival back home. maybe the tension of living in close quarters for so long has finally gotten to Ashton and a little time apart will be all We need.
"Hey Maggie..." oh god his voice doesn't have the usual chipper ring to it when he does actually call.
"So are you guys sad to be leaving London ?"
"Well that's what I decided to call you about honey . I know we had planned to be home well before Christmas , but you smart parents forgot to factor in the elements of winter in the northern hemisphere. there has been a severe snow storm up here. All roads are closed due to ice so don't even get me started on a plane runway ."
"So your basically saying you won't be home for Christmas ." I can hear my voice quiver at the end of the sentence.
"Caliche huh? But I have already made arrangements , you'll be staying with the Irwin's until further notice." My father says it like it is supposed to make me feel better .
"What no I can't !" I cover my mouth quickly as if to bring the words back into my mouth , but it is to late.
" Is something wrong Maggie? Is everything all right."
I hear my obnoxious mothers voice appear in the line," I told you we shouldn't have let her stay with that boy. Magdalena has he tried to hurt you? Rape is a federal crime you know !" I can't help but laugh," This is why you need a friends that's a girl. they know how to behave !"
"Yes mom I understand , and it's fine dad thank you for warning me. I'll make sure to send my love up to England , maybe it'll get you home soon bye." I throw my phone and flop onto my bed. My life has turned into a bad romantic comedy without the romance, just forcible kissing.
