Let's Start Over [Punk 5SOS]

'7

I walked down the long driveway as fast as I could. I took off my heels and just began to run. With no reason at all. I didn't run, ever. So something was wrong with my head when I arrived at the housing buildings. I rushed to my room and closed the door. I quickly changed into one of my many blink 182 shirts and laid in bed.

And that's what I did. For an entire week. No one came to visit. No Mikey, no Ashton. None of the girls. I didn't know what to do. I could barely function. It was like I had fallen off the face of the earth and my friends didn't give to shits about me.

I began to pack up my things. I had already talked with my teachers, over email of course, about how I would be back in a few weeks. They all understood and emailed me the work I needed to do since I couldn't actually prepare food. I looked into one of my last drawers. I dreaded this. I made sure I had everything and walked down the halls with his shirt in my hand.

I had made it to his door when I heard him and the boys in the room. They were doing some type of small acoustic thing. I listened to the words that left the boys mouth.

Ohhh Oh Oh

Life’s a tangled web of cellphone calls and hashtag ‘I don’t knows’

And you, you’re so caught up in all the blinking lights and dial tones

I admit I’m a bit of a victim in the worldwide system too

But I find my sweet escape when I’m alone with you

Tune out the static sound of the city that never sleeps

Here in the moment on the dark side of the screen

I like the summer rain

I like the sounds you make

We put the world away

We get so disconnected

You are my getaway

You are my favourite place

We put the world away

Yeah we’re so disconnected

Ohhh Oh Oh, Ohhh Oh Oh

Hands around my waist, you’re counting up the hills across the sheets

And I’m a falling star, a glimmer lighting up these cotton streets

I admit I’m a bit of a fool for playing by their rules

But I find my sweet escape when I’m alone with you

Tune out the static sound of the city that never sleeps

Here in the moment on the dark side of the screen

I like the summer rain

I like the sounds you make

We put the world away

We get so disconnected

You are my getaway

You are my favourite place

We put the world away

Yeah we’re so disconnected

Turn off the radio, those late night TV shows

Hang up the telephone and just be here with me

Turn off the radio, those late night TV shows

Hang up the telephone and just be here with me

I like the summer rain

I like the sounds you make

We put the world away

We get so disconnected

You are my getaway

You are my favourite place

We put the world away

Yeah we’re so disconnected

I like the summer rain

I like the sounds you make

We put the world away

We get so disconnected

You are my getaway

You are my favourite place

We put the world away

Yeah we’re so disconnected

Ohhh Oh Oh, Ohhh Oh Oh

I knocked on the door softly, already in tears from that damn song. I look up at Ashton who has a frown playing on his lips. I hand him the shirt and notice that the other girls are in the room with the boys. I shake my head.

"And I considered you all my friends? Fuck off." I grabbed my bag and began to walk towards the door. I heard footsteps behind me until the curly headed boy I fell for was in front of me.

"Where are you going?" He asked me.

"Home, Ashton. I'll see you after break." I walked past him and got a taxi. I turned back and saw Ashton in the same spot, but he had turned to look at me. I waved and got into the yellow car. I looked down onto my lap. I was going back to Illinois, and I wouldn't even miss this place.

I was waiting for my plane when I heard someone running. Probably because they were about to miss their flight. I continued to look at my phone. Someone had cleared their throat so I looked up.

"A-Ashton. What are you doing here?" I said softly.

He handed me his shirt that I had brought back to him earlier. He kissed my cheek and smiled softly. "You forgot this. I'll see you soon okay?"

I nodded softly. This didn't change much but I felt so much better knowing that I was at least on better terms with Ashton.

My flight was only a few hours long. When I got off the plane I saw my parents and rushed over to them. I hugged them both tightly. "I missed you so much." I said to them and began to break down.

My mom rubbed my back. "Come on, lets get your bags and go home." she smiled.
