I don't know how long we sit in the bathroom floor, but sooner or later we hear a knock on the door. I stand up and open the bathroom door to see Calum standing there.

"Can I talk to you really  fast?" He asks, glancing at the floor where Ashton sits, now on  his phone.

"Uh Huh." I say, walking out and following Calum.  We sit in the empty living room.

"What's going on, Elaina?" Calum asks, looking excited.

"Well..." I start.

"Are you two like, together?"

"I, uh, think so."

Calum  just holds a finger up, as if  to say, "Gimme a  second", then he walks down the hall to  the bathroom.

Let's be  glad it wasn't Michael's personal bathroom, yuck.

"ASHTON IRWIN I AM SO PROUD OF YOU." I say, excitedly.

"What?" Ashton laughs.

"YOU DID IT, YOU ACTUALLY DID IT."

"Did wha- oh, yeah."

I sit down next to him, pinching his cheek. "My little boy's growing up."

"I'm older tha-" Ashton starts.

"DO NOT RUIN MY JOY."

Ashton laughs.

"I'm serious. I knew this was gonna happen since day one." I state.

"No, you didn't." Ashton scoffs.

"Okay, maybe I didn't, but I knew before either of you did."

I open my phone (which was silenced), to see seven messages.

Dad- WHERE ARE YOU!

Dad- If you're at one of those boys houses, I'll know.

Dad- I'm about to file a missing persons report, then you'll have to come back.

Dad- Please, honny, I'm sorry for snapping.

Dad- I won't hurt anyone, if you'll just come home.

Dad- Don't ever talk to those guys ever again. tho.

Dad- Okay, okay, I.take it back, JUST COME HOME PLEASE.

I sigh, tossing my phone onto the chair across from the couch, where it lands safely.

"What's going on?" Luke asks.

"My dad's an idiot." I sigh. My throught tightens, and I know that I'm about to cry.

"I'm sorry." Luke says.

"I could use a hug, you know." I say, my voice pinched as I try not to cry.

"Well, I'm here, and I like to hug people, so...?" Luke says, coming and hugging me.

I release my tears, and a strangled sob comes out of my mouth.

"Don't cry, it'll be alright."

"I can't- I- He-" I try to say multiple things, but my cries shut out 90% of my words.

Luke just sits there, holding me, as I let myself cry.
