The Only Reason || 5 Seconds of Summer

Chapter Fifty-Seven;

Abbey’s P.O.V

We were still sitting on the couch pulled into each other’s embrace. As much as I was enjoying the sound of our breathing, I felt like we really needed to talk about what had happened.

“Michael, I think we need to talk about what happened,”

“I don’t know if I want to go into that,”

“I really want to talk about what was going on, before, during and after the whole thing,”

The room fell to silence before I decided to talk again

“It was honestly shocking, when Ashton told me. I never thought words could shred your insides apart so quickly,”

“I’m so sorry,”

“Michael, the idea is not to apologise, but just talk. You’ve already said sorry,”

“Okay, I will talk about it. If Ashton hadn’t of said that you were all over him that evening, I would have told you. I thought it was true, and I feel stupid for thinking that, but at the same time I thought it was easier because I wouldn’t have to tell you about what I had done,”

“Although what you did was a little worse,”

“Right, but there isn’t an excuse for what I did, it just happened,”

“But you went there to stop her from making up shit about the band, right?”

“Yes, but I shouldn’t have slept with her,”

“Also true, but what was it like going straight to tour and pretending like it was okay?”

“It wasn’t as easy as I made it out to be,”

“I just hid away,”

“I know, but Ashton told me that you wanted to make sure him and I become friends again, so I let him help me out,”

“He helped me out a lot too,”

“Ash is a good guy,”

“I completely agree,”

“Do you want to keep talking about it, or is that enough?” He asked

“It’s enough,”

I grabbed Michaels hand and we headed to the bedroom, we got under the covers and set up a horror movie that Michael chose.

Ariella’s P.O.V

“Hey,” I said into my phone as I picked it up

“Hey, how are you?” Calum responded

“I’m worried, how are you?”

“I’m good, but why are you worried?”

“Please don’t bring it up with Luke,”

“I won’t,”

“Okay, so I unlocked his phone to send myself a few photos we took and it opened up on his messaging and his top thread was a person named Lucy, I don’t know who she is and she had a few hearts next to her name or something. I feel like I am overreacting but I don’t know. Luke has also been acting very weird lately so I’m worried,”

“I don’t really know what to say, I haven’t heard of anyone named Lucy before,” Calum said, although I could tell he was lying

“Really? That’s a shame,”

“Sorry Ella, I er, better go! I will call you back later okay?”

“Okay,”

He hung up in a rush; he knew exactly who Lucy was.

I can’t bring it up with Luke, and my best friend won’t even tell me.
