I wake up to see the sun shining bright through the window. I look at the clock and see that it's already one. Thank god it's a Saturday. I got myself out of bed and threw on t shirt and some shorts before heading downstairs. I waddled into the kitchen and got me a bowl of cereal not caring of the time of day. The rest of the weekend was a drag and went by slowly

"Hey, Estefania!" Ashton says.
"Hey, Ashton" I reply.
"You know your my only friend?" he says more than questions
"Well, I guess your my only friend too," I laugh.
"Do you wanna go to the park after school?" he asks.
"Uhm. Just as friends, okay?" I confirm.
"Uhm. Yeah, okay" he says. The bell rings and class begins

After school I went home and got changed into more comfy clothes. I pulled a hoodie over my head and sweat pants over my legs. When I arrive at the park I see Ashton sitting with Calum, Luke, and Michael. Since when does Ashton have all these tattoos and piercings?
"When did you get those, Ashton?" I ask, even though the question I should be asking is, why are these dick heads here? Ashton looks at me, confused for a minute,
"Oh these!" he exclaims. "I've always had these, you just never noticed because I always wore a sweater." Come to think of it, Ashton does have a lot of sweaters.
"What are you doing with them?" my mind allows the words before I even realize that I'm saying them.
"They've been my friends since like, kinder" he explains as though it's obvious. I'm so confused. My mind is trying to process everything and then it hits me,
"Oh my gosh..." I whisper. "You.." I say pointing at Ashton, "You're Ashton Irwin. You used to get bullied with Luke, Calum, and Michael! Then you guys got tired of being bullied and you guys turned all like.. punk. And now you guys are the bullies.."
