Princess in Disguise [ Michael Clifford ]

Eleven

+ Michael +

Today is friday, Thank God. I haven't talked to Ella or Calum after what happened. I am such a dick. How can I do that to my own best friend? To Calum.

I was walking down the hallway when I saw Ella, she looks drained. I tried to approach her, but I failed. I stopped from walking and stare at her.

How can I hurt her? I knew Ella would never do that. I saw Nate talking to her and I want to ran up to him and punch him. I moved closer and eavesdrop.

"So..." Said Nate, making Ella look at him.

"Hey." She muttered.

"Are you alright?" He asked, making her nod.

"Did you cried last night?" He asked again.

"No." She said, clearly lying. I ran my finger through my hair, feeling guilty. I knew that I did those to her. I broke her.

I walked away and went to my next class, which is Chemistry.

Calum changed his schedule so he's no longer with us in Literature. Ella barely talk to anyone anymore. Last week will probably be the worst week ever.

After classes, It's Lunch. I sat with Luke, Ashton and Zoe. Zoe is Luke's girl friend.

"I love you." Said Zoe, while kissing Luke's face.

"I love you too, Honeypie." Luke replied, making me cringe.

"You guys are always texting each other, aren't you getting tired of each other?" I cringed my nose at the sight of them.

"It's called Love. Why don't you try it sometimes?" Said Zoe, rolling her eyes at me.

I fucking tried once, It ruined my life.

I saw Calum walking towards Ella, but stopped. I felt my heart stopped also. He was about to tap Ella but quickly walked away. I saw Ashton staring at me.

"What?" I asked, looking at their reactions.

"Are you seriously going to throw our friendship away because of Ella?" He asked, I didn't replied.

"This is dumb. We knew each other since we're kids." He said, groaning.

"Do you like Ella?" Asked Zoe, I felt my breathing stop.

"N-no. Of course not. Are you being delirious?" I muttered, looking away.

"Michael, If you're being paranoid about Ella breaking you like what Ashley did to you - " Said Luke, but I cut him off.

"I still love Ashley." I yelled, making everyone look at us.

Everyone is quiet and I heard someone ran, I looked around and Ella was gone. The noise returned and I wanted to slap myself.

"Let's imagine, What if Calum knew that Ella likes you and he made a plan to keep it as a secret?" Said Luke, smirking.

"Ella can't love me." I said, letting out a shaky laugh.

"You're not sure about that, Michael." Said Ashton before eating his mashed potato.

I walked away and think. Ella can't love me, oh for fuck's sake. I saw Michelle and he walked up to me.

"Hey." She said, making me nod at her.

"We're having a party tonight, Want to come?" She asked, making me nod again. A little party could help. Michelle walked away and the lunch bell rang.

I'm finally home. Thank goodness. Ella is home too. Nate walked her home. It's almost six so I dressed up.

I saw Ella dressed up too. Fuck no. I heard a car outside and I left with Luke, Ashton and Zoe.

"I heard Ella is going too." Said Zoe. I groaned at her.

"Last time she went to a party, she got pranked." Said Luke.

"Who invited her by the way?" Asked Ashton, looking annoyed.

"Michelle probably." I said. We stopped at a house and I saw Calum. He was drinking and sitting alone.

I drank few shots, Play suck and blow, Made out with some other girls and other things.

I saw Ella entered and Michelle led her in the bar. I saw Michelle gave Ella a cup and she drank it. I stood there and watched. After more amount of that drink, I decided to walk up to her.

"You should stop that." I said, taking the cup in her hands.

"Stop what?"She slurred. Holy shit, I'm so dead. Michelle called Ella and she stood at the top of a table, gaining audience.

"Everybody! Ella have something important to say." Yelled Michelle with a smirk.

"I am a Princess." Said Ella, making everyone laugh. I pushed through the crowd and tug her arm.

"Get down." I said, she pulled away and laughed at me. What a fucking psychopath.

"What a coincidence!" She slurred. Yep, I'm dead. My father will kill me.

"Michael Clifford is here." She said, pointing at me. The audience focused on us. I hate attention.

"Michael and Calum had a fight because of Ella. No, not Princess Ariella." She slurred. I felt chills and hoping she won't spill more. I tried to get her down but she keeps pushing me.

"Calum!" She yelled and pointed Calum, who's watching.

"Calum and I are not dating.." She slurred again. Please stop. I tried to get her down again.

"I love someone else." She said, almost unable to be understood, and laughed. She stopped and stared at me.

"I love you, Michael." She said, I felt everything stopped before Calum pushed me away then carried her down and left.
