Chapter 5

        I turn around to see the dark haired guy from before. Calum, I think his name was. "Let the lady go." he said sternly. "Sorry pal I saw her first" the drunk guy replied. "I said let her go" Calum said getting angrier by the second. I didn't know Calum that well but I was so grateful that he was here to get this guy away from me.

"No" the guy replied with a smirk. "I will ask you kindly one last time to let her go or you're going to make me do something you'll regret." Calum said. "Oh I'm so scared. What's some kid like you going to do to me?" the guy said faking to be frightened. Calum looked super pissed now and I was scared as to what was going to happen next.

Before I knew it Calum had snatched me out of the guy's arms and pushed me behind him. The guy didn't even have time to react before Calum started throwing punches at his face tumbling on to the floor in the process while saying "I told you to let her go and when I tell you to let her go, you do" and with one last punch he knocked the guy out. I was shocked to see that no one even turned to look at what was happening. They were probably all too drunk to notice.

Calum got up and turned towards me and I have to admit after what I just saw, he kind of scared me. "Don't look at me like that, I'm not going to hurt you." he said then grabbed my arm and started dragging me through the crowds of people. "I'd be dead if I even lay a hand on you" I think I heard him mutter. I noticed that he was taking me towards the exit. "Umm excuse me. No. What are you doing? I can't leave. It's my friend's birthday party." I said while trying to make him let go of my arm. His grip on me tightened and I knew he wasn't going to be letting go any time soon.

"You can't stay here. Besides they'll all be too drunk to notice that you ever left." he said and continued to drag me through the crowd. "Then where are you taking me? You know it was really kind of you to stand up for me back there but I can find a way home myself." I said. "Nope not happening. Sorry sweetheart." he said finally taking me out the door.

I stopped walking refusing to take another step forward. "What are you doing? Let's go" he said looking kind of annoyed. "No" I said while crossing my arms, a smug look on my face.

Calum opened his mouth to say something but didn't get a chance to because someone from behind him interrupted. "It's ok Cal. I can take it from here." a figure approached Calum and patted him on the back. Calum nodded and walked away through some alley by the club. My mouth hung wide open, the smirk no longer on my face. How could Calum just leave me here? First he saves me from a stranger and now he's leaving me in the hands of another stranger. 

"Hey babe, remember me? I told you we'd see each other again." the figure said. Except this isn't a stranger, a voice in my head told me. I turned around in his direction slowly and standing right there in front of me was none other than the famous Ashton Irwin.

"Wha-what are you doing here" I said stuttering a bit. "I'm here to see you baby" he said with a smirk. "How did you know I would be here? Were you following me?" I built up the courage to ask. "Actually no. Calum wanted to come to this club because he heard that it was cool. I left him for one second and he finds you. He told me obviously and luckily I told him to go get you just in time because some other guy was molesting you." he replied.

"Why didn't you just come and get me yourself?" I asked. "Well my dear because of the simple fact that if you would've seen my face you would taken off running the other way and told your friends." he said that smirk returning to his face. He was right though. I would've tried to put as much space between us. Ashton then took one quick stride forward and grabbed me by the arm.

Why is everyone dragging me places by my arm? They're going to break it. "Wait. No. Let go. I don't want to go anywhere with you. I just want to go home." I said trying to get his grasp off me without breaking my arm. Damn he had a really strong hold. "Well that's too bad babe. You're coming with me whether you like it or not." he said smugly. He was walking really fast and my short legs couldn't keep up with the fast strides of his really long legs. Being the klutz I am, I tripped over my own feet and fell causing Ashton to abruptly stop. "Get up." he snapped. I think it was time to put my amazing acting skills to work so that I wouldn't have to go with him.
