"Ashton? What happened? Why are you bruised? Why are you dirty? What happened to you?" I was shooting him 20 questions to the boy standing infront me.

Ashton looked bad. Not those he fell down the stairs bad, but if got beat up for fun bad.

"I- I..." He ran his hand through his hair in frustration trying to come up the words to say.

"Look ash I think you need to get yourself clean up first." Michael speak up.

"Yeah ash. You can explain to us over lunch okay. Go get yourself clean." I pointed over the bathroom.

He stood up and went over there and lock the door.

"What did you think happen?" I asked Michael as we were chilling on the couch.

It has been over an hour since Ashton went into the bathroom. What is he even doing in there?

Michael didnt respond to me. He just sat there hugging me and looking outside the window. Weird.

"Michael, babe are you alright?" I look up at him slowly studying his face.

"Hm? Oh- yeah, I'm fine."

"Is everything alright?" I asked.

"Yeah. Don't worry about it." He said then he stood up. "I need to go see what Ashton is doing okay?"

"Yeah okay."

Then he walked towards to the bathroom Ashton's in.

I decided I needed to do something to get it off my chest so I went into the kitchen to make something.

Michael POV

"Hey Ashton?" You alright in there mate?" I knocked on the bathroom door waiting for a response.

Then suddenly, the door opens and I felt an arm pull me in.

"I'm sorry Michael...I really screwed it up. I made a mistake and i am really really sorry-" Ashton walking back and forth in the bathroom and looking frustrated. He cleaned up but the bruise on his eye won't be going away any time soon.

"Woah woah calm down Ash, what happened?" I'm trying to calm him down.

"I- I went over to Luke's house and found that Lucy was there.. " he paused.

"Okay. And then?"

"Then we hung out without Luke then- I don't know what got to me, but I kissed her."

I froze. I can't believe he would do that. Why would he do that? Especially to Luke. One of his best friend. I don't understand.

"Why would you do that?!" I yelled. "To Luke! You of all people should know what is he going through especially when Christina chose me over him! Man, why would you do that?"

"I don't know what has got into me! I knew that I had a thing for her but I didn't know I was going to kiss her, well not yet."

"Wait wait. What do you mean "not yet" ?" I hold up my hand.

"I think I like her. Like, really really like her." He finally smiled at the thought of that.

"You can't, Ashton! Find someone else to like! We can't keep doing this to Luke man."

"Well it's not my fault that Luke keeps liking girls that we like!"

"No Ashton this is wrong. He liked her first. He saw her first. Go like someone else."

Then we both just stood there, in the bathroom quietly before I broke the silence again.

"So what's up with the badly bruised eye and messed up clothing?"

"Oh, Luke walked in on us kissing and he punched me in the face. He then threw me out to the street hence the ripped shirt. I slide on the ground. It was pretty bad."

"Man, you messed up big time." I said shaking my head.

"But why come here ?"

"I wanted to talk to Christina about this but I didn't know you would be here so early."

He walked closer to me and paused. "I know I messed up big time but I also know that I'm going after Lucy."

My eyes shot up to his face. "ASHTON! How could you be so naive? You can't do that! You can't chase after Lucy. Lucy should be the last thing to worry about at the moment! You need to patch things up with Luke. Right now!"

"Okay okay fine. Can we just get out from this bathroom now. I don't like being in the same room as you." He said as he opens the door.

I shot him a glare as we make our way to the kitchen.

Lucy POV

I am sitting here on the couch, in Luke's house as I'm crying infront of the guy that is currently crying as well.

I don't like seeing him cry but I know it's my fault. All this is my fault. I never thought Ashton would do something like this, but I am also ashamed of myself for liking it.

But no.

I like Luke. Luke cares for me. He loves me like no one else does and k ruined it.

"How cou- could you..?" Luke sobbing and wiping away his tears infront me.

"I'm sorry...."

"I thought we had something... You know what happened to Christina and now when im about to feel something for you, you do something like this?"

"It wasn't my intentions-"

"It wasn't your intention?!" And the yelling match starts again.

"I thought you like me? I thought you care about me?!"

"But I do care about you!"

"Oh so kissing my bestfriend means you care about me? Nice going Lucy."

And then it's where I really started crying. It's like whatever I do or say, makes things worse. I can't fix this and I'm slowly getting the thought again.

My face suddenly showed no emotion. Completely gone.

"You suddenly realize how bad this is? How hurt you made me?"

I didn't respond.

"Lucy?" Luke kept shouting at me but my face is blank. My mind is going million miles per hour because the thought suddenly came back.

"You know what Luke? Go fuck yourself. I'm out of here." I finally speak up and got up to the front door.

I needed to say something so when this happens, he will feel less hurt by it.

"And what we are, we're over." Those were my last words before I shut the door behind me. Leaving Luke standing in the middle of the living room completely confused.
