"Maybe you should stop calling me El." I snapped
"I like it." Michael says. He looks at his watch. "Oh I have a band practice, I think I gotta go." He ran away, leaving me on the sidewalk.
"What the fuck, Michael!" I yelled. After ten seconds, he ran back to me.
"I forgot you, sorry." He laughs. "Just come and see our band."
"Well.." I shrugged. "Isn't Ashton there?"
"Yeah" Michael says. We walked to his band's gig house.
We opened the door and saw the three of them, waiting for Michael. Ashton saw me and greeted me with a hug.
"Ashton!" I let go of him. "It's like we haven't seen each other for so long, jeez"
"But, Elly..." He pouts. He likes to call me elly while Michael, el. I rolled my eyes.
"Okay Okay, enough with the both of you" Calum snaps. He looks at me and raises an eyebrow. "You're my girlfriend's friend, right?"
"Yes, why?" I said.
"Oh, she talks about what happened to you last night and -"
"Calum!" I heard Michael hissed. "And yeah you went home."
"Guys," Luke says. "Can we start already?" I sat down at the chair. I watched them sing Try Hard. I watched how Michael played his guitar and not paying attention to Ashton.... I don't know.
After an hour, they had a break. Ashton wrapped his arms around me.
"Hey," He says. "Tonight, the four of us, including you, we'll go to the bar."
"I'm only sixteen." I protested.
"You have a fake ID" He replies. "Get dressed, okay?"
I nodded.
They threw rocks at my window this night. My grandma's asleep already, so I walked quietly downstairs and to the outside of the house.
"Elly...." Ashton stared at my clothes, which is just a denim jacket, a Sleeping With Sirens shirt, and a pair of converse. I didn't tell Tris about this, not even a single clue. "You're beautiful"
"Oh stop it" I blushed. "No I'm not"
"Well she's perfect, isn't she?" Michael and Calum whispered at each other.
"Guys, seriously stop." I said. We all went to the bar, including Calum's girlfriend.
