I woke up the next morning and went down stairs to make some breakfast. I was reaching up for a cereal box when there was a knock on the door. I went to open it and Calum barged inside.

"Calum what are you-" I tried to say but He interrupted me.

"Melanie do you know what you've gotten yourself into?!" Calum shouted.

"What do you mean?" I questioned.

"That Ashton guy you've been seeing, he's a criminal Mel, he's dangerous!" Calum continued.

"I can expl-" I tried again unfortunately getting cut off once again.

"You're playing with fire Melanie!" Calum yelled with furry and worry in his eyes. He took a step back to catch his breath.

"Cal, you don't understand" I whispered.

"What do I not understand Mel?" Calum asked.

"He would never hurt me, he loves me" I whimpered. Calum rubbed his temples I'm obvious frustration.

"I can't believe this" Calum sighed.

"What?" I asked.

"I can't believe you would be so stupid Mel, I can't do this anymore. Bye Melanie" Calum breathed turning back to his car. I was frozen in my tracks and couldn't move. I watched him leave and the only person I wanted to see now was Ashton.

-

"Mel what are you doing here?" Ashton asked with a smile.

"I just needed to get away that's all" I said trying to fake a smile. Ashton pulled me into a strong hug and kissed my forehead.

"Can you take me somewhere?" I asked desperately.

"Where?" Ashton replied.

"Anywhere" I sighed. We drove for a while until we reached a big field with a gigantic white water tower right in the middle.

"Sometimes I come here to think" Ashton explained.

"All the way up there?" I asked pointing to the huge tower.

"Don't worry Mel, I'll hold your hand I promise" Ashton reassured me, flashing a smile. We climbed up the ladder and finally got to the top. it was a perfect night and you could see everything up here.

"Wow" I gasped.

"Isn't it insane?" Ashton remarked. I rested my head on Ashton's shoulder as we listened to 'Somewhere in Neverland' by All Time Low, one of my favorite songs.

"How'd you know I loved this song?" I giggled.

"Lucky guess" Ashton replied.
