Micheal and I had made it to the main area where the bonfire pit, and all of our friends were. Mikey left me to go and sit by Calum and I was left with a choice, who do I sit by?

Typically a who do I sit by wouldn't be that big of a deal normally but both Luke and Ashton were sitting already. I looked around for a different face to sit with and soon came across Bella's.

I quickly made my way over to Bella and sat down.

"Hey" we both said simultaneously and hugged each other.

I could feel a couple pairs of eyes on me and I looked up to find Luke's eyes on me as well as Ashton. You could practically feel then tension in the air. Luke got up and sat in the empty seat next to me.

'Fuck' was all I could think. I looked over at Ashton who was now looking directly into the fire. His expression was changed from antsy to sad just like that.

I knew why now and I felt bad that I hadn't seen it before. And the more I thought about it the more I saw it. The more everything became clearer.

"Hey Skye what's wrong?" I heard a deep voice ask me, as he put an arm around me. And by now I hadn't realized I was crying, and that everybody was staring at me.

ASHTON'S POV

Calum and I were sitting at the bonfire waiting for anyone else to get there and to no surprise who was the first to show up? Luke. I hated that kid more than anything and right now I hated him even more than that. I could tell he was in comfortable and that made me happy. Soon Bella arrived with her friend Rachel, who wasn't necessarily apart of our group but she was still our friend. We had been sitting for a while and Mikey and Skyler finally showed up.

Mikey sat down and left Skyler to find a seat. She looked uncomfortable and it was pretty obvious. She kept looking back from me to Luke I had a feeling that Mikey told her what happened. She finally gave up and sat next to Bella. They talked and smiled and I loved seeing that look on her face. Her smile could light up a room and she always knew what to say and just her being... Her. She made me happy, something that I wasn't when I wasn't at camp.

Just then I saw somebody get up and to no surprise it was Luke. That asshole. He knows how much I like her and yet he still try's to get her. He probably doesn't even like her anymore! He is probably just doing all of this to piss me off.

Skyler looked at me and I turned my face quickly to hide the expression of anger.

After a few minutes I heard something that caught my attention.

"Hey Skye what's wrong?" It was the asshole. I turned my head to see what had happened, and skyler was in tears. She just kept staring at me. I felt sick! I hated seeing people cry especially when it's someone I like... Or love. I don't know how I feel about her but I know she deserves better than Luke. I could feel tears threatening to spill out but I held them back. I just looked at her helpless face and could tell she was hurting.

SKYLER'S POV

I cried trying to think of an explanation as to why I was crying. Nothing came to me Ashton was staring at me and I was staring at him and I was crying because of him... I think. I couldn't take it anymore I had to break the teary eye contact, so I did the one thing I knew would hurt him but I had to do it.

I buried my head into Luke's chest and hugged him tightly. Not knowing what to think or feel.i sat there crying for a good five minutes before I stopped. I wasn't even sure as to why I was crying about something that petty but I had.

I looked up from Luke and to no surprise Ashton was gone, I got up and was followed by Luke.

"Luke I need some time by myself right now." I spoke somewhat harshly.
