I get ready pretty quick the boys said it wasn't to dressy so I just put on my navy blue lace dress which had long sleeves, I then applied light makeup and curled my hair slightly, I herd the boys open the door followed by wolf whistles "excuse you" I say smirking as I slip on my ballet flats "you look.. Wow" Calum says making my blush I notice Luke punch Calum in the arm and Ashton chuckles "let's go party" I say as I walk downstairs "now Mar if you want stick by us" Luke says "are you getting over protective already Hemmings" I say "maybe just a little" he says "thank you" I say and he smiles.
------------------------------------------------------
The party has been going for about 3 hours, the musics pumping and everyone is jumping with the music, I'm glad Luke and the boys have responsible friends and no ones drinking tonight. I can feel a headache coming on "I'm just going to get some air" I say to Luke he nods and smiles as I walk out through the backyard, I manage to push through the group of people and find the gate, I push it open and close it behind me, as I make my way up the path to the beach the music gets quieter and quieter, until finally all I can hear is the crashing of the waves, I take a seat on the sand and just stare out into the ocean.
Flashback - 1 hour before Marley's dad died
------------------------------------------------------
"MARLEY GET USE TO IT SHE DIED" my dad yelled in yet another drunken rage "HOW CAN YOU TALK ABOUT HER LIKE THAT" I yell back tears running down my face "SHES GONE MARLEY, SHES NOT COMING BACK" he yelled again "WHY DO YOU KEEP GETTING DRUNK ARE YOU TRYING TO COVER THE PAIN" I yell "NO MARLEY THIS IS ME THIS IS WHO I AM" he yells back "THIS IS NOT THE DAD I KNOW" I say, he slams down his glass causing it to shatter "You know what go out for a bit till you sober up" I say "fine I will" he spits back, as he walks out of the house.
Flashback over
-------------------
"Party scene not fo....." Calum says sitting down next to me but stops when he sees the tears now flowing from my eyes "Marley what's wrong" he continues I can hear the worry in his voice "it was my fault Calum" I cry my breathing getting heavier by the second "what was your fault" Calum says rubbing my back "it was my fault my dad died" I sob harder "what do you mean" he says "the night my dad got into the car accident he got drunk and was saying stuff about mum like get over it she's gone, so I snapped and told him to leave till he sobered up, then he got into his car and that was the last time I saw him" I cry into Calum's shirt as he pulls me into his chest "Marley you have to know this wasn't your fault" he says rubbing my hair "but cal if I hadn't of told him to leave if I had of just left it, he would still be here" I cry "and to know that the last conversation I had with my dad was us yelling at each other that kills me" I sob again "shhh it's okay" he says "no but it's not how am I suppose to go on with my life with no parents, no one to show me the rules of life no father to walk me down the isle" I cry "why did this happen to me" I continue "listen I don't know why bad things happen to good people, but we all have to believe something good is going to come out of this" he says "and until then" I whisper "you take it one day at a time, if your feeling rough you have me Luke Michael Ashton and liz right here whenever you need us, I don't care if it's 2 am in the morning call me and I'll be there and so will the other boys and liz, were your family now" he finishes "thank you" I whisper "I did nothing" he says "this is the first time I've broken down about it all you know" I say "I just couldn't cry and I suppose it's built up inside me all these past few days and thank you for being there" I say "I'm always here" he says smiling, I can't believe how much I trust Calum, well all the boys for that matter, in such little time I only met them this morning now I'm having an emotional breakdown to one of them.
Just take it one day at a time I think as I continue to watch the waves crash in silence with Calum.
------------------------------------------------------
After sitting on the beach with Calum for an hour I decided to go back to the house and go to bed I just wanted to sleep I felt emotionally drained.
