Wait || Ashton fanfic ||

The rescue

I walked home after the long and weird day at the library. Ashton leaving. Calum leaving. Ashton always left so that wasn't so surprising, but Calum leaving... I didn't get it. So when I got home I jumped on my bed and called the one I knew I could talk to, Lydia. Or normally I could talk to her, but after she got a boyfriend things has been more complicated and all she could do when she was not around him, was talk about him. But I dialled her number hoping for the best.

Hoping wasn't enough.

The phone called three times before she answered.

"Its Lydia" She said and I could feel her smiling through the phone.

"Hey its me"

"Hi May- wait, hold on" Even though she put the phone away I could still hear her.

"Luke! Stop it! I am on the phone with May... Okay I am back"

"Say hi to Luke from me" She put the phone away for a sec telling Luke I said hi.

"Okay let's get down to business Luke keep hanging on me" She sighed."Oh it must be so hard having a boyfriend who throws himself at you" I sighed. She fake gasped, but couldn't hold the sassy attitude and ended up laughing.

"Anyways, I need help, the weirdest thing happened at the library today" I scratched my neck and continued, "First Ashton dropped by-"

"Uhh!" She said with a flirty voice. I rolled my eyes at her and smashed the phone into the pillow then yelled "Focus!"

"Sorry, sorry continue"

"As I said, Ashton dropped by and-"

"Luke get of me, asshole!" She laughed into the phone. I was so jealous of her, but what can I say, she was a dream.

I waited a few minutes when a familiar male voice said "Lydia can't talk right now, she call back later" I heard a huge bang and Lydia screaming "Luke, don't!" And then the called ended.

God I hate couples, they were so adorable and kept reminding me that I was lonely and probably would be for a long time. Why would a boy like me?

I felt pretty emotional so I decided to go for a walk. I put on my favourite jacket with the high neck and my black boots. I grabbed my headphones, plugged them in my phone and jumped out the door.

I lived near a forest so I decided to go there. The sweet tones of Maroon 5 and Coldplay filled my ears. I was a sucker for bands and besides Maroon 5 and Coldplay, my faves was One Republic, Greenday and Blink 182. God I loved it.

"And she will be loved and she will be loved"

... Yeah, right...

After an hour of walking my mouth started curving in the corners and a small smile appeared on my face, I took it as a sign and started walking back to my house.

I turned around the corner to my street only to see the last thing I wanted to see, curls. They were laughing beside a blond haired girl, Mackenzie I guess. The couple (or whatever that was) surprised me and I let out a small shriek and jumped behind a hedge.

Urgh... Ashton with a girl... Great. Well I guess that is just how it is; I get interested in a guy and of course he already sees a girl (who, of course, is a lot prettier than me). Everything was obvious. I was an ugly sucker and he was a hot boy in a band. The odds weren't really in my favour. I hated it. It had always been and will always be that way. I am not good enough.

I got a sour taste in my mouth as the couple finally got out of sight. All I wanted to do now was... was... You know what? I wanted to get totally wasted. I wanted to be the party animal everyone likes and wants to be with. I wanted to be like the "cool" kids. So I did.
