5SOS Adopted Me?

Fifty-Five: Yelling

MADISON'S POV

I checked the time, telling Brianna I had to leave. But I did give her the gift I got her, I wanted to wait until I had to leave. Everyone there was really nice, and josh was there. I told him about what happened and he agreed to help me if I ever needed someone to lie.

"Oh my gosh Mads! You didn't!" she says examining the gifts I got her.

It took a while to pick, but I showered her in gifts. I got her three tickets to All Time Low, who are coming by in two weeks. As well as some band merch(including an 'I love Calum hood' sweatshirt), as well as a necklace with her name on it. I used money I had saved up instead of having the boys pay for it.

"Do you like it?" I question, grinning.

"Like it? I love it! Thank you so much Mads, you didn't have to get me all of this. But you're definitely going to that concert with me. I know someone who would've loved to go with us as well... Jane. But I dot think she would anymore." she sighs and my face falls. Maybe I could work something out...

"I'll talk to her, see how she feels. Then maybe she'll go as well. But I have to go, bye Bri! See you at school soon!" I hug her quickly, grabbing my stuff and changing before going home. The boys are definitely going to kill me, there's no escaping.

But maybe, I have a plan. I stayed out for about two and a half hours, not too long I guess. I changed, so that Ashton will think I actually didn't wear that out. It will make him feel better, but as I glance around nervously, I become anxious.

I spot the boys searching for me, not at home at least. I sneak by them, and run towards to house, going in the back door.

Locked. The back door is locked. There's only one way in. I climb the tree that I used to leave from. I have a fear of heights, so I don't understand how I even did this without panicking. But guess it's just the rush.

I check my phone as I put my stuff away.

7 missed calls from Calum

13 missed calls from Michael

23 missed calls from Ashton

47 missed calls from Luke

Oh my gosh I must have really worried them, I bite my lip in guilt as I read the texts they sent through group chat. I sigh, pulling a beanie over my head and going into the game room downstairs. Ashton won't disapprove of this outfit, it's a pair of black skinny jeans, and one of Calum's hoodies.

The one thing I always do is steak these boys hoodies, they all smell really good. My favorite is Calum's because his always smell like cinnamon. I decide I should probably call Calum, so that they can stop worrying. I decide to FaceTime him, as I walk into the kitchen.

"Madison? Oh my god you're okay. Where we're yo- we'll talk when we get home. Be there soon bye." and he hangs up. I sit on the stairs, pulling my legs and arms into his hoodie, waiting for the door to swing open.

I do feel bad about worrying them so much, but it honestly wasn't fair. I would've changed if Ashton hadn't been so rude about it, I just wanted to know what was wrong with my outfit. But I don't want to be treated as if I'm a kid; I know I'm still young but I am in high school

The door swings open to reveal the four boys, and three of them rush to hug me. Ashton stands there angrily. I don't hug the boys back, I can't. They squished my arms inside the hooding around my own body.

"We were so worri- is that my hoodie?" Calum questions, chuckling a bit as I shrug.

The thing that scares me the most is how angry Ashton looks. Luke doesn't even mind too much it seems, but Ashton? His nostrils are flaring, fists clenched to his sides as his chest moves up and down rapidly. Calum has a neck vein when he's angry, but Ashton's forehead has its own arm. I gulp, trying to fit into the sweatshirt completely.

"Where the hell were you?" Ashton sneers loudly.

"I was-" I start but I'm interrupted.

"I don't want to hear it!" he starts. "You went to Brianna's didn't you? After I told you not to fucking go to Brianna's house you deliberately disobeyed me and ran off to her house not even telling us you were fucking leaving!" he yells, I gulp. It's true, but I can't let him know that.

"Ashton, lower your voice and stop swearing you-" Luke doesn't even get to finish his sentence.

"You Luke, out of all people are trying to get me to calm down? You've dealt with this before, you should fucking know! You're the one who's always yelling at her, you kissed her for fucks sake! You've injured her too, so why don't you shut the hell up!" Ashton yells but you can see the regret in his eyes as Luke scoffs, shoving through and going upstairs.

I don't know what's gotten into him, but this isn't Ashton. This isn't like him, and he's scaring me. I don't cry often, but as he continues to scream and yell profanities at me, tears start to fall. I especially hate crying in front of people, so this is weird.

"I-I went to clear my head, I visited josh." I say, my voice barely audible.

"What was that? Did you say you went to see another fucking guy? Did you fuck him and James Madison?" I gape at that. I've had enough. I put my arms through the holes in the sweatshirt and stand up.

"I'm 14 and he's fucking gay you asshole! I- I really do hate you! I hate you so much! Why did you have to pick me?" I scream, throwing my phone at him as I run away. "Call Josh and ask him why don't you!" I run into Luke's bedroom, he's on his phone, but he sees I've been crying and pulls me into a warm embrace.

By the way, I'm sorry for this shitty update, but don't worry about what's happening now, it was all part of the plot, this isn't just pulled from my brain or anything. I'm gonna try to update more today and tomorrow and stuff but I hope this is okay for now. I'm really sorry about not updating by the way.
