+ maegan
I had went downstairs to sit alone after the person Michael just had to let us meet came in. It was only Ashton. Apparently, the person hasn't made it yet.
I sighed and grabbed my phone from its place on the counter. I press the home button, making the screen come to life, before entering my password. Clicking on the music icon, I scroll through my songs before picking "Without The Bitter The Sweet Isn't As Sweet" by Mayday Parade. As Derek Sanders' angelic voice echoes through the kitchen walls, I slouch over in my seat, staring at the bland wallpaper ahead of me.
"Hey, you okay?" I hear Ashton's familiar voice chime from behind me.
I turn around and plaster a fake smile onto my face. "Of course, why wouldn't I be?"
"Don't bullshit me, Maegan," Ashton says as he puts a hand on my shoulder.
I feel my bottom lip tremble and, just like that, I am hugging Ashton tightly by the waist, sobbing quietly in to his shoulder while he's rubbing my back.
"What happened?" Ashton asks, his voice barely over a whisper.
"Madison and Calum... I, I came home to see them cuddling on the lounge couch. I-I don't know if it was the fact that Madison h-had just called me that f-fucking morning to say that she was still in Adelaide or the fact that she fucking k-knows I'm p-practically in love with Calum that hurt me the m-most. I-I don't even know why I'm so d-damn upset, i-it shouldn't have h-hurt me, r-right?" I whisper, tilting my head to look up at Ash slightly.
His jaw clenches ever so slightly as he just pulls me closer.
"Okay, guys, she's her- Woah, woah, what'd I miss?" I hear Michael say as he walks into the kitchen. I quickly move apart from Ashton, wiping my eyes furiously.
"Nothing, you didn't miss anything," I say, my voice bolder than just seconds before. Michael smiles at me sympathetically before reaching behind his back.
Just then, a girl around my age but way shorter comes out from behind Michael.
"Guys, meet Dawn."
