For better or for worse.

chapter 9

When I got home, I was thinking about me and Ashton, then me and Luke, then me and Ashton. My head was spinning and I was so confused, I was just about to walk into my house when I heard someone speak behind me.

"So where did you get off to then." I heard someone say, when I turned I revealed Connor with a not very good look on his face.

"Oh my God Connor you scared me..." I paused for a minute looking at him, until i realised I hadn't answered his question. "Oh I passed out apparently at the party, then Luke carried me upstairs and I spent the night at his." I said smiling at him trying to figure out why he looked pissed.

"Where were you today Sam?" He said walking towards me. "I was so worried about you, I thought something had happened to you. All I got was your text at like 1am asking if I could look in on Benji" He looked sad and I felt bad, I hadn't spoken to him all day and I could understand why he was annoyed.

"I'm sorry I was... with Ashton." I hesitated a little at the sound of Ashton's voice. Connor looked down at me and gave a small smile.

"Tell me all about it." He said giving me a warm smile, then embracing me in a hug. Once we went inside and I had told him about everyhting, he decided to spend the night at mine.

-------------------------------------------------

The next morning we woke up having fallen asleep on the couch watching 'How I met you mother' which was our favourite programme. I woke Connor up and got in the shower. I got out and threw on my metallica tee shirt and denim shorts, even though it was fall there was meant to be a mini heatwave coming up from the south and the one thing I hated was when you were boiling hot and couldn't do shit about it. I knocked on Connors door and he came out wearing one of my brothers shirts and the jeans he was wearing yesterday not bothering to go home after he met me at mine. We walked out to the car and I smirked at Connor as the sound of the engine was like a clean whistle and she started up straight away. We both looked at eachother before I decided to add a little pun to the day.

"Yi-pi ki-ay mother fucker." I said to Connor smirking at the sound of my car. We both laughed as Die Hard was one of our favourite movies.

Once we arrived at school we got out together and walked in to our lockers. I glanced over to see if Ashton and Luke were with the populars. They were. I smiled at Luke when he walked over to me.

"Hey Sam." He said with that warm smile that was so adorable.

"Hi." I said back to him feeling Ashton seething behind him accross the hallway.

"How's your head? You hit it on a chair just before I caught you when you passed out." He said pointng to the side of my head where I noticed a bumb was yesterday but never knew how it got there.

"Oh that's how that got there." I said feeling the bump that had gone down a little. "It's fine." I said to him smiling. He smiled down at me. Man this guy was tall. Second bell rang and Connor and I had Geometry which Ashton would be in, crap I didn't know what I was going to say to him or even if i was going to say anything to him. "Ok well I gotta go,  I'll see you later Luke." I said turniing around to grab my Geometry books out my locker and then walking down towards the classroom.

"Yeah, I'll see you later Sam." He said smiling and walking the opposite direction to me. I saw Ashton follow Connor and I down the hallway  to the classroom and he hadn't spoken to me yet, Connor and I walked in and went to the back of the class and took our usual seats. I saw Ashton walk in and shoot me a glare, what was his problem? He was wearing Black ripped skinny jeans, rolled up at the bottom with black vans and a rolling stones  tshirt with his flannel tied around his waist and a black bandana around his head. He looked hot, but that  wasn't going to take me away from the fact that he had a problem with me and I wanted to find out what it was. He went and sat on the other side of the class, but I was too annoyed, so I just focused on what the teacher was talking about and tried to forget about it.
