Starting Over • m.c

Chapter 17

Bright lights. Sirens. People talking. What was going on? Where am I?

"She's awake." A voice from the distance says. "Hey Angela, you are in the hospital you were hit by a car. I need to ask you a few questions" I hear the voice getting closer. I nod and agree. "Okay so first, what is your full name?"

"Angela Melanie Lawrence"

"Okay, what's the date?"

"September 16, 2016"

"Okay. Now, do you remember anything that happened last night?"

I think back to last night. It was honestly just a huge blur, the last thing I remember was seeing those pictures of Michael and then I was at the bar.

"Uhm.. The last thing I remember is leaving the bar"

"Okay. So good news, no serious injuries. Just a broken leg and minor wound to the head. We had no idea who to call, but we contacted your parents and they are on their way to Australia" these words hit almost harder than the car. Not my parents, anyone but my parents.

"What? You had no right to call my parents!"

"I know, but he needed to contact somebody incase something major happened, and they were the only ones that came up under your name"

"But nothing serious is wrong! You couldn't have waited!?" I was furious, I did not want my parents coming here to start telling me how shit I was to the world and how much of a huge disgrace I was to them.

"I am truly sorry, we didn't know who else to contact though. You need to get some rest, I'll check back on you later" she left the room, and it became quiet.

I can't believe my parents are coming. I picked up my phone and called Maria.

MICHAEL'S P.O.V

Another awesome show! And another day closer to going home!

We get off stage and go to our dressing room. We all take seats on the couch and the 2 chairs and check our phones as usual. Nothing new or exciting happening on my twitter, no new texts, calls, nothing.

"Oh, fuck" Ashton says as he checks his phone.

"What?" Luke, Calum and I say in unison.

"Uhm.. It's Angie" my heart sunk, I haven't heard her name in so long. "She.. She was in an accident the other night."

"WHAT!?" Luke practically yells. "Is she okay!?"

"Yeah.. Maria said that she got hit by a car after going to the bar after she saw pics of Michael with, and I quote 'some slut'. She says that nothing serious but she has a broken leg and a minor head injury."

I could feel my body shaking, I was scared out of my mind. Did I do this to her? Is this my fault?

"What did she mean by 'pics of Michael with some slut'?" Calum said as everyone started to look at me. I completely ignore their looks as I get up and start heading for the exit.

"I have to go see her. Sorry guys you are going to have to finish the tour without me" I don't wait to hear or see their reactions I'm out of the door and getting in a taxi in no time. I get to the airport and get the first flight back to Aussie.

My heart is racing as I get into the plane, I can't think straight. All I can think about is Angie. I need to see her. I need to tell her I'm sorry and that nothing actually happened. The plane takes off and I put my headphones in to calm me down, Wake Me Up When September Ends by Green Day comes on.
