Cass P.O.V

I caught Ashton kissing Rebecca. It hurt but I tried as hard as I could to brush it off. I got in my car and cried but not for long. I drove home, parked my car and walked to Calum's place.

I didn't feel like seeing anyone besides him. I knock on the door and waited.

"Hey Ca- whoa wait, are you ok?" He asks looking at my dreaded face and red nose. I felt the tears again and just hugged him crying.

"Come here, I got you." He repeats into my ear. I finally calm down and take a seat on his couch. He closes the front door and sits down next to me.

"Now, can you tell me what's wrong?" He asks placing his hand on my leg. I nod and try to explain everything.

I clear my throat and say "I was the photographer at this wedding and I invited Ashton. I got busy with the photos and videos. I walked back to Ashton only to find him kissing Rebecca." I was looking around but mostly at the floor avoiding making eye contact.

"THAT BASTARD! I SWEAR I WILL KILL HIM!!" He yells in frustration.

"You're in the same band. You can't do that." I respond calming his range. He nods in agreement and hugs me.

"Well, then what are you going to do?" He asks emphasizing the word "are". I stayed silent for a while but finally said "I don't know."

He tries making me feel better by watching some movies and eating food. It works until I get this video sent from Rebecca. The text read:

Ashton's a good kisser aye.

I press the video and it's Rebecca and Ashton walking together. Rebecca is the one recording it with her phone. They sit down on a bench and they start kissing. Ashton doesn't seem mad at all. He looked like he enjoyed it.

The video stops with him smiling and clearly not knowing she recorded everything. My heart drops and Calum sees my eyes tearing up again.

"What was it?" He asks looking at my phone. I show him the video and halfway I cry again. This time bawling.

Calum instantly gets up from the couch and kneels down next to me. "Do me a huge favor and dive me to his house." He says angrily. "Wh-at's the p-point?" I ask in between sobs.

"Cass, that jackass promised he wouldn't hurt you. I need to talk to him and get his head straight. He hurt you. I don't want to see you like this." He brushes my hair from my face and with his thumb dries off the tears.

I end up driving him to Ashton's place. "Cass just stay in here." He says closing the passenger door. I nod and wait.

Calum's P.O.V

I walked to his door step and knocked. Ashton opened the door. "WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU?!" I whisper yell. "What do you mean?" He responds calmly. "Cass! You promised you wouldn't hurt her." I say more calm.

"I hurt her?" He asks in disbelief.

"Yeah! That stupid video of you and Rebecca ruined her!" I say.

"What video? " He asks completely dumbfounded. I pressed play and held up my phone to him. He took it and watched it.

"It really isn't what it looks like Calum. " He hands me back my phone and I simply say "This is you Ashton! You kissed her and fucking enjoyed it!" I yelled.

"I had no intention to hurt her."

"Well you did." I say storming off and getting inside Cass' car making sure I slammed the car door. She speeds up and drives me home. I decide to stay over at her house since she wasn't feeling well.

We pretty much talked the entire time and watched some movies. I told her about what I confronted Ashton with. She told me how weird and odd she felt. As if it never happened. She's a little lost and confused but I helped.

I fell asleep on her couch and she went to her bedroom. The next morning was calm but I woke up to crying. Cass had already woken up and was sitting on the stairs first step. I rubbed my eyes and rushed to her.

"What's wrong?" I asked concerned.

"My mom's death and Rebecca's video hit me harder than it should have." She said calming down her tears. I understood perfectly that all of this was really bad for her.

She looked like the weight of the world was literally on her and it wasn't good. Even though her mom passed away like six months ago, it still doesn't feel nice to bring that up. I hug her and made breakfast for the both of us.

We had fun and all but I had to go back home. I told her goodbye and walked home.

Cass P.O.V

I felt lifeless. I felt as if I could never develop feelings anymore. I kept thinking about the wedding, the video, Rebecca and Ashton. I needed my mom in this situation.

I hear a knock on the door. Walking up to the door I wipe my tears and eyes so they don't see that I have cried. It's Ashton. But it doesn't really look like Ashton. The once giggly Ashton, is now a mess and looks dead.

I don't say anything we just kind of make an awkward stare. I finally speak up and ask "What do you want?"

"I miss you Cass. I-I didn't intend to do this. I'm really really sorry." He says looking deep into my eyes.

"Come in." I simply say moving away from the entrance, allowing him to pass. Closing the door I turn back and Ashton already sat on the couch.

"I'll let you explain. But if I don't believe it, it's not on you, ok?" I held out a box of tissues while taking a seat next to him. He nods and takes the box.

"I began walking home after the wedding and Rebecca catches up to me. I asked her what she needed and what I could do to make things right with you. She said that if I kissed her, she would've helped me but it was a big lie. I'm sorry Cass, I was desperate and needed help." He says sniffling.

I try taking in the information in but I keep denying the fact that he didn't mean to hurt me.
