End Up Here // Michael Clifford

Chapter 14

Michael and I were cuddling on Calum's couch. No were not together. It's just...complicated. I have missed him so much. We'll work everything out later. Michael, Luke, Ash, and I were all hanging out at Calum's.

"So, are you guys together?" Calum asked.

"No I still hate him." I replied.

"Yeah but I love her." Michael added.

I sighed, "What are we going to do?"

"I think, personally, you guys should just makeup and Michael should stop being an asshole." Ashton said.

Michael whined, "Guuyyys. Stop mentioning that. I hate myself enough for it so stop."

"What do you guys want to do?" I asked.

Everyone was silent for a while.

Luke jumped from his seat, "I got it!"

"Really?" I asked raising my eyebrow.

Luke nodded excitedly. We were in the parking lot of our town's shopping center.

"Okay." I sighed, unbuckling my seatbelt and climbing out of the car.

"This is great! I can get my shopping done for Luke's birthday!" Calum exclaimed.

"When's his birthday?" I asked as we started to walk towards the shopping center.

"The 16th of July." Calum answered.

"Woah cool! Keely's is the 17th of July." Ash stated what I was going to say.

"Okay then I can shop for Keely too!"

We entered the store and looked around.

"What store first?" Michael asked intertwining his hand with mind.

"Food Court." I pointed in the direction the food court was and started to drag Michael towards it.

"It would be a lot easier if you just walked beside me." I explained.

He shrugged, "Kind of fun watching you struggle."

I glared at him so he chuckled and began to walk normally beside me.

"I know what to get you for your birthday."

"Great. I love presents."

"Most girls would just say you don't have to get me anything." He chuckled.

"Oh. Hell no. If there is an oppurtunity to get free stuff you take it." I explained.

"So, what's your favorite band?" He asked.

I thought a moment, "All Time Low."

He nodded. I looked back behind us. No Ash. No Cal. No Luke. Hm.

"So, about what happened at that club." He said scratching the back of his neck.

Honestly, I was hoping to ignore this talk. Seeing as there's no way around it I have to makeup my mind.

"Keely during the few days you were gone I missed you so much. All I did was eat and sleep. That's it. My heart literally hurt because I thought you were leaving me for good, and I-"

"Didn't seem that lonely." I cut him off.

He thought a while before his eyes went wide, "Oh, wow. I swear it wasn't what it seemed. She came and sat by me and I didn't want to be rude so I didn't say anything. Please believe me."

I squeezed his hand, "I forgive you."

He sighed, "You really shouldn't."

"Do you want me to change my mind?" I questioned.

He shook his head, "No, no, no no."

I smiled. He won't hurt me again. He won't. We decided to get slushies a the food court. I love slushies.

It was 11pm and I was finally back at Michael's house. After we were done shopping we had to go to Luke's and bring my stuff back go Michael's. I haven't been in contact with my Mum recently. Or my Dad. But I haven't really had the time to miss them.

"MICHAEL!" I called to him. He was somewhere in this house.

"WHAT?" He yelled back.

"I'M GOING TO RIDE MY SKATEBOARD A BIT NOW OKAY?"

"IT'S ELEVEN AT NIGHT I DON'T THINK SO."

Ugh. He sounded like his Mum.

"COME WITH ME THEN!" I yelled.

"Okay," He said jogging out to his living room, "Let's go."

I laughed at him then picked up my skateboard.

"You sure you don't want to learn how to skateboard?" I asked.

He waved his hand motioning for me to get off my skateboard. He got on it then started to ride.

"You know how to skateboard?" I asked.

"Yup." He smiled.

"Well. I bet I'm better."

"Is that a challenge?"
