Chapter 18

~~Ashton's P.O.V~~

The whole summer, Michael and Luke barley spent any time with me and Cal. It's like we where the 3rd wheel. We really did become great friends with Ally and Elijah, but it was like me and Cal where only there when we went on stage. Although, I was ignored a lot, I was still happy. I've never seen Michael and Luke so happy before that I even felt slightly jealous towards them. It'd dumb, but I kind of made me want to get my own lady friend. But it's not like I hated them, they were pretty cool girls. I can tell sometimes Ally would make Luke go to us instead spend more time with her, but he wouldn't budge. When we all did get together, we played something stupid like Monopoly, that's when I felt like they were in some weird way part of the group, except every few minutes, Michael and Luke would try to kiss their refusing girls, and me and Calum would sit there awkwardly watching. 

The summer went by quickly. Before I knew it, Elijah and Ally where going back home. When I saw them leave, I honestly felt a tint bit of relief strike me, and I knew Calum felt it too. Finally they'd go back to normal, like old times. I couldn't be more wrong. Luke really fell off the cart, Michael was better at hiding his emotions, but I could tell his heart was ripping apart inside. One day, about a few days ago, he was sitting in his room alone looking at pictures of him and Elijah, I  saw tears running down his green eyes. I got out of the room before he could see me. Seeing Luke and Michael like this made me feel guilty for ever wanting the girls gone. 

Tonight we got invited to a party though, I knew this would never be a good idea, but Michael insisted on it, saying "We need this." Luke really didn't want to go, neither did I and Calum really didn't care. But then Luke got up. 

"Fuck it guys, I'm going." I knew this was never going to end well, "Come on Michael, Calum, let's go, Ash you coming?" A fake smile stretched his face. 

"Guys fine I'll go, but please don't do something you'll regret," I looked at Michael then to Luke, "Both of you," 

~~Michael's P.O.V~~

As we headed out the door, I knew that tonight wasn't going to end well, but I didn't care, I needed a few drinks. I knew that I was going to end up doing stupid, that I would probably regret in the morning, but my only hope was that Ashton would try and keep me away from the bar after a few drinks. I wish my mind would of been thinking more straight. Luke was starring out the window of the limo every few minutes, then back to his phone checking when we're going to be there. 

When we got to the party, It was crowded, I saw the bar, and headed straight towards it. On my way I felt girls trying to rub themselves on me, but I didn't need that. I sat down on a stool, and too my surprise, Luke sat down next to me. 

"Luke, what the hell are you doing at the bar, you never had a sip of alcohol in your life," Luke just starred at me till the bar tender came over.

"Would you like anything?" As I was going to ask for a beer, Luke's words pushed out before I can open my mouth. 

"2 shots please." I looked at him with surprise in my eyes, I didn't know Luke even knew the term shots.

"Coming right up sirs." This night was defiantly going to end bad, Ashton was no where in sight. 

~~Luke's P.O.V~~

Michael was looking at me like I had just came out of space. All I did was order some drinks, but than again, I never did that before. Fuck it, I don't care anymore, I just wanted to get drunk.
