Michael's POV

*One week later*

My phone buzzed crazily on my bedside table which disrupted from my slumber. I sighed and slammed my hand against it until I found the phone. My hands rubbed over my pale face and I placed the phone against my ear and mumbled a greeting to whoever had called me.

"Hey Mike!" Ash yelled through the phone. 

My reflexes kicked in as I pulled the phone away from my ear as soon as his voice raised. I rolled my eyes at his perky attitude and groaned into the phone when I put it back against my ear. I stared at the blue wall infront of me whilst I waited for him to talk.

"Are you coming over to Calum's today?" He asked. 

"Yeah, whatever" I sighed and sat up in my comfortable bed. 

"What time?" I asked and rubbed my eyes. 

"Uh- I'm heading over at about twelve-ish.. I'll pick you up on the way there?" I agreed and fell back against my bed. 

I heard his chuckle erupt through the speaker as I tried to bury my head back into my pillow. Why is my bed so comfortable when I have to get up? It's always so uncomfortable when I try to sleep.. I rolled my eyes and heard him inaudibly mumble something. 

"Michael, get up. It's quarter past eleven!" He scolded. 

"Ugh, fine. See you soon" I hung up and eventually got out of my bed and approached the bathroom. 

I switched the shower on and brushed my teeth whilst I was waiting for the temperature to heat up. Once I had finished I splashed my face and looked at my tattoos in the mirror. They all meant alot to me, each one of them had a different meaning. 

I washed my blonde hair with some random shampoo that my mum had bought that was supposed to keep my hair dye in for as long as possible. 

Once I had finished in the shower, I wrapped myself up in a soft towel and stomped back to my bedroom and blasted All Time Low whilst I got myself dryed and whilst I chose an outfit to wear which didn't take very long. 

I decided on black skinny jeans with a black Hot Chilli Peppers T-shirt and a black leather jacket with my all black converse. I used some hair gel to give my hair some volume before spraying some lynx and putting on my black sunglasses. 

Ashton's car horn echoed from outside of my house and I groaned as I realised that I have to actually go outside and leave the comfort of my own home. I switched my music off and shoved my phone into my pocket before leaving the house and climbing into the passenger seat of Ashton's beaten up truck. 

"Will Luke be there?" I asked curiously. 

"Yeah, probably" Ashton snorted. 

"Good" 

"Uh- Has Calum said anything yet?" I asked to break the silence. 

"About what?" He asked.

"Why he's being so weird around all of us" Ash shook his head and we pulled into Calum's driveway.

Calum's phone was vibrating on the couch beside me and I began to feel curious. I questioned whether I should see who is texting him or not.. I don't want to invade his privacy or anything like that. 

It buzzed a few more times and I picked it up and unlocked it with the password that I knew off by heart. Calum would do this if he was in this situation so I suppose he won't mind that I'm doing it. Some random girl named Maya was texting him about hooking up. 

I snorted and closed the message app. I decided to click on his camera roll so that I could laugh at all of his cringey selfies that he had taken. Curiously, I scrolled up and spotted something and couldn't believe my eyes. 

No. 

No this can't be possible.. 

Why? 

What? 

HOW?! 

My eyes were wide and my mouth was slightly agape. I locked his phone as the three boys were approaching the living room. I threw his phone back down onto the couch and I was unable to look at him the same way.
