I swooshed the bitter dark red wine in my glass as Claire ran out to the kitchen to tend to her crying baby. I frowned to myself and took a large chug from my wine glass listening to the dismal crys of Athena Jet Hemmings. Jet, for a girl? I know but Luke had thought it'd be a good name; of course she only agreed to it so Luke had more of a reason to stay in her and Athena's life.

They got married three years ago while Claire was 19 and Luke 22 they got married due to the baby and with Claire's luck she ended up truly loving him to a point she found him to be her soulmate. Unfortunately, also with Claire's luck Luke found a girl every night who believed they were soul mates as well. The crys ceased after five minutes giving me enough time to down my glass of wine and start on my second. Claire's sluggish footsteps sounded through the house as she descended down the steps. When she came back into the kitchen I saw fully the ware and tear of being a young mom had done on her, it'd probably be easier if she wasn't raising Athena on her own.

"She's finally down again" She sighed and took a sip from her wine glass. "When is Macie and AJ getting here?" I asked her earning a simple shrug. "She said sometime around 3 which means in the next couple minutes or so she also told me your favorite person is coming" she teased. I let out a groan knowing exactly who she was talking about "please tell me your joking" I pleaded but she giggled "nope, Jem is also attending our little get together" "Claire" I drug out her name "you could have told her no" I whined as I took a sip from my glass. Claire chuckled "I hate you so I told her yes" I gave her a funny look causing her to chuckle again "what was I suppose to say? Yeah we're all married to them and we hang out all the time but that doesn't mean you can come because your married to Michael" I cringed at the thought of her being married to Michael. He truly and purely loved her, never cheated, never even looked at another girl just gave all his attention to her while she did the opposite and slept with multiple guys a day which normally I wouldn't care if another girl did that but she's married and purposely hurting him just for pleasure, none of us had the heart to tell him sadly.

A knock sounded on the door signaling that Macie and AJ had arrived. I smiled out of excitement and put my glass down, heading to answer the door as Claire went to retrieve Athena for the play date with AJ. I rushed to open the door and engulfed Macie, who was holding AJ, in a loose hug. Macie had a similar story to Claire her and Ashton had a son together and had gotten married when she was 21 and he was 25, that was two years ago. The pair named their son Ashton Fletcher Irwin Jr. or AJ for short. I hurried them inside and headed for the kitchen as her and Claire headed to put AJ and Athena in the playroom. They came back just as I was done pouring Macie a glass which she immediately started to drink then looked up at me with a look of sympathy which I knew meant bad news was coming my way.

Without a word Macie pulled out her phone then after a few clicks she was holding a celebrity gossip article in front of my eyes.
ARE ROXANNE AND CALUM SPLITTING?
Late Thursday night Calum Hood, bassist of 5 seconds of summer, was seen outside a hotel room, but not alone. He had been pictured(As seen below) with a fiery red head, the two seemed incredibly familiar with each other as Calum led her into the hotel room; not without a shared kiss of course. Does this mean CALANNE is officially over? Or does Calum have some female skeletons in his closet?
I cringed and turned my head from the phone, proceeding the gulp the rest of my wine. "On the bright side this is the first time in about a week I've seen one of our husbands in the news for sleeping with another girl" Macie commented. I'd be angry if I wasn't use to the feeling of being cheated on, I don't know why Calum even married me and I don't know why I haven't left him yet. "Why couldn't Michael and I have fallen in love, I'd actually be happy with him instead of marrying a guy who practically hates me" I whined. "To bad I snatched him first" Jem's voice rang out through the kitchen causing us to glance at the doorway of the kitchen where she stood. "You can't- you can't just walk into someone's house" Claire pointed out, Jem smiled at her slyly "you aren't just someone you're practically my sister" Jem grabbed the wine bottle and a wine glass then emptied the last of the wine into the glass.

She had just walked in and I already had enough of her. I pretended to check the time "oh how did it get to be so late, I'm sorry Claire and Macie but I have to go." I placed my glass in the sink and grabbed my purse before beginning to walk out just as Jem's phone sounded "oh looks like they're home early Michael just texted saying they're getting off the plane now. Only a matter of minutes before we get to see out loving husbands." Jem took a sip of her wine before continuing "or well I get to see my loving husband, have fun with y'alls, especially you Mrs. Hood I saw the article about him having some...fun with a young red head." I gritted my teeth hard before continuing my way out of Claire's home and driving home making sure to drive slowly not wanting to see Calum.

I sighed and walked through the front door of our house noticing instantly that our wedding picture was off the wall and placed faced down the table in the hall just below where it was originally hanging. I closed and locked the door and headed to the kitchen to grab a beer, where Calum was with the same idea. He glanced at me and I glanced at him; no words exchanged, no emotions shown. He handed me a beer and then grabbed himself one before walking of the kitchen, leaving me all alone.
