If You Don't Know

As I waited for Ashton to get to the hospital I was talking to Michael, asking what happened. He said once Calum came downstairs, maybe 5 minutes later, she walked into the living room and then into some weird room activated by some button, came out with bottles, and then was up in her room for like 3 hours. I was furious. I should have told her. But I swore to Ashton I wouldn’t.


Ashton got here and I stormed to him. “You said you’d call it off.” I hissed. “What?” he asked, trying to act stupid. “YOU SAID. YOU’D CALL THE FUCKING THING OFF.” I shouted. His eyes grew wide and he pulled me away from the room. “Listen Luke, don’t you say a fucking word to her alright?” He growled back. “YOU FUCKING ‘FIANCE’ IS IN THERE, AND MIGHT BE ADMITED TO A FUCKING PSYCH HOUSE BECAUSE OF YOU. GOD DAMMIT ASHTON. WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS AGAIN!?” “I can’t feel love.” He said and started walking off.


I grabbed his shirt and pulled him back, “She stayed with you when you were out. She REFUSED. To leave, she loves you Ashton, you’re lying to your mom, and the rest of your mates. It’s fucking pathetic. Either you tell her, or I will. And either way, you’re out of the fucking band.” I hissed and walked back into the room with Tori. Ashton followed me and tried to act frantic. I scoffed and rolled my eyes. “Tori baby, are you okay?” He asked. I had to leave.


I walked into the bathroom and punched the wall and screamed. A nurse ran in and asked if I was okay. I smiled and told her I was just angry. She shot me a sympathetic smile and told me I would be okay. “Can you get Hannah Snowdon? She’s a guest, not a patient, in room 204” I said and she nodded. Moments later Hannah was in here. “Hannah.” I sighed, trying not to get angry. “What is it Luke?” she asked. I paced around the men’s room, trying to figure out how to say it. “You can’t say anything. No matter how mad you are… okay?” I said and she nodded. “Promise?” I asked and again, she nodded.


“Ashton, is just playing Tori. I swear it to you Hannah. It’s not jealousy. I’ve been following him almost every night these past weeks, and he goes to Alexandria’s house… and plots her heartbreak.” I said. Hannah balled her fists, and tears flowed out of her eyes. “Is this why she’s like this?” She asked, holding back tears. “I didn’t tell her what Ashton was doing.” I said and she sighed. “I won’t tell her, but if Ashton doesn’t by tomorrow. I will.” She said, “I told him the same goes for me.”



She screamed into her hands and I hugged her, “She’s like my little sister.” She cried. “I’m sorry Hannah. Ashton hasn’t always been like this.” I said. “When why now?! Why for my little girl?!” She screamed. “Alexandria. She’s bad fucking news. She made him th-” “Nurse to room 204 please” the intercom spoke and Hannah and I ran back to Tori’s room. “What’s wrong?!” Hannah shouted. “No…” I said as Ashton was dragged from the hospital room by the guards. “I HOPE YOU BURN IN HELL YOU BASTARD!” Michael shouted at him. “I COULDN’T BARE TO BREAK HER HEART!” He shouted back, tears in his eyes.


“What did he do?” I asked, trying, so fucking hard, not to cry. “He unplugged her IV that was giving her meds. Her heart flat lined.” He sighed and then we heard a steady beeping again. I let out a loud exhale and I felt like a weight was lifted off of my shoulders. “Jesus Christ.” Hannah spoke. And Oli appeared. “I thought he would be good for her.” He cried. “I’m so sorry.” Hannah said to him, “I should’ve seen it coming. Poor girl, she can never get a break.”


I walked into the room and sat next to her. She blinked and her eyes fluttered open, “Good morning sweetheart.” I said to her and she frowned. “My head hurts, where’s Ashton?” She asked and I looked over at Oli. He walked over and moved me to the side. “Tori…” Oli said, “Ashton, he uh, he had to go away for a while.” Oli sighed. “To where?” She asked. “Jail. He uh, he’s a bad guy. He’s not who you thought, or, who any of us thought.”



I could see her heart breaking through her eyes. “I’m so sorry Tori.” I said to her and she started crying. “Shh, darling shh,” I said, “Go back to sleep okay?” her eyes closed and I felt her breathing even out. “She’s never going to get over this one.” Calum said. “I’m going to help her.” I said and sat back down next to her.
