Five days later..

Katherine's POV

Ashton is coming today.

Yay !

Well not exactly today , i mean his flight is today , and it will take i don't know how many effin hours to arrive but still, i am so happy and excited that for the first time in my life i woke up really early.

Can you see how much i miss him !

God , this week was a disaster , it felt like a year with him away.

Sleeping alone , waking up alone , with him not beside me is so hard.

Even though we talk everyday, and we talk a lot , but still , i want to touch him , hug him , kiss him and do many many many other things.

I let out a sigh as i checked my phone, he hadn't called since yesterday noon and his phone was turned off after that time , I wonder if there is something wrong.

But he said he is really busy and he will call me before he get on the plane so he will probably call me soon.

The moment i placed my phone away , it started ringing. Butterflies erupted in my stomach as I directly grabbed it but they faded instantly when i saw an unsaved number calling me.

With a frown on my face i hit the answer button , "Hello." I said but no one answered.

"Um hello ?" I said again then looked at my phone, "Anybody there ?"

I heard someone taking a breath , then his voice came low , and almost pained , "Katherine."

I closed my eyes for a second and clenched my jaw , without saying a word i removed the phone from my ear and hanged up.

He called again and i declined it again , he called another time and i also declined but he seems to be so damn stubborn because he kept on calling.

When he will stop messing with my life ? With my and Ashton's life ?

Feeling anger build inside me , i answered this time , "What do you want Caleb ?" I asked , my tone harsh.

"Katherine please .. Please listen to me." He said , his voice pleading , "Can i see you ?"

"No." Was all i said.

"Please Katherine... i need you." He said again , i noticed how his voice is pained , he sounded really tired.

"No Caleb , no." I said , "Stop calling me."

"No no don't hang up , just one last time , please listen to me." He said again , his voice is so weak as he talked.

"I will do anything, but please." He added when i kept silent, "I promise i will leave Ashton alone , I won't interfere in his business anymore , i will go out of your life ... But let me see you , just one last time." His voice cracked as he muttered the last sentence.

For unknown reason my chest tightened at how vulnerable he sounds.

"For old times sake Katherine." He added. "Is this a part of your plan or something ?" I said , i still don't trust him.
