2.4 Foolishly, Hopelessly, Pathetically, Stupidly

5th August

-Perrie’s Point of View-

“PARKER!” I screamed as I ran down the beach,

“PARKER!” Calum shouted from behind me,

“PARKER PLEASE! THIS ISN’T FUNNY! YOU COULD GET HURT!” I screamed, it had been a good hour and I was starting to get a funny feeling in my stomach. I fell to the floor and started to scream and cry,

“Perrie,” Calum said pulling me into a hug, I pushed him off,

“NO CALUM! NO! HE’S GONE, MY BABY IS GONE AND IT’S ALL MY FAULT! WE SHOULD HAVE JUST SAT HIM DOWN AND EXPLAINED NOT DONE THIS BIG FANCY PLAN!”

“Perrie, come on let’s go back to the house. We’ll get the others to help us look for him, 6 people is better than 2,” He said,

“Okay,” I said, “Okay,”

“Okay, good let’s go,” He said helping me up, we ran up the stairs and into the kitchen.

“Oh my God Parker,” I said running over and hugging him,

“Hi,”

“Parker I thought you’d runaway, I’ve been looking for you for an hour!” I shouted trying to steady my heartbeat,

“Sorry mummy,” He said,

“Come on bud, me and you need to talk,” I said picking him up,

“Okay,” He said resting his head on my chest. I walked into the living room and shut the door behind us,

“Hey Park, want to tell me why you ran away back there?” I asked sitting on the coffee table so I was facing him,

“I panicked,”

“You panicked?”

“I’ve seen Calum on TV,”

“That’s because he’s a singer in a band Parker,” I said,

“He is?”

“Yeah, you’ve heard me play them,”

“What song?” He asked,

“Well do you know that song I sing to you when you’re going to bed?”

“Yeah, Beside You,” He said,

“That’s their song,”

“I thought he was on TV because he was bad,” Parker said looking at his hand, I laughed and cooed at him,

“No Park, he’s famous,”

“My daddy’s famous?” He asked,

“Yeah,”

“Wait until my school friends hear about this! Their daddy’s are all lawyers but my daddy’s a rockstar,” He said wiggling off of the couch and running out of the living room.

 -Calum’s Point of View-

I sat in the kitchen with my face resting on my hand,

“What happened?” Jen asked,

“We told Parker I’m his dad and he ran,” I answered, the boys gasped and I put my head on the kitchen counter,

“Want to know what’s even worse?” I asked,

“What?” Ashton asked,

“I kissed Perrie and I told her I love her,”

“WHAT? God Calum,” Jen shouted angrily,

“I’m sorry,” I said,

“What about Mary?” Luke asked,

“We broke up,”

“What! When?” He asked,

“Does it matter?”

“Yes,”

“As soon as we found Jen,”

“So yesterday?” Jen asked,

“Yeah, I guess,”

“Good God Hood,” She said pushing her hair out of her face,

“DADDY!” Parker screamed running into the room, I turned around and scooped Parker up,

“Hey,” I said,

“Hi, I thought you were bad because you were on my TV but mummy told me that you are a rockstar,”

“I’m not a rockstar, well actually I am,” I said laughing, Parker laughed and hugged me,

“I missed you,”

“I missed you too,” I said kissing his head.

 -Jen’s Point of View-

As Calum, Perrie and Parker started to talk about things they’d missed I looked at Ashton. He was smiling at Parker and Calum who were cuddling and playing with each other’s fingers. I need to tell him,

“Ashton,” I whispered walking closer to him,

“Yeah?” He asked,

“Can we talk?”

“Of course,” He said, I smiled and grabbed his hand leading him out into the back garden and towards the picnic table,

“I’m sorry,” I said,

“What for?” He asked,

“Leaving without telling you and for telling you that we were nothing,”

“Oh. It’s fine,”

“It’s not fine Ashton; it’s not fine at all,”

“Why did you leave?” He asked,

“Because honestly I felt like my parents didn’t care about me and they argue a lot, I couldn’t just keep jumping from person to person’s house,”

“You and I, we could have gotten a place. You know I was looking for somewhere,”

“That was the other thing,” I said,

“What?”

“I knew you were going to get big so I left before you could leave me,” I said with tears running down my face,

“Jen don’t cry, you’re too pretty to cry,” He said wiping my tears,

“I don’t understand Ashton, I am a complete bitch to you, I left you for God’s sake and you still treat me like I’m the only girl in the world,”

“Because you’re the only girl in my world,” He said, I laughed and wiped my tears,

“I understand if you don’t feel that way anymore but Ashton just know that I still love you and if I’ve ever told you I don’t or if sometime in the future I tell you I don’t just know that it’s a complete utter lie because I am always going to be foolishly and pathetically in love with you,” I told him, he didn’t say anything so I took it as I should walk away. I got out of the bench slowly and started to walk back to the house,

“Jen wait!” Ashton shouted, I stopped and looked at him wiping my tears,

“Yeah?” I asked, he ran over and kissed me,

“I’m foolishly, hopelessly, pathetically, stupidly in love with you too,” He answered.
