Poppy's P.O.V:

After collecting our orders and choosing where to sit, the boys got into a random conversation about a new Xbox game. Olivia nudged me.

'are you blind?',she whispered.

'huh?'I replied, confused at her question.

'everyone sees it, Pops. Luke fucking Hemmings likes you' she whispered excitedly, her eyes focused on Luke, checking to see if he was listening. He wasn't.

'In my dreams Liv. He's a teenage heart throb, He can get any girl he likes. I'm not his type. I'm not like them other girls.'

'Exactly. You're different. That's why he likes you. Your natural. Even Ashton said he can see it and he can read Luke like a book. He always asks if your okay. I've seen him staring. You wore his clothes and you shared his fucking bed. And don't deny you don't like him.'

I blushed, feeling my cheeks warm up. I tried to hide it by taking a sip of my frappe but it was no use.

'I don't', I said barely a whisper.

'You do and I know it. Poppy, how
long have I known you? I know when your lying'

I sighed.

'I guess I do a bit. But nothing will happen. I'm not good enough. I know that. I wouldn't be able to handle it. Not after...' I trailed off. Harry. What he did.

I started to fidget, catching the boys attention.

'Pops, are you alright?', Michael asked.

'She's fine. Just thinking. It's um hard to explain'. Olivia mumbled on, trying to save me from answering.

'I'm fine, just don't worry, I'll be fine' I cut in, trying to sound cheerful. I don't think it was very convincing.

'We know something's up Poppy. We're here for you. I'm here for you. You do know that?' Luke quietly said.

My heart started to speed up. He sounded genuine.

'It's a long story' I said, barely a whisper.

'Whenever your ready love' Ashton said.

'Soon'. That was all i said.

They nodded their heads and got back into a conversation about there tour.

I wasn't really listening and Olivia had pulled out her book. John Green of course. She couldn't put it down. Reading was one of her escapes so I couldn't blame her.

I felt as if these boys really cared and were genuine. The other half of me felt as if it wouldn't last long. They'd be leaving for a different city in a few days. Would I ever see them again? They'd forget about me of course. Luke seemed to care though and what Olivia said couldn't be true.
I sighed inwardly, trying to push my thoughts to the back of my mind.

I looked over at the boys. They seemed to be chatting more quietly and secretively. I didn't think much of it but one thing did catch my eye. Calum.

As the boys were chatting, he would always look up across the room to the counter where we were served. I frowned in confusion, trying to see where he was looking...

The barista. The gingery/brown haired boy, with the name tag 'Jack' was staring right back. He had a blush on his cheeks. He seemed very nice when he served us but you could tell he didn't like his job.

Calum was staring back, with a lovey dovey smile on his lips but would often look around to see if anyone was watching him. Why are they looking at eachother like that? Wait. I looked at them both trying to come to a conclusion, my eyebrows furrowing. Maybe they knew each other? old friends? I couldn't quite figure it out.

I looked at Calum and I realised how happy he suddenly looked. I smiled. His brown eyes then set on me and his lips turned down. Shit. He caught me. I looked away suddenly, trying to act normal and push the thoughts of him away. He was hiding something big and I was going to find out.

Calum's P.O.V:

Jack. As soon as I saw him I couldn't get him out my mind. There was something that pulled me towards him wanting to know him; his life, his fears, the things that made his heart race, his likes and dislikes, everything.

I gulped. I can't think about him. I'm not into boys. I'm into girls. Boobs. Butts. They're the things I like.

I looked over at him slightly, trying to not feel anything for him.
Big mistake.
He was staring right back with a slight blush on his cheeks. He smiled and looked away quickly, embarrassed that I'd caught him.

I felt myself smiling, as I saw how he reacted to me looking. He was very attractive and I couldn't help myself from admitting it. I couldn't stop. I looked away, but found myself staring back again. What was wrong with me? It's felt so wrong but so right.

I wasn't listening to a thing the boys were saying.

I had just looked away for the 10th time when I caught a pair of green eyes on me. Poppy. No no no no. How long has she been staring?? Her eyebrows were furrowed. I bet she was more then confused. I bet she hates me. She looked away before I could give her a look, trying to act normal. Well done Cal. Ugh. I looked back at Jack who's smile was still plastered onto his face. Cute.

The thing that confuses me the most is I don't know when I started thinking like this. One day, I was staring into a crowd of girls, admiring their beauty. The next, finding a boy in the crowd and becoming attracted.

I can't think like this. Cal, get your head together before this tour continues. Girls Girls Girls Girls Jack Girls Girls Girls Jack Girls Girls Girls Jack Girls Jack Jack.

"Earth to Cal. Caluummmmmm"
Mikey was waving a hand in front of his face, a smirk on his lips.

"Dude, are you listening?" Luke said, laughing slightly. 

"Yeah yeah of um course" I stuttered.

The boys shrugged and got back to their conversation.
I pushed all thoughts of love and likes to the back of my mind.
