Chapter 14.

I sat with Calum at the long table covered in food, there was everything from Pizza to Apples. We continued to eat and chat about boring stuff, with the odd stare from Harry it was an amazing time meeting them.

'We will see you in a few days! Thank you again for having the boys on tour', Adam thanked the manager as we walked back towards the escalator, 'I feel like im going to explode', Michael said, 'Me too, i ate way to much', Ashton replied, 'I need a shower', Luke said sniffing his arm pit, gross. I was waiting for Calum to say something, but he didnt, he was being really quiet.

We reached our room and Calum plonked himself of the couch and closed his eyes, i sat on the coffee table infront of him and he opened his eyes and looked at me, 'Why are you being so quiet Calum?', i asked, 'I'm not', 'Really? You spoke to me once at lunch which was so i could pass you salt and you didnt speak at all on the way back here', 'I saw the way you looked at Harry', what? 'What are you talking about Calum?', 'You gave him the same look, the one you always give to me. I've never seen you do it to anyone else but me', 'Calum if you are trying to suggest that im into Harry, thats where your wrong. I was being nice because i only just met him', 'Yeah well it didnt seem that way Scarlett', it had been so long since he called me by my full name, 'So what, you think that im going to come to the most gorgeous country with the most gorgeous boy then im just going to fuck off and leave you for someone i only just met?', 'It would seem that way', i was on my last nerve, i have to leave. 'I'm leaving', i picked up my bag and grabbed my coat, i walked out the door and towards the elevator. I dont know where im going, but all i know is that i cant be here right now. I cant believe me and Calum just had our first argument, over Harry? How ridiculous. I only just the met the damn bloke and he thinks im going to run off with him!

I reach the busy streets of London and walk. I have no idea where im headed but i need to be fast otherwise Calum will probably come looking for me and find me straight away.

I'm running through a lane full of boutique's when i feel someone grab my arm, i turn around and pray it isnt Calum.

'H-harry?', 'Why are you running, Scarlett?', 'Um-u-i-ah i dont know, really', 'You dont know?', Harry giggles, 'Would you like me to take you somewhere that you will know?'.

what the hell does that mean?

'What do you mean?', 'Well, i was on my way to go sight-seeing for the 67th time and i saw you running, so i got out and followed you. My car is parked up there', he points to the end of the lane and i still have a confused look on my face, 'What im trying to say is, would you like to come sight-seeing with me?', 'Oh um, sure', i smile, Harry walks me to his car and opens the passenger side door for me, 'Thank you', i say, i get in and quickly check my phone, 3 missed calls from Luke, Ashton and Michael, 17 missed calls from Calum and 6 unread messages. I turn my phone off and place it back in my bag, im in London, id rather go sight-seeing than be depressed and annoyed.

Harry parks in a back-alley and gets out, what kind of adventure is this? 'Come', he instructs, holding out his hand, i hesitantly take hold of his hand and follow him through 3 narrow streets before we come to a stop, 'Close your eyes', he says, i do as im told and he leads me onto a soft surface, this better not be dirt. I can hear kids laughing and adults chatting away, where did he bring me? 'Open', he says, i open my eyes and have no idea where i am, until i spot the giant fountain. Im in Hyde Park. 'Oh my gosh, Harry!!', i squeal, hugging him, for some reason i dont want to ruin the moment, Calum, think of Calum, i gently pull out of the hug, 'This is amazing, thank you Harry'.

We walked through the park talking about random stuff, i asked Harry a few questions about what life is like on the road, then we walked back to the car. Harry took me to a few other places after that, Big Ben, Buckingham Palace and the giant Harrods store, he pointed out a few other landmarks along the way. I decide its been long enough giving Calum the silent treatment, i turn on my phone and read the texts the boys left me,

Calum:
'Please come back to the hotel Scarlett, i'm sorry',
Luke:
'Scarlett where are you? We're all worried, Calum especially. He feels terrible for arguing with you, please come back x'
Michael:
'Yo Scarlett, you want me to pick you up or something?? Calum's worried about you',
Calum again:
'Scarlett answer me please',
Ashton:
'Scar where are you?',
Calum:
'Scarlett, i'm sorry. I'm an idiot. I shouldnt have got so wound up over the tiniest thing, im scared Scar, i dont know where you are and i dont know who you're with, anything could happen to you in this city and thats whats scaring me, and now you're not replying to anyone it makes me even more scared Scar, please, come back',

i decide to reply to Calum and not the other boys, i suspect that Calum will tell them anyway,

'Cal, you're not an idiot. I understand you're scared, im scared for us. You mean so much to me and it would kill me to lose you. I love you', i pressed send and turned back to Harry.

'What are you thinking about?', Harry asked, 'I-i dont know', he caught me off guard, 'What are you thinking about?', i asked back, 'Im thinking about the world, how magnificent the world is. How is it that Dolphins can use 10% more of their brain than humans can? or how is it possible that th- you fucking idiot!', Harry was cut off by his own self, he pressed the car horn so violently, not letting it go until the person in front of us noticed that he had just cut in front of us, 'You have a dirty mouth, Harry', 'Oh really?', he smirked at me.
