Chapter 15.

I step into the elevator and immidiately rememeber that if Calum is in the hallway and those doors open, and i walk out with Harry it will tick him off, 'What floor are you on?', i ask Harry, '80, you?', '70', i replied. I felt my shoulders losen up after he told me that. 'I had a nice day today, thank you Harry', he smiled at me and walked closer to me, we were only at floor 40 but it felt like we had been in this elevator for hours.

Harry cupped my face with his hands and tilted his head slightly, is he going to ki-, my subconscience was cut off by Harry's lips crashing into mine, i dont know what happened to me, my body wasnt letting me pull away, my body just kept telling my brain it was okay, for some reason my body was telling my brain to kiss him back, he licked my bottom lip and i opened my mouth slightly allowing his tongue in, what are you doing Scarlett? you have a boyfriend, that loves you, no matter how hard i tried my body wouldnt budge, Harry finally pulled away when he heard the 'ding' sound of the elevator, 'floor 70' the robotic voice inside the elevator said, i walked out of the elevator and turned to face the doors just as they were shutting, 'Goodbye, Scarlett', Harry smirked at me just as the elevators shut tightly, i hated my body and my brain right now. I've been with Calum for only 4 months and now my brain is telling me its okay to cheat with someone i just met?!? This wasnt fair, on me or Calum. I love him, i dont love Harry.

I'm scared to open the door, but i do it anyway. Everyone is there, on the couch. Surrounding Calum, he has his head in his hands and i can hear him sobbing, 'I'm such an asshole', i hear him say, i shut the door to loudly and everyone looks up at me, Luke hops up from the spot he was sitting in on the coffee table and runs towards me engulfing me in a hug, 'Scarlett', he says, 'Dont ever do that again, please', he says.

Everybody stands up and wraps there arms around me, except Calum. He hasn't moved. He didnt even look up when i shut the door. 'We're gonna leave', Adam says, and everyone follows him out of the door. I'm hesitant as i walk towards Calum, i sit next to him on the sofa and place my cold hand around his arm, he flinches from the cold impact, but still doesnt let down his guard. 'Calum', i speak softly, 'Calum, please look at me', he puts down his arms but i dont let go, i cant. The moment he looks at me my heart aches, his eyes are bloodshot and puffy, 'I was so worried Scarlett', he speaks, the tone in his voice alone makes me want to cry, 'I know Calum, im sorry. I just had to get away, i had to leave. That was the first time we've ever argued and i never want it to happen again, i love you Calum and im sor-', im cut off by Calum pressing his lips against mine, he wraps his arms around my waist and i wrap mine around his neck, after what happened only 5 minutes ago in the elevator i cant erase Harry's face from my mind, dammit Scarlett. I can't ruin this moment for Calum. I push Harry to the back of my mind and focus on whats important, Calum.

'What are the 1D boys doing today?', i ask Adam, i'm sitting at the breakfast bar of Calum and i's hotel room, in my pajamas while Adam is munching on an apple, he was the only person awake at this hour of morning, of course. It was 4 am when i woke up, jet lag of course, i watched a bit of TV then got bored, i knocked on every door and Adam was the only one that answered, and now here we are in the kitchen on the fanciest hotel ive ever been in, chatting about nonsense at 5 in the morning.

'Well they're going shopping with all of you first, then im pretty sure they're rehearsing a few new songs, they want to have atleast 2 new songs to surprise the fans with, they're going to release them after the concerts. They have both the songs ready but they just need to practice, i think one of them is called Best Song Ever or something and the other song is called Kiss You, they both sound great', he replies, 'The first concert is in 3 days. Exciting isn't it?', he asks me, '3 days, wow it seemed like just yesterday that they were rehearsing in my garage', i reply. He laughs, 'I'm going to go back to my room now, i should atleast try to get some more sleep. I have a huge day of planning with the boys manager, ugh i dont even want to think about it', he says opening the giant mahogony door, 'Bye Scarlett, try get some more rest', he says as he closes it.
