Three weeks had passed. They had moved to a new hotel where Mikey, Ash, and Violet shared a room and Calum and Scarlett shared a room, and Addy and Luke shared a room.Calum and Scarlett had started dating, as did Addy and Luke. Michael and Violet had started to get to know each other more and more.
"Good morning beautiful," Michael said , his lips to her ear, "Happy Birthday." He began to tickle her.
"Stooooop Michael!" She whined, hitting him with a pillow then laying her head back down.
"You have to get up! It's your birthday!" He put his arms around her and squeezed until she couldn't breathe.
"Okay Michael I'm up! I'm up!" She said, sitting up.
"Good Moody-ass." He laughed and kissed her, smiling.
"What time is it?" She asked, rubbing her eyes.
"A little after noon." He answered. She fell over on the bed.
"What are we doing for your birthday, Love. We'll do Anything you want." He said grabbing her hand.
"Let's just hang out here. You and I."
"You have to get out a little Violet. You've been cooped up in this tiny room for three days." He whined.
"Fiiiine. We'll go to the mall. But I have to go say happy birthday to Addy." She said laughing at his adorable baby face.
"You're to good to me, Violet, " He laughed, kissing her on the forehead, "I'm going to take a shower. Care to join me?" He joked.
"I'm your dreams, Clifford. "She joked back.
"I know right!" He started walking.
"Where's Ash?"
"He's with the other guys...and gals." He laughed. As he showered, she quickly undressed and picked a pair of black skinny jeans and a black striped sweater. She pulled on the pants and sat down in front of a mirror. She put in her headphones and jammed to grade 8 by Ed Sheeran while putting on her makeup. She had gotten lost in the music and forgot about Michael. He walked out of the bathroom in nothing but his underwear singing Let Love Bleed Red by Sleeping with Sirens and noticed she was shirtless, too. He walked up behind her and wrapped his arms around her, resting his chin on her shoulder. She pulled out her headphones. He pushed his skin up against her cold back.
"You're really warm." She giggled.
"You're really cold." He also laughed.
He kissed her on the cheek and then spun her chair around. He shifted to where her legs were around him and he was pushing her against the table which held her makeup. He got centimeters away from her mouth.
"I really, really want to kiss you." He whispered. She couldn't help but blush at his adorable accent.
"What's stopping you?" She asked, trying to hide the fear in her voice.
"If I kiss you, "he bit his bottom lip, "I won't want to stop." She bit her lip and took a deep breath, staring straight into his green eyes.
"But, " he smirked, "I'm willing to take that chance, if you're alright with it."
"Shut up and kiss me, Clifford." She said and their lips met. He put his hands on her waist and ran them up her sides, making her wiggle around. He put his arms through hers, around her shoulders, and picked her up moving her to the bed, still kissing her. He layed her down and crawled on top of her. He kissed her neck and collar bone, making her squirm around, then back to her lips again. A few minutes later, there was the sound of a key card sliding
In and out, and the door opening. They both jumped up and Violet grabbed for the blanket on the bed, covering herself.
"Oh God, " Ashton laughed, "I'm sorry." He quickly turned out of the room.
"Damn, " Michael Laughed, "he ruined it." he crawled back on top and leaned in and started kissing her again. He moved from her lips to her neck and kissed all around until he found her "sweet spot" which made her gasp and him giggle. She grabbed his face and made him kiss her lips again. Michael ran his hands down her sides until they were gripping her waist. He unbuttoned her pants and pulled them completely off, throwing them on the floor. A few moments went by and there was nothing separating their bodies. Violet stopped kissing Michael and started to sit up.
"What is it Violet? What's wrong?" He asked, putting a strand of her hair behind her ear and looking at her body, which he found beautiful.
She pulled the blanket over her naked body, feeling self conscious. "I'm a virgin. And I'm not comfortable with this body. I hate it."she said frantically.
"Your body is perfect. I couldn't imagine better." He smiled, "we don't have to..."
"No! I want to, "she interrupted, " I'm just...I don't know what I'm doing and I'm worried I'll fuck it up and..."
"Hey. Don't worry about anything. Just relax and let me take control. I'll be gentle. It might hurt a little at first but that's it." He said, grabbing her hand.
"I'm not worried about pain Michael."
"Then what is it, Love?" He looked into her eyes for deeper explanation
"I'm scared that... that I'll sleep with you and...and you won't have feelings for me anymore and I'll lose another person and."
"Violet that's NEVER going to happen. I love you, Violet. I love you. I want you to be mine. Forever." He said, looking at her with his caring eyes.
"I don't know what to say right now..." she said.
"Don't say anything then. Let me show you how much I love you." He whispered.
"Okay."she whispered.
"Do you trust me?" He asked.
"I trust you." She whispered.
After a long time of passion filled moans, whispers, lust, and kisses, Michael rolled off of the top of her, pulling her in close. She snuggled up against his fully exposed body.
"You're so warm."she said panting and running her finger over the tattoo on his arm.
"You're so beautiful. I love you." He kissed her forehead.
"I love you too, Michael. I'm going to take a shower." She said, messing up his hair.
"Can I join you?"he asked jokingly.
She grabbed his hand and walked into the bathroom turning on the shower and getting in, pulling him in with her. He looked at her up and down, making her blush. She looked up at him, (her being 5'1, him being 6'1), and pulled her face to his chest.
"You're so short." He said.
"What?" She asked, pulling away.
"I said you're so short. It's adorable." He laughed.
"Shut up Michael! " she joked.
After they both showered and finished getting ready, they walked down to Addys room where all of the other guys were. When they walked in, Michael had his arms around Violet, his hands resting on her tummy, and his chin on her head. Ashton gave Michael a "you just got some" look and Violet a "you're supposed to be a good girl" look.
"HAPPY birthday, Addy."Violet said, hugging her.
"Happy Birthday, Violet." She smiled.
"What are we doing today?" Addy asked.
"We were going to go to the mall for a bit. You guys want to join us?" Michael asked.
"Yeah sure," Addy said," can you guys excuse us for a minute?"
" yeah sure." The guys said. Addy pulled Violet into the bathroom.
"Okay Violet. Spill it. What's the matter with you?" She asked.
"What do you mean?" She asked.
"I mean you're acting completely different. Wait a minute... you're face is glowing...Michael is being touchy...you're wearing his shirt...", she gasped, "You had sex with Michael didn't you!!?" She shouted.
"Shhhhhhhh." Violet covered her mouth.
"Oh my God you did! Violet tell me all about it! What was it like? Did it hurt? Was he gentle?"
"Addy we can talk about it later but right now I'm in a hurry. Get dressed and let's go to the mall." She laughed.
"Fiiiine." She whined.
Violet walked out of the bathroom and into the room where Michael and the guys were.
"What we're you guys talking about in there?" Ashton teased
"Notthing important." She smiled, standing by a couch. She stood there for a minute and Michael motioned for her to come over and sit. He put his arm around her and pulled her close, making her warm inside and out. Addy finally came out of the room ready to leave and they all took off to the mall. When they got there, they were all thirsty so they went to tropical smoothie.
"What do you want babe I'll order." Luke said to Addy.
"Strawberry Banana please." She smiled.
"What about you, love?" Michael said, holding her hand.
"Same as Addy." She smiled.
"I'll be right back." He smiled letting go of her hand. While he was gone, she felt this longing feeling inside if her. She felt like she absolutely couldn't be apart from him. And he felt the same. They got back and everyone had a smoothie. They began walking around the mall.
"Violet, you stay here. I'm going to get your birthday present." He smiled.
"You don't have to get me anything!" She said.
"But I am. Ashton. Keep her here please." He laughed.
"Yes sir." Ash joked.
Michael was gone for a few minutes.
"I'm gonna go to Barnes and Noble, Ash." Violet said, finally.
"Okay you Nerd." He laughed.
"Oh shut it." She knocked off his bandana.
She walked to the book store and went straight for the F. Scott. Fitzgerald books. She reached for a hard copy of The Great Gatsby, which she had read 100 times and held it in her arms. Then, she moved to the journals. She found a brown leather journal with a lock and key and picked it up.
"perfect." She whispered.
She was looking around when all of a sudden she felt arms around her.
"Hey, love."
"Hello Michael."
"Whatcha looming for?" He asked.
"Nothing in particular. "They got to the movies/ TV shows and she picked up The Walking Dead.
"I love this show." She smiled.
"Never seen it."
"You're shitting me, right?" She asked.
"No really. I've never seen it."
"Well I know what we're doing tonight." She smiled.
She payed for her books and they met the others. They had all decided to call it a day and go back to the hotel. Ashton decided to spend the nught with the other guys. Michael and Violet layed cuddled up on their bed watching the walking dead and Michael loved it.
"What is your favorite guy character? " she asked him.
"Daryl. You?"
"Daryl. Who's your favorite girl character?"
"Carol. You?"
"Michonne." She smiled.
"Okay...I have to ask you something." He said, pausing the episode they were on.
"What's that" she smiled.
"So we've gone on dates. And "things" have happened."
"Yeah?" She said.
"So I guess I want to make it official. Will you be my girlfriend?" He asked her.
"Mhm. I'll be your girlfriend." She smiled, kissing him on the lips.
"Are you ready to call it a night?" He asked.
"Yeah. Cuddle me to sleep?" She laughed.
"Of course!" He pulled his shirt off and cuddled up next to her wrapping his arms around her.
"I love you Violet." He whispered.
"I love you too." She whispered back.
"Oh yeah!" He said, jumping up.
"What is it?"
" I forgot your birthday present!"
"Oh."
He handed her a big, blue teddy bear who was holding a peacetea.
"Awwwwe. He's so cute!!"she squeaked.
"Next one." He handed her a small box. She opened it and saw a silver ring with an infinity sign on it.
"It's a promise ring." He said putting it on her finger.
"It's beautiful. I love it."
"Last, but not least..." he pulled out a yellow envelope.
"What is this?" She asked.
"Well... you know how Addy was going to have to go home in a week."
"Yes?"
"Open it." He said laughing. She carefully opened the envelope.
"It's passes for Addy to come on tour with us. Violet Addy and Scarlett both get to stay with us!"
"Awe. Thank you so much Michael. I love you." She kissed him, and pulled him into bed.
"I love you too." He smiled.
