Somewhere New (5 seconds of summer fanfic)

Chapter 6

MICHAEL'S P.O.V.

I wake up to find that me and Alyssa had fallen asleep hugging each other, so I try not to move around too much so I don't wake her. She's so cute when she sleeps. Every day I find myself liking her more and more, and I'm thinking that I should tell her; but at the same time I don't want to. What if she doesn't like me back? I don't want to make it awkward between us. I stare at her, thinking about whether I should tell her or not.

"I can feel you staring." she says in a cute sleepy voice as she slowly opens her eyes. Great job Michael, professional creeper in the wrong way, now she's never gonna like you!    

ALYSSA'S P.O.V.

"I can feel you staring." I say to Michael as I open my eyes. We must've fallen asleep hugging each other, because he's still holding me; I like this. I like being in his arms. I feel safe.

"Sorry, I couldn't help myself. You're cute when you sleep." he says shyly as my cheeks turn bright red.

"Where are the others?" I say as we both sit up, looking around the room.

"I have no idea where they are. What time is it?" he says.

"Umm it's 4pm. We slept in heaps." I say looking at my phone.

"Pfft we didn't sleep in that much." he replies as we both start to chuckle. We are then interrupted by my phone.

"It's Blake." I say, checking the caller ID.

"Oh, well, are you gonna answer it?" he asks, trying to act like he doesn't really care. I nod, answering the phone and putting it on speakerphone.

"Hey." I answer.

"Hey Alyssa, I was just wondering if you wanted to come over to mine and watch a couple of movies. My parents are out, we'd have the whole house to ourselves." he says. I look at Michael, hoping that he'd help me answer. He just shakes his head, mouthing the word no; I look at him confused.

"Um sure, why not." I reply to Blake. Michael then face-palms himself.

"Cool, I'll see you soon. Can't wait." he says, and then hangs up.

"What?" I say, looking up at Michael with a puzzled look.

"I just don't think you should be hanging around with him. I know the type of guy he is Alyssa, he's not a nice guy.' Michael says.

"What makes you think that? He was nice to me the other day."

"He may come across as a nice guy, but Alyssa you have to trust me, you shouldn't be hanging with him." he says, raising his voice a little.

"I can hang out with whoever I want." I say raising my voice a little as well.

"Alyssa, please don't go to his house." he practically begs.

"Give me one good reason why I sho-" I am cut off by Michael's lips crashing onto mine. At first, I don't kiss back. I then realise that this is what I wanted; to be with Michael. So I kiss back, our lips moving in sync. He then breaks away from the kiss.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have done that." he says, apologising to me. 

"No, it's fine." I say taking a step towards him, placing my hand on his.

"No, it’s not fine. I know I'm not who you want. You're going to Blake's house; you're going to be with him. I’m not good enough for you." he says moving his hand away from mine.

"Michael, don't say that."

"It's true, you want him." he says raising his voice again.

"You don't know what I want, and if you think Blake is the one I want then you must be crazy. Blake and I are just friends, and I want it to stay like that." I say also raising my voice. Before he could reply, I walk away; I leave his house and go home. Once I'm home, I get changed, and apply a little bit of makeup. I then quickly text Blake.

To Blake: hey, is now a good time to come over? x

From Blake: Yeah, it's a great time. Is everything ok?

To Blake: yeah, I’ll see you soon :s

*AT BLAKE'S*

"Hey babe." Blake greets me with a hug as I walk through his front door. His house is nice, but it feels empty. Probably because we're here alone.

"Hey." I reply.

"Is everything ok?" he asks.

"Yeah." I say half-heartedly.

"Don't lie to me, you can tell me." he says.

"It's nothing, Michael and I just got into a little fight about... About nothing." I say.

"What was the fight about, if you don't mind me asking?" he asks.

"Oh it's nothing..." I say. I can't tell him that me and Michael were fighting about him, it's just not right. 

"Tell me, please." he says.

"Fine, I'll tell you. But please don't be offended by any of it. Well, Michael was trying to convince me not to come here because you're not a nice guy..." I trail off as Blake's hands slither around my waist.

"Well he's right, I'm not a nice guy." he says leaning in so our foreheads are touching.

"Blake, what are you doing?" I say with a shaky voice as I'm scared.

 "You think I actually invited you here to watch a movie? That's cute babe." he says.

"Blake, please let go of me." I say, trying to take his hands off my waist. I'm unsuccessful though, he's too strong for me. Suddenly I feel his lips attach themself onto mine. Of course I didn't kiss back though, I was more concerned about his wondering hands. His kiss was nothing compared to Michael’s. The thought of Michael makes me want to beat myself up; he was right. I shouldn't have come here.

"BLAKE, I SAID LET GO OF ME." I shout, kneeing him in the crotch. I'm not normally one to use violence, but it had to be done. I didn't want this to happen to me, again. His hands immediately drop from my waist and are now holding himself where I kneed him. He falls to the ground, I feel proud of myself; I guess those self-defence classes came in handy after all.

I quickly run to the door and open it and keep running. My house isn't too far away, so I run the whole way there; I should probably get into shape though because man am I tired. Right now I want to call Michael, and tell him that he was right, but I can't.

Once I'm safe inside my room, I collapse onto my bed; I don't understand how today started off so well, but ended so badly. Even though I should feel safe being in my own home, I don't. The only place where I truly feel safe is when I’m around Michael. I really want to call him, but I’m scared he's still angry at me. I make a few indirect tweets to him, hoping he sees them.

@Alyssa_xo: you were right, i was wrong.

@Alyssa_xo: i need you

@Alyssa_xo: im sorry :(

@Alyssa_xo: i miss you </3

@Alyssa_xo: hope you're not still mad at me :'(

My phone suddenly buzzed, indicating that I had a new message. Surely it's Michael, it has to be him. Oh, it's Ashton.

From Ashton: Hey Alyssa, is everything ok? Did something happen between you and Michael?

To Ashton: yeah, everythings fine. we may have had a little fight, is he still mad at me?

From Ashton: I don't know, I haven't spoken to him. Sorry :(

Why does all of the bad stuff have to happen to me? I'm a good person, right? I decided that I should take a nap, because if I don't who knows what I might do. I’m about to close my eyes when suddenly there's someone knocking on my door.
