Promise Me Something

NINE

***Liv's P.O.V.***

"Kian let me do it." I walked over to the ladder and waited for him to step down. He passes me the light, which is heavier than I thought. I climbed up to the second to top step of the ladder and took the screwdriver and a screw off the top step. I lined the light handle up with the hole Kian originally made and held it up with the screw. I started twisting the screw with the screwdriver until it was stuck in the ceiling. "Done!" I call.

"Wait really?" Kian and Jc walk to the bottom of the ladder.

"Yup!" I smiled.

"It took Kian like...An hour to make a mess in the first place." Kian rolls his eyes at Jc's comment.

"Kian!" Ricky's voice called from the kitchen.

"Yea?" Kian yelled back as Ricky appeared in the room.

"Food's done." He said disappearing back into the kitchen. Kian, Jc and I followed him. When we got into the kitchen Ricky had plates and bowls of all kinds of different food.

"Woah Ricky, this is amazing!" Jc said reaching forward and getting a Dorito.

"Yea Ricky, awesome." Kian hi-fived him.

Jc's text tone rang throughout the kitchen as he reached into his back right pocket and pulled out his phone. "Nash wants to know when we're starting." He tells us.

"Well what time is it now?" Kian asks.

"About 1ish." Ricky checks his own phone.

"Why not 4? That gives us enough time to get dressed or whatever and set everything out." I ask.

"Sounds perfect!" Ricky says.

"Alright. Well I'm going to go get dressed up." Jc turns on his heel and walks towards the stairs.

"Jc! I'm coming with you!" Kian runs after him.

"Well...Liv, you want to come help me decide what to wear?" Ricky asks.

"Uhh...Sure." I smiled at him as we walk up to his room.

"This shirt or this shirt?" Ricky held up a pink/red singlet with a boat steering wheel on the bottom right side and a thin, navy hoodie with the sleeves rolled up.

"Umm...The red one. But wear it with your grey jeans and black and white Nike shoes." I tell him.

"Genius!" Ricky yells and gets his shoes out of his closet. He puts his shoes on the bed next to me followed by his shirt and jeans. "Hey, lets go to your room and pick out your outfit." He suggested.

"It's fine Ricky, I've already got mine." I lied.

"Alright then. Come show me when you're ready." He smiled and took off his shirt.

"Fine, see ya." I walked out of his room and over to my own.

I had no idea what I was going to wear so I decided to take a shower and think about if after.

When I stepped out of the shower the bathroom was filled with the scent of my mango soap. I wrapped a grey and white striped towel around myself and walked out into my room.

I looked into my closet and finally chose the dress I wanted to wear. I got changed into my dress, slipped my shoes on and did my hair up.

I looked at the time and saw that we had half an hour till people were arriving. I grabbed my phone and went into the kitchen. All the food had disappeared off the bench and I heard voices outside. "Kian!" I called.

"Out here!" I heard Trevor call back. I walked outside and saw the boys and Eboni standing in a circle outside. Sam was looking straight at me. I walked over to them and stood between Sam and Jc.

Trevor was wearing light blue jeans, a grey shirt, black and white Converse shoes and a black leather jacket.

Ricky wore what I suggested he wear but added an arm full of assorted bracelets.

Kian had a grey baseball shirt, beige jeans and black and white vans.

Jc wore a blue, white and red shirt that said LET'S PARTY, a grey beanie, blue jeans and blue vans.

Sam wore a black sweater with sleeves rolled up, black jeans, a blue and white bandana, black and white Converse and a blue, red and white tartan flannel tied around his waste.

Eboni was wearing a peach dress with lace on satin on top, a pink belt with a silver bow in the middle and a flowy, frilly bottom. It went down to her mid thigh. Her long blond hair was curled and had a plait going around the back of her head. Her shoes were black high heel boots with gold domes on the back and a gold zip.

I looked to the ground then up at Sam. He was still staring at me but quickly flicked his eyes away when he saw me look at him.

***Jc's P.O.V.***

She was beautiful. She wore a red dress that went down to her mid thigh with a silver patterned tick on the top and a frilly see through layer of black over the bottom. Her brown dip dyed blond hair was curled and she wore a red flat hat with a black ribbon going round it. She wore red vans with a black tip and black laces. She was perfect and I can't believe that I screwed up with her yesterday. Sam said last night that he was going to kiss her tonight at the party. I told him that I liked her and now he's trying to make a move on her cause I failed the first time.

I saw Sam glaring at me out the corner of my eye. I shot a look back at him and quickly looked back down at my shoes.

***Sam's P.O.V.***

Jc was infuriating! He knew I liked her but still he asked her out. I told him that I planned to kiss her tonight, which angered him. I looked over at him. He was looking down at Liv and didn't take his eyes off her. He saw me looking at him and glared at me. I looked away from him and to Ricky who was talking about Pokémon or something.

***Liv's P.O.V.***

Ricky was doing his Scyther impression when there was a knock at the door. "Boys! Party's here." Cameron yelled from the other side of the door. I laughed as Kian walked over to the door. He opened it and Nash and Cameron came inside. They started 'bro-hugging' the boys as Eboni and I stood there watching them. "Boys are so weird." She stated.

"They're only weird when they're like this." I laughed. "See him?" I pointed to Cameron.

"Yea? Cameron right?"

"Yup. He sold me a skateboard for $20 this morning. I don't know who the other guy is though." I tell her.

"That's Nash. He's...Different." She shrugged.

"Want to go say hi?" I ask her.

"Umm...Sure, why not?" She started walking over as I followed closely behind her. I watched Cameron introduce himself to her and take her hand and kiss it. I saw her cheeks turn a dark shade of red as he did it. Nash came up behind Cameron and introduced himself to her. Cameron winked at me and I laughed silently before turning around and running upstairs in search of my laptop.

When I was upstairs in the silence of my room I heard my text tone.

From Jc: Something's up with Kian. Something SERIOUS!!

To Jc: I know.

From Kian: We need to talk tomorrow.

To Kian: Is everything alright? Sure we can.

To Jc: He literally just texted me saying he needs to talk to me tomorrow. Depending on what he says I'll talk tomorrow.

From Jc: Mmkay. What're you doing?

To Jc: Getting music. Anyone else arrived? I swear I heard a car pull up.

From Jc: Yea. Caspar Lee, Joe Sugg, Oli White, Will Darbyshire, Zoe Sugg, Tanya Burr, Jim Chapman and Alfie Deyes.

To Jc: From England? Wow.

From Jc: They're still in town from after Playlist Live.

To Jc: Oh cool! I'll be down in 5 :)

Kian never replied to me but I just expected him to be talking with his friends. I put my phone back in my dress, grabbed my laptop off my desk and closed the door behind myself.
