"Chris stop!" You said, glaring at him. He raised his eyebrow at you.
"Make me"
"Ooh" you heard Malcom say, teasing at the possibility of a conflict while he drank his drink. But you paid no attention to it, not when Chris was at risk of doing something stupid.
"Christopher Sturniolo" you threatened, knowing he had a reaction to his full name being called. "Leave your hair alone before I shave it all off"
"Okay, I'll make a deal with you" he bargained. "I'll leave my hair alone if.."
"If?"
"If you go to dinner with me after the show"
You stared at him, a smile forming on your face. You looked down, shaking your head, laughing softly. Chris didn't take his eyes off you, his smile getting wide. Malcom was just invested in the scene.
"You're crazy!" You said. "Of course we can go, it'll be fun"
Chris' eyes lit up in delight.
"Now, give me the brush before I change my mind" you held your hand out to him. Chris handed you the brush and walked past you to sit on his chair, giving Malcom a fist bump while doing so.
It was amazing how well you got on with all the guys. The end of tour was close, but you didn't want to focus on the sadness, instead you wanted to enjoy it all while you could. You didn't except to get along with any of them as well as you did.
You always considered Jack like an older brother. Who would've thought the rest of the guys would fall under the category? They always made sure you were taken care of as well as having fun.
For quiet moments, Malcom was perfect. It didn't seem like that at first, knowing he had a reputation for being loud. But if someone understood the need of staying silent and doing nothing, it was him. He was your guy. Nick was the complete opposite. He never stayed quiet for long, lifting your spirits when you felt down. He made you laugh the most. If someone won a soft spot on your heart, it was Nick.
Then there's Matt and Chris. You wouldn't tell this to anyone, but they were your favourites. They were sweethearts. You had rocky starts with both of them, but you wouldn't have it any other with them. They always look for excuses to hang out with you and you found it funny. But what you didn't know was that they were both smitten by you.
Matt and Chris laid eyes on you from the beginning, jumping at every chance to talk or hang with you and the funny thing was, that you were unaware. Only if you knew what you were getting yourself into...
You were unaware of these feelings that you didn't notice Chris' smile.
"So" Malcom started, when you were doing his hair. "Are you going to stay for mine and Trill's performance or are you just gonna go back to the hotel?"
You never missed a performance. You loved to dance to the music and you even made up your own dances with Laura. You were living your best life watching the guys perform.
"I'm staying the whole show"
"You can miss at least one of our performances"
"Who's going to miss the performances?" Someone asked, opening the door.
Everyone turned and saw Laura walking in with Matt and Jack. You smiled as they took a seat in front of the mirrors. Matt's eyes were on you through the mirror, smiling at you and Chris looked down.
"I was just asking her if she was skipping mine and Trill's performance so she could ready for their date" Malcom said, pointing between you and Chris.
