One minute I was simply minding my own business walking down sunset boulevard with my best friend Mark singing along to sam smith, the next I'm knocked down to the ground by some asian looking hob knocker.
"What the hell" I yell at the guy towering over me as mark snickers.
"My bad" he stutters in a thick Australian accent as he outstretches a long tan muscular arm to me. I gingerly accept the gesture as I examine the stranger. He was extremely tall compared to my short stature. He wore a pair of black ripped skinny jeans paired with a plain black muscle tee and black sunglasses.
"Oh my god aren't you Calum hood" mark suddenly screams out of nowhere, causing people shoot him several glances. With one swift movement Calum takes the hand outstretched to me causing me fall back down straight on my ass, and covers marks mouth.
"Ever heard of the paparazzi mate" He says to mark who simply continues to stare at him in awe. I finally realize that we were in the middle of the sidewalk and that I should probably get of the ground, before I get trampled on by one of the many people passing by us.
"Thanks for the help" I mutter sarcastically as I dust off my black maxi skirt. The dude just stares at me for a moment making me a bit uncomfortable.
"May I help you?" I ask him crossing my arms across my chest.
"With what?" He asks me completely clueless that was a rhetorical question.
"You obviously need something if your still here staring at me" I reply narrowing my eyes at him.
"Can't I stare at a pretty girl?" He retorts, a cocky smile plastered on his face. This guy was already making me wanna punch him in his extremely attractive face and I just met him. Mark lets out a high pitch squeal but covers it up with a cough. I shoot him an as if look before replying to the annoyingly attractive stranger.
"Not this one" I spat.
His head falls back as he begins to laugh "feisty, just how I like em". I roll my eyes at him before grabbing marks wrist and shoving past him.
"Hey where are you going" he asks trailing behind me and mark as I pick up my pace.
"Ava, do you have any fucking idea who that was?" Mark asks me as I make a sharp turn into urban outfitters.
"Don't know don't care" I reply, deciding it was finally safe to slow our pace down since I was sure we had lost the stranger.
Ignoring me Mark continues with his rant while I stop to look at the sales rack. "Thats fucking Calum hood hoe"
"And I care why?" I ask unsure of why mark was making such a big deal of some random guy on the street.
"Because legit one of the members of 5 seconds of summer was just flirting with you" he retorts emphasizing on every word.
"Who are they?" I ask looking up from the sales rack to look at mark. His eyes wide from shock of my question.
"What do you mean, who are they" Mark asks with shock. "Do you live under a rock or something bitch?".
"No mark I just actually have a life" I scoff returning my gaze back down at the clothing rack.
"You guys must really suck at hide seek" The stranger says appearing out of nowhere whose name is apparently Calum hood.
"Calum! I was hoping you'd find us" mark says to him tugging at my arm to pull me from behind the clothing rack. "This is Ava and I'm mark"
"Cool, well I followed you since I felt like owed Ava here an apology lunch for knocking her to the ground" he says smiling as he raised his hand to scratch the back of his neck.
"No than-"
"She'd love to" mark replies cutting me off. "what time and where?" He asks Calum with an eager smile.
"Uhh well I'm just here on tour and I don't really know any place good" Calum says clearing his throat. Before I could speak mark once again cuts me off.
"Theres this great café across the street you guys could meet there tomorrow, say around 12:00" mark says to Calum. There has never been a time where I have wanted to strangle mark more than this moment in right now.
"Sounds great, I need her number though" Calum says flashing me an extremely cocky smile.
God I wanna punch him right now.
"Absolutely" mark replies reaching into his back pocket for his phone.
"Alright its 323-415-7089" mark states as Calum types it into his phone.
"Mark can I speak to you privately" I say to him pulling him away from Calum.
"Not now hunny were discussing business" mark says to me yanking his arm from my grasp and walking back over to Calum.
"Sorry about that Calum, what were you saying" mark says returning his attention back to Calum.
"Sooo 12:00, yeah?"
"Yeah" mark bubbles, If somebody were to walk in on this whole situation they would think that mark was actually the one getting asked out.
"Ok well I've gotta go buy coffee for the rest of the guys and I'll see you at 12 Ava" Calum says sending a wink my way.
"Highly doubt it" I retort.
"She's going!" Mark calls as Calum leaves the store.
"What the hell was that mark!?" I yell shoving him, earning a few concerned stares from a couple of employees and shoppers in the store.
"Would you lower your voice, and if you don't go out with him I will" mark says giggling.
"Then why don't you?" I retort walking towards the exit of the store.
"Because he pursued you Ava" marks scoffs catching up to me.
"Whatever I'm not going" I state.
"Yes you are" mark says as we walk towards our car parked at a parking meter.
"No mark" I reply, walking to the other side of the car and getting into the drivers seat.
"Ok I didn't want to have to pull out the blackmail card, but if you don't go I will be forced to release a certain Christmas picture from last year" Mark says, sliding into the passenger seat.
"You wouldn't dare" I say turning so that I'm completely facing him. Flashbacks of last years Christmas float through my mind causing me to cringe.
"I would" he retorts narrowing his eyes at me. We have an intense stare off for a couple of minutes until I give in. realizing mark was dead serious.
"God mark" I groan, starting the car and slowly pulling out onto the road.
"You love me" Mark says laughing.
