- Elena's POV -


I sit on the end of my bed and think about the events of today. What was that, back in class? I mean, I felt the urge to kiss him. It's weird, I know, but I wanted to kiss him right then and there. I've never had these feelings before, ever. I sigh as I pick up my art pad and start drawing my . The end product sums up my feelings exactly how I want it to. Satisfied, I put my art pad on the end of my bed. "Elena, hey!" Michael grins, barging in. 
"Uhm... Hi?" I frown. 
"How are you today? Feeling good?" He says in a weird tone. What the hell is going on? 
"I'm fine... Are you?" I question. He sits next to me on the bed, 
"I'm brilliant! Absolutely swell!" He winks. Okay, this is weird... 


"Yeah..." I chuckle nervously. 
"Yeah!" He grins widely. 
"Okay, what is going on, Mikey? You're acting really weird!" I blurt out. 
"Nothing, just seeing how my best friend is doing!" He smiles. Hm... 
"Hey, Elena!" Luke comes into my room too. 
"Is this, 'party in Elena's room day' or something?" I laugh. 
"No, just thought I'd come see you!" Luke laughs too, sitting down with Michael. They pick up my art pad. "NO!" I panic. 


The boys exchange a glance and smirk, they begin to open it and I lunge to grab it. They dive off the bed and I try to take it from them with no luck. "Elena, what's this drawing?" They ask, showing me the one of Calum that I drew last night. "It's Calum?" I chuckle nervously. 
"What made you want to draw him?" Luke wiggles his eyebrows. 
"No reason, I just felt like it." I blush, trying to grab the pad. No luck. 
"OMG!" Michael squeals. Shit, shit, shit. 
"Ellena! What is this?!" Luke grins excitedly. 
"N-nothing!" I lie as they show me the drawing I just did. 
"It looks like two people under a jumper! A girl and a boy!" Michael smirks. 


"I just felt like drawing it." I say, trying to hide the blush crawling onto my cheeks again. 
"Really... Well, we know that you only draw things that match how you're feeling or that inspires you. So; what inspired you to draw this?" Michael questions. 
"Nothing, I swear." I lie again. 
"So, not Calum then?" Luke winks. 
"How..." I whisper, dumbfounded. 
"THIS IS GREAT!" They cheer, running out of my room. 
"Wait!" I complain. Soon, Calum and Ashton have been dragged into my room. 
"ASHTON! PRIVATE CONVERSATION NEEDED!" Michael shouts loudly. They take him out the room and close my door.


"What's going on?" I ask Calum. 
"I have no clue." He mumbles, scratching the back of his neck. He's acting strange too... Why? 
"Sorry about that!" Luke apologises, him, Mike and Ash walking back in. 
"Guys, what the hell is going on?! And why are you all with each other? I thought you didn't get on?" I point out, feeling confused.
"We've come to realise we actually get on quite well." Ashton smiles. I'm getting really freaked out now... "So, fancy a game?" Ashton asks. 
"Sure?" I frown, still confused. 
"Great!" The three boys say together. They run out of my room and close the door. 


"Guys?" I frown. I try the door, realizing they've locked it. "What the hell?!" I growl. 
"They've locked us in?" Calum sighs. I nod. "Great." He rolls his eyes and takes a seat on my bed. 
"Calum, do you know why they're acting so strange?" I ask him. 
"What? No. No clue." He shakes his head, looking around instead of at me. 
"You're lying... Come on, I thought we trusted each other!" I pout. 
"Elena, I can't tell you..." Calum sighs. 
"JUST TELL HER!" Ashton shouts from the other side of the door. 
"Do you mind?!" Calum complains. It goes silent again. 


"Calum, just tell me... Whatever it is, can't be that bad!" I comfort. 
"I-I can't! It's stupid!" He moans. 
"Just tell me, Calum!" I push. 
"Fine." He bites his lip, "I-I think I... Well... I know... Elena, I-I love you!" He finally blurts out. Loves me? I can't believe it. Calum loves me? "Say something..." He begs. Truth is, I know what I want to say. But, I can't seem to say a thing. "I never should've said anything! I'm such a fucking idiot!" Calum growls, his nostrils flaring. "So?" The boys burst in suddenly, a hopeful look on their faces. "You're so fucking stupid! I tell you how I feel and you leave me hanging! Fuck you!" Calum hisses at me, storming off. Again... I stand there, trying to keep calm. But, it's no use, I start crying. I know, I know, overemotional. But can you blame me?! "I didn't even get to tell him that I loved him too..." I cried into Ashton's chest. 


- Calum's POV - 


I storm off and take a walk around the building. I'm a prick, an absolute prick. Why did I say that to her? I asked her for another chance to prove I was nice and I've completely blown it! I make my way to the garden and look around. No one's here. I can just sit and think for a minute or two. I take a seat on one of the chairs and closed my eyes. "OUCH!" I complain as someone hit me across the back of the head. "You're a right ass!" Ashton hisses. 
"I know! But she didn't even say anything! I never should've let you all talk me into telling her!" I defend. "You're an ass, because she's crying! I've just been with her and now she's crying with Michael and Luke because of what you did! What is wrong with you?!" Ashton argues. 



"I wasn't going to wait there looking like an idiot when she clearly felt awkward!" I spit. 
"She was going to tell you she loved you too, dumbass!" Ashton scoffs. 
"What?!" I gasp, surprised. 
"That's why she's so upset!" Ashton rolls his eyes, as if I should've known the whole time. I get up and he comes with me, all the way to Elena's room. I see her sniffling and it breaks my heart. I did this to her... I walk in and I pull her up. "Wha-" I cut her off by smashing my lips into hers. 


- Elena's POV - 


Ashton stormed off a while ago, leaving me with Michael and Luke. They both hug me as I cry into Luke's shoulder. "It's okay, Elena, don't be sad!" Michael soothes. 
"B-but he just left!" I sob. 
"He's just stupid!" Luke comforts. I sniff, my head hurting from all the crying. I'm suddenly pulled up from the bed and see Calum. "Wha-" I'm cut off by the feeling of his warm lips smashing onto mine... I pull away in shock. "What are you doing?" I ask. 
"I'm showing you that I'm sorry!" Calum sighs. 
"Well you should be. You did it again, Cal..." I whisper sadly. 


- Calum's POV -


Cal? She gave me a nickname? I like it, 'Cal'... "I know. I'm an absolute idiot. I never should've said what I did, I know I shouldn't have!" I complain. 
"No, you shouldn't have. It hurts so much, because... Well, because I love you too!" She says. I can't believe my ears. I mean, yeah Ashton told me already, but she said it herself! "You do?" I ask. "I do!" She nods, biting her lip. 
"Well then I'm even more sorry." I sigh. 
"Well, you're forgiven!" She giggles. That giggle is just amazing... I pull her into a hug and wrap my arms around her tightly. It's weird, I'm getting that feeling again. Except this time, I'm completely sure on what it is. Love...
