This makes me speechless. It's so beautiful and I never expected that the present would be something so precious. It's a very personal gift and that makes it even more special. I open the necklace and tie it around my neck.
"It looks so beautiful on you," Calum says, "Do you like it? I can buy you something else if you don't..." "It's perfect, I love it." I say and wrap my arms around him.
Then Eva comes walking into the room with Ashton, and when she sees the smile on my face she grabs my arm, pulling me out of the dressing room. "How did it go?" She asks and I shrug. "I will try and forgive him. He even took the effort to buy me something for my birthday, even though it was two weeks ago." "Yeah, I saw it. It's beautiful. I can't believe he did that." My sister says and I smile. "I'm thinking about hanging out with him later this week. Is that a good idea or not?"
She nods and I smile. "Okay. Shall we go back in?" I open the door to the dressing room, but I'm stopped by Luke, who comes walking over to me. "Can I talk to you for a moment?" he says and Eva walks away to buy food at a vending machine.
"Did he apologize?" Luke asks and I nod. "He did. Did you tell him I would be in the crowd tonight?" I ask, but he shakes his head. "Michael did. Ashton said he didn't want Calum to know, but Mike couldn't keep his mouth shut like usual. Sorry for that."
"No, it's okay. Really, I think we even figured some things out. We said what we wanted to say and I'm prepared to give Calum a second chance."
"Good," Luke says and gives me a hug, "I think I'll be speaking for everyone when I say we would like to hang out with you as long as we're here. We'll be here for another two days."
"We'll hang out, I promise." I then walk back into the dressing room. Calum's still there and I say, "I guess I have to go." "But we'll hang out, won't we? I promise we will. Maybe tomorrow? And I'll fly to the Netherlands whenever I have the chance. I can even bring Mali-Koa, she's always wanted to go to Amsterdam." "You should do that," I say, "And tomorrow is just fine. We were planning to go visit the Colosseum, but that's after three. I assume you know where my hotel is?"
Calum blushes and looks at the floor. "Yes, I know that. Meeting at ten in the morning then? I'll figure something out we can do." I nod and say that's okay. Then Eva comes walking in, saying that we have to go back to the hotel. Calum wraps her in a hug first and then he gives me a tight hug. "See you tomorrow. By the way, that dress looks amazing on you." he whispers in my ear, making me blush. "See you tomorrow Calum." I say and then Eva and I walk over to the rest of the guys, who are standing outside Calum and Michael's dressing room. They were obviously spying on us, because I see Michael grinning like an idiot, and Luke is looking at the floor like he wasn't just looking at the door. The only one who didn't seem to be listening was Ashton. He immediately looks at Eva when she comes walking out the door and she smiles at him, at which he smiles back. All my worries about me making Ashton sad by hanging out with Calum are immediately gone. I can see that they like each other by the way they look at each other. Not in a like, like way, but I can see that they both have made a new friend.
When we get back to the hotel I get a text from Calum and I fall asleep with a smile on my face.
