I sat with the girls as the boys had left to meet Arabella. Callum had given me a hug before he left, saying he'd miss me.
I felt tense as we waited for them to come back, I didn't trust Arabella, she seemed to have a track record for getting with my guys.
"How do you know Arabella?" Molly asked, I knew the two were friends so she was either pretending she didn't know or she genuinely didn't.
"Uh, my ex cheated on me with her" I said, stiffly.
The girls gasped, "jack?" G Steel asked as I nodded my head in response
"Did she know you two were together?" Demi asked
"Well yeah, it was public and I saw her soon after and she was proper rude and stuff, as if I cheated, and some people that I know were out the same night they got together and heard her talking shit about me" the girls listened intently as I spilled the beans
"Oh my god" Kaz said, shocked
"It's not even that she took jack you know? Like if you can take my man, for all means take him. It's just the way she acted after, put me off"
The conversation drifted away from our past and more upbeat as we waited for the boys to return.
The doors opened and in walked Arabella as the boys followed behind. "Hi!" She exclaimed.
The other girls squealed as they ran to greet her whilst I instead went to the boys. Callum walked up to me and gave me a hug, "missed ya"
I smiled up at him as I replied, "same here babe"
"You don't like her" he whispered in my ear. It baffled me how easily he had learnt to read me over the past few days.
"My ex cheated on me with her. Not a good history between us" I said with a cringed face
"Oh" he said, longing out the h. "Come, I'll take you to say hi" I groaned at this, not wanting to do that at all. "Just greet her, I'm not telling you to be best friends with her. Come" he said as he grabbed my hand and took me to her.
As we approached her, she started side eyeing Molly, who was stood next to her, whilst pulling a face. "Hi" I said as politely as possible.
She laughed, bitchly, I might add before saying, "hi" before turning her back on me and talking to Molly.
I looked at Callum with wide eyes as I pulled him away, "and that is why I didn't want to greet her"
I watched as the girls gathered round the fire pit before following, not wanting to be left out. I sat down on the end next to Demi as one of the girls said, "give us the goss"
"It was like, we had an after party."
"What happened at the after party?"
"Obviously it was really nice to meet the guys. Obviously they all said that they were open. Yeah, all of them are open." She repeated, as if she was trying to rub it into our faces that they wanted to get to know. Good for her, I guess.
"Arabella, who would be your top three?" G Harrison asked
"Oh, I'm not telling you that right now."
The girls protested against her decision as I sat there in silence feeling out of place. The girls continued to chat as I saw Alex making his way over, "sorry to interrupt, but can I just steel Amz"
I nodded as I got up, smiling at him. "You ok? How was the after party?"
"Yeah it was good, I just wanted to check up on you, cause of your lots, uh, past"
I laughed before saying, "yeah like it's just really awkward, I went to say hi and stuff and she was just so bitchy for no reason" I looked back at girls who were looking at me, obviously telling Arabella what I had said whilst she was in the hideaway. I sighed at this, the girls on this season were really not my vibe.
"Well you're not in the wrong, if anyone's allowed to act bitchy it should be you. She's just bitter that Jack didn't call her back after that night" he said making me laugh.
We continued chatting for a while as I tried to build up the courage to tell him that I was sleeping outside tonight with Callum.
"Do you not want to get to know Arabella?"
"Nah, she's not my type of girl" I nodded, yet I already knew this, he liked brunettes.
As we continued chatting I saw Molly walk by, looking upset, "oops, what's happened there" Alex said as she walked past.
I sighed before replying, "god knows." I said before taking a deep breath "Would you be upset if I slept outside with Cal?" I said, before cringing at the way I spat the sentence out. "It's just, I really love you, but not in the way I used to. I think, that we ended things for the better, you know. It wouldn't be far on you if I continued letting you try, knowing that I wanted to be with Cal"
He didn't look too upset which made me feel a bit better. "Don't worry Amz, I get it" he said with a soft smile before hugging me.
"I think we can be really good friends now" I said causing him to burst out laughing.
"Yeah, alright"
I was getting ready for bed in the dressing room as I saw Molly, who still looked a bit upset, "you okay Mol?" I asked. Even though we hadn't made up after what she had said about me, I wasn't a complete bitch to overlook when someone's upset.
She sighed before saying "yeah I'm fine" as if it hurt her to reply to me, before sending a look to Arabella. I just walked away, not wanting to deal with any childishness
Me and Cal walked outside before getting comfortable on the daybeds. "I ended things with Molly, that's why she was upset earlier" I smiled before saying.
"We're so in sync! I ended things with Alex as well, but he was really nice about it." he smiled brightly before pulling me into as hug
"Finally, it's just us, not having to stress about other people. Sounds perfect to me"
I hummed as I stroked his head before we both drifted off to sleep.
It's been a while, sorry guys! Lmk what you guys think. I don't like Arabella, sorry, so she won't be very likable in this book Vote and comment!!!!
