"it was a last minute thing pretty, we only found out two days ago"

"no, i get that... but you're only telling me now" she sighed, rubbing her forehead

"you don't have to come den, im not forcing you to come just because we spent the night together"

"i want to come eli, i never said i didn't..."

he wrapped his arms around her waist from behind, resting his chin on her shoulder "it's just one show, okay?"

"i know it is eli" she smiled, resting her head against his own "i just wanted to do something just us tonight, but you know i love watching you perform" she hummed, spinning around in his arms. her hands wrapped themselves around his neck as her back pressed against the counter, a smirk working its way onto eli's face

"really? what's your favourite eh"

"you pull quite a few faces when you perform" she laughed, eli rolling his head back with a groan

"but you're also very attractive... i'd by lying if i said it wasn't a turn on" she mumbled

"what was that?"

"nothing hewson" she smiled, patting his shoulder playfully before grabbing her coffee and heading back to their bedroom

haiden sat around a table with all the lads, they'd found a nice little outdoor restaurant to visit before making their way to whatever venue elijah had mentioned for their gig.
haidens legs overlapped onto eli's lap, his index finger tracing little patterns every now and again on her calf

"so you two have made up then?" rob asked, eyebrow raised at haiden

"it's a work in progress" she hummed "but i'll make him work for it" she laughed, eli shaking his head as the boys joined in

conversation sparked up between the four boys, haiden caught bobby's eyes from across the table while mouthing a 'thank you'
elijah leaned back in his chair, his leg stretched out while pulling his sunnies down over his eyes.

there was nothing more attractive to haiden than this man. she was convinced he was carved by the gods, there was no way a man as beautiful as this had any form of attraction towards haiden.
it wasn't that she was unattractive either, she knew she looked good. she just had a lot of baggage that she didn't want to pass on.

she'd never realise that all eli ever thought about was how he'd managed to have the girl of his dreams. he's spent years pining over her, the lads having to sit and listen to him ramble about her beauty and her brains.
there were often moments they were out as a band... eli would catch a glimpse of haiden and he was always too nervous to say anything.
the boys haven't let him live it down... that will be the first thing in their best man speech.

haiden was brought out of her daydream to her hands being encased by his, he leaned into her sighed as he whispered "i love you den, more than words can describe" before kissing the side of her head

she noticed her phone vibrating on the table, she picked it up but no caller id... no reason to answer it, nothing important eh?

"when does the gig start?"

"well it's quite an early one so we'll be there in an hour, yeah?"
