When Piper's tears finally dried out her and Calum still sat there holding onto each other. None of them knew why, but something made them not want to let go. "I'm so sorry." Calum suddenly whispered making Piper push a little away from him, to look at him. The look on her face was confused, because she had no idea why he was apologizing to her.

She should be apologizing, she had been crying and even accusing him of lying. Even though only in her head, she hadn't trusted him, and that was nothing new to her. Just that this time, she was wrong about not trusting him. Maybe she had even lost his trust, so she should be apologizing and not Calum.

"For what?" She questioned, not understanding it at all. Calum smiled slightly seeing the confused look on her face.

"For you having to go through all of that." He told her, he really meant it. It made him feel terrible that she had to go through so much terrible for no particular reason, she was a beautiful girl with a beautiful personality. Even if she had done some bad stuff, it made sense if no one had ever treated her the way she deserved. Why should she give them respect if they didn't give it to her?

Calum always tried to do that, but that was because most people actually did treat him with respect. He had the strenght to treat those who didn't with respect because of that, because people were nice and honest to him. They hadn't been to Piper, that made him understand why she hadn't treated them nicely back.

"You don't need to apologize, you haven't done anything." Piper muttered into his shirt while still holding onto him. He was leaning his head on top of hers and she was sitting between his legs while they were holding onto each other. To Piper it made no sense that he was apologizing when he had done nothing wrong. Those who did do something didn't even apologize, so then why was he? That was weird.

"I made you cry." He said, feeling that one sting in his heart. He was the reason she had begun to cry, and it made him feel absolutely terrible. Piper almost cried when she heard him say that, the way his voice cracked slightly made her feel terrible. He thought it was his fault, but it was not.

"No, they made me cry." She told him but he didn't fully believe her. He felt like he was the reason she had begun to cry and it made him feel so bad inside. He had never been the reason someone had cried before, not in that way. Yes fans had cried when he met them, but he knew that was of happiness. When Piper cried it wasn't and no matter what she told him, he couldn't help but think he was the reason for it.

"I'm still sorry." He told her thinking that he should probably let her go so they could get out of the bathroom, but he really did not want to. To hold her like that felt so good, even better than after they had splashed each other wet earlier that day, because now she was hugging him back. Sitting up across his chest with her arms wrapped around him.

The silence fell upon them again, until someone knocked on the bathroom door being to impatient to wait for them to finish up. It wasn't that weird, since the three boys outside really had no idea what was happening inside. None of them had stood listening through the door, even though they had really been wanting to do so.

"Are you guys okay in there? Do you need protection?" The voice outside said making Calum roll his eyes while Piper just laughed slightly finding the difference but similarity between the two questions funny.

"Hello Michael." Calum just answer back, unwillingly letting go of Piper to get up. It was a good idea to get out, honestly they could have picked a better place than the bathroom to sit for an hour. Though none of them had had anything against it, they had liked it there, because they were together.

Both got up unlocking the door to see all three of the boys standing right outside, leaving very little space for them to get out on. Piper was the first one, squeezing past them and out to the bedroom area. Then all the three boys moved out there as well, making space for Calum. That made Piper laugh slightly, they made her struggle to get out but moved from him like some sort of force.
