plot twist

thirty-four.

➼ jade

'true life: another day, another meeting the life of a celebrity,' though i never really put myself with the title.

i was sitting at a table, in a small cafe, with eleanor waiting for calum and becca to show up, it was finally time for the meeting of the year. i hated that i had to come to terms with calum and i breaking up, i didnt want to but this was my job and i didn't really have any other choice.

"where are they?" annoyance laced in my voice, "its been two hours."

laughing at my comment, el replies, "we've actually only been here for thirty minutes, and they should be here any minute, photoshoot."

nodding, i look down at my phone sending a quick text to the boys.

jade: ...but if calum takes any longer, i'm going to punch him in the face
michael: have eleanor record, pretty please?
luke: i regret not going now
jade: u butts
calum: you're one to talk
ashton: says the one who wants to punch him
calum: we just got here, see u very soon baby
michael: ;-)
ashton: :o oooooo!

just as i see the text from the guys, i hear a laugh that can't be missed, calum. "there y'all are."

"i'm sorry, you know la traffic," becca wraps an arm around my shoulders.

"plus being late to our meetings is kind of our thing," calum jokes, sending a wink my way.

i give calum a quick hug and motion towards his seat, "now that they're hear, can we get to business?"

"i thought i could at least get a drink or something," calum pounts, looking amongst us girls. "then we can get right to it."

rolling my eyes, i reply, "fine, hurry up and get someone's attention."

once calum finally gets his sweet tea, he lifts his hand from its once position, cupping the drink, and looks to becca and el. "well you ladies may start."

"thank you sir. well becca and i were talking the other night when you guys went over to jade's and we figured out something's," eleanor said, looking over towards becca.

"first, we think you two should stay together for maybe another two months, just so you don't have to explain to people what happened any time soon," becca says, looking between cal and i. "secondly, we want jade to visit you guys when you're on tour, haven't picked a city but when we do we'll let you two know."

"is that it or?" i question our managers, it seemed too good to be true. there had to be some bad new, everything was going our way.

sighing eleanor had the look of sadness on her face. there was something they were hiding from us, and it was killing me to know.

"what?"

"well, sterling sat down with me and he wants the breakup to be bad," eleanor began, staring at her drink. "he think if your breakup goes bad, idea is calum cheats and you're so heart broken, that will get people to talk and sales for their album and the movie rockets. i told him i'd talk to becca and she said we should talk to you guys."

the table fell silent, calum looked at me, as my eyes were fixed on the salt and pepper shakers. there was no way i liked their idea, no way someone cheating will help with sales.

before i could speak, calum sits up in his seat and lays a few words on the girls. "i refuse to let either one of us cheat on the other, so tell sterling to fuck off with that idea. i want us to just have a falling off, both pretty beat up by what happened, jade do you agree?"

nodding my head, i decide to speak, "i think since we won't be breaking up due to cheating, we date for another three months and i should go visit on the second month while their own tour and end things because distance."

agreeing, becca says, "you guys are better at this than sterling el and i combined." earning a laughing from the table.

"now we just have to tell the boys."
