"Just say sorry," I laugh.

When Finn dropped me off, he insisted on coming in as we didn't talk much during the car journey. Ever since he got in, he's been rambling on about this 'Romeo & Juliet' thing.

I throw my bag onto the couch as soon as I get in and help myself to an apple from the fruit bowl on the small coffee table.

He sighs as he joins me on the couch, "I'm sorry,"

Smiling, I realise this is the way we solve all our problems. We just don't talk about them. Frankly, I don't care about the problems, all I want is a stress-free life and I think now I finally have one.

Finn gets his bag from the floor and pulls out one of his papers.

"Luckily, this one managed to stay in my bag," he says, waving it around.

I take a closer look and notice it's the Physics homework that I can't be bothered to do. However, I know I have no choice. I may as well give it a shot while no one's home to get in my way.

"Do we have to?" I whine, knowing that Finn won't give in anyway.

He imitates me with puppy dog eyes and a pout that I never do.

"Yes, I'm afraid so, princess,"

When he calls me that, I'm not sure if I should appreciate it or not. But I decide to be thankful. At least I'm someone's princess now.

I groan and sit up so I can reach over for my bag and take out the homework.

"Right," I sigh, "Where do we start?"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Only 10 minutes later and we've given up on the homework. Instead, Finn suggested we watch some crap on TV, which is his way of saying "make out during every break".

I giggle as the first break comes on and he slides himself over to me on the couch.

"You know what we should do?" he smirks as he runs a finger down the side of my face and lightly tucks some hair behind my ear.

"Nope," I smirk back, "Why don't you show me?"

Everytime I make out with Finn, images of Luke always appear in my mind and I can't get them to go away. It sucks, I know, but there's nothing I can do about it. This time, I am determined to think about Finn and Finn only. I mean, what type of person thinks about a different boy while kissing their boyfriend? Sometimes I really do hate myself.

"I'd be glad to," he whispers.

Finn starts by drawing circles with his fingers on my tummy and then stroking up and down my leg with his other hand. I lie down with my head on the arm of the couch and let Finn get on with it. Soon, he stops drawing circles on my tummy and lifts his hand underneath my school jumper. I sigh, but quickly pull it off, before grabbing his hand and moving it down towards my other leg. With his face inches from mine, his eyes focused on my legs, I pull his chin up with two of my fingers so we're looking at each other.

I smile and can feel my eyes crinkle at the sides, before Finn leans his head forwards and kisses me. He smiles through the kiss as he moves his hands onto my school shirt, tugging at the buttons. When he eventually gets them all undone, I put my shoulders back in attempt to shake off my shirt. But Finn has different ideas.

He removes some of my shirt so that my shoulder is free. After tracing his fingertips along the back of my neck, he begins to suck on the bare skin from my shoulder.

As he does this, I lean my head back once more and snake my hands up and down his back, pushing his body down onto mine.

Suddenly, we hear a knock on the door and I begin to panic. Mum and Richard are supposed to be working late again. And Owen is away on a school trip. Don't they have keys anyway? I check that the curtains are shut, before kissing Finn one more time. He laughs and slowly gets his body off mine.

"I guess we can finish this later," he says, smirking for the billionth time.

"You wish," I say, quietly, shoving him down behind the couch.

Another knock comes from the door again, this time it's louder.

"I'm coming!" I shout from the hall, quickly doing up the final buttons on my shirt.

I rush to the front door and sigh when I see Ruby there, jumping up and down in excitement.

"Let me guess," I say, letting her inside, "Oscar?"

"You could say that," she says, making herself at home by heading straight into the living room and propping her feet up on the table.

I follow her into my house and sit on the couch opposite to her.

"Finn, you can leave now sweatheart," she says, smiling.

He coughs and stands up, slightly embarrassed that she knew he was there.

"I'll see you later, babe," he says to me, kissing me on the cheek as he leaves.

"Yeah, okay," I reply.

"Bye!"

Ruby waves him out and doesn't say a word until we hear the door shut.

"What happened?" I ask, leaning back and folding my arms, preparing for the same old story.

"Before I start, I just want you to know how much this means to me, okay?"

I nod as Ruby retrieves an envelope from her bag. I squint my eyes as I try to read the writing but it's such a small print, I can't see a thing.

"This is tense," I say, sarcastically.

She glares at me but carries on talking.

"Oscar said he was sorry about insulting 5SOS, so I basically told him that I don't give a fuck about what he thinks because I ended it with him, right?" she begins.

"Mhm," I say, hardly paying attention.

"But then he invited me over and being me, I gave in. When we got there, he told me how sorry he was and that he couldn't bare to lose me, you know what I mean? Anyway, he then literally got down on his knees and presented me with these," she says, looking both excited and hopeful as she hands me the envelope.

"And these are?" I ask, taking it from her.

"Just open the fucking thing," she orders.

I roll my eyes and do as she says. Inside the envelope are 2 tickets for something and a letter. I decide to take a look at the letter first.

"Congratulations?" I read the first word out loud.

"Read it for God's sake!!" Ruby groans.

"You are going to see One Direction," I say, still reading.

That's all it says on the big print. The rest is terms and conditions. I'm still confused as hell when I take the tickets out and realise they are concert tickets to see One Direction.

Why would Oscar get Ruby tickets to see One Direction after they had a fight over 5SOS??

I look back over at Ruby, a confused expression on my face. She sighs and grabs the envelope from me. Frustratedly, she picks up the letter and points to the small print, which I can't see very well.

And then it hits me. 5 Seconds of Summer are opening for One Direction. They'll be coming to London in 2 months. Oscar got Ruby 2 tickets to see 5SOS.

After that, it doesn't take me long to find out who she's planning on taking with her.
