Chapter 5

*shelbys POV*
We all piled into a limo that management had sent for the guys. I said beside Matt and Taylor with Hayes across from me. "Hey Shelby" Matt screamed in my ear. "Ow what do u want? I'm right here" I said laughing. "Let's take a selfie" he said, only a little quieter than last time.
He got his phone out and stretched his arm out in front of him. I leaned my head on his shoulder and stuck my tongue out and he did duck lips with his eyes closed. He snapped the picture and we bursted out laughing at how dumb we looked. Then Taylor started fake crying. "Why don't I get a cute selfie with Shelby?" He whined. I giggled, "Ok Tay, get your phone out." He did and I kissed his cheek while he scrunched his face up a little a did a side smirk kind of thing. He posted the picture on twitter:

@taylorcaniff:
Fancy dinnner with this cutie xx

He tagged me in the photo. I looked at him at smiled and we held the gaze for a while.
"Taylor" Jack said "why don't you come sit over here?" Taylor turned red and got up to sit by the jacks.  I turned to jack with a questioning look on my face and he just shook his head.

We finally got to the restaurant and it was a very nice Italian cuisine.  Management has reserved seats for us and of course mine was beside Hayes.  We sat down and I caught him staring at me.
"What do you want?" I asked him.
"You" he said quietly.
I turned my head away because I was not in the mood for this right now.  I saw Nash shoot a look at Hayes but he just shrugged it off.
After our managers sat down the announced that all of the boys would be going on tour in 3 weeks.  They all started cheering but I just sat there awkwardly.  I wasn't officially apart of this management group, I just came with Jack to a lot of shows and stuff. 
"Wait" Aaron said "what about Shelby?"
"Well she's allowed to come too. In fact we want to sign her." Management said and everyone started cheering.

I smiled and thanked them.  I was super excited because recently I had been in some of Jack and Jacks vines and they were helping me trying to start a career so I guess it was working.  We finished details for the tour and then payed for our food and drove back to the house.  

I was exhausted after the long day we had so I decided to take a long hot shower.  I started playing music and hummed along, letting the hot water run down my back.  Once I got out, I towel dried my hair and put on one of Jacks big t-shirts and nike pros.  I brushed my teeth and did everything else I needed to do to get ready for bed.  I was just getting ready to lay down when there was a knock at my door.

*Hayes' POV*

I really needed to talk to Shelby and fix things.  I decided to wait until I knew all the other boys were sleeping.  I walked over to her door and knocked, and she open it with a smile.  Until she saw it was me.  Her face instantly turned into a frown. 

"What do you want?" She asked before continuing, "If you say you want me then I will literally slap you."

"Look Shelby" I began "I don't know how many times I have to apologize for the truth or dare thing, or the kiss, but I'm not apologizing for what Cameron told you."

"Oh yeah?" Why not. " She said, looking a little hurt. 

"Because none of it is true.  I was actually going to surprise the others to tell them that I am officially moving in.  I'm living here with you.  Also, there is no girl from North Carolina.  That was all a lie-"

She cut me off by saying, "Yeah I already know but this is too much.  I don't like drama and that's all you've brought to me."

"Wow.   You don't even know me.  All you know is that I've made a complete fool of myself in front of you.  You know why?  Because I am crazy about you.  Yeah sure we've only really known each other for less than a month but I really like you.  Not that you would care.  So I'll leave you alone, in fact I'm leaving in the morning to go home.  I only wanted to live here so I could be near you.  I don't want to live here knowing you'll never give me a chance.  So goodbye Shelby." And I started walking out of the door.  

"Wait Hayes come back!" She said, following me "I-uh didn't know you felt that way.  Please stay."

"It's too late.  I've already made up my mind."  I said walking away. 

We were outside of my room now.  "Hayes please let me explain some things to you." She begged.  

"Look I'm sorry, I'll see you on tour.  Maybe we can talk then.  I just can't right now.  Goodbye" I started to walk into my room and just as I heard the door shut I'm pretty sure I heard her say "I'm crazy about you too" but I didn't wan to know so I just packed my stuff up and went to bed.

*Next Morning*

"You ready Nash?" I asked him, rushing him because I wanted to leave before Shelby woke up.  I had already explained to the others why I was leaving.  

"yeah almost!" He yelled back.

I was downstairs on the couch waiting for Nash to drive me to the airport.  I needed a break before tour and being with Shelby but not really "with" her would only make it worse.  I heard someone walk down the stairs so assuming it was Nash, I jumped up and turned around.  Only to find out it was Shelby.

"Wait you were serious about leaving?" She asked, her voice barely above a whisper.  Just then Gilinsky came into the room and said, "I'm sorry man, I tried to distract her so you could go"

"Yeah I'm really leaving" I said blatantly to Shelby.

"But didn't you hear what I said last night?" She asked, her voice still quite.

"I did, but it's too late, I'm going" I replied.  She just looked down at her feet and didn't say anything.  Then Taylor and Matt came running down the stairs.

"Hey is Shelby awake yet?  Because we were going to try and-" Matt stopped screaming when he saw what was happening.  Nash followed them down the steps, and eventually everyone was in the living room awkwardly staring at each other.  

Taylor came up and wrapped his arms around Shelby and when she looked up I could see tears in her eyes.  I didn't understand what the big deal was, she didn't like me anyways.  I rolled my eyes and walked out the door with my suitcase and got in the car.  Nash followed me after talking to the guys.  He got in the drivers seat and said "You're a jerk you know?" I nodded and he drove to the airport.  It was silent the whole way.  

The announcer lady called my flight and me and Nash stood up.  "Look I'm sorry about earlier.  But really, get your act together before tour.  If she finds someone else in these next three weeks and you show up to the tour acting like a jerk, I won't help you.  If you change, I've already got a plan.  It's up to you though." Nash said.  Then he hugged me and pushed me along to the lady who checked my ticket.  I never said a word.  He said good-bye and walked away.  I sat on the plane and just stared ahead.  The only thing I could think of was her; How Taylor comforted her while I was a jerk; and if I had just made a really big mistake...
