Nice To Meet You Again || Calum Hood

Jess

I freeze at the mention of my channel. Rylie, I hate you.

"You have a YouTube channel?" Ashton asks.

"Yep.. It's not that special or anything. Kinda boring." I answer quietly. I stare at the ground.

"100,000 subs, not that special?" I look up at Calum for a second to see a smirk on his face. I hear the sound of guitar playing the beginning of Say Something and my voice fills the room. It's silent until I answer Calum.

"Uh no.. It isn't." I feel blood rush to my cheeks. I see a figure lean in close to me and I look into his eyes. Calum. He tucks a random strand of hair behind my ear. He quickly looks away and leans back, realizing what he did.

"Sorry." He mumbles.

"It's alright." I say quietly. I feel everyone's eyes on us.

"Just kiss already, won't ya." Michael says. Calum chuckles.

"Mikey.." He starts. I lean in foward and cup Calum's face. I lean in until our lips touch. My eyes close and my arms wrap around his neck. This feeling is.. Familiar.. And good. He pulls away and bites his lip. We stare into each other's eyes and he lets out a soft chuckle.

"Um.. Well. There ya go." I chuckle leaning back into my seat.

"Woo!" Rylie claps, everyone follows along. Calum and I stare at eachother and blush.

"So what does that make you two?" Luke asks.

"Uhhh... Jess?" Calum looks at me.

"I don't know.. A couple? I have no idea." I shrug.

"Why not?" Ashton asks.

"Okay, why not?" I smile widely. "But I did just remember/meet you like a couple days ago.." I point to Calum.

"Well, you're remembering things." He grins. Rylie stands up.

"Calum, switch spots." She says.

"Why?"

"Because I'm letting you sit by my Jess."

"I'm not letting you sit by my Luke." Calum hugs Luke defensively. I see Luke shoot Calum a death stare and he remembers what Rylie is trying to do. "Actually, I hate you." He pushes Luke away. "I'm sitting by this lovely Jessica." He comes to sit by me and wraps his arm around my shoulder. I snuggle up to him.

"Well, Ash and I are gonna get some food and leave you guys alone, right Ashton?" Michael nudges him.

"Uh yep." Ashton nods and they get up.

"Make a run for it!" Luke chuckles. Michael waves him off and runs out the door with Ashton right behind him.

"We're gonna go to the bunks. Don't worry, seperate ones. But we'll leave you guys alone." Luke takes Rylie's hand and closes the sliding door.

"Well.."

"So.."

"Let's do something." Calum says.
