Paige's POV
After Michael put on his shirt, I sighed. I ran downstairs, Michael chasing after me. Taunting to push me down. I ran out the door and sprinted across the street to his car. After he got there we got into his minivan.

" I like the style." I mocked him, his face turning an infuriating red.

" WHY DOES EVERYONE THINK ITS MINE!" He shouted.

" shut up and drive. " I laughed.

"so where are your parents anyways?", Michael took his eyes of the road for a split second.

" My dad forgot some work things so he had to go back to Cali and I guess my mom wanted to go there one last time."

We drove to The Grove one and a half hours away. Apparently it has the "best pizza". I doubt it. I was quite, for a while despite what time it was. I glanced over at Michael occasionally. His eyes steadily tracing the roads every mark. I relaxed almost asleep, confident about his driving ability.

"We're here!" I woke up instantly.
I got out of the car and someone grabbed me from behind, this person giggled furiously. Dammit Ashton!

" Why are you here?" , I turned around. "And you and you!"

" we just came for pizza love." Calum retorted.

I walked inside, I kinda wanted this dinner to be me and Michael thing. I just realized that was selfish. Crap I was so rude to the people who wanted to be my friends from the start.

" you guys want to sit with us." I muttered.

"Sure!" The three yelled in unison.

We sat down, Luke to the right of me Michael to the left and Ashton and Calum across from us. They ordered, and I just sat there thinking. Why can't I sleep right now? And then all at once questions. " who's your favorite soccer team, favorite pizza, do you like bands, do you like rock bands, do you play the guitar, drums, what about the bass, do you like punk rock bands?"

" I should just date you all shouldn't I !"  I muttered, " then I won't have to answer all these stupid questions."

"Awe come on we just want to know you." Ashton soothed.

I stayed quite, and waited for the pizza. When the pizza arrived I ate it like no tomorrow. This pizza was THE best. Michael wasn't lying. After the boys finished, they all put money on the table and agreed to go. I got up walking as fast I could towards the car.

"Night" I yelled.

On the way home I fell asleep. I mean we had like 1.5 hours to go, why not get some rest. I laid my head on the seatbelt, slowly dozing of into sleep. Many cars headlights passing us by.
