Calum's POV

I drove to Luke's house so that we could all take a car together. I knock on his door and my heart somewhat flutters. Stop it! I scold it. Luke opens the door with a bright smile and I, for the first time, smile back at him. GOODNESS I TOLD YOU TO STOP! He seems shocked but still lets me inside. "Finally! Gosh." Ashton says, getting up.

"Hey!" I say. "Shut up." I frown and go down to the basement to get my bass.

"You know they have that stuff there, right?" Luke says.

"Yeah." I say. "I just like my bass." They shrug and we go outside into Luke's car. I put my bass down gently in the trunk and hop in the front seat.

"Hey!" Michael yells. I smile at him, innocently.

"Yes?" I ask.

"I called Shotgun already!" He says to me.

"Well too bad because I'm already here." I say and seatbelt.

"Fine but I'm getting the front seat next time." Michael huffs.

We arrived at the pizza place and went inside. "Ah! And our special guests have arrived. Please, everyone welcome - Five Seconds of Summer!" The MC, which is also the owner, announces. Everyone turns to face us and they clap. We smile and get onto the stage. "What kinda pizza would you like after?" He whispers to us. We have already decided this is the car, so we all say it in unison.

"Pepperoni." He nods and leaves the stage all to us. We start to set up and once we do, we start off by playing the few songs we have written: Heartbreak Girl; Try Hard; and Voodoo Doll. The crowd cheers and screams, while some of them are actually video taping. After that, the owner comes out with a large pepperoni pizza.

"It's hot! Be careful, and great job up there guys." He praised us. I sat across from Luke and I couldn't help but stare. DAMMIT! I forced myself to look away and look down onto the pizza in front of us. We all started to dig in.

Luke's POV

I sat across from Calum, while he was eating pizza, I was just staring at him. I couldn't help it. I mean, I stared at his selfie I found on Instagram everyday after he leaves our chat. I sigh and then look away. Luke, you know he will never love you back. I sigh once more and continue eating.
