A/n: HIS HANDS ARE SO PRETTY OML. Okay, carry on.
......

A week later I was walking around at the mall, just browsing to decide what to get Ashton for his birthday next month. I always liked to plan ahead. I saw a few singlets and tee shirts that he'd like, maybe a button down or two, but nothing really stood out to me.

     As I was walking, someone ran up behind me, practically jumping on me.

"Lukey!" It was Kayla.

"H-hi." I stuttered, her surprising me made my anxiety levels increase.

"You should come hang out with me and my friends. Tiff will love you, and I might be able to set you up with Vonnie if you like." She chirped. "Oh and Calum will be there of course so you can talk."

"Um, I-I don't-t swing th-that way." I said awkwardly.

"Oh! I'm so sorry-I mean I just assumed-God fuck I'm sorry. I totally accept you! Calum's bi so I mean I have nothing against you-" I interrupted her.

"I know he's bi and it's fine, Kay, you didn't know."

"Okay how do you know Calum's bi? You seem like you despise each other. He wouldn't just tell anyone."

"Well I mean I would think I know someone's bi when I was the one who helped them realise that they are and dated them for seven years, staying with them even when they fuck up big time." I huffed, standing up and stomping off.

     Kayla did nothing wrong. It was talking about douchedick that pissed me off. I ran a hand through my hair, not caring that I was messing it up. I was about to just leave the mall, done with being around people at the moment when a meek voice spoke behind me.

"Aren't you Luke Hemmings?" I turned to see a pretty blonde girl and a shorter ginger girl beside her.

"O-oh yeah." I said.

"Oh my god we love your music! You're such a good singer." The ginger exclaimed.

"Thanks, that means a lot." I smiled. "What are your names?"

"Oh, I'm Blair and this is Stephanie." The blonde said.

"Nice to meet you guys." I said.

"Um, would you mind taking a picture with us?" Blair asked.

"Of course!" I smiled. No one had ever wanted a picture with me before.

Both girls pull out their phones and I take a selfie with both of them, which they post to both Instagram and Twitter and I think I saw Stephanie open Tumblr but I wasn't sure.

"Hey, what are your Twitter names?" I asked, getting my phone out and opening Twitter.

"Oh, mines blair.nicole0907." Blair stated.

"Mine is stephanie.janexsammy." Stephanie smiled, looking up from her phone.

I quickly typed in their usernames and followed them both. They thanked me and gave me hugs before hurrying off saying Blair's sister was there to pick them up. I was suddenly extremely happy. I had fans. That's incredible. I was internally freaking out but was calm and collected on the outside. I felt someone tap my shoulder and turned to see familiar blue hair.

"Hey, Luke." Kayla greeted.

"Hey, Kayla." I responded.

"I'm sorry if I made you mad before. I really didn't mean to." She apologised.

"No need to apologise. You didn't do anything wrong. It's just-Calum's a difficult subject for me. He made a lot of mistakes and did a lot of things that hurt me badly. It's hard to talk about for me. Just please take my advice and keep an eye on him and be careful. He's not as nice as he seems." I sighed.

"Thanks, Luke." She said.

It was silent for a while between us until she spoke again.

"I saw what happened with those two girls. That was really sweet of you. But I've seen your videos. That should be happening way more often." She stated.

My face heated up a little bit. "I don't know-"

"But I do. You're better than a majority of the people on the radio. Just be a little more confident. Arrange meet ups for your fans. Try putting out an EP. Try to get signed to a record label. You can do it, Luke, you're capable!" She exclaimed.

"You really think so?" I asked bashfully.

"Yes! Here." She grabbed a napkin from a nearby table and pulled a pen out of her pocket. She scribbled a number onto it and handed it to me. "That's my cousin Joey's number. He owns a pub where you can try to schedule a gig at. That's a start."

"Thanks, Kayla." I smiled, hugging her.

"No problem, Luke. Now go start getting yourself famous!" She shouted.

I giggled and bid her farewell before leaving the mall. Kayla was right. I could do this.
