hard choices // l.h

the game ended when we all passed out after laughing so hard about the 'make-out sesh,' as michael calls it, that me and calum had. i insisted it was just one kiss that didnt mean one thing. which it was, wasnt it..?

yes duh of course it was. you love luke. luke loves you. ashton was talking shit when he said calum liked me. total bull shit. why would calum even like me? never mind. i dont want to think too much into it.

the next morning i woke up with luke by myside, snoring like a little piglet. it was adorable. after i snickered at my boyfriends face i got up. then i felt the bus stop as if we parked somewhere. we arrived at our next stop in sydney. i forgot where but someplace in sydney.

ashton and calum were awake and were getting packed up to get into the venue for the concert tonight. after i ate a muffin, i helped them pack up then i packed my own things i needed then got ready. i threw on a black t-shirt and black skinny jeans, then my black converse. i threw on my badge thing then once i finished getting ready luke and michael were awake with coffee in their hands.

luke gave me a warm smile then kissed my forhead. "you look adorable in black." he smirked sleepily and made me blush by his sweet words. "morning e." michael said cheerfully. "morning mikey." i greeted back with a smile. "hey how come your not with your new boyfriend calum?" michael smirked thinking he was funny. i rolled my eyes then punched him slightly.

"shut up." i spoke through gritted teeth as my face reddened and a smile crept upon my face. luke just laughed then hugged me tighter.

"cmon boys, we gotta get to our dressing room." ashton said with a hint of excitment in his cheerful voice. once we, altogether, walked out of the massive bus, screams were held behind a fence where about 60 fans were held. they were the die hards.

"jesus." i breathed as i put on lukes sunglasses. "what. that? thats not compared to what we've seen in the past evelyn." ashton chuckled. "i know but did they literally wait here just to see maybe a minute of you guys?"

"apparently." luke said laughing. i chuckled  then we approched the doors to the venue. at that moment i actually forgot about calum. i quickly glanced over at him but his head was down then he entered the venue. no words at all. not even when he woke up. not to anyone. luke opened the door for me then i gladly accepted and stepped inside.

the guys were shown to their dressing rooms and i helped them get situated. "luke?" i asked luke as i came up to him. "yeah love whats up." luke asked as he  picked out what to wear without looking at me. "is.. is um, calum okay?" i asked quietly then i glanced toward him as he rummaged through what to wear as well.

luke looked up at me then looked at calum for a moment. "yeah i think so, why?" "nothing its just.. he hasnt spoken a word since last night after.. ya know." i chuckled awkwardly. luke returned the action then looked at me. "i bet hes fine ev. dont worry about him. he has to focus anyways. if you really want, ill talk to him?" luke offered as he finally chose a shirt to wear.

i smiled brightly. "thank you lucas. you're the best you know that?" i said as i kissed him. he hummed then smiled at me. "thank you." i nodded then started to walk away. "hey evelyn?" i spun around then he held up his outfit. "match?" he asked with a twisted expression on his scruffy face. i laughed then nodded.

i spun back around then started to walk out of the dressing room. "good luck guys. i wont see you before you go on so im giving you my luck now." i chuckled. "thanks ev." michael said. "yeah thanks e." ashton then spoke. luke blew her a kiss then she returned the favor and looked at calum. he looked back with a deep sadness in his eyes. then he flashed me a slight smile then he went back to warming up. i smiled at him weakly then walked out. what was wrong with him? was he okay? he was doing fine last night?

"Evelyn, we need you on stage. they crew has a question for you." one of the managers said as they stopped me in the hall. "sure okay." i said with a smile that quickly faded.

after the concert, the crew needed my help once again because someone that was part of the crew got sick so i had to help take shit down. which i didnt really wanna do. because i was just really tired and i wanted to cuddle with my boyfriend and watch netflix or something on his laptop. not stay later than usual and help bring humongo speakers out to big trucks.

luke called me after the concert. "hey baby where are you?" "im sorry luke, one of your crew members got sick so i had to replace them. im not gonna be on the bus for a little bit." luke groaned loudly in the phone then said 'okay.' "im sorry luke. ill be there in a bit. get netflix set up and ill be in your bunk with you in no time alright?" "okay ev." "okay bubye hun."

i hung up then i turned around to get back to work but instead there was calum in front of me. "oh hi calum. you guys played really-" but before i couls finish my sentence, calum smashed his lips to mine. my emotions were blowing up in my head and my heart. i almost was about to burst into flames and abliterate but calum took his face off of mine.

i stared deep into his lustfull brown eyes as they sared back into mine. i was about to speak but calum stopped me. "dont say anything." he whispered as he grabbed my face again and kissed me gently multiple times. this was too much for me.

we slowly pulled away then i herd my name being called.
