How Did We End Up Here?//Dylan O'Brien + Calum Hood

Chapter 12- Halloween Part 2

Dylan's POV

After a whole load of persuasion, Calum managed to get me out of bed and into a costume for the party. I may sound like and absolute dick but I'm just not feeling up to anything just now. I don't know what to feel with this whole Emma and Britt thing. What doesn't help is Calum having a "girlfriend" now leaving me the only single one.

I plodded through to the lounge to see Calum and his band mates Luke, Michael and Ashton trying to work a speaker.
"No!" Luke groaned as he attempted to switch it on and failed.
"Shut up Luke! My way was better! Leave it to me!" Michael stated proudly before failing again.
"I'm the oldest so let's see if I can use my knowledge to switch this thing on..." Ashton sighed before the sound system failed again.
"Uh guys.." I muttered, walking closer to them. "There's an on switch at the side." They all stared at me for a while in confusion before checking the side of the speaker where a big on switch was positioned.
"For fucks sake!" Michael exclaimed, pressing the large button. All of a sudden the room filled with music.

"Thanks mate!" Calum chuckled patting my shoulder lightly. I grinned at him before laying out some food on the table.

It wasn't long until the room was completely ready. To be honest Calum basically did it all, I just helped switch on a speaker and put some food out.
All of a sudden the doorbell rang signalling that the first guests were here.

Luke and Ashton raced to the door. After a loud conversation in the doorway they came back through with Perrie and Jade from Little Mix. Ashton had his fingers intertwined with Jade's I winked discreetly at Ashton assuming they were a couple now after all of the speculation and stuff.

"Hey guys!" I smiled hugging them both. "I'm Dylan!" I chirped, trying to sound as happy as possible.

"Hey!" Perrie called over the music. "I'm Perrie and this is Jade!" She gestured to Jade who was stuffing some food into her mouth.

"Hi!" Her voice was muffled by the amount of food she had stuffed into that tiny space. Both of the girls let out high pitched giggles before walking off to go and check out the flat.

After about half an hour the room was packed with people. As I squeezed through them I caught the eye of Emma, the person who I've been dreading to speak to. She tried to get me to come over but I simply ignored her. I couldn't go through the bowling night story again.

Emma's POV

I banged on the door of Calum and Dylan's flat loudly, praying that somebody would hear it. To my relief the door swung open almost immediately. It revealed Calum in a Luigi (Mario and Luigi) costume, Heather let out a small giggle.
"Hey guys!" He smiled, pulling us both in for a little group hug. "It's pretty packed in here but there's food on the table and alcohol in the cupboard. Help yourself!" He chuckled opening the door wide enough so we could both squeeze in. There was literally no room, Calum was right the place was packed.  I tried to push my way through some of the sweaty drunk bodies, in search of someone who I knew. Heather was already gone, probably with Calum. I sighed loudly, standing up on my tippy toes to look again.

"Are you alright?" A deep voice appeared from nowhere. I turned on my heels trying to identify where the voice came from. "You look lost." He spoke with an Australian accent, like Calum. Finally I laid eyes on him...no it wasn't... It couldn't be...It was....oh shit it was... Staring down at me with ocean blue eyes was Luke Hemmings...yes Luke Hemmings asking me if I was lost. He was wearing a Mario costume to match Calum's Luigi. I smiled brightly at him.

"Yeah I can't find my friend and I don't know anyone else here!" I laughed, checking him out discreetly. I know I was in love with Dylan but this was Luke Hemmings... Who doesn't want to check him out!

"I'll be your friend for the night!" He smiled, giving me a cute little thumbs up. He was so adorable, like a little kid.

"Thank you! I'm Emma!" I laughed, shaking his hand.

"I'm Luke...Luke Hemmings." He shouted. I was struggling to hear stuff over the music.

Luke and I chatted for a while. He was so down to earth, he reminded me of one of my ex boyfriends...before he went psycho! I'd been having quite a lot to drink so I wasn't really thinking straight. Suddenly a slightly tipsy Luke took a hold of my hand. "It's quieter over here." His words slurred as he spoke. I followed him over to the corner of the room, he stopped abruptly causing me to topple over on to his chest. We both burst out laughing. The drink was really taking its toll.

We talked again for longer, probably about absolute shit seeing as we were both drunk until we had a moment. His eyes met mine, a small smirk tugging on his lips. A feeling of lust swept over me as he edged closer towards me. I didn't realise what I was doing until our lips connected. Instead of regretting it I kissed him back, pulling gently on his soft blonde hair. We carried on like this for a while until a loud curse startled us both.

Heather's POV

Calum and I were standing talking at the edge of the room. Some could say we were having one of those romantic moments but I can't really remember. We were talking about shit like the tv and who deserves to go through on strictly come dancing. Mindlessly I glanced over to the corner of the room. To my shock I saw Emma kissing another guy. Wait....it was Luke...Luke Hemmings.

"Uh Calum." I tapped his shoulder lightly.

"What?" He whispered in my ear sending chills down my spine.

"Um look at the two lovebirds over there..." I pointed awkwardly at Luke and Emma.

"No no no. Shit that's not supposed to happen!" He shouted, rushing over to Dylan. I grabbed his hand quickly and followed him across the busy room.

I burst into a giggle fit as he desperately tried to distract him from what was going on in the corner. Unfortunately Calum's efforts weren't enough and Dylan caught the two kissing.

"ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS?!!" Dylan screamed loudly before stomping off to his room. This wasn't how it was supposed to go. "YOUR DECISION EMMA...HIM OR ME!!" He shouted before slamming the door shut. It was all down to Emma now...
