Chapter 3
The luggage and instruments took so many place in the living room that I hardly found a way to get through the kitchen. I thought I should stick to my female role and I prepared some drinks and snacks for my unordinary guests. When I came back, they have been discussing the plan for the following days with my dad. Rehearsals, sound checks, meets and greets, their schedule was nearly full but they still were asking for more opportunities to meet their fans. "They are literally too lovely for words" I thought and put the drinks on the coffee table. They didn't even notice but I kept repeating in my head that if they did they would thank me. At least Ashton or Calum. I had no idea why Luke hated on me. Maybe he was just jet lagged and stressed about everything and he wasn't really into staying at some small house with obsessed teenage girl for the night. I glanced at him. His blonde hair was in an usual mess, he was wearing his favourite white smiley T-shirt and ripped jeans. He was smiling and laughing, making jokes with the other guys and what's the scariest- my father. I guess I was staring too long at him because he felt my sight on him. He looked at me with his deep blue eyes and immediately stopped smiling. I looked away and slowly turned back to go to my room and cry into my pillow because the guy I found so perfect literally hated me. Thanks to my dad, the torture needed to last longer:
-Olivia, sit with us please, we need to talk about how we gonna act in this house for next 24 hours.
-Act? What do you mean Dave?- since when Michael calls my dad with his name? At least he had a point in what he asked.
-Exactly, what do you mean?- I repeated Michaels question.
-Im responsible for you boys for the next two weeks. I need to make sure you won't do anything stupid so for tonight-no going out.
-Lovely- sighed Luke. What on earth was his problem? He was so not a guy I imagined he was. My dad ignored him.
-The next thing, since you will spend a night here we need to figure out who is gonna sleep where. I can sleep in my office in the basement. Ashton and Michael can take mine...-he stopped for a second- and my ex wife's bedroom. Luke and Calum, you can sleep in Olivia's bedroom.- "NO" I thought. Everything but not that.
-What about me?- my voice sounded so weak everyone looked at me in that moment. Even Luke.
-Oh. Right- my dad remembered that he has a daughter- you will sleep here on the sofa ok?- I agreed but I had no other choice. The thing I was most worried about was my bedroom.
-Excuse me- I smiled and rushed upstairs leaving boys with my dad in the living room. Not taking time to catch a breath, I started to rip off all the 5SOS' posters which covered my walls. "Whatever" I thought, putting them in a trash bin under my desk. With the experience I gained with cleaning up earlier I managed to tidy up my whole room in less than an hour. Exhausted, I lied on my bed and then I heart someone knocking on the door.
-Come in- I said not taking effort to get up. It was Calum, yes, Calum Hood in my bedroom. I couldn't hide a smile on my face because what happened in past 3 hours was literally unbelievable and I was still refusing to accept the fact it's all true.
-Nice one- his voice disturbed my thoughts- Would you mind going downstairs? Five mans in the kitchen trying to make something to eat is...- he didn't need to finish the sentence. I laughed and went with him downstairs.
-I just want to say that I can't really cook as well. I usually order Dominos or Chinese.- I said as we went to the kitchen.
-Well, Ashton is nearly throwing another crunchy nut party so we need anything different. And pizza sounds perfect.
Once we finished our truly American dinner- pizza with double cheese and diet coke- we all sat in the living room discussing plans for tomorrow. Ashton took his MacBook out of his bag and started updating all the fan base about what is 5SOS doing.
-Do you have a twitter?- he asked. I was just about to confirm but I remembered I've posted some really awkward edits lately and my tweets could turn out really embarrassing if he would read them.
-Not really, I don't use it.- I lied.
-Then we should make one for you! It's so much fun look!- next hour I spent with him taking over a twitter on his phone and doing a follow spree. At least that's what I could do for the rest of the girls in the family who couldn't sit next to Ashton Irwin on the sofa in their living rooms. It was around the midnight and boys decided to go to sleep. I admired them, they were still awake but I was sure jet lag was getting them. We said goodnight to each other and I took the stuff I needed downstairs. Leaving my bedroom I looked at Calum and Luke fighting over the blanket since they were supposed to sleep in one bed. I discreetly took a photo and went to the basement. My dad was still doing something on the laptop.
-The boys are great don't you think? Tomorrow I will take you to their rehearsals!- he said when he saw me.
-It's a dream come true dad.- I was telling the truth. My dream came true. I met 5SOS I will be at their rehearsals. But I still couldn't stop thinking about Luke. He was acting like they guy I knew from twitcams and interview when he was around the boys. But I really wanted him to like me. It's the thing that once you have something you only want more. "Damn girl" I thought "just think about what will the girls on twitter say. You have Calum, Ashton, Michael being super nice to you". I looked at the clock- 1:24 AM.
-Does Mum know you are in Cali?- I asked my dad. Maybe that was the reason she is late. She usually gets home much earlier.
-Yes. And I told her that boys are sleeping over your house tonight. She said that she will be back when I will leave with them.
-Where is she gonna stay for now then?
-At one of her friends place.. Well Olivia I'm sorry that you and your mum are not getting on well. But you were the one who wanted to stay with her in US.
-I know...
-But we will talk about it another day- we both didn't like the tough conversation so he saved us telling me goodnight and saying that tomorrow is going to be a huge day.
I went upstairs to the bathroom and then to the living room. Sofa was super uncomfortable but it wasn't what was I thinking about in that moment. Who would ever imagine that everything will happen so fast? This day was so perfect I didn't even want to go to sleep. But my human needs won and soon I fell asleep, peacefully wishing it all was true and won't disappear as soon as I wake up.
