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

Chapter 26-Kisses Tour Buses and Dresses

Calum's POV

I woke up in the morning with a start. I was surprised at first to find that Heather wasn't there but then the memories of last night flooded back in. She was gone, she wasn't mine anymore, I had to make it right before I left for the whole year. Ugh, I'm going to miss her so much! Then I realised that she was probably going to work soon. I bolted downstairs to her apartment, in my pyjamas.

I knocked on the door, I was feeling quite hopeful. Heather answered the door, mascara was running down her cheeks and her hair was a mess, she still looked beautiful. My hope was beginning to slip away. Her face fell when she saw and tried to shut the door. I jammed my foot in the door. "Heather please I need to talk to you, We need to sort this out. I go on tour for a year in three hours. I can't leave you like this." I pleaded. I heard her sigh, then slowly the door opened. She gestured for me to come in. I walked in. "Heather look, I didn't mean wha I said, I got caught up in the fight and said the first thing in my mind!"
" I know Calum, I know. I don't really care anymore. But the fact that it actually crossed your mind hurts, okay? It hurts a lot."
"Heather I'm sorry, I don't know what else to say."
"Just go on tour Calum, be happy, forget about me!"
She opened the door for me to leave but I stayed still. "No Heather can't you see I miss you, I love you and I don't want to be apart from you for a second longer than I have you! I need you Heather!" As soon as I had said that her face looked puzzled, like she was trying to figure something out. Then suddenly she burst into tears and ran into my arms. I froze for a moment. I wrapped my arms around her and softly kissed her forehead. I felt like I was home, in Heathers arms I could stay there forever. When she finally pulled away we were left staring at each other.

"When do you leave for tour?"
"Um, couple of hours. Come with me, please Heather"
"I would love too Calum, seriously I really want too but I can't, I'm still filming and my career has just kicked off, I'm sorry,"
"I understand, it was stupid of me to ask. Promise me one thing?"
"Anything,"
"Stay away from Liam, please, and if he causes you any hassle, any whatsoever. I will march back here and smack the shit out of him. I don't care if I'm halfway across the world. One phone call and I will be right here!"
"I know, um, so, are we still together or um not?"
" Heather Scott, it would give me the greatest pleasure, if you took another chance on the fool that I am, to try a long distance relationship with me?"
"Calum Hood, it would be my honour" she said whilst curtsying to me. I laughed then pulled her into my arms. I took her face in my hands. Slowly and gently, I leaned in and kissed her. Fireworks were set off as soon as she touched me, right now no one could annoy. Not even cocky Liam Hemsworth, who I fucking hate. The kiss lasted forever and when we finally pulled apart for stupid air, i looked into her eyes and nothing, no one was going to get her away from me.

We spent the next few hours watching movies, just trying to make the most of each other. Then it was time for me to go. Once we were outside and the tour bus was there o felt sick. I could see the other boys through the tinted windows. They were making kissing  faces at me and Heather, I rolled my eyes at them and span round to face Heather. Tears were already lightly falling down her soft cheeks. I've seen her cry too much lately. "Look at me, it's going to be okay, we can FaceTime every day, call me every night promise? I love you sssoooo much Heather!" I kiss her nose lightly which made her giggle. "FaceTime isn't the same as being with someone Calum, we'll make it work, I know we will, we always make it work!" As soon as she said that they were yelling at me to get on the bus. I kissed Heather hungrily. She pulled away. "Go now," she laughed, "I'll call you okay? Don't miss me too much!" I laughed at her modesty and walked towards the bus. Once I was on I took a seat by the window so I could wave to her. Then we started moving, I blew her a kiss, she laughed and 'caught' it. I waved intil she was a spot in the distance. Then I finally turned around to my band mates and I realised that tears were uncontrollably  streaming down my face. God, I'm going to miss my girl.

Heather's POV

It has been a couple of hours since Calum left, I'm trying to stay happy. Emma and Dylan were here and I was telling them everything. Emma was crying too. I laughed at her, she smiled and pulled me in for a hug. She jumped up onto her feet. "Okay, the premier is tomorrow night and I still don't have a dress to wear! We, my friend are going shopping!" She said whilst pulling me to my feet. I got all my things ready, we shouted bye to Dylan and got a taxi into central London. It was mobbed but we found a little boutique that was really quit and started looking in there. Emma was trying all different kinds of dresses on, they were all nice but that's not what Emma thought. It went like this: too puffy, too tight, too short, too long, too showy, blah blah blah. Finally she found a dark blue shade, her favourite colour she went to try it on. When she came out it was beautiful. I went down to her ankles, it had a thin black belt on her waist, with long lace sleeves and it was perfect for her. She looked beautiful. I jumped up, "THATS THE ONE!"
"I KNOW RIGHT!"
We both screamed for a while, making people stare at us.

Once we had bought the dress with a pair of tall black heels, Emma was quite small, and a black clutch to match we went down to Starbucks. We were sitting at the table talking about Calum and Dylan. "How long have you and Dylan been out for?" I asked, "Dunno, about a year?" She replied checking her watch. "Shoot, I got to go Heather, we have  thing on at set, I'll see you later okay? Oh and will you help me get ready tomorrow?" She frantically asked. "Of course, I'll see you later!" I waved as she dashed out of Starbucks. I wandered along the small path home. Once I was home and in bed I called Calum. I don't know how long we talked but it seemed like hours. I could hear his cute little snoars on the other end of the phone. I smiled at his cuteness and hung up. I putted my phone on the bed side table and fell asleep. The little smile still on my face.
