Hopeless - The sequel to Breathless. A Janoskians fanfic.

24. "To the stars."

Skip's POV -

Isla looked flawless today, I couldn't believe she was my girlfriend, well, not officially my girlfriend, but I was planning on asking her later on. I wanted to make it special, show her that she was the only girl for me, forever. The last time I'd asked her to be my girlfriend I had planned a picnic with her favourite things and fairy lights everywhere, this time I had to top that. She opened the front doer, making sure to lock it behind us and skipped over, joyfully, to my car. "Hey gorgeous" she said as I approached her, I slid my hands round her waist and kissed her gently, I found it hard to keep my hands off her. I was besotted by Isla, I'd had girlfriends before, but none made me feel the way she did, I couldn't breath properly around her, she took my breath away entirely. I remembered the time we first spoke properly and she gave me her number, she was in yoga pants and a tight purple top, just finished in the gym. her long dark hair was tied up in a pony tail, cascading down her back and she smelt of perfume. Flowerbomb, the perfume she always wore, the perfume that reminded me of that day every time she sprayed it. I'd fallen in love with her right then and I'd been crazy about her ever since.

"Skip, baby..." Isla cooed, snapping me out of my day dream, "...the quicker we get going, the quicker we can leave and continue our shower." I bit my lip as I thought about the things we would get up to later. Her touch made me melt, she knew exactly what I liked, I knew what she liked and together we had amazing sex. "Mmm, that sounds perfect." I hugged her tightly once more and opened the car door for her, she lifted her skirt gracefully and climbed in, placing her sun glasses over her eyes. I shut the doer and walked around the front of the car, suddenly the horn beeped and I jumped a few metres, my heart beating twice as fast as usual. "I saw Isla leaning back over to her seat, crying with laughter as I put my face into the palm of my hands, laughing in embarrassment. I climbed in to the drivers seat and nudged her "You will pay for that!" I threatened her playfully and she continued to laugh. Driving with Isla meant singing along to Justin Bieber and Lil'Wayne, the windows rolled down completely and her loose bits of hair blew in the wind. "Nothing like us, nothing you and me.." we sang to each other, Isla was an amazing singer, as for me, I just screamed as loud as my lungs would let me.

Isla had a YouTube channel, like us Janoskians, where she'd uploaded a few videos of her singing. Jai had found it online one day and shed even sung at the bonfire, the bonfire where we'd fallen apart. I loved it when Isla would sing to me, her voice was soft and beautiful, it was one of the many things I loved about her. As we drove closer to Melbourne Central the roads were getting busy and some had been blocked off, we decided to park up and take the tram into the centre. "Hurry up!" Isla screamed as she ran to the platform which the tram was stationed at, I ran after her and stepped onto the tram, taking a seat next to her. Opposite me sat a lady in her forties and I recognised her immediately. The guys and I had filmed on the tram once, I had the task of barking randomly and loudly in between a group of passengers. This woman had sat behind me on that occasion, she had laughed at my barking and acted like a cat, pretending to claw me. It made the whole ordeal much more entertaining and sitting here, opposite her now made me laugh, reminiscing over the past.

I decided to try my luck and bark again, the tram was packed and although I knew how embarrassed Isla would be, she would find it funny. I barked loudly, a few people laughed, others looked at me disgusted and Isla higher face in her hands. A few barks later, the woman began hissing like a cat and the strange looks from the other passengers continued. Isla joined in the barking, laughing at the same time and held onto my arm lovingly. Her laughter echoed around the tram carriage, making the hairs on the back of my neck stand up, I felt nervous around her all of a sudden, I knew she was too good for me. After ten minutes of acting like animals and being judged by strangers, we arrived in Melbourne. My phone began ringing as we stepped onto the platform, the caller ID was Tabby, my heart sank as I answered the call..

Skip: Why are you calling me?

Tabby: Me and Noah are over Danny, I finished it for you. I want you!

Skip: Are you serious?!

Tabby: He meant nothing to me, I miss you Danny.

Skip: you should have thought about that before, I don't want to see you again.

Tabby: You're with her aren't you?!

Skip: Who?

Tabby: Don't act stupid, I know exactly what happened the other night. Enjoy time with your whore, but don't get too comfortable! I want you and I will get you.

With that the line went dead, "who was that?" Isla asked worried, holding on to my arm gently. I thought about telling her the truth, but I didn't want her to get upset over a few spiteful words, "No one important." I muttered, she didn't look convinced but let it go. Suddenly a loud screeching sounded out and Sierra ran towards us with Shay and Veronica closely behind hugging Isla, I would never understand the way girls greet each other. Luke, Jai, Beau and James wondered over and we all high fives each other and we all began walking towards the street fair. Music filled the streets of Melbourne, candy floss, popcorn, burgers and Chinese food stung my nostrils and the streets were packed with people laughing and queuing up for rides. Fans approached us occasionally asking for pictures and autographs, someone I still wasn't used to and the blonde girl I'd met on my first date with Isla ran over and hugged her. "OMG YOU AND SKIP ARE STILL TOGETHER! I SHIP YOU GUYS SO BAD!" she blushed and chatted friendly with Isla.

"Beau." I nudged him and pulled him away from the fans and the other guys, "I want to do something special for Isla, to show her how I feel." I explained and asked him for a few ideas. "There's an open mic/talent show at the end of the street fair, followed by fireworks. Get on the stage!" he suggested, it was perfect. I hugged him and we had a little bromance moment, the blonde girl, who's name was Alys, ran over and hugged Beau suddenly, "OMG BEAU BROOKS!" she began crying and beau hugged her back. The fans reactions to us we're amazing, some people weren't so nice, but the majority were incredible. I felt a weight jump on my back and Islas legs snaked around my waist, "where to miss?" I asked her, pretending to hold a steering wheel, "to the stars!" she laughed, quoting Titanic, and I spun her around. We walked to a booth an I bought her a pink candy floss, as promised and a bag of white chocolate strawberries. She kissed leant over and kissed my forehead, "GHOST TRAIN!" Luke and Jai yelled together, and the eight of us joined the queue.
