If I Could Fly // c.t.h.

holly.

I honestly didn't know what to think at the moment. Calum was being... Calum. But, he also wasn't being Calum.

I don't know. It's confusing.

He's confusing.

One moment he's acting sweet, like how he was telling me about his "cloud dream" as a child on the plane, and then he's defending me by threatening this guy who called me a slut, and now he's acting cold towards me.

Calum is weird.

Maybe he realized he was being (slightly) nice to me and turned his asshole mode back on. Maybe on the plane he was so tired he didn't have the energy to be a prick.

I could consider my options.

1. I could talk to him about it.

Or...

2. I could not do that.

I went for the latter, settling on ignoring him right back. I turned my attention back onto Luke, who was making conversation with Ashton and Michael.

"...We have almost ten thousand interviews this week, how will I survive?"

Ashton rolled his eyes. "We have one interview this week, Luke, and two next week. Stop exaggerating."

Luke sighs. "I have enough jet lag to last me a whole month."

"Same," Michael said.

"We are we going now?" I questioned.

"To our hotel," Luke answers. "Thank god. I could pass out any minute."

I giggled. "You slept the entire plane ride."

"Luke could sleep for two whole months and that'd still wouldn't be enough," Michael tells me, laughing.

"So our hotel..." I began. "Where would I sleep?"

"On a bed," Ashton giggled.

I rolled my eyes. "I mean, which one of you Aussies will I have to share with?"

"Well, considering you're Calum's 'girlfriend,' I think management has arranged you to share a room with Calum..." Luke tells me.

My jaw dropped. "What? Are you kidding me? I can't share a room with him!"

What if he tries something on me, like back at the concert?

"Maybe the room has two beds," Michael assured me.

"I'm praying," I mumbled.

"Stop acting like it's the end of the world, princess," Calum chuckles from beside me.

I turned my head and glared at him. "I thought you were ignoring me."

He shrugs. "I always ignore you. Well, I try to."

"And you fail every time."

"What can I say?" he smirks. "You're like some sort of force that pulls me in."

I think my heart stopped beating in my chest. He's never really said anything to me like that. What the hell?

He's probably just trying to get into your pants, Holly, he doesn't mean a kind word he says to you.

"Well, hopefully one day I can pull you out of your mind, because you're clearly losing it," I breathed out.

Dammit.

Calum places his hand on my thigh and I frowned, trying to push it away. However it doesn't budge due to his persistence.

"Don't touch me," I whisper harshly at him.
