(Alva's POV)
I smile as I open my eyes. I look around at my room, which I dearly missed. Even though Tobi's flat made me feel at home, this was always my home.
I smell bacon and get up. I get out of bed and put on a robe, heading downstairs and to the kitchen. I look to see Vik at the stove. I walk to him and give a small smile as he looks up at me. "Morning. Sleep well?"
"Of course I did." I chuckle a bit. He smiles and looks back at the bacon and egg platters he was making. "You?"
"Fell asleep at 5." He says. "Woke up at 4 and have been up since." He chuckles. That explained why he wasn't at dinner...
"Where is everyone?" I ask as he puts salt in the eggs.
"Simon and JJ are recording. Josh is still asleep. Grab two plates will you?" He asks and I smile and go to the cabinet, taking out two plates. I questioned if he made food for the others, but didn't say anything. He stays silent.
"So I need to tell you something." He says and splits the eggs and bacon between our two plates. I grab a small bacon piece and look at him. "I haven't told any of the other guys yet."
"Okay." I mutter, swallowing my bacon. He puts the pan in the sink and leaves it on. He turns to me.
"We broke up." He says. I knew what he was talking about.
"Why?" I ask. I turn to him, guilty, yet happy for a reason.
"She cheated on me. I don't need that in my life." He says and sighs. "I'll tell the rest of the guys later today, maybe."
"I wish you luck." I mumble. He nods and walks to the plates and I turn with him, grabbing my plate. I look at my plate and smile. He walks off and I decide on not saying anything.
(Josh's POV)
"We're home!" Simon screams as I slam the door. Alva runs down the stairs with a smile. I hold the huge tree and bring it to the living room, putting it in the corner. Alva follows and squeals. She loved Christmas.
Our presents are all ready for each other, but the tree still had to yet be set up. Alva got to work.
"I need help!" She screams. I walk over to help her and hear running behind me. I spin around and see JJ running. He screams as he slides on the floor and stops by Vik, who sat by the tree. Vik put up his hands to protect himself, and Alva bursts out in laughter.
"We got this!" JJ screams and I put my hands up, chuckling. I walk off and hear a box being ripped open. I give another chuckle. I can't wait to see the power of Vik and Alva... and JJ.
(Vik's POV)
"It is done!" JJ screams. Alva punches his chest and he spins to her. He glares.
"Not yet! The star!" Alva grits and JJ pokes her. She tries to bite him, but fails. She giggles and I smile as I grab the star. Alva looks at me with a smile. "You wanna do it?"
"Nah. The guest should." I smile as she takes it. She looks up at the tall tree. She turns to look at JJ who sighs. He kneels down and grabs her knees, lifting her up. She sits on his shoulder and puts the star on the top. She smiles as JJ lets her down.
"Now JJ." I laugh. He smiles.
"It is done!" He screams again. I sigh as JJ giggles. Simon walks in and puts his thumbs up.
"JJ actually helped?" Simon jokes. JJ looks serious, and then runs at Simon, who screams and rushes upstairs. I hear their thumping and a door slam. I look at Alva with a smirk as Josh walks in. I hear JJ scream and he rolls his eyes.
"Nice work. Simon insulted Nando's?" Josh asks as he fixes an ornament to be straight. I chuckle.
"Nah. He never could." Vik smirks and I giggle. Josh furrows his eyebrows as he plays with the tree.
"Hm. Anyway, Vik, when are you leaving again? Me and Tobi have to record and I need a time period." Josh says. I look at Alva and spot her blush. She turns away.
"4." Is all I say, since I'm leaving tomorrow afternoon at 4. Christmas Eve.
"Okay. I'm going for a Nando's run. You guys want some?" Josh asks as he claps his hands.
"Same order." I say and Alva nods. Josh smiles and walks off. I look at Alva, and she avoids eye contact with me. She looks up into my eyes and I furrow my eyebrows.
"I need to go to the bathroom." She mumbles, rushing off. I stare, confused. I sigh as I turn back to the tree, taking in the sight.
(Tobi's POV)
The door opens and I look to see Alva. She looks up at me and her mouth opens, then closes. She smiles and lets me in. She looks me in the eyes. "Tobi's here!"
She quickly leans into my ear. "Costa later."
I understood and nod as she walks into her room. The door closes as Josh and JJ emerge from upstairs. Josh smiles as JJ snaps his fingers. "Mah nigga."
"Stop!" I groan, but can't help but chuckle. JJ goes into the kitchen as I take off my shoes.
"We need food!" JJ groans. Alva's door opens.
"I'm going to Costa later." Alva smiles. She closes the door as Vik walks downstairs.
"I'm also going, for the backup. Plus I know your orders." I smile. It was true, I did.
"Heh?" Vik says. He looks at me in the eyes, then furrows his eyebrows. "Why can't she just write them down?"
"Too much work." Josh says. "Let's go."
I walk with Josh upstairs. I could feel Vik's eyes watching me as I hear JJ turn on one of the swegways. I gulp as I walk into Josh's room. There's no way he could know, is there?
(Alva's POV)
"We're leaving!" I scream. I get many 'okay' responses as Tobi closes the door. He spins his keys on his index finger, opening the door and we get in.
"I missed you so much." I mumble. He smiles as I put on my seatbelt. He starts the car.
"I miss you too babe." He mumbles. I look out the window, a blush forming, as he pulls out of the driveway.
-----------------------
I moan as he kisses me. After Costa, we decided a quick backseat make-out session would be acceptable. He parked a block away from the Sidemen house.
He pulls away and I fix my shirt. He gives me one last soft kiss. "I love you."
"I love you too." I mumble. He kisses my forehead and I smile as I close my eyes.
"Hey I have a question." He asks as he sits upright. I do too, brushing my hair with my fingers. Good thing it was in a ponytail, so it wasn't as messy.
"Did you tell Vik about us?" He asks. I bite my lip.
"What did he do?" I ask. Tobi shuts his eyes and sighs.
"He looks at me weird and questioned why I needed to come with you. I got out of it though." I reassure her. She sighs and nods.
"Good. And no. I may have blushed when Josh mentioned you yesterday." I say. He groans. "I'm sorry!"
"I know, babe. It's okay. I understand." He says as he opens his eyes. He thinks for a second. "We need to stop hanging out for a bit. Vik needs to loose his thoughts."
"For how long?" I ask. He shrugs.
"As long as needed. Hang out, but not close or alone." He says. "Like right now, we need to get back."
He gets out and goes to the front. I crawl through the armrest center and sit at the passenger seat. He leans in and gives me a quick kiss. I sigh as we pull out and drive towards the house.
Vik wai
Sushi out!
