Tour Life

Chapter 15 Back on Track

A/N: Switch of perspectives, hehehe.

Calum's POV

"You're an idiot, you know that right?" Luke says as he sits on my bed.

"Gee thanks Luke." I say, throwing a pillow at him, which successfully hits him in the face.

It's been a week since I've last talked...uh yelled at Julia.

"So, how ya gonna make it up to her?" Ashton adds from the other side of my room.

"I don't know. She's angry at me."

"Usually boyfriends don't yell at their girlfriends for no reason." Michael adds.

Time to throw a pillow in his face.

•••••••••

Julia's POV

I can't believe Calum is acting this way. He's a celebrity and I'm his stupid girlfriend.

I'm extremely upset at him.

I guess it also doesn't help my mood that it's a close to being a year since both my parents passed.

"Julia, can you run to the store for us?" My grandparents ask me. They're sick, so I have to run errands for them.

"Yeah. What do you need?"

She hands me a list and I head out the door.

The store isn't that far away, so I decide to walk there - the opposite direction of Calum's house.

I walk down the sidewalk, before hearing footsteps behind me. I quicken my pace as I hear, "Julia! Wait."

Glancing over my shoulder, I see Calum approaching.

"Leave me alone." I shout back.

Soon, he catches up to me, grabbing my arm to turn me around to face him.

"What do you want?" I say, shrugging his arm off my shoulder.

"Let me talk to you. Please." He pleads.

"Whatever." I roll my eyes.

"I'm sorry for being so mean last week. It's just I've been stressing over the album a lot. You don't even understand how hard it is being famous."

"Yeah. I know, but you've been ignoring me completely."

"You still don't understand," he shouts, "you have never had to stress over an album, have you? No. Didn't think so." He snaps.

"No Calum, I haven't. But if you came out here to yell at me again, i'm leaving."

And I turn around, tears streaming down my face.

I hear him sigh behind me, and run to my side.

"Why can't you just listen?" He yells, but softens up once he sees me crying, "Hey, don't cry."

"Calum," I choke out, before more tears slip out of my eyes, "I've been really upset lately. About you and..." I trail off, more tears streaming.

He studies my face a bit, almost like he's trying to figure out what the 'and' meant. I figure he found out, when he wraps his arms around me.

"I'm really sorry Julia. I didn't realize. I'm sorry for acting like a jerk. I'm sorry, okay? The stress just got to me." And he hugs me again.

I look into his eyes, "It's okay Calum. I'm sorry too. I guess I was afraid of you meeting someone else while you were out other places..."

"Julia, I would have to be stupid to ever dump you because you are amazing, alright?"

I hug him again and ask, "Can I ask a question?"

"Anything." He answers.

"What's your new phone number?" I giggle.

He types the digits into my phone, along with the rest of the boys newly changed phone numbers.

His phone beeps, and he smiles as he reads the text.

"Hey Julia, can you come to my house for a bit?"

"I gotta run to the store first. Why?" I ask, confused.

"Just hurry, k? And it's a surprise." He adds before strolling back to his house with a smirk on his face.
