Star In The Shadow // CTH [Editing process]

"Hurry up, I'm hungry!" Says one of my friends as I put my shoes on.

"You're always hungry..." I tell him as I finish putting my shoes on and pick my sunglasses from the nightstand. "Either way, you are not going to buy the food, so you'll have to wait."

He doesn't answer, well he does, but it's with a pillow landing straight on my face.

"Really Mickey!" Says Ashton as he grabs the pillow that was at my feet. "I just fixed the beds!" He finishes as he puts the pillow back in the bed.

"There's people that work for that..." Says Michael looking straight at Ashton.

This time he's the one who receives the smack from the pillow.
I chuckle as I announce that I'm leaving, and leave two of my friends having a pillow fight.

"Hey, where you goin?" Says a blonde boy as we cross paths on the hall.

"Michael's hungry and he can't buy his own food..." I say as I put my hands in my pockets.

"He's an idiot..." He says as he starts to walk again.

"Luke!" I say and he turns to listen. "They're having a pillow fight... Just a warning for when you get in."

"Thanks... I'll show them who's the king in pillow fights." He says as he gets his key card out to open the door and I get to the elevator.

As I'm at the elevator I put my glasses and my hoodie on. Thankfully, no one came in during the process of going down. As the elevator door opens I'm grateful that there's no fans or paparazzi in nor out the hotel, which means that I get a little more freedom as I go to buy our food. Yes, our food, I'm actually kind of hungry now.

Michael didn't tell me what he wants to eat, so I just decide to buy pizza. After all, the four of us like pizza. As I'm walking down the street I take my hoodie off and look at the ground. It's a sunny Spring day, but I just feel lazy. I keep walking and don't notice that someone is coming the opposite side. The person must work out or something because the person manages to hit me hard in my arm and side of my stomach.

"Ow!" I say as I feel the impact.

"Oh my God! I'm so sorry!" Says the girl as she turns to apologize. I can't help but look at her, she's beautiful.

Jokingly I say "You should be careful, you could kill someone."

She just stares at me, and I realize why. On an impulse, I cover her mouth with my left hand. What am I even doing? I'm not like this. But I guess I just don't want to be recognize. I look at the girl in front of me. She's so beautiful. I bet she actually does exercise, her body shows it by the way it looks; tough, but not to much. Her skin is bronze, which matches dark brown wavy hair. And her eyes are green, like a light green. I should be careful though, because those beautiful eyes are glaring at me right now. I think I know her from somewhere, but I'm probably wrong.

"I'll take my hand away from your mouth if you promise not to scream my name, or anything..." I tell her, hoping she will actually follow what I asked. I stay still and wait for an answer. Although she can't say much, my hand is still on her mouth. Instead she just nods. I take my hand away from her mouth and just stare at her, until she finally breaks the silence.

"I'm... I'm sorry... Did I hit you too hard?" She asks with a concern look on her face.

"Well, just a little..." I says as I take my glasses off. Lie... It hurts quite a lot.

She just stays quiet. I think she doesn't know what to say. So to end the awkwardness, I speak.

"Ok, so, I'll see you around..." I say as I put my glasses on and my hands on my pockets. Not exactly what I thought I would say.

"Yeah, sure. It was nice seeing you..." She says as she smiles politely. Which I respond with a nod.

I leave. I don't know why I did this, I could've ask something. I guess I was too nervous. Wait... Nervous? Why would I be nervous? I'm Calum Thomas Hood. One of the members of one of the biggest band of  world. Okay, you know what... enough chit chat. I need to get food now. I'm starving, and Michael is gonna kill me if I don't bring food ASAP.
