I stood behind the counter of the coffeeshop, taking a rather spunky girl's order.
"I'll have a tall mocha with 2 extra shots of expresso," she said with a very wide smile. That was always Thomas's drink order. I don't know why but something about the girl just creeped me out. There was 'crazy' written all over her.
"Can I get a name for that?" I asked.
"Isabella... yeah, I'm here to find my boyfriend and surprise him," she said. I just nodded, not really wanting to talk to get as I write her name on the cup and handed it to Britt so she could start making it. "Yeah, I haven't seen him in so long. I'm sure he misses me by now. We're in love and-"
"I'm sorry, I don't mean to be rude but you're holding up the line.."
"Oh, right. How silly of me." She handed me 6 dollars for her drink and stepped out of the way, sitting on a chair at the bar that was closest to me and continued rambling on. I could not get rid of her. I kept glancing up at the clock, just wanting work to end. So close. 5 more minutes.
"You know, I feel really good about today. I'm positive that I'll find him. He's going to be so happy to see me. I just know it." Suddenly, I felt a soft flutter in my stomache. I put my hand over it and looked down, not exactly sure what it was. Then it happened again, but a bit stronger. I think my baby was kicking.
"You alright?" Britt asked.
"Yeah. I'm fine. Great actually." I smiled at her. She waved at someone behind me.
"Hi Thomas," she said. I turned around and saw him walking over.
"Thomas?" Isabella said standing up. I saw his eyes widen.
"Isabella?" He asked. I just loojed between them.
"Oh my god! I've been looking for you everywhere! I've missed you!" She said awkwardly hugging him as he just gave me a pleading look.
"Isabella," he said pulling her arms off of him. "We broke up. A long long long time ago."
"No, we didn't. I mean, I know you were upset but I forgive you for your harsh words."
"No. We aren't together... at all. We broke up. When we were 16... I've moved on with my life, you should move on with yours." She glanced over at me.
"Oh my god. Did you... are you cheating on me with this slut?"
"No. I broke up with you and now I'm dating this awesome woman. And now, we have to go or we're going to be late. So... goodbye. And Isabella. You really need to move on." He grabbed my hand and quickly pulled me out of the shop.
"So. You know her?"
"I broke up with her because she's insane..." I laughed lightly as we got into the car, before feeling the flutter again.
"I think the baby is kicking," I said again.
"Wait, seriously?" I just nodded in response and grabbed his hand, putting it where he was kicking. I watched the smile creep onto his face.
"It's still crazy," he whispered. I smiled at him as he looked up at me. "Anyways. We should hurry." I just smiled at him again as he started driving to the hideout.

I sat next to Ava, listening to the guys argue about how the hell we should stop Nick from completely devastating the world. They all had different ideas on how exactly we should do it. I just kept staring at Will, I couldn't shake the off feeling I had about him. During the entire meeting, he stayed silent, looking almost as if he was planning on how to kill everyone in the room. I hated these meetings, they seemed to go absolutely no where.
"We need someone on the inside," Luke said suddenly, and everyone went quiet.
"How do you suggest we do that?" Robbie asked, listening intently.
"One if us gets ahold of Nick and says they have information regarding the alliance and they want in on their plan. After Nick makes them prove themselves, he'll probably have them stay in the group to report back to him."
"That could work..." Urie said, leaning forward. "But who would do it?"
"What about Cayla? She came from them, after all," Will suggested.
"No way. She betrayed them. They'd kill her on the spot," Grant said.
"We're not putting my wife in danger," Luke said.
"Well it can't be Thomas or Caitlyn," Dylan piped in. "For 2 reasons. 1st, the baby needs both parents alive. And 2nd, Nick knows that Caitlyn would never help him ever again and Thomas wouldn't leave her..."
"It's true," Grant replied.
"I could do it," Calum said. Everyone turned and looked at him. "It makes sense. I mean, you all have someone that needs you. I'm alone. And, I've never done anything that would make Nick think I'd never join him." Brendon seemed to be thinking about it. "It needs to be someone, and I'm the only one that doesn't have anyone who would miss them too much."
"That's not true," Luke said.
"It is though. All of my family is gone now."
"Yeah, all of your blood family, but that doesn't mean you don't have a family with us. After all we've been through together? You and I, we grew up together. And then after all the shit that Depp put us through. You're like a brother to me."
"And me... you've save my life countless times," Dylan said.
"You're all like family to me too, but that doesn't change the fact that someone needs to do this," Calum said.
"Fine. You can do it, if you really are up to it," Brendon said. "But you need to be careful. If you even think that they suspect youn get out as fast as you can. Understood?"
"Yes sir."
"Alright. You, me, Luke and Harry are going to figure out the details. The rest ofyou do what you have to do. We'll fill you in tomorrow."

For some reason I really hated the idea of Calum going in. We had never been close by any means, but at the same time, I had a terrible feeling. If Will really was on Nick's team, he would tell him our plan and Calum would be killed before we even started. But I guess it war the risk he wanted to take...
