(Stay) Chapter Twenty - Four

Elena's POV

"If the earth ends up crumbling down to it's knees baby

We just gotta get out

We just gotta get out

If these skyscrapers, tumble down and crash around baby

We just gotta get out

We just gotta get out

If the earth ends up crumbling down to it's knees baby, we just gotta get out. We just gotta get out." The crowd erupts with screams and yells and I cheer along with them.

"Thank you!" Michael cheers into the microphone and the boys make there way off the stage.

"How was it?" Calum asks in a pant, sweat glistening on his forehead.

"That was amazing!" I say and wrap my arms around his shoulders.

"We have another show tomorrow night, don't forget, Calum." Ashton says and pats Calum's shoulders.

"Haven't seen you in a while, Ellie." Ashton smiles towards me.

"It's been awhile hasn't it?" I smile and he hugs me.

"You and Lizzie should come over and hang sometime. We miss ya." Michael say as he joins us.

"We miss you guys too." I tell them. "Lizzie would absolutely love that." I smile.

"Don't we have to go get Lizzie from your moms?" Calum asks from besides me.

The rest of the boys frown.

"I could go get her and you could stay and hang out with the guys." I tell Calum. He furrows his eye brows and shakes his head.

"Or," Ashton says, "Elena can stay an you can go get Elizabeth." Ashton tells Calum. Calum glares at Ashton and smacks the back of his head playfully.

"That's not happening." Calum says.

"How 'bout we all go for pizza after we get Lizzie? All six of us." I offer and the boys immediately smile.

"I'm in!" Michael says happily an we say goodbye to the boys as Calum and I make our way to get Elizabeth.

"You were amazing." I tell Calum as we pull out of the parking lot. "I missed hearing you sing." I say without thinking.

He looks over at me from the drivers seat and raises and eyebrow at me while smirking.

"Have you now?" He teases. I push at his arm.

"Drive, Hood." I command playfully.

He turns the music up fairly loud and begins to sing along obnoxiously.

"And we can't stop! And we won't stop!" He belts out.

"Please stop. Just stop." I laugh, I'm actually laughing...I haven't laughed like this with him in so long and it feels so good.

He switches the radio off and we continue to laugh together.

"I think you might have ruined that song for me." I joke and he pouts playfully.

"You're just jealous." He sticks his tongue out at me.

"Oh yeah? Of what?" I stuck out my tongue at him as well.

"My amazing singing skills." He says as if it's the most obvious thing.

"Oh shut up." I laugh and we continue the car ride with playful banter.
