Calum:

"Feeling Used
But I'm
Still missing you."

It was all a lie. Everything was a lie. You had been dating Calum for a year and it was the best year of your life. You - the ordinary girl who was nothing more than a fan - had been given Calum Hood's number by the celebrity himself.

You were happy. Not because he was a celebrity, but because you found the right person. At least, you hoped so. You were in a relationship with Calum for a year and three months when you found out something that broke your heart. He broke up with you, telling you that the management told him to date someone who was nice and would make him look good in the media.

That "someone" was you. You were nice and you were a fan. What would be better than showing everyone that he'd date a fan?

"This is a joke, right?" You asked, hoping he'd say it was. You refused to believe that he'd only date you for the media. He didn't respond. "Calum, please tell me it's a prank or something!" You put your hands on the back of your head, trying to calm down.

But, you couldn't. Who would calm down when hearing that everything could be a lie? You looked at the brown-eyed boy, hoping he'd finally talk. He just shook his head. "Did you ever love me?" You questioned. Your voice cracked and your vision became blurry as tears filled your eyes. You blinked, not caring if they ran down your cheeks.

You let out a sob, remembering everything. You wanted to forget it all. You felt used, but you still missed and loved him. "Calum," you whispered, "I miss you."

"I'll love you always." You cried, remembering that he used to say those words to you.

Ashton:

"I hate you, I love you,
I hate that I want you."

Ashton Irwin. Your best friend for years. You met in high school and hit it off. Now, he was famous with his band "5 Seconds Of Summer." He introduced you to his bandmates and you became friends with them. But, you were closer to Ashton, of course.

You went to a "Green Day" concert with him and that was when you realized you liked him. Everything hit you like a wave. You remembered every moment you had. How you met, how he was there for you, how you fell asleep on him. But, he was dating your best friend.

You sat down on your bed, letting out a sigh. "I should hate him. I should hate him." You put your head in your hands. "I. . Hate. . . You." You breathed, not meaning it. "I hate this feeling. I hate what you do to me."

There was a knock on your bedroom door. You blinked away tears that were starting and walked to the door, opening it. You saw Ashton. "What are you doing here?" You asked quietly.

"I was wondering if you wanted to go to the movies with (best friend's name) and I." Ashton replied.

"Not today. I have to take care of some things. Plus, I'd hate to be a third wheel and get in the way." You answered.

"(y/n)--"

"Ash, don't say anything, okay? I'm okay, just stressed. You didn't do anything."

"But--"

"It's okay. I'm okay." You closed the door, your hand resting on it. You looked at the floor and closed your eyes. You took a deep breath. "I will be okay."

Luke:

"How is it you never notice
That you are slowly killing me?"

You smiled, seeing Luke interact with fans. He was your best friend and some fans asked him for a photo. You found it nice how he talked to them and always took photos with them. He never said "no."

The blonde boy walked over to you. Your smile grew bigger. A girl walked over to him. "Um, I-I know you just stopped taking photos. . . But, can I have one? I'm sorry for bothering you." She asked quietly.

Luke glanced at you before looking at her. "You're fine, don't worry." He smiled at her.

"Do you want me to take the picture?" You volunteered. She smiled and nodded, handing her phone to you. The camera app was already open. She hugged Luke's side and smiled at the camera. Luke grinned and you took the photo. They did another where they made a silly face. You handed her phone back to her.

"Thank you so much!" She beamed.

"No problem!" You replied.

"Uh, I know this is really personal, but I ship you two." She suddenly said. "Are you dating? I won't tell anyone."

"Dating?" Luke chuckled. "No, uh, we're best friends. She's been my friend for as long as I can remember." He put his arm around you. "She's really pretty and any guy would be lucky to date her. But, we're like siblings."

You blushed hearing her question and then glanced at Luke, hearing his answer. Your heart shattered. You had a crush on him for a few months and you were going to tell him today. "Yeah, we're just friends." You faked a smile.

Luke never noticed how you blushed when someone mentioned you two being a couple, how you were head over heels for him. . . Nothing. You were stuck in the friend zone and you couldn't do anything about it.

Michael:

"You want her, you need her
And I'll never be her."

You were hanging out with Calum, Ashton, Luke, and Michael. You sat on the sofa with them. "There's this girl I met and she's amazing. She likes video games and the same music as me. I got her number and we've been texting. Should I ask her out?" Michael asked.

"Do you think she's really the one for you?" You casually questioned.

"I think so, yeah. I feel a connection." He answered. "(y/n), what should I do?"

"Whatever you want." You replied, feeling jealous. "If you feel a connection, sure. If you're having doubts about her, don't."

"I need her. She's perfect." Michael smiled dreamily.

"Mikey, don't you think it's a bit too soon to 'need' her?" You looked at your best friend, hoping he wasn't being serious.

"I can't help it. I really, really like her." He let out a sigh. "Help me, (y/n), please."

"I'm not much help." You said, wanting the conversation to be over. "But, fine, I'll help. Just say 'I know this is soon, but I really like you. I was wondering if you'd like to go on a date with me.'"

"Thanks." Michael told you, tapping on his phone. Three minutes later, he smiled. "She said 'yes!' Thank you! I'm going to go decide on what to wear for tomorrow." He got up and walked to his room.

You looked at your lap, heartbroken. "(n/n)," Calum said, "are you okay?"

You shook your head. "She makes him happy. He wants her. I'll never be her. I just have to realize that I never had a chance with him and I never will."

"I'm sorry." He hugged you. Ashton and Luke also hugged you as you tried not to cry.

When I see the name "Olivia O'Brien," I think of Dylan O'Brien. Whoops. And the One Direction song "Olivia."

I love you.
