After him.

chapter 2

After fangirling on the inside whilst the boys sang 'Try hard' And I sat to the side on my stool Calum had given me, I got a call from one of my friends out in the crowd. I wanted them up here with me and to talk to them, but just as I went to answer it Calum came over, still wearing my flower crown. Bending down so I could hear him, he stopped just to my left.

"I never even asked your name." he panted, he was sweating from the peformence.

"E-Emerson" I managed to stutter out.

"Mind if I call you em?" I shook my head and smiled. Luke ran over and whispered something in his ear,  Calum nodded and turned back to face me, one again shinning that beautiful smile.

"want to come back stage em?"

I stared off into the crowd looking for my friends but they had moved and the crowd was to big to search for them, so I mimmiked his smile and took his hand as he helped me of the stool.

'Back stage' consisted of a big van and yet another moshpit of girls waiting around the fences to see a glimps of those perfect boys. I was Walking just behind Calum, who noticed and slowed down so I could catch up as his long legs carried him further and faster than I could walk. As we entered the van Ashton sat up from the couch and smiled, Luke walked out of the bathroom and Michael walked in behind us. Everyone was looking from Calum to me as if waiting for an explanation. I felt awkward and like there was something I wasn't being told about. Why was I here? I hadn't even given it much thought until now, Why had Calum chosen me out of the whole crowd?

My phone buzzed and I jumped, almost forgeting where I was.

Where are you? What the f*ck is happening?! - T

I realised how worried and unknowing my friends were to my situation and became frantic. Calum broke the silence, before I could tell him I needed to call them.

'not now' was all he said, to no one in perticular, but it seemed to get him funny looks from the others.

Walking to the mini bar, he offered me a drink, but I couldn't drink now that I knew something was going on.

"No, thank. Uhh.. Can I ask a question? Why me, What am I doing here? I'm not complaining of course I just don't know why out of the whole crowd you would pick me and not someone prettier or thinner or even, taller. I'm nothing special I'm not ev-" I realised then that I was rambling, like I always did when I got nervous.

Calum's smile faded, his eyes dropped and he slouched against the sink. He sat his drink down, harder than I expected him, causing me to jump.

"you're special, em. Trust me...

you better meet up with your friends though, I'm sorry I wasted your time.". He sounded mournful and empty, like his favorite animal had just died.

I have a plan guys, dont worry. These first few chapters are just fillers ~H
