Secret Agent (5 Seconds of Summer)

Chapter 11: Betrayed

I was lying down in Calum's bed, alone. 

Tonight was my night off, and so I told the boys I was just going to chill in the flat and chill while they went out. I kind of missed Calum being here, and I felt anxious that I had left the boys to themselves. Well of course, they weren't alone. Security came along with them, as usual. 

"We're just going out for a meal! I fucking hate those people." Michael had growled, throwing a pillow in the air, then catching it. He had walked to the window to see the screaming girls from far below and sighed. "I guess it kinda makes sense, though."

I tossed in my sleep as my phone buzzed.

It was my day off, can't people fuck off just for today? I chatized my thoughts when I saw I had a text from Calum. 

Hey babe, sorry to do this but do you mind sharing a bed with one of the other guys? I pulled x

I was taken aback, but sighed as I complied and grabbed my things, heading into the room furthest away from Calums. I didn't feel comfortable hearing anything. I couldn't stop thinking that I was in that bed, and that bed was now going to lose it's innocence. If it hadn't already.

All the rooms looked the same, so I wasn't sure which was whose bed. 

I was like a child with separated parents. Being shuffled from home to home. 

I gave my office a call, hoping Henry would answer quickly. 

"Hello? Missing work already, are we?"

I shook my head, a smile making its way on my face. "Calum told me he's pulled a girl. Fancy doing a quick background check?"

Henry chuckled. "Sure. I'm sure she's perfectly safe. It's not like he hasn't slept in the same bed as someone much more lethal."

"But I won't kill him." I rolled my eyes, a smirk on my lips.

"I doubt this girl wants to kill him..." Henry murmured. "She's fine. No criminal records, but she does have fake breasts." 

I laughed. "Lovely." I sighed. "How long will this job be for?"

"Their agent is pleased with you so far, so keep it going and this could turn into a bigger thing."

"I don't want to be a bloody guard for a band!" I complained, feeling a sickly feeling in my stomach which I couldn't describe. I pushed the feeling away. "How can I stop them from being trampled by girls without being trampled myself?"

"You wouldn't be chosen for the job if you weren't right for it."

"Yeah, not like I haven't heard that before." I sighed, shutting my eyes as I tucked myself into the unfamiliar bed. 

I woke up to a movement on the mattress, and I opened my eyes to see Luke climbing into the bed with me. I smiled at him.

"Sorry."

"It's fine." He smiled politely at me. "My bed is always free if you needed to sleep somewhere...that didn't come out right."

I giggled, before sighing. "Is she pretty?"

Luke chuckled as he lied back on his pillows. "She's keen. Think Cal's just frustrated. I don't blame him when he has slept next to you this past week and hasn't been able to do anything with you."

I felt a heat rush up to my cheeks as I looked away. "Is that what guys always think of? Even with friends?"

Luke turned to me and shook his head. "Not all of them, but there's no denying that you are pretty beautiful..." He smirked. "Don't worry, I'm not trying to flirt with you. I couldn't pull a girl like you."

I turned to face him. Our faces were inches apart. "And why is that?"

Luke smiled before turning to lie on his back. "No reason."

There was a silence, before I replied. "I think you could. Only just not me. I...I have issues."

Luke glanced at me curiously. "You doing okay?"

I didn't reply as I turned around on the bed. A minute later, I felt Luke move closer to me, and he pulled me towards him. 

We were spooning.

A smile crept onto my face. "Thanks."

Luke didn't reply. He had fallen asleep instantly.

Calum POV

I kept to myself most of today, I felt so awful for what I did to Georgia that I knew she'd be pissed off with me. For the past week we have bonded on a whole other level. I had really opened to her and then we'd sit and joke about for a few more hours before sleep took us. 

I just didn't think properly when that girl basically threw herself at me. It didn't hit me what I actually did until Ashton angrily barged into my room this morning after I told the girl to go. I didn't even remember her name. Not sure whether I even asked her for it.

"Dude, Luke slept with Georgia last night." He growled. His face showed a mixture of emotions which I couldn't point out. "He said he wouldn't do anything!"

My eyes widened, shaking my head. "No, he can't have. Gee must have randomly chosen his bed cause she couldn't sleep in here last night."

Ashton looked pissed off and betrayed. "Nope. He's acting like happy go lucky. The look of a guy who has pulled."

"I don't believe you..." I whispered, before Luke practically skipped in.

"Hey guys, I'm making pancakes, do you want any?"

"No." Ashton spat, giving me a look before turning around and leaving the room. Luke looked to me for my answer. Jealousy filled my veins as I tried to decipher his change of mood.

"Did you sleep with Gee last night?" I questioned, frowning.

Luke blushed and looked away without replying. He mumbled something quickly but I called him up on it.

"What did you say?"

Luke smiled. "I said I'm glad you pulled last night, cause after that I don't think she's going to want to sleep in your bed again."

I felt my mouth drop open and heat rush to my cheeks. 

Luke giggled. "So...pancakes?"

Gemma POV

Calum avoided eye contact with me for the entirety of the next day. Ashton too. I felt like Michael and Luke were the only ones actually acknowledge my presence that day. Even though I had basically friend zoned Luke, he was even chipper than usual. The more giggly Luke got throughout the day, the more anger flashed on Ashton's face.

I spent the majority of the day playing Pokemon with Michael, when I felt my hidden earpiece connect. 

Afternoon! Henry's voice chirped in my ear, and I smiled. He knew I couldn't reply. Having a good day? 

I hummed in a slightly dissatisfied tone, pretending that I was directing it at the game. 

The boys have a premiere to attend next week. Make sure you're there.

How do I get myself there?
