Now // Michael Clifford

2.

Emma's POV

I woke up around 2 and went into the kitchen to get food. I grabbed my phone and called Eliza to tell her to come and help me get ready. As much as I don't want to admit it, I'm really exited to see Michael. I waited in the living room until she got here then went into my room to find something to wear.

"Where are you going?" Eliza said looking through my closet for something decent.

"I have no idea." I said jumping on my bed trying to get Michael to tell me.

"Here wear this." she handed me a pair of black skinny jeans and a nice shirt. hopefully were going somewhere casual. I pulled my hair up into a bun and grabbed my shoes.

"He'll be here any minute." I say when someone knocked at the door.

"Hi." he said standing awkwardly outside.

"Hi." I smiled grabbing my purse and waving bye to Eliza. We got in his car and started driving, I still have no idea where to.

"What music do you listen to?" Michael asked looking through his CDs.

"Mostly Green Day, All Time Low, the Killers, it would take me all day to name them all." I laughed looking out the window.

"Oh my god All Time Low is awesome I wanna write with them one day." he said putting a cd in.

"Oh yeah you're in a band I almost forgot." I laugh turning to face him.

"Yeah we're not that good." he laughed while turning into where I assume we're going.

"Yes you are- is this the zoo?! oh. my. gosh." I smiled looking at the random place he chose to go.

"Yeah but it closes in two hours." he said as we got out of the car.

"It looks like it's gonna rain." I say looking up at the black clouds.

"I guess we'll have to see then." he said while we walked over to the giraffes.

"I can't believe we're at the zoo, this was the best idea ever." I said looking at all the animals.

"I know, I'm awesome right." he laughed sitting on a bench.

"So, tell me about you." he said.

"Um, I just graduated highschool and my favorite color is blue. I like pizza, and I hate heights." I said signaling for him to go.

"I just graduated highschool too. I'm in a band obviously, I love pizza too, I work at a cd store, and I live with Luke, Calum, and Ashton." he said thinking of anything else to say.

"What's your last name?" I asked noticing I still didn't know.

"Clifford, what's yours?" he asked

"Wilson." I said feeling rain drops hit my face.

"It's raining." he said getting up while it started getting worse.

"Yes it is." I said running as it started pouring. We ran to the car and jumped in. We were both soaked.

"That was interesting." he said laughing.

"Yea it was."

"I wanna dye my hair, do you wanna help me?" He said starting the car.

"Yea I wanna dye a little of mine I've never dyed my hair before." I said looking over at michael.

"Really? yea we can go get some and do it at my place is that okay?"

"Yea that's fine." I said hesitant knowing all of his friends will be there too.

-

We bought blue dye and went back to his house.

"I'm sorry in advance if the boys mess with you." Michael laughed opening the door."

"Oooh bringing her home on the first date?" I heard someone laugh from the other room.

" No Cal this isn't a date and we're just dying our hair." Michael yelled to Calum I assume was his name. Two other boys came into the room and sat on the couch.

"Guys this is Emma, Emma this is Calum, Ashton, and Luke." he said pointing to them as he introduced me.

"We're going to dye our hair now." he said pulling me up the stairs and into the bathroom. he pulled out the dye and started putting it in his hair.

"You can use it now." he said handing me the bottle. I sectioned my top layer of hair and dyed the bottom.

"Now we wait, do you wanna go downstairs?" he asked throwing away all the dye.

"yea sure."

We walked downstairs and sat on the couch while the other boys played FIFA.

"Do you wanna play?" Luke asked handing me a controller.

"Duh." I laughed while everyone started playing.

-

I ended up beating them twice, then we had to go rinse out the dye. Both of us used bright blue and it looked really good on Michael.

"I really like it." I said looking up at his new hair.

"Me too." he agrees.

"It's late do you want me to take you home?" he asked looking at his hair in the mirror.

"Yeah thank you." I said while we went down the stairs and said bye to the guys.

Once we got to my house I thanked Michael for today and went inside. I took a shower and thought about how he said it wasn't a date. I think a part of me wanted it to be.
