Scene One (5SOS & R5)

Chapter Seven - Liv

Liv's POV

"This is where you guys shoot?" Tati asks Calum and me when we finish setting up. She motions to the single green-painted wall and other white walls.

I sigh and nod. "Yes. We record videos in here."

"Two cameras here, two cameras there." Calum spins around the room. He double checks the lighting and pats me on the head. "Good job, Livy. I'm going to get Rossy." He then leaves the room and I'm left with the idiot.

"What do you want to talk about?" I ask her as I recheck the cameras.

"The fact that Column likes you," she replies to me. Her hair is put in a perfect braid and I watch as she wipes every last bit of makeup from her face.

I roll my eyes as I wipe my face as well. "He doesn't. That thing that happened yesterday was just an accident."

She stops wiping her face for a sec. "Oh? What happened yesterday?"

"You haven't heard? He was falling off of a swivel chair and I ran over to grab his legs. Then he spun me on top of him. It was smooth," I tell her and set the makeup on the tables.

"I made a smoothie once," Tati says as she reminisces. "I forgot to close the blender and now I'm banned from using a pencil."

I stare at her with a smile forming on my face. It's completely unrelated, yet I understand. "That makes sense," I lie to her and look down at the table. I fiddle with the liquid eyeliner and set it back down on the table when Ross and Calum enter the room.

We start the video by introducing ourselves. "Hey guys, it's Liv and Cal! As you all know, this is Ross and the pretty girl next to him is Tati! We're doing the Boyfriend Does My Makeup Challenge!" I announce and motion to everyone. Calum does his signature wink to the camera as Ross and Tati wave.

"We're not really dating or anything," Ross clarifies. "We're just friends making a video. You know. Just a video. We're not dating."

"We no date. Date for cavemen," Tati adds, sounding stupid as ever. I might just edit that out.

Then, we go into pairs. I sit in front of Calum and Tati sits behind me with Ross in front of her. Calum picks up the eyeliner and I close my eyes, thinking that he'd put it on my eyelids.

"Why are you closing your eyes?" he asks with a laugh. "I'm giving you sideburns," he says as he giggles and outlines sideburns before coloring it in with black eyeshadow.

"As you can see, I had just applied foundation to Tati's beautiful face," Ross speaks to the camera. "And I am currently applying blush to her cheekbones."

"How do you know this lingo?!" Calum shrieks as he watches Ross brush the blush on Tatianna's face.

"I have a sister, if you haven't quite noticed yet," Ross answers without moving his gaze from her face. Or at least, that's what I assume. Ross is behind me.

Calum throws his hands in the air with the liquid eyeliner. "I have a sister too! I should know this lingo!" he cries and colors in my eyebrows after picking up the lipgloss.

"Ross, why are you using lipstick as eyeshadow?" Tati asks him and Ross lets a gasp escape his lips.

"That's so basic, Ross!" Calum points out to him. "Even I know what lipstick is!"

"Well at least I can differentiate lipgloss from an eyebrow pencil!" Ross argues.

"Shut up." And just like that, Calum gives him the finger. I slap it away, hoping that no one sees it. "Okay, Liv, I'm giving you a unibrow."

I scruch my nose and frown at Calum. "Why are you giving me a unibrow? You're supposed to make me look good!" The jerk told me to do this challenge but was still making me look like the before picture of a hobo.

"I'm winning this," Ross brags to us.

"This isn't supposed to be a conversation, Ross," Tati says to him as he probably tickles her nose with a brush. "You have to let Column win because everyone pities the lovesick puppy."

"I am not lovesick!" Calum argues.

"Whatever you say."

"Ross is the lovesick puppy," I giggle as Calum picks up the lipsticks and puts it on my lips. That is probably the only thing he'll get correct on my face. "Did you just confuse 'conversation' for 'competition?'" When I see on Cal's face that he's made a mistake, he takes his thumb and wipes away the error.

It is a cute gesture, but the lipstick just smudged. Calum groans and picks up some of the makeup remover napkin things. He dabs the smudged red lipstick away and smiles when he sees that his 'masterpierce' looks beautiful.

"You look great," Ross says to me after peeking at me. "I wish Tati looked as pretty as you."

"Should I be offended?" Tati asks, sounding offended anyway. There was really no need in asking if she is already sounding like that.

"Not at all," Ross replies, "because you're beautiful as well."

"You two are disgusting," I mutter and close my eyes. Calum begins to put foundation on my eyelids and I exhale loudly.

"You're just jealous because you don't have someone that loves you, huh?" Ross teases. "Liv, you know that's true. You're just scared to admit it." I turn around and give him the finger. He rolls his eyes and continues putting more blush and foundation on Tati's face.

"Everyone loves Livy," Calum defends me with a smirk. While I was turned around, he drew a mustache on himself, rather quickly.

We all stop to admire Calum's face. "Calum, you look beautiful right now," I say. He smiles and I pick up the remover to wipe off Calum's mustache. "Please don't ever grow a mustache."

"Disgusting." I hear Ross mumble to Tati. "They're really disgusting."

"You don't understand love, Rossy," she says. And in an instant, Tatianna becomes one of my most favorite people. Ross cringes and stares at Tati in surprise.

"Where'd you learn the nickname?"

"Column," she tells him quietly, as if we can't hear. "He calls you Rossy behind your back all the time."

"Calum, I'm going to beat you up," Ross threatens Cal.

"Your biceps are no match for mine, Lynch." Calum shakes his head as he draws the outline of a dick on my cheek.

By the end of the video, I'm a rainbow with a unibrow, mustache, and a dick on my face. Calum took time to use most of my eyeshadow as colors to color in my face. He also scribbled his signature on my forehead.

Reasons why you shouldn't let Calum Hood do your makeup: He sucks.

Tatianna looks better than I do. Her makeup's all put in the right place and she thanks Ross. Her blonde hair is let down and I roll my eyes. She manages to look nice even with tomato red blush on her cheekbones.

Reasons why you should let Ross Lynch do your makeup: He's good.

We all turn to the main camera and prepare for my closing sequence. "That was the My Boyfriend Does My Makeup Challenge! It's a tad out of the ordinary for me because I'm no makeup guru, but it's nice for a change sometimes."

Calum rests his head on my right shoulder as he stares into the camera. "And don't forget to like, comment, and share this video! Who do you think won this? Caliv or Rati? Comment your answer down below!" he says excitedly with his chin still on my shoulder.

"My next video will include an Ashton Irwin and Tatianna!" I exclaim. "Bye, guys! See you all soon!"

And then my video is finally over.
