Unexpected Beginnings {Calum Hood & Luke Hemmings}

Chapter Thirteen

*POV's will be changing throughout the chapter so I hope you don't get confused xx *

~Luke's POV~

I hate meetings. I hate mornings. I hate the fact I have to get out of bed at six o'clock in the morning and have to skip a whole day of classes for this damn meeting. I hate that I won't be able to see Scarlet until I get out of this ridiculous rendezvous.

I threw on random (probably dirty) clothes and slipped on one of Calum's beanies and I was sadly, ready to go. "Want some breakfast?" Michael chirped.

"No." I snapped, feeling guilty immediately. "Sorry, I'm just dead tired."

Michael smirked at me for a bit before he spoke, "I think you have been staying out too late with that girlfriend of yours." He joked.

"Okay, I'll remember that whenever you get a girlfriend and stay out late for her." I sighed.

Ashton groggily walked into the room, ready but exhausted. "Tell me again why we have to go to this stupid meeting?" He groaned. We actually don't know why we are having this meeting. They just called us yesterday saying we had to be there at seven o'clock sharp.

Finally, it was time to go to this long, boring, and agitating filled meeting.

We walked into the board room to see it filled with a bunch of board members, our record label, and management stuffed along the room. "Please sit." One of the people of our management sternly spoke.

Seems like someone has their underwear in knot this morning.

I pulled out one of the swiveling chairs and sat down in between Calum and Ashton. "It has come to our attention that your covers were completely blown to the media. You were told that you were allowed to stay here in college unless the media got involved. For some idiotic reason, you blew your covers. So now, you have to go back to the UK and get prepared for the upcoming stadium tour with One Direction."

No no no no. I can't go back to London. "But sir, we were told that under no circumstances that we would leave within the first semester." Michael spoke up.

"You blew your cover. Well not you, but someone decided to take it upon themselves to contact the media and tell them you were here. And there were a bunch of witnesses saying that you were here, so case closed. You will go back to the UK and get ready for the tour." You've got to be kidding me.

"Will one of you explain why you threw away your covers?" One gruffly asked.

None of us dare to speak until we were death-glared by the entire room. "Luke and Calum's girlfriends figured out who we were and they were upset because we didn't tell them. They didn't talk to anyone about our covers being blown. Some girls were telling them it was us so they probably told the media, out of jealousy." Ashton sighed.

"Of course, some stupid girls."

"They aren't stupid. I think this is stupid! Who cares that the media knows we are here?" Calum angrily asked.

"You are supposed to be an upcoming hit band, not some 'regular' uni students. End of discussion, you will be leaving in three days, whether we have to force you or not." He bluntly stated.

Without another word, they all left the room with smug expressions, leaving us all dumbfounded. I threw the wire-mesh basket that was in front of me, and grasped my beanie in between my hands.

What the hell am I going to tell Scarlet?

~Scarlet's POV~

I have no idea where any of the guys are today. When I woke up I had no texts, nor calls. It does make me a bit paranoid that they all aren't here, but I carry on through the day. I went through the lunch line and grabbed my usual lunch and sat at our lunch table with Crescent.
