Spaces Between Us | A.I.

38.

- POV Calum -

Lili is here for half an hour now and I still am surprised she's here. Everyone is. Ashton is holding Lili and you can see how happy he is. "Hey guys," our manager says while walking in. Everyone looks at him so he continues talking. "You guys should go back to the bus. Most fans are gone so you can leave."

So 15 minutes later we all were ready to go and walked towards the bus. There were still fans outside so we had security around us and Ashton was making sure Lili was near him and safe.

We walked outside and within a few seconds fans started to scream. They run up to us and I shared a look with Luke. "Should we stop for a while?" He asks me.
"Uh... I guess so," I say. So we stopped and focussed on fans.
Soon Michael and Ashton tuned in and we took a few pictures with some fans before leaving again.

When we got to the bus I claimed the shower and just showered. I walk into the main area and notice Luke is gone. And so is Lili. "Where are Luke and Lili?" I ask while sitting down next to Ashton.
He looks up from his phone, "they are talking outside the van." He gets up and walks away while saying he is going to shower.

Michael throws a pillow and me and it hits me in the face. I look at him and throw it back. "Hey!" He says.
"You threw it 1st," I say and chuckle.
"Because I wanted to ask you something."
I sigh, "You could just say my name, you know? My name is Calum and play bass in 5 seconds o-" A pillow hits me again.
I throw it back and so we have a small pillow fight.

Luke and Lili walk in again and Lili gives us a confused look. "What's going on in Here?"
"I wanted to ask Calum something but-" Michael starts bit I hit him again. He sighs, "but we started a pillow fight."
"Right," Luke says and he sits down next to me. "Well I hope you guys stop now. I don't want to get hit by a pillow."
I grin and grab a pillow and hit him. He grabs it out of my hands and hits me. I want to grab it back but he hides it from me.

I sigh and just try to grab it but it ends up with us falling on top of each other. My cheeks burn bright red and I get off him. His cheeks are red too. It just became awkward and he just hits me with the pillow.

I notice that everyone is looking at us. I sit up straight and go with one hand through my hair and couch awkwardly when they keep looking at us. They look away and I just sigh softly. Why is this whole thing so awkward?

Luke and I have been friends forever yet things started to change between is and now things sometimes get really awkward. And I feel diffent about him but I don't know. It's not in a bad way, but it's just... I don't know. I can't place it.
