Destiny

Chapter 15

Ruby's POV

Me and the other boys made our way over to the train station to meet up with Beau and Danni. We caught them coming outside together with huge grins covering their faces, we already knew it was a yes to her going.

"We're going to Germany baby!" Danni shouted, throwing her hands into the air with a huge grin across her face. Daniel took Danni and Beau into a group hug, making some strange cheering noise, then Luke, Jai and James joined in. I smiled, I was happy for them, but inside I couldn't help but feel jealous.

"Anyone fancy a Starbucks?" I asked after they had all calmed down from their excitement. They all nodded and we headed down the road towards the cafe, I led forwards a bit on my own. I pushed open the glass doors and we spilled into Starbucks, grabbing the nearby table that had 7 chairs scattered around it.

"What does everyone want?" I asked with a small smile on my face as I scanned their faces. They each gave me their orders and I headed to the counter, feeling a bit left out of the group. Luke sneaked up on me as I joined the queue, wrapping his arms around my waist and making me feel a bit better.

"You alright?" He asked, standing beside me as we waited in line.

"I guess so, just feeling a bit down." I replied honestly. He put his hand on my shoulder, giving me a pitiful smile.

"When do you want to tell the others?" He asked as we waited at the counter to be served.

"Do they even know that you've invited me? And today I guess." I replied with a sigh. The waiter behind the counter served us and I have him the 7 orders, somehow remembering them all.

"Yeah they would've loved for you to come." Luke said, continuing the conversation.

"I'm sure you'll have a great time anyway, you'll probably forget who I am by the time you're back." I laughed, wishing I hadn't said it as the thought made me feel even worse.

"Don't be stupid." He replied, putting his hand on my neck as he smiled at me. We collected the drinks on two different trays and took them back to the table, sitting down with the others.

"Have you asked yet?" Beau said, looking from me to Luke.

"Yeah," Luke began but was interrupted by Jai and Danni.

"PLEASE COME!" They shouted, making me laugh as other people in the cafe cluelessly stared at us.

I shook my head, looking down at my drink and back to them. "I can't. It's my birthday on Thursday and I'm having a big party since it's my 18th. I can't cancel it now." I said, seeing Danni's face drop from the corner of my eye as I mentioned the party.

"But-" James started before I interrupted him.

"But, I want you to have a good time so stop looking so sorry for me." I falsely laughed, trying to make the situation a little lighter. They all smiled.

"Why don't you just come for the second week? After your party?" Daniel said, actually having a good idea for the first time.

"Actually that's a good idea." I chuckled as he grinned at me. "I guess I can ask when I get home, I'll have a week to persuade my parents." I laughed as they all cheered.

"Well we have another announcement, me and Danni are thinking about telling the fans about us. We're going to do a twitcam tonight if anyone wants to join?" Beau announced.

"Sure, I guess we could too if you're up to it?" Luke asked me as he put his hand onto my thigh, smiling and nodded back to him.

We left Starbucks, trailing around town for a while before going back to the hotel for our last night. It was about 6:30pm by the time we got home and Beau sent out a tweet telling the fans about the twitcam in half an hour.

We all get ready and set up the laptop, before we knew it it was 7pm and we were still waiting for Luke to perfect his hair. "Hurry up," Jai exclaimed, pulling Luke down to the bed we were all piled on.

The twitcam went live, I stayed out of it for a while with the other four boys as Beau and Danni sat together making their announcement. "Hi guys, this is Danni, my new girlfriend." Beau announced, squeezing Danni's hand that he held tightly.

Danni gave a small wave to the twitcam, making Beau chuckle. I couldn't imagine the kind of tweets that must've been coming through at the minute. "I hope you'll all be as happy for me as I am." Beau said cutely, making us all 'aw' sarcastically at them.

"PILE ON!" James screamed, jumping onto Beau's back, sending him crashing onto Danni. I couldn't help but burst out laughing. Jai jumped on next, trying to make sure the laptop didn't fall off the bed. Then Luke piled on, pulling me with him and then of course Daniel jumped on, squashing us all to death.

We all fell off the bed in fits of laughter, almost forgetting there was a twitcam on. We climbed back onto the bed, wiping the tears of laughter from our faces and reading through the tweets. They were a combination of hate, admiration, jealousy and "who is that other girl?" making me blush.

"And this is Ruby, my little chicken." Luke announced casually, pulling me onto his lap and nuzzling his mouth into my neck, sending a spine chilling sensation through me.

I read through the tweets, ignoring the hate as it didn't really get to me that much. Most of the tweets were under the lines of "I'm done" and "Ugh" which I thought was reasonable.

After another couple of hours on the twitcam, doing dares, challenges and just having a laugh, we decided to end it and put on a movie. Luke and I snuggled in our usual position, Beau and Danni on Beau's bed beside us and the other boys scattered around the room. I couldn't help but feel a bit low knowing it was my last night I'd be spending with them for at least another week.
