Happily

Chapter 4

As we walk in, I am taken aback at how many people are here. I see so many of my favourite authors and actors its almost unreal. TJ and I subconsciously slide next to each other to try and escape the staring eyes of celebrities. We walk with our arms touching all the way through the crowds. We find our group and the quickly realise how close we are which results in a chorus of "awww"s which makes us blush, making them "awww" again. Just in time to save us from further embarrassment, we hear someone up on stage and someone starts speaking.

"Hallo everyone! We're 5 Seconds of Summer and we want to thank you all for coming and to welcome our three winners!!"

It seems as though everyone looks our way. Hayden and Zeke light up and wave and I swear I heard Taylor Swift say something like "those guys are a cute couple!" Hayden takes my hand and pulls me closer to hear and waves me hand around to the crowd.

"This song is for the winners!!" Ashton screams and their song starts playing.

"It started on a weekend in may. I was looking for attention needed intervention." Michael starts and everyone starts socialising and listening to the music.

Tanner, patch, Zac, and Ammon said they were going to do something and that they'd be right back and Hayden and Zeke wanted to hang out by themselves for a little bit so they ran off, leaving TJ and I together. Alone. I knew they were up to something and I could tell it was going to be an awkward process.

Someone touched my shoulder causing me to jump and when I looked to see who it was, TJ was standing right behind me.

"Do you want to get out of here?" he asked.

I was too nervous to say anything so I just nodded and we were off. I had no idea where we were going but I hoped it wasn't a too casual place considering what I was wearing.

"Where do you want to go?" he asked.

"Um. How about the park? We could just hang out there." Wow. That was the longest conversation we've ever had.

"Okay that sounds good."

We get to the park and find a spot under the moon and the stars an sit down. It is really beautiful. And kind of... Romantic. I lay back on the grass but something was already there. Sit up and look at what it was. TJ's arm.

"S-sorry." I stammer.

"It's fine. I really didn't mind. At all."

"Okay." I say lying back down. This time, staying on his arm. We sit there in silence for a while when he speaks.

"Can I ask you something?"

"Yeah sure."

"Why are you so shy? I mean I know a few shy people but you're the shyest person I know."

I pause. Thinking.

"I'm sorry that's kind of a personal question." He adds when I don't answer.

"No it's fine. It's just, no ones ever asked me that so I was thinking about it. I just don't like to get attached to people all that much lately because I've recently lost some people I really care about so I figure that if I don't really know them, it won't hurt as bad when they have to leave."

Sorry it's not very long! I've got loads of homework:/
