Luke
Calum and Kira are acting kind of different. Well, I wouldn't really call it different since they do all the same things. Kira lies her head down on his lap, Calum running one hand through her hair. They hug for way longer than I think they should. Kira often kisses his cheek and he always shoves her away slightly, calling her gross but for some reason this all feels. Different. I can't quite tell why I think that though.

"Hey babe, where you been?" I ask as I watch Kira rush into the dressing room with a wide smile on her face.

"Oh uh, hi Luke." She says with a bit of surprise. "We were uhhh..." Calum walks in behind her and comes to sit on the couch next to me, grabbing a water bottle on his way over.

"We went to get frozen yogurt." Calum said airily, uncapping the bottle and bringing it to his lips. Kira blushed and nodded.

"Aw babe, without me?" I joked slightly.

"Sorry babe." Kira said sheepishly. "We couldn't find you and I was hungry." She walked forward and kissed my cheek. "I'll remember next time." Calum kicked her leg lightly and she flipped him off. Calum laughed and Kira rolled her eyes as she goes to get a bag of chips from the pile on Michael's table. He's always hoarding snacks to eat throughout the day because he always gets randomly hungry.

"Excited for the show tonight?" Calum asks me. I shrug.

"As excited as I am for every other show we do."

"That's mean." Kira says. "You're only excited for half of the shows on this tour?" She says with a grin, sitting down on the couch across from us. Calum snickers.

"Maybe. It does get repetitive singing the same songs over and over." I said with a smile.

"That's why you gotta just randomly change the set. You all play your own instruments. You can switch out a song each night to keep things fresh." Kira says and it's not that bad of an idea actually. "Or you could change one song to acoustic. You're playing Lie To Me and that sounds absolutely divine as an acoustic song." She's not wrong about that either.

"This is why we keep you around Kira." Calum says. "You have good ideas." Kira smiles.

"That and because I'm just the prettiest thing ever." She says, flipping her dark hair over her shoulder with a laugh.

"Yes you are." I say with a smile but she's not looking at me, she's looking at Calum and he's looking at her too.

"You're just going to go to bed?" Kira asks with a small frown. I shrug.

"What do you want to do Kira? It's late and I'm tired." Kira sighs and shrugs. She's still in her clothes from today and I've already showered and changed into my nightclothes.

"Nothing." She says with another sigh, tapping away at her phone. I assume she's texting Calum or someone. "I'm going to watch TV." She tells me, getting up and going into the next room, sliding the door closed behind her. My shoulders fell a little. Lately, she hasn't been going to sleep at the same time as me. I've always felt more at ease falling asleep next to her, holding her in my arms. She's just so warm and comforting and I miss that. But if she's no tired I can't force her to sleep.

I turn off the light and get under the covers of the king size bed which feels even bigger without Kira in it. I don't know what's gotten into her but she seems distant or at least indifferent of me. I guess that comes with being in relationship with someone for so long. We've spent a lot of time together but never this constantly. We've been around each other constantly for almost a month and a half now. I guess we're bound to get a little bored.
