My hero - Michael Clifford

ch2 - Double Date?

***Michael's POV***

'What's got you all happy?' Calum asked, dropping down next to me on the sofa in the dressing room.

'Nothing,' I shrugged, trying to hide my phone from him.

'Aw are you texting that girl again?' He cooed, trying to get hold of my phone.

'Her name is Jenna how many times have I told you this?' I rolled my eyes, shoving my phone into my pocket.

'Erm like twice. What you two chatting about?' He asked, a smirk forming on his face.

'Just stuff,' I replied, getting to my feet.

'Oooooh,' he laughed, causing me to flip him off before I left in search of food.

My phone buzzed in my pocket, alerting me to a new message. I smiled upon making the discovery that it was from Jenna, and quickly fired off a reply to her question.

***Jenna's POV***

'I'm so scared!' I almost cried as Rebecca and I waited outside the restaurant.

'Why?' She sighed, her famous eye roll making an appearance.

'Because what if he hates me? What if he's late? What if I eat too much and he stops talking to me because I'm fat? What if he thinks this dress makes me look fat? What if he doesn't turn up at all? OH MY GOD WHAT IF HE STANDS ME UP?'

'He won't think or do any of that, Michael is a sweet guy,' Rebecca soothed me.

'Sure yeah,' I folded my arms over my chest.

'Its been ten minutes can we just leave?' I asked shakily fifteen minutes later.

'Five more minutes, you know how bad traffic can be round here, I'm sure he'll show,' Rebecca put her hand on my arm to stop me from moving back in the direction of the bus station to go home.

'I'm so so so sorry we're late! There was some issue with parking then security was like um I don't know if we can let you go so we had to argue with them and then Calum thought he forgot his phone but he didn't and so we had to run around for that then we got the wrong road but we're here now... Hey why do you look like you're about to cry?' Michael blurted out as he ran up to us just before we were about to walk away.

'She thought you stood her up. Hi I'm Rebecca by the way.'

'Nice to meet you, I'm Michael. I would never stand you up I promise,' he smiled, focused on me.

'Since he won't do it, I'm Calum, nice to meet you guys,' Calum piped up from next to Michael.

'Hi Calum,' Rebecca smiled at him, diving into a conversation.

'Hi,' Michael smiled shyly at me.

'Hey,' I smiled back.

'Do you wanna get some food?' He asked gesturing to indicate to restaurant we were stood outside of.

'Maybe this time a handsome stranger won't have to rescue me,' I joked as we entered the restaurant.

'I would always save you, pretty lady,' he grinned.

'Pass me a bucket?' Calum groaned causing Rebecca to giggle waaaay too much.

'Wow you're hilarious I'm glad I brought you,' Michael scowled.

'He's only jealous of how amazingly smooth you are,' I grinned up at him.

'Aw you think I'm smooth?' He raised his eyebrows.

'Of course she doesn't, you're the worst flirt ever, you're so lucky you're hot let's be honest Mikey!' Calum wrapped an arm round the both of us.
