Over and Over

Chapter 8

(Holly's P.O.V)

it was almost 9PM and I'm not sure if anybody noticed, but I was a little bit drunk. Well there's drinks here and no restrictions, who can blame me? My mind were all over the place. I sat on Emily's lap as there weren't any space for my petite body anywhere! Even the guys didn't offer me a seat. And they call themselves 'Men'. I'm pretty sure she hates me because she's been moaning about my weight on her for ages now. She did offer!

"I ain't moving until I nessessarily have to!" I said sternly. The boys were laughing at us. We are so weird. She rested her face on me and I think she fell asleep. Great! I turned to face her and poked her a million times.

"Kiwi at 9'O Clock." Her eyes shot open and we stared at Calum walking towards us. He seemed so confused. Poor him. I could feel Emily stabbing daggers into my spine from behind as her face flushed, hot red. Poor her. I only warned her.

"Holly! That's enough. Your time to shine!" Ashton said, taking away my drink. I jumped off Emily's lap and she let out the longest relieved sigh.

"Your such a bulldozer! But you're so cute!" We laughed togther at my stupidity.

If a stranger walked in and looked for the victim of this tragedy, they wouldn't find me. They wouldn't even notice me. I'm glad though. I don't want to be seen as the sad sack mopping around.

(Emily's P.O.V)

No. Please don't leave me....She's gone. This is so awkward. I hated being left on my own. Damn you Holly! I fiddled with thin metal chain which dropped from my wrist. Calum took Ashton's empty seat. Butterflies increased inside my stomach. My cheeks becoming stiffer and I think also a little red. I hope my blusher becomes an excuse for it.

"You... er... look cute when you sleep." Calum whispered. He looked directly at me as I stared at Ashton help Holly set up her stage. I could feel his breath on my face, I could see his pinky lips from the corner of my eye. A gulp travelled to my throat. What do I say? My eyes widened a little and I don't think I could speak anyways. He saw me nap on Holly. Damn! WHY? My cheeks were becoming red hot this time, I couldn't stop smiling. Calum why are you doing this to me? Sometimes I wish I never liked him. It would be so much easier to talk to him atleast. Words wouldn't even come out my mouth. This is the most awkwardest moment of my entire life.

"Thanks, I guess." Yes! Words! Covers up the awkwardness... I think.

Holly scuffled through a bundle of her audience and jumped on top of my lap. "You know how much you love me?" She sang.

"No."

"Well I do! A lot!"

"What do you want?"

"I came out here out of pure love and affection. Why do you always assume I want something?" I gave her the 'Shut up and tell me' look. "Okay, I need you to do one tiny favour for me? Please?"

"Which is?" I could feel Calum listening into our conversation. Smirking. Tingles were running through my spine. Holly shouldn't know. She'd take the piss out of me forever!

"I can't sing on my own. I'm begging you, help?" She joined her hands together and gave me the puppy dog eyes.

"Oh, I don't know?" I said putting my head, trying not to laugh at her.

"Go on Em!"

"Thank you Calum! Please?"

"Oh okay."

"Yes! I love you!" She hugged me tight and almost even kissed me. She wouldn't have done that anyways, but anything to make her happy. She's going through a rough time. We could all tell she's breaking down behind her smile, yet she smiled.
