How To Save A Life (It's just you and me 5SOS fanfic SEQUEL)

Suit & Tie

We all sit cramped on the three seater couch, eyes set on the television screen. 

"Dee, we've been sitting here for an hour when is it -" Michael asks, I cut him off. 

We were waiting for the music video I choreographed to air for the first time on MTV. My hand tightly squeezing Calum's in anticipation, "It'll be on soon Mike, I just don't want to miss it" 

"Can I at least pee real quick? I've been busting for -", Luke puts his hand around Michael's mouth and shakes his head in signal to stop talking. 

I look at the clock above the wall and then the beginning of the song starts. 

"Turn it up, turn it up!" Ashton urges Calum. 

The video starts and I hide my eyes behind Calum's back, "I can't watch it, I can't watch it, I can't watch it" I repeat. 

"DEE IT'S YOU!" Michael stands up and points. 

I remove my head from behind Calum's back, and it was! The whole video, everything we shot that had the fancy costumes and sets, had been cut up and replaced by chunks of video recordings from rehearsal! 

"HEY LOOK IT'S ME TOO!" Calum jumps, "Look it's me in the back eating the cupcake!" 

"I wouldn't expect to see you doing anything else" Adam sarcastically adds, before Calum shoots him a death stare. 

I couldn't believe it. The whole time I thought we were just recording for a behind the scenes video, they actually put that footage in the video that was aired WORLDWIDE! My phone starts buzzing in my back pocket and I see it was a Facetime call coming in from Xavier, I answer the call. 

At first I don't see Xavier's face, but I hear and see everyone else going crazy around my living room back home jumping up and down as they watched the video. I look up from my phone and see the boys doing essentially the exact same thing. The camera flips back onto my dad and Xavier. 

"This is AMAZING honey!" My dad cheers, putting a thumbs up at the camera. 

"YOU'RE ON TV ANDIE, DO YOU NOT REALISE YOU MADE IT ON TV" Max comes into the frame and shouts. 

Calum takes the phone from my hand and celebrates with everyone on the phone, the other boys joining in. I sit staring at the television screen until the final scene of the video fades out. 

"Andie? Helllooo Andie!!! ANDIE!" The boys try to grab my attention. 

Calum comes into my view and snaps his fingers in front of me with the phone in his other hand, I could hear everyone back home still celebrating. 

"Oh. My. God" The words escape from my mouth, "Pinch me or that didn't actually happen" 

Michael pulls out his hand to do so, but Calum swats his hand away and shakes his finger at him, "No touch". 

"I WAS ON TV" I stand up and exclaim. 

"YES YOU WERE DEE!" Xavier shouts from the Facetime call. 

Soon enough we all were screaming and shouting both back home and in this New York loft. We settle the Facetime call and hang up after about another five minutes of jumping around, earning a broom to the roof from the tenants below us yelling to shut us up. 

"Okay how are we celebrating folks?!" Ashton asks.

"Well none of you are of age to drink so I guess that's out of the picture" Adam adds, as we all look at eachother raising our eyebrows at him, "No I am not being illegal and buying minors alcohol". 

"Well technically we aren't minors, in Australia we are fully legal and since we ARE Australian only VISITING America, I think this is in no way illegal" Luke contests. 

"Not a chance mate" Adam says barely looking up from his phone, "But, there is a fancy party that we were just invited to". 

"Ooo suit and tie fancy?" Michael's puns, they'll either make you laugh or want to hit him in the back of the head, and sometimes both! 

"The Jones' Annual Gala, this is the social event of the year for young and upcoming musicians, I'm guessing somebody dropped out last minute and there are five invitations that they've sent" Adam flips his phone around to show us what the past Galas had looked like. 

All that I saw in those pictures was the word glamour, personified. It was the black ties, the shimmery dresses, the whole lot with all the bells and whistles of what you'd imagine a New York Gala to be. How could we pass up the opportunity? 

"Only five?" Ashton asks, "That means someone has to stay home" 

"You lot should go, besides I wouldn't mind a quiet night in with a big ol' pizza" Adam says, we all look at him with sad look, "Seriously it's fine, and you know that suits are definitely not my thing" 

Now that was true, any event that involved mandatory suits, the man was not there. 

"Are you sure Adam?" I hand him back his phone. 

"Of course! You deserve to enjoy yourself tonight and get all doll'd up or whatever you females call it. You've worked hard to be here and to be on TV nonetheless, go have fun" Adam smiles and gives me a hug. Mind you, Adam also is NOT a hugger. 

"So Andie gets put on TV once, but we tour countries and make albums and we don't get half as great a compliment as you just gave her?" Luke sasses Adam. 

"That's because you all have egos big enough to congratulate yourselves" Adam teases, "I'll accept the invitations now, you lot need to go and find outfits!" 

"Is there something wrong with what we have one now?" Ashton scoffs. 

Adam just shakes his head and laughs, "Go get dressed". 

We all split up into our rooms, Calum and I heading off to ours. As I head over to my side of the closet I feel Cal's hands rest on my hips. He pulls me closer to him and rests his chin on my shoulder. 

"You seem awfully calm and quiet for someone who's first choreographed piece was aired on TV", Calum turns me to face him, "What's up?" 

"Nothing, it's nothing, I'm just stunned. And I'm scared. I'm scared of whether or not the video will be a hit or miss, I'm scared whether the people at NYU will respect it, I'm scared if that is the last job that I'll ever book as a dancer", I say hugging him tightly, resting my head on his chest. 

"It is scary to put yourself out there, but honestly Dee seeing how happy you were working on set, this is what you were meant to do. You are meant to perform, you were made to make people feel joy and comfort with what you do. I will be your biggest fan 'til the day we're both" He takes a breathe, "Dead in the ground ..."

"Cal"

"That came out wrong and weird, but you know what I mean, I believe in you and I believe in what you can do and I believe that you being in that music video is just the beginning" He kisses my forehead. 

"I love you" I stretch my neck forward and kiss his lips, "And I will love you 'til the day we're both dead in the ground" 

He chuckles, "I love you too" He gives me another peck on the lips, "Now ... did you bring that black dress", His hands move a little lower than my hips. 

"Well aren't you a little too handsy" I float my hands over the nape of his neck, my fingertips brushing passed his hair. 

"I can do much more" He winks, his hands grip harder. 

I look into his eyes, as he does mine. Our lips barely touch when he pushes me up against the closet door, his lips meet my neck as his hands grip harder and harder. 

"Hey Cal can I borr-" Michael barges in, "OH MY GOD AGAIN, DID I REALLY? I'M SORRY I'M SORRY" He runs back out of the room and shuts the door. 

Calum drops his forehead to meet mine, "We'll try this again later", He kisses my forehead. 

Thanks for reading! I don't exactly know how I want this story to end (I have a few untied thoughts), so if you guys have any ideas leave them down below! xo
