Luke's POV

Shit. Now Haley thinks I want to kiss her. But I don't. I just didn't know what else to sing to her. I mean, I guess I wouldn't mind kissing her, but that's not the point.

I put my guitar down and follow Haley downstairs. By the time I get to the living room, she's already sitting on the couch. She smirks when she sees me, and Michael notices.

"What's going on between you guys?" He asks and playfully wiggles his eyebrows at me.

"Luke wants to kiss me." Haley states.

Michael and Calum, who is also in the room, look at me wide-eyed.

"What?! No!" I try to defend myself.

"I'm pretty sure she's not looking for another boyfriend already." Michael mocks me with my own words from earlier.

"Oh my god. I don't want to kiss her, and I don't want to be her boyfriend." I say, annoyed.

"You seem a little too upset about this. Are you sure you don't want to kiss her?" Calum questions.

I roll my eyes and go back up to my room.

Haley's POV

Luke goes back upstairs and I smile in satisfaction and put my feet up on the table. I glance up at Michael and Calum and they're both looking at me funny.

"What?" I ask.

"Do you like him?" Calum asks me.

"What? No. We were just joking around." I tell him.

Just then, Ashton comes downstairs. I forgot he was up there.

"What's up with Luke? He seems pissed." He asks.

"He's mad at us because we were joking around saying he wants to kiss Haley." Michael says.

"Well, he was singing Kiss Me Kiss Me to her." Ashton states.

"He was?!" Michael yells.

"Yeah? You didn't hear him?" Ashton asks.

"I heard the guitar, but... OMG!! Haley! He never sings for anyone. Ever." Michael informs me. "He probably likes you. He has to. Especially if he sang for you."

I ignore the fact that he just said "omg" instead of oh my god, and instead focus on what we're actually talking about here.

"There's no way he likes me, we just met." I blatantly say.

"Yeah, but he's letting you stay here, you guys slept in the same room together last night, and he sang to you." Calum chimes in. "Plus he gave you pizza. You don't do that unless you like someone."

"Whatever. He doesn't like me."

"Well what about you? Do you like him?" Ashton asks.

"No! I just went over this with Calum. And again, we just met. Besides, I'm not over Jeremy, even if he is a dick." I tell the guys.

Calum and Ashton just nod, and Michael walks into the kitchen.

Great. Now I'm thinking of Jeremy again. I'm still just in shock that he was with another girl. Who even was that? How did they meet? How long have they been seeing each other? Ugh. Was I not good enough for Jeremy? I always tried my best to please him, always tried my best to make him happy. I guess I didn't try hard enough.

I feel tears welling up in my eyes, but I don't want any of the guys to see me like this. I don't have anywhere to go for privacy, so I decide I should just go for a drive and listen to some music or something.
