Always you - Remington Leith

8

"Dude, what the fuck was that? ", Elle squeaked quietly, coming closer so no one could hear.

"Go ask Emerson, it was his brilliant idea", I shrugged and she gaped at me.

"Mia, did you see the way he was looking at you? Did you see his hands?", she grabbed my shoulders and practically shook my entire body.

"Don't make it into something it's clearly not"

"You like him don't you?"

I gave her a weird look and chose to ignore the question, getting the vodka out of the cupboard and some things to mix with it. Elle snatched the bottle out of my hands and placed it on the counter, arms firmly across her chest.

I sighed,"I don't like him, I just want us to be civil"

"You're such a liar. Do you think I didn't notice his little shift and your stupid ass blush from where I was sitting?"

"Oh god, you saw that?", I cringed and hid my face in my hands.

Suddenly a throat clearing behind us made us both jump and turn around frantically, only to see Sebastian leaning against the door frame with a stupid smirk on his face.

"How much did you hear?", Elle glared.

"Enough", He replied walking over to the counter and grabbing the bottle of alcohol, "You were taking too long so I came to check on you, don't worry, your secrets safe with me"

Seb winked and walked out of the kitchen with some of the stuff while we stared at eachother in shock.

"I can't believe he heard that shit"

"Yeah it's because you don't know what the fuck whispering is", I replied sarcastically, earning a glare and a punch from Elle.

We decided on getting a few beers out of the fridge, along with vodka and a few different cartons of juice so people could pour whatever they wanted.

After we were finished with the drinks, Daniel decided that we should all watch a horror movie, because why not?

I can't stand horror movies, especially when things just seem that bit too realistic. Like come on, have you seen paranormal activity? Even that scared me to death when my brother forced me to go watch it with him at the movies.

Everyone shared weird glances between eachother, like we all knew my brother was a weirdo for loving horror movies, but we all gave in and huddled around the couch. I decided to sit in the corner of the couch, Elle placing herself next to me and some of the boys sitting on bean bags on the floor. Although we were beginning to watch 'The Conjuring' (which I had never seen before), the atmosphere was warm and we all felt like a big family, which ofcourse beat any of the days where we'd just argue and annoy each other.

About half way through the movie (and half way through shitting myself), I noticed remington a few feet away from me on one of the bean bags. He didn't look very amused, taking out his phone a few times throughout the movie. Because he was sitting lower down, I could see exactly what he was doing on his phone, but I tried not to make it too obvious whenever I did look.

He flicked through instagram and twitter a few times in boredom, but this time I noticed a message pop up at the top of his screen. I couldn't see what was on the messages because I wasn't close enough, but I could see the name at the top.

"Lauren <3"

Who's Lauren? And why did I have a weird feeling in my stomach when I saw him chuckle lightly as he began typing back to whatever she put?

He locked his phone, scratching the back of his neck with a small smile still on his face. I didn't even notice I was staring until I felt Elle nudge me and give me that "are you alright" look. I nodded and tried to shake off the weird feeling, glancing at Remington one more time as I caught him watching the interaction between Elle and I.

Embarrassed, I returned my gaze to the screen just as a jump scare was coming up and everyone seemed to tense up in the room, almost like we were all trying not to squeel like a little girl.

Just then, I felt my phone buzz in my hand and I unlocked it to see I had a message from an unknown number.

Hey, how have you been?

Sorry, who is this?

Omg I'm sorry, it's Adam. From the cafe :)

I smiled, completely forgetting about what happened just a few hours ago.

Omg hi :) I'm good how are you?

I'm great thanks, just wanted to check up and make sure that you were still feeling okay after what happened

I smiled again, thinking it was really cute that he wanted to check up on me. Just as I was about to respond, I caught Remington staring at me with a weird look on his face. The smile from my face dropped and I looked back at my phone, ignoring Remis glares and going back to messaging my new friend. It was going surprising well, we joked around and asked eachother random questions, and I even told him about the new job I'm taking on with the boys which he thought was really cool. I really liked the vibe I was getting off him, and come on, who wouldn't want a tall, handsome, funny guy to give them attention?

Just as he movie finished, I locked my phone and began to get comfortable. It was around 11:30pm but we had to get up early to get all our stuff into the tour bus and head for the location of the first show.

Everyone kind of had the same idea, Elle was snuggling into the other side of the couch, and the boys were making themselves comfortable with all the blankets and pillows.

"Night guys", I said with a yawn, which was followed by a bunch of unsynchronised "goodnight"s and shuffling around the room in the pitch black.

Within 10 minutes, I was out cold.
