I wish I could think a little more about what I feel. Calum kissing me feels nice, but he pulls apart and says, "Well, we've got to go back to the others, I guess."
I can see that he's blushing, but he's not the only one. We're both smiling and he grabs my hand. "Well, what way do we have to go? We've walked for quite a while."
I shrug, "Probably to the left."
Calum grins and raises his eyebrows. "Come on, to me you're still the lost girl. Do you really think I'm going to follow you?"
I laugh and say, "Well, to the right then."
We walk over to the right, but at one point Calum stops at a big street map and says, "I don't remember seeing this on our walk."
"I knew I was right the first time!" I say and Calum shrugs. "Google Maps knows everything." I say and pull out my phone.
"No, we're going to do this our own. No cheating." Calum grins and grabs the phone from my hand. That makes me roll my eyes at him, but we walk further anyway. At one point I see that we've arrived at the AMSTERDAM letters. "I think it's fair for me to call you Lost Boy now." I grin and pull out my phone. Calum sighs and pulls out his phone too."Hey Luke, we're kind of lost so meet us at the AMSTERDAM letters? Yeah, you can't really miss them, they're big... Or ask Donya, she will know. See you soon." He hangs up and looks at me. "Luke's so dumb sometimes. I hope he can find it." "Donya will help him." I say and climb up on one of the letters. At least I try...
"You suck at this." Calum says, laughing. But he still helps me get up. He, instead, jumps onto one of the letters like he's done this a million times before. I look in the distance, where a couple of children are playing on the skating rink. Their parents sit on a bench near them, and a couple of teenagers are looking at their phones. I wonder if they know Calum Hood is sitting here, just a couple of feet apart them. Maybe they know and just don't care, or they really don't know. And I have to admit, Calum looks like an ordinary good looking guy at the first sight."Probably not," Calum says and I realize I've said the first part out loud, "They're too busy with themselves. And I don't mind."
I share his opinion on that. It feels like Calum is mine for now. And in just a few days he'll be back to being Calum Hood, the celebrity everyone loves. Even though he said he didn't want to lose contact with me, but I'm sure we will. And that's not a good thought.
Apparently my smile starts to fade, because Calum wraps an arm around my shoulder. "Hey, what's on your mind?" he asks and I shrug. I don't really want to talk about it, but Calum does. "I can see it in your eyes. I'm not crazy. Are you afraid that I'll treat you like you're nothing after this?"
I nod. He's right. Calum looks at me and grins. "You're one crazy girl every now and then, you know?" He gives me a kiss on the cheek and jumps off the letters. "Are you insane?" I yell and he laughs. "I'll help you. Just jump, I'll catch you." I hesitate for a moment, but then I drop my overthinking and do what he says. And he catches me, like he promised."Hey, there they are!" Calum says and I look to my left, where Luke and the rest are approaching. "You two are so stupid." Michael says and I chuckle. "Well, what are we going to do now?"
We all shrug and I look at my watch. "Well, it's already five pm, maybe we can go eat something?"When we arrive at a restaurant the waiter immediately recognizes the guys and I sigh. Just as I'm about to angrily sit down on a chair, another waiter comes up to me and grins. "Don't forget to smile, sweetheart." That comment makes me roll my eyes at him and I say, "Shut up. Can I have a water?" "Of course. You can also have a personal waiter for the night." The waiter spins around on his heels and winks at me. But before he even has the opportunity to walk away, Calum comes standing in front of him and he gives him an evil look. "What did you think you were doing?" "Nothing, just talking to this beautiful chick."
That makes Calum even more angry and he yells, "Nobody calls her a chick, understood?" he spits and Luke, Michael and Ashton come standing beside him. "Don't ever try that trick on her again, okay? She's not interested."
I then look behind me and raise an eyebrow at Donya, who's completely dying of laughter sitting there at the table. The waiter walks away and Calum comes sitting next to me. "I'm so pissed off right now, but whatever. No one can flirt with you... except me." I smile at that, and when our food arrives it's already getting late. We've talked a lot, just sitting here in this tiny restaurant. It feels nice."I hate the fact that I have to go home in just an hour." I sigh and Calum does too. "It's a shame that you can't go out with us. We're going to a club tonight."
I shrug and say, "I don't like that anyways."Time flies, and by the time we've said goodbye to all of the guys I feel like I've never been this sad before. "I can't believe it's already over. I liked today so much." I say to my best friend and she nods absentmindedly. "What are you thinking about?" I ask her and she just sighs. "I don't know. Just everything, I guess. My mind still can't really process what has happened." "I wonder if they'll remember us. I mean, they meet so many people, and maybe today didn't mean anything to them."
"That would suck. Because we're just two girls from a small town and to us this is a huge experience. And I can't imagine that they would forget us. I mean, Calum really cares about you. I can see that."
"Do you really think that?" I ask her and she nods. "There's no way he doesn't care." I nod and look out the train window again, until my phone buzzes. "Calum's calling me." I say and click the answer-button.
"Helloooo my beloved Sara, how you? I miss youuuu and I'm so sorryyy lalala!" he yells and I keep my phone away from my phone. "Calum? Are you drunk?" "Well I'm at a club but I think I'm a lost boy. Get my joke?" he laughs. "Calum, stop quoting the songs you've done. You're very drunk." "...Maybe?" he says, "But I have to go, love you! And Luke loves Donya, bye!" And by that being said, the line goes dead. I sigh and put my phone away.
"Okay, that was very weird. Anyways, we have to get out of the train."When we arrive at home I lay down on my bed and fall asleep, thinking about Calum as usual. I really hope he's okay. He's sure got a hangover coming tomorrow...
