It's the last day of school before christmas break, and I'm so excited to leave school. When the final bell rings i literally sprint out of the building. "Hey, wait up Sky, I've got a few people I want you to meet before you leave!" I hear Calum call out to me. I roll my eyes, and turn around, while crossing my arms. Calum, and the three other suspicious bandmates walk towards me. Fuck him!He knows I dont like meeting new people! It's too late to turn around, and walk away, I've already acknowledged him, and Calum and the guys are literlally a few steps away from me. Great, just how i want to start off my winter break. 

"Sky, I want  you to meet Ashton, Michael, and Luke." says Calum. "Hey, why'd you say my name last, i thought you loved me!" Says the tall. blonde named Luke. I can tell he and Calum have a bromance. I just stand there awkwardly, and wave, and mutter a "hey". The boy with blonde hair, with a brown stripe, points at my shirt and smiles."Nice shirt. The 1975 right?" he asks, before smiling cutley at me. "Yeah, I'm obsessed with them, they are so good!"I say immmediatley leaving shy me behind in the dust. Michael agrees, and the rest of the boys join in our conversation. "Hey, we should all go to Macca's!" reccomends Ashton. We all nod in agreement, and start to walk across the school parking lot, still talking about different bands. As we all talk, i glance at all of the boys, and when i see them all their together they do actually look like a band. Each band mate has their own personality, their own look. They actually look cool. Maybe, Calum was telling the truth.

* "So- Skylar, Calum talks alot about you... are you two dating or something?" asks Luke, while we sit down in a booth at the local Mcdonalds. The rest of the boys are all ordering their food. I look down at my hands, and quickly mutter a "no". "Really? From the way he looks when he speaks about you, you would think you two are." he exclaims. I blush. I dont tell him that we did, or the reason why we arent anymore.I mean Luke is sweet and all, but I dont really open up to people I just met. Calum taught me that lesson. 

Around 5 minutes later, the boys are all back, and stuffing their faces with their big macs. I take a few sips of Ashton's Sprite, and eat a few of my chicken nuggets. I'm not reallly hungry. The boys talk about an upcoming gig of theirs, and they ask me if I can come. I cant think of a good excuse on the spot, so I agree to show up. It's not like I have anything to do during winter break. You know, besides read, hear my parents fight, and watch anime, and one direction interviews on youtube. And I dont really have anything against any of the 5sos boys, except for Calum. If i held any grudge against any of them before it was gone. They didnt seem like they would make the bet up. They were all so nice,and adorable.Ashton with his dimples, and shy Luke, and down to earth Michael. The only person I had a bit of a grudge against was Calum, because he was apart of the bet. But even my harsh feelings towards him were starting to fade away.What's wrong with me?
