The other boys know you like him

Luke:

"Ashton, truth or dare?" Calum asks Luke.

"Truth."

"Who do you think is the best kisser in this room?" Cal asks.

"(Y/N), she is the only girl here." Ash says simply.

"Aw thanks." I say in mock flattery.

"Alright, (Y/N) truth or dare?" Ashton says.

"Dare." I reply.

"I dare you to kiss the hottest boy in this room." Ashton says with a wink and Mike and Cal quickly grin as they catch on.

"This should be interesting." Cal says.

"So who’s it going to be?" Mike says with a laugh.

"I hate all of you." I say and glare at Ashton.

"C’mon fess up, kiss the best looking lad." Cal says. I take a deep breathe before I lean across and kiss Luke straight on the lips. It takes a second for him to react before his lips move along with mine and I feel his hands reaching for my waist. I am snapped back to reality as I hear the other three applauding us and cheering so I pull away from Luke. He stares at me confused for a second before I see his ever-so-sexy grin appearing on his face and he quickly winks.

"Cal might have you beat for hottest girl in the room." Luke says sarcastically which makes us all laugh.

"Thanks babe." Cal replies which makes us all laugh a little harder.

Ashton:

It was just another movie night with the boys. Blankets littered the floor and there was food everywhere. Mike popped in a scary movie and Ashton and I both groaned loudly.

"Again?" Ashton says. "You know I hate these."

"Me too! And you always choose the gorriest, most disgusting horror movies ever." I agree.

"Can we watch a funny movie instead!" Ashton says.

"We will change the movie once you tell Ash that you like him, until then you are stuck with this movie." Luke whispers in my ear.

"You are a terrible friend." I say and glare at him.

"I call Luke as my cuddle buddy." Cal says and plops in between Luke and me.

"No way, I already called him." Mike says and sits on Lukes other side pushing me off the couch.

"Look’s like you got me." Ash says and opens his arms up for me so I scoot over to him and rest my head on his shoulder. The movie starts and I am already covering my face in Ashton’s shoulder as he rubs my shoulder with his fingers. I feel someone kicking my thigh so I look up to see Luke, Cal, and Mike all pointing at Ash and mouthing ‘Kiss him or something’. I shake my head and mouth back for them to cut it out. After a few more minutes of us going back and forth Mike pauses the movie and I hear Ashton sigh in relief. "Is it over?" He asks.

"No." Mike says.

"Then why’d you stop the movie?" Ashton asks.

"Because Cal, Luke and I need to go make some more popcorn." Mike says and they all get up.

"(Y/N) likes you Ash!" I hear Luke shout before they quickly shut the door and I hear the lock click.

"Did Luke just say you like me?" Ash asks me and I stare back not knowing what to say.

"A little." I say and look away from him for a second. I feel his fingers pushing my chin up as he stares into my eyes.

"I like you a little too." He says before pressing his lips against mine and I feel the butterflies erupting in my stomach.

Calum:

"I’m so bored!" Cal says as he stretches across the couch.

"Well why not play a round of truth or dare then?" Mike suggests.

"I’m up for that." Luke says.

"Let’s start with Cal, truth or dare?" Ashton asks.

"Dare I guess." Cal says.

"We dare you to take (Y/N) into the closet and play 7 minutes in heaven." Mike says with a big grin on his face. I feel my eyes go wide as I shoot them the death glare.

"A dare is a dare." Cal says and we both get up awkwardly and walk into the closet. "We don’t have to do anything if you don’t want to."

"I mean, we could." I say quietly.

"We could what?" He asks and it sounds like his voice is a little closer to me.

"C’mon Cal, is it not obvious? They chose you to come in here with me for a reason." I say and feel my awkwardness coming out.

"Do you like me?" He asks.

"Sort of." I reply and the words barely leave my mouth before I feel his hands on my hips pulling me against him. He puts his lips against mine and I run my hands through his hair as his hands move to my back and pull me firmly against him.

"Why didn’t you just tell me before?" He asks after a minute.

"Because I was nervous you wouldn’t like me back."

"I don’t think that is possible." He says and I go on my tippy-toes again to kiss him once more before leaving the closet.

Michael:

We were all sitting down for a little bit of lunch when I saw a text from Ashton. If you don’t tell him by the end of the day, then we will. I shoot him a glare across the table and shake my head. The other three only grin and wink at me and I immediately realize that if I don’t do it then it will just be extremely awkward.

"Ash, can I talk to you for a second?" I ask and we both get up and walk towards the bathrooms. "I can’t do it and you know that!"

"Yes, you can! Just tell him you like him!" He replies.

"But what if he doesn’t like me back?"

"Would he spend this much time with you if he didn’t?!"

"But Ash!"

"No buts! Now just take a deep breathe and get out there. Do something simple, like just put your hand on his leg or something." He says and I glare at him but we walk back to the table and I sit back down in the seat next to Mike.

"What was that about?" Mike asks me.

"Nothing." I reply way too quickly and he looks at me confused.

"Alrighty then." He says awkwardly and looks back at him menu.

"Tell him." Luke mutters to me while Cal makes a kissy face at me across the table. I take a deep breathe before I slowly put my hand on Mike’s thigh and run my thumb across it. He shoots me a looks of confusion before he starts laughing.

"What’s your hand doing there?" Mike asks me in a whisper but the other three hear him and start laughing. "What’s so funny?"

"You’re such an idiot." Cal says and I glare at him.

"Honestly, do you not see (Y/N) ogling you?" Ashton asks.

"Excuse me!" I reply and yank my hand off his thigh.

"What are you talking about?" Mike asks.

"Look, I’m sorry for doing this (Y/N), but Mike she really likes you and we thought it was pretty obvious but you are completely oblivious to it!" Luke says,

"You like me?" Mike asks and I cover my face with my hands. "I like you too."

"Me?" I asks and lift my head up.

"No the other you." He says sarcastically.

"We’ll get our own table, leave the love birds alone." Cal says.

"You’re welcome." Ash says as they all leave and I just smile at Mike.
