Chapter Nine – “Can’t Help Falling In Love With You”

“Like a river flows surely to the sea. Darling so it goes. Some things are meant to be. Take my hand, take my whole life too. For I can't help falling in love with you…” – Elvis Presley (Performed by Tim Urban on American Idol)

When we calmed Nate down, we headed upstairs. She was still tucked in Max’s side as they sat down on the couch together. The boys took seats next to them. At this point, I didn’t know what to do. These guys were cooperating now. There were no more escape attempts.

“Where are we going to put them?” I asked Samantha. She simply shrugged. “Seriously? You’re the one who came up with this idea so didn’t you have a house set up?”

“Nope,” she replied.

“Great,” I sighed. “Well, I guess we only have one choice. We need to bring them to our apartment.”

“I already told you it was too small Ash,” Nate piped up.

“Like I said, we have no choice. Come on boys, time to move again,” I said, ushering them to the door.

They silently followed me outside to Nate’s car. We loaded them up and began to drive to the apartment. While I drove, Samantha called up the other girls and told them to meet us there. Riley wasn’t coming because he decided he didn’t want anything more to do with this.

The girls were already at the apartment when we arrived. All the guys did was wait for us to tell them what to do.

“Ash what are we going to do about sleeping arrangements?” Lexy wondered.

“I guess we are going to have to share our rooms with them,” I replied.

Hannah’s eyes immediately brightened and she looked at Siva. I couldn’t help but laugh. I could tell she was going to take full advantage of these sleeping arrangements.

“Alright now that that’s settled, what are we going to do?” Hannah wondered.

We all shrugged and I plopped down on the couch. That was when Bella suddenly ran from the room. We watched after her and she returned with my guitar in her hand, grinning.

“Can you guys sing for us?” she asked.

They looked at one another and seemed to silently converse. Then they faced us, nodding. Bella handed Tom the guitar and he began strumming right away. I automatically recognized the song. It was “Glad You Came”. And I nearly died when they began singing. They sounded even better up close and personal! This performance had nothing on the concert!

I watched Tom the entire time. His hands moved fluently on the guitar and he looked so into the song and happy. I found myself smiling. And when his part began, he looked up and began singing right to me. I didn’t shy away. I looked him right in the eyes and took in every minute of it. This would never happen again.

When they finished, we clapped and cheered for them. But I had the sudden urge to impress them. I snatched the guitar up from Tom and began playing my version of “Warzone”. I started singing and soon Nathan was joining me. Then we were all singing together. Instead of us cheering them on at the end, they cheered me on. I couldn’t help but blush and hide my face.

“That was amazing!” Nathan exclaimed.

“Thank you,” I murmured.

“Aww, come on, don’t be shy!” Max exclaimed, reaching over and massaging my ears. “You really were amazing!”

I grinned and looked up at them. Tom was looking right into my eyes.

“You have a beautiful voice,” he told me.

“Thanks,” I giggled.

He was too sweet and I think I was falling for him even more than I already was. God, sometimes my fangirl heart just can’t take all of this. Now that I think about it, I’m glad we kidnapped these boys. We never would’ve gotten to know them like this.

“I’m hungry,” Bella said, ruining the moment.

“Now that I think about it, so am I,” Jay commented, rubbing his stomach.

I jumped up. “Alright, is pizza okay?”

“Good for me.” “Yep.” “I’ve actually been having a craving.” “Yum.” “As long as I can eat it!” “Meatball!” “No, cheese!” “BACON!” Those were the responses that I got from multiple people at the same time.

I rolled my eyes and went to our small kitchen, grabbing the portable phone. I dialed the pizza place and ordered three large pizzas, one cheese, one meatball and one bacon just so I could satisfy everyone.

Thirty minutes later, it arrived and before we knew it, we finished all three boxes. We were such pigs!

“Now what?” Siva asked, patting his bloated stomach.

“Liquor!” Nate screamed and ran into the kitchen.

She returned with a bunch of red cups, two bottles of vodka, and some soda.

“Hell yes!” Tom cheered, laughing. He turned to his friends. “I like these people!”

Oh god. This was going to get crazy…Now we would see what The Wanted were like drunk. Lord please help me on this night.

Things are getting cozy with Nate and Max, huh?

What do you think is going on with Ashlee and Tom?

Utoh! What do you think is going to happen with the liquor?

Sorry for it being so short, but I need to save the good stuff for the next chapter!

Hate? Like? Love?
