Cant Wait Another Day || M.C.

Part 10

"Is Johnny cool that you're over here?" Calum asks, I notice his voice has a slight hint of nervousness, which makes me laugh.

"You know he only gets enjoyment out of the fact that you guys are a little bit scared of him, right? And yeah he's cool with it. Even if he weren't cool with it I'd be over here. He doesn't own me."

"I feel like he's just... very protective of his... things." Michael speaks up and I roll my eyes.

"He seriously only does that because he wants you guys to 'learn your place'. It's really nothing to take seriously. It's a character flaw of Johnny's; he's this... alpha male figure that doesn't know any better? I don't know, I love him so... what can you do?" I say, trying my best to explain.

"Why do you love him?" A new voice asks, Ashton's, as he emerges from the hallway into the room with a notebook and paper. Luke follows close behind.

"I feel like I've been asked this before..." I say, looking over at Michael. He just smiles back.

"I feel like... None of us have ever witnessed or experienced anything close to what you and Johnny have." Calum says and the guys nod in agreement. "I'm just kind of curious, what's it like." He asks and I sigh. I think before I can put it into words.

"It's like... have you guys ever done drugs?" I ask and they look at me a little taken aback.

"Like... weed?" Calum asks and I shake my head, laughing lightly.

"Not exactly, and that was the best analogy I had. Ok just roll with me, you've seen like... intervention, right?" I ask and they all light up.

"We love that show." Luke says, a grave tone in his voice. The rest of us laugh.

"Who doesn't?" I say, and then continue with my original train of thought. "Ok anyway, well you know how the addicts just want another fix? It's like... I don't care how much you have. I just want more? That's kind of what it's like to be in love with Johnny. No matter how much of himself he gives to me, I want more. No matter how much I give to him, he wants more. We are completely addicted to each other. If I could breathe him in, I would. I just... want him. He's one thing that I could never want to quit." I tell them in the best words I can to explain.

"I have to go." Michael says, abruptly getting up off the couch he was sitting at. "Calum come with." He says and Calum gets up as well, looking confused. They both walk out of the room without another word.

"Did I say something wrong?" I ask Ash and Luke, confused.

"I don't think so?" Luke says, seeming just ask confused as I was. Ash just shrugs.

"Okay... well... maybe I should get going?" I say, getting up as well. I felt uncomfortable after Michael abruptly left.

"No you're fine! Stay!" Luke says, handing me the guitar controller to their Rock band set. "See if you can beat me!" He says and I laugh, taking the guitar from him.

"You're on." I say as Ashton sits behind the play drums.

"I hope you're an expert." Luke says and the music starts playing.

Hours later I had beat Luke at least a million times. We were all laughing hysterically when Michael and Calum finally emerged back into the room. Michael had a guitar in one hand, and a notebook tucked under his arm. Both of the boys looked a little frazzled.

"Sheena! I'm glad you're still here!" Michael said and I looked at him a bit confused.

"Yeah... where'd you go?" I ask and he lifts up his guitar.

"Listen to this, let us know what you think. Luke come here." He says and luke walks over as told. He sits down next to him, staring at the notebook. Michael plays a few notes on his guitar. I now understand that Michael and Calum had left to write a song. I ease up, and lean back in the couch I was on to relax and wait to hear what they had come up with.

"Okay, good?" Michael asks Luke and Luke nods. Michael starts to play his acoustic guitar and moments later, Luke starts singing.

I'll take what you've got, got, got,

Know it's not a lot, lot, lot,

I just need another hit

You're the thing that I can't quit

Hate it when you're gone, gone, gone

If you told me that we were through

You know that I'd break the truce

I want to breathe you in like a vapor

I want to be the one you remember

I want to feel your love like the weather

All over me all over me

My jaw was on the floor as Michael stops playing and Luke stops singing. The song wasn't even finished and still it was a damn good pop song. They did that in just a couple hours? It was in that moment that I realized just how good these kids were, and to have my words be inspiration for them was really flattering.

"How'd we do?" Calum asks, eager to hear my critique.

"It was really, really good." I tell them and the three of them beam.

"Did we get how you feel right? Kind of?" Michael asks and I nod.

"Yeah, I mean... I could never have put it into a song like that. That was amazing! Jesus..." I say, still amazed by their song. The guys start talking amongst themselves, making notes about the song, when my phone goes off. I noticed the caller ID says it's Johnny, so I excuse myself from the room and walk out into the hallway as I pick it up.

"Hey Johnny!" I say, and he hums happily in response. He must've just woken up.

"Hello, love. Are you coming home soon? I'd like to see your face today." He says and I smile into the phone.

"Yeah, I'll probably leave now. Did you have a good day off?"

"Oh yeah, I slept all day. It would have been perfect had you been here with me, but I still cant complain. Did you have fun with the boys?" He asks and I laugh lightly.

"Oh yeah, we played a bunch of Rock Band and I helped them out with a song. It was a good time. They're good guys. I think we'll have fun with them when we're on tour." I tell Johnny and he laughs, able to hear in my voice that I'm happy.

"Good, love. I'm happy you're happy. It's been a stressful month. I know you've been sick of me." He says and I scoff.

"I couldn't be sick of you if I tried. Trust me, I've tried." I tell him and he laughs.

"I'm going to put dinner on. I'll see you soon?"

"Yeah, definitely. See you soon!" I say.

"Bye, love." I hear in response and we both hang up the phone. I walk into the 5sos boy's game room and do my best to get their attention. They're now all running around the room a bit. For some reason Luke's pants are off. I blink a bit in confusion before they finally notice my presence in the room again.

"Guys, I'm going to get out of here. Have dinner with Johnny." I say and they all smile and nod in agreement. Michael comes over first to hug me good-bye, then Calum, Ash. Luke tries to hug me and I refuse.

"Not when you have no pants on." I say, holding my arm out. His smile drops, but he shrugs, understanding. The rest of the guys laugh and I turn around to leave.

"Bye guys!" I shout before I exit the house andstart my journey home after what I have to say was a very necessary day off.
