The Only Reason | 5sos

39 - Laser Tag

~Maya's POV~

I get home and Calum's at the door.

"Do you know where Dahlia went?"

"I thought she was with you..."

Hailey walks up.

"She was supposed to be with Hailey..."

"Who?"

"Dahlia."

"If she's not with any of us. Where IS she?" I ask as I open the door.

Calum's face saddens, "Maybe the person is hurting her again..."

"I don't know."

Hailey seems confused.

Looking at Calum I say, "Shes fine."

"Why would she lie to us though?"

"Maybe she's worried about you and Maya?"

Dahlia walks in. Well then.

******

"Hailey?" Ashton walks in.

"I'm assuming, you are the drummer in 5sos," She says even though they've already met.

He laughs at her.

"Well you are..."

Ashton gives her an awkward look, "Well. Hi."

"Hey..." She eyes his arms, "You look strong."

"Thank you?"

"Do you lift?"

He looks uncomfortable but slightly proud, "Yeah, yeah a bit."

She smiles, "All good drummers do."

He grins, "So I assume you do?"

Her face becomes a giant grin, "Are you assuming I'm a good drummer?"

"Well, if Dahlia and Maya say you are."

"Well yes. I do lift. But only a little."

"Nice," he laughs.

"Well. Can your muscular arms do me a favour?"

"Probably, what is it?"

"Well I have this drum kit outside..."

"No problem, show me where you have it," he smiles at her as she gestures for him to follow her.

After they are outside I say, "Well that was very interesting."

"Yeah... It definitely was," Dahlia giggles.

"Do you think she... She can't."

"No way."

"No."

Calum giggles at India trying to walk by the couch.

I look back at Dahlia, "Ashton is too giggly for her... Though his giggle is adorable."

Calum suddenly speaks up, "AREN'T YOU SUPPOSED TO BE IN LOVE WITH LUKE?"

I laugh, "I am in love with Luke. Ashton's giggle is just really cute. I'm not deaf."

"Yes! It's so adorable!" Dahlia drags out the 'so' to tease Calum.

"See!"

Calum glares.

"Are you jealous of Ashton?"

"No," he folds his arms.

"Mmhm. Suuuure," I say sarcastically.
