calum's pov

michael sure was a funny drunk. the fact that he actually believed for rachel to be this ella character was hysterical.

"ellaaa!" michael whined.

"michael, either you sleep now and have a good day tomorrow, or you feel like complete shit on both days, which do you prefer?" rachel asked.

"fineee!" he whined. "goodnight ashtonio! see you in italy!"

"dream big, mate." ashton laughed. "i'm heading to bed, this one is a fucking nightmare. g'night everyone."

"goodnight ash." both rachel and i said.

"cal, are you staying the night?" rachel asks as she removes her red wig and sunglasses.

"i don't want to impose." i stated.

ashton was fast asleep in his room for sure, and rachel was seated at another office chair where she had fallen asleep over a battery-drained laptop. i made my way over to the executive and took her into my arms, carrying her back into her room. i laid her down in the bed and draped the covers over her, pressing a light kiss on her forehead. i laid down next to her on the other side of he bed, where i too fell asleep rather quickly. so much for the slumber party that michael wanted...
