Being Carter Hood (5SOS)

Chapter 6

"What about him?"
I nonchalantly point to a guy with black hair, standing by a photo booth machine. She shrugs her shoulders at him. "He looks kind of young." I nod in agreement and let out a laugh. We've been at the fair for about two hours and its been seriously fun. Stella and I rode almost all the rides and won a couple stuffed animals, took a bunch of selfies, while we casually scoped out some guys, but never approached. None looked better than Michael..
"How about one more carnival game before we leave?" Stella asks happily. "Oooo we haven't done the ring toss." i gasp while I walk towards it. "You sure? The prize is a gold fish in a bag." Stella laughs. "I've always wanted a gold fish." I tell her while giving the man my ticket. "Your not going to play?" I ask Stella. "Sure why not." She gives the man her ticket. Just as the worker gives us both three rings each a tall guy with blonde hair combed perfectly, and green eyes wearing a band shirt with a leather jacket, black jeans, and black combat boots walks up to the booth on my right. Making me in between him and Stella. He glances at me with a sexy smile. "Three rings, please." He huskly says to the worker in a British accent. I turn to Stella with wide eyes. With an 'oh my god he's sexy' kind of look. She looks back at me with a 'Get it' look and i nod. Michael is an ass, i say in my head.
I glance at the sexy guy before throwing my first ring, i mentally cheer when it lands on a bottle. Stella already threw two of hers and none of them landed on a bottle. I feel him watching me occasionally. Only one of his rings landed on a bottle when all of mine did. "Do you have a secret talent for throwing rings onto bottles?" He asks me while raising an eyebrow. Damn he's sexy. "You never know." I shrug my shoulders and smile at him. Stella stays quiet obviously wanting me to talk to him. "What fish would you like?" The worker asks. I point to a little black and white one. "Good choice." Says the sexy guy. "I'm James. By the way." He puts out his hand for me to shake. I shake back. "I'm Carter." he looks at me amused. "Not from here are you, Carter?" He asks. I shake my head. "Australia." My voice says confidently. We begin walking away slowly from the booth as we talk. I can tell Stella left but is still a place she can hear us. We walk to a bench near by. "Do you come here often?" He asks. "First time actually." I keep smiling at him. Even though he sounds so sweet, i can just tell he's a bad boy.
We sit and talk on the bench for what seems like hours, we just came up with random subjects to talk about and it never came awkward, this guy is sexy and great to talk to. Michael who??

"Can I walk you to your car?" James asks with charm. "Of course." I take his offer and we talk and laugh as we exit the fair and to Calum's car we borrowed. While Stella walks behind us. I can just feel her smiling. "It was really nice meeting you, Carter." Says James as he puts his hands into his pockets. I don't want to say goodbye to him. "You too, James." I say then continue. "Will you go out with me tonight?" I say seductively, leaning slightly against the car. "Isn't the guy supose to ask the girl?" He looks at me intrigued. " I'm not just any girl." I tell him. "I would definitely love to go out with you. Where?"
"Well, I need a date tonight for my brothers concert tonight." I grin. "Who's your brother?" Ask James. "Its a mystery." I wink at him. He lets out a sexy chuckle. "Meet me at the London 02 arena. At 6:45. Come through the back exit." I inform him and see his eyes widen a bit. "One condition." He grins. "If you name the fish after me. Something to remember me by." I glance down at the fish I'm holding in a little bag. "Deal."

"Where in the hell did that come from?" Stella looks at me shocked with a smile. "What?" We take a left turn out of the parking lot. "Who knew you could flirt like that!" She exaggerates. A giggle escapes my lips. "Now we have to make you look extra sexy for that sexy British guy." She squeals. "His name is James." i laugh. "Sexy British guy sounds better." She says humorously.

We walk into the hotel and i must look creepy of how I'm smiling hugely and skipping through the lobby to the elevator. With Stella laughing at my burst of joy behind me. On our way through the hallways and to our room. Ashton, Luke, Michael, and Calum are walking the other way. "Hey guys.." I say happily and keep walking away, but stop to wait for Stella. I notice them look at me weird. "What happened to her?" Asks my brother. "Why do you have a fish?" Asks Ashton. "She's got a hot date tonight and its from the fair." Stella says, happy for me. "A what?" Luke asks slightly angry. "Woah bro, why the sudden interest?" She asks. Luke shrugs. "Just wondering."
Stella looks at him unsure.
" I'm glad for you sis, have fun." Calum tells me. I nod my head at him. I'm so glad he's not over protective. "Your bringing him to the concert?" Michael takes me by suprise and asks me this. "Yeah." I answer.
"Maybe thats not such a good idea." Luke begins."Why not? I think its perfectly fine." God bless Calum. My brother kisses me on my cheek and begins walking, while the others follow. Then Stella and I enter our room, to begin picking our outfits.
