Reflection {Calum Hood}

Chapter 21

It's been two weeks withought seeing Calum.

And it sucks.

There is no one to cuddle with at night, there is no one to hold me, or to kiss me. Even if it did annoy me, I miss how he would call me by my full name. The only comfort I have is my couch and carton of ice cream. This "break" is probably the hardest thing I've ever done. What have I gotten myself into?

Emotionally drained. And that's all I can be. Crying, thinking how could he do this to me? Punching pillows and breaking glasses against the wall.

My sadness seemed to consume me, and I don't know how to stop it.

This two week break seems like a decade, and I can't get his smile out of my mind. I can't get his laugh out of my head. It's driving me insane.

I can barely sleep at night. I never knew that Calum would ever stoop so low as to violence toward another person. Seeing him filled with rage was terrifying, and very sudden. He made quick sharp moves toward the paps that day.

So yes, it's been two weeks, almost three, but I can't stop replaying it over and over. I need a distraction.

Fast.

I stumbled over to the pantry, barely able to hold myself up, and pulled out some wine. I popped the cap right off and just chugged the thing, not giving a crap about anyone or anything in the world. I spilled all over my gray oversized pullover sweatshirt.

My phone went off. I put the bottle down and jerked my head towards my phone, the beeping alarming me.

Beep. There it is again.

My phone has literally collected cobwebs from me not using it. I never wanted to see it..thinking a text from Calum could pop up somewhere.

But no, it was Michael.

I stumbled over to the couch, unlocked my phone, and read the text.

"It's almost been 3 weeks, how are you holdin up?"

I scrolled to the second text.

"Do you need someone to talk to? I can come over.."

I was miserable, confused, angry, depressed and felt fat, and he wants to come over?

"Sure. That'd be great." I replied.

"Ok. On my way Maddie"

Perfect. A distraction.

This can't go wrong at all.
