I felt like shit.

Tonight Skylar and Calum were supposed to be going on their date and I did nothing this whole week to try and stop them.

Actually, I've been avoiding Sky. It was an easy thing to do since her parents had returned and she went back to her own house. All I've done these past few days is lay here, occasionally eat or pee, and sleep.

I've never felt more shitty in my life.

It's really hard trying to not think about someone so important to you. This whole time I've been laying here the only thing that has crossed my mind is Skylar. Whether it be just her, or childhood memories, or the fact that Calum has her and not me.

She's the only thing on my mind.

And it doesn't really help much that she's my home screen. I still haven't changed my background picture since the day I took that photo of her. I smile every time I see it but now it just makes my heart hurt. My heart literally hurts.

Skylar has tried to text me 38 times and she's called 15. I haven't answered any of them. I've gotten close a couple times. I would start typing, and halfway through the text I would delete it all and throw my phone across my bed.

I didn't expect avoiding Sky to hurt this much but jesus it hurts. She's the only person that can make me laugh at anytime and trust me I've tried laughing without her help. I've even stayed up till 3:00 watching funny videos trying to crack a smile but the only ones that have succeeded were the videos of Sky I had saved on my phone. It's pathetic really.

Ashton was right. I am whipped.

I really didn't expect much to happen that night, but holy shit did a lot happen.

All I needed was that one text I just read off of my phone, that one piece of proof that she hadn't given up on me.

I was typing rapidly and out the door in seconds. Practically sprinting down the sidewalk.

And I'm not sure if I'm glad I did or if I regret it.

I was nervous. So nervous.

Tonight I am going on a date with none other than Calum Hood. The boy I've liked for quite a while now, has finally asked me on a date and tonight is finally the night.

I just wish Luke was here.

Luke would tell me if I looked okay for the date. He would laugh at me when I would tell him I'm nervous and he'd probably tell me to relax and massage my shoulders like he always does when I'm nervous.

I've lost track on how many times I've tried calling him or texting him. And the biggest part about it is that he hasn't responded to any. I guess I kinda gave up trying to reach him yesterday. I was getting nowhere anyways.

But one text couldn't hurt, right?

I slowly crawled onto my bed and over to where my phone was charging. I picked up my phone and hesitantly opened up my messages and began typing.

To Lucifer: It'd be nice if you were here before I go. I'm really nervous :/

I sighed and threw my phone onto my bed and got up quickly, occupying myself with fixing my hair since I was positive I wouldn't be getting a reply.

I applied a small amount of lip gloss onto my lips before checking myself in the mirror once more. I popped my lips together and grabbed my phone to check the time and what I saw made my jaw drop.

From Lucifer: on my way.

I couldn't help the smile that formed on my face when I read the text. I quickly set my phone down and jogged downstairs just as the doorbell rang through the living room. I quickly walked to the front door and opened it with a bright smile on my face.

Once I was met with his face I couldn't help but feel my heart rate accelerate slightly but my smile never faltered. I tilted my head to the side as he smiled widely.

"Calum. A little early, aren't we?" His smile seemed to grow as I stepped back to let him inside. "Yeah, sorry. I figured I'd come by a little early because I was getting anxious just waiting for the time to go by." I smiled up at him as he seated himself on the couch and I awkwardly sat on the other end.

"Oh, it's fine I don't mind." I said quietly as Calum smirked at me. "What are you doing over there? C'mere, I don't bite." I felt myself blush as I slowly scooted over to Calum. He smiled and gently grabbed my arm, pulling me as close to him as he could.

He just silently stared at me and I stared right back, watching as his eyes drifted from my eyes to my lips. Before I could comprehend what was happening his lips collided with mine. I instinctively pulled back, but Calum just laid his hand on the back of my neck and pulled me closer.

"You're so beautiful.." Calum mumbled against my neck as he leaned back and lightly pressed his lips against mine. I could feel my heart in my throat as I finally gathered the courage to kiss him back.

While I was so dizzy off of Calum, somewhere in the middle of our make out session on the couch, I ended up on his lap, my legs on either side of him, and his hands were on the small of my back as mine were tangled in his hair. It was silent, no noises needed to be made to show that he was enjoying this as much as I was.

As we pulled apart from each other, breathless and aching for more, I rested my forehead against his and we just looked at each other, admiring each others swollen lips and the fact that we had done it to each other.

Although, our heated moment was cut short when we heard someone clear their throat behind me. I rapidly threw myself off of Calum and to the other side of the couch in fear of my father coming home from work early. But as I looked up I was met with someone more terrifying;

Luke.

Hey guys I'm really sorry it took so long. I did a stupid thing and joined track as well. My coach guilt tripped me soo

Now my mornings are full due to tennis, and my afternoons are full due to track. Now that it's spring break I will try to post another chapter before spring break is over. Don't be mad if I can't because I have a full schedule for the week as well.

Tuesday I am going to Kemah and Wednesday I am going to the rodeo and Thursday I am staying the night at a friends and Saturday I am going to watch the "cirque du soleil". I will try my hardest to squeeze in time for this book for you guys.

If this was short I am very sorry this is unedited as well so I won't be surprised if it's not that great.
