Two Lips

3. Night Before Prom

Janelle's POV

Chantelle hasn't been answering any of my calls lately. I'm really getting worried about her! Why woudn't I? I'm her BFF.

I was about to call her again but got interrupted by a familiar ring tone on my phone.

*Amnesia playing -ringtone-*

Fuck. It's Calum.
Calum and I are... lets just say; complicated. It all started on the night before prom.

*Flashback*

"I heard Kristine is coming" I informed Calum.
"Wait what?!" He whisper-shouted.
"What? I thought you were cool with her already"
"Uh no! Just to recap, that bitch cheated on me twice. TWICE!"
"Not my fault you forgave her the first time" I chuckled.
"Not funny" He said being all serious.

I saw Andrea, Claire and Chantelle dancing around so I rushed to them and joined in. Calum followed me.

"Hey you want a drink?" Calum offered.
"Se il vous plaît" I pleased.

He scurried away to grab us a drink.

-10 minutes later-

Calum still hasn't returned with our drinks. I got worried so I asked people if anybody has seen him. I spot Michael. He might know where he is.

"Mikey! Here! Its Janelle!" I waved.

He waves back and started to walk towards me.

"I was just wondering if you've seen Cal around." I asked.
"Wait, I thought he was with you!" He replied.
"Excuse me?"
"Well I saw him just a few minutes ago with a girl that had a pink knee high dress like yours walking towards the garden." He explained.

I rushed out of the building and went to the garden.

I saw Calum making out with another girl. I took a few steps forward to see more clearly of who it was.

KRISTINE?! WHAT IN THE ACTUAL FUCK?!!?!!

"CALUM THOMAS HOOD! GET YOUR ASS OVER HERE!" I yell in frustration.

He looked over at my direction and I suddenly saw guilt in his eyes. He ran towards me as quickly as he could.

"Babe I could explain" he tried convincing me but please. Who needs a jerk in their lives?

"Shut it Hood. We're over." I said while taking the car keys out of his front pocket and stormed out.

*Flashback Ends*

Should I answer? I guess.
I picked up the phone and held it against my left ear.

--

Calum: Hey babe. About last week.
Me: I said we're over. Stop calling me babe you asshole.
Calum: Please Janelle. It was an accident.
Janelle: What part of that was a fucking accident?!?!

I started to break and sobbed.

Calum: I'm coming over.
Janelle: Hey wait n--

I was about to refuse but he ended the call.
Welp now he's on his way.

Whats taking so long?

-15 minutes later-

I heard the annoying doorbell ring and assumed it was Calum. I heard footsteps outside and the doorknob creek.

I looked at the doorway and saw Calum standing there with a bouquet of flowers. He sped walked towards my bed and handed me the roses.

"Sorry I took so long, I had to fight this ignorant lady for the flowers" He apologized.

"Calum, I said we're over. Just please go." I said giving back the flowers and pointing to the door.

Calum's dark eyes started to water. I felt guilt rush throughout my body. He stood up and made him way out the door.

He looked back at me one last time and continued to walk. Sadness and guilt took over me. I couldn't help but just cry. I buried my face onto my pillow and let out a scream.
