I flopped back onto the couch with a groan. Today was a terrible day. First off some sleaze ball named Ashton in the year ahead of me kept flirting with me, causing Calum to punch him and now Calum has detention for the rest of the week. I mean Ashton deserved it but now I can't see Calum after school, and I have to walk home for the rest of the week, which is quite far. I could take the bus but I hate it. Its filled with a bunch of annoying, loud and smelly teenagers who need to pick up a stick of deodorant once and a while. I texted Michael, he's really my only other friend than Calum, and he doesn't count. I ask him if he's busy at 4 and wait for a response. not even two minutes after I get a text back saying he was on his way into town that he could come pick me up and we could hangout there for a bit. He has to do some grocery shopping first. Michael lives alone because he was tired of his parents telling him what to do. So he literally just packed up and moved out. I would love to do that but my mom wants me to stay at home for a few more years to make sure I'm getting better and I don't stop taking my meds. Michael pulls into the driveway and we go into town. First we have to go to the grocery store which is an extremely quick drive. After about forty minutes of mostly me shopping for Michael while he puts random junk in the cart, we get out of the store and decide to go to get something for lunch. we decided on McDonald's because I like to get ice cream too. We start eating in mostly silence.
"Where is Calum at this fine day," Michael says and takes another bite
"Detention, he punched Ashton."
"Shit, he's pretty big. I'm surprised Calum actually got a punch in. Did Calum get hurt."
"Ashton played it off as a little bitch and didn't fight back, that's why Calum is in so much trouble."
"Pussy."
We finished our meal in silence and I got up and threw my garbage out.

After Michael dropped me off at home I got a text from Calum saying he wanted me to come over for dinner, his parents wouldn't be home so it was just us two
When I arrive I walk in because I think we've passed the whole knocking stage in our relation ship. As I walked through the door a lovely scent entered my nose coming from the kitchen. I followed the scent towards my boyfriend who was putting spaghetti into two bowls. I sat down at the table beside him as was putting our bowls in front of us.
"So what's the reason I was summoned to this nice meal," I asked knowing he doesn't cook without a reason.
"Well I wanted to have a nice meal before we talk about something," he said twisting his fork with pasta
"Hood you better not be breaking up with me," I chuckled adding more cheese to my pasta
"well.." he said with the cheekiest grin earning him a punch in the shoulder.
"Ow, I didn't know you could hit. Like what the fuck was that," he said completely shocked by my random action which was a lot stronger than I had meant it to be.
After dinner we went into the living room so me and Calum could "talk"
"Ok so, I've been applying to Collages and Uni's and I got a letter back from Princeton an-"
"Princeton!?" I cut him off, "what do you mean, like the Princeton in New Jersey, like on the other side of the world?"
"Yes but babe listen, this is all I've ever wanted. This has always been my dream,"
"Aren't their good enough schools in Australia!? Like close to me, Calum you're a terrible boyfriend if you're just going to get up and leave me, I need you!" I know I was acting selfish but I couldn't help it, every time the thought of him leaving me entered my mind it made me so upset I could throw something right at his perfect fucking face.
"Baby I love you but I have to help my self first, can you just calm down and let me open the letter,"
"Fine Calum, open your damn letter,"
As he opened the letter I was freaking the fuck out on the inside, if he gets in I'm gonna lose my shit. I won't even be mad at him I'm just gonna be so mad in general I know it.
"I got in," he said a quietly as possible
"Fuck," I screamed hitting the lamp off the table beside the couch he was sitting on. With that I walked out his house hoping he wouldn't follow me.
