Anna POV

I was still sat here at Calum's, snuggled into his arms like a little child and we were still watching Spongebob. We were like this the majority of the time we'd hung out, just forgetting about the kissing part.

**

Shit. The door was now open, completely forgetting that my sister took her keys and could let herself back in. And also the fact that I shouldn't be here.

"Babeee I'm home!"

No answer.

"Babe??"

Daisy walked in to find Me and Calum sat extremely close on the sofas.

"Anna?! What are you doing here? Aren't you meant to be at home helping mum? And why are you so close to Calum? Back off."

I paused for a moment, trying to think of an answer. I had an answer ready, before Calum chirped in.

"I was helping her with her homework. She couldn't do it as she felt ill, hence why I was cuddling her. She needed the support. And your parents have gone out so she came here so she wasn't alone. Someone didn't tell her they was going out- did they now?"

To say Calum was a bad liar, this seemed quite good. Daisy fall for it.

"Where's her homework?" God she cant miss a trick can she.

"It's online. We've submitted it already, I think Anna said once it's submitted it's gone."

Not bad Calum.

"Ah okay. Well Anna, do you want me to take you home?"

I glanced over at Calum and he sent me a little nod, assuring me I was fine to go. Me and Daisy backed out of the front door as I mouthed a little "I love you" to Calum and a "thank you". He returned them both.

Daisy took my phone, connect my music to the stereo. There was a text message on my lock screen. And as Daisy knows my password, she unlocked and checked who it was.

"Why's Calum messaging you?" She asked.

"Probably just about that homework. Can you play 5 Seconds of Summer please? Don't stop??" I said, trying to change the subject.

"Okay, Don't stop coming right up." Daisy added.

**

"Anna?"

"Yeah?"

"Why's Calum messaged you:
'Thanks for tonight love, hopefully we get to do it again soon ;)"

Calum why bro. Why didn't you wait until I was home.

"Maybe it was meant for you? Me and Cal are close but not that close to be called love?"

"Anna. He never has called me love in this 4 year relationship. It's babe. Are you sure there's not something going on that I should know about?"

"Mhmm. You're fine."

"Okay, I'll leave you to reply."

The car journey home was an awkward silence. My sister dropped me off without a goodbye and drove off.

Thanks Calum.
