Popularity (Malum)

Does it really matter that much? It matters so much that a person is willing to ruin a friendship for it. Apparently it does, for Calum anyway. Michael and Calum were best friends since they were in diapers, but that all just changed in highschool when Calum became really popular and started hanging out with the 'cool kids', who were the type of people to bully people like Michael. That's what Calum did, bully the dark blue haired boy. The day Michael first experienced Calum bullying him was the day he broke. He remembers it like it was yesterday, he walked into school that morning looking for Calum to hang out with, but the Kiwi boy was nowhere to be seen. Michael sighed in defeat, he walked down the hall and felt someone pull him into the janitors closet, there Calum was, in a leather jacket and looking totally punk ass. "Cal-Pal what-" Michael started but Calum's hand came in contact with his cheek, "Don't call me that fag!" He snapped and Michael strared and him in disbelief, his cheek red and slowly swelling, Calum continued to beat Michael until Michael sunk to the floor sobbing. "Dicklover." Calum mumbled and left the janitors closet, Michael sobbed into his hand, clutching his book in the other. He struggled to stand up as pain shot through his entire body with every movement. He walked outside of the school and dialed his mum, asking her to pick him asap through sovs. She immediately came and was the shoulder he needed to cry on, Michael explained what Calum had done through sobs and hiccups as they sat on his bed. Michael was broken, all thanks to the boy that he was so close to for years. Michael remembers hearing his mum swear for the first time when Calum came over to try and apologize, Michael heard the slap she gave him from his room upstairs and her shouting at him "NEVER FUCKING COME TO THIS HOUSE AGAIN!" Michael cried himself to sleep every night after that day, becoming depressed and cutting himself, music and blades becoming his only friends, the beating still happening every day. Michael had his head hung low as he walked home, blasting music through his ear buds to drown out sounds from bullies.
He was pushed to the floor and he took his earbuds out, seeing the whole gang ready to pounce on their prey. They all beat Michael until he couldn't move without getting pain shot through his whole body, Michael felt himself get picked up and his eyes widened when he saw who it was, "C-Calum?" Michael choked. Calum just frowned at the way Michael sounded, like he was close to death, Michael was carried up to his room and laid on the bed, Calum left the room to grab the first aid kit and coming back to see Michael sobbing into the pillows. "What have I done?" Calum asked, "You ruined my life!" Michael sobbed and Calum's heart shattered. Calum tried to clean Michael's cuts, only the blue haired boy squirming away, "Don't touch me!" Michael hissed, groaning in pain afterwards. "Let me help you Mikey." Calum begged, "You can't call me that anymore." Michael scolded and finally let Calum clean his cuts, putting bandages on every single one. Michael lifted his shirt off for Calum to clean his wounds there and Calum's jaw dropped, Michael's ribs were visible and you could barely see his stomach. "You did this." Michael reminded, having no problem reminding Calum that he indeed broke him. "Michael I regret everything I've done to you that has hurt you. I let the popularity get to my head and I didn't think twice about how important you were to me, seeing you now makes my heart shatter into an unfixable mess. I don't blame you if you never wanna talk to me again, but I'm so sorry Michael and I'd go back in time and change my decision in a heartbeat." Calum sniffled, tears falling down his cheeks and Michael was crying at this point too. "H-hiw can I trust you anymore?" Michael choked out and put his shirt back on, Calum took off the leather jacket and dropped it to the floor, carefully wrapping his arms around around Michael's thin frame. "Because I miss you more than anything.' Calum whispered.
