FALLING APART - CALUM HOOD (COMPLETED)

Chapter 42.

Chapter 42

I wake up curled among the duvet i look to my right and all I find is a empty spot , I let out a deep sigh and turn back over ; noticing a pink sticky note on a glass of water. 'Gone to get the kids be back soon , sorry for being a dick - C ' it reads. I can't even think at the moment because although things got bad between us last night it was still my fault for bailing on him after the effort he went through.

On the other hand he had no right to get wasted and shout at me like that , I need to talk to him about it all more importantly about the thing he was hiding from me.

I decide to make myself useful and begin cleaning up the kitchen from last nights mess and go over what im going to say to Calum when he gets home. Do I stay cool and talk to him later on or do I dive right in and find out what the hell is going on. When the door open and shuts again my mind is jumbled and as soon as he steps foot into the kitchen the words come tumbling out.

'What did you mean last night?' , Calum looks at me for a moment then walks out the room again so I follow him.

'Calum what are you ignoring me now?' I say

'Rebecca let me put the kids in the living room and a cartoon on and then we can talk okay.' he says , I take a deep breath and follow him into the living room. I rush over to the twins giving them both a kiss and cuddle as a 'welcome home' gesture.

'Hi cuties I hope you have been behaving for Auntie Sophia and Uncle Mike.' I say , Rosalie lets out a smile while James looks around the room.

'They slept through the whole night Michael said , and Kimberly loved Rosalie.'' Calum says reminding me he is here. I look back around at him as he holds out his hand to help me up , I take it and we make our way out towards the kitchen.

'So are we going to talk about last night then?' I say sitting down at one end of the table while he stands resting his back against the kitchen worktop.

'Sitting up the table seems so serious...' he mumbles

'This is serious Calum.' I roll my eyes and look down beginning to pick at the nail vanish on my fingertips.

'It doesn't matter I was drunk okay?'

'Calum is does matter because you were so upset.'

'Maybe that was because you didn't sh-'

'Don't turn this on me now Calum you know that was not the reason you was crying there is a bigger issue here , something you are hiding from me. I can't deal with secrets anymore we need to be honest with eachother.'

'Stop pushing then. You're making a bigger issue out of it I would tell you if it was serious , It is nothing so just leave it okay?!' He said.

His voice raised , arms crossed , eyebrows scunched together. I knew I had pissed him off but I'm sick of secrets , Secrets it what broke us up last time he needs to be honest with me or I don't know if I can deal with this anymore. He makes his way out the room but I stand up blocking him from the doorway.

'What are you doing Rebecca?' he sighs.

'You're not leaving until you tell me.' I say stubbornly this was a fight I was not going to give up on.

'Rebecca I could so easily move you right now.' he smirks.

'Calum shut up and just tell me.'

'Its nothing Becky stop worrying.' he mumbles

'Look at me Calum.' I say as his eyes are darted to the floor like his feet have suddenly become important.

'JUST LOOK AT ME.' I yell and his head snaps up , his eyes fixed to mine. He looks fragile , scared and broken. I do not know what is going on with him but I can sense he is not okay.
