Best friends? (malum)

Calum and I have been friends for years. Our relationship has always been kept purely platonic. But recently, I've been feeling things for him, things I shouldn't be feeling towards my best friend. Come to think of it, I've always felt some sort of spark between us, but I always brushed it off as nothing. I, Michael Gordon Clifford, have a major crush on Calum Thomas Hood, my best friend of 12 years.

We've only been separated for 4 days and I miss him like crazy. It's so weird not being around him 24/7 with the band and all. Don't get me wrong, I miss Luke and Ashton too, but I long for Calum. I need him with me. It's almost as if when he leaves a room, my happiness leaves with him. I'm pathetic.I whip out my phone and open the twitter app, deciding to tweet Calum, giving the fans something to talk about.

@ Michael5SOS: @ Calum5SOS I miss you loser, come over

Not even 2 minutes later, my phone beeps with a reply from Calum.

@ Calum5SOS: @ Michael5SOS I miss you toooooo, I'll be over in 10

I smile triumphantly, glad that I won't have to be alone for much longer - my parents already kicked me out of their house, so I resorted to my tiny flat that I rarely use.

Exactly 10 minutes later, I was being tackled into a massive hug by the one and only, Calum Hood.

"I missed you, Hood." I laughed, hugging him tight and ruffling his hair a bit.

"I missed you more, Clifford." He ruffled my hair as well.

"You're lucky I love you, or I'd be punching you for this," I pointed towards my head

He scoffed, "As if! Love you too, though."

I just let it go, "High School Musical marathon?"

He gasped dramatically, "You know me so well!"

Calum is a huge High School Musical fan, he knows every word and dance move to every song, and he makes me get up and sing with him. I'm always Gabriella, or Ryan, because he claims to be the star, so he has to be Troy, or Sharpay, because they're "too fabulous for me".

We were currently up to Breaking Free in the first movie and he's got me up, twirling me around like crazy and as the song ended, he pulled me to him, breathing hard and leaned up and kissed my cheek, like Troy does to Gabriella. I tried so hard to fight off the blush, because this isn't an unusual occurrence between the two of us, but I couldn't, and so my cheeks were flushed bright red as Calum stared at me in shock, because I'd never blushed at his actions before.

"Mikey? Are-are you blushing?"

"What? No?" I turned my head away.

"Yes you are," I could practically hear his smirk, making tears spring to my eyes in embarrassment, because crap, he knows something's up.

I ran to my bedroom, shutting the door, flinging myself face first onto my bed, letting the tears run freely now.I heard my door creak open and felt as the bed dipped down next to me, Calum's familiar hand rubbing circles into my back as I cried.

"Shit, Mikey, why are you crying?"That only made me cry harder, sobs wracking my body.

Calum sat against the headboard and pulled me on his lap, so I was straddling him. I wrapped my arms around his neck and hid my face as I cried. He was softly humming the beat of a song I didn't recognise in my ear, slowly calming me down.

"I'm sorry." I whispered into his ear.

"Don't be sorry," He pulled me back so he could look into my eyes, running his thumb over my cheek, "why were you crying?"
