Bad Habits || Calum Hood (DISCONTINUED)

chapter twenty-four

3 months later.

LAURENS POV.

I walked out of the house, jumping into Michael's car. He gave me a quick peck on the lips as I put on my seat belt.

"Hey baby." he spoke up.

"Hello my love." I said back, earning a smile. He then started driving to school. I sighed. I always have hated school but we're finally in our senior year. We parked in our normal spot. I got out of the car and my eyes wondered around, looking for Luke. I spotted him waving goodbye to Ashton and walking towards Zoe. I walked towards him, Michael following behind me.

"Hey." I said cheerfully, earning a grin from him.

"Hey." he said, waving at Michael. I felt Michael's fingers intertwine with mine and I couldn't help but smile. The school bell rang and me and Luke rushed of to English, waving our quick goodbyes to Michael and Zoe. I took my usual seat in the back next to Luke who took out his notepad and pencil. Suddenly a figure I haven't seen in 2 months walked in.

That figure was good old, Mr Calum Hood. I shrunk in my seat earning an eye widening glance from Luke.

"Is this real?" I whispered and he nodded. I watched as Calum walked to a seat, looking around the room until his eyes met mine. I looked away instantly. After a few more times of me hanging out with Michael I started growing feelings for him which took a wrong turn in mine and Calum's relationship. I told Calum and we broke up after he had sex with that Riley chick and I haven't talked to him or tried to since. Neither have any of the boys. We wanted nothing to do with him.

"Welcome back." Mr.Harvey, our English teacher said in a cheerful tone causing me to flinch. "Even though it's the first day back since summer break, doesn't mean you can't pay attention Ms.Greendeck." he said towards me and I felt my cheeks go red. Luke chuckled next to me and I shot him a glare. Calum looked over at me, a little smile worn on his face. I looked down at my notebook and scribbled down a note that Luke can read without getting us in trouble. This period seemed to go by so slow. I heard the bell ring and I hurried out of class, Luke following behind me.

"Well that was awkward." he chuckled as he followed me to my locker. 

"Yeah I know, he kept looking at me." I chewed on my bottom lip as I felt hands slip around my waste. A smile crept on my face as I turned around to see Michael.

"Who kept looking at you, princess?" he said sweetly, looking at my lips. I gulped at the thought of telling him, because I didn't want him to worry.

"Calum." Luke said for me and Michael released his grip on me, his eyes got wide.

"Calum as in Calum Hood?" he looked shocked. I just nodded and he nodded aswell.

"I have to get to class, see you guys at lunch." Luke waved and we waved back. Michael glanced at me, seeing how worried I was.

"Baby don't worry. If he tries to talk to you just ignore him and then tell me. I'll take care of him." he smiled and I chuckled. He leaned down and kisses me, his lips locking with mine. I couldn't help but smile. I am really lucky to have someone who cares as much as him in my life. He walked away and I saw Calum, the boy that I haven't talked to in months, glancing over at me. I sighed and walked to my next class.

The teacher greeted me and told me to take my assign seat that was on the door. And look who walks in, Calum. He searched on the board aswell which was sadly, right next to mine. He walked quickly and sat down next to me, not saying a word.

"I hope you guys get comfy in your seats, it will be like this for the rest of the year." I breathed heavily. So far this day isn't going well. How ironic that I ended up next to Calum. 

Throughout the class period he kept looking over at me which was starting to make me uncomfortable. It's crazy how he meant so much to me 4 months ago, but now I hate his guts and I have a reason to.

"So," he said and my heart stopped completely. I felt dizzy. His voice got so much deeper and it sounds so different from the last time I heard it. "How was your summer?" he glanced at my shaking hands and smirked to himself. I looked him straight in the eye and scoffed.

"You have a lot of nerve talking to me, you know that?" I rolled my eyes and he looked taken back but I honestly didn't care. He doesn't deserve any ounce of kindness whatsoever. 

"I see you're with Michael now." he laughed a bit. "How is that working out for you?"

"Great actually. He treats me with respect and actually knows how to control himself. And he fucks me hard too, can't get enough of it." I smiled and his face dropped. Oh if looks could kill. "Are you still drinking and screwing around with Riley?" I spat at him.

"You know that was a mistake." he said lowly and I rolled my eyes. Of course he would say that. Finally after that long class period the bell rang.

I was so relieved that the school day was over. I didn't think I could handle it any longer. I sat on the bench outside of the school, waiting for Michael. He walked out with a book in his hand, walking over to me. He pecked my cheek and walked to his car, unlocking it. I hopped inside and sighed in relief.

"Today was so shit." I felt a lump in my throat that I knew would come eventually. Even if I don't like Calum the way I used to, I still care for him and it just hurts.

"What happened babe?" Michael put his hand on my thigh and rubbed it, trying to make me feel comfortable. But right now, I just wanted to be alone in my bed.

"Calum talked to me and it wasn't the most pleasant conversation." I looked at his hand on my thigh and smiled, playing with his fingers. I heard Michael sigh.

"What did he say?" his tone changed and he sounded a little ticked off."

"He was basically mocking me with how I'm dating you and stuff. So I was like yeah we're dating and he fucks me good." I chuckled and so did he. I looked out of the window to see Calum walking towards his car. 

"Can we go?" I looked at Michael and he nodded, turning the car on. The car ride was quite except for the faint music playing in the back. 

We pulled up to my driveway and Michael killed the engine, looking over at me.

"You aren't getting feelings for him again right?" he asked, a pained expression on his face. I shook my head. I didn't know what I was feeling. I knew I didn't like him but part of me still missed him and I'm scared, so scared that I'm gonna end up forgiving him and taking him back. I don't want that. I want Michael. But I guess things happen, and I guess we will let fate decide. But as of now, I'm trying my best to keep him out of my way. I gave Michael a quick peck on the lips.

"Text me when your home my love. Drive safe. I love you." I smiled even though he lived literally a mile away. He smiled.

"I love you more."
