Falling For You

42. Drama Over Drama

Rosie's P.O.V

A week passed by and there is still no sign of Calum. Ever since he caught Luke and I kissing he has become M.I.A. I just miss him, not in the romantic sense, but as a friend. He was so good to me, yet I treated him so bad. I cheated on him with his best friend in the whole wide world who is not only his best friend but also his bandmate which further complicates the situation. I try to be there for Luke and keep him calm about the whole situation but as each day passes and Calum is still nowhere to be found, Luke panics more. I understand Luke, he doesn't want to lose his best friend and he doesn't want me to be the reason as to why Calum leaves the band.

"Rosie, is there any sign of Calum?" Sara stormed in the room with a packet of chips in her hand.

"Not yet." I whispered and looked down at Luke who was laying his head gently on my shoulder, his eyes tightly shut.

"Is he still asleep?" Sara giggled as she walked over and sat on the edge of the bed.

"Yeah." I forced a smile and ran my fingers through Luke's blonde hair.

I miss Luke. I know I know, he's here so it doesn't make sense that I miss him, but I miss him, the actual him, the happy Luke that I've always known. This past week with the whole Calum missing situation, Luke has spent all of his days in bed. The only time he actually gets out of bed is when he needs to use the bathroom. He spends all of his day in bed, he barely eats, he barely smiles anymore and that cute little giggle of his, nonexistent. It feels like Luke has been like this forever because right now I can't remember the last time I saw him smile, I can't remember how his cute little dimples would instantly show up when he would genuinely smile or giggle, I miss the crack in his voice when he sings. He barely does anything, he literally sits in bed staring at me, his eyes full of tears or he sleeps, trying to escape reality in the comfort of his dreams.

"Rosie?" a familiar voice whispered when I realized that it belonged to Calum when I turned my head around to find him standing by the door. He was wearing a simple black t-shirt, his black skinny jeans along with black Converse shoes.

"Calum!" I exclaimed and carefully lifted Luke's head and placed it on the pillow.

"Can we talk?" Calum responded, a smile was nonexistent on his face and I could tell he was nervous by the tone of his voice.

"Of course!" I smiled and got out of bed and walked to him.

"Let's go in the other room, I need privacy." Calum explained and walked towards the empty living room.

"So, how have you been?" I forced a smile while I sat on the couch.

"I've been thinking." Calum continued without returning a smile.

"What about?" I whispered, my smile instantly disappearing as I could already tell that our talk would not be pleasant.

"Rosie, I miss you." Calum blurted and grabbed my hand with his as tears streamed down his face.

"Calum." I whispered under my breath as I looked at him, his face was sad and all I wanted to do was hug him and tell him everything was alright but that would be a lie. Everything would not magically be alright. I had kissed Luke whilst I was with him and he saw everything, the whole thing and I couldn't just magically erase that or go back in time and stop that from happening.

I could feel my heart breaking into pieces as I looked at Calum who was sitting there, desperately holding onto my hand whilst his warm brown eyes were locked on mine, hoping that I somehow had a solution for this whole situation.

"I don't know what to say." I confessed and lowered my head shamefully.

"Rosie, I love you and I just want you to know that. I never expected to fall for you and to be completely fair, I can't just blame you and Luke..." Calum stuttered.
