when I wake up (calum hood a.u.)

chapter 15

Regina hadn't been exactly honest with Ashton.

Sure, on the outside, she seemed like a sweet girl. Did theatre, got good grades, helped her dad out around the house, didn't smoke or drink (at least not a lot), didn't do drugs. But Regina had a secret. Actually, two.

1.) She was pansexual.

2.) She was cheating on Ashton. With a girl.

When Regina first met Cameron, she thought, you know, she was hot and stuff. So she got that stupid tattoo of a feather on her rib (it was such a white girl tattoo it was gross; and Regina wasn't even white) while ridiculously drunk and hooked up with Cameron. However, unlike most of Regina's hookups, Cameron came back. Asked for more. And so far, it was pretty enjoyable. She liked getting to know her...and the other stuff, too.

After a long day, Cameron rolled over to Regina, kissed her cheek, and yanked on her shoes. Regina was sad to see her go, but they both had school in the morning.

"Tomorrow at three?" She asked, touching Cameron's arm as she got up. Cameron nodded, ruffling Regina's thick mess of curls. "Of course."

"Sneak out the back door, okay?"

"This is what I live for." Cameron replied, tip-toeing out into the hallway. Regina silently thanked the stars she was the only one with the downstairs bedroom.

Oh lord no.

Regina had been assigned to a project with Calum. No no no no no (cue the High School Musical soundtrack).

It was a history project. Something about colonization. Regina couldn't care less.

"I'll meet with you at five, my house, yeah?" Regina told Calum after class, shutting her purple binder. Calum nodded as the bell rang. She shoved the binder into her green knapsack and set off to Chemistry. She just wanted to eat her pasta and get on with the day.

For some reason, it didn't occur to her that her meet up with Cameron would coincide with her study session with Calum.

So it was really awkward when 5 o'clock rolled around, and Calum let himself in (the door was unlocked, Regina was the only one home; her dad worked long shifts at the hospital), and came into her room to see Cam and Regina cuddled up in her baby pink sheets.

"Reg?"

"Shit!" The two scrambled out, Regina putting her curls up into a high bun. But what was more surprising than the fact that Calum-mcfreaking-Hood saw her and her fuck buddy in bed together was that he recognized Cam.

"Cami?"

"Who the fuck is Cami?!"

"Cal?"

"Cameron Ashley?" Calum came up to her, a sense of bewilderment around him. "Girly, pink-loving, Cami Ashely?" He touched her shoulder lightly. Cam furrowed her eyebrows.

Regina was taken aback. Cam was this short, butch, "if-you-call-me-Cami-I-will-slit-your-throat." lesbian. How the hell did she know Calum?

Oh yeah, Regina recalled. She was from Melbourne.

"How exactly do you two know eachother?" Regina asked, pushing the them away. Cam looked like she was ready to fight. Calum just looked really confused.

"We dated." What the fuck?
