Too Late//Calum's Pov

"Ever since the day that we met I couldn't get you out of my head"
A Calum Imagine-Cal's Pov;

She's got perfect written on her forehead .She's got gorgeous eyes.She has got a great personality.She has got a really cute laugh.She's got a great body.But there's one more thing she has got that bothers me a lot.
A boyfriend.

My best friend Michael introduced me to a girl called (Y/N) about 4 months ago,And since my eyes layed contact with hers, I haven't been able to stop thinking about her.Its ridiculous,i know.But I can't help the way i feel towards her.I think i might be in love.
So I have decided.Im done with the one way love system going on that she is oblivious to.Today is the day im going to tell (Y/N) How i feel.Its now or never.
and never is too late.

I sent (Y/N) a text while butterflies formed in my stomach.I asked her if i could go over and talk to her.Were close,so i know this is going to be even harder.I don't want to walk away at the end of the night without a best friend.

She replied shortly after saying that that was fine so i grabbed my jacket and put on my trainers.
When i arrived at her house,she opened the door and let me in.(durh)I was a nervous but as always she didn't notice.Which this time,was quite a relief.
"Come on in Hood"
"Will do (Y/L/N)"You smirked.
She led me to the living room,where we both sat down next to one another.The time has come where i'm going to tell her,i thought to myself.
"(Y/N)."
"Yes Calum?"
"Can can can i tell you s-something"I spluttered nervously.
"Sure wassup big boy"she smiled.
"Imma just come out and say it,okay?"
"Okay."
"(Y/N),I love you.Ever since the day that we met i couldn't get you out of my head.Whenever i see you and your boyfriend together jealously contains me.He treats you like shit and if you let me,you will see just what we could be.I told myself now was the time to tell you.It was now or never...Never is too late.I don't want to be too late"You rambled on,looking deep down at the floor.

(Y/N) looked at me with wide eyes.Completely speechless.After several minutes of me waiting for her to reply I spoke up again,begging her to say something.
"(Y/N),Please say something,Tell me you love me too.Please." My voice began to grow very shaky.She looked at me with tears in her eyes.So with that,I let out the emotions i had been tying to hold in but i couldn't hold them in no more.I knew what she was going to say next.I knew it.
"I la-ove youhh too Calumm"Her tears dropped down her cheeks.We were now both crying."B-b-but not like that"She continued,letting out bigger sobs.That was the very first time i had ever had my heart broken.It hurt a lot.It hurt like hell.
She grabbed my hand,and thats when i noticed it.
How could i be so stupid?
I hate myself.im such an embarrassment.
It stared up at me.It glistened in the light.I grabbed her left hand and took a deeper look just to make sure i wasn't hallucinating.And so i wasn't.It was real.The ring was real.
She was engaged.
Anger grew in my tummy.Not towards her or anyone else,But myself.
"Y-your-r engaged?" i asked,Just to confirm it.She just nodded. "He proposed-d this this this this morning"
I thought my broken heart hurt before.Now it felt like i had been hit in my heart left,right and centre,I needed to get out of here.The walls felt like they were closing in on me.My chest began to tighten.
"I'm s-s-soo sssor-r-ry ckckkkalum"She said,Her voice beginning to crack.
"It's okay (Y/N)." I replied,trying to act stronger then i actually am.
"I'm always too late"

And with that i stood up and left,My heart shattered into millions of pieces.
