*the next day*

I woke up, groaning at the light coming from the window. I picked up my phone, and saw that it was already 2:30 pm. I got out of bed, almost falling over, but managed to be stable. I felt like shit.

I got into the bathroom and took a nice long warm shower. The hot water against my skin felt amazing.

I wrapped a towel around my body and went into my room. I remember everything from last night...the party and my room. I was still confused as to who they were talking about. But I was glad that I had two friends that looked after me and cares for me.

I changed into black shorts and a My Chemical Romance shirt and went back into my bathroom to brush my teeth.

All of a sudden, my phone began to ring and I read Calum's name and smiled. I picked up immediately. "Hey, how you feeling?" He asked. "Like shit. Thanks for taking me home." I said and began to put on some makeup. Might as well multi-task.

"No problem. Hey, do you wanna hang out today? I'll bring take out and we can cuddle and watch movies." "Deal." I said and hung up. I still felt like absolute shit, but maybe being with a friend right now would help.

I checked into Josh's room, and found him sound asleep. He must've stayed up all night with his friend. I closed the door quietly and hummed 'I Dont Love You by My Chemical Romance' as I played it from my phone.

I went downstairs and after a few minutes, I heard a knock at the door. "Hey Cal, come on in." I smiled and he held up the take out bag, "you're amazing." I said and he grinned. He wore black ripped skinny jeans with a muscle tank that showed off his biceps. We then laid on my bed and ate while cuddling and watching some movie.

------------------------------------------

After the movie, we didn't know what to do, so Calum suggested some ideas, "maybe we can go to the mall!" He said and I nodded. I do need new clothes.

Once we got into his car, My Chemical Romance was blasting and he turned it down, "sorry." His cheeks turned a light shade of pink. I turn the music back up, so it was blasting and he grinned. The whole way to the mall, Calum and I sang along to all the songs.

Calum began to sing along to 'Cancer' and gosh he was an amazing singer. I watched him sing, and he looked so into it. It was adorable the way he loves music.

"So maybe we can hit Hot Topic first?" I asked and he grinned and nodded.

Once we got into the store, we were like children in a candy store. Looking at all the shirts and I finally decided to pick up a muscle tank that said "I prefer the guitarist." He smirked at me.

"You should get it." He said and I nodded, adding it to my other clothes I bought.

Once we payed, Calum wanted to go to the foodcourt, but on our way out, I bumped into someone. "Watch where you're going." That voice sounded oddly familiar. I looked up and saw Luke. "Why don't you move if you saw me." I said back. He looked surprised that I talked back at him. Michael was looking at me, and he bit his lip. Calum looked at Luke and Michael and looked pissed off. "Fuck off Luke." He said.

Ashton mouthed 'sorry' and I nodded before giving him a sad smile. "Why don't you tell your 'fake girlfriend' to move out of my damn way." Luke rolled his eyes and looked disguested as he stared at me. Ashton told him to 'calm down' as he was starting to yell. I was afraid of what he could do. I had a hint if fear in my eyes and Luke smirked. He could be capable of anything, and from the stories I've heard, I don't want to be on his bad side.

I didn't want to be apart of this. I looked at Michael again, because he kept on looking at me and he looked upset? Why is he upset? Doesn't he like it when people are afraid of their group?

"We're sorry, Luke's just clumsy." Michael said and looked at me again. What was he doing? Why is he being...nice? His green eyes pulled me into a trance.

"Okay? Well bye Ashton, bye Michael." I said and Calum looked at me, then to the boys. "Bye babe." Michael grinned at me and Calum looked really confused.

Once we got out of the store, Calum pulled me aside. "What the hell happened in there with Michael and you?"

"I guess it started off from the party." I said and Calum nodded.

I told him everything that happened once he and Ashton both left me at the party to talk to other people. I told him about a girl named Amber, had began talking to me and we actually started being friends. I also told him how Michael asked for my number and I told Calum that I gave it to him. He looked pissed off, and I felt bad.

"I-I just don't know. He seems sweet and I want to give him a chance." I said to Calum. He glared at me.

"I don't want you to get hurt. Trust me, Michael is not the guy you would want to date," he sighed, "but if you want to give him a chance you can."

"I don't know him as well as you and Ashton do, but maybe he'll change." I said and Calum walked me over to the food court so we could get something to eat. We discussed it about Michael and I and Calum told me everything to watch out for. I was glad that he was being cautious for me and that at least I would have a heads up.

After the mall, Calum took me home and walked me up to the doorstep. "I had fun today." I said and his cheeks turned a light shade of pink.

"Me too. Call me if anything happens." He said and hugged me tight. I breathed in his cologne and it was comforting. "I will. Thanks Calum for always being there for me." I said and pecked his cheek before going inside and meeting my mum in the living room. "Hi hun, who was that at the door?" She asked and I smiled. "Calum, he's my friend."

"Just a friend?" "Yes mom. We are only good friends." I laughed as she shook her head and ran upstairs to my room.

I changed and picked up the guitar I bought when I first met Calum. I played a few tunes before placing it back down and I turned on netflix. No day is complete without netflix.
