Luke

I coughed hysterically as I lied my body on top of the bed spindly, not feeling to do anything at all. I felt my body had no energy, like everything had been siphoned off from my body. I looked up at the ceiling in surrender before I coughed again, my nose sniffling incessantly.

I checked myself by touching my forehead. The sudden warm that I got on my palm was burning as I let out a grumble of an irritation. Huffing heftily, I craned my arm and reached over my phone, unlocking it before I decided to text Calum.

My prince.

Don't ask me why I haven't changed the contact name. I'm just a bitch who's too lazy to do that after all.

Cal, i think i'm sick.

A few seconds later i received a new message.

Oh shit, are you okay? Should i come over?

I don't know... i don't feel that great.

But this morning you're just fine as always.

I wonder why too, suddenly i'm coughing and sniffling and now my body feels warm af.

Should i come over and take care of you?

Please.

Okay, wait for me baby.

Yeah.

I sighed, throwing my phone beside me as I slowly let my eyes close. As I was about to drift myself into a deep sleep, suddenly I heard a clank of my door being opened. I lazily opened my eyes, darting them to see Calum who was standing in front of the door.

He hastily strode towards me, immediately sat on my bed, beside me. His expression seemed so weird, unreadable also, it was a mixture of worried, and gladness. Maybe he was worried that I got sick, and glad that I was still okay — at least.

Calum landed his right hand to touch my forehead, checking the heat of my body. He sighed, smile tugged on his lips with his chocolate brown colored eyes were studying me, sending an inexplicable feeling from the pit of my stomach.

"Are you okay?" he softly asked, his voice sounded so sincere and worried at the same time.

"Do i look okay to you?" I asked back sarcastically, huffing in the end.

"Not really, if i could say. You have a fever. But you still look damn good either way, so," Calum shrugged, smiling cheekily. I just rolled my eyes. "Do you want anything?"

All I could do was quiet. My mind drifted into a deep thought and my lips kept forming a tight line as I let them to stay shut. I was thinking for a few seconds before i opened my mouth and decided to speak up. "Just water, i think."

Calum nodded, slowly sliding off from the bed and took the bottle that I thought he brought on the way here. He reached towards me again, handing me the bottle as he smiled sincerely. I looked up at him with a flash of dimpled smile, meant it was big enough to make my smile forming a dimple.

"Thank you," I murmured as I took the bottle and opened it.

After I drank the water, I released a relieved sigh that Calum was actually here. Calum was really a caring guy, even though he confirmed to me that he wasn't a romantic person at all, which was true if i could say.

But hell, I didn't care about it at all. Because as Michael said, I'm not into that kind of thing, I just wanted a chill and fun relationship but still filled with love and passion. And Calum proved them to me. It wasn't like I never admitted that Calum never treated me sweetly, it was the total opposite, but this kind of relationship honestly my goals since I was, thirteen, I guess.
