Taylor

Mondays. Literally everyone hates them including me. But I'm happy that's its lunch time and the day is half done, and to make it much better Calum asked to hang out with me. I throw my binder at the bottom of my locker as soon as I open. I grab my wrap and vitamin water from my bag. I jump suddenly when hands cover my vision; "guess who." Calum's deep voice comes from behind me. I break out into a big smile, "hmm a very big dork named Calum." His hands remove from my eyes and I turn around to face him. "I am not a dork." He tries to sound offended, but fails miserably when he lets out a small laugh. "Where do you wanna eat?" I shrug my shoulders, "it looks nice outside."

"Lets go outside then."

"Alright." I shut my locker quickly before joining Calum for our little walk outside. He leads us over to a round picnic table. He sits down right beside me, instead of across. I take my wrap out and take a bite out of it. I groan slightly at the amazing taste it holds. "Is it good?" Calum smirks. I nod, "wanna a bite?"

"What's in it?"

"Chicken, caesar dressing, lettuce, and bacon."

He leans his head down and opens his mouth; I lift the wrap just a bit past his lips. He leans a bit further and takes a bite. His eyes never leave mine during his actions, and I can't lie and say it's not making me feel certain way, I really can't explain the things running trough me at the moment. After he chews it and shallows it he grins at me. "It's good."

"My dad made it." I say proudly.

He hums not letting his smile leave his lips. I really just want to kiss his pink plump lips. I want to feel all the emotions he gives me while his lips are on my mine.

"Hey guys."

Calum and I turn heads very quickly; to find Ashton sitting on the other end. Great. I'm not very fond of Ashton after he told Calum all that false information about me. "Hey Ashton." Calum says happily, which I guess he wouldn't be irritated with him when he has no reason to. "Hey Taylor."

I give him a tight smile and I continue to eat my wrap. Calum starts up a conversation with him about some band. I mostly tune them out, because yes I'm pretty annoyed that Ashton sitting across from me right now. If Ashton didn't tell Calum that night would have been drama free and Calum's lips wouldn't have touched that girls, I know that's a bit of jealousy running through me but still. "I'll be right back Luke texted me needing my help with something." Calum jumps up from his spot and makes his way to the parking lot.

I take the last bite of wrap and wash it down with my drink. "I get the feeling there is some tension, almost like you don't want me here."

"It's that obvious huh?" I sound a bit more harsh than I intended.

He chuckles, "I know why Calum likes you. You're a feisty one."

I roll my eyes.

"May I ask why you have a negative attitude towards me?"

"Well you told Calum some false information about me, and I didn't appreciate that."

"Oh, that." His tone and face are now serious.

"Yeah, that."

"Look no hard feelings, it's just that I've known Calum for awhile now. So he started acting a bit different and I wanted to know why. I asked Michael and Luke what was going on, and Michael brought up your name up. Sure enough I seen you two together, and I can tell you were definitely different. So when I saw you with Roman I made all that stuff up to test him." He explains.

"Oh. Test him how?"

"Well lets just say he did exactly what I knew he would. He called Hally and took her to the party."

So that's who that girl was. Wait, so Ashton knew he would did that, what is Hally to Calum?

"Hally?" I question.

"Yup, fell right into the bait. Sorry if I hurt your feelings, but I just don't want Calum to hurt someone sweet like you."

Everything I felt about Ashton before this talk has vanished, and I feel like I could actually like him now. "It's okay."

"Great! I didn't want you to hate me."

"May I ask what is Hally to Calum?"

"Uhh, that isn't my place to tell you." He fixes his black bandana around his forehead.

Now this really makes me wonder who Hally is now. If he can't tell me it must be bad, or something I may not like to hear.

"I really think he's very fond of you." His lips finally lift into a smile.

I can't help but blush at his words. I hope so because this would be a waste of time and energy. Dammit. Now I'm doubting everything because of this damn Hally chick.

"I feel the same way about him," I admit.

I feel the warmth of another body from beside me. I turn my head slightly to find Calum sitting in his previous spot.

"Well I have to go, see ya." Ashton gets up from his spot and walks towards the school.

"Hey you."

"Hey." I smile slightly.

"What's wrong?" He seems a bit worried.

I didn't want to bring up Hally right at this moment, but I couldn't help it. Not knowing about her and Calum is bothering me, a lot.

"What is Hally to you?" I blurt quickly.

He's very taken back my the suddenness of the question, I can tell by his eyes slightly getting larger followed the way he looks very panicked. I can already tell by his body language I'm not going to like this.

"Well she's uhh..."
