Beauty Is In The Eye Of The Beholder

Part 5

10:00 AM
"Babe?..." Calum whispers in your ear as he lightly shakes you awake.
"Leave me alone." You say, You felt like a brick was dropped on your head and your stomach was killing you, You had been up all night puking and you were exhausted, You just wanted to sleep all day, By yourself.
"It's New Years Eve..." He says.
"And?" You say with a rude tone in your voice.
"The girls are trying to make a celebratory breakfast..." He says.
""What is your point Calum?" You asks in a harsher tone.
"The girls are burning the pancakes. Can you please come save them?" Calum asks, innocently.
"Please? You need to eat something, laying in bed all day is just going to make you feel worse." He says
"I'll be there in a minute." You say with a sigh, Calum leans over and tries to kiss you but you hide your face, He lets out a sigh and just walks off.

You let out a groan as you pull yourself up out of the bed, You throw on one of Calum's shirts that were laying on the floor, it was fitted like a dress on you so you didn't bother with putting on pants. You tied your hair up in a bun while walking out of the bedroom and into the kitchen, Where nothing was even being cooked, No one was even in the house, You walked through the dining area where there was food everywhere, You began walking outside when you tripped over a random balloon on the ground.
"What the fuck?" You mumble to yourself.
"SURPRISE!!!!" Everyone yells, Making you jump and yell As they throw confetti and balloons at you, Everyone starts laughing at your reaction while you stand there confused, Grabbing your head, as a sharp pain shoots through your brain. You just looked around for a second trying to piece everything together... It wasn't your birthday or anything you could think of in that category.
"Happy anniversary." Calum says as he walks over to you with a rose, giving you a kiss on the cheek.
"It's not our anniversary." You say
"I know, But it will be in a few days... I decided we should celebrate it here with everyone." he says.
"Why?" You ask blankly, It was silent and you could feel the awkwardness in the room as everyone just sat around looking at you and Calum, This was obviously not the reaction they were expecting from you. You just sit there looking at Calum and Calum just looks at you confused.
"What did i do to make you hate me all of a sudden?" He asks in a whisper., You opened your mouth to tell him exactly why you were angry with him, But Micheal cut you off just in time.
"Why don't we......... Um..." He starts as he begins looking around like he's trying to find something..
"Um....Ugh.... Not.. Listen to their private conversation?" He says trying to turn everyone's attention. Everyone began walking off into different directions, Leaving you and Calum alone.
"Ask Arzaylea." You say, as you walk off, You walked into your room, slamming the door behind you, You could hear nothing but the birds outside your window, Everyone in the house filled it with silence.
"Anyway happy New Years Eve.." You could hear Mikey say out in the living room.
"Shut up Michael." Ashton says.

12:00 PM
You sat on one of the pool chairs, reading a book, Eveyone's mood was lightened, and seemed to forget about earlier that morning, But your mood didn't change. The girls were in the pool talking as they swam around, The boys were either playing pool or or beer pong, Calum was sat with Ashton as they talked bout something. Probably about you.
"Cut him some slack yeah?" You hear Mali say as she sits in a chair next to you.
"I think you've upset him enough." She adds.
"I just want to know the truth." You say.
"You already know it!" She says.
"Calum told you everything. The truth. Arzaylea didn't." She adds.
"Just go talk to him." She says.

You looked over at him, He looked so sad, Staring at the ground, You couldn't imagine how confused he must be. You were hurt and you hated that Arz was making you feel this way. Calum told you she was jealous. And you knew she was and that's the only reason she's trying to get between you and Calum So why couldn't you just get it through your thick head, that Arzaylea was lying.

You got up and walked over to Calum, He looked up at you and you put your hand out, He looks at it and then at you and you give him a half hearted smile, Him giving your one in return as he gabbed a hold of your hand. You lead him into the house, and into your shared bedroom, You sat him down and you stood infront of him.
"I need you to tell me the honest truth, And i mean the HONEST truth." You say
"Did you sleep with Arzaylea?" You ask.
"NO!" He says, He was shocked that you would even ask him that question.
"I told you i didn't! Is this why you've been so angry with me?" He Asks, Shouting.
"Stop yelling." You say.
"STOP ACCUSING ME OF SHIT I DIDN'T DO!" He says, He was standing up now, About to walk out.
"Where are you going?" You ask, grabbing his arm.
"I'm sick of this! Your falling right into her trap!" He begins

"The whole time we've been here she's been nothing but an ungrateful little bitch and you've done nothing but stand up for her! And now you're going to take her side and believe everything that she has to say??" He yells
"Please stop yelling." You say
"Stop being so stupid! Stop letting her walk all over you!" He yells.
"Kinda like how you're doing right now?" You ask.
" Don't! Don't you dear turn this back on me! Don't you dear make me look like the bad guy! I've done nothing wrong!" He yells. You take a step back from him, feeling a bit angry yourself, you didn't want to say anything else to make him even more angry.

"I fucking love you and would do anything for you! I would never ever cheat on you especially with a skank like Arzaylea!" He yell's, Even louder.
You just look at him as tears welled up in your eyes. You've never seen him so angry and he's never spoken like that. He shakes his head in disbelief.
"It really makes me feel great to know that the love of my life can't even trust me." He says softly.

"I guess it was a waste to get this." He says as he tosses something on the bed, You just stare at him and he shakes his head as he scoffs and walks away, Leaving you alone in the room.
You began to cry as you looked at the object on the bed. You knew exactly what it was the moment you saw it.

It was an engagement ring.
