Falling For Hood | C.H.

Chapter 41 : The Flirting Games

The sun is what woke up. Not the constant loud cussing.

I opened my eyes and squinted at the light pouring through my open curtains. I realized I was in my room, though I specifically remembered falling asleep on the living room couch.

Luke mus have carried me up here. I pushed myself off the bed and checked my phone. I had a text from Calum.

Calum: Good Morning :)

He sent me that message an hour ago, it was at eleven currently.

Me: Good Morning Calum

Calum: Feeling better?

Me: Yea I'm not hurting as much. So that's good

Calum: Just Glad you're okay

I smiled.

Me: Aww you do care :)

Calum: Of course I'd care!

Me; I care about you too, baby boo

Calum: Does that mean I can call you babe?

Me; If you want.

I locked my phone and walked into the bathroom. I took a quick shower and got out. I dried myself off and slipped on a 'My Chemical Romace' muscle shirt, black skinny jeans, and black combat boots. I blow dried my hair and put it up in a high ponytail.

I walked downstairs. It was quiet.

"Luke?" I called out.

"Luke." I repeated.

I reached the bottom of the staircase and Luke jumped out and screamed "Boo!"

I screamed and he burst out laughing.

"You little fuck!" I yelled.

"What? It was funny!"

"Where's mom?" I asked.

"Grocery store," He replied.

"What did you eat?"

"Eggs."

"Okay."

I also ate eggs.

My phone vibrated. I pulled it out and it was a text from Calum.

Calum: Babe ;)

I snorted.

Me: Yes?

Calum: Tell me the truth

Me: The truth about what?

Truth about what?

My feelings for him?

I'm not sure I can tell him.

"Who were you texting?" Luke asked.

I swallowed my water, "Calum," I replied.

He raised an eyebrow. He stared back at me and I dropped my gaze.

"Do you like him?" He asked me.

"Luke I'm not going to answer that."

"We'll see about that," Luke replied and disappeared behind the wall he was leaning against..

Something tells me this is going to lead to the truth coming out.
