Douchette // l.h

ten.

I woke up extremely hungry, due to not eating dinner last night. I glanced down to see Calum's head sprawled over my stomach, mouth slightly ajar, and small snores falling from his plump lips. My hand fell to his head, my fingers running through his messy hair. He seemed to snuggle in my touch. He was so adorable. I reached over to the bedside table where my phone was, grabbing it with my free hand. 5:45 am. Early enough to eat a breakfast before school starts.

I did my best slipping out from underneath Calum without walking him. He stirred slightly, but remained asleep. Success. I snuck into the bathroom and did my daily morning routine before excusing myself downstairs.

The kitchen was illuminated with the early morning sunrise. I began my journey to the food pantry, grabbing a box of sugary cereal and pouring milk in afterwards. It didn't take long for me to empty the contents within the bowl. I began aimlessly strolling through Vines. I came across a multi-male edit titled with "bringing sexy back". Flickers of shirtless Damon Salvatore, Kol Michaelson, Scott McCall, and Bellamy Blake flashed across the screen.

"Nicole," I jumped at the sound of my name. "And here I thought I was the only guy you looked at."

I quit out of the app as quickly as possible, facing a laughing Calum. I felt heat rise to my cheeks.

"Oh shut up! As if you don't check out other girls." I rolled my eyes and crossed my arms over my chest.

"Baby there's no need to look at other girls when I have one hella hot girlfriend." His arms wrapped around my shoulders, pulling me into his chest.

"Ha-ha, you must think I'm stupid." I remarked. "I see you look at those Victoria Secret commercials on the TV."

"Someone sounds jealous." Calum smirked. His hand tilted my head up, allowing his face to be inches away from his. His lips found mine in a quick motion. My hands found the bottom of his shirt, fisting the material in my hand. I could feel the slight trace of his tongue against my bottom lip, making me open and give him access.

"Honey," I pulled away from Calum quickly when my mother's voice rang through the room. "Please don't do that down here. You guys can do that in your room."

I felt my cheeks blush. Not awkward at all to have your mom walk in on you making out with a boy. Note the sarcasm.

"Sorry mom." I quickly apologized, not knowing what else to say.

"When were you two going to tell me about you dating?" My mother questioned, not once looking at us as she continued to prepare a cup of coffee for herself.

"We aren't-" I began but Calum cut me off.

"Over dinner Mrs. Flores. You ruined our surprise." Calum had the biggest smile on his face, making me want to reach up and pinch his cheeks. He was adorable.

"We should probably getting ready for school." I grabbed ahold of Calum's hand, tugging him back upstairs into my room. Once I closed the door to my room, arms were wrapped around my waist. "Cal I need to choose my clothes for school."

He let go me quickly, getting ready himself. I changed into a black v-neck shirt and light-washed jeans in my bathroom. Calum argued to join me, but I refused. Last thing I needed was a horny Calum trying to make us late to school.

"Here." Calum handed my bag over to me as I slipped on black Vans. I slipped mine over my left shoulder and walked downstairs and out of the house with Calum close behind.

English went incredibly slowly. The teacher kept talking about Shakespeare and it was putting to me sleep. History was also boring, minus the funny jokes Calum and Samantha kept making.
