*Chapter 2*

"Why didn't you tell me this earlier?!" yelled Zander.
I looked at the ground in shame. Not because I didn't listen to my brother and dated a boy, but because I lied to my brother. Again.
Just in case you were wondering, no. I did not tell him about my real relationship with Sam.
Let me backtrack.
After the whole event with Sam and my brother, Zander told me I had to explain when we got home. The whole day I avoided everyone who was in the situation.
Especially Sam and Zander.
Right when the last bell rang, I bolted out of the school.
I ran home, locked the door behind me, grabbed a pop tart, and ran to my room.
I sat on my bed, ate my pop tart, and waited for what was coming.
My eighteen year old brother. Oh boy.*
I waited for about 10 minutes when I heard a car door slam and someone,( I think it was Calum), yell "what the fuck dude!"
I gulped. I knew it was him.
I heard the front door unlock and slam shut.
I quickly got under my covers and closed my eyes.
I heard loud stomps on the stairs then my room door slamming into the wall from being opened to roughly.
He was here.
"Kamryn. Get up." He said.
I shook my head no. He sighed." Please."
I took off the covers and got up. I slowly opened my eyes and looked at his chest.
I was too nervous to look him in the eyes.
"Explain."
I took a deep breath. Just tell him, Kamryn.
"Explain what?" I asked.
No Kamryn! Wrong answer.
Oh shut up me!
"Don't play dumb, Kam." He knelt down on one knee so we were now the same height.
"Who was that guy?" He asked.
"I told you already," I stuttered. "He used to be my lab partner."
In my defense, this was not a lie. Sam and I were lab partners for half of this semester.
"Nothing else?"
"Nothing else."
Zander looks at me for a second, his face unreadable.
"Why didn't you tell me this earlier!?" He yelled.
This is were we left off. No more backtracking.
I looked at him with disbelief.
"How could I have told you when you're yelling at me and not letting me talk!" I yelled back.
"Kam, I'm sorry. You know how I am!"
"I'm sorry too. For not telling you and avoiding you!"
Now we were just yelling at each other for no reason.
Then my room door slammed open. Once again.
"Why the fuck do you guys keep yelling?!" Calum shouts.
Zander gasps. "Precision of language Cal." He said in a motherly voice.
I smiled. Zander and him love quoting The Giver.
"You guys are idiots." I said.
"Yeah, but we're your idiots." Calum said, smirking.
I glared at him. God, I hate you so much.
"Okay lovebirds, I'm gonna order some take out." Zander said leaving my room.
I think I just gagged a little in my mouth.
Zander left my room leaving Calum and I together. Alone.
Yippee.*
It was really awkward.
Calum closed the door and sat on my bed cross legged.
I gulped." What are you doing?"
"What?" He asked innocently. "Can't I speak to Kammy in private?" He bit his lip.
I couldn't help but to check him out. Stupid hormones.
He was wearing a black muscle shirt, clearly showing off his muscles, and black skinny jeans.
I could also see his, MMXI, tattoo on the right side of his chest.
He sure has gotten cuter.
"Is Kammy checking me out?" He laughed as I blushed.
"No." I stuttered.
He was about to say something else when my phone rang.
I looked at the caller ID and groaned.
Of course it had to be Sam.
I really need to delete his phone number already.
I turned off my phone and saw Calum starring at me very intently.
"What?" I started to say before he cut me off. "I know you guys went out." He said.
"How?" I asked quietly.
"I heard him talking about it with some guys during lunch."
Of course Sam would talk and brag.
He can't ever keep his mouth shut.
If Zander heard about this at school, right when I just lied to him about it...
I would be so dead. "Calum, you can't tell Zander." I say worried.
"You and I both know I can't keep that promise." He said. With a smirk.
"Calum please." I begged.
"Fine."
I let out a relieved breath.
"But," He grinned.
I frowned.
Of course there's a but. There's always a freaking but with Calum!
"What do you want?" I ask impatiently.
"You-" was all that came out until the door opened.
"Calum, your grandma just called. She lost the remote again." Said Zander.
Calum sighed as he got up. He high fived Zander as he turned to me.
"I'll see you later Kammy." He winked at me and left.
I'll be making a deal with the devil.
A hot, mean devil.
Stupid hormones again.






Hey guys! Thank you so much for reading the second chapter. It means a lot to me. So this is kinda giving me a filler vibe. So it might be a filling chapter. I'm sorry! I just wanted to get a chapter with Calum in it. And Zander! Speaking of Zander, the guy at the beginning of this chapter is the guy who plays Zander. I will get started on the next chapter soon.
Q: Who is your favorite character so far?
