Chapter 15

(i wrote this while listening to remixes of songs so i kept taking dance breaks)

I literally have to drag Calum out of the cafeteria as everyone is either laughing or trying to high five him. We finally get into the hallway and I hit his shoulder as hard as I can.

"Micropenis having ass!! Really Calum!" I try my best to serious but you have to admit it was a little funny. Super rude and mean but really funny.

"Sorry sorry! Just kinda came out I guess. You should know by now how I get when it comes to you." He says looking down at me with a smile on his face. I smile back and look away from his intense glare and go to sit against the lockers. He sits beside me and we both look at each other.

"So how do you think I am doing so far with the whole winning you over thing" he asks leaning back with a smirk on his face.

"You've been doing pretty well seeing that you've had competition all day," I say without thinking. His face changes in confusion.

"Competition?"

Should I tell him that Ashton had been doing the same thing to me throughout the day? I don't want to make him mad but I'm curious to see how he will take it. He wanted to win me over so I should see how far he was willing to go.

"Umm, yeah Ashton's been kinda doing the same thing today" his eyes darken as soon as I say those words. I don't know if he's going to blow up in my or not. I hope one day I'll be able to read his emotions better to I can learn which version of Calum I'll get. I see is eyes soften a little and sigh to myself knowing it's going to be okay.

"Did I at least do better than him?" he says grabbing my hand and I could instantly feel my skin heating up. He never fails to make me feel like I'm on fire.

"I'd say great so far but the day isn't over yet is it," I say with a smirk and he instantly lights up holding my hand tighter. I could get used to this Calum so easily. The one that's so lovely and makes me feel like the most special girl in the world. I could stay with his forever like this but you never get this one version all the time. Even though he is loving now it doesn't mean that he isn't destructive other times. I'm just not sure yet if I'm willing to be in the middle of a hurricane even if the inside is peaceful.

"So how long do you think ill have to work for you to trust me better?" I look up at him and I realize just how close we are. Our legs are brushing against each other along with our shoulders. Our hands are still intertwined and my head is slowly learning to rest against his shoulder.

"Well that all depends on what you do to get me to trust you. We have all the time in the world, so there isn't a need to rush." I smile at him but he frowns a little as if I gave him the wrong answer.

"I mean yes we have nothing but time but I don't want to waste a minute of it with you worrying about the next time I'm going to fuck something up I guess." I can see that he really wants to work harder and I really should give him a real chance to prove himself.

"Then it's up to you change my opinion," I say brushing my thumb against his knuckles a bit just to show him I wasn't going anywhere. I see him smile at my action and I decide to rest my head on his shoulder finally while the moment is still happening.

"I'll try my best to be good enough for you baby girl" His head rest on top of mine and in that moment it just felt perfect. It was just us two in the world and we didn't have to worry about anyone else. But of course we couldn't be there forever and the bell had to ring for us to go to our next class. I let out a sigh and let go of hand so I can stand properly. He follows my actions and gets up with me. I brush myself and turn back at him and be goes to grab my hand again and we both walk to class.
