Calum and I just talked about how our lifes have been since we've been apart. His was exciting, and mine was depressing. After he got done telling his story, he asked what I've been up to..Oh...y'know, just starving myself, hating myself for missing you, and doing what I do to get rid of the voices, cutting myself...Nothing, really. I thought.
"Not much." is all I said. Then, my phone started ringing on the table to my left. I reached over to grab it, when the sleeve of my shirt pulled up. I quickly tried pulling it back down, but he already saw, and grabbed my arm, making me unable to answer the phone.
"What the fuck Melody? Don't you remember our promise? Did it mean nothing to you?" He said, anger in his voice. If he's going to yell at me, then I'll yell right back.
"Of course I remember the god damn promise! Do you know how hard that kind of promise is to keep?!?!? Of course not! You're some famous hot guy in a band, who gets everything they want! Of course you don't know what it's like to be depressed! You don't understand, Calum! I fucked up, okay? I shouldn't have made the first cut, but what the fuck else am I supposed to do?!?!? I have no friends, no family, I haven't went to school in years, I'm poor and i've been locked in this damn hell whole for months! I've went completely insane! You don't know how addicting it is, it's like a drug, to release you from the emotional pain, once you do it, you stop thinking about everything for a while and feel relieved, and that's what I need." I calmed down by the end. He came a little closer to me, and wiped away the tears on my cheeks.
"I'm so sorry Mel, I didn't know. I'm such a fucking dick for making you upset. Fuck! What kind of man makes a woman cry?" He said, getting up and punching the wall. I brought my knees to my chest, I was so scared.
"Cal, please..." I said in a small voice, he looked at me and his face softened.
"Mel, I-I'm sorry, don't be scared baby, you know I would never ever hurt you..." he said walking towards me. He sat by me and tried to hug me, but I flinched.
"Mel? Wh-what's wrong?" he asked
"I'm scared, Calum." and then I began to sob into his chest. Of course I was scared of him, but something told me that he wasn't lying when he said he would never hurt me.....phisically.
"It's okay....it's all going to be okay..." he whispered. By this time, it was getting dark.
"Cal?" i said softly.
"Yes?"
"I-I'm tired..." He let go of me and let me lay down, he got off the bed and tucked me in like I was a child. I giggled.
"Calum, I'm not five." I said smiling. And whenever he saw my smile, he smiled back.
"Cal?"
"Hmmm?"
"C-Can you sing me a song?" I asked. His voice was on of the thousands of things I loved about him.
"Sure" he smiled. He started singing a cover of When We Collide.
You say 'I love you boy',
I know you lie,
I trust you all the same,
I don't know why...
I love his version of that on YouTube. His voice is just one of a kind, absolutely amazing. Before I fell asleep, I heard Calum say,
"Goodnight, Melody."
He give me a kiss on the forehead and walked out, shutting the door behind him. For the first time in my life, I fell asleep with a smile on my face. He makes me happy.
-So their ship name is Melum since Malum is Michael and Calum lol or if you can think of anything else I guess ? ?
