Sinking || Calum Hood

chapter 2

"so tell me about your little date" i sat across from my bestfriend, kayla, on our couch. she had recently gone over to her boyfriend, ashton's, house. 
"it was nice, we just watched a few movies and ate a lot of pizza, a few of his friends where there aswell" she spoke with such excitement it was almost childlike. 
"any of them hot" I joked
"theres this one guy who is exactly your type. he is tall, brown hair and eyes, he is really musical and is probably the sweetest thing ever." she smiles. "they are coming over here tomorrow night, after they all finish work. i want you to meet ash and his friends wanted free pizza. look half presentable please" she nuged my shoulder causing us both to laugh.

Ashton and his friends where coming over in about 10 minutes, i have no idea why kayla insisted on me staying . today was my only day off work this week, calum took my shift. i heard a knock on the door. 
"anna, honey, they are here get out of bed" she ran into my room and sighed, dragging me out of bed by my ankle, she went through my closet and pulled out a pair of tights and an oversized sleeping with sirens tee.
"put these on" she smiled. 
once i was changed i made my way towards the door so i could meet ashton. 
"ashton, this is anna" kayla smiled "anna this is ashton" he pulled me into a hug, he was taller than i was but not by much, i kind of awkwardly stood, not knowing what to do. luckily he pulled away before things got to awkward. 
"the boys are comming soon, they stopped to get pizza on the way. i bought movies, you guys chose" he wrapped his arm around kayla's waist and kissed her cheek as they both walked towards our living room. kayla had decided to watch toy story, her and ashton where curled up on the floor, sharing a blanket. i on the other hand was being very "elegant" and "graceful", i was laying across the couch with one arm over my eyes and my legs hung over the arm rest. 

i didnt hear the knock on the door, but i was disrupted by what sounded like 3 male voices coming from our kitchen.
"put the pizza in the living room luke" i heard kayla giggle "michael, the bathroom is on the right"
"fuck" i hear a male voice huff under his breath as he stumbles over a pair of my shoes. i look up and see a tall boy with dirty blonde hair and deep blue eyes, he held a few boxes of pizza. i sit up. 
"coffee table's there" i point to behind where the awkward boy is standing. "i take it you're luke?" he nods "im anna, im kayla's best friend, have a seat" i nod towards an empty chair as ashton and kayla walk in. they take their place on the floor again, underneath a blanket making googly eyes at each other.i laugh as luke pretends to gag. 
"shut up hemmings" ashton sighs. 

michael came next, he walked out of the bathroom with a rather large grin on his face. 
"guys i just took the most amazing shit ever, i apologize anna but you might need a new toilet." he laughed and sat next to luke. "ohhh" he says as he see's me " i didnt realize we had someone else here, sorry, im michael" 
"anna" i reply. i assumed that everyoune was here because we had nowhere else to sit, well besides the other half of the couch i was laying on. but i wasn't moving especially when i say who came out next. he held a glass of water and was dressed in sweat pants and a loose tee, i almost didnt recognize him. 
"anna, this is c...." kayla begins to speak. 
"calum" i say, confused as to why he was here. 
"anna?" he questions.
"you two know each other?" ashton asks. 
"yeah, ugh we work together" cal walked towards me and i sat up, allowing him so sit.

his facial expressions changed the moment he saw me. his once grinning face was replaced by the same blank, emotionless expression. i knew he hated me, i didnt want him too and i didnt know why, but he did. it was uncomfortable, i could tell he didnt like the idea of me being here. 
"uhh, I have to study," i lied "i have a huge test tomorrow" i quickly got up and walked to my room, grabbed a book and layed on my bed. i read for a few hours before i drifted off to sleep. 

my alarm clock woke me at 8 the next morning, shit, i thought, im going to be late to uni.
"morning sleeping beauty" kayla giggled. "i have something to tell you" 
"not now" i rushed to put a pair of jeans on, i wore the same shirt i did last night, and headed out the door. 

-

i went to work straight after uni and was greeted by the same emotionless calum standing at the door. "why did you leave last night" 
"i went to sleep" i sighed and pushed past him "why do you care anyway?" 
"i dont". 

work was un eventful, as always. calum stood behind me as i locked the door. 
"ready to go princess" he mocked
"i am going home, calum" 
"no, we are going home" he smirked. 
"what"
"i talked to kayla last night, i need a place to stay and you guys need help with the rent" he followed me as i walked away. "sorry princess, but im your new roommate.
