Lost (Book 1 - Cake Series)

Chapter #8

Calum walked in next morning. I had already made breakfast and was waiting for him to arrive.

"Breakfast is ready, come eat Cal Pal!" I giggled, extremely happy and energetic for some reason.

"Okay," he said slowly and walked near the table. "What did you do to it?"

"Uh. Why do you think I didn't something to it?" I asked and looked at him, folding my arms. Then I rolled my eyes.

"Well, I don't know. You've done stuff in the past."

"No I haven't. I've never done anything to any food you've eaten. Drinks, I may have drugged them to get you high, but I have never done anything to your food."

"I'm never drinking Pepsi again, all because of you. Thanks a lot," he replied sarcastically. He walked to the table and began to eat.

I pulled out a vodka bottle, filled with water, and drank the whole thing in front of him. Then I began to act drunk.

"Hey Calum, come on. Hurry and eat!" I squealed and tugged on his shirt collar to hurry him up. "Besides, I want to have fun when your done."

He choked on his food and pulled away. "You drugged my food, didn't you?"

"No, I didn't!" I giggled. "You can trust me, Cake." Whoops, it slipped. Anyways!

"My name isn't -" He froze.

"So? Who cares! I just want a piece of you." I began to pull him to my bedroom.

The cat's back in the bag.

"No, I'm not in the mood." He pulled away and walked to the couch, then sat down.

I sat on his lap, with my body pressed against his. "Come on, baby. Just one go, that's all I'm asking for," I whispered into his ear.

He froze. "No."

"One go, that's all." I giggled.

"No, go away!"

"Then I'll get Luke over here, have him go."

"No!" He shouted and pushed me off. "No, you're not going to get Luke!"

I giggled again. "Why not?"

"Just - because!"

I watched him leave to go to his room.

They should Face Time each other. I thought and smiled. I pulled out my phone and called Peyton.

"I've got an idea for Ingredient Five. Come over ASAP. I have it."

"Be over in a few."

As soon as she hung up, the front door opened and in came Peyton. "I was waiting for you to come up with it."

"Pull up Skype and search in Hemmo336, then call with your earbuds in. Make sure that Calum can't hear just yet."

She pulled it up and did as I instructed, and made sure that the earbuds were in tight.

"Hey, Luke!" She whispered. "Don't say anything, I want to show you something secret."

I saw him nod. Then he waved in my direction. I waved back and smiled, then put my index finger against my lips, making sure that he'll stay quiet.

He nodded again and covered his mouth. I smiled and gave him a thumbs up, then made my way to Calum's room.

"Come out here, Cal. I want to show you something."

"You weren't really drunk!" He said and flipped around. "Were you?"

"No. Now come here! I want to show you something that I know you'll love!" I began to pull him out of his room and into the main room.

He came into view of Luke.

"Calum!" Luke squealed out.

Calum looked at the computer and immediately smiled.

"Hey Luke! How have you been?" He asked and sat down at the seat.

"Great, I guess. I really miss you!" Luke replied and sighed. "I've been through a lot lately, and I really hoped you could help me."

I made my way over to Calum's room and took his blue dog that Luke had given to him.

I came back out and held it where Luke could clearly see it.

"You - you -" He paused as tears began to roll down his cheeks. "I bought that dog for you because it reminded me of you, I didn't expect you to get it."

"You didn't send it to me for my birthday?" Calum asked and sounded extremely confused.

"No. In complete honesty, I lost it a few days ago and had been looking everywhere for it. I've questioned Adilyn, but Ashton said that she wouldn't have took it."

"Jackie was planning something earlier, she kept saying that she was baking a cake, but I don't understand a word of that."

"Adilyn has been saying something like that too. She was talking about sending ingredients or something like that."

I pulled out my phone and immediately dialed Adilyn's number.

"They're on to us," I whispered so quietly, I knew either boy couldn't hear.
