Sister - Michael

     You and the boys were currently watching 'Tangled' for the 7 millionth time at your house. You were sitting between your brother, Calum, and your boyfriend, Michael comfortably, enjoying the warmth of your blanket. You and Michael hadn't told Calum about your relationship yet so you both held hands underneath the blanket while watching the movie. Once Tangled was over, the boys played some mindless sitcom that you had no interest in so you slowly feel asleep on Michael's shoulder.

CALUM POV

I looked over to see my sister y/n snoring softly on my best friend's shoulder. I chuckle and adjust the blanket so that it fully covers her shoulders.

"She looks so small and innocent while sleeping." I say to Michael fondly.

"Yeah, I should take her to her room." Michael says. I frown.

"As if. No offense but i'm not letting you touch my sister Michael. I'll take her up." I rejects.

"Why don't you trust me with her?" Michael says in offense.

"Jeez, Michael, she's MY sister!"

"Well, she's MY girlfriend!" Michael shoots back. As soon as the words are out Michael regrets it and Luke and Ashton groan.

"Really, Michael? You couldn't hold it back?" Luke asks.

Y/n POV

You wake up to the sound of shouting.

"How could you do this Michael?! Really? My sister?!" Calum shouts. Michael just stares at the ground in defeat.

"Calum, calm down." Ashton tries to calm down Calum but to no avail.

"What's going on here?!" You ask.

"Y/n how dare you date Michael without telling me!" Calum roars.

"Calum, I swear we were going to tell you we were just-"

"Shut up y/n! You have no right to date without my permission!" That. That is what sets off the ancient time bomb ticking inside of you.

"You have no right! You have no right to tell me what to do! It's always been you and Mali! You and Mali this, you and Mali that! The truth is that nobody in this family has ever cared about me nearly as much because I'm just mom and dad's little mistake! So shut up because you don't get to decide who I do or do not date." Angry tears stream down your face despite your attempt to hold them back.

"Y/n you weren't supposed to find out th-" Calum starts

"Not find out? I've known since I was thirteen, Calum! Michael was the only one I could talk to because sharing an opinion on this family is like inviting hell's wrath! So don't you dare try and pretend to care about me now because you don't deserve to." All of the boys are now staring at you in shock so you rush out the door and go to park. You had to be alone.

CALUM POV

"Shit." I mumble after y/n walks out the door. "I screwed up didn't I." Ashton sighs.

"I think you owe an apology to y/n and Michael mate." Ashton says. I sigh, thinking of a way to apologize to Michael before going to the park for y/n. It's where she always goes.

"I'm sorry. I overreacted. You and y/n seem like a really great pair... I was just shocked because I never thought that..." Calum isn't able to come up with words to talk with.

"It's okay mate. I would probably do the same thing if I was in your place." Michael says. This just makes me feel worse because Michael is handling it better than I am. He extends his hand towards me

"So you're cool with me and y/n." I realize that he was being mature for y/n. He was staying calm all for y/n. I pull him into a hug.

"Absolutely. I trust you. I would continue hugging you but I have to go get my little sis back." Michael laughs and things feel normal between us again. I run out the door and go to the park. But first I had to go somewhere else.

Y/N POV

You sit on the swing, sniffling and wiping away your tears with your sleeves. Eventually, you give up because your sleeves get too wet. You close your eyes and lean your head against the chains holding the swing in place, letting the anger and sadness flow out throughout your eyes, the fresh air caressing your face and making you feel better.

"Y/n?" You hear from behind you. You turn around slowly to see Calum standing there with a pack of gummy bears.

CALUM POV

My heart cracks straight down the middle when y/n looks at me with tear stains on her face.

"What?" She ask softly with a cracked voice. I gulp and take a seat on the swing next to her.

"I fucked up." I softly whispered.

"Okay..." y/n trails.

"I'm sorry I wasn't there for you. I'm sorry I didn't tell you about the thing with mom and dad. I'm sorry I screamed at you and Michael. You guys are great together. I just never thought he would get the guts to ask you out. You are the best mistake to ever happen to me. Mom and dad are just jerks. Mali and I wouldn't have it any other way. We love you. I promise." Y/n cries but I'm afraid she'll get mad if I touch her to wipe them off.

"I love you too, bubba." I smile at the cheesy nickname she used to call me as a child. I get on the ground and extend my arms for a hopeful hug. She sniffles before jumping into them and hugging me tightly.

"Let it all out." I whisper and she cries into my chest as I hold her.

"Thank you. I never cared about mom and dad I just wanted to know that you loved me because you and Mali actually matter to me. And then Michael came along and we became friends, but then recently he asked me out and I just-"

"It's fine you don't have to explain. I understand. I apologized to him and it's all good now." She sags in relief and then leans back.

"What are the gummy bears for?" She asks, our demeanor turning back to normal. I had completely forgot about those.

"Remember when and Mali amd I would sneak out after bedtime because mom's food tasted like shit and eat these? They're your favorite." She smiles goofily and the happy spark returns to her eyes.

"Of course I remember. I still eat them sometimes." She says.

"We can eat them on the way back." I offer. She jumps up and grabs the pack of gummies. I get up and by the time we're home, all is forgotten and the gummy bears are gone.

Y/n pov

You happily walk home with Calum, anxious to see Michael. As soon as you walk in the door, Michael hugs you close.

"I'm so sorry I told him. It just slipped out and I-"

"It's okay. I'm glad you did." Ashton and Luke join in on the hug.

"What about meeeee." Calum fake whines and joins in. You softly peck Michael on the lips and all of the boys immediately jump 10 feet away, pretending to gag and vomit. You and Michael simply laugh at their childish behavior.

"Okay, clearly there has to be rules here." Calum says. You walk up and give him a kiss on the cheek, making him smile. Everything was perfect.
