I sing loudly to the sound playing through my room, not caring since it's only Ralph and I here. Mom said she would be back Monday. I was a little scared to be by myself for so many days. It was knew to me. I was never home alone. When I was done, I take my time getting out and drying off. As I brush out my hair, I hear my phone vibrate. I pick it up to reveal several texts.

Calum:
Hello?

Calum:
I can hear you.

Calum:
You're really good but I caNT FUCKNG SEE YOU MAH

Calum: 

Maybe shut your window next time if you dont want an audience how loud do you have to be jeez

I walk out of my bathroom and make my way to my window and open the blinds and I see him. He waves at me and I do the same. He texts me again and I shake my head.

Calum:

Emily:

Calum:

Emily:

Calum:

Calum:

Calum:

Calum:

Hello Emily

I put the phone down, shaking my head. I have decided, I like playing with Calum when it comes to things he wants. It amuses me. I shut the window and the curtain and I hear him shout at me. I walk over to my dresser and I pull out the clothing pieces I want. Shorts and a blue tank top. I slowly drag my shirt over my head, tossing my towel somewhere behind me and I continue the rest of my after shower routine before reopening my window.

He sits out and pushes open his own window. "You're such a bully, I don't like you." He says.

"Yeah, you do. You like to pretend you don't, but you do." I say and smile. I hadn't heard from him all afternoon. I won't lie, I was hoping I wouldn't until tomorrow.

"No."

"Yes." I say.

"How do you know?" He asks me.

"You told me." I say and he freezes, thinking of his next words.

"How do you know I didn't lie?" He asks me.

"Did you lie, Cal? I'm awesome and likeable, admit it." I say and he huffs.

"Apparently I already did. Can I come over, please?" He asks. "Is your mom home? I saw her leave with suitcases."

"If you saw her leave, why would you ask if she is here?" I ask him and he rolls his eyes.

"Sassy pants, answer my question." He says and crosses his arms.

"You can't." I mimic his stance and he falls over the window sill.

"Emily, god, lady," He groans loudly. He falls off the seat again and I smile wider  He peeks his head over and I can only see his eyes. "Please?" He begs me with puppy eyes.
