Callum POV

Liam and I were getting closer. We were together almost every time.

After our first date 3 weeks ago, we've spent more time together every single day. He picked me up for school and dropped me off after. We always had lunch just the two of us at school. And on the weekend we usually hang out together.

He often invited me to watched cinemas or dines out with him. Or sometimes we just chilled out at Edgar's Café or Liam's apartment. Turn out Liam was living alone in a luxurious apartment in prestigious area in our city. Rich people sure were different.

I didn't care anymore about Liam's rumors. I didn't believe any of it since I knew him in person. Liam was actually a very gentle guy. He understood and accepted me the way I was. He was there for me when I needed someone. The guy could make me happy and I could forget about Mason when I was with him.

Being with Liam was a real comfort for me.

I also had forgiven Liam about his blackmail act. He had apologized to me about it. He said he didn't mean to do it. He wanted to get my attention and pursued me but he knows that I was in love with someone else. He didn't want me to reject him so he used a way that he could think off at that time, which was using blackmail.

Listened to his reason made wanted to tore my hairs out at him but I decided to let it go. Because when I think it back again, his blackmail was an empty threat for me too. As long I was with him he wouldn't dare to snitch about me to Mason. So it didn't matter to me anymore.

About Alaina, Mason, Dylan & Eli, it wasn't that I was forgetting about my friends. It just, I haven't talk much with them, especially with Alaina after our fight weeks ago. This was the longest time for me and Alaina not being close to each other.

Alaina had confronted me once, to remind me about Liam. She hated the fact that now I was getting further away from the group but getting closer to Liam instead. But I didn't want to listen to her crap about him so I brushed her off.

I think Alaina felt upset and angry with me because of that. She didn't called me or texted me anymore. At school she was only glaring at me when I was with Liam. She even ignored me if we had classes together. So I let her be. Maybe it was better like this so I didn't need to explain anything to her.

Eli, since he was the only friend from another school, we only texting or calling to each other. But now we weren't do it too often like we used to be. Liam didn't like it when I was texting with someone whenever I was with him, especially Eli. I didn't know why, maybe he was jealous?

One time Liam had sulking with me and gave me a warning to delete Eli's contact if I keep texting Eli right in front of him. That was the cute side of him, so I obeyed his demand. I was only texted Eli behind Liam's back, which was hard to do now since Liam
and I were often hangout together.

And I also decided not to tell Eli about Liam as in 'Liam Blackwell' that he hate. It could only made thing worst than it already was. Eli didn't like Liam from the start because of the blackmail incident. What would he do if he knew that both Liams turn out were the same person that he had warned me before? It could be disaster.

Dylan, well, being Alaina's boyfriends of course he choose her side. I think he also felt a little upset with me because I was choosing to befriend Liam instead listening to his advice. But unlike his girlfriend, Dylan never did once ignore me in school. If we had cross to each other or in a class together he kept saying 'hi' to me and asking me how I feel, which I really appreciated it.
