The boy next door (Calum Hood fic)

Chapter 29

The minute we pulled away, everything was still, silent. You could probably hear a pin drop, and our eyes were locked on each other's. The moons light peaking out through the window, allowing a gradient glow to our eyes. It seemed as though time had stopped, for us to enjoy this moment. It was like, we were floating on our content that we had decided to kiss. We had forgotten there were people even in the room, only they were nowhere to be seen in front of us. We had finally snapped out of it, once we heard the door click open. It was then when me and Calum's eyes darted to the direction of where the noise came from, and our pulses raced.

"What are you two doing in here!" My teacher Mr. S, yelled so the peace and quietness that filled the room was broken. I got hot and soon enough, my eyes started getting watery, searching for an explanation. I looked next to me where Calum was, and his face was down to the ground with a slight quiver in his lip. I looked next to the two beds on opposite ends of the room were, and saw the eight other people that were in the room, hiding. Did they really just hide, so they wouldn't get busted? They left the pressure on me and Calum's backs. I searched their still faces for any sign of explanation of what just happened. Blank, and scared. I knew I couldn't bust them out either. It would be just better for me to take the blame rather than everyone else.

But, when I tried putting the words out, nothing came out. I was speechless. I knew what kind of trouble I would be in. I was in shock.

"I-I-I'm sorry. This is my fault. I'll take whatever punishment is needed. " I said finally answered the angered teacher at the door.

"Alright, then yo-"

"No, it was my fault. " Calum cut him off. I looked up at his eyes, that had as much fear as mine did.

I shook my head,"No, this is completely my fault-" I said while beginning to walk towards the front, but his hand gripped my wrist, to pull my attention back to him.

"Sarah, please. Just let me tak-"

"Both of you. " Again our attention was darted to the entrance.

"What?" I asked.

"Both of you, are in trouble. Now come here," Me and Calum looked fearfully at each other then slowly walked to the front. My palms sweating, and pulse racing. I was staring at the ground so I wouldn't have to face the infuriated teacher, and Calum's dropped facial expression. But, eventually when I reached the door, I had to.

I looked up with my red, sweaty face, seeing Mr. S just as red faced as me. I swallowed hard, then looked at Calum whose brown eyes darkened with fear.

"What were the two of you thinking?" Mr. S asked us. I tried looking for an explanation, but simply there was none.

"I-I-I don't know. I'm sorry. " The words came choked out. I didn't really know what else to say. I swallowed the lump in my throat and tried looking as innocent as possible up at teacher. His stare at me made me uncomfortable.

"Both of you. Come out here," We stepped out of the dark cabin, and into the fresh air. I shivered and crossed my arms. "Now you two do know the consequence for this," I shook my head, but I knew it definitely wasn't something good. I shift my weight from one foot to the other, looking bothered.

"The two of you are going to stay in a room inside the lodge and you will not be allowed to participate in any of the activities up here anymore. Instead, you two will help out in the kitchen and help out around the camp. This will be your punishment for the rest of the week. " The whole thing kind of surprised me a bit. I thought it would be more of a get-sent-home kind of punishment. But, I wasn't complaining. Though, I knew the rest of the week would have great things planned.

Me and Calum looked at each other, before going to pack up our things.
