Tuesday came and I'm stuck alone in classes, Calum wasn't around. I knew he wasn't coming, remember how I thought he acted different. Maybe he was sick. I swiped my phone out and texted Sexy Mikey maybe he knew where the monkey is and I also asked him what Calum's number was.

'His sick. So sick of you. You don't give great pleasures'. This kid needs to learn his He's and His first. I swear I could sense him smirk through the text. I rolled my eyes at his stupid reply and shoved my phone back to my pocket.

"Hey" Steven greeted leaning beside my locker.

"Sup?" I answered, not really interested on what he was was going to babble about.

"Nothing. Just wanted to talk" he shrugged. He moved from where he was and now in front of me. He leaned in. Closer. Closer. And closer.

I swear I could feel his hot breath on my lips, his eyes started closing and I felt his heartbeat.

He leaned in.

How on earth was I supposes to get this guy away from me? Get a boyfriend? Shit. That's it! Oh my god, help me in this decision I'm about to make.

"Hey, Uhm, Uh- St-Steven. I-I'm, hey! I'm with Calum" I managed to say. He looked startled and took a step back. His blue eyes looked like they were about to pop. He looked so shocked that it was starting to be funny.

"You're with that dork?"

Oh god help me.

I don't wanna die yet when Calum finds out what I just did.

I'm too young to die.

"You what?!" Calum's voice boomed through the phone, followed by a muffled cough.

"Hey, chill. You're sick, you shouldn't be screaming so much" I rolled my eyes and looked down at the sidewalk. I was on my way to his place, that's why I asked permission from him. Then I kind of just told him what happened earlier. I thought that telling him by the time I got to their house wasn't such a good idea, I could've got strangled and that telling him through the phone would be safer because he'd cool off by the time I got to their place.

"Don't tell me to fucking chill, now the whole school's gonna say things about us!"

"You're over reacting! And I panicked ok? I wasn't going to let him kiss me, I barely even know the guy" I hissed at the phone.

"Every girl wants to be kissed by Steven Evans" I heard shuffling and I knew he was standing up, there was the sound of unlocking too so I assumed he was going to come out.

"Well, not me. Just open the fucking door already!" I whined, I was already at their front door and he was taking so long. I've been talking to him the moment I got out of school, long conversation I must say. A very long conversation. I didn't hung up and kept the phone held on my ear, we were still talking. The door opened revealing a messy haired Calum. He looked so different, but good kind of different though.

"Aren't you going to hung up yet?" He asked through the phone. I rolled my eyes and snatched his phone from him, ending the call and throwing it on the couch. I sat on the other couch and shoved my phone back to my pocket. He stood there at the front door with his mouth hung open. "Hey Cal, you had a haircut, didn't you?" I asked him, finally figuring out what looked so different.

He closed the door and went back to the living room collapsing on the couch and snuggling on his pillow with a tight grip on his blanket. He pulled it up just above his nose, leaving just his eyes. He curled up into a ball and I swear he was shivering. "Yeah." He nodded,"Why?"

"Looks good" I shrugged, "but no more bangs and long fringe" I pouted at him staring at his brown eyes, he rolled his eyes and looked back at me, "don't look at me like that Al, its as if you're undressing me with just your eyes" he answered while closing his eyes. He hugged his pillow tighter and took hold of his blanket.

"Eh?" I tried to ignore his stupid comment, "Geez Cal, is it that cold?" I asked him because of how much he was shivering. He just stayed quiet. I walked towards him and touched his forehead, "Damn Calum! You're fucking hot" I gasped.

"I'm aware of that. you just tried to undress me with your eyes a while ago, how am I not supposed to assume that I'm hot?" He smirked. Is this guy really sick? I think he isn't. Can I hit him now? I shrugged his answer off my mind and asked him, "Does your mom know?" I sat on the floor, one leg crossed over the other and placed a hand on the couch.

"She's n-not around. And d-don't w-w-worry so much, I'm f-f-fine" he rolled his eyes and scoffed. He was feeling so cold, he was shivering to death. This kid needs to take his medicines. The fact that he was already so sick, still he can afford to keep his pride high.

"I'm trying to help here?" I waved a hand in front of his face.

"F-f-fine" he had no choice, he couldn't take care of hisself right now. "W-W-What c-can I do f-for you?" I mimicked him, he shot me a fiery glare and I pinched his cheek in return. I stood up and dusted off my skirt, I was still in my uniform.

"St-S-Stay" he whispered. I kind of liked the sick Calum, it made him a bit less mean. And it was cute.

"What?" My I hung my mouth open and furrowed my eyebrows.

"I said, s-st-st-stay here" he patted the couch, just beside him.

Who the hell am i talking to?

This isn't Calum.

Maybe Calum has a secret twin?

Maybe that's why he wouldn't let me in the last time I went here?

Oh my god.

"W-W-W-wha-" I wasn't able to finish my sentence because he pulled my wrist, causing me to collapse on the couch with him. I was facing a sick Calum, and I kind of liked it. He looked so cute. He wrapped an arm around my waist, the feeling of Calum wrapping an arm around me felt good, I felt so safe and protected. I snuggled closer to him and let him pull me closer. This was a very different Calum in front of me.

Oh shit oh shit oh shit
