latch :: calum hood (rewriting)

iii.

To my surprise I was able to sneak out to the party and back home without getting caught. However, that was really the only thing I was able to do the whole weekend, which seemed to drag on forever.

I stayed home, in bed, leaving only to stock up on snacks and use the bathroom.

Most of the weekend, I talked to only Michael and Luke. Ashton has been giving me the silent treatment ever since the party and he was doing a fantastic job at it.

Thank you to the new iPhone update that allows you to block someone's number because I am certain that's what he did to me.

Unfortunately for him, he is my ride to school, so once Monday rolled around, he was forced to talk to me.

I did apologize however. The night of party, I acted like a total spoil brat and treated him unfairly. I was being a bitch and letting all the anger I had towards Calum on him, and that was wrong of me.

"That sandwich is calling my name, Scar" Michael says, with his faces stuffed in food already. I slapped his hand away from my lunch.

The three of us sat in the back of the lunchroom, all the way in the corner where we no one truly went. It felt like we were the only four in the world and we perferred it that way.

"So Scarlet.." Luke began, swallowing the rest of his lunch. I cringe at the sound of him using my full name, which must've meant that he was asking me for something.

"Did you consider squashing your problems with Calum?" he asked, causing me to roll my eyes. I played around with the crumbs of my sandwich.

"I prefer that so called method known as 'ignore the person as much as possible.' I seem to be doing an amazing job at that in fact." I sarcastically say. All three of the boys let out a huge sigh in unison.

"What?" I ask, my eyebrows raised, peeling of my crust.

"C'mon Scar, we need to get the band back together. This is important" Ashton speaks up.

"I have a ton of other things to worry about, like my math test I have next period is important. This band, that only has 2k subscribers is the least of my worries right now." I huffed, shoving my sandwich away from me. I bit my lip looking at their reactions, of me being a complete bitch.

"Hate to sound like the dick here Scar." Michael says, "but are you sure you put your tampon in the right hole, because you're being really harsh right now."

Luke and Ashton snickered, not looking at me, avoiding the very harsh glare I was giving them.
"Okay that was rude, not every girl who may act like a bitch is on their period." I argued, "and this wouldn't be a problem if Calum never ruined everything." I continued, putting my hair behind my well pierced ears.

"Speaking of the devil" Luke looked in the direction behind me, causing me to turn around. Calum had a cheeky smile plastered on his face as he made way to our table. Exhaling loudly, I turn swiftly to face Luke.

"Hey there guys, and Scarlet." He says, greeting us all. The boys exchanged hello's

"Scar. I liked to be called Scar." I reminded Calum.

"Okay Lion King, I wouldn't want to hurt your feelings." He responds. I rolled my eyes at him as he decides to sit next me out of all people. He knew very well how to get under my skin, and I was letting him.

"So, where are we having band practice today? I miss my bass a little bit too much" Calum pouted. I raise my eyebrows at them, crossing my arms into my chest. The boys quickly groaned, swearing underneath their breaths.
