The boy next door (Calum Hood fic)

Chapter 30

My foggy eyes made it harder for me to see which clothes I shoved into my bag, but I didn't care. I knew this would some how ruin the reputation I had. Part of me knew I should've busted out my friends, but I guess another part of me was still willing to take the punishment with Calum. I know the college I want to get into is difficult to get into, so I can only hope this bold move I made doesn't make a dent in my future.

It was only after I was sent to my room that the others scattered out of the cabin after me. Tired of shoving endless things into my duffle bag, I sat down next to my bed, and lay my head on the mattress that lay on it. I wiped my tears and continued, Mr.S was only giving us a limited amount of time to get our stuff together. Once I finally finished I just sat there, staring at the cabin that had clothes lying on the floor. I allowed a couple more tears fall before I had to head out.

Outside I saw Calum who seemed to be waiting to tell me something, and when he saw me his face fell. I think he could tell how puffy my eyes were from crying. Mr.S stood there with his feet grounded and not one sign of sympathy.

He walked us into the Cafeteria surprisingly, and walked us to a door on the far left. He stood aside and opened the door as if he was showing off something big, but inside was just two beds leaned against opposite sides of the walls, and a dresser. There was also a door. Which I assumed was a bathroom.

"You guys will be staying in here," Me and Calum walked in. The place felt so isolated and cold. I was surprised to know that we would be sharing a room, because after our big bust, I would've assumed the teachers wouldn't want us any where near each other.

"Now, your eating schedules will be the same, except for your day schedules you will be helping around here setting and cleaning things up. I hope you two learn your lesson. You guys have no clue what you got yourselves into," His words frightened me. This whole time it seemed like I was getting a reality check. I didn't know what would be happening next. At one moment I'm sharing this connection, love with Calum, the next I'm burning up with anger. I didn't know why I was feeling this pit of anger inside of me, but it just grew. I didn't want to talk to him. Let alone, share a room with him. But then again, there was also myself to blame. To let myself get into this whole mess in the first place. I knew the prices I had to pay, yet I didn't listen to the conscious inside of me.

I felt as though it was better for us to distance ourselves from each other. I knew we were both feeling pretty content with ourselves while the kiss was happening, but then just some unknown hatred sparked in me. I wasn't in the mood for his love. As well as it got me in this place. Because I knew as soon as I got close to him, something would come and bite me back.
