Calum groaned as the sun peaked through the blinds, disturbing him in his slumber. He turned over from his side onto his back. He rubbed his eyes, he then rested his arm behind his head. He couldn't remember anything from last night.

Most likely he took a girl home.

He looked over and saw the girl peacefully asleep. Her back was turn towards Calum. Her brown hair was peaking through the blanket as it was wrapped around her.

He sat up quietly, trying not to disturb the girl. Calum stretched as he watch the waves hit the sand. He got up, and he grabbed his boxers and put on a shirt that was thrown on the other side of the room.

He walked over to his dresser, that had a mirror. He was putting on deodorant, when he looked up and saw that the sleeping girl was awake. She was resting her head on her hand, smiling at Calum.

"I had a great time last night." She said. Calum nodded as he opened a drew to grab a pair of sweatpants. "I was wondering if yo-." The girl started to say. Calum knew what was coming.

"No."

Calum said as he finished putting on his sweatpants. He walked over to the bathroom to brush his teeth. The girl was now sitting up on the bed, with the blanket covering her bare chest.

"C'mon, Calum were great together." She said.

Calum spit the toothpaste residue from his mouth. He turned off the water, and placed his toothbrush back on the holder. He walked back into the room. The girl was watching Calum's every move. He picked up her clothes and tossed them on the bed.

He walked over to the door, that led to the hallway. "Calum." The girl said.

Calum had the door already opened. He sighed heavily, shutting the door. He turned over to the girl. "Look." He said as he walked over to her. He got close up to her face. "I already told you I don't date, I just have sex. Now I want you to shower and leave. Delete my number from your phone and don't ever call me again." He growled.

The girl was speechless. She nodded her head still holding the blanket against her bare chest. "Oh, and don't forget to cover up those hickeys. You don't want your mom to freak out don't we?". He said with a smirk. The girl nodded as she grabbed her clothes and rushed towards the bathroom.

Calum walked down the hardwood stairs, causing it to squeak a bit. He got to the bottom of the steps. He looked over to see a pass out Luke on the couch.

Calum shook his head. Luke was the type of guy who could never control his drinking, Ashton and Michael were the "dads" when it would come to going out. They would always tell Luke to settle down on his drinking or they would always tell Calum to stop taking advantage of girls.

Calum walked into the kitchen to find Michael. He was sipping on coffee while he was on his phone. Michael acknowledged Calum's presence but didn't look up at Calum. Calum walked over to the cabinet to grab a Tylenol and a bottle of water.

Michael still didn't say a word to Calum.

He put the pills in his mouth, and swallowed it down with some water. There were footsteps coming down the stairs. The footsteps stop and someone cleared their throat causing both boys to look up. It was Calum's girl.

"Um..I just...yeah bye." The girl said shyly and rushed out the door. Calum took another sip of his water sitting down on the stool. Michael sighed. Still not looking up from his phone. "So she was the lucky girl behind door number 36." He said sarcastically.

Calum rolled her eyes not wanting to deal with Michael's jokes. Michael put his phone down. "So just because one girl said no to you last night, you decided to jack up another girl." He said looking at Calum.

Calum rolled his eyes. "No girl ever says no to me." He said taking another sip of his water.

Michael sighed. He placed his hands on the island in the kitchen. "Look Calum, not every girl is going to throw themselves into bed with you." Calum slammed his water bottle down. "I don't care!" He said with anger.

The boys looked over at Luke, who still was passed out on the couch. Calum closed his eyes and sighed. "I don't care." He said in a calmer tone. He ran his fingers through his messy hair, he then looked up at Michael. "I don't care about girls throwing themselves at me. I don't need those girls." Calum scoffed.

Michael sighed quietly, and then looked at Calum with care. "So what do you want Calum?" He asked.

Calum sighed. He opened his phone and showed Michael a picture of the girl who said no to him last night. Michael looked at the picture and then at Calum. He was confused.

"I need her." 

"I want her."

Calum said.
