[A year later]

I'm not in school anymore, I left campus after the second month of being there. I was beginning to show a bit too much. Although, I am still in the school system, just sending everything through e-mail and such now. I occasionally Skype with Ethan and Jake, just to stay in contact. Same goes for Allison, although she comes down and visits more.

I'm home now, my sister found out that I was preggers. It got harder to hide, but everything is okay. Allison was right, I can't wait till he/she comes into this world.

Actually, I almost forgot to say, I'm having a boy. I went to check up and I took an ultra sound and he is already an amazing little boy. I already love him.

If you're wondering what I'm naming him, I won't be saying, not until he is officially in this world.

And Calum? Well, after that night at the party, I guess when he woke up with me not next to him, he knew it was time to move on. I haven't talked to him since and I think that's a good thing.

Even though Calum hurt me, I wish nothing but the best for him. He is an amazing guy, just sometimes not knowing what's right from wrong. I'll be completely honest, I still love him, he was the best guy to have around. I just wish I could find it somewhere in me to forget about him.

*Calum*

One year. That's how long it's been. A year ago, I lost someone that meant the absolute world to me. How? One night of a bad decision.

After the night at the party, I woke up and she wasn't there. I knew that what I did was a big thing and that I wouldn't get her back. So instead of looking for her and explaining myself, I left and went back to Notre Dame, just like she said and ever since then, I haven't looked back at all. I've simply tried to forget, but it's hard to forget someone who once meant a lot.

Now I'm going back home, I haven't seen my mom and sister in so long and I think I need home for a bit.

So while thinking all of this, I'm actually on a plane back home now. I know this is like saying a lot, but I've actually wrote a song...about how I felt with her. I told my sister about it and she wants to hear it, although, she's still mad at me for what I did, so I'll possibly be going home to a slap in the face, or a few.

[A few hours later]

I walked inside, "I'm home!" I shout throughout the house as I put my bags down, seeing my sister come up to me and hugging me tight.

"I missed you Cal." She said softly, like she was about to cry.

"I missed you too Mali." I said, hugging her back just as tight. I let go and seen my parents coming, that's when Mali slapped me across the face. I heard my mom gasp. "Mali-Koa!" She exclaimed.

I turned back and looked at Mali. "That is for what you did to Tara. I know she didn't do it to you, so I am." She said then stepped aside.

"I deserve that." I said then moved forward, hugging my parents.

"What did you do to Tara, Calum?" My mom asked me and I only shook my head. "Calum Thomas Hood, you will answer me at this minute." She demanded.

I sighed softly, "I-I cheated on her..." I mumbled, looking up at her.

She shook her head, then she walked away, not saying one word to me. I grabbed my bag and went straight to my room, grabbing my guitar and sitting on my bed, taking out the lyrics I wrote and playing it to myself.

I was mid-chorus when Mali walked in, causing me to stop.

"Is that the song?" She asked, looking at me from the doorway.

I nodded, "Yeah." I wrote the song about a month after everything, then I added the guitar and well now it's something that's stuck in my head. The only one that knows about it besides Mali is Luke. I guess Tara told Alli about what happened and she told Luke and well Luke talked to me about it. He was pretty disappointed in me, he was kind of the guy I went to when I needed to talk and I was his in return. Through Luke is how I knew how Tara was doing, I was happy that she was doing fine, but I was also sad that it seemed she acted like everything we did was nothing.

"Are you going to tell her about it?"

I shook my head, "No. It's just a song Mali, that's all it is. Nothing more."

She shook her head and came in, sitting next to me on the bed and picking up the sheet that had the lyrics written on it. "It's not just a song Calum. Finish singing it and listen to what you're saying in it."

I looked at her for awhile, I fixed my guitar on my lap and started strumming the chords. I didn't need the lyrics, I memorized them by heart. I started singing and once I got to the chorus, I realized what Mali was talking about and throughout it, my heart started to ache and I felt hot tears running down my cheeks. I kept playing, all the way to the end. Once I was done, I was broken all over again. I'm the most stupidest person ever.

I let her go and never fought.

A/N

So I'm actually thinking of where I'm leading this, also of when I'm ending it and whether I want it to have a sequel for it.

If you guys have any requests or endings you think, leave them in the comments, I honestly really want to see what you guys think, it could actually give me inspiration. I might even use it if I like it.

Vote, Comment, Etc.

I love you guys xx
