lost and found // calum hood

30 | Elizabeth

As I woke up, I felt a warm body lying next to me and I could inhale a familiar scent of cologne. I opened my eyes and the first thing I saw was Calum.

I had no idea how we ended up so close together, but I was lying on my side, my head rested on his shoulder and my left hand on his bare chest. We were so close to each other, our bodies were tangled together. His arm was wrapped around my waist, holding me even closer.

He was basically a space heater and I was sweating up against him, his scent spilled all over me. I carefully pushed the blankets aside, because he was literally radiating heat and now that I've woken up it was getting quite uncomfortable.

He was still lying motionless with his eyes closed, so I figured he was still asleep. I didn't want him to wake up and see us lying in this...particular position, so I decided to move as far away as possible. Carefully I moved my hand from his chest and tried to peel his strong arm off my side.

Suddenly, Calum shifted in the bed and turn around, his back now facing me. I panicked, scared that I had awakened him, but after soft snores escaped his mouth I started to relax.

I rolled over to the complete other side of the king size bed and grabbed my phone as I started to scroll through my messages. My twitter and Instagram mentions have been blowing up ever since I arrived in Paris, so I turned off mentions from people I wasn't following.

Luke had posted a picture on Instagram with Ash on it and had tagged me in it as well. A soft smile appeared on my face. They all were so incredibly kind to me. I liked the photo and started to scroll through the pictures I had taken last night.

Most of them were pictures of Ashton being completely shitfaced, or me and Michael doing snap chat filters. Calum and I took a few pictures as well.

After laying there for about half an hour, waiting for Calum to wake up, I decided to go and take a shower and get dressed. He wasn't going to wake up any time soon.

I grabbed my clothes from last night and went into the bathroom, locking the door.

Stepping into the shower, I removed all my makeup with the hot water and a washcloth, being frustrated that I didn't have my makeup remover products with me. Of course, I used Calums shower gel and shampoo as well.

Now I officially smelled like Calum Hood.

After a while, I turned the shower off and got dressed. Once Ashton wakes up I would have the chance to change in actual clean clothes and do my hair, but for now, this was fine.

I walked back into the bedroom and saw Calums brown eyes look at me.

"Morning. Sleep okay?" he asked with a raspy morning voice.

"Well good morning sleeping beauty!" I said with a smirk. "Yeah, thanks for letting me crash here," I said and he smiled at me. "Pleasure," he said and got out of bed, grabbing his cigarettes from the desk and walked over to the balcony.

He lighted one of his cigarettes and stared at the horizon for a while. He once told me that he wasn't a morning person and it was clearly showing. As he was smoking, I took my time checking him out. He was still shirtless and now I had a good view of his back muscles.

I thanked God that he didn't know about the weird position we were in when I woke up, I didn't want to make our friendship uncomfortable for any of us.

After a few minutes when was done smoking, he came back in, dropping himself on the bed again and looking at me with his chubby cheeks and bed hair. "Order room service for breakfast?" he asked. I smiled at him. "Duh, you know me so well. Make sure they bring orange juice." I told him, before sitting down at his bed.

------------------------------

The day went by really fast. That's the shitty thing about going out, the next day everyone will sleep in till noon and you've ruined your entire day.

Around 4 PM everyone was awake and we dragged ourselves to the Eiffel tower. Ashton was the only one who really had a hangover, the others were just tired.

We took some pictures at the Eiffel tower and Andy did his usual little photoshoot with the boys, which was great. After that, everyone kind of split up. Michael saw an ice cream truck and got really excited, so now he and Crystal were waiting in line, Ashton en Sierra went to get closer to the tower and I've lost Andy and Luke. So it was just me and Calum again.

For some reason, I couldn't bring myself to smile much today, and no one really noticed it.

Except for Calum.

I could see him staring at me out of the corner of my eye. His eyebrows pushed together, his mind deep in thought. I diverted my gaze as his eyes met mine. Staring straight ahead, I waited a few seconds before turning to look at him. He was studying me, his lips turned just slightly upward, a strand of hair falling in front of his face.

He looked adorable.

"You okay?" he asked carefully.

He'd been bouncing around all day, being his usual ball of energy. I loved that about him, he can go from this hyperactive kid to this really protective soft man in a matter of seconds.

I shrugged.

"I'm leaving tomorrow night," I said.

It was the thing in my head that had bothered me from the moment I woke up in his arms until now. Calum bit his bottom lip, sitting down next to me on the bench.

He let out a deep sigh. "I know," he whispered as he grabbed my hand. "I don't wanna go."

"Sudden words are hard to speak," he said. I looked up to him, he had the biggest grin on his face. I let go of his hand and pushed his shoulder. "I hate you. Stop quoting your lyrics."

"Sorry. That one was too easy," he said. "I don't want you to go either. The past two days were amazing. And way better than face time." he said. As we spoke, he started to grab a cigarette.

"Man, you need to quit smoking," I told him and he shrugged. "I smoke when I'm stressed, let me be."

So I let him.

"Anyway. The tour is almost over, after that I can come to visit you whenever you want, or you can come to visit me and the boys in LA."

A small smile formed on my face. "That'd be amazing."

He put his arm around my shoulders. "How about this, instead of going out with the boys, we're just staying in, ordering pizza, watch a movie?" he said.

"Sounds good. But we're doing facemasks as well." I told him and he raised an eyebrow, so I tapped my finger on his nose. "Gotta clean out those pores, my friend."

"You're crazy," he said and I stuck out my tongue. "You love me."

He never answered, he just smiled at me.
