REMEMBER // Calum Hood

Sixteen // no one

I hear the the door cracking open and Calum's muffled footsteps. I open my eyes just enough to see Calum fresh out of the shower walking through the room. He is only wearing his black sweat shorts and a cheeky grin on his face. It is a nice view to wake up to.

"Was about time" Calum comments once he sees I'm awake

He throws the towel he was using to dry his hair aside and joins me in the bed.

"You wake up too early" I whine trying to brush the sleep out of my eyes

My alarm is set for 7a.m. and it hasn't gone off yet. Why is he awake that early in the morning?

"You smell like soap" I say snuggling myself into him

"You sleep way too much" He replies pecking me on the lips "Life is too short to stay in bed"

I snort at him. Sleep is one of the wonders of life.

"But the best things in life happen while in bed, Calum"

"I couldn't agree more" He chuckles

"I was talking about sleep" I tease pretending to sound innocent

"I bet you were"

We share a meaningful look and our smiles meet. It's comfortable and brings a familiar feeling. The type of feeling you can't ever get enough of. As if I could ever get enough of Calum.

"You'll be late" Calum says once I close my eyes again

The pillow smells like him and that's enough to make me want to stay here all day.

"What time is it?" I groan with eyes closed "Why are you up so early?"

"I had enough sleep" He says while I breathe in his cologne on the pillow underneath me

"There's no such thing as enough sleep" I tell him

I feel the bed shift beside me and next Calum's arms are pulling me to his chest.

"How about I make us some breakfast while you get ready for work?" He suggests

His husky morning voice close to my ear is my new favorite thing.

"Are we married or something?" I joke and hear his glorious laugh

I crack my eyes open just to see his beautiful features. His head thrown back, the smile on his lips, the wrinkles on the side of his eyes, the muscles on his abs contracting.

"It's a tad too early to discuss marriage, Gia"

"I know, it's not even 7a.m"

I sit myself up copying Calum's position. His hair is still wet from the shower and his tanned skin looks so soft. Every day you start seeing Calum shirtless is a good day.

"It's too early to discuss anything" I add

"Even dinner plans?"

I eye him suspiciously. Where is he going with this?

"So I was thinking..."

"You're already good looking, you don't need to be smart too" I joke as I roll in bed to lay on top of Calum

"Nice" He rolls his eyes at me

"So what were you thinking?" I ask with my chin resting over his chest

"I was thinking I could make us some dinner tonight" He says "And maybe invite the boys over"

I don't even need to give him a proper answer because my whole face lights up and the biggest smile takes over my lips with his suggestion. Calum chuckles and I feel his chest vibrating below me.
