Don't worry about me// Calum Hood

Chapter 8

"Here you go Blue" Michael said as he passed me a beer.

I held the bottle in my hand and debated whether I should even drink it. I decided to just take a sip to see how it tasted. I mean it couldn't be that bad right? I opened the bottle and it had this vile smell and tasted just as bad. It was probably one of the worst I have ever tasted. I made a face and I guess Michael noticed and said, "That bad huh? You know you don't have to drink it right?"

As I opened my mouth to say something I heard this loud cheer behind us. We turned around and it was some poor girl who was wasted out of her mind taking her clothes off in the middle of some guys. I looked around and I saw Calum on the other side talking to that girl again. I was enraged, so all I did was pick up my bottle and chugged it.

"Blue I thought you didn't like the.." he said as he saw why I had done that and continued "Oh. Blue I know Calum and you are not in good terms, but you came with me. So do me and yourself a favor and let's try to have a good time. Please."

"Your right, now hand me another beer" I said as I threw away my empty bottle.

"That's more like it! What do you say and we get drunk tonight!"

"Sounds like a plan" I said as I pulled Michael out of the kitchen so we could dance. I wasn't much of a dancer, but tonight felt like I should just let go and not focus on the negatives. It seemed that I had convinced Michael that I was having a good time, but I'm not so sure I was convinced myself.

As the night went on Michael and I started dancing closer and closer. I didn't really think much of it and that's when I felt someone shove me. "what the.." was all I could say before I saw the unmentionable person.

"Well,well,well look who we have here. The groupie? Did you get tired of Calum already? Seems like these boys like sharing" said the repulsive Rose.

Before I opened my mouth to say something my hand made a fist and punched her on the nose. I just heard people gasp and looked at my fist covered in blood. I felt Michael pull me away and said, "Let's go before things get worse."

"I'm not leaving! I want to have a drink" I said stubbornly.

"Fine! Let's go to the kitchen" he said as he forcefully took me to the kitchen.

We then continued to drink and acted like complete idiots. I would look around and for some reason every time I looked I saw Calum staring at me. I started to wave at him and he waved back. When he waved I then switched to flip him off. His smile faded. I had no idea at this point what I was doing and I didn't feel good so I asked Michael if we could go.

We were in the front lawn and we both had trouble walking. I didn't even realize how much I had to drink and now I was starting to feel it. Michael was probably worse since he had drank way more than me.

My main worry was how the hell were we supposed to get out of here if we had trouble even standing up. I was about to fall when someone caught me from behind. I couldn't help but laugh uncontrollably. I guess I was a happy drunk.

I turned around and my laughs came to an immediate stop when I saw it was Calum. "What are you doing?" I slurred.

"Taking you and Michael home because you guys are too drunk to drive back to the hotel" he said as if it were obvious.

"I'm not dru..." was what I managed to say before I threw up chunks next to Calum. He pulled my hair back and rubbed my back until I was done.

"So now will you let me take you to the hotel?"

I just nodded.

"Good morning" Calum said sitting at the side of the bed.

"Go away Calum!" Calum? why the hell is he here in my room. I sat down on the bed and rubbed my eyes. Clearly this wasn't a dream.

"No this isn't a dream you're here in my hotel room" he said.

"In your room? What happened?"

"You really don't remember what happened?"

"No. ugh I just feel my head pounding so could you please whisper" I said as I rubbed my temples. "Could you please fill in the blanks" I said as I noticed I had my fist all purple. Then I remembered how I got it. "Oh god! I'd kill to see how she looks now" I said as I laughed.

"Oh good you remember doing that" he laughed. "So tell me what you remember and I'll fill you in on the rest" Calum said calmly.

"Well I remember that I had a couple drinks with Michael, danced a little,punched Rose in the face and puked in front of you. Sorry about that by the way" I said as I blushed. "Frankly that's all I can remember."

"Really you don't remember anything after that? Not even what you told me last night when I put you to bed."

"No. What did I say!" Oh god please tell me it isn't as bad as I think it is.

"Ok."
