Lost Alone In The Dark ● Calum Hood fanfiction ○

Chapter 5 ● I don't wanna play your games! ○

"So, what is it Truth or dare or Darren says? Choose before I make the choice for you" Darren asks. "Truth or Dare" Calum says finally giving in. "Hmm great choice. So what is it gonna be Truth or Dare?" Darren questions. "Truth" he answers. "Aw you're no fun" he says. "I chose truth so give me a truth question" Calum replies. "Okay fine, were you ever suspicious of why you kept wanting to have a conversation with Valley even after you never saw her for years?" Darren asks Calum. "Well yes, it's not possible that I can still be so determined to talk to her for so long that's not how it works" Calum replies.

"Your turn" Calum says. "Sorry, I forgot to mention this before starting the game but you're the only one with turns. I don't have any" Darren says. "That's unfair" Calum says. "I decided to play the game so I make the rules Hoodie" Darren says. "I didn't even want to play in the first place, and don't call me Hoodie" Calum replies. "I can call you whatever I want to call you" Darren says. "Well then I'm not gonna respond to your stupid pet names again" Calum says back to Darren. "You're gonna have to though" Darren says.

"I don't have to do anything" Calum says. "Oh yes you do, Truth or Dare?" Darren asks. "None, I'm not playing" Calum says. "You are playing whether you like it or not" Darren says. "NO I'M NOT!" Calum shouts. "You do as I say or face the consequences" Darren says in a threatening manner. "No" he says. "You're so stubborn but I'm a lot  more stubborn than you" Darren says. "Well too bad you're not gonna have it your way with me" Calum replies. "I think that'll be the opposite actually. I'm the one who's more powerful and you're gonna be the one who learns to listen to me Honey" Darren says.

Calum doesn't reply he's so done with this Darren dude. He doesn't even know if he's a real person or someone he just imagined in his mind or maybe he's dreaming of this random dude and he's still asleep. "Oh I'm very real alright" Darren says. Now Calum is more confused than ever. He's sure he didn't say what he was thinking aloud. "And yes I can read your thoughts" Darren says. Calum doesn't know what to believe anymore these days. "Truth or Dare?" Darren asks. "I'm not playing this dumb game" Calum says. "Of course you are" Darren says. "No" Calum says. Darren then makes Calum's head pains worse.

Calum holds his hand to his head as the pain in his head is unbearable. "I can make it hurt less if you do as I command" Darren says. "I'm not gonna" Calum says. Darren makes Calum's head hurt much more and the pain becomes way too much for Calum to handle. Calum then passes out. "Oops!" Darren exclaims. "I shouldn't of done that I forgot he's just human" Darren mutters.

It takes Calum five hours to gain back his consciousness. "Ugh finally took you long enough" Darren says. "What happened?" Calum asks. "Your headache made you pass out" Darren replies. "Well, I've never passed out because of a headache before so I'm guessing you had something to do with it" Calum calls Darren out on his mistake. "Yes actually silly me I didn't realise you were just a human so I accidentally made your head hurt too much for a human to handle" Darren responds. "What are you on about?" Calum asks. "Oh... you don't believe that supernatural creatures exist in the real world, right?" Darren asks. "Yep they only exist in fiction, but to be honest I don't know what to believe anymore" Calum replies. "What if I told you I was a supernatural creature?" Darren asks. "I would run away but you'll probably catch up to me really easily so I'll just distract you instead" Calum says. "So you believe me?" Darren says. Calum ignores him.

"You believe me you just don't want to say it" Darren says. "How else would you be able to read my thoughts, make my head hurt and all?" Calum asks. "Clearly a human can't do that" he adds. "That's true" Darren says.

"So you wanna play Truth or Dare again?" Darren asks. "Why do you even bother to ask when you're gonna force me to play even if my answer is no" Calum replies. "Fine, you're gonna play Truth or Dare with me now" Darren says. "What's your pick?" He asks Calum. "Truth" Calum replies. "Ugh why can't you pick dare?" Darren complains. "You're gonna make me do something I'm gonna regret if I pick dare" Calum responds. "Okay than truth it is but next round I pick for you" Darren says.

"Why haven't you touched your phone once today?" Darren asks Calum the truth question. "Well I was unconscious for five hours and I didn't want to bother my friends" Calum says. "I know there's more to it" Darren responds. "Fine I don't want them to know I'm talking to this person I've never seen before who just happens to annoy me so much and forces me to play his stupid games" Calum replies. "I mean you didn't have to talk to me if you didn't want to" Darren says. "I was scared and wanted to reassure myself that everything's gonna be okay" Calum replies.

"But is everything okay?" Darren asks. "No everything is far from okay, it's icy cold on the good side and it's burning hot on the awful side" Calum replies. "Oh so where playing hot and cold now" Darren says. "Yeah how about I guess where you're talking to me from and you tell me whether I'm closer or further to finding out how you're talking to me hidden from me or not" Calum replies. "Nah we're still playing Truth or Dare. And I pick dare for you" Darren says. "No" Calum says. "You are playing Calum" he says. "NO WAY IN HELL AM I GONNA PLAY ANYTHING WITH YOU AGAIN!" Calum shouts.

"Well you have to or I'll make you pass out for another five hours" Darren says. Calum doesn't want to lose another five hours of his time. He knows he'll never get it back and he'll rather spend them conscious with this creep around rather than unconscious with this creep around. "I dare you to message your friends telling them that you fainted because you had a headache today and didn't wake up for five hours and make sure they believe it" Darren suddenly tells Calum.
