Calum.

16

We went back to my house. I plopped down on my bed and Calum sat next to me. "Thanks for taking me out, I really had a great time." I thanked Calum.

Calum insisted that he go home and try to fix things with his parents. "Calum, you can stay here again, you know that right?  Calum, you can stay....please don't go..." I pleaded with him.  He had the blankest look on his face and shook his head "Fine...okay, I'll stay." 

Calum and I sat watching Tangled next to each other...rather close. Arms and legs together.  Before I say anything else,  that's what  was broadcasting on TV.  That night me and Calum stayed up watching movies all night.  It was really early in the morning, I was tired...so I slept. 

When I woke up,  I was snuggled into his side.  Calum arm was around my newly woke body.  He was in a deep sleep.  I made my way out from under his arm while trying not to wake him up.  I covered him up in a blanket. Why? I don't know... I made my way downstairs and into the kitchen.  My parents should be back any time soon. 

I grabbed something to eat and stepped outside with my food. I used my cell phone to call my parents and see where they were. "Mom? Where are you guys?" I asked through the device.

"We'll be home later tonight, right now we're in Toowoomba, we're still getting stuff organized..." she talked for another seven minutes before our call ended. I walked back upstairs and saw Calum folding the blanket I wrapped him under; with the most blank expression on his face.

"Calum...are you okay?" I asked him leaning on the doorframe. He looked up at me with a look that was essentially unreadable. "...Cal?" I sat down next to him. "I can't stay here anymore... I just can't..." He trailed off looking into space.  "Calum...of course you can...what's going on with you?"  I asked him holding his hand in mine.

Calum pulled away and looked me in the eyes. All in that instant if a moment he crashed his lips on mine.  That's when I realized his hands were on my waist, and he pulled me close with his strong hand. I returned the kiss. 

After that Calum pulled away, grabbed his bag, and left.
