Protect Me (Malum)

Part One

oh hi der magnificent people! so MashtonCookies c: and i (lashtonpie) are doing a story together! okay so here is da beginning da dum tssss

Calums POV

I always wake up bright and early, but I guess today I just didn't. I woke up at 7:15 and school started at 7:30. I knew my mom wouldn't drive me, probably passed out in some mans bed. And my dad wouldn't, saying he's probably drunk off his mind right now.

I shot up from my bed, pulling on a pair of skinny jeans and a random hoodie. Then my converse. I didn't bother changing my pajama shirt, knowing I would get picked on either way.

I grabbed my phone off the charger and ran downstairs.

I don't have time for breakfast. I thought.

Though, I do have time to get my flowercrown. I ran by the table, picked it up, and placed it on my head.

I ran by the door and swiped up my backpack, then ran out. I tried to run the whole way, but my legs and lungs gave out about halfway there. I'm going to be late no matter what. And I'm going to be beaten when I get home no matter what. Why do I even bother?

I sighed, and just pulled out my earbuds, and played 'I Miss You' the cover by Blink.

This is what I wish I could do forever. Just walk around with my music. But unfortunately, that's not the case.

About 5-10 minutes later I get to school. I check the time, seeing at 7:34. Whatever.

I do try at school. When I get good grades, no A-s, my dad is proud. If I get an A- or lower, he's angry, so angry. He would yell names at me, beat me till I'm black and blue all over, or completely ignore me. If I'm lucky, I'll have the last one.

I go by the office and get a late slip. I fill it out on the way to my locker.

Time: 7:37 am

Name: Calum Hood

Reason Late: Woke up late

Date: 10/14/14

I slip it in my pocket and open my locker, grab my stuff for first period, and start walking.

I walk through the door, and everyone's eyes are on me. I don't like it.

Ms. Clare cleared her throat. "Calum, late slip?"

I nodded, handed her the slip, and sat in my seat...at the back of the room.

You see, I have one friend left. I used to have tons, but I'm left with one. And he's hanging on to me, loosely, very loosely.

His name is Luke. He's been there for me when I really needed him. But we only have one class together, so we barely get to see each other besides that class and lunch.

In first period, history, Ms. Clare was talking about same man back then. I don't know, I wasn't listening. That's when a boy walked in. a boy with purple hair.

I smiled a little.

Hello purple boy.
