Beside You

Chapter Eleven

Calum's P.O.V~

I was woken up by a buzzing next to me, I ignored it for the time being, it was probably a text from Summer. She's a really nice girl, but I have other things on my mind. Like how Luke was being really blunt with me last night and wasn't being his normal self around me. Maybe I was over thinking and he was just tired. I looked over at the sleeping boy, he honestly looks so cute when he's sleeping, almost hot even and- god damn it Calum you've got to stop it with these thoughts.

Luke may be bi but you're not gay.

You so might be gay, you know flirting with Summer felt wrong. You know flirting with Luke felt so right. You know you felt guilty for not kissing him when you had the chance.

God dammit!

I slapped myself on the head to stop this mental argument I was having with myself. Wake up Calum. Ok so I may be confused with my sexuality... How do I work this out? My phone buzzed, again, next to me snapping out of my thoughts. I picked it up and unlocked it

From: Summer ;)

Hey! X

-

Are you free today? There's something you should know.. X

I sighed and replied

To: Summer ;)

Yeah I'm free, where do you want to meet? X

I pressed send and waited for an answer.

From: Summer ;)

The coffee shop down from the house, I'm already here, I can wait though x

Jeez, desperate.

To: Summer ;)

I'll be there in 10 x

I pressed send and locked my phone, getting out of bed and speedily got ready. Throwing on my skinny jeans, Cobain shirt and beanie. I slipped on my shoes and picked my phone up off the bed.

'Where you going Cal?' Luke murmured sleepily, shit I didn't mean to wake him

'Didn't mean to wake you mate, sorry' I apologised changing the subject, he rolled over, turning his back to me.

'Whatever. Have fun with her.' I flinched, why did that hurt so much? I blinked back tears and walked out the room.

'But I'd rather stay with you' I whispered so only I could hear.

~~

I entered the coffee shop and sat opposite Summer, she smiled at me.

'I love your Cobain shirt' she smirked, ha ha

'Funny' I replied flashing her a smile 'so what you wanna talk about?' I asked her

'Theres something you should know..' She trailed off and I forced a worried look on my face 'I don't know how to say this' LORD

'Just spit it out' I said, oops attitude, I smiled a little, trying to minimise the affect, hopefully it worked.

'I shouldn't of flirted with you yesterday Calum.. Back home in America, I have a boyfriend' I frowned, but it was forced, and I don't know why.

'Oh' I said, fuck yesss, wait what? Nows not the time to be thinking about being gay Calum, pull yourself together.

'I'm sorry Calum, please understand' she said, leaning over the table, to quickly kiss me on the lips. Well that felt wrong, and it wasn't because she had a boyfriend. I started to laugh. Wait why am I laughing?

'Its okay' I smiled, no no no no.

'It is?' She asked confused, of course it is.

'Summer-Jane, I'm gay' I laughed even more, god those words felt so right.

'Oh' was all she said, and she got up and left. Leaving me sat there, stunned at my own words.
