Ballum

Chapter 4

THE NEXT DAY

Callum squints as the light shines through the curtains right into his eyes. He rolls over to check the time and groans. He lays down and remembers the date he has planned with Ben. He suddenly gets an overwhelming feeling of excitement mixed with nervousness. It's been a long time since Callum went on a proper date. He suddenly jumps out of bed and opens his wardrobe. He starts holding up shirts and looking in the mirror. 'UGH! None of this is good enough' Callum thinks.

Stuart wanders in "What are you doing up so early and why are you trying on shirts?" Callum shoves all the shirts back in the wardrobe. "No reason" Callum walks past Stuart and into the kitchen. "Wait. Is it a date?" Stuart says smiling at Callum. Callum blushes bright red. "OMG! IT'S A DATE!" Stuart almost yells. "Fine. Yes it's a date. I met him on my shift last night." He finally admits. "Go on bruv" Stuart tells him ecstatically "I'm 'appy for ya."

After shutting Stuart up about his date he leaves the flat and goes to the market to see if he can find a decent shirt to wear tonight. He's unsuccessful and doesn't find anything he wants. Mo tries to sell something knock off to him as she usually does. He decides to give up and goes to the caff to get a coffee. He walks in and sees Ben standing at the counter bickering with the woman on the other side. 'Wow he's even more beautiful than I realised.' Callum says to himself.
