Sweet Escape // Calum Hood

7. YOLO

The bell rings, everyone rush out of the class with excited faces. I put my books back to my backpack and head out from the class. I made my way to Calum's locker, but then it makes me think again. He won't be there because he always missing every last period. But I still do it anyway.

To my surprise, Calum is there standing in front of his locker taking all his books from the locker and put it in his bag. He doesn't recognize me yet, so I decide to take advantage of it and close his eyes with both of my hand and tip toeing because he's so tall.

"Guess who?"

"Barack Obama!" He answers. "But he's not that short."

"Ohhh Barbara Palvin." He guessed. "I told you to stay in my bed this morning."

I smack his head as an 'ow' rolled out of his mouth. "You moron."

"Oh god, you just smack my brain out of my head." He said with his arms on the air.

"Oh yeah, that means you don't have brain anymore." He just laugh.

"I'm sorry for your loss, Calpal."

"My brain is the last thing that I have... you... you just killed it." He fake cried as we make our way to the parking lot. Everyone looks at us like they have just received an envelope with an acceptance letter from Oxford University. Disbelief is so clear on their face.

We finally reach Calum's parking spot, being a gentleman he is, he open the driver door and leave me there stand up waiting for him to open the door for me. He open the car window and say, "God gave you hands to open the door."

"Thank you so much." I say in sarcasm as I sit on the passenger seat.

"Your welcome, banana."

"Where are we going, unicorn?" I looked at him who's focused on the road.

"We're going to a Coffee Sho-- No, we are going to this diner, it's so popular in this town, I bet you'll like it." He said.

"Oh I'm so excited." I said with a flat tone.

"Cheer up, Alex." He said. "God, I feel like I'm talking to Alex Gaskarth."

"You've never spoken to him."

"One day, you'll see me work with him."

"Yeah, as his driver."

"Ey, don't crushed someone's dream."

"It's up to me."

"I bet you have big dreams too." He said with a smirk, I just laugh because when he's smirking he looks like a cute little bear trying to be a tiger. "And we are here."

I just laugh a little. He takes me to my family diner's. The diner's called Fields Trip. I know it sounds weird, say it to my grandparents.

"My sister said, the food here is dang good." We entered the diner's and all the employee smiles at me. Phil, one of the employee give me a high five as he walk past me to the kitchen.

We sit in the corner of the diner. As Calum reads the menu, I raise my hand to call one of the waiter. Sue make her way to my table.

"Who is this?" She mouthed me.

"A friend of mine." I mouthed her back. "So Calum, what do you want?"

"I want a beef chipotle burrito and a can of Coke." He answered as Sue writes down our order. After that she doesn't say anything else making Calum confused.

"She doesn't ask you what's your order, that's so cruel, I need to complain to the owner." He looks annoyed.

"No need, Cal." I said, trying to make him sit down.
