"What do you mean?"  I handed Calum a plate with pizza and sat down with mine. "You know exactly what I mean, what happened when you went to get the restraining order?"  I told Calum what I told Luke. 

"I'm sorry I wasn't there for you before, and I'm sorry for...treating you like shit and pushing you away and just everything.  I wish I could take it all back and fix-"  Calum's voice broke.  I felt so bad Calum felt like this, so I pulled him in for a tight embrace.

"Calum we're okay now, alright? I promise we're okay now."  At this point I was crying into Calum's shirt as we held each other.  Calum hugged me tighter.

Calum was too upset to eat his pizza, so was I to be honest.  "I should probably get going..." Calum got up and was trying to leave so he could avoid his feelings. "Calum stay," I couldn't risk Calum walking out, especially now. We needed each other. "Please?"

Calum sat back down and bit into his pizza. We both ate our pizza in silence, it was awkward, there was tension, but it wasn't a rough bad nasty tension. It was an awkward type of tension. I finished my pizza and turned to face Calum.

"Cal..." he looked up at me with his big brown eyes. "You okay?"  He nodded and mouthed "Yeah" with very little sound.  I scooted next to Calum and rested my head on his shoulder. Calum wrapped his arm around me and held me tight.
