Reflection {Calum Hood}

Chapter 13

Emily and Tina left Ashton and Luke, and said their goodbyes as they got on the plane to go back home. We checked out of our hotel because we needed to get on the road and start traveling to the boys' next concert.

"I'm going to miss you vending machine." Michael said, as he hugged the vending machine near our hotel room.

"Michael calm down." I said "There's plenty of food on the bus."

"Ok." He said.

We got to our bus and loaded the stuff we used in our hotel into it, then we got on. Calum went straight to his bunk, like always, so me and the rest of the band had a meeting about his behavior.

"Ok Maddie. What are we going to do about Calum?" Ashton asked. "Oh, and I heard about the special nuts from Italy thing from Tina. That was just straight up weird."

"Yeah. Um... I don't know. I guess we should start with the small things first?" I suggested.

"Ok what's a small thing that Calum does that annoys the shit out of us?" Michael asked.

"Ok, first off." Luke started "He needs to stop calling Maddie a bitch when she works so hard for us, and she could just quit, but she doesn't. So we should help Calum to quit being rude to people, and calling them offensive things"

"That's a good start." I said. "I definitely agree with that one."

"Ok good." Michael nodded. "Then what?"

"I don't know!" Luke said. "Let's just focus on that, and once he's stopped calling her a bitch, we can see the other stuff he needs help on more clearly."

"Alright."

We had our plan.

"Um, do we get Calum from his bunk now or do we go to him?" I asked.

"We need to make him come over here. It's the least he could do for us." Ashton said.

"Calum!" I called.

"Ugh what is it Madeline?" He complained. "Oh hey guys." He said once he saw all of us staring at him.

We sat around on the couches and stuff in the bus, and tried to make a circle.

"Have a seat." I looked at Calum.

"Uh, hell no. The last thing that I need is an intervention." He stated. "I'm fine."

"Uh, your kind of not fine."Michael replied.

"Ok." Calum sat down. "What am I in trouble for this time?" He asked as he crossed his arms.

"Well your not so much in trouble as you are in need of help." Michael said.

"Whatever." said Calum.

"Ok Calum." Ashton stated. "You've changed immensely. You aren't yourself, and it's scaring all of us. You've been rude, angry, obnoxious, a diva, secluded, quite, sad, and disappearing. It's not good. Not to mention everyone knows about your bar fight and it's scared some of your fans away."

"Nah. My fans stick with me no matter what I choose to do." Calum said.

"Yeah that's true." Ashton replied, but you haven't been yourself lately. Your fans won't stick by you if your not you. You've become this completely different person. Frankly, I'm surprised you haven't changed your name yet."

"Well I was thinking of changing it to Bert..." He said.

"Bert?" I questioned. "Really?"

"I'm kidding geez calm down Madeline. It's called sarcasm. Look it up." Calum replied.
