autumn leaves ↦ c.h.

[BOOK ONE iN THE SEASON SERIES]

"you know, autumn was her favourite season." calum said kicking the leaves with his feet.

"really?" luke said copying calum's actions.

"yeah," he smiled to himself remember the things she said she loved about it, "she loved how the leaves changed colours and her favourite piece of clothing was sweaters and she could only wear sweaters in autumn. she looked so adorable and cute with them on. sometimes when there were a lot of leaves she would grab a rake and make a big pile of leaves and jump in it." he laughed about the last part he said. he always thought she was really silly and childish. luke laughed along with him.

then there was a silence. not an awkward silence just a really comfortable one. calum could feel himself about to cry. he usually never cried, but he hated it. he felt that as if he cried then people would appear him as weak and he didn't like that. juliet always said that it made him look like he had feelings, but he didn't listen to her.

"i miss her so fucking much, man." calum said his voice cracking. next thing he knows he is crying and luke's arms are wrapped around him.

"i know, mate," luke said patting his back, "i know."
