Asylum ➸ c.h

Twenty Four >>

I’ve been hiding for ages and just as I was about to call out to him two fingers jabbed into either side of me causing me to turn around, Calum the stupid head with the huge smirk was behind me and put a both hands on my waist looking at me. “You look cute is my stuff” he said lifting a hand off my waist and playing with one of the strings that hung off the hood “yeah I think I look pretty cute too” I answered smiling.

“You’re a dork” he said leaning down returning his hand to my waist “I’m the dor-“ I started but Calum cut me off by kissing me… it wasn’t like the first one where it was sweet this one was passionate and made my heart beat faster than I thought it could.

He broke away from me and smiled down at me he went to go and kiss me again… well that’s what I thought he was doing but when I went to lean in he reached up and tugged the hood over my eyes. “Hey that’s not fair!” I shouted laughing whipping if off my heat letting the rain drops hit my face and hair. And once again we began to play tips with small little kissing sessions in between then when we ran out of breath we finally agreed it was a good time to go back to the apartment.

“It’s like 7:00 we don’t need go back straight away” he said trying to eagre me to stay out a little later, I shook my head and took his hand in mine walking to the apartment “I have work tomorrow and I need a shower” I said “plus I don’t want to get sick” I added as we turned the first bend in our journey home.

“How many jobs do you have?” he asked looking into one of the clothes shops we walked past “Two, one at the book shop and the other at the movie theatre” I answered. I hated the movie theatre sure it’s only a two hour a shift job but I don’t get a lot of pay and the people there suck. “That’s too many for a girl your age” he said laughing and poking my cheek, I rolled my eyes and giggled “I’m eighteen dude” I answered “Yeah and I’m twenty and don’t have a job and I think that’s too much” he stated then I remembered Calum’s birthday was in January… he is 20 years old now holy shit.

“Oh I didn’t get you anything for your birthday!” I exclaimed my hands flying up to my mouth, he chuckled and gave me a tight squeeze “You didn’t need to… plus I was in the Asylum so…” he explained turning the last bend our apartment in sight. I felt bad that he spent another birthday in the Asylum and I didn’t get him anything for his twentieth.

“So about that second job… I think you should quit” he stated opening the door to the apartment block, I walked past him and pressed the button for the elevator “You think so?” I asked smiling entering the elevator as the doors opened with a ‘Ding’. “Yeah then you can spend more time at home” he said pressing the button for our floor “you mean more time making out with you?” I asked crossing my arms and raising an eyebrow.

“Well I was going to go along the lines of ‘so you can relax and study for your English course’ but yeah making out more sounds good too” he teased reaching over and pinching my butt. “You’re such a boy” I said walking out of the elevator laughing “what can I say I’m a butt kinda guy” he smirked walking down the hall to the door of the apartment.

I shook my head and opened the door to see Ashton in his usual spot and Luke cooking in the kitchen. “We’re home!” Calum called from behind me pushing me in and closing the door from behind me, I didn’t say anything to anyone I just went upstairs and got changed into warm clothes and then joined everyone at the table for dinner.

“So how was the walk?” Ashton asked taking a spot next to me at the dinner table “good we talked everything out” I said serving myself some steak and Ashton one as well. He just did his usual nod and began eating.

We all ate in silence and Calum decided he wanted to play footsie under the table which turned into a kicking war that made the table shake “You guys cleaned up because I cooked” Luke stated whipping his mouth with a napkin and walking over to my side of the table helping Ashton out of his seat and into the lounge.

“I don’t want to clean” I whined standing up and grabbing plates and throwing them into the sink… Luke can clean these up I’m not bothered. Calum laughed and did the same as me then followed me into my room where we laid under the covers and began talking about the nonsense topics again.

“What if I got a potato gun? Could that be used as a bullet?” he asked playing with my hair, I rolled my eyes and changed the subject. “Okay my turn… what was a screaming that made you sleep next to me last night?” I asked “You were screaming my name mostly I don’t know it was muffled but you dragged me next to you so I stayed” he answered sighing. I nodded and turned over so I wasn’t facing him anymore and my back was pressed against his chest.

“Do you want to talk about Michael?” Calum asked moving his hand over my torso, I shook my head quickly and sighed. I miss Michael, I wish I could save him.. I wish had a time machine and I could just change everything make everything better.

“How did you know to leave the house when you did?” he asked yawning and snuggling into his pillow “some guy called my phone and told me to get out” I explained like it was so simple. “A guy?” he asked lifting his head off the pillow, I nodded and turned on my back so he could look at me properly “Yeah but I haven’t heard of him since so relax” I said running my fingertips over his arms. He nodded and placed a soft kiss to my head and lips then put his head back on the pillow.
