Caleb Finn//Calm Me Down

"Oh I'm sorry, I didn't realize that me hanging out with my friends was inconvenient for you!" I yelled at my boyfriend Jake.

"You always hang out with them!" He gestured to the other room where Aviva and Caleb were.

"I barely hang out with them! You always do this, you always try to dictate when and who I hang out with."

"Because I'm your boyfriend! Not him!"

"Oh so this is about Caleb!? Fucking figures." I rolled my eyes and shook my head.

"Of course this is about Caleb! You spend more time with him than you do with me."

"Let me get one thing straight, Jacob. Caleb will always be a bigger priority than you. Caleb doesn't try to control what I wear, what I do, who I hang out with. Caleb actually talks to me when we hang out. Caleb has been there for me through my entire life. Okay. So yes, I will always choose Caleb over you." I know I sounded like a complete bitch right now, but you guys don't know Jake.

Jake is the typical asshat frat boy who can't keep it in his pants despite being in a committed relationship.

"Whatever. You were only a piece if ass anyway. If you think you're getting away with this, I promise you, you aren't." He stormed out of my room and out of the house.

I am so pissed off right now. I started pacing back and forth trying not to have a panic attack or break anything.

I stumbled out of my room and over to Caleb's room. Him and aviva soon followed me.

"Woah, hey, what are you looking for?" Caleb asked me concerned.

"What the fuck do you think I'm looking for Caleb, weed."

He rushed over to his dresser and pulled out a joint that had already been rolled.

He handed me it, and the lighter and I took a long drag. I took a couple more before handing it to Caleb.

"What happened? Jake looked like he wanted to beat the shit out of Caleb." Aviva spoke for the first time.

"The same thing that happens every time. Except this time was the last time."

"You broke up with him?"

"Yeah. He tried telling me that I couldn't hang out with Caleb just because he's a guy. As if Caleb would even go for me."

Caleb sat down on his bed after handing the joint to aviva.

"I told you he was fucking crazy. I told you." Caleb looked like he was getting angry too.

"I told him that you would always be a higher priority than him in my life and he didn't like that. He called me a piece of ass and said I wasn't going to get away with this."

"You're not-" aviva started but I cut her off.

"I know I'm not."

It got silent for a moment. "I think this is a good place for me to go home. Goodnight guys."

"I'll walk you out." I stood up and walked her out of our house and sat on the porch waiting for her Uber.

"Caleb really means that much to you?" She asked.

"Caleb is my best friend. He's been there for me through everything. I knew nothing was ever going to be long term with these guys. Until I find someone who understands you and Caleb are top priority, it's never going to be long term."

"Y/n, I think you should talk to Caleb when you go back in."

"About what?"

"Just... talk." She shrugged. After her Uber pulled up I walked inside and went to Caleb's room.

He was in the middle of taking his shirt off.

"Aviva said I should talk to you. Is there something you want to say?"

"Nope."

"Are you sure? I'm giving you a free pass to say anything you want to me right now."

"I don't know what she's talking about."

"Okay." I sighed. "Is it okay if I sleep in here tonight?"

"Y/n, I'm not doing this. I'm not your rebound guy. Okay?"

"That's not..." I sighed. "Yeah." I closed his door behind me and went to my room, locking the door behind me. I silently cried myself to sleep while wearing caleb's shirt and cuddling my pillow.

Caleb always calms me down after a panic attack or a fight. Why was tonight different?

When I woke up, I went to the bathroom and then to the kitchen. I made myself a bowl of cereal and sat at the counter eating while scrolling through my TikTok.

A video edit of Caleb and I came up. It was mostly pictures and videos of us together messing around while a different audio of Caleb describing me played.

"I just, I love her." I bit my bottom lip and liked the edit and commented on it.

'This is the cutest.'

I turned my phone off as soon as i heard caleb's door open. I stood up and put my empty bowl in the sink.

"Good morning. How are you feeling?" He asked.

I feel like shit for not realizing until now how perfect you are for me.

"I'm fine. You?" My grip tightened nervously around my phone.

"I'm good. What do you wanna do today? I can invite aviva over-"

"Um, is it okay if me and you just stay in today?"

"Yeah. I'll just post some drafts."

I squeezed my phone in my hands tightly as my nerves grew.

"Actually I wanted to make a video real quick with you."

"Sure. Let me go out my stuff on."

"No," I gently grabbed his hand "how you look now is perfect."

I set my phone up and started playing Electric Love.

He looked happy for a second, then he looked like a he realized something.

"It's not the real audio." He smiled at me.

I waited silently as he was mocking the song. Once it got to the drop i pulled him close and kissed him quickly.

"You actually did it oh my god."

"Should I not have?" I asked scared I just ruined our friendship.

"Only if you actually feel that way."

"I-I do. Aviva connected the dots before I did."

"So last night you actually just wanted to sleep in my bed with me?"

I nodded. "You always calm me down when I get anxious or mad. Luckily I had your shirt though so that was enough." I wrapped my arms around myself.

"I'm sorry."

"It's okay. I understood where you were coming from."

I posted the TikTok and we went to his room to watch some movies.
