The New Kid

Ch.10

A/N: So..... I can't upload two chapters today. We are going to see my grandpa who is still sick in the hospital. Duluth has become a very familiar city :(. Okay, bye eggplants. There probably won't be an author's note at the end. Oh, I forgot to tell you something awesome! So, there will be I guess.

I ran after Calum. He had dissapeared. 

"What could you have possibly done now?!" Connor asked.

"Well, he kind of likes Luke and he saw us kiss." I said.

"Wait, so Luke's blueberry?" Connor asked.

"I'm a what?" Luke asked.

"Yes, and blueberry." Harry said.

"What the-" Luke started.

Michael interrupted him. "Uh, guys! We still have the missing puppy!"

"The what?" I asked.

"Calum!?" He said.

"Why-?" I cut Luke off this time.

"Luke! Concentrate for like two seconds please?!" I snapped. Harsh, but we need to find Calum because I didn't know what Cal would do alone.

"Okay." Luke walked away. Aw, shit. I just lost two important people.

"Guys, go after Luke. I think I have an idea where Calum is." I said.

"But-" Connor started. 

I cut him off. "Just go! Calum and I need to talk about this, alone."

"Someone needs to eat some chocolate on thier man period." Michael said.

"Not a good time, Michael." I said. I was the point to freaking out. Calum better not try anything. What if he already-? No, Ash, you can't think those thoughts.

"Okay, fine." Harry said.

They left to go off after Luke. I went to find Calum. He's been coming here since we were little. He has to know that I know exactly where he is. That gave me the littlest bit of hope. I would've wanted the other guys to come with me, but then it wouldn't have been me and his's special hiding spot. I ran into the woods by the lake. There was Calum sitting right where I thought he would be. I climbed the rope ladder up to him.

"Ohlo." I said.

"Sure." He said.

"Calum, I'm so sorry." I said.

"No, it's okay. I saw him kiss you. But, I know you like him back." He said.

"Cal,I can just be friends. I-" He cut me off.

"No! I mean, I'm fine with it, it just hurts a little bit."

"I know."

I didn't expect him to break down after that. I just hugged him tight while he explained to me.

"Why does everyone not like me? I'm so done trying this hard."

"You don't have to be someone you're not. I like you, Michael, Connor, and Harry like you. And Luke, well, he just doesn't like you in that way." I tried to calm him.

"But, depression sucks. You know that?" He said.

"I know." I just cradled him, trying to stop him from having a pottential panic attack. 

He looked up at me. "You know, I liked MIchael better anyways. I think I have it all fugured out now."

"Cal," I groaned, "You need to stop going for straight guys." I said.

"Who says he's straight?" He said.

"Cal, you can't-"

"As Mikey says, 'I do what I want, I"m punk rock.'"

"He's not punk, he has red hair!" I said.

A/N: Lol k, we're leaving right now, so see you tomorrow, maybe! Bye lovelies!
