Mr. Defensive - {Calum}
You and Calum had been close buddies since birth. Both of your mothers had been in the same lamaze classes and they built a friendship while pregnant with the two of you.
Ever since then, you and Calum were unbreakable friends.
Today you were going out to the movies with your new boyfriend, for the first date. He was Calum's teammate on the soccer team at school, and the two of you met when you were waiting for Cal to get out of practice so you two could walk home. Calum had gotten a girlfriend too, and he thought it'd be cool if you all went to see a movie together.
You were never really into double dates, but since it was put out on the table, you decided to go with it.
After you got ready, you waited in your living room for Calum, his girlfriend, and your boyfriend to show up at the front door.
Your mom came over and sat down next to you on the couch.
"Are you ready?" She asked, smiling at you.
"Yeah... I'll finally get to know what it feels like to go on a date," you giggled a little.
Before she could reply, the doorbell rang, and you sprang up, bolting towards the door. You opened it to find Y/BF/N standing in the doorway, grinning at you.
"You look beautiful, Y/N," he said, looking at anywhere but your face.
You furrowed your eyebrows a bit. You just had skinny jeans on and a grey shirt, with your black jacket hanging on your arm. You didn't think your outfit was that spectacular.
"Thank you," you said, as he took your arm and led you out to his car, where Calum and his girlfriend had been waiting.
When you got in on the passenger side, Calum's girlfriend looked at you for a moment with a confused glance, and then waved at you, smiling just a little, and you waved back.
"You're the one Calum has told me so much about?" She asked, trying to hide that she was shocked at your skin color.
"I guess I am," you giggled.
Calum was sitting right behind you, and he cleared his throat.
"Hello to you too, Cal," you laughed, turning around and rolling your eyes.
The ride to the movie theater was interesting and the least bit awkward. You guys had been talking about different things, like the teachers that you hated at the school you all attended, and you and Y/BF/N talked about how you first met, which seemed to make Calum a little tense. You just shrugged it off figuring that it was something else on his mind.
"Ooh, Calum," his girlfriend gasped, "we should tell them how we met!"
Your smile faded and you felt goosebumps all over your body. You didn't know why you were acting like that all of a sudden, but you pretended to be interested in her story.
"I totally didn't get science," she started, flipping her brunette hair.
Who doesn't? You thought to yourself, rolling your eyes.
"And Calum was my tutor. By the end of the month, he had asked me to be his girlfriend. It was so sudden, but I'm glad it happened." She smiled at him, before pecking him on the cheek.
He half smiled and intertwined his fingers with hers. You felt an upset pit in your stomach as the two of them got all "lovey-dovey" with one another.
You pulled into the movie parking lot and parked. The four of you got out the car, and Y/BF/N wrapped his arm around you as you walked over to the ticket booth.
Calum and Y/BF/N bought the tickets, and you guys headed inside. The candy and popcorn stand was lit up right before your very eyes.
"Babe, we should go get some candy---"
"Y/N, our movie starts in five minutes. We have to hurry if we want to make it." Y/BF/N cut you off, grabbing you by your wrist and running you down the halls and into the movie theater, Calum and his date following close behind.
You all sat down in a nice spot, where both the row ahead of you and behind you were empty. You sat in between your boyfriend and Calum, and you could feel the tension between the four of you.
The movie came on after a few minutes, and you focused your eyes on the screen.
It's gonna be a rough night.
**************
The showing you guys decided to watch was becoming boring near the middle. You shuffled around in your seat, looking over at Calum and his girlfriend kissing away. You didn't like that every five minutes, she was leaning all over him, technically forcing him to kiss her.
Y/BF/N leant in and whispered in your ear.
"Y/N..." He whispered sexually, "you wanna help me with a little something?"
You looked up at him as his eyes pleaded for you in the most lustful way, and he bit his lip just staring at you. He grabbed your hand and placed it between his legs, letting you feel his rock hard package.
For a first date, you thought he had been taking things a little too far. You had never been on a date before, and this entire time, you imagined it to be nothing like this.
"No," you refused, tugging your hand away gently.
He only grabbed it back and put it right back where it was, forcing you to do things against your will.
"Damnit, Y/BF/N, I said no!" you yelled, getting up and exiting the theater.
"Fuck you!" He yelled after you, not even getting up from his seat.
Calum instantly shot up and ran after you, leaving his girlfriend to sit there and look dumb.
You ran into the lobby and sat down on a bench and began crying. This night had been a total bust, and your boyfriend of only two weeks was already showing his true colors. So much for a first date...
Calum sat down next to you, wrapping his arm around your slumped body and pulling you close. You gripped him between your arms and cried into his jacket.
"What happened, Y/NN?" He asked, his protective side showing in his voice.
"I don't want to talk about it... Can we just go back in and watch the movie?"
His brown eyes met with yours and his body language changed at the sight of your tear-stained cheeks and puffy eyes. He had never saw you cry, besides the time when you guys were kids and you skidded your knee when you fell off his bike, because he was trying to teach you how to ride one. His eyes filled with anger.
"What did he do?" He asked sternly, his voice low and his fist clenching as it rested on your thigh.
"Calum, let's just---"
He cupped your chin with his hands, making you look at him. Within a moment, you told him everything, and after, you looked away, feeling ashamed.
Without saying a single word, he stood up and stormed off into the movie you guys had been watching, only to stop in his tracks when he found his girlfriend making out with your boyfriend.
The both of you were infuriated.
Calum went over and pulled Y/BF/N up by his collar and he punched him right in his nose. He punched his own teammate in the nose.
Y/BF/N took a step back, looking at the blood on his fingers from his nose.
Suddenly, your boyfriend jerked towards Calum, punching him back. They fell onto the floor, hitting one another roughly nonstop. Y/BF/N held Calum in chokehold, and you ran over and yanked him off.
He stood over Calum, breathless, licking the blood from his busted lip.
"Let's go," he grumbled to you, grabbing your wrist.
You snatched your hand away and glared at him for a long time, and then you leant down and helped Calum up onto his feet. Calum's date watched from a distance, and after the fight was over, she pushed her way through the two of you and kissed Y/BF/N on his lips.
"Y/N," he called, before walking out the door, "You could've had everything with me."
He winked at you and left with Cal's now-ex-girlfriend under his arms and he shouted, "Good luck finding a ride home, you idiots!"
There was so much you wanted to do. You wanted to snatch the hair out of that pasty girls head, and you wanted to kick your now-ex-boyfriend right where the sun didn't shine; but you held it all in.
Calum watched you as you sighed and lowered your head.
"I'm sorry..." you said quietly. "You lost your girlfriend because of my worthless boyfriend, and now we have no ride home..."
"Y/N," Calum almost laughed. "I don't care about H/GF/N! The only reason I punched Y/BF/N is because he hurt you; he forced you to do things to him, and if you guys would've came here alone, he could've done worse. I know him, Y/N. That's why I asked H/GF/N to be my girlfriend. You were raving so much about your first date and how you couldn't wait, so I decided to get someone so that I could have an excuse to go with you. I'm sorry if any of this is making you uncomfortable. I just... I was so defensive over you and I didn't want tonight to be rememberable in the worst way for you,"
You stood there, stunned and in shock. The only reason Calum got a girlfriend so quickly, is so that he could watch you and make sure Y/BF/N didn't force you to do anything you didn't want to. He was such an overprotective freak, you should've known; you couldn't deny it made you happy though.
"I'd hear the way he'd talk about you in the locker room. He talked about you as if you were some prostitute. He'd laugh with his friends as they talked about the dirty things they'd do to you. It filled me up with so much anger, I just knew I had to find a reason to go on that date with you. I just knew it."
You twiddled your thumbs as you watched Calum try to speak up and say one last thing, but when he opened his mouth, nothing came out. He sealed his lips and muttered, "Let's go."
As you two walked out of the movie theater together, you stopped him.
"Calum," you whispered. He turned around and faced you, his eyes pleading for you to own up to him like he owned up to you. "I... I..."
You couldn't make out the words. You knew him for so long, but you'd never think about saying this to him. You took in a deep breath, and without thinking twice, your lips crashed against his and you pulled his lanky body close to yours. Your tongues danced with one another, as Calum's hands were firmly gripped around your waist. You didn't let go once you felt sparks shoot through your body. You held him tighter and the kiss seemed to go on for ages. His soft, plump, pink lips against your own felt like a pillow made of clouds. His large hands planted on your waist, his thumb massaging you gently. This is how it was supposed to be.
When you parted for air, you looked deep in his eyes and smiled.
"I love you," you finally managed to say.
"I love you more,"
And with that, you two caught a train back home, laughing and cuddling like nothing ever happened.
And you were proud to say you had a new nickname for him: Mr. Defensive.
