"Calum!" I screeched.

"Hey Sarah. Today was my last day of school, so I thought I'd stop by," he smiled, "can I come in-"

"Let's go out here," I told him, walked out of the academy, onto the front lawn.

"Just give me a minute.." I held up my finger. I went back inside and wrote a note.

"Calum came here, but I took him outside immediately and now we're taking a walk. Be back soon. -Sarah:)" the note read. I left the academy once again.

"How about we take a walk?" I began to exit the gates with Calum following closely behind me.

"So.. What did you want to talk about?" I asked him, walking around.

"I just wanted to see you.." He smiled.

"Oh," I looked down, blushing, "well I'm glad you came."

"But why did you not want me to go into the academy?"

"It's usually really messy, and Delia (A/N: Cordelia) says we need an hours notice before we have company over.."

"Okay. But don't you have a butler?"

"Yeah, we do.. He does the completely necessary stuff and is pretty good at keeping the place clean, but Delia is really picky about having guests over."

"Oh. But who's Delia?"

"Her name is Cordelia, but we call her Delia. She's the head of the academy."

"Okay," he nodded as we kept walking.

"So.. Tell me a little bit about yourself," I smiled at him.

"Okay. My family and I recently moved here from Australia, just about a month and a half ago."

"No.. Really? I thought you had gotten an Australian accent from living in Boston!" I exclaimed sarcastically.

"Ha ha ha," he fake laughed, "but I have an older sister Mali. My mum's name is Joy, and my dad's name is David."

"I don't live with my mom anymore, but her name is Jessica. My dad's name is Chad. I have three brothers and a sister. Oldest to youngest is Brody, Theo, Vanessa, me, Brandon."

"Nice. Sounds like a pretty cool family. I'll have to meet them sometime," he smirked.

"You will."

"Good," he smiled. He slowly grabbed my hand with his. I looked down at our hands and grabbed his, letting him know it was okay. He looked at me and smiled, and I did so back.

"I'm sorry about, uh, at the club.. when I wanted to have sex with you," he paused, "I usually don't do things like that. It was just that I had been drinking. I'm sorry if I came onto you too fast."

"No, it's fine. Don't worry about it. I'm not mad," I assured him.

"Okay. Thank you," he kept looking down at our hands. I could tell he was very nervous.

"Calum," I used my other hand to pull his chin up so he was looking at me, "there's no need to be nervous. I like you too.."

"Oh.. o-okay," he smiled, but was still pretty nervous.

"Hey, Hood, you're fine," I smiled back at him, then kissed him.

"I'm really sorry that I'm so nervous, it's just that I really like you and I don't think you feel the same and-" I cut him off.

"I do, Calum. Trust me," I nodded.

"Then will you be my girlfriend?" He looked into my eyes, never looking out of them until after I answered.

"Yes," I smiled. He kissed my cheek.

"I'm going to call Delia to tell her you'll be coming back to the academy," I told him, smiling, "you can come over and meet Nan, Madison, and Queenie. Also Delia and Fiona."

He nodded as I called Delia to tell her Calum and I would be back in about an hour, so she'd have an hour to make sure nothing would make Calum suspicious. She would also have time to make sure the girls knew he was coming over. She sounded nervous. I guess they didn't have many boys over, or any for that matter.

"We can go back in about an hour, so she has time to clean up," I laughed.

"Okay. How about in the mean time, we go for pizza?" He suggested. I nodded uncontrollably, agreeing one hundred percent with him.

"Yeah, let's go," he grabbed my hand and we began walking even more in a different direction, towards the nearest good pizza shop.
