SAY YOU LOVE ME
Pairings : f!reader x Calum hood Warnings : I haven't mentioned age gap anywhere so there's only pure fluff
Y/n had some friends over at her house for a small gathering, party kind of a thing. Calum's friends had also come over to her house.
The pair had been dating for 4 months and thought to introduce each other's friends to them at a nice party. They liked each other so much it was amlost unreal. They hadn't met each other's parents because they weren't dating for that long.
There was light music in the background of her house. Her couch was occupied, kitchen had the booze and food was on its way. He room was upstairs so no one went there but the house wasn't so crowded because there were around 12 people there. Y/n was standing in her living room and acting host asking if everyone was having a nice time when they told her to relax and they all liked each other enough to talk. She started talking to Luke and Sierra when one of her friends joined in a chatter.
"I don't know when was the last time I saw her this glowing. I mean there is a definitely a glow on her face. She looks happy with Calum."
Turning to her friend she said, "Y/n, I approve."
All four of them laughed lightly when Luke chimed in and said, "Yes I agree with you y/f/n. I mean Cal is the guy in the band who is the anti love dude but this lady right here has him in some spell." He said while raising his drink in his hand, giving a soft smirk. "Cal is happy Y/n", said Sierra. They all started talking about their work and how that made her happy too.
She noticed a soft touch on her arm and looked back to find brown eyes.
"Hey Cal, where were you?
"Oh well, mum had called so I was just talking to her"
He joined in the circle of friends and started talking when the bell rang to her house. She walked to the front door to see what interrupted the party. She saw a food delivery guy at the door and thanked him because she was getting a little impatient because the food took so much time arriving. She took the food, paid the person and walked towards the kitchen annoucing the food was there. The kitchen was getting flooded slowly when Calum came in and snatched the stack of plates from her.
"No no. Leave it. They'll take food on their own love"
"Cal, they're my guests. What a host would I be if I'm not atleast putting down the cutlery on the table?" she gave him a knowing look.
He moved a little away from her. Luke was standing at the kitchen table when he said, "Yeah Yeah y/n it's okay. We'll be fine".
She looked at the two of them and laughed and told them to shut up and muttered what Calum heard you're both idiots. He started helping her and Luke aimed at the food which made the three laugh.
She bended a little over at the table and her hair followed. Calum pushed her bangs behind her ears and felt so deep in love. He was sure he was going to say it.
He thought he was alone when he said, "I love you y/n."
Luke's food was halfway in her mouth. Y/n stopped in her tracks and looked at him. "What?"
Poor Calum got so flustered at her simple question that he felt his entire world crumble at his feet and saw himself going back to the statement of love being a scam.
"Huh? What?" he looked at her all puzzled like a small boy who attended his first day at school.
"No wait. Go back. What did you say?"
"What did I say?"
"Calum"
"Y/n..?"
"Wait. For real? You love me?"
"Uh. What when did I say that? No. I mean what? No wait Y/n"
She lost all her patience with him when he said that. She was so shocked to hear him but it was such a cute moment. It didn't matter if Luke was present. To them, it was so intimate a moment.
"So you don't love me?" she felt a part of her being torn away as if a child's first attempt of colouring goes awry.
"No I do. I do love love. What am I saying? ugh" He ran his hand and massaged lightly onto his face. He turned towards her, when he saw Luke who was by the way, still in shock.
"Dude, what?" He asked him when he left the couple alone.
"I love you Y/n. I'm soi am in love in love with you sorry. I got flustered and I didn't know how would you react. But i know that. I love you."
He confessed.
"Oh Cal" she cupped his face lightly and he leaned in her touch. "I love you too. But i gotta say, you almost gave me a heart attack when you said no." She tapped his arm and he chuckled.
"Well, i'm glad we're finally on the same page baby. I love you lady."
They couldn't stop making heart eyes at each other the entire night. They went to bed wine drunk, half naked and all loved up. He stayed the night and dreamt of staying there for a longer time.
But wait, one step at a time.
