confused look. "If by help you mean suck my dïck, then yea." I smirk, placing a hand on the locker as I lean into him. "You don't even know my name." "Well then what is it sweet cheeks?" "Kellin. You are?" "Calum. Hey, there's a frat party tonight. You should come." I suggest. Kellin shrugs and nods before scooting from under me as the bell rings.

I will always cherish our childhood memories the most of anything from when I was a kid. We agreed that we were refreshing in each others lives. In that moment I realized the breath of fresh air I always needed was right in front of me, and it was you. You were absolutely captivating.
