Never Gonna Give You Up [Calum Hood Imagine]

Rating: PG

Includes: Fluff? Yeet not really, just a confession of love

Requested: Calum hood imagine where you’re hard to get but he won’t and hasn’t given up chasing you for years. So when he finally gets a girlfriend you realize you do love him and raise hell, only to find out that the boys told him to do it so you would confess then lots of fluff

A/N: this is SO long and this was requested weeks ago oops nobody probably wants this anymore. ps, i’m open to feedback! and REQUESTS

“Then just say yes!” Calum breathed out exasperatedly

“Calum,” I stated firmly. “I won’t go out with you, I just can’t.” At this point he was becoming quite the annoyance, but to be completely honest, I felt bad for the poor guy.

Including this, and the many, many suggestive conversations, calum has asked me out a total of 7 times within the past 2 years. He claims over and over again that it’ll be “the night to remember,” but I can’t bring myself to agree with him.

I’ve only ever saw Calum as my best friend, along with the all of other guys as well of course. Sure he was attractive, and obviously such a sensible person, but putting both of us into a position of being more than friends is something I never would have even thought about. I can’t do that to our friendship. Not only would it be weird if we ever broke up, but it’ll change our entire friend group. It wouldn’t be Calum and y/n anymore, but it’d be Calum and y/n, as one, as a couple- I just can’t do that.

“Why not? give me a reason.” Calum stubbornly remarked as he awaited for a response.

“Because-I’m just not into you Calum, why can’t you understand that?” I tried to spare his feelings…6 times, but the guy had to take a hint at some point.

“Do you honestly believe that someone else could treat you better than I, your best friend could? Can’t you see how much you mean to me?” With his arms flailing in the air as he spoke, you can see the true aggravation towards my stubbornness, but no way am I going to let him guilt me into going out with him, it’ll be completely one sided.

“I care about you too, so much Calum” I tried to touch his shoulder in comfort, but as I laid my hand upon his body you could see that the stern look on his face certainty did not faint.

“But i’m fine with us just being friends. If we were to go out I don’t think i’d be 100 percent happy being put in that situation. I also think that you wouldn’t want that, would you?” I looked deep into his eyes and waited to see if he had anything else to say, and alas, nothing.

His jaw tensed and it seemed to be his eyes started to darken, or was that just me?

“Fine,” he nearly barked out; completely shocking me with his sudden outburst. “I get it.” he mumbled one last time before storming to the opposite side of the room, making sure that he left me with his infamous grand exit, the slamming of the door.

It’s been two months since i’ve had that talk with Calum, and for the first time in two years, our conversations have not been filled with him inserting sly hints of him becoming my boyfriend. They have actually been surprisingly casual.

Calum and I, along with the rest of the guys were hanging around in the lounge-nothing in particular, just sitting and enjoying each other’s presence while being on our phones and keeping up with small talk.

The small sounds of wisps of air stacking together had become so familiar to my ears, I had to looked up and over to Calum once I heard the card shuffling come to a halt.

“Can you pass me my phone?” He turned his head towards me and then pointed his finger in the direction of his phone sitting merely less than two feet away from him.

I gave him a cold stare, nonetheless reaching over to grab his phone off off the coffee table directly in front of me.

Just as I made contact with the device a notification emerged, illuminating the entire screen. Although, it wasn’t the notification that caught my eye, it was his lockscreen.

who is she

My eyes instantly darted towards the picture of Calum wrapping his arm around the neck of a girl I had never seen before. She sported brown shaggy hair along with one of the shortest pair of shorts I had ever seen. They both were smiling, seemingly to have just gotten out of water, and were having one heck of a time. When was this? I don’t remember being invited to a pool party or a beach day.

“Who’s that?” I quipped up. Calum obviously was in a state of shock by my sudden question. You could tell by the noticeable bulge of his eyes while looking over to Michael almost in worry. What’s up with this girl?

Seconds later Calum adverted his attention back towards me, all while looking increasingly more nervous.

“She’s just a…friend.”

“I’ve never seen her before.” I touched the home button on his phone to show the photo to myself once again, just seeing her with calum like that made me uneasy. Wasn’t I supposed to be his best friend? Even so, I should have at least gotten an invite to the hangout.

Calum looked as if he was at a loss of words, lowly mumbling something before quickly closing his mouth again. He seemed to be in a state of shock, clearly not knowing what to do with the situation he got himself in.

Unexpectedly, Luke jumped in to save the tan boy from another explanation. “Just an old friend we caught up with,” He looked around at the other boys and they all nodded their heads simultaneously with agreement. “We knew her before we met you. It would’ve been weird with you there. You wouldn’t have understood any of our jokes.”

My mouth formed an ‘o’ in understanding as I handed Calum his phone back which he gratefully took into his possession.

“So when will I meet her?”

“Tomorrow actually!” Ashton interjected. For the second time today, Calum’s eyes widened almost to the point of them popping outside of his head.

“Y-Yeah, I mean you will have to start seeing a lot more of her.” Calum finished off with his head nodding, probably at the fact that he was actually able to speak for himself for once.

See a lot more of her?

“Oh, okay.” My eyebrows furrowed in slight confusion as I tried to take a grasp on these new plans to meet a girl that they’re all so close with, although she was never mentioned. “I’m excited to meet her.”

The boys and I were all settled into the living room of Calum’s apartment watching some lame, bad production movie. All of us except, well, Calum. He went out to go pick up their lady friend for her to join us during our movie marathon. I still think it’s ironic how she suddenly made an appearance in their lives. Come to think about it, if she was good enough of a friend to catch up with, I surely had to have heard about her before now, but I haven’t.

“So,” I broke the comfortable silence of our group and adjusted myself in my seat to look at all of the boys. “Who is this girl again?”

“She’s been a good friend of ours for years, even been to a few of our shows. We keep contact, I’m surprised you’ve never seen her before”

Seen her?! I’m one to remember faces quite easily and I have definitely never seen her before a day in my life.

I gave Michael a face of confusion as he continued on

“Especially Calum man, I wouldn’t be surprised if she’d soon become his-”

Michael’s words were cut off by the doorknob jiggling, and soon enough Calum stepped into the doorway with his hands intertwined with hers

“Hey guys!” Calum chirped up, “i’m back”

“I’m sure they can see that babe.” The girl laughed.

Her voice was captivating, slightly deeper than the common girl, but surely intriguing.

Wait a second, babe?

“Y/n, this is Destiny,”

By the mention of her own name, the girl by Calum’s side broke out into a toothy grin.

“Hi!” She chirped, keeping the smile plastered on her face. She seems so… superficial.

Ignoring the odd feeling in my stomach, I put out my arm to meet her outstretched hand, giving her a small closed smile.

“Y/n! I’ve heard so much about you from Calum!” She giggled once again and I can’t help but to be put off by the sound escaping her lips.

“Can’t say the same about you” I trailed off as I let out an awkward laugh to pass off the tension.

“Y/n.” Ashton commanded sternly as he sent a glare in my direction, telling me to be nice. I responded with my eyes widening as I turned my attention back to Calum and the girl who just appeared in my life.

“Actually,“ Calum trailed as he walked towards the kitchen, only to grab a water bottle from the fridge. “Guys-Destiny and I go out now.” His eyes swept across the room, in approval, but when he got nothing in return he then spoke again. “She’s my girlfriend.”

He spoke the words so nonchalantly, with great ease. “girlfriend.”

Hearing the words out of his mouth made me wish that I went deaf in that exact moment. Just hearing the words out of his mouth made me feel sick. I tried to breathe but I was only greeted by dry air. The dry, dry air. Besides my breath, the only thing I could hold onto was the nearby table and even then, I knew that I wouldn’t be fully stable. How could he? Just a few months ago I had Calum begging me to simply go on a date with him, and now that’s not the case to the slightest bit. I know that I told him to move on, time and time again, but I never actually imagined it happening. I guess I always just assumed that he’d be mine forever, of course, I was wrong.

“What?!”

Lord knows that the word leaving my mouth was not intentional, oh how it wasn’t. I wanted to be happy for him, I really did, but can you blame me? Calum, my Calum has officially moved on.

but he was never mine to begin with

I no longer needed to take up his time, that was all meant for her now. He moved on to someone who can love him, but haven’t I always?

Had I known how much it’d make my heart hurt by seeing Calum with someone else I wouldn’t have turned him down so many times. Heck, I didn’t even know how much he meant to me, until it wasn’t about me. It had always dawned upon me that I couldn’t always have Calum trailing after me for years, only to be rejected time after time, but to have him so easily move on from me to someone else made my heart wrench, I’ve been replaced.

“I know that you’re just meeting her for the first time Y/n, but I have known her for so long, she just makes me so happy” Destiny had a smile spread across her face as she leaned into Calum to attached her lips to his. Seeing Calum smile so greatly with his hands intertwined with her’s made me fully realize that I’ve actually lost my chance.

“Okay, love bugs. Remember that we’re all here to watch movies, so get your butts to the couch.” Michael patted Calum on the shoulder before heading back to the living room to resume the movie that we had already started.

Near the end of the film all of us started to slowly lose interest in what would soon happen to the little girl on the screen.

Michael was playing with the ends of his flattened hair, Ashton was scheduled to fall sleep any second now, and Luke’s attention was now on his phone that he held a little too close to his face.

Maybe it was the fact that I had seen this movie a million times before, otherwise my attention would have been completely on the screen in front of me. At this point, all I could do was stare at new couple to my right, so perfect and happy. It didn’t take me having a mirror to know that my eyes were full of yearning. Destiny giggled as Calum planted a chaste kiss upon her lips-her lips that quickly spread to an even wider smile. She snuggled even closer to his side as he draped is arm around her in comfort.

Shifting in my seat awkwardly I let out a long sigh, trying to focus back on the movie that was soon to end. As I licked lips in anticipation I heard another squeal leave the mouth of the girl that I wasn’t quite fond of.

“Calum stop!” And there it was, that damned giggle again.

My head snapped towards them in anger, frustrated at their obvious display of affection.

“Hey! Some of us are actually trying to watch the movie, so I suggest you to stop.”

My statement seemed incredibly invalid seeing as nobody was actually watching the movie, besides me. Even then, the constant smooching and squealing from ol’ girl over there made it extremely hard for me to do.

I didn’t mean to sound so bitter but I have most definitely had enough of their frisky rendez-vous.

My words seemed to have little to no effect on the couple none the less, seeing that I found them full on making out not even seconds after my objection.

I tried to ignore them the best I could but when I heard a breathy moan leave her lips, that was my final straw.

“Okay! Seeing as you guys won’t find a room, how about I go find one myself?” I shot up out of my seat and collected my jacket as I stormed off towards Calum’s room.

“Oh and for your information, not everyone, wants to see you have dry sex on the couch.” I exclaimed as I continued my march towards calum’s room letting the door slam behind me.

I sighed deeply while dragging my hands down my face. I have no idea how I will be able to do this. To just sit around and pretend that i’m happy for his relationship when it’s actually the complete opposite. Who knew that it would only take him getting a girlfriend for me to realize my true feelings for Calum. I wanted to leave. I wanted to yell. I wanted to be the farthest way possible away from her. But I knew that I couldn’t avoid it, what was I supposed to do? End my friendship with Calum? That would be selfish, but at this point it sounded completely tempting.

I figured that I could just leave and push these problems away to later face them but I then realized that Ashton picked me up and I had no other way of getting home.

Why did I have to be so stupid? Why did I fail to realize my true feelings for my best friend and the boy that I love just to be told that it was just too late.

Nothing could fix the way that I feel right now. I was defeated, stuck. It always seemed to be that my stupid feelings got in the middle of everything that I did.

Slumping my body on top of the sheets of Calum’s bed I turned on my side, curling into myself just as a tear silently escaped from my eye. If anything, these tears were born out of frustration. Frustration at myself.

“Y/n?” There was a knock on the door, quickly being followed by someone entering the room.

“Just leave me alone.”

“Y/n what’s got you upset?” Could you believe that he was asking this question? This truly just proves that he had no insight of the outside world while he was making out with his new girlfriend.

Deciding to ignore his question I only turned towards him, he was sitting sitting on the corner of his bed closest to me.

“Where’s your girlfriend?” The words left my mouth with so much hatred and I had no regrets.

“The boys left to go take her home.” He sighed out, raking his hands through his disheveled hair, falling limp on his head.

“Is that what this is all about?” His eyes softened with his words and I hate how easily I fall into submission with a quick glance in their direction. He traced the line of my fallen tear and ended at my hairline, playing with the stray hairs there. I wanted to close my eyes in contentment, feeling at ease by his simple touch, but instead I fought the urge and continued to keep my stern look fixated on him.

“You know I will always love you.” He hummed

Just not the way that i love you. Not anymore.

I hated myself for being such a wimp, I needed to confront him, not fall victim to his calming words. At my own thoughts I Jerked away from his touch and stood up on my feet, traveling to the complete opposite side of the room.

“No Calum. This isn’t me just being afraid that I will be replaced because I already have.” His posture soon straightened and you can tell that my words easily intrigued his mind.

“I’m not the one you will spend your time on, I’m not your ultimate goal, and I’m not someone you wish to be in a relationship with. Not anymore.” I was on a rant, pacing around the room, completely releasing everything that I was feeling and thinking.

“Y/n-” He spoke, pushing himself off of the bed, to meet me in my frantic state but I quickly cut him off.

“No, I just can’t believe how incredibly stupid I was to not realize how amazing you are and how i’m madly in love with you. I see you with her and I finally realize that I’ve lost my chance, my chance to make you happy. You smile at her with such joy, so much joy that that it shows the crinkles by your eyes when you smile and I wish it was me being the one to make you so happy, but i’m not. You’ve tried for years and it’s so selfish of me to think that you would wait for me forever when this entire time you could have loved someone else. But now i’m in love with you and you’ve already move on. And I’m just too late for everything. You moved on so quickly and I hate it, hate that you no longer want me.“

Finally allowing myself to take a breath I actually realize how much I let out of my mouth.

The room was silent as Calum took a slow approach towards my body.

“Y/n,” Except this time I let him continue. He outstretched his hands and took mine into his own and then looked back up with me with such longing eyes.

“Y/n” He repeated, except this time there was a small smile tugging at his lips. “I know.” He chuckled but that only left more room for my confusion.

“I know.” He stated once again and this time he was full on smiling at me, while I continued on in my state of confusion. Was he mocking me?

“I love you so, so, much Y/n. I love you, Including how aggravated you get, and how your nose scrunches up when you are confused. I love you so much and I can’t actually believe that you would think that I would have given up on you so easily.” He smiled at me with great endearment, it was relieving. To hear him say that he still loved me, and now he knows that I loved him back.

“But what about your girlfriend?” My head cocked to the side at his confession. But my words didn’t put him into another storm of thought, but a fit of laughter. What was so funny?

He continued on laughing and although I knew of nothing that he was laughing at, I couldn’t help but to laugh along myself.

Once he composed himself, he was able to speak out once again, “there is no girlfriend.”

My eyes squinted and my eyebrows furrowed in once again, confusion. “What do you mean there’s no girlfriend?”

“You turned me down so many times, the last one just really hit me hard. I was actually in so much pain by your rejection even though I told myself that you would one day say yes. In the very back of my mind I actually considered to stop trying. When I told the guys about it, they made up the idea of getting a pretend girlfriend just so you could realize how much you actually love me. I’d never thought it work, but you’ll be surprised by the outcomes of the boys’ crazy plans.”

At Calum’s confession, everything started to now come into place. That’s why i’ve never seen this girl before, they probably just bribed someone they knew to be part of their plan. And the questionable stares at each other-it all made sense.

“So Destiny-”

“Is just some girl we met once at the studio.”

“And the picture?”

“Was all staged.”

“You know I could’ve done without the whole make out session.” I huffed out in annoyance but a small smile still played on my lips.

“Well I had to pull it off Babe, how else would you have believed it.” He laughed and it felt so good knowing that I was the one making him do so. “ Y/n, now do you see how much you mean to me? You mean so much to me that I would go 2 years of rejection and a crazy plan just to get you in my arms.”

I smiled at him as he brought me into a hug and then placed a delegate kiss onto my lips.

“You should know that I’m never gonna give you up.”
