Well it looks like the chapter is going up sooner than I thought. Hope you guys like it 
Chapter 16
Scott's POV
"Turn on the TV! Turn on the TV!" Nikki exclaimed throwing open my bedroom door. It was a good thing me and Calvin were laying under the covers or it could have been awkward. "Put the E! channel on!"
I did as she asked. When I turned on the channel, it was a segment of E! News. A picture of Nikki flashed on the screen as the anchor started her report. "Yesterday super model Nikki Ashmore was spotted having lunch with a mystery man. The pair was seen laughing and getting cozy over the table. So just who is this mystery guy? And is this one of Nikki's flings or could this guy be the guy to make our favorite supermodel party girl settle down?"
"Calv we made E! News!!" Nikki screamed
"I can see that." Calvin replied chuckling.
"I just am curious on how you guys ended up on there." I said.
"Well yesterday when Nikki and I went shopping we stopped for a bite to eat. While we were eating, these photographers started popping up around us to get a shot of your sister so we decided to have some fun with them." Calvin replied.
"You know if we really wanted to mess with the press we could all go to lunch together and when I leave you two could have a little make out session."
"I don't know Nik, that would make us look the bad guys and you would be a 'victim'" I replied, air quoting the word victim.
"Relax Scotty, I was just kidding. I won't try to fake steal your man." Nikki stated.
All of a sudden Cal's phone started ringing. He got out of bed and went out into the hallway to answer it. I still couldn't believe that Calvin and Nikki's lunch date was all over the television. This was exactly the reason I wanted to leave this area. Sure if I had stayed here anything I wanted would be handed to me but in St. Louis I can be my own man and get what I deserve. Also so things like innocent lunch dates don't get misconstrued as anything more. After a little while Calvin came back into the room.
"Well all of my friends now know about our day in New York" he replied chuckling. "They had a lot of questions about how I went on a weekend trip with my boyfriend to Connecticut and end up in New York City with a supermodel. I told them I would just have to tell them about when I get back."
"Speaking of getting back, we better get ready and pack so we can make it home in good time." I stated. Nikki left the room so Calvin and I could shower and get packed up. We were already to go at about 10:30 AM. We said goodbye to everyone and hit the road.
"I had so much fun this weekend! Thanks for taking me to meet your family." Calvin said.
"I'm glad you had fun" I replied smiling over at him "I think that everyone really liked you, especially Nikki."
"Yeah Nikki is a blast!"
"So I was thinking of taking you to this cute little diner in the city but with all this publicity you got yesterday, do you think it will be a good idea?" I asked. I hoped he wanted to go because this was my favorite place to go when I was home and I wanted to share it with him.
"I think that sounds perfect. I don't think we have to worry about being bombarded with cameras since you aren't out around here much and besides they haven't identified me in the photo."
We got to the diner and sat down at a booth. A waitress came over and took our order. "So what do you think of the place?" I asked
"It looks like we stepped back in to the '50s" he replied. The waitress came back with our drinks. The television abouve the counter was playing the E! channel and Nikki's photo popped on the screen. It was muted so we couldn't hear what was being said. "Could you turn up the tv, please?" Calvin asked. The waitress turned it up.
"This morning we reported of Nikki Ashmore's lunch with a mystery man. Well this afternoon that man is no longer a mystery. E! News has confirmed that that man is Calvin Williams. Calvin is a twenty year old central Illinois native." the reporter said "How did this midwestern guy end up with the supermodel? A source close to Williams says that he is dating Nikki's brother Scott who has been MIA from the New York scene since moving ot St. Louis."
"So much for the press not knowing who you are." I said after a long silence. Calvin just sat looking off at nothing in particular.
"I think Cameron is the source they were talking about" Calvin said when he finally spoke. Our lunch came and we ate in silence. I could tell that Cal just wanted to get home. When we were finished, we paid and left. As soon as Calvin and I opened the door flashes were going off. Paparazzi. I linked arms with Calvin and pushed our way through the crowd and into my car. The cameras just kept asking about a love triangle and if Nikki knew about us.
We lost a majority of the paparazzi in New York and we were now on the interstate heading towards home. The ride was pretty silent. Calvin looked like he was going over everything that happened this weekend, the good and the bad. I reached over, grabbed his hand and squeezed it because that was all I could do. It was late when I dropped Calvin off at his building.
"I had a great time this weekend." he said with a weak smile.
"I love you Calvin, no matter what, just remember that." I replied pulling him into a hug. Then I watched him walk inside and I head home myself.

Well Calvin's 15 minutes of fame as mystery man didn't end too well. Cameron must have something to do with it and hopefully it will blow up in his face. The excitement was short lived but was fun while it lasted. Thanks, accord, for the update.
Hope you have a great Thanksgiving.

Chapter 17
Calvin's POV
I woke up well rested on Monday morning. The weekend had been a lot of fun! I enjoyed meeting Scott's parents and seeing where he grew up and I absolutely loved Nikki. I wish all the stuff with the paparazzi didn't happen but now that I'm no longer in New York, that shouldn't be a problem. When I got back last night I went straight to my room so I wasn't able to talk about this to anyone and my roommate, Bobby, was already asleep when I got home.
On Monday's I don't have class until 4 but I meet Jamie, Robin and Audrey for lunch at noon. I hop in the shower and get ready for the day. By the time I'm already to go it is 11:45. I hate walking on campus by myself so I grab my ipod and put my headphones in. As I head down the stairs, I heard two girls talking and I thought they mentioned something about all the cameras. They can't be talking about this weekend, I think to myself, so I forget about it. As soon as I walk out the sliding doors I was met with thousands of flashes. There was a mob of cameras and they were all screaming my name.
"Calvin! Calvin how do you feel about coming between siblings?" one shouted
"Are Scott and Nikki fighting over you Calvin!?" asked another
I was stunned. I thought I left all of this in New York. All I could do was just stand there with my mouth open a little until I felt a hand on my shoulder. I looked up to see this guy I had seen around campus a few times, I might even have a class with him, standing next to me. He then led me through the crowd of cameras, flashes going off with every step.
"Come on guys, back off! Give him some room!" the guy was shouting as we fought our way through. The cameras stopped following us when we crossed the street. It was so nice to finally breathe again. It was the first time I could really look at this guy. He's about 5'10, enough muscle to see it under his shirt but not so much that he looks squeezed in, blonde hair and green eyes. The guy dropped his arm from around me and we continued walking towards the cafeteria.
"Thank you for helping me out back there" I said
"It was no problem." he replied with a smile
"I'm Calv-"
"-vin Williams" he interrupted "I know who you are. E! was all about your story the past couple of days. Plus we have geography together. I'm Eric Grant."
"I thought you looked familiar." I replied. We walked the majority of the way in silence which was okay with me. Every once in a while I could feel his eyes on me and when I would look over at him, his eyes quickly diverted away. Was he checking me out? I started to get those butterflies in my stomach you get when you realize a cute guy likes you. Wait! I shouldn't be feeling that though. I have Scott. And Scott is great, probably the best thing thats ever happened to me. I was relieved when we got there and I immediately saw Jamie and Audrey.
"Well I see my friends so I guess I'll see you in class. Thanks again for earlier." I said
"It was no problem. I'll see you around." Eric replied with a smile. I made my way over to Jamie and Audrey.
"Who was that?" Jamie asked.
"His name is Eric. He's in my geography class and he helped me out of a situation earlier."
"A situation? Did it have to do with this weekend?" Audrey asked.
"First you have to tell us all about your weekend!" Jamie said before I could tell about the mob of cameras.
"Well he lives in this huge house because his dad is some big CEO. His mom was really nice. His dad is still warming up to the idea of having a gay son. Scott's brother Blaine looks just like him but a tad older and he seems nice although I really didnt get a chance to talk to him. we had an awkward first meeting."
"How so?" Jamie interrupted. She's not one much for suspense.
"Well Scott and I were in Scott's room, he just told me something really personal. We started kissing and fell onto the bed and that's when Blaine walked in, Scott laying right on top of me."
"That sounds so awkward!" Audrey exclaimed. "So how was his sister?"
"Nikki is awesome! She took me shopping in New York and we got lunch."
"Yeah the whole world knows about that." Jamie said with a laugh.
"About that. She saw the paparazzi and we decided to have some fun. I never imagined it would have turned out like this. By the way, did you guys give out my identity?" I asked
"I wasn't us." Jamie and Audrey said
"I think it was Cam. Anyway well they found us yesterday too when me and Scott were doing lunch. They chased right out of New York. This brings me to this morning. When I walked out of my building this morning, there was a mob of photographers! They were asking me questions about breaking apart siblings and stuff like that. I was in shock that they were there that I could only stand there. Eric came up and pushed me through the cameras and told them to leave me alone."
"Well that was nice of him." Jamie said.
"I think he was in it for something else than being nice." Audrey stated.
"What do you mean?" I asked
"Please you saw the same smile I saw before you came over here. I think this Eric thinks you are cute." she replied
"Well I guess that since I'm with Scott I don't really think of that stuff anymore." I said. So Audrey saw that smile too. It was good to know I wasn't just imagining it. If I was single, I would be all over Eric. He is super cute and had a smile to die for. But I'm with Scott. I'm with Scott. I'm with Scott.

Oh, oh! Is this where the little red guy on his shoulder starts causing problems????? Hopefully the little white guy on the other shoulder will have more influence. It's fun having the the POV's from each. There are always different perspectives. Can't wait for Chapter 18. Thanks, accord.

Chapter 18
Eric's POV
I've always had a crush on Calvin. Ever since the very first day of class. I remember the first time I ever laid eyes on him. It was like a scene out of one of those cheesy teen movies. You know the one, the attractive person walks in, slow motion, glances around the room and gives off a smile. Meanwhile everyone else can't help but stare at them. That's how I saw Calvin's entrance that day. I looked up right as he walked in the door, and it looked like he moved in slow motion as he went to find an empty desk. He smiled and waved at someone he knew, although I inferred that it was just an acquaintance since they didn't sit next to each other. From that moment on I realized that I had to at least try to friend this guy and hopefully it would lead to more.
One day I came to class and he was already there so I chose a seat next to him. This was the day the professor asked us to sit in the same seat every class so he could start remembering our names easier. We had a few interactions. We would ask each other questions about a note we may have missed during the lecture. We never made it to the whole introducing thing. I once saw his background on his phone was him and another guy who looked more than just a friend. This is when I started to recoil my attempts at making him mine. I watch E! News religiously and saw Cal's face pop up on Sunday. It took me by surprise at first but then the guy on his phone background had a picture with him on E! and I knew that was his boyfriend.
I tried my hardest to realize that Calvin was off the market and I need to get over this crush. That is until I walked out my building and saw him frozen in front of a thousand (okay that's an exaggeration) cameras. I knew I had to help him out. I quickly led him across the street. When our eyes met, all the wants and needs of making this cute guy mine came flooding back. I introduced myself and told him that he needed no introduction. Hopefully this could be the start of something new.

Okay so don't read into this as creepy. I tried to make it sound like when you get a crush on somebody but it kinda sounds a little stalkerish. Thats definitely not where I was trying to take this character. Just wanted to clear that up! Hope you guys enjoy the chapter

I think it is a normal reaction to try to get to know someone you find attractive. Although with Calvin having a boyfriend, Eric should back off a bit. He still can be friends, however, it does sound as though he will attempt a coup...... Poor Calvin, first Cameron and now Eric. Scott better come to the rescue. Thanks for the new chapter, accord.

There always has to be a first approach in any relationship or merely a desire for one. That does not really count as stalking. Let's hope that Eric's attempts at befriending Calvin are duly rewarded!
Interesting update!

Chapter 19
Calvin's POV
"Alright class, I've decided to give you guys a group project. I will split you into pairs and then assign you a country that you will then do a presentation for in the class." my geography professor announced at the top of the class. Great, I thought, I hate group projects. Everyone always flakes out on me so that I'm stuck doing all of the work. Ijust hope that I get somebody willing to pull their full share.
"The groups are as followed: Tiffany Mason and Jeff Sears, Whitney Mills and Jessica Jones, Amber Thompson and Avery Pullman, Calvin Williams and Eric Grant..." I didn't pay attention to the rest. I was both happy and nervous that I got Eric as my partner. From what I talked to Eric he seemed like a good guy so I figured he'd pull his own weight but I was nervous because of what I felt the other day when he saved me from the cameras. He looked over and smiled so I smiled back.
I decided that I should text Scott, I hadn't talked to him since he dropped me off last night.
-Group projects...yay
-Have fun with that lol how was your morning?
-About that...I'll call you after class
-Oh that bad huh? Ok I'll talk to you then
I look back up and the teacher just finished giving out the countries, Eric was leaning across the aisle to talk to me about the project. "Sorry I wasn't paying attention, what country did we get?" I asked
"France" he replied. I was happy it was an easy one "shouldn't be too hard"
"No I don't think so either." I replied. We exchanged contact information and agreed to meet at his place later tonight to get started. The professor then dismissed the class. Looks Scott wouldn't have to wait long for that phone call. I called him as I walked back to my building.
"Hey babe" he answered "Wasn't expecting your call for awhile."
"Yeah we got out early after our groups were assigned."
"So about this morning of yours..."
"Well I was met with about a dozen photographers and their cameras when I walked outside today." I said
"Oh my gosh Cal! I'm so sorry about that." he replied, sounding sincere and concerned
"Yeah they took me by surprise at first, good thing I looked good this morning."
"You always look good" he replied with a little laugh
"You're my boyfriend so you have to say that." I reply chuckling, he is so cheesy sometimes.
"I might have to say it but not mean it and, babe, I really mean it."
"Anyways" I transition with a laugh "I was standing there with a deer in the headlights look and couldn't move. This guy from my building came up and led me through the cameras."
"Did you know this guy?" he asked, the laughter from before was gone from his voice.
"I'd seen him around. Funny story, he's actually in the class I just got out of and he was assigned as my group partner."
"Cool. So do you think he's attractive?" Scott said, revealing a hint of jealousy.
"He's alright. You're much better looking." I reply.
"Ok" is all Scott said back
"Scott Ashmore, are you jealous?" I asked with a slight chuckle
"No I'm not jealous. Just...concerned about what this guy's intentions are with you."
"You have nothing to worry about Scott, you know that right?" I asked, trying to reassure him.
"Yeah...I know" he replied
"Well I have to go. I love you."
"Love you too" he replied and then we hung up the phone.
I hadn't lied to Scott because he really doesn't have anything to worry about. Sure, I thought Eric was attractive and I might even have a little crush on him. But guys in relationships can still get crushes and it's not cheating. Everybody gets crushes. As that one song says "Its just a little crush".
I went to Eric's place at 7:30 that night. He lives in a small one bedroom apartment. We started off just doing random small talk before we dove into the project.
"So France" he said
"Oui" I reply, Eric chuckled
"Parlez-vous Francais?" he asked with a huge smile. The way he spoke french just added to his attractiveness
"No" I laughed "I just know some words and phrases."
"Ah that sucks, I thought we could give our presentation in French." he replied
The rest of the night we just talked about things to put in our presentation. We laughed and it seems Eric always had this cute little smile on his face. We started to wrap things up and I wanted to hit the bathroom before I left.
"Do you mind if I use your bathroom?" I asked
"Not at all. It's the door straight down the hallway." he replied. As I was walking down the hall, I could feel his eyes on me. Great, I thought, he was checking me out. I need to mention something about Scott so its clear there is a boyfriend.
"You know I was just thinking" I replied coming back to the table "Scott has been to Paris, he probably has some great pictures we can use for the slideshow."
"Oh...yeah that would be cool." Eric replied, his smile faded. After a little while we called it a night and I headed home. Crushes didn't last forever and maybe this one would just work its course and be gone. Maybe it only formed because he saved me in a time of need. Who knows why crushes form. As long as this one ran its course. I really hope that Eric and I could be friends.
********************************************************
Eric's POV
I was ecstatic that me and Calvin were assigned to be group partners. This is the chance I wanted to get close with him. We decided to meet up later that night at my place. I had to hurry up and clean my apartment since it looked like a pig sty.
At around 7:30 Calvin came over. At first we just shot the breeze but then we started talking about the project. I feel like the whole night I had this stupid grin on my face. I couldn't help it. Calvin is really good looking and so funny that he just made me smile the whole night. For a while I almost forgot that Calvin was in a relationship. However, at the end of the night I was quickly reminded. Coming back from the bathroom mentioned that his boyfriend, I think his name was Scott, could give us cool pictures from Paris. I could feel my smile slide right off my face. Hopefully this little crush would eventually go away because if Calvin couldn't be mine, I would still like to be friends with him. Calvin left shortly after that and I called it a night.
Calvin's POV
"Alright class, I've decided to give you guys a group project. I will split you into pairs and then assign you a country that you will then do a presentation for in the class." my geography professor announced at the top of the class. Great, I thought, I hate group projects. Everyone always flakes out on me so that I'm stuck doing all of the work. Ijust hope that I get somebody willing to pull their full share.
"The groups are as followed: Tiffany Mason and Jeff Sears, Whitney Mills and Jessica Jones, Amber Thompson and Avery Pullman, Calvin Williams and Eric Grant..." I didn't pay attention to the rest. I was both happy and nervous that I got Eric as my partner. From what I talked to Eric he seemed like a good guy so I figured he'd pull his own weight but I was nervous because of what I felt the other day when he saved me from the cameras. He looked over and smiled so I smiled back.
I decided that I should text Scott, I hadn't talked to him since he dropped me off last night.
-Group projects...yay
-Have fun with that lol how was your morning?
-About that...I'll call you after class
-Oh that bad huh? Ok I'll talk to you then
I look back up and the teacher just finished giving out the countries, Eric was leaning across the aisle to talk to me about the project. "Sorry I wasn't paying attention, what country did we get?" I asked
"France" he replied. I was happy it was an easy one "shouldn't be too hard"
"No I don't think so either." I replied. We exchanged contact information and agreed to meet at his place later tonight to get started. The professor then dismissed the class. Looks Scott wouldn't have to wait long for that phone call. I called him as I walked back to my building.
"Hey babe" he answered "Wasn't expecting your call for awhile."
"Yeah we got out early after our groups were assigned."
"So about this morning of yours..."
"Well I was met with about a dozen photographers and their cameras when I walked outside today." I said
"Oh my gosh Cal! I'm so sorry about that." he replied, sounding sincere and concerned
"Yeah they took me by surprise at first, good thing I looked good this morning."
"You always look good" he replied with a little laugh
"You're my boyfriend so you have to say that." I reply chuckling, he is so cheesy sometimes.
"I might have to say it but not mean it and, babe, I really mean it."
"Anyways" I transition with a laugh "I was standing there with a deer in the headlights look and couldn't move. This guy from my building came up and led me through the cameras."
"Did you know this guy?" he asked, the laughter from before was gone from his voice.
"I'd seen him around. Funny story, he's actually in the class I just got out of and he was assigned as my group partner."
"Cool. So do you think he's attractive?" Scott said, revealing a hint of jealousy.
"He's alright. You're much better looking." I reply.
"Ok" is all Scott said back
"Scott Ashmore, are you jealous?" I asked with a slight chuckle
"No I'm not jealous. Just...concerned about what this guy's intentions are with you."
"You have nothing to worry about Scott, you know that right?" I asked, trying to reassure him.
"Yeah...I know" he replied
"Well I have to go. I love you."
"Love you too" he replied and then we hung up the phone.
I hadn't lied to Scott because he really doesn't have anything to worry about. Sure, I thought Eric was attractive and I might even have a little crush on him. But guys in relationships can still get crushes and it's not cheating. Everybody gets crushes. As that one song says "Its just a little crush".
I went to Eric's place at 7:30 that night. He lives in a small one bedroom apartment. We started off just doing random small talk before we dove into the project.
"So France" he said
"Oui" I reply, Eric chuckled
"Parlez-vous Francais?" he asked with a huge smile. The way he spoke french just added to his attractiveness
"No" I laughed "I just know some words and phrases."
"Ah that sucks, I thought we could give our presentation in French." he replied
The rest of the night we just talked about things to put in our presentation. We laughed and it seems Eric always had this cute little smile on his face. We started to wrap things up and I wanted to hit the bathroom before I left.
"Do you mind if I use your bathroom?" I asked
"Not at all. It's the door straight down the hallway." he replied. As I was walking down the hall, I could feel his eyes on me. Great, I thought, he was checking me out. I need to mention something about Scott so its clear there is a boyfriend.
"You know I was just thinking" I replied coming back to the table "Scott has been to Paris, he probably has some great pictures we can use for the slideshow."

Seems like Eric and Calvin are on the same page, which will keep things easier just so long as neither of them gets swept up in the moment and does something they'll later regret.
Friends they ought to be - but sounds like both of them may need to keep reminding themselves that it's just friends.

I think Calvin had better include Scott and his pictures the next time he and Eric meet. Hopefully by meeting Scott and observing his and Calvin's intense relationship he will overcome this "small" crush. Once he shows Calvin all he wants is friendship the better. I'm not so sure, when in a secure relationship, crush is the correct word. Obviously no one stops admiring attractive people, but to develop a "crush" does seem closer to be teetering on the possibility of losing ones partner's trust. I want that little white guy on Calvin's shoulder to start explaining how disastrous this crushy feeling can be...... Great update, accord.

Hey guys this chapter is kinda short but I think its an important one. This will probably be the last update before Christmas. I hope you all have a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!!
Chapter 20
Scott's POV
The three month anniversary of Calvin accepting to be my boyfriend was fast approaching. I wanted to do this big surprise romantic thing for him but still wasn't sure exactly what to do. I'm pretty sure I would show off my cooking skills and make him a fabulous meal. The only problem is that I couldn't decide on what to make. I went to the grocery store to see if maybe I could find the answer there.
While I was driving to the store was when Calvin called me. He told me all about how the photographers were waiting like vultures to get a picture of him. I felt so bad that he was having to go through this. Even though Cal kept reassuring me that it wasn't my fault, I couldn't help but feel guilty about all of this. I was the reason that he was going through this horrible ordeal. Then he told me about this guy who helped him get through. Cal asked if I was jealous of this guy. I said no but I wasn't too sure. I wasn't there at a time when Cal could have needed me the most, but this guy was. This guy was there to fight off the cameras and lead Calvin out of the chaos. I needed to talk to somebody about all of this so I decided to call up Nikki.
"Hey Scotty, hows it going?" she answered
"Hey Nik. I'm alright I guess. I just needed someone to talk to."
"Oh ok. So what's on your mind?"
"It's Calvin. Yesterday they identified him while we were having lunch at that diner that I love. When we were leaving the paparazzi were waiting for us. I tried to lose them in the city but some followed us out of town, although they didn't stay with us the whole time. I just got off the phone with Calvin and he said that they were waiting outside his building today. I feel so bad that this is happening to him. It's all my fault." I vented.
"Scott I'm sure Cal is the first to say that in no way this is your fault. If this is anybody's fault it's mine! It sounds like you need to sit down and have an actual conversation with him. Was there anything else?"
"Well Calvin said that this morning he was so startled that he just stood there. He said this guy helped him get through the crowd. This guy is also in one of Cal's classes and now they are working on a group project together. I'm just not sure what to think of this guy." I replied
"It sounds like your jealous Scott. If Cal has said there is nothing going with this guy, I'd take his word. You two are so great for each other. Don't ruin it over something that you could be making up in your head. Like I said, just sit down and talk with him before you go and make some rash decision."
"You're right Nikki. Thanks for letting me vent this whole thing out to you. I love you." I said
"Love you too. Bye" and then we hung up.
By this time I made it to the store so I went on in. I browsesed the meat aisle, the fruits and vegetable asile trying to come up with some idea of a meal to cook. I decided on some grilled chicken breasts. I didn't know how I would cook them or what they would be served with so I headed up to the register with just the chicken.
There was only one cash register open and there were two girls in front of me. They appeared to be either late teens or early twenties. They must have come together because they were talking. At first I wasn't paying much attention until I heard something about me.
"Did you hear about that Calvin Williams?" the first girl asked
"Yeah I watched something that E! had on him this weekend." the second girl replied. "I would not want to be him. I think that Nikki and her brother should just cut their losses and leave him alone."
"Yeah I couldn't imagine being a normal person and then BAM cameras following you everywhere. That poor guy must be going through something awful. Plus I think he might be with another guy!"
"Really?!" the second girl exclaimed
"Yeah I was watching TV before we left and they showed him talking with a guy and they both looked pretty into each other."
"Wow he sounds like a slut. Maybe he only did this Ashmore thing to get their money."
"Or he could be a fame whore and actually be loving all of this attention." the first girl said. Their groceries were sacked and they walked out the door.
I couldn't believe what I just heard. Was this how the whole country was seeing Cal? A slut who is only after us for the fame and our family money. I wonder if this 'other guy' is the guy that Calvin told me about. I'm sure the press took a picture of them out of context and is now blowing it out of preportion. I couldn't stand to think that Cal was getting a horrible reputation out of what started off as him and Nikki just messing around. I knew what I had to do. This time it would be me who was there to protect Cal.

Good for Scott. Hopefully this will be before Calvin has to fight off Eric. Isn't it strange how rumors fly and how fast they get out of proportion. But, I guess we all are guilty of spreading something around at some point. All it takes is repeating and, of course, embellishing what we had just heard. Unfortunately it can be devastating for some. Great update, accord.
Happy holidays to you as well, accord.

Okay I got into a creative mood and this chapter just flowed out of me. It looks like Santa came early for you guys! Hope you enjoy!
Chapter 21
Calvin's POV
Tuesday had been slow and uneventful so far. I went to class and tried to not fall asleep during the lecture. I was headed to the cafeteria when I recieved a text from Eric.
-Hey work on group project at 7 at my place?
-Yeah that sounds good
-I'll even cook something to eat while we work
-Won't say no to that lol
A nice friendly dinner while we worked. It sounded pretty harmless to me.
I met Skylar and her roommate Kenzie at the food court. We each grabbed some food and sat a table. The conversation was very typical for us: complaining about teachers/homework, talking about people we say in the cafeteria, gossiping about people that we sort of knew. Skylar went to the gym before lunch and was telling us about this frat boy who she was pretty sure was flirting with her. I hadn't told any of my friends about my whatever thing I felt towards Eric. I figured that it was something they didn't to know about. Besides what I was feeling had passed and I only looked at Eric as a friend.
"-and then he 'accidentally' was right there as I turned from the water fountain! Can you believe that?" Skylar asked. I must have been lost in thought because She snapped her fingers at me "Earth Cal! I said can you believe that?"
"Oh yeah. Sounds like he was hitting on you alright." I replied having only caught pieces of her reasoning. Just then my phone started ringing and Scott's number flashed across the screen. He usually waited until he got off work to call me during the week.
"Hey" I answered
"Hey babe" he said. I wouldn't describe his tone as sad but he definitely didn't sound like his chipper self.
"Are you ok?" I asked
"Yeah I'm fine. What are you up to?"
"Having lunch with a couple friends. Whats up with you? You usually don't call me during the day." I said
"Yeah I know. I was on my lunch break and decided to call you. I think..." his words trailed off and his voice got quiet.
"Scott, are you sure you're ok?" I asked, a little concerned.
"Yeah. What are you doing around 5 tonight?"
"Nothing. Why?"
"I want to come over to your place. I feel like I...we...I need to see you." Scott answered
"Yeah ok. That sounds good to me. You're lunch break must be coming to an end so I'll let you go. See you tonight!"
"See you tonight." he replied and we hung up.
"Trouble in paradise?" Kenzie asked
"I'm not sure whats going on. Scott sounded weird." I replied "He's coming over later. He said he needs to see me." Skylar and Kenzie look at each other and then back to me.
"Oh honey." Skylar said "I need to see you is an equivalent to we need to talk."
"He's probably just having a rough day at work. We haven't seen each other since Sunday night and he probably just wants to hang out." I replied optimistically
We finished up lunch and headed our separate ways. Skylar and Kenzie headed to class and I made my way back to my apartment. I tried doing somethings to keep my mind off what might happen tonight. Nothing really worked tho. What if Skylar was right? What if Scott was coming over to break up with me? I don't know how I would react to that. Scott is one of the best things to happen to me. I love him so much. I try to shut these thoughts out but they keep coming to the forefront of my mind.
**************************************************
Scott's POV
Well I did it. I called Calvin to tell him I was coming over. That was the hardest phone call I've ever had to make. Cal knew something was up, he's intuitve that way. I couldn't believe what I was getting ready to do tonight. I lied about being on my lunch break, well I was at lunch but called off work today. Shelby took me out to lunch to get me out of my apartment.
"So?" she asked when I hung up the phone
"I'm going over at 5 to talk to him." I replied "He knows something is going on. He kept asking me if I'm okay"
"You really didn't hide the tone of your voice well." she said with a chuckle, trying to cheer me up. "Listen Scott, I don't really understand your reasons for doing this and I'm sure Cal won't either but I'll stand by you no matter what."
"Thanks Shelb. I'm going to need it."
After lunch I went back to my place. I did somethings around the house until it was time for me to leave. The clock seemed to move so much faster today than any other day. Finally it was time. I could no longer prolong the inevitable.
**************************************************
Calvin's POV
I was sitting at the kitchen counter when there was a knock at my door. Scott. I guess all of my questions would be answered. I went to the door and looked in the peephole to make it was Scott. It was. He looked so cute standing out in the hall. I almost didn't want to open the door. That way nothing would change, everything would stay the same. Another knock on the door prompted me to open it.
"Hey" I said opening the door.
"Hey you." Scott replied with a faded smile. Then he gave me a hug. It was a long embrace and Scott had his head on top of my shoulder. I breathed in and could smell his cologne. God, he smelled amazing! Finally Scott stood straight up, grabbed my hand and led me to the couch. "Lets sit down"
We do. I sit in the corner of the back and the arm rest with Scott sitting sideways. We're still holding hands. For a little bit we just look into each others eyes. Mine begin to tear up. Maybe its just me or something I want to see but I think Scott's are too.
"Cal, we need to talk." he finally says. I don't know how to respond so I stay quiet. "I love you so much. You're one of the best things that has ever happened to me and you know that I would do anything for you. So this is why I'm doing this. I have to protect you."
"Protect me from what Scott?" I ask. My hands fall out of his and onto the couch. My eyes tear up a little more.
"From what everyone is saying about you. From all the cameras haunting your every move. It was because of me all of this stuff has happened to you. I want to protect you from all of those nasty rumors people who don't even know you are spreading."
"I don't need your protection. I just need you Scott! Who cares what all of those people are saying?" My sadness was turning to anger
"I care Calvin! You didn't hear what I heard. These girls at the market called you gold digging slut! It took all that I had to not lose it right there in the checkout aisle. I don't want to see you hurt so I have to do this. I'm breaking up with you." He finally said it. The one phrase I was dreading through this whole conversation.
"You don't want to see me hurt?!" I yell, standing up from the couch "You don't want to see me hurt but yet you're breaking up with me!"
"Now everyone will leave you alone and you can go back to your normal life." Scott said. He was standing now too.
"I don't give a damn what everyone else says or think! I love you Scott! I told you that I needed you. I need you still, like I've never have anyone else before!" I exclaimed. Tears started to flow down my face. "I can't believe you're ending this." I say quietly, almost to my self. Scott walks over to me.
"I still love you. I'm doing this out of love. This hurts me as much as it does you" he says placing his hands on my upper arms. "But this is for the best." We stand there for a second. Scott is looking in my eyes but I'm just looking down. I could see the tear streaks on his cheeks.
"Get out." I say quiet and defeated. He made up his mind that this was going to happen no matter what I said or did. Scott just looked at me, almost like he didn't hear me. I could feel him pulling me into a hug.
"Get out Scott!" I yell, pushing him off of me. Scott steps back with a slightly shocked expression on his face. He looks at me for a little bit. Hurt was all over his face. Scott made his way to the door, looked back at me one more time and was out the door. I crumbled onto the couch soaking it with my tears.

"Hey you." Scott replied with a faded smile. Then he gave me a hug. It was a long embrace and Scott had his head on top of my shoulder. I breathed in and could smell his cologne. God, he smelled amazing! Finally Scott stood straight up, grabbed my hand and led me to the couch. "Lets sit down"
We do. I sit in the corner of the back and the arm rest with Scott sitting sideways. We're still holding hands. For a little bit we just look into each others eyes. Mine begin to tear up. Maybe its just me or something I want to see but I think Scott's are too.
"Cal, we need to talk." he finally says. I don't know how to respond so I stay quiet. "I love you so much. You're one of the best things that has ever happened to me and you know that I would do anything for you. So this is why I'm doing this. I have to protect you."
"Protect me from what Scott?" I ask. My hands fall out of his and onto the couch. My eyes tear up a little more.
"From what everyone is saying about you. From all the cameras haunting your every move. It was because of me all of this stuff has happened to you. I want to protect you from all of those nasty rumors people who don't even know you are spreading."
"I don't need your protection. I just need you Scott! Who cares what all of those people are saying?" My sadness was turning to anger
"I care Calvin! You didn't hear what I heard. These girls at the market called you gold digging slut! It took all that I had to not lose it right there in the checkout aisle. I don't want to see you hurt so I have to do this. I'm breaking up with you." He finally said it. The one phrase I was dreading through this whole conversation.
"You don't want to see me hurt?!" I yell, standing up from the couch "You don't want to see me hurt but yet you're breaking up with me!"
"Now everyone will leave you alone and you can go back to your normal life." Scott said. He was standing now too.
"I don't give a damn what everyone else says or think! I love you Scott! I told you that I needed you. I need you still, like I've never have anyone else before!" I exclaimed. Tears started to flow down my face. "I can't believe you're ending this." I say quietly, almost to my self. Scott walks over to me.
"I still love you. I'm doing this out of love. This hurts me as much as it does you" he says placing his hands on my upper arms. "But this is for the best." We stand there for a second. Scott is looking in my eyes but I'm just looking down. I could see the tear streaks on his cheeks.
"Get out." I say quiet and defeated. He made up his mind that this was going to happen no matter what I said or did. Scott just looked at me, almost like he didn't hear me. I could feel him pulling me into a hug.
"Get out Scott!" I yell, pushing him off of me. Scott steps back with a slightly shocked expression on his face. He looks at me for a little bit. Hurt was all over his face. Scott made his way to the door, looked back at me one more time and was out the door. I crumbled onto the couch soaking it with my tears.

Oh, I can't believe someone as intelligent as Scott could logically think he is protecting Calvin like this. But then again, love has it's weird ways of manifesting. This isn't good and I hope Calvin is smart enough to realize the mistake and be the one to rectify it. I fear Eric will take this as an opportunity to make his move. We need some superhero to come to the rescue....... And all this just at Christmas time.......lol I hope you get some nice things for Christmas, accord, because I am going to sulk the entire day.......j/k Thanks for the fast update, enjoy your holiday.

Chapter 22
Calvin's POV
I don't know how long I laid on that couch. I wasn't crying anymore, I had run out of tears. I feel like my body had gone numb. Everything that had just happened with Scott was still sinking in. It almost felt like all of that was just a bad dream and that I'd wake up with a text from Scott. But I knew that wouldn't happen. To make sure, I checked my phone. Nope no new messages. The time said it was 6:45. Shit! i'm supposed to be at Eric's in fifteen minutes. I jumped up from the couch and headed to the bathroom. My face was red and pretty obvious I had been crying. I washed it to get rid of the streaks from the tears. I fixed my hair, put on shoes and socks and ran out the door.
I pulled up to Eric's place. I sat in the car to do some breathing exercises to calm myself down. One last check in the rear view mirror to make sure I looked decent and then I made my up to the front door. I didn't even knock on the door, as soon as I got up to it Eric opened it. He must have heard me pull up.
"Hey!" Eric said opening the door, he had a big smile on his face. I could smell something delicious cooking but wasn't quite sure what it was. "Dinner is almost fixed." he said as I walked in.
"It smells delicious! What are you making?" I followed him back to the kitchen and sat at the table as Eric went to the stove.
"I have pork chops and twice baked potatoes. Hope you enjoy it. It's pretty much ready." Eric handed me silverware and placed some for himself at the table. "Can I get you a soda or something to drink?"
"A soda is fine. Do you have Pepsi?" I asked
"Of course!"
Eric set the food and our drinks on the table. We began to eat. Everything was so delicious! Eric was an amazing cook.
"I thought we would work on the project after we ate." he said
"Sounds like a good idea."
"Oh do you think your boyfriend will be able to get us his pictures of Paris?" Eric asked. I could feel everything bit of happiness leave my body.
"Um no I don't think I'll be able to get those. He broke up with me." I reply
"Oh my God! I am so sorry! If I had known I would have never brought it up. I feel like an ass."
"No it's fine." I said, I could feel my eyes begin to tear up again "You couldn't have known. I barely know about it. He did it a few hours ago."
"I'm so sorry" Eric replies, putting his hand on top of mine for comfort. "Do you mind if I ask how come?"
"I don't really understand the reasoning of his logic. He said it was to protect me from the bad press I've been getting." I could feel the tears begin to flow "He heard some girls calling me a gold digging slut and he feels like if we aren't together, no one will be interested in my every move."
Eric didn't say anything. He just scooted over to me and hugged me. I really needed that hug. I buried my head into his shoulder, I could feel my tears soaking his shirt.
"Sorry about your shirt." I said with a chuckle.
"Don't worry about it." he replied with a smile. Our faces being barely two inches apart. I couldn't tell you who initiated it but before I knew it me and Eric were kissing.
The kiss started off nice and gentle and then turned passionate. I need this, I thought. Its the only way to dull the pain and allow me to temporarily forget everything that has happened today. Pretty soon we are standing so we can get closer to each other. Eric's hands are placed on my hips, pulling me into to him. My arms find their way around his neck. We begin to stumble down the hallway trying to walk to the bedroom with out breaking the kiss. Eric pushes me into the wall and runs his fingers up my shirt and onto my chest. His thumbs trace a line on my stomach, tickling me, causing me to let out a little laugh. Eric then picks me up, my legs wrap around his waist, and he carries me into the bed room.
We fall onto the bed without changing positions. The only time our kiss is broken is when we are removing our shirts. I get a glance at Eric's body before we continue kissing. He isn't as muscular as Scott but he isn't a couch potato either. Eric's lips travel from my mouth down my neck to my chest. He spends a little bit of time on each nipple, lightly biting them and flicking them with his tongue. I let out a moan of pleasure. He looks up and smiles at me, a mischievous smile. Eric's lips go from my chest down my stomach until he reaches my jeans. He quickly removes my jeans and underwear to reveal my hard-on.
Eric begins to jerk my cock as he kisses down my thighs. Then he slowly puts the tip in his mouth. Eric's head starts bobbing up and down on my cock. All I can do is let out groans. My cock felt so good in his mouth. Eric then turns his attention to my balls as he starts to lick and suck on them ever so slightly. "Oh God that feels good" I manage to say. Eric then goes back to sucking my cock. Then he lays back on top of me.
He flips us over so that I'm on top of him. I do the same thing to him that he did. I go down his chest and spend some time on his nipples before removing his jeans and underwear. His 6" cock slaps against his body. I start to down on him. Eric starts to moan and thrust his hips pushing his cock deeper down my throat. "Yeah Cal suck that dick" he moans. I go down on him a few more times before I go back up to his lips.
We begin kissing again. I feel his hands grabbing at my ass. Soon I feel a finger circling my asshole. I feel Eric slowly begin finger fucking me as we make out. After awhile Eric adds a second finger. I'm breathing harder now, letting out tiny moans. Eric removes his fingers and flips us over so that I'm on my back. He stands up and opens the drawer on his night stand. He grabs a condom and a bottle of lube. After sliding on the condom, Eric lubes up his dick and then puts some on his middle finger. He begins finger fucking me again.
"Are you ready for this?" he asks
"I'm ready" I reply
Eric slides me closer to the end of the bed. I lift my legs in the air. He slowly inserts his cock into my asshole. I let out a moan. Eric puts my legs on his shoulders as he slowly pushes his penis deeper inside of me. Soon he is all the way in. "Are you okay?" he asks. I nod my head to reassure him. Eric starts humping me, his dick going in and out of my ass. He picks up the pace. Soon he is pounding my ass hard. His balls are slapping against me. We both are letting out moans of pleasure. I begin to jerk my own cock. Our moans get louder and louder as we both get closer to climax.
"I think I'm going to cum!" Eric shouts, pulling out and removing the condom. He starts jerking off over me.
"Me too!" We are both furiously pumping our dicks. We both let out huge moans as our cum mixes on my body. Eric goes and gets me a towel and then collapses next to me on the bed. We stay like that for a while.
My mind is racing afterwards. We lay on the bed for awhile. I don't know if Eric fell asleep or not. Only thought is crossing my mind. I hate myself. Thats all Im thinking. It wasn't even a whole day, hell not even 6 hours, since Scott dumped me and I went out and had sex with another guy. If Eric wasn't laying next to me I could have started crying. I decide that it would be best if I leave. I get out of the bed and start looking for my clothes.
"Going somewhere?" Eric asks sitting up.
"I'm sorry, I think I have to go." I say pulling on my underwear and jeans.
"Is something wrong?"
"No. I just need to be myself right now." I reply pulling my shirt down. I finished getting dressed, tell Eric goodbye and head out to my car.
Did I just make a huge mistake? My life is in shambles, I think to myself as I drive back to my building.
