Chapter 52

                                    

                                          
Blue's pov 
                          
"If maybe one day, in the far away future, we had kids, what would you want to name them?" I ask Calum, resting my head on his chest. 
                          
He shrugs, "I don't know. Why are you asking?" 
                          
"I don't know," I lie, "just curious, I guess." 
                          
"Well what would you want to name them?" Calum asks me, looking me in the eye. I smile.
                          
"Probably something from the Flash. Like Barry and Iris or something like that," I answer.
                          
"Not Barry and Iris. The two of them have too much chemistry to be brother and sister names," he complains. 
                          
I roll my eyes, "Fine then. What's your suggestion?" 
                          
"It's not from the Flash, but I've always liked the name Annie," Calum tells me.
                          
"So Barry and Annie?" I question.
                          
"You seem pretty interested in this topic for just being curious. What's going on, Blue?" Cal asks, frowning. He sits up and looks at me, waiting for an answer. 
                          
I shake my head no, "Nothing's up. I was just curious. I like thinking about the future. I was always too scared to when I lived on the streets. I never knew if I was even going to live to see the next day." He pulls me into a hug, resting his chin on the top of my head. 
                          
"I'm sorry you had to go through that," he mumbles.
                          
"It's fine. It want your fault," I remind him. Calum doesn't respond. He just continues to hold onto me tightly.

"Are you going to come with mommy this time?" I whisper to Flash, picking him up. He licks my nose, causing me to laugh. 
                          
"You're going to miss the boys too, aren't you?" I whisper, my face falling. I had decided to leave the boys instead of facing Luke and Calum. They were rockstars anyways. They don't need a baby crawling around or keeping them up crying late at night. It's just better this way. 
                          
"Whatcha doing, Blue?" Luke asks, walking into my room. I look up from Flash and smile at him.
                          
"Nothing. Just playing with Flash," I answer, holding onto my dog.
                          
"Can I ask you something?" Luke continues, sitting on the bed beside me. I nod, trying to keep my nerves in check. Conversations that start with "Can I ask you something?" almost never go good.
                          
"Why did you Google baby names on my laptop?" He asks. I mentally punch myself in the face for being so stupid. I used Luke's laptop. Not mine. I had practically given myself away.
                          
"Um, you see, I'm actually writing a fanfiction and I needed a name for the main characters," I lie. I was actually impressed with myself for coming up with a semi-believable lie on the spot.
                          
"You write fanfiction?" He challenges, not completely believing me. I nod, trying to keep my lie going. I wasn't going to be able to come up with another excuse if he doesn't believe this one.
                          
Luke studies my face for a few moments more before shrugging and saying, "Cool." Then he leaves my bedroom, not saying another word on the matter. I let out the breath I didn't realize I had been holding in.
