Let the sunshine in (Calum Hood Fluff)

Summary: Calum helps his wildflower feel better after a bad grade. (Request) (Words: 1.6k)

(3rd Person's POV) Calum absolutely hates silence in his house. He used to be ok with it when living alone, but since his girlfriend moved in with him, he became a fond lover of noise in the room. (Y/N) could light up the room, give life to everything, a superpower to his opinion. But it has been up to a week now since the house has sunken in silence, deafening silence. Along with her mood, everyone else's seems to have become blue, heavy, which makes no sense to him. Even Duke seems to mirror (Y/N)'s behavior, the usually energetic puppy now looking around in sadness all day.

More than the silence, Calum hates that he doesn't know what causes her to be so sad. His lovely wildflower is wilting and he has no idea why. He has tried to make her feel better, but as many times as he tried, that many times he has failed epically. His first guess was that fans have given her crap about whatever, so he went into a deep Twitter searching, looking up her name, hashtags about her, anything really, all possible combinations. He did the same on Instagram, snooping around fan pages, tags, tagged photos, but no luck on finding anything. Like everyone else in his life, his fans seem to adore his girlfriend, which is no surprise to him. Everyone loves (Y/N), and most of all, him. Then he called Crystal, Sierra, KayKay, (Y/B/F/N), almost all of (Y/N)'s friends, in hopes they would know something he didn't. But again, no one knew anything about (Y/N)'s sudden burnout, so he felt helpless.

(Y/N) has made herself one with the bed. She has been staring at the ceiling for as long as she can remember. She can't remember the last time she showered, only that she forced herself to get into the shower cabin. Her days have been a blur for the past week. It's not that she doesn't want to get up and go back to normal, but her body seems to defy her mind. It's cozy on this bed, she is safe from failure and disappointment there, why would she want to move?

"(Y/N), baby..." Calum calls from the door of their bedroom, but she just waves at him, no response. Calum walks in slowly as if moving faster would scare her away like a hurt kitten. "Hey, honey." He greets her, sitting on the edge of their bed. He leaves the bouquet on the bedside table, before leaning down to press a kiss on her forehead. He knows flowers always cheer his wildflower up. "It is pretty dark in here. How about we let the sunshine in? There is a lovely day outside." He says softly, stroking her hair. "I don't want to." She mumbles sadly, making him sigh a little frustrated. "Baby... What is going on?" He asks, looking at her as softly as she could. "Nothing. I am fine." She replies, but that doesn't convince her boyfriend much. "(Y/N), you are not fine. What is bothering that pretty mind of yours?" He asks her again, only causing her to turn her back to him. "I'll put these in some water." He sighs defeated, getting up from the bed. He doesn't want to push her, they never had the type of relationship where they needed to push each other to open up.

She feels horrible for shutting him down, but she is scared that if he knew, he would lose all his admiration. The thing Calum always brags about his girlfriend is how smart she is, how her brain is the prettiest thing on her. So, she couldn't risk letting him down, especially after she let herself down. She passed each and every one of her classes at once, with great grades too. And now that she is a breath shy from her degree, she fucked up a whole assignment, in one of the toughest courses of her final semester. And she fucked up a lot, only scoring a dooming 33% on the whole assignment. The only way she will be able to graduate with her degree in the upcoming finals month is by getting a nearly unachievable 90% on the finals. It is futile even trying, she knows she can't do that, so she just... gives up.

Calum decides that enough is enough; he is going to do everything to get his girlfriend out of the darkness. He scrolls through his phone, finding the song he is going to blast through the house for her. I've got sunshine on a cloudy day The music blasts through his speaker, and he burst through the door, going straight for the curtains. He opens them in a swift move, letting the rays of sun glaze the room.

When it's cold outside, I've got the month of May (Y/N) is looking at Calum confused, trying to decipher what is going on. Calum picks the flowers out of the bouquet, throwing them around the room. He reaches his hand out for her to take, but she throws herself back onto the soft mattress before he could help her up. But Calum is stubborn, so he takes her hand in his and pulls her up gently. I guess you'd say, What can make me feel this way? My girl Talking 'bout my girl He sings the part at the top of his lungs, dancing around the bedroom with her. For the first time in a while, she lets out a laugh, a laugh that fills the room and his heart.

I've got so much honey the bees envy me He cradles her face, looking at her with his most charming smile. She laughs again, burying her face in his neck. I've got a sweeter song than the birds in the trees He stretches his arm out letting her unfold away from him, before twirling her back to his chest.

I guess you'd say, What can make me feel this way? My girl

Talking 'bout my girl

He swings her to the rhythm, which only makes her giggle harder. Oh, how he has missed that sound. "There she is... My wildflower. My pretty girl, my happy girl..." He comments as the song plays in the background. "You are the sweetest boy." She comments, smiling at him before bringing her head to rest on his chest. "What is happening to you, my love? You can always talk to me, you know that..." He reminds her, stroking the small of her back. "I can't..." She mumbles, forcing herself not to start crying again. "Nothing you say to me is going to make me love you less. Cross my heart and hope to die." He looks her in the eye, crossing his fingers over his heart. "Calum..." She protests. "I love you, (Y/N). I will love you after you tell me whatever it is that makes you sad, that makes you... Well, less you." He assures her. (Y/N) takes a deep breath, nodding her head before taking a step back, looking at her feet as she prepares herself to share her secret with him.

"I fucked up. Badly. I won't graduate this summer. I won't receive my degree, because I am stupid enough to fuck up the assignment of the hardest course this semester. I will fail because of that. I will fail unless I get a 90% or above on the finals. Which is impossible, because the material is harder to read than Aramaic." She finally admits, sitting down at the end of the mattress. "Baby... Why didn't you tell me earlier?" He asks her, kneeling before her. "You are always boasting about me being smart, an overachiever, an honor student. 'My girlfriend is going to graduate top of her class.' All that. I didn't want to disappoint you by telling you about my failure." She explains to him, making him sigh in realization. "First of all, you have nothing to be ashamed of. It is just a bad grade. Second, if there is anyone who can score 90%, that person is you. I've seen you working, I've seen you studying. You are a fucking boss when it comes to that. And last, but not least, you will never disappoint me. Even if you try your hardest to, you will never disappoint me." He runs his thumb over his thigh in soothing circles, trying to meet her gaze by tilting his head. "I am going to fail." She utters, tearing up. He wipes away her tears, leaning closer to kiss her cheeks. "You might. But that means nothing. You will resit the assignment, or the exam, or both, and you will be superb at it. But before that, you are going to aim for that 100%, because that's what you always do. And I will help you read for the exam. I know I can't help much, but I will be your study buddy. We are going to fight. And I promise, when you get that passing grade, I won't even say I told you so." He says cheerfully, making her smile. "I adore you." She states, covering his hands with hers. "I know, baby. I adore you too. Now, let's get you to shower, put some food in your stomach, and then make a schedule for studying." He suggests, pulling her on her feet.

Calum proved he is a man of his word. So, when she got that 100% on her finals, he didn't tell her 'I told you so'. He only smirked knowingly, and hugged his wildflower, congratulating her on proving the voices in her head absolutely wrong.

This story is actually inspired by me nearly fucking everything up. I did get a 30something percent on the assignment of the hardest course on my final semester and really went through a phase of giving up, but I also did get the 100% mark on the final exam, so I ended up passing the course and getting my degree with honors. I hope you enjoy this story.

the secret to success

hello to all my bloggers, its been a while since i last update in blog well today i would like to tell share my journey in completing my diploma. well the journey wasn't easy at all. i had to go through tons of hurdles and obstacles before i achieve my diploma. i studied for diploma in psychology program at segi college subang jaya i joined segi back in october 12 2011 and completely finish my course on november 30 2016 and graduate from this course recently on 14 october 2017? you all must be wondering right how come i joined early and finish so late. well the thing is that this diploma course was 2 and half years program and you guys won't believe me when i say this it took me 5 and a half years just to finish my diploma and graduate from it.. i was not serious in my studies at all back when i joined for this course i was playful as i was enjoying and busy in getting to know how it feels like going out and experiencing everything as i was still young and naive. i never even entered class most of the times i would skip class with my friends and go for hangout with them all due to a very bad relationship with my first boyfriend i neglected my studies and focusing more on my relationship which cost me to fail in my exams..

you all must be wondering how can i be so stupid?

when my exam grades gradually falling my parents received a letter from the head of department for a meeting and after my parents came to know about this they decided to stop me from my studies.. i differed few times and when i failed again my dad withdraw me from college because he has lost faith in me that i can study and then i was in house for 6 months and worked for like a month in gymboore play and music bangsar branch and every time i come back home sit and crying thinking as to what have i done to myself and my studies how could i break my parents trust on me just for enjoyment and then my mother told me to take tesl which i didn't want because i wanted to finish off what i've started and then one night i went to my dad and beg in his knees to allow me to continue my studies in segi so that i can finish off what i have started because my grandpa always told me when you've started something there is no turning back in life you must finish what you've started. so i join back in segi on january 7 2013 and then my journey has begun i started to put more focus in my studies and attending all the classes and participate in every class activities and yet there was ups and downs for me mostly it was downs i failed again and again i had like 12 retake subjects and resit is uncountable but what keeps me going was my grandpa words and i continued the journey without any of my family or parent's emotional support. none of it was ever easy for me but yet i keep moving forward and stood up again despite falling down so many times because my grandpa always tell me if you fail once doesn't mean you'll fail forever. i always keep his words in my mind and use that as a motivation for me to finish my diploma journey.

after lots of struggle i finally accomplish my mission

to some people and also my brother's i am just finishing my father's money and good for nothing finishing diploma after 5 years is not a big deal and not an achievement but to yes it is because after so many struggles and never ending hope and utmost faith in myself i finally managed to complete my diploma the secret behind this was my grandfather he always motivates me to become a better person and had that blind faith in me that i will become somebody in life. i would like to say thanks to papa and mummy for never giving up on me when everyone told to stop my studies and yet papa put me for studies he sacrificed his future and his youth for all of us siblings especially me. love u papa... i finally realized that its not the diploma,degree,masters or phd that we have in our hands its what we have gained from it. these diploma and all are just credit and basic to survive and to get a stable job but the real achievement is when you use what you have gained and apply it into your life. and then i have officially graduated from diploma in psychology and currently pursuing degree in tesl at city university of science and technology. my secret to success is simple never give up no matter how hard life can gets on you because those who achieved success easily wont know how to appreciate things in life but those who achieved success after lots of failure and struggles in life are something worth to talk about. life is never easy so does studies what's important is that you need to have that blind faith in yourself that you can do it and with a bit of hard work you will achieve what you want in life. failures are bound to happen if we give up easily than when we're facing the reality one day how are we going to deal with? never lose hope and faith in yourself.. there's a word saying you cant have a rainbow without rain. despite what everyone was saying about me behind my back i never give and keep continuing until i finished my journey. the key towards success is not only about never giving up its also about the utmost faith and hope that you have towards yourself and your dreams. if you can dream it, you can do it. success depends on you not others. so i hope my journey somehow inspire everyone out there to keep fighting for their dreams and never give up. i'm glad that my story and my journey in finishing my diploma course inspires my friends and which is why i decided to share it with all of you. never give up guys and keep strike harder until you achieved your goals in life...

#blessed
