cliché » luke gets the boy

(outside of the Hood household. Luke is stood in the back garden, below Calum's bedroom window. it's dark outside, the moon is full and the stars are visible)

Luke: (picks up a small pebble, tossing it at Calum's window. repeats the action for a minute before Calum is opening the window and leaning out)

Calum: (confused) luke, what the fuck are you doing?

Luke: (smiles wide) romeo, romeo! where for art thou romeo?

Calum: (shaking his head) were you throwing pebbles at my window?

Luke: (nods) rapunzel, let down your hair!

Calum: (laughing) do you want me to come down?

Luke: would you, please? i've run out of lines.

(Calum closes the window, disappearing from view, only to reappear in th garden minutes later.)

Luke: is that my jumper?

Calum: (quickly looks down at his shirt) shit, um, yeah? i'm sorry.

Luke: (shakes his head, walking over to stand before Calum) it looks good on you.

Calum: (blushes, biting his lip) why are you even here? and those dorky script lines, what's with that?

Luke: (shrugs) i'm a cliché guy. tossing rocks at your window, script lines, rescuing my princess from the tower... or your bedroom, same thing.

Calum: that still doesn't exain why you're here.

Luke: (takes Calum's hand in his) just follow me, okay?

(Calum hesitantly allows Luke to lead him into the garden, the flowers in full bloom this time of year. the archway is covered in vines, flowers of all colours growing, forming a path to the clearing in the center)

Calum: (smiling) i've always loved our garden.

(in the center of the garden, a blanket is laid on the ground, a guitar placed on top of it)

Calum: (curious) what is all of this?

Luke: (sits down on the soft blanket) come, sit with me (Calum sits as Luke picks up the acoustic guitar) i haven't played for you in awhile, can i?

Calum: (excited) of course you can

Luke: (picks up the guitar and begins to strum beautiful, melodic chords)

(singing) You look so wonderful in.. my sweater (giggles) I love your hair like that.

The way it falls on the side of your neck (continues to strum the chords, singing softly)

Calum: (blushing, watching the way Luke's lips form the lyrics, his fingers plucking the strings)

Luke: (singing) You've got that kind of look in your eyes, as if no one knows anything but us (looks up, his baby blues meeting with Calum's dark, alluring eyes) And should this be the last thing I see, I want you to know it's enough for me. 'Cause all that you are is all that I'll ever need.

Calum: (listening carefully to the lyrics, realizing) oh my... luke...

Luke: (singing) I'm so in love, so in love.

Calum: (tears brimming his eyes, his heart heavy, feeling pure adoration) i l- oh my god...

Luke: (singing) And all of the voices surrounding us here, they just fade out when you take a breath (notices tears cascading down Calum's cheeks, immediately stops, setting the guitar down quickly and crawling closer to the boy) are you crying? oh, i'm so sorry. i didn't...

Calum: (sniffles, shaking his head) no, it's... it's so perfect. you, you are so perfect (leans forward, the pair's foreheads resting together) did you mean it?

Luke: (nodding, whispers) i love you, calum. i always have and i always will (strained) i am so sorry for all of the things i have done, please try to forgive me. i swear, i will never intentionally harm you again.

Calum: (chokes back a sob) i love you, luke, endlessly and unconditionally, always.

Luke: (smiles, caressing Calum's cheek softly with his thumb) can i please kiss you?

Calum: (without hesitation, smashes their lips together, letting out a quiet moan)

Luke: (places his hands on either side of Calum's face, one sliding to the back of his neck, keeping him close as their lips move against one another in sync)

Calum: (slowly pulls away, resting their foreheads together again, breathing erratic)
Luke: (smiles) lay with me, cal. the stars are out tonight (carefully lays back, allowing Calum to rest his head against his chest)

Calum: you're so lovely

Luke: (presses a kiss to Calum's soft hair, wrapping an arm around him securely) look! (points to the sky as a shooting star shimmers by)

Calum: (shocked) that's the first time i have ever seen one!

Luke: make a wish, love.

Calum: (smiles) be mine?

Luke: (laughs) that isn't a wish!

Calum: (rolls his eyes playfully) i wish you were mine

Luke: (places his hand below Calum's chin, titling the boy's head upward. leans in, kissing him softly) wish granted, sweetheart, i'm yours.
