The Gay Code (cake au)

Luke

I was avoiding Calum as I need to figure out a plan. I was sure that May was wrong and I was ready to prove that. If I ask Ashton to go on a date with me I can prove that I'm better than whoever May thinks he has a crush on. For starters I'm romantic, adorable, tall, have really nice eyes, not to pale. I have lip ring which makes girls swoon. Maybe I can ask him out using a song. I'm not much of a writer but I can sing so I could easily give it a go.

He probably like that since I know he plays and writes music in his spare time. There where he spends his Tuesday lunch times. I decide to head that way since I knew I had time before lesson started again and then I'd have to go back to being Calums fake boyfriend. I carefully planned what I was going to say since I didnt want to mess up and then I would be embarrassed and Ashton would probably feel like I was a class A fool.

Once I had everything planned out I headed into the music room, peeking in the window to see what was going on. After all Ashton need to be alone in order for me to do this. Ash was sat on a table facing the wall so I was hidden. Although I did fear someone sneaking up on me. I wasn't sure if I could play that one off without exposing myself. Not to mention the embarrassment. He was obviously talking to someone but I couldnt see who. I decide to watch what was going on and see who was in there. Fingers crossing that it was just a teacher who would be there for only a few minutes. Taking a glance away I was thankful that no one was about in this area. The sun outside keeping them away.

Although I couldnt hear what was occurring but who ever else it was in there seem to be making Ashton laugh quiet a bit. Something which I loved doing. I also loved making Calum laugh too. His eyes always crinkle and he would exaggerate how funny it was by throwing his head back. My legs were beginning to cramp from the position I was in and my phone vibrated in my pocket. I pulled it out quickly ignoring the call. There was only a few minutes left till the bell went for next lesson. So I would finally see who it was.

Looking up from my phone, a look of horror crossed my face. Ashton no longer was looking at a person as his eyes were closed and his lips pressed against someone elses. That some else had dyed hair and a skin tone I would recognizes from anywhere. Michael.

Holding back a sob, I bolted to the nearest bathroom and let myself begin to wallow in tears, pain and snot. The bell went, something I was grateful for, since no one would see me in my sorrow. After a while and the tears had stopped I pulled my phone out and text calum. Blinking away a few lingering tears that where left over away I managed to see the screen and be able to text Calum something that he would be able to read.

I waited but no foot steps came. Calum was meant to be my best friend, heck he was even my fake boyfriend and hes already failing. I know he'll get let out of class easily, the teacher couldn't care. He was a decent student who rarely ditched not to mention a sporting star which always seem to go down well. So where was he? I text him again and decide to text every minute in order to blow his phone up with notifications which he then cant ignore. Call me selfish but at that moment I didn't care. I need my so called best friend. He either get fed up and come or turn his phone off and knowing Calum he'd come.

I heard the door open which was then followed by Calums voice. "Luke". I've never felt so relieved in my life, A half sob left my lips and the door swung open to reveal Calum standing there. A feeling of happiness sparked across me. Glad that I had he had come. "Oh Luke" he murmured crouching down and pulling me into a hug. I clung to him before letting the tears flow. I felt slightly bad soaking his black t-shirt with them because that was going to look awful in the long run.

"Come on Lukey i'll take you home" Calum said once my crying had subsided. I nodded my head in agreement not wanting on one to see me. I'd rather wallow in self pity without any one seeing me. Calum got to his feet and I followed him out. I wish I could still be clinging to him but its easier to sneak out this way. The don't actually call home unless you miss a whole day of lessons so missing this won't get me in trouble.

"What about your stuff" I asked Calum realising he was empty handed. "Its fine I've text Michael whos going to pick it up for me" He replied as we hurried out the school gates. The name almost made me cry again but I wasn't exactly going to spill the beans to Calum it wouldn't be fair. He hadn't even asked me what had happened he just knew something bad had. Thats why hes a good friend. Doesn't even question what I've done or whats happened just knows he needs to be there.

"So do you want to tell me whats happened" He asked. I shook my head. "Not yet. When were home" I added. I didn't want to feel like I was pushing him to the side when he was trying to help. "Okay" Calum replied taking my hand and giving it a squeeze. So far I could count on him.
