Cake One-Shots

Dish Washing

A/N: Does anyone even read this book? To anyone who does, quick question to you: what kind of pizza do you want so I can send it to you because I feel really bad for not updating in 3 freaking months. The thing is, I'm not good a the whole "on time thing" so updates are never going to be consistent. Apologizing in advance aaannndd..... okay, moving on. This title is complete crap, I know, but it's almost 3 in the morning and I couldn't think of anything else. This is everything I wanted to say so... yeah. 

"CALUM! LUKE!" Luke heard Michael shout from the kitchen. "YOU'RE WASHING TONIGHT!"

Luke rolled his eyes. See, ever since the first month of living in the London house in 2012, 5SOS always had this rule: half of the band makes dinner and the other half cleans up afterwards. And now, three years later, the rule still hadn’t wavered.

Based on what Michael had just announced, he figured Mashton was cooking and Cake was cleaning tonight. Luke always hated cleaning, but it was better than the alternative. Really the only good thing to come out of the stupid rule was being with Calum, as creepy as that sounds. Well, that and not having to make his own dinner half of the time. Luke really likes spending time with Calum and, really, it’s not creepy at all because they’re never not together anyways. Besides, it’s not like they ever plan on being together, it just always ends up that way. Luke knew it really didn’t mean anything and it didn’t exactly help that he had a huge crush on Calum when the thought colored his cheeks a light pink.

“Michael, I’m literally, like, ten feet away from you, you don’t have to yell,” Luke sighed from the couch.

“Well, Calum needs to hear me, too,” the bright haired boy retorted. Luke raised an eyebrow.

“Calum’s at the store with Ashton to get stuff for dinner tonight,” he replied.

“Oh.” Michael went back to pulling out pots, pans and other kitchen utensils that he needed and Luke went back to his phone as Calum and Ashton walked through the front door. The two went right to the kitchen, no doubt to drop off their bags of groceries as Luke lazily greeted them, not moving from the couch and not even bothering to look up from his phone. He only looked up when he felt something plop down on his lap. Well, looked down even further to find Calum’s head in his lap, looking back up at him with a small grin on his face.

“Hey cleaning buddy,” he said, surprisingly bubbly for a guy who knew he had to wash dishes later.

“You heard?” Luke questioned.

“Ashton and I heard Michael shouting from a block away,” Calum shrugged his shoulders, his head still in Luke’s lap. Luke snickered. They all knew Michael could be loud but, good God, a block away?

Calum went to turn the TV on and went back to lying on Luke while Luke himself returned his attention back to his phone once again, absent-mindedly running a hand through Calum’s hair.

About 30 minutes later, Luke got a notification on Twitter: “Ashton5SOS: So I was making dinner with @Michael5SOS but we already have cake so...” There was a picture attached, which showed Luke scrolling on his phone with one hand and the other in Calum’s hair while Calum was intently watching an episode of Too Cute! on AnimalPlanet.

“You think you’re funny, don’t you, Ashton?” Luke yelled, craning his neck to look at Ashton from the couch. Calum looked up at him curiously when he felt Luke’s hand stop its movement in his hair and Luke showed him the picture. Calum turned his body and wrapped his arms around Luke’s waist, burying his face in Luke’s torso. Luke felt his face flush for the second time that day. Another Twitter notification popped up on his phone: “Michael5SOS: #ishipit #cuddlycake @Calum5SOS @Luke5SOS” Again, a picture was attached, but this one showed Calum cuddling Luke’s midsection while Luke’s face was pink and showed his obvious surprise. Luke huffed and started recording a video on his phone. The moment the camera started recording, Michael shouted.
