2 - Family

"Ugh," Zander sighed, plopping down onto the living room couch. "I'm exhausted"

Milly sat onto his shins, causing him to jump in pain. "Couldn't be me!"

He shoved her off his legs, furrowing his eyebrows. "Get off me shithead!"

Milly laughed, pushing her friend back.

"I'm so proud of us you guys!"luke beamed, pulling Milly off of Zander's legs.

Hailey smiled. "Me too. We did amazing"

Shannon placed her purse onto the counter, her keys rattling. "Ugh. I'm pooped. You guys will have to cook for yourselves because I'm going straight to bed"

"I'll cook" Zander said, beginning to stand up from his place on the couch.

"NO!" His band mates exclaimed in unison.

"How about Sean or I cooks instead?" Luke replied, grabbing Zander's wrist before he could leave. "Not that we don't want you to it's just-"

"Don't worry, I was kidding" Zander smiled, wrapping his arm around Luke's shoulders.

"Will someone come with me while I cook?" Luke said, looking around at his friends.

No one replied.

"You guys are mean" Luke said, standing up from the couch. Zander grabbed his hand.

"We were just messing with you Luke" Zander chuckled, standing up with his boyfriend. "You can teach me how to cook."

The couple disappeared into the kitchen, leaving Hailey, Jake, Sean and Milly to themselves.

"They're gonna get jizz in our food" Milly said, rolling her eyes.

Hailey furrowed her eyebrows. "Um, ew? I don't think so"

The pink haired devil shrugged. "Never know."

Jake sighed, laying back on the floor. "I have to go to my dads house tomorrow."

"Is that a bad thing?" Sean asked

"I guess it's not that bad, but me and milo have to share a room" Jake said, fiddling with his fingers. "And my dad is kinda mean"

Hailey took his hand. "I'm sorry Jake. How is he mean if you don't mind me asking?"

Jake shrugged. "He just yells a lot I guess. He's kind of an asshole. Thinks he's better then everyone."

"I'm sorry man" Sean replied. He had some sort of comforting aura that Jake couldn't figure out.

Hailey looked down at the ground. "My mom died when I was 3. I don't remember her too much, but my dad always says I look just like her."

"Well, she must've been beautiful" Jake smirked, sitting up next to the teal haired girl. He rested his chin on her shoulder.

She chuckled at his remark, blushing lightly. Hailey and Jake had always kind of had a thing for each other. Even before they were friends he made flirty comments. There was almost a mutual understanding between them that they had something going on, but neither of them acted on it. "Not the time Jake."

"Sorry princess-"

"Hey cunts" Zander started, finding his seat on the couch. "Whatcha talking about?"

"Hailey and Jakes parents" Milly replied. "How Hailey's mom died and Jakes dad is an asshole"

Zander threw his head back and grunted. "You and me both Jake. He left when I was like, ion know, 4 or 5?"

"Dude I thought I had it bad, you two have it much worse."

"Eh, don't belittle your problems just because some other people have it 'worse'" Zander said, throwing up air quotes.

Jake nodded. He took what Zander said to heart.

"How about you Sean?" Hailey asked.

"Well, I don't know. My parents are just always arguing. And when they're not arguing with each other they're yelling at me over dumb shit."

"Y'all have wild lives. My parents are married and don't beat me all the time" Milly said, leaning on Zander's shoulder. "Sometimes they yell though"

Zander chuckled. "Yeah but your a little shit so you deserve it"

"I got the food in the oven" Luke said, sitting on the other side of Zander opposite of Milly.
"What's going on?"

"We're talking about our parents" Sean replied.

"I can just imagine you having like a huge picture perfect family" Jake said, chuckling at the drummer. Luke was awfully nice for a teenage boy, so Jake had always just assumed he was raised by good people.

Luke didn't reply to Jakes comment.

"Did I say something wrong?"

Luke looked at Zander with a sort of pouty face. Zander looked back at him with so much pity in his eyes and took his hand.

"You don't have to say anything baby" Zander muttered.

By now Jakes heart was racing. He wasn't sure why the couple was so upset.

"I got kicked out." Luke said bluntly.

Jake was take aback. What could Luke have possibly done to get kicked out? "What?! Why?"

The drummer shrugged in response. "They don't agree with my lifestyle"

Though Luke was unclear, Jake knew exactly what he meant.

"It was only a year ago so I don't really like to talk about it.. but basically they were mad that I like boys and I got upset and we started arguing and they told me I had to either go to a conversion camp or find somewhere else to live."

Jake stared in awe at the golden-eyes boy, guilt settling in as he noticed his eyes glassing over.

The pianist nudged Milly off his shoulder and pulled his boyfriend into a tight hug. He rubbed his back gently.

"It's okay Luke" Zander mumbled. He gently kissed Luke's forehead.

"Are you okay?" Milly asked.

The drummer nodded yes, blinking away the tears in his eyes. "I'm alright.. And besides, my grandparents are pretty cool"

Jake could tell Luke was still hurt even if he acted like he wasn't, but he decided to brush it off. "Yeah?"

"Yup. They only speak polish though, so I have to do all the talking in public settings"

"Is polish your second language or something?" Jake questioned.

Luke shook his head no. "No, I spoke both growing up. Polish at home english at school"

In all jakes guilt, he was happy Luke was able to find the bright side.
