(Before I start I just want to say this book is still on hold and regular updates will not start again. I am in school and have zero time to write. I only decided to do this because my friend is annoying.

Also I very sincerely apologize for the fact that this started as a Calum fic and now it's focusing on Luke. I tried to get it back on track but not very hard and it's kinda shitty. I'll try harder to bring him back.)

Luke

------------------

My heart swells and I struggle not to squeal when I see Oliver walking towards me. My huge smile starts to fade as he gets closer. I can see he had been crying. He stops once he is about five feet away from me and when I try to step closer he backs away, wincing like it physically hurt him.

"Oli.." He doesn't look at me, but I can tell this won't end well. "Please, listen to me."

"I can't," he surprises me by saying. His voice cracks and I can't help but let out a dry sob. "You have to leave us alone, Luke." His voice cracks again when he says my name and this time it's a full on sob and I let tears fall without trying to wipe them away. "You were with my sister. I did this to her. This is my fault, you have to leave us alone." He repeats.

I eliminate the distance between us fast enough to grab his arm before he can move away. "Oliver, listen to me, I love you." I've started to whisper as it's hard to yell when you're crying this hard.

"You can't. You're supposed to love her, not me. You're supposed to be with Rose."  He starts to cry now and it only makes things harder on me. Tears stream down my face.

"Oliver, I don't like her. I'm fucking gay." I begin to tell and a few kids who had gathered in the park turned to look at us: two grown boys, sobbing and screaming about how gay they are for each other. "I am a flaming homosexual."

"I'm so sorry." And then he's gone and I'm sitting on a swing crying my eyes out with little kids staring at me.

----------------

I sit on the couch in my new apartment with the ancient memory replaying in my head.

"Luke?" A voice called out over the sound of the television. The owner appears to the left of the screen and smiles. "Not even a hello to your terrific boyfriend?" He fake pouts and places his small hands on his hips. I smile and open my arms for him. He walks into them and wraps his own around me, placing a kiss on my forehead.

"Hello," I whisper and kiss his shoulder. He smiles as he pulls away, pushing his lips against mine. I grin into the kiss before softly pulling away.

"I love you, Hunter."

Melanie

--------------

"Mel, I don't wanna go," Calum's usually strong voice is nothing but a whimper as he takes a break from packing his things to wrap his arms around me.

Going to university without Calum was hard. He stayed in Perth while I went to Sydney. We stayed in touch for about three months, but after a while the stress of school and the distance overpowered wanting to contact him. We broke it off soon after.

Four months later I'm focused on school and being an independent woman.

Rose

-------------

"As long as you don't fall in love with him," I laugh before I realize how insensitive my 'joke' was. Oliver gives me a half-assed smile that quickly falls. I mumble a quick 'sorry'. He shrugs pathetically. I know how Luke can be a touchy topic for him, but I keep slipping up. He only wanted to meet my new boyfriend, Heyden. "Of course you'll meet him eventually." This time his smile is slightly more convincing.

"Aren't you going to dinner with him tonight?" He asks between sips of his heavily sweetened coffee. "Can I come?" By his sly smile I can tell he knows I won't be able to tell him no.

This is shit and I am shit and oliviluke is shit. I'm only updating because my friend is the worst.  This is shit never forget that. I'm serious don't forget that this is shit.
