Growing Up With Gay Parents

Ch. 5

  "Why don't we have to worry about Quinn?" Josh whispered into my ear. I turned to look at him and then got close to his ear.

"She's not into boys." I said as quietly as I could. He pulled away from me and looked at her really quick before looking back at me with his eyebrows raised.

"Really?" He asked. I nodded my head.

"What are you guys talking about?" Luke asked me.

"Nothing." I said.

"You look good in blue." Josh said. "Compliments your eyes." I turned and gave him a weird look and he shrugged his shoulders while I heard Luke and Michael laughing. "What?"

"Could you get anymore gay?" I asked. Everyone laughed as Josh shrugged his shoulders and smiled at me.

"Well I am gay so probably not." He said, giving me a look.

"Wait." Calum said.

"Here we go." Ashton mumbled, rolling his eyes. Calum threw a roll at Ashton and looked back at me and Josh.

"You're gay?" He asked.

"Yes." Everyone answered for him. His face got red and he looked around at everyone. Me and Josh started laughing and Calum rolled his eyes. Luke threw his arm over the back of Michael's chair and smiled over at Calum, rolling his eyes at him.

"I swear to God. You are the most oblivious person ever." Ashton said.

"I am not." Calum said. Ashton leaned forward and squinted his eyes at Calum.

"I shared a fucking hotel room with you everywhere we went for Nine years. Nine." Ashton said, Luke and Michael started laughing. "I know you better than you know yourself. I know your habits, I know your favorite and least favorite foods. Calum. I know that you are in fact the most oblivious person I have ever met. And Luke and Michael were pretty fucking oblivious to their feelings for each other."

"It only took three years to realize." Luke said with a laugh as he kissed Michael's cheek. I smiled and shook my head.

"I'm glad it didn't take me three years to realize." Josh said. Everyone looked at him weird. "Do you guys not know how we met?" He asked pointing between us.

"No. Do tell." Calum said, leaning forward so he could see him, smirking.

"It was at school, obviously. But um, I had seen him around and never really said anything to him, but uh, one day I 'accidentally' bumped into him and made him drop all his stuff-"

"Classic." Michael said with a snort.

"Shut up." Josh said. Michael scoffed and Luke let out a laugh. "Anyways, I said I was sorry and that I didn't mean to and helped him pick his stuff up and everything and then I flirted with him a little bit."

"It didn't work." I said, rolling my eyes. They all laughed at that, even Josh.

"No, it didn't." He said with a laugh. "I didn't even know if he was gay or straight or anything. I just kind of went for it. I kept at it for two or three months until we eventually became friends and I was happy with that."

"You fucking liar, you wanted in my pants since day one." I said, making everyone cackle.

"I wanted to be in a relationship with you." He said, making me roll my eyes. "Don't roll your eyes at me, I got what I wanted didn't I?"

"Ok I admit, I knew you guys were close but I didn't know you guys were actually dating." Ashton said. Riley looked at him and smiled before looking back over at us. "I mean, I knew you were gay-"

"Did everyone know I was gay?" I asked. They all looked at each other and then at me before they started laughing. Josh threw his arm around me and kissed my cheek as I rolled my eyes at everyone.

"I knew when you were like, five years old." Calum said from beside me. I looked at him, my mouth open a little. He chuckled and nodded.

"Five?" Luke asked him. He looked at him and nodded. "I didn't even know that early."

"We had a special bond." Calum said, wrapping his arm around me and bringing me into his chest. I struggled to get away from him, pushing on his chest. He finally let go and I took a deep breathe, glaring at him. "I could always tell."

"Well that's lovely and all but I'm done with this conversation." I said, making everyone laugh again.
