walmart :: cake au [slow updates]

chapter one

miley cyrus blasted through the speakers of lukes jeep as he made his way to the nearest store. his windows were rolled down, and he was most certainly embarrassing himself as he sang along to 'party in the usa'.

honestly, luke didn't care. first of all, no one is awake at this point anyway. second, the only thing he was remotely worried about was getting to walmart, so he could buy his sister the products she needed. he was actually quite shocked when his sister, Beatrice-Rose, barged into his room crying as she said something along the lines of killing him if he didn't buy what she needed.

luke, being the innocent boy who worries more about other people's happiness more than his own, said yes.

he turned into the familiar empty parking lot and parked his car in the handicapped slot. he shut the car off and walked into the hot australian weather. although it was 12:31 in the morning, the heat was still smothering.

"fuck you, bea," luke mumbled under his breath as he felt beads of sweat roll down his forehead. he entered the sliding doors and started singing a different miley cyrus song to himself. it's not like anyone is here besides the tired workers that couldn't give a shit about luke, so he carried on with his quiet singing.

luke shoved his hands in his gray sweatpants and maneuvered through the many aisles throughout the store. it took him awhile to find the toiletry section, but he eventually did. he was shocked, to say the least.

luke went to grab his phone out of his pocket and groaned when he realized he left it on the couch.

"you have got to be kidding me," he mumbled under his breath while holding the bridge of his nose between his two fingers. he felt so stupid for not asking exactly what he needed to get and even more stupid for not bringing his phone.

"why can't there just be one type of tampon, what the fuck," luke grumbles. he looked around hoping to find someone who knew what to do, but the only people there were a few employees that were wandering around the store, attempting to clean up some messes that careless shoppers created. he sighed for the umpteenth time that night and turned back into the aisle.

just as luke grabbed a random box of tamons, a boy around lukes age turned into the aisle looking for some sort of mess to clean up.

it wasn't until luke had the box firm in his hand when he looked up to see the most beautiful human being that's ever walked in his path.

luke immediately turned away and looked down at his shoes, so he wouldn't bring attention to himself. however, as he went to place the box back on the shelf, it slipped and landed on the floor.

luke mentally cursed to himself as he felt eyes landing on him. he bent down to pick up the box and awkwardly glanced at the boy. In the 2.5 seconds that he looked at him, he tried to take in everything. all luke could see was black hair, tan skin, chubby cheeks, and the most beautiful pair of brown eyes that he has ever seen.

Just as the two made eye contact, Luke's breath hitched, and he looked away. he placed the box back on the shelf and turned towards the boy who was now facing the boxes.

"excuse me," luke said after awkwardly coughing.

"yes?" the boy asked with a fake nice attitude evident in his voice. luke couldn't tell if it was just because he was tired or because he was just an ass.

"I-uh, I need to get my sister some girl products," luke stated while scratching the back of his neck, one of his many nervous habits. "could you maybe help me?"

by now, the boy was fully facing luke, and even though luke had a slight advantage in height, he still felt intimidated.

"mate, does it look like I have a vagina?"
