Luke felt like if he were to melt into a puddle and never solidify again he would be content right now. All of the Hoods' were staring him straight in the eyes. And Luke felt mortified, like why the fuck did Michael say 'owner'? Like was it so hard to just say roommate. Michael was slightly giggling at what he had said and how Luke's face and neck were flushed.

Michael made no move to save Luke from this awkward situation so Luke cleared his throat, "Um hello, I'm Michael's ROOMMATE. It's nice to meet you again Mr and Mrs. Hood and you too Calum." Luke had no idea how he managed to spit all of that out but he was pretty proud of himself for it. The Hoods' just smiled at him and said a greeting and told Michael that they were staying for dinner to discus what just happened. Luke internally groaned. Calum took both their hands and pulled them to his bedroom.

Luke would have never guessed that he would be in this situation ever in his life. Calum didn't look like he was surprised to see Luke and that confused the boy. "So you finally told him Mike? Wow I didn't think you would actually do it." Calum said. Michael countered with, "Well you little shit head, it wasn't supposed to happen. He came home and I pulled a you and he found me." Luke was beyond lost in the conversation. He was just awkwardly sitting on Cal's bed until their conversation stopped.

Suddenly the kiwi boy turned to look at him, and quite honestly it scared him. "So I guess you really did have someone waiting at home for you, didn't you?" Calum said, Luke flushed remembering what he was talking about. Now it was Michael's turn to be confused. Luke just shrugged, "Yeah I guess so, just didn't think that I'd almost be being the shit out of him with Ash's baseball bat." Calum started to laugh until tears were forming in his eyes.

Luke felt better feeling the tension fading away with both his and Calum's giggles. Michael still sat there confused until both boys were done. Michael just shook his head not caring anymore just happy that the two got along. As time grew on the conversations flowed easier. Luke could tell that the two boys grew up together. They may have not been biological brothers but that didn't matter to them. It made Luke miss he brothers no matter how big of assholes they were.

When Luke drifted out of his headspace and back into the conversation when he remembered what Michael said, "Wait Michael, what did you mean when you said that you 'pulled a Calum'?" Michael just laughed, "Well you see here Luke, Calum is a subconscious shifter. He doesn't mean to shift like what I mostly do. It can happen at any second and time. When you found me I was taking a nap and like 20 minuets before you came in was when I threw some clothes on. So I wasn't meaning to shift and you to find me, it was a accident."

Luke had no words, especially when finding out Calum was a shifter, which shouldn't have surprised him since Michael told him his story. And well it made sense. But he's not gonna lie he wanted to know if he was a cat one too but he thought it would have been rude to ask. But Michael beat him to it, shoving Calum with a light 'just show him cal, he's already seen me.' Calum just rolled his eye and stripped to his boxers. And no Luke was totally not watching Calum's muscles flex when taking off the garments, like no not at all.

Calum just winked at Luke before shifting. Luke noticed that it was a weird process and that it wasn't as quick as when Michael did it. It looked like Calum was crouching but slowly his features started to change, his skin changing color, his bone structure shifting around. And Luke couldn't think anything more than that it was a beautiful process. When Calum was done Luke was in awe, he was literally the cutest thing ever. Luke had to hold in a squeal looking at the cute puppy before him, an oh fucking course Calum was a dog shifter, like duh Calum fit it so well.

Calum's pup body was a dark grey with white spots. And his eyes were the same deep chocolate brown, and Luke just wanted to hug him forever. And soon Luke saw another small body join him. There was his precious little Mikey. Luke need a moment to gather himself because he could not handle the cuteness. And when both Mikey and Cal jumped on him giving him kisses Luke couldn't hold it in. He picked both of them up and gave them kisses and cuddles, Luke could give less of a fuck that he was kissing his coworker right now.

When the boys shifted back Luke couldn't mask his disappointment. But he couldn't help but look at the boys bare bodies. Mostly Michael's but he had a few peaks at Calum. They were both hot and Luke was once again disappointed when they were fully dressed. Luke even more at Michael when he noticed the boy had dressed in his own clothes and not Luke's anymore. Calum just smirked at Luke and walked out of his room. "Sorry I lost my cool, you guys are just so cute I couldn't help myself." Luke told Michael.

Michael waved him off just saying that he didn't mind as long as he was still his #1 shifter and Luke doesn't leave him for Calum. And he cuddled into Luke's body. Luke just sighed contently thinking how ridiculous that idea was, he'd never leave his Mikey. When Calum entered the room seeing the boys snuggling he couldn't help but to 'awwww', "Hate to break up this love fest but dinners done. It's a little early but mom and dad figured you guys would have to leave soon."
