Carter's P.O.V

After Ashton and Cal finished talking and Calum left, we all climbed out of our spots and sat in the couches, just staring at each other.

"Why couldn't he just tell us?" Luke asked and I shrugged.

"He thinks we are gonna hate him even more because he is different. We have to make him realize it's not that big of a deal. His sexuality isn't ginna effect how we feel about him." I said and Luke nodded.

"I mean, I feel a little weird because he has seen me naked, but it's nothing for me to freak out about. It's not like he ever grabbed my penis or anything." Michael said. Luke and Ashton nodded, so they are probably all in the same boat.

"So, when do we invite Calum over?" I asked.

"Whenever you guys are ready. I'm sire he will tell you all more than he told me. He is gonna have to explain himself over again, as well as apologize for the way he acted. And as you know, I am supposed to come out with him." Ashton said.

"Yeah, but we have to act like we don't know anything. We can't let Calum know that we set the whole thing up to get the truth out if him. He will hate all of us for sure." Gabby said, and I nodded in agreement.

"This is gonna be harder than we all thought isn't it?" Mikey asked.

"Most likely. Let's just arrange to hangout with Calum tomorrow. And we will have to figure out how to act as Iit we never knew about his big secret." Luke said.

"But how do we do that? I just wanna run up and hug him and tell him it'll all be okay. I wanna let him know that I would have been there for him from the start if he had just told me the truth. He didn't need to fake having feelings for me, to fix himself." I said, sadness in my voice.

I feel so bad for him. I don't wanna have to lie anymore, but if he knew the truth, I can't imagine how he would feel.

I don't ever want him to feel like he is a burden, or that he has to pretend around us.

"Hey Ash, I forgot my keys in the table." I heard Calum sat as he walked into the room and stared at all of us.

"Sorry guys, I won't stay long. I just need to grab my keys and then I will leave." Calum said, and I shook my head.

"No you can stay. It's fine. They're your friends too." I said and Calum gave a small smile.

"Okay, I need to talk to you guys anyway." Calum said, grabbing his keys and put them in his pocket.

Oh dear....

Here we go.
