Too late {Luke Hemmings}

Lies

It finally happened. After all this time we where finally together and I couldn't contain my happiness "What is with the grin? It's been plastered on your face all day" Michael commented as we packed up after band practice "Oh leave him alone Michael, he's got the girl. It's about time too" Ashton commented winking at me I chuckled at him and shrugged "So are we going for food or what?" Calum said poking his head around the door "Coming" I answered and we followed him out of the door.

I'd been feeling bad that I hadn't spent as much time with the boys as I usually did so I'd suggested we go to get pizza after practice. We slid into one of the booths and a woman came over to take our orders "So I'm sorry I haven't been with you a lot in the past few weeks" I began after she walked away Ashton waved it off "It's alright we understand, It's cute how loved up you are" He said grinning I shook my head smiling feeling myself blush a little but I felt better now that he'd said that. I looked at Calum and he was just staring out of the window "Cal, Are you okaay?" I said nudging him he jumped "Huh? Nah I'm just thinking" He replied faking a smile "Do you want to talk about it?" I asked quieter as Michael and Ashton got deeply into a talk about a new video game that was coming out soon that Michael was talking very enthusiastically about and Ashton sat politely listening but he looked uninterested "No no I'm fine" Calum said smiling again.

Calum's POV

It was lovely seeing Luke smiling, I don't remember the last time I'd seen him smile so much. But little did he know that it would all come to an end before he knew what was happening. I knew how much it would hurt Luke if he found out how long I'd known now. It hurt me too, That I couldn't tell my best friend that his happiness was coming to an end at some unknown time in the future but all we knew was that it wouldn't be long now. But how could I say no to Katie almost in tears begging me not to tell him? As much as I wanted to I knew that I wouldn't do it. Everytime Luke saw Katie she would be having to work harder to pretend that everything was okay but it wasn't and it never would be okay again.

So when Luke asks me if theres anything I want to talk about my whole body shouts yes but I force the word no out of my mouth. No, I dont have anything I need to tell him but it's eating me up inside. More then he will ever know.
