Mr. Hemmings | Cake

Chapter 3

I'm staying home from school today bc I'm sick so here I am lol -

3rd person's POV

  "Calum's got a cruuush!!" Morgan said and pinched Calum's cheeks. He smiled and his face lit up at the word "crush" because he knew who she was talking about - Luke. Well, Mr. Hemmings.

  "Yeah, yeah. So what." Calum muttered, his face growing hotter as the seconds go by. (Tru)

  "Hey Cal!!" Someone hollered his name and he looked up and saw the school coming into sigh and a breathless Joe running at him.

  "It is okay if I call you Cal, right? Or do you prefer Calum?" Calum's face turned crimson and he smiled slightly.

  "No no, Cal's fine."

  "Oh okay, nice. Anyway I was wondering if like you could help me with something. I don't want you to think I'm a dick or anything because the only time I talk to you is when I need help but I was wondering if maybe we could be friends ?" Joe said in a rush, the words tumbling out of his soft, pink lips.

  "I don't think you're a dick, what do you need help with?" Calum asked.

  Joe looked over at Morgan apprehensively, like he was deciding whether to say it in front of her.

  Calum gave her a look and she nodded and headed towards the school at a fast walking pace.

  "So what's up?" Calum asked, beginning a slow walk to the doors of the school.

  "Well, um, you know how you're, like, openly gay?" Joe asked, scratching the back of his head.

  Calum chuckled softly, "Well yeah," he replied smiling at the taller boy. (Joe was a good 10 inches taller than him.)

  "Okay so I'm gay...but I don't know how my parents would react if I told them. The football team is fine with it because they honestly don't give a fuck. But I'm worried about my parents. Could you like help?" Joe asked breathlessly looking into Calum's eyes.

  "Listen, Joe. My parents are the most strict Catholic's ever. They were so unapproving of me being gay, they almost kicked me out. But I begged and begged and here I am." Calum grinned at him, even though it still kind of stung.

  The brunette remembered the day he came out like it was yesterday. There was a lot of throwing, screaming, yelling, and hitting. It was....terrible.

  Joe flipped blonde hair out of his blue eyes, and looked at Calum again. "My parents aren't that strict, you know, as long as I continue to be a football player and get good grades, I'm fine. They don't care much about religion." Calum nodded, signalling for the blonde to continue.

  "But all my brothers, I have 5, have girlfriends or wives so I think I'd be kind of different I guess." Joe sighed and looked down at his shoes.

  "Hey! It's okay to be different. Being different is fucking awesome." Calum smiled at him and Joe nodded.

  "Thanks Calum,"
  "No problem! Just remember, don't let anyone force you into coming out. It needs to be your decision like when you're most comfortable with it." Joe fave him a thumbs up and ran to join his friends.

  "Seeyou around Calum!!" He yelled as the brunette smiled back and waved.

  "Holy fucking shit Calum you're in love." Morgan said from her place standing at her locker.

  "Maybe..." Calum said, still staring in the direction Joe went even though he's long gone.

  "Well you should like him anyway, I mean you have a better chance with Joe than Mr. Hemmings because he's...what...23 and you're 17!! Thats illegal as fuck." Calum nodded, agreeing with her. Whatever, Mr. Hemmings is still fucking hot. He thought while getting books out of his locker.

**********

  "Mr. Hood, what do you like to do in your free time?" Mr. Hemmings was leaning against Calum's desk with a slight smirk on his face.

  The class was just minding their own business as if Calum didn't totally have a boner and Luk- Mr. Hemmings wasn't hot as fuck.

  "Well," Calum now had a shit eating smirk on his face, "I'm a half time bassist and a full time dick sucker."

  The whole class burst into fits of laughter, especially Joe (him being gay as well) and Mr. Hemmings was just a flustered mess.

  "Calum, that's a detention. I don't tolerate that type of language in my class."

  "Okay...full time penis sucker? That is the scientific term, you know." Calum had no idea where this confidence is coming from.

  "Would you like another detention, Mr. Hood?" Luke held up another slip and the smile on Calum's face was wiped off as all the laughs stopped and the room was dead silent.

  "No, no, that's okay. I'm sorry Mr. Hemmings,  I am." Calum muttered, his face turning red.

  Luke nodded, "I'll see you after school today, then."
