Calum was busy, it had been awhile since the night he spent sleeping in Michael's arms and he hadn't have been on his Malum twitter account mainly because Michael and Calum were getting more touchy feely with each other. If they were watching tv together they were curled up with each other. They were sleeping in each other's beds almost every night. Calum didn't understand why there was this change but he wasn't going to question it he loved every minute of it. Well until Luke came and started asking questions while Calum was working on a song by himself in the backyard, his acoustic guitar on his lap, a piece of paper and pen on the chair beside him to write down lyrics and notes.

"So what's going on with you and Michael?"

"What do you mean?" Calum asks innocently. 

"Don't play innocent, you two have been attached at the hip lately and extra cuddly. Do you like each other?" Luke asks not beating around the bush.

"Luke there's nothing going on."

"Calum you blush at everything he says, you have for years. You are always caught staring at Michael, do you like him?"

Calum was shocked, he didn't think Luke of all people actually paid attention, he always thought Luke was oblivious which might be bad on Calum's part for doubting his friend's observation skills.

"Luke, I...I've been in love with Michael for a couple years now." Calum admits quietly and he hearts Luke suck in his breath.

"What the fuck dude. You're just telling me this now?" Luke asks incredulously.

"It's not something I want everyone to know. Except now you and Ashton both know."

"Are you ever going to tell Michael?"

 "No I am not."

"Cal he could feel the same way."

"Let's just let it go for now. I want to finish this song." Calum mentions pointing to the unfinished lyrics he was working on.

"Oh okay, sorry, I will let you be, but I want to see it once it's done." Luke informs him.

"I will mate don't worry, you know I run my songs by all of you...except for the ones that are about Michael but hey." 

"You have songs about him?!" Luke says a bit loudly.

"Shush! Keep it down, just forget I said anything."

Luke pretends to zip his mouth shut with his fingers and throw away the key and gets up to leave Calum to finish his song. He couldn't believe it, he knew something was going on he just didn't think it was this serious. His only option? Talk to Ashton about matchmaking.

 It was later that evening when Luke pulled Ashton away to talk to him. He left Michael and Calum cuddled up on the couch watching some show. Luke had told them he wanted Ashton's opinion on something so they didn't seem too suspicious. Luke made sure they weren't followed and went into his room so they wouldn't be overheard. Ashton was extremely confused as to why Luke wanted to talk to him alone. Usually if there was something serious they just talked as a band. There were no secrets, well except where feelings are involved.

"Okay we have a situation." Luke starts and Ashton was even more confused, he just gave Luke a puzzled look motioning for him to continue. "Michael and Calum. It's obvious they like each other. We need to do something." 

"You want to meddle?"

"Yes! Come on, they need the push to get together. They'd be so cute. Calum's been in love with him for years!"
