He's just not that into you ♡ muke

- 29 - you're amazing - 29 -

"They are absolutely disgusting," Luke said as he stacked another handful of popcorn in his mouth.

"You could always knock you know."

His response was clearly the wrong one if the expression on Luke's face was anything to go by.

"I always walk right in, always. I did that before Calum even moved here. Before he started working in your bar and before they became a thing. If anything I should be having sex there."

Michael snorted, resulting in his drink pouring through his nose.

"You see," Luke stated. "That's exactly why I don't bring you as my plus one to the parties. I and other assistants would sip our drinks and complain about how we have to take all these Instagram pictures of our bosses and you'd just say we're overreacting."

"First of all, Ashton doesn't let you take any photos of him at all, second I never even heard you call him that."

"Third." Luke interrupted. "You're my best friend and should be agreeing with me."

Michael offered Luke his prettiest smile in apology. "If I'd always agree with you, my bar would be called Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum."

"Dude, that and bartenders dressed as slutty pirates would make you a billionaire."

"You're absolutely stupid."

"And Wherever you are is a better name."

"I'm seriously thinking about throwing you out of the apartment right now."

Luke huffed and threw back his imaginary long hair. "You love me."

Michael only rolled his eyes and concentrated on yet another romantic comedy Luke made him watch.

When the film was over they cleaned the dishes before settling back on the sofa with cold beers in their hands.

"I might have done something stupid," Michael said, not daring to look at his best friend.

Luke didn't remember a time the older man actually did something that was hard to fix.

"I'm sure it's not that bad." He bumped him with his elbow, making Michael look up.

"Remember Lee?"

Luke scrunched his brows in confusion. He was usually great with names as it was a part of his job but he had no idea who that was.

"Shawn's ex-girlfriend?"

"Oh, the dancer. What about her?" Now Luke was curious, as a sucker for happy endings, he's been infatuated with Shawn's love life ever since Michael told him about it. He even considered dating the half a decade younger man himself since he realised what a good heart he had.

"Shawn is actually a musician, a really good one."

Luke smiled. "If you say he is then I'm sure you're right."

The smile was returned and Michael opened up the topic a bit more. "He and I are both jamming on Saturday and I might have made Calum pin the posters on her school."

"With his name on them?"

"Picture and everything," Michael answered, quietly this time.

Luke was quiet for a minute, trying to come up with a good answer. In his opinion, it was a great idea. But he didn't know Shawn well enough to judge Michael's actions based on that.

"What does Calum think?"

"He said that if she comes it'll be a great idea if she doesn't, I mean maybe she won't even see the fliers and posters, and Shawn finds out that it could go south."

"I think it's great you're doing that for him. Letting him perform and everything. You know you're amazing right?"

"Shut up."

"No, you shut up." Luke sassed back.

Michael took another large sip of his beer.

"Are you staying?"

"I would but I have to be somewhere at eight and I don't want to wake you."

"It's fine. I don't want you driving back it's late."

Luke laughed. "Again, amazing."

★★★

Babes I love you but I'd love you more if you'd actually answer the questions I give you.
