You+Me= Us (Cake Au)

Home Is Just A Room Full Of My Safest Sounds

At the end of the school day, I walked out to see Luke already waiting for me at the bench we always meet at.

As I walked up to him, he smiled from ear to ear and engulfed me in a tight hug like he always does. I flinched at the sudden contact considering my bruises still hurt from a couple hours ago.

"What's wrong Calum?" he asked in a concerned tone.

"Oh, nothing. You just caught me off guard," I said and shrugged it off.

"Are you sure?" he asked.

"Yeah​, of course im fine. Why wouldn't I be?" I said in a chirpy tone hoping he would change the subject.

"Alright... Well you want me to drop you off at home now?"

I thought for a minute and decided that I didn't Want to face what was coming for me at home. So in the most casual tone I said, "Actually, can I go to your house for a bit, maybe spend the night there?"

Luke looked a little bit taken aback, "You already spent the night yesterday and the day befo- actually, you spent the whole week at my house. Aren't your parents worried?" he asked.

As I thought about what he said, I muttered under my breath, "Why the hell would they care?"

"What was that?" Luke asked confusedly.

"Oh nothing, just that they don't mind much that I stay at your house..." I paused for a bit, "unless you mind."

Luke immediately responded, "Nononono, I don't mind at all. I actually like spending time with you." As luke said that, he rubbed the back of his neck shyly and a small blush coated his cheeks.

He avoided looking at me, and he looked shy for some reason, but I shrugged it off.

Just as I was about to turn around, Luke said, "Wait, there's something on your face." With that he lifted his thumb to brush off something on my lip.

Now it was my turn to blush but, I turned away.

"Awwww, is my little kiwi blushing?"

I blushed even harder if that was even possible. "All that's left for you to do is kiss me," I said in a joking manner.

Just as I finished that sentence, I turned around to see luke closing in for a kiss with duck lips. I pushed him aside and laughed. "You are such and idiot, Luke."

He just laughed and said, "But I'm your idiot." I just smiled and walked to the car.

We got into Luke's car and Green Day was on the radio (tehe i know💖). "I love this song," I said happily as 'Wake Me Up When September Ends' played.

"I do too, it reminds me of home," Luke said with a sad look in his eyes. Then there was a small silence when out of no where luke said, "Hey Calum, remember when my dad took us to the arcade and he won the camera I always wanted, because I couldn't win it?"

Oh yeah​, the camera that Luke's dad bought for him. He still has it on his shelf. He never uses it though. The only picture he has ever taken with that camera was of him and his dad 3 years ago.

We sat in the car until the song was over. I turned to look at Luke and saw that he was teary eyed. "I miss him too," I said. Luke's dad was like a father to me.

After a while of sitting in the car, we drove straight to Luke's house. I didn't need to stop by my house to get clothes considering I had spent the whole week at Luke's house, so I already had enough clothes there.

When we got to Luke's house, it was empty. "Where the hell is my mom?" Luke asked as well walked to the kitchen for a snack.

As we opened the cabinet, I noticed a note on the fridge. "Hey Luke, your mom left a note."

He walked over and read the note out loud:

"Taking the nightshift, wont be home until 12, left money in the drawer. Oh, and say hi to dear Calum for me.
~Love Mom."

Luke laughed and pointed at the note. "My mom already knew you were coming over." I smiled.

"She can tell into the future!" I faked a gasp and covered my mouth. Luke smiled and threw an apple toward me but I caught it just in time.

As we finished our snack, we went upstairs to listen to music. Our music is a variety of bands from Nirvana to Blink-182. We listened to music all after noon and just talked about the most random things from food to socks.

Then while we were talking, a serious topic came up.

"Calum..."

"Yeah?"

"What if one of us had a crush on the other."

I was was caught off guard by the sudden question. "I don't know, why do you ask? Do you think I like you or something?"

"No no," he said quickly. "I was just-"

"'Cause I don't like you, if that's what you were wondering," I said.

Luke stayed quiet for a while.

"O-oh, okay. Well, um, yeah​. That's exactly what I was wondering. Just wanted to know." Luke looked lost in thought.

"What made you think that?" I asked in a curious tone.

"Well, you are gay, and I'm pretty hot," he said with a smirk. "Are you sure you wouldn't go for me?"

I looked at him in playful disbelief and said, "Just because im gay, doesn't mean I'll go for everything with a dick and a living pulse."

"I didn't say that," Luke said with a smirk.

"Whatever," I said and pushed him aside.

This was going to be a long day.
