Spaces Between Us | A.I.

40.

- POV Luke -

"So, who do you like?" Ashton asks me while waking up to me. I turn bright red.
"What do you mean?" I ask him with a small frown.
"I saw the conversation between you and Lili. Well some of it. About you liking a boy."
"Oh..," I look down and bite my lip awkwardly.
He lays his hand in my shoulder and smiles weakly, "Hey, it's okay. Do you want to tell me?"

I shake my head, "I rather not... It's not that I don't trust you but... You know?"
He node, "yeah. It's fine. I hope it'll become something. If it doesn't that boy is just dumb."
I chuckle, "If you say so, Ash."

"Hey guys," Calum says while walking in. A second later Lili and Michael walk in.
"Hey," I say and smile. Ashton just waves.
"What's going on here?" Michael asks.
"We were just talking. Nothing special," I say and I shrug my shoulders.

"Where were you guys talking about?" Calum asks.
"Nothing special. I asked him about something I always wanted to know," Ashton says.
I look at him with a raised eyebrow, "Oh, did you?"
"Yes. That question was just so important for me and I would have died if I didn't know the answer."
I laugh.

"What question? I really want to know now," Lili says and she laughs.
"I asked him..." Ashton pauses and my heart starts to race. Is he going to talk about me liking a guy? "What shoe size he had."
"Wow Ash... Just wow," Lili laughs.
"Well I hope you're happy now you know the answer. Now you can buy me shoes."
"Yeah I'm not going to do that."

"Let's go out and grab dinner together," Michael says.
"I'm down," I say with a smile.
"Me too," Lili says.
The others agree too and so we get ready to go.

Somehow we ended up at Macdonald. The security doesn't know we went here so I just text one of them that we're here so they don't freak out when they don't know where we are. I only have one security guards number because sometimes you need to call them.
Ashton and Lili are ordering food and Michael is stuck on his phone. I am sitting next to Calum and I look outside of the window.

"Wow Michael, you're so social," Calum says.
I look at Michael and he looks up from his phone, "Of course I am. What do you expect?" After that he focuses on his phone again.
Calum look at me and sighs softly.
"What?" I ask.
He shakes his head, "nothing."
I frown, "You can just tell me. You know you can tell me everything, Cal."
"I know. I'm just struggling with myself at the moment."
I nod, "If you need someone to talk to. I'm here." I smile and lay my hand on his shoulder while squeezing it a little.
"Thanks, Luke," He says with a small smile.
