"Mum?" Luke walked into the living room, knowing he and Liz were alone in the house.
"Yes, baby?" He could see she was grading tests but when she saw him smile and come over to sit next to her she put them away.
"I want to talk to you about something."
"Is everything okay?"
She sounded worried. Luke was a teenager and recently there wasn't a lot he wanted to talk to her about. Not that he didn't, she just wasn't the first person he'd turn to if he had any problems at the moment.
Luke smiled. "It's great actually."
She visibly relaxed. "That's good."
"I..." Luke started but stopped. He was so happy he forgot he was supposed to be nervous. But he wasn't. "I have a boyfriend."
He couldn't hide his grin or the tears when he saw his mum was happy as well. Liz never nagged her youngest son about a girlfriend but he was sixteen and didn't even mention liking anybody so she was a bit worried. That probably had to do with the fact she worked on the same school Luke went to and she knew most of the students.
"That's lovely, Luke. I'm so happy for you." She grabbed her son's hand and pulled him into a hug.
It took her longer than Luke expected to ask. "Is it anyone I know?"
The blue-eyed boy nodded. "It's Michael."
"Really?" She seemed surprised. "I thought you two didn't like each other."
That made Luke giggle as it was everyone's reaction to the news. "We were just a bit confused... I mean technically it was my fault but all is forgiven."
"How so?"
"We played spin the bottle on Calum's birthday three years ago and you had to say either you think the person it landed on is cute or not. When it was my turn it landed on Michael and I said no and my explanation was because he's a boy."
"Lukey..."
"I know." Luke blushed. "Then we kind of just didn't talk for a few years. And this year for Calum's party we played the same game and on his turn, the bottle landed on me."
"What did he say?" Liz was all ears.
"He said yes and that I'm beautiful." Luke blushed, even more, when his mum awed. "I messaged him the next day and apologized. I also told him I said that because I was in the closet and that I think he's very attractive. We went on our first date that week."
"That's lovely Luke. I'm really happy for you." They hugged again and Luke was ready to leave. A massive rock fell from his chest. "You should invite him to dinner sometime when you'll be ready to tell your dad and brothers about him."
"They already know."
"I see. It was a secret then?"
Luke shook his head. "Jack knows because he saw us together, I told Ben yesterday and dad saw us kissing." His cheeks were burning red.
"I'm impressed because your dad isn't the best at keeping secrets from me. Just tell me one more thing, does Michael's mum know?"
Luke nodded. "She saw us together too. We're not that good at hiding."
"You shouldn't hide at all."
When Luke returned to his room, he wasn't sure if he should cry or scream from happiness. His mood picked up even more when Michael called him a few minutes later.
"What did your mum say?"
"H-how.. How do you know I told my mum?" He wasn't mad, just surprised.
Michael laughed. "Our mums are in the same book club. Your mum already called mine and they're gossiping right now."
Luke laid down on his bed with the biggest smile on his lips. "She was really happy, Mikey."
"She should be, her son is dating the hottest guy in town."
Luke bit his lip. "That's true." After Michael didn't say anything back Luke felt like he had something to say.
"You really are beautiful and hot and cute to me, Michael. Never doubt or forget that."
