"Make it easy on me." Luke said. "Tell me why I shouldn't walk over there and punch you in the face right now?" Luke asked.

"Because we're here to stop you." Ashton reminded him. I sighed and tried not to roll my eyes. I was currently sitting on the opposite end of the room from Luke in a chair at a desk. Luke was on the couch and Michael and Ashton were both standing just to our right and left, ready to intervene if one of us decided to get ballsy. But I had promised Kira I wouldn't fight back if Luke tried to hit me. I was hoping to keep my word. I was hoping Luke wouldn't try to jump me or something. 

"I'm not hearing any apologizing mate. So start talking." Luke demanded, glaring at me. I glanced over at Ashton.

"Shouldn't someone throw a yellow flag?" I asked. "I don't have to apologize because I'm not sorry. I love Kira, always have."

"So you fuck her behind my back!" Luke snapped, standing up. Michael moved closer, ready to stop him from getting any closer to me. "You're supposed to be my best friend! We share a fucking apartment together Calum! Did you fantasize about fucking her there too, behind my back?" Damn... He knows me well. I took a deep breath.

"Calm down Luke, okay. It was... Insensitive of me to bring that up yesterday but you were pissing me off. You weren't letting Kira talk. You wouldn't let us explain anything. You just ran away." 

"And you're still not fucking explaining anything. What happened Calum? I've heard Kira's side but I want yours. What happened?" My eyes fell down towards the table, loosing focus.

"I... I don't know what happened. One day we're on the tour bus and I'm thinking about how I am never going to be with Kira in the way that I want to and then the next day... She's telling me she has feelings for me." Luke is glaring at me, still looking pissed off.

"How long have you been in love with her?" He demanded. I shrugged.

"Probably since we were kids Luke. I don't know. I just looked at her one day and realized I wanted to be with her but neither of us liked the idea of one another growing up and in Year 5 when we met you, you were the only fucking thing she could talk about and I hated it."

"You could've still asked her out, in high school." Luke pointed out. "She told me once that you were actually kind of hot." I leaned back in my seat, surprised.

"What? No she didn't." Luke shrugged.

"She did. I always thought you two were a thing and just didn't want to admit it. That's why I was so surprised when she said yes when I asked her out."

"When... How old were we?" Luke sighed and sat down.

"It was before she went blonde. We were at some party and you were like dancing up against some girl and Kira was tipsy."

"Why do you remember that night?" I asked. Luke shrugged. 

"I don't know. I was a little jealous maybe. I liked Kira a little back then but I thought you were her type." I scoffed.

"You didn't like Kira back then. You never told me that."

"Because I knew if I did you would turn around and tell her and that's super fucking embarrassing." Luke said with a scowl. "You two were fucking thick as thieves so I didn't say shit. I only asked her out when she went blonde because..." He stopped. "Because I knew if I didn't, someone else would and I couldn't stand the idea of it." I huffed.

"Well at least you saved her from going out with Toby."

"God." Luke groaned. "Fuck Toby." He said with a laugh. "I still think about that look on his face when you punched him for asking about Kira's tits." I burst out laughing. 

"He was a fucking asshole! He was one of those fuckers that always teased her as a kid and now that she was showing a bit of skin he wanted to fuck her? Fuck that dude."

"Yeah, Fuck Toby." I could see Ashton and Michael smiling at us out of the corners of my eyes. I huffed. 

"Look Luke, we are friends. I still consider you one of my best friends but I understand if you don't. I'm sorry for the shit I said but... I'm not sorry for what happened between Kira and I." Luke scoffed and rolled his eyes. 

"Why did you have to fuck her though? Why couldn't you wait until we had broken up or something?" Luke demanded.

"I'm not going to fucking sugarcoat it for you, okay? But she begged me to fuck her." I said throwing my hands up in the air a little and slumping down into my seat. "I tried to say no but... I didn't try as hard as I should have... Probably." Luke snorted.

"Yeah I'm pretty sure you'll stick your dick in any pretty girl if they asked you too."

"Hey fuck you man." I said but Luke was half smirking so I knew he was joking around at least a little bit. He dropped his gaze and clenched his jaw.

"I... I really fucking hate you Calum. I didn't think that was possible. You're my best friend. You used to punch bullies in the face for me. We have a fucking apartment together." He shook his head and looked back up at me. "But I don't know how to look at you and not see that stupid ass smug smirk on your face when you told me that you and Kira were fucking." I sighed. 

"Yeah... Dick move honestly." Luke snorted. "I'll move out when we get back to Australia." I said with a sigh.

"We could switch roommates." Ashton offered to Luke.

"Hey!" Michael shouted at the same time as Luke said,

"God no." Michael frowned at Luke as I tried not to laugh. Luke looked back over at me.

"Look, I'm not saying we can't be friends anymore this... This band is important to me and so is our friendship. We're just going to have to.. Work on it or something." Luke said slowly. 

"Seriously?" 

"Yeah, now shake my hand before I change my fucking mind." Luke said, standing. I half smiled and stood at the same time Luke did. Reaching over, Luke and I shook hands. "If you hurt Kira though I won't hesitate to kill you." 

"Thanks mate." I said with a smile. Luke smiled back and we let go of one another just as Michael rushed in and shouted,

"Group hug!" Before nearly tackling Luke and I to the floor. Ashton had to step in and prevent us from falling, the four of us laughing loudly.
