Anxious Boy

"Shit, I got to go to the studio again today." Luke blurts out and sighs.

"That's ok." He nods, gets ready and leaves. 

"What to do." I wonder aloud and go on social media.

"Hot." Some girls are commenting on Luke's post about me.

"Yay, he's gay." Garrett Watts comments and my breath hitches, so I like the comment.

"Look in your dms." Inform him and message him.

"Hate to sound like a total fan, but I love your videos and most of all you." Message him and he responds right away.

"Aw, you're so sweet and cute. So very handsome." We trade numbers and start texting each other. Of course it's just endless flirting.

"I'm home!" Luke says and we hug. We have a quick dinner since he's tired and has to go do interviews tomorrow and it's gonna be live. In the morning, he quickly showers, gets ready, eats and leaves. Before he leaves, we hug and wave at each other. Watch him drive away and turn on the channel they're gonna be on as Garrett and I decide to Facetime while it happens. The first interview starts as they sit on a couch and converse with a male interviewer.

"So, mind explaining the whole Leo thing." Is basically the first thing he says getting right into it.

"Depends on what exactly you want to know." Luke responds trying not to be super protective. 

"Luke, he lives with you. How do you feel about him being gay?" All the boys are shocked and surprised.

"I am accepting and forever will be accepting of him no matter what. Are you hinting that being gay is wrong or something?" Luke is starting to get mad, but holds back his anger.

"You don't mind living with him?" He asks as Luke sighs.

"He's an amazing roommate. Are you trying to tell me to kick him out and put him on the streets like he was? Cause if that's what you're saying, it's not gonna happen at all." He's getting defensive and starting to fume. Cal places his hand on Luke's knee to try and keep him calm.

"Well you just met him." The interviewer is starting to be even more rude. Garrett and I are in total shock.

"Yes and he was in need of some money, we have him that. He wasn't having any luck because he couldn't afford an apartment and no one would hire him because he was dirty." Luke wants to yell and walk away, but he has to go through this.

"His eyes are a gross green." Luke laughs at him.

"Dude, his eyes are a mixture of green and blue. They're so damn pretty, I could just swim in his eyes." Luke says smiling.

"Why does he always wear your clothes?" They ask the most stupidest and hurtful questions.

"Cause we're the same size and don't really have time to go shopping." He calmly replies.

"Also, Leo looks really handsome in Luke's clothing." Ash smirks at them.

"But-" They start to say, but Cal speaks up as Mikey remains silent.

"Oh, looks like your time is up. You should've asked less hurtful questions and something more useful." Cal says as they slowly walk away. I could tell Luke was thinking about my scars and he stared at the camera knowing that I'm watching at this very exact moment.
