Love You Like a Love Song || Calum Hood

teacher meets students

"So, Luke, how things went with Rice?" Michael asks the guy when they are back at the studio the next day.

Luke starts telling them the story. He admits he likes some drama so Luke decides to stop the narrative telling the guys Rice wasn't gonna happen.

"But what are we gonna do now?" Ashton question the taller blond guy, concerned. No way he's gonna bring up replacing Luke's vocals.

"Turns out I found someone." Luke says, explaining how he found out the new vocal coach and how much he's  excited to work with her.

"She's amazing. Eleanor Williams is her name, and she's so good!" The boys could tell Luke was excited on working with her, and this made them feel happy about it too. If with only one session Luke's confidence and happiness is back, the girl must be good.

The week passes and they work harder than never to the 4th album be the best one they ever made. Luke keeps working on his voice with Eleanor and everybody could tell his Easier performance has increased. The blue eyed man knows he still needs to improve his performance, however, he's more than happy to see that the classes are helping him.

"This woman must be good" Calum say after they finished the rehearsals of the day. They'll be recording the official version of Easier soon, so they are more than focused on get everything as good as possible before the big day comes. Especially Luke.

"About that, Eleanor and I have been discussing about something and she think we should do some team classes, and I second that" Luke says casually playing with the strings of his guitar.

"Why though?" Mike questions him. All attention are on Luke right now.

"When I showed Eleanor the demo she was very interested on the backing vocals." Luke starts saying but it's interrupted by Ashton, teasing him like they're back to high school."Hey Cal! Teacher likes your vocals!"

Calum gives a little shy smile while his cheeks turns red, rolling his eyes at Ashton. He doesn't know what to do when people compliment him by surprise, and being teased by it isn't helping at all.

"Yeah, she really liked it. That's why she thought it should be good if we all take some classes with her to work on our voices, you know, we have a lot of harmonization going on." Luke says, finishing his point.

"Which are already good" Mike brags about it. For sure he's not trying to be an ass or anything like that, even though sometimes looks like it.

"But could be better" Calum quickly says back at him, with a 'shut the fuck up' look in his eyes. They don't want to be asshole about the fact Luke needed to take classes and they don't. Hopefully, Luke hasn't noticed that Michael apologized to Calum, knowing exactly why his band mate was talking to him like that.

"What do you think?" Luke says, ignoring both of the guys and looking mainly to Ash.

"I'd love to" The red haired guy says, followed by the positive answers of the other boys.

Felling happy about it, Luke makes sure to talk to Eleanor as soon as possible to set everything up for next Wednesday afternoon, and after the task is done, they get back to work.

Calum pov

The first thing I notice about the place, after the big pink neon sign, is that the place looks like is part of an 80's movie, and I honestly like it a lot. It's completely different of what I was picturing on my mind.

Eleanor was on her room, finishing up with the previous client, so all four of us had to wait in the small common room. Michael, Ashton and Luke was discussing something about the best ice cream flavor but I wasn't in the mood for making my point on it, so I just keep myself entertained with the place's colors.
