Luke Hemmings achieves greatly academically but is very unpopular because of his intelligence, shyness, and the fact that he's well, gay.
Michael Clifford rules the school. Has girls falling down at his feet. He isn't very intelligent, but he has never dated either.
This gives Luke hope that maybe, because he has never dated, he may be gay. Luke has had a crush on Michael for a couple of years.
Michael's best friends, Calum and Ashton, decide to mess with him because they know that Luke likes Michael. They bet money on the fact that Michael couldn't get Luke to date him. Michael finds this hilarious, and takes the bet. He has the time span of a month. During that month, he has to ask out Luke and if he says yes; then he wins.
What Michael never realised, is that somewhere deep inside; he was falling for him.
"God, Evelyn!" Luke ran a hand through his hair frustratedly, practically shouting, "I don't hate you. I'm in love with you!"
She got up to leave, "I-I need to go."
Evelyn started to turn the door handle when she felt a force push the door shut. His hands pressed against the wall next to her head.
She turned around, pressing her hands to her sides. He tilted his head, leaning in. She found herself reaching up to fist his shirt.
They stared at each other for what seemed like forever, his eyes flicking to her lips. The pressure around them was building, as if it was just them in the entire universe.
"Kiss me," Luke whispered.
"I can't."
