    Summary

    “I’ve always wanted to be in a band,” Luke admitted after a beat, looking down at his maths homework and smoothing out the edges of his paper. Michael was playing semi-viciously, jabbing at the keys. “No one’s ever wanted to, though.”
    “Being in a band would be awesome,” Calum said, stretching. “Mikey and I both play guitar.”
    “Me too,” Luke admitted. “Think you knew that, though.” Michael finally closed his game, looking up and offering Luke the first genuine smile Luke had seen from him so far.
    “Cal and I talked about bands, but you can’t do much with two people.”
    “We should be a band,” Calum said definitively. “This is a thing. We’re a band now.”
    Luke’s smile was bigger now. “We’re a band now,” he echoed. When he returned to his maths homework, he was outright beaming.

     

    Or, the story of how 5 Seconds of Summer became a band (starting from the beginning) and how Michael Clifford realized he’d always been in love with Calum Hood (not starting from the beginning, not even close), and how taking on the world turned out to be less daunting than it seemed.
