( okay i couldnt do it, i cant make arz mean, i cANT, so im sorry dont hate me )

Jaylan's point of view

"Así así." I smiled as Luke asked how my day was in Spanish. It wasn't pronunciated very well, but he still tried and that made me happy. "I tripped and scratched my arm, but I also had a good day."

"I'm learning Spanish for you, just so I'll know if you curse me out. Like, right now, you can call me a fucking donkey and I wouldn't know." He joked and I laughed.

"No, I wouldn't do that to you or Brian." I promised and he nodded as I walked into the kitchen. "Can I have an apple?"

"You don't need to ask, go ahead. Mí casa es tú casa. My house is your house, you really don't need to ask." He nodded and I grabbed one from the fridge, immediately washing it off before taking a bite. "Something is different about you."

"¿Qué?" I asked and looked down at myself. "Is it my face? I took off my makeup before I came down here." I reminded and he shook his head.

"No, it's not that." He said and I leaned against the counter. "Huh, I can't tell. But something is off..."

I wiped my hands on my band shirt and he snapped his fingers as he pointed. "Your boobs are gone." He pointed out and I choked on my apple. "Holy shit, no, don't die-"

I heard him stand up and I also heard the tap run before he handed me a glass of water. I took a drink and then hit my chest before looking at him as I got the food down. "You good? You're not dying?" He asked and I nodded.

"Yeah. Yeah I'm fine. I'm not dying. Damn, it's just... you're really blunt about things." I told him and he shrugged. "I'm wearing a binder..."

"It's a good thing I have genderfluid friends, if not, I'd be asking you what the hell that was." He chuckled and I felt a weight lifted off my shoulders.

"So you-you don't mind that I am genderfluid too? You done think it's weird or abnormal?" I asked and he shook his head.

"Of course not. Be a boy, be a girl, be both, or be neither, just don't be a dick." He told me and I widened my eyes.

"Can you like... write that down so I can tattoo it across my forehead? Like in all caps, maybe underline it too. Please?" I asked and he laughed loudly.

"Gladly." He nodded and opened a drawer full of miscellaneous objects. He pulled a sticky note out and then a sharpie, writing it down before handing it to me.

I put it on my forehead and he laughed. "This quote is my religion, my sexuality, my first language, my everything. This quote is me."

"I copyrighted it already."

"Fuck, I wanted it." I told him and we both laughed. "When will Brian be home?"

"Maybe round' eight." He told me and I nodded. "I invited my band over, if that's alright with you."

"It's you're house, Luke. It's fine." I assured and he nodded as I looked down at my clothes. "Should I change?"

"If you want. It's just my band. If they don't like your clothes, I'll just ban them from coming over." He shrugged and I laughed as I heard paws against the tiled floor. "Tunia!"

"I'll change. I'm not supposed to wear a binder too long anyways." I reminded and he nodded as I took my apple upstairs. I took another bite and then set it down on my desk.

-

"I got it!" I yelled as I herd the doorbell rang. I tossed the core cored my apple into the trash and Petunia barked as she ran around. I sneezed a few times and then rubbed my nose sith my sweater before walking towards the door.

I unlocked it, and instead of coming face to face with three boys, it was a pretty girl with black hair and black rectangular glasses. We nearly wore the same thing, black leggings and an oversized sweater. As if we couldn't get anymore similiar, she even looked just as confused as I was.

"I thought Luke was dating Brian?" She asked and looked inside. "Tunia?" She asked as Petunia barked and wagged her tail quickly.

"Luke!" I yelled, not inviting the girl in but also not telling her she couldn't come in. "There's a girl here!"

"Don't talk about Ashton that way." He teased me and I laughed with the girl across from me. "Does she have purple hair? Cause she can come in."

"No."

"Blonde?"

"Nope."

He hesitated, and I knew he had probably guessed. "Black?" He asked, a tone in his voice showing that he was praying it wasn't whoever he was thinking about.

"Yeah."

I immediately heard his boots against the floor and he opened the door wider to see who it was. I turned away and sneezed a few times into my sweater, walking away as Petunia circled the couple. "Shit." I mumbled and Luke chuckled.

"I'll take Petunia to her room." Luke offered as I couldn't help but keep sneezing. "Come in, I guess." He told the girl as he carried Petunia.

The girl walked in, shutting the door behind her as I rubbed my nose. "Are you allergic to her?" She asked and I nodded.

"Yeah, it's bareable though. Luke said he'll buy me medication for it, and I'm looking forward to it since it's not fair for him to lock her up in a room like that." I told her and sniffled.

"Are you his new girlfriend?"

"Who? Me? No, I'm fifteen. Quince." I laughed and her eyes widened. "Luke has a boyfriend, un novio. His name is Brian."

"Oh..." She trailed off as I bit my lipring. "Sorry. I just didn't expect anyone other than Brian or Luke to open the door."

"I didn't think pretty girls talked to either of them, so I guess we we're both shocked." I accidentally said, blushing immediately after. "I'm so sorry, it's just, I'm nervous and I can't control what I say when I'm nervous and-"

"I'm Arzaylea." She cut me off and I almost dropped my jaw. This was the girl he was arguing with on the phone? This is his ex?

Who knew Luke could get such good looking girls to be into him?

"I'm-"

"That's Jaylan, but it doesn't matter cause you're leaving." Luke cut me off as he walked over. "You know where the door is."

"I just wanted to see Petunia." Arz told him but Luke shook his head. "Please? We got her together, Luke. Come on."

The doorbell rang, and I could already hear laughing from the other side. "Dude shut up, she will literally roast you in Spanish." I heard Ashton say and I walked up to the door.

"Luke, just five minutes. I wanna see Tunia. It's been two weeks." Arz begged him and I unlocked the door.

"Ashton's scared of a fif-holy shit, a fifteen year old opened the door." I heard Michael say and there was a girl beside him with purple hair.

"Hola," I smiled and Ashton waved at me. "Por favor entré. ¿Cómo están ustedes?"

"Jaylan..." Luke groaned and I smiled apologetically as his friends walked in. "They don't-"

"Bien, ¿y tú?" The girl with purple smiled and held a hand out. "Yo soy Crystal"

"Bien, gracias. Yo soy Jaylan." I smiled back and shook her hand. "Nice to meet you."

"You too." She said and the band looked between us.

"Dude..." Michael said and Crystal hummed. "Since when?" He asked her.

"Highschool. I only remember a little though." She laughed and he nodded. "Is this the girl you said would roast us in Spanish, Ash?"

"Yes." Ashton nodded and I rolled my eyes as I closed the door. I looked at Luke and he just shook his head.

"She has me learning Spanish so I don't get called an asshole in a different language." He told them and I laughed.

"I won't call you any names in Spanish, I swear." I told him and I heard someone's phone ring. "Not me."

"Not us." Ashton said and Luke looked around at Tunia's.room. "Is Brian here? Yo, Dales!" He called and Luke stopped him.

"No, it's not Brian. Brian's out with his band." Luke said and I sat down on the couch. "Arzaylea is here."

"Dude, why?" Michael asked and I felt kind of bad for her. "She ch-"

"She wants to see Petunia." Luke told them and I stood up. "She's with Tunia. She'd be out here but Jaylan is allergic to dogs."

"The irony." Michael laughed and I nodded as Calum sat down on the couch aswell. He hasn't said a word, but I didn't mind. Maybe he was just shy?

"I'm gonna get something to drink." I told them and they nodded as I stood up. Instead of heading to the kitchen, I went to Petunia's room, opening the door quietly.

"Hey?" I smiled softly and I saw Arzaylea sitting cross legged on the floor with Petunia in her lap.

"Hi." She said and I sneezed into my sweater. "If you're allergic to Petunia, you shouldn't be in here."

"Want anything to drink? Water? Soda? I think there's also fruit punch." I told her and she shook her head.

"No, it's okay. I'm leaving soon anyways. Luke said I can't stay long." She told me and grabbed Petunia's face. "I'll miss you, lil piggy. I love you, you know I do."

"Does Luke not let you see her?"

"No he does, not often, but he does." She nodded and then stood up. "Bye baby, mommy will miss you. I'll be back sometime hopefully. No no no, don't whine, it's okay. I'll be back."

"You sure you don't wanna just stay longer? Luke's aith his band and Crystal, I doubt he'd care if you stayed a little longer to hang out with her." I told her as I sneezed again. "Fuck, I gotta get outta' here."

"Come on," she said and led me out of the room. Petunia ran out and she gasped. "Tunia! No, Luke said you gotta stay in there-"

"It's fine. Calm down." I told her and Luke asked what Petunia was doing out of her room. "Perdón. I wanted to see if Petunia needed more water in her bowl." I called but I didn't think he could hear me.

Arzaylea looked at me, seeming surprised that I took the hit for her, and and I ran to the living room. "Sorry Luke. I just wanted to see if she needed anything to drink. Arz is in the bathroom."

"It's fine." He said as he pet the dog who crawled on his lap. "Do you want me to put her back in her room?'

I turned my head away as I sneezed, and then shook my head. "No, no it's fine. Let her stay out here. I have homework anyways." I told him and he pouted.

"You don't want to stay and kick it down here with us?" He asked and I thought about it.

"I'd love to, but I really have to do my homework. I'll come down when I'm finished, fair enough?"

"Yeah, that's fair." He nodded and chuckled. "Go finish that math and shit. All the bad things in life."

I nodded and then went upstairs to my room. Before I could close the door, I saw Arz coming up the stairs. "Hey, I uh, you didn't need to do that for me. He hates me enough as is, a little slip up doesn't matter at this point." She told me and I shook my head.

"You seem nice, and Luke gave you enough shit today for just wanting to see Tunia." I shrugged. "Don't mention it."

"I just feel bad for you because I'm not a good person and you shouldn't be doing nice things for me." She told me and I thought about what I was supposed to say next. What do you even say? I couldn't tell her exactly why I was being nice even if I wanted to, I didn't even know myself.

"You have history with him, not me. As of now, you're just a girl who wants to see her dog." I told her and she nodded. "I don't have much of a say here, his house and his rules, but if you wanna see Tunia, you can text me and I can try to get Luke in a good mood so he isn't so... snappy at you."

"You don't have to." She laughed lightly. "It's fine. I fucked up, I gotta live with the consequences."

"Forgive and forget?"

"Not with what I did."

"Anyways, really, you seem nice, and if you wanna see Petunia, text me." I told her and held my phone up. "Want my number?"

She hesitated, and then nodded. She looked around and then pulled her phone out. We exchanged numbers and then I put my phone in the pocket of my sweater. "Thank you."

"Don't mention it." I assured her and she made her way downstairs. I bit my lipring and then side as I leaned against my door frame.

What the actual fuck did I just do? What did I just get myself into?

You fucking idiot.

Question of the Chapter:
- What are you favourite 5sos fanfictions?

Author's Answer:
- I freaking love the stories Skinny (a Calum fic where he has an anorexia/bullimia disorder), Rags Meet Riches (a lashton fic where Ashton is rich and Luke is a punk), and Alive (a muke fic where Luke creates a sculpture of his perfect partner, and that sculpture is Michael). There's more but those are my top 3 currently.
