Chapter One

It was just a long, arid, day at school for Ashton Irwin. Yep, just the usual getting bullied by Juan.

"You worthless fag!" Juan yelled as he slammed Ashton against the lockers. Ashton just looked at Juan teary-eyed and said nothing. Ashton was tired of being bullied because he was gay and that he was only sixteen. "Well, aren't you gonna say anything?!" Shouted Juan. Ashton tried to talk but nothing came out he was too scared to talk in fear Juan would hit him. Juan raised a hand to strike Ashton across the face but a teacher walked up. "Juan," Growled the teacher. "Leave him alone, three hours of detention for you, young man." Juan rolled his eyes and walked off, probably going to bully some other defenseless kid.

"Oh Ashton, are you alright?" Said the Teacher with sympathy and pity in her voice. "Yes, I'm alright Mrs. Joni." Ashton mumbled. What is she gonna do about it? Pretend she cares? Thought Ashton. Ashton personally didn't care what others thought about him. Or did he? When it came to Juan he did think some things over. Am I a whore? Is it really that bad being a twink? Ashton usually ran to the bathroom after he got bullied. Which gave Juan satisfaction because he knew he got to Ashton. Juan usually watched Ashton when he had panic attacks just so he could laugh.

Ashton had no friends what so ever, he lived with his mum and his little brother. So when it was lunch time Ashton always sat alone. Ashton was just a loner. He wanted friends but It was so hard to fit in. First of all, he was like the only twink, and he got made fun of because of it. Sissy! Gay! Just things like that. Ashton always wore bracelets to cover up his scars. He didn't even know why he hadn't committed long ago.

"Hey faggot!" Juan shouts at Ashton from across the hall. "You got me in detention, you gay wad!" Ashton quickly walked to the cafeteria which was empty. The football team would be in here any minute to eat lunch, so maybe Juan wouldn't kick his ass. Juan quickly walked in the cafeteria and grabbed Ashton by the collar of his shirt; lifting him up off the ground. "Mother fucker, you're going to pay for all this detention you've given me!" Juan growls with anger filling his voice. Just then there is a series of voices and they are all male, they are getting closer. Just as Juan raises a hand to punch Ashton the captain of the football team shouts. "Hey, put him down now!" Juan brushes him off and goes back to Ashton. "P-please put me d-down." Ashton stutters.  "Whatcha gonna do, Luke?" Juan mocks the captain of the football team; Luke. "Put him down or else." Luke yells. A series of "ohhs!" come from the rest of the football players. Luke them walks up to Juan. "Ohh, I'm so scared!" Juan says in a voice much like a 2 year old. Luke growls and strikes Juan in the face, Ashton breaks free from Juan, then takes a quick glance at his "hero". Oh fuck. He's tall, handsome, gorgeous, sexy, and nice. Ashton thinks to himself and quickly snaps out his trance as he sees Luke being pinned down on the floor as Juan pulls down his pants, attempting to teabag Luke. Just before Ashton can even think about what he's doing he punches Juan so hard he passes out.

"Holy, shit!" Yells Luke. "Did you just do that?!" Ashton smiles proudly like an idiot. Juan is out cold on the floor with his pants down. "Yep" Ashton says. "Wow, I didn't know a twink, could be so violent, what's your name?" Gawks Luke. "I-I'm Ashton, and you must b-be Luke, r-right?" Ashton shyly says. Luke extends his hand to Ashton so he could so Ashton could shake it. Ashton never really liked touching people, simply because of germs. He could make an exception though because Luke was hot and that made up for what he probably lacked in cleanliness. "Ashton," Luke says. "I should really make this up to you, because you saved me from getting balls in my mouth." Ashton really liked Luke and yes he did want to go to lunch with him, but he didn't want to make a bad impression; to be known as the greedy shit little twink. "Um, you really don't have to, I mean unless of course you r-really want to." Ashton mumbles, secretly hoping they would go to lunch. "Yes, yes I want to." Luke coos. Ashton finally gives in and they end up getting pizza together and watching a movie.

Ashton skips in the house, happier than a dog who's just got a bone. "Hey mum!" He excitedly says and runs upstairs to his room. Ashton wondered if he could somehow date Luke somehow.
