Liz Hemmings scolds her 17 year old son for getting his first piercing.

"A lip ring?! Really, Luke?!" Luke shamelessly nods. Liz shakes her head in disappointment. "Luke Robert Hemmings, what are we going to do with you? First you drop out of school, get tattoos sell over your body, oh, what next?! Joining a band of thugs or outlaws?!"

Close. One day, Luke was walking around, doing chores for his mother for it was the weekend and he needed something to do. He then bumped into a boy his age at the market. He had reverse skunk hair, but the part that was supposed to be white, was lilac. He had tattoos masking the bare skin on his body. He also had quite a few piercings.

"Sorry," Luke muttered, since his mother taught him manners. (A/N:OMG 18 CAME ON XD) The boy frowned, obviously disgusted to be in Luke's presence.

"Whatever," the boy then looked at Luke's lip ring and smirked a little. "Nice piercing, bro. The name's Michael."

"Luke," Luke held out his hand while Michael stared at it for a few seconds before spitting in his own hand. Michael took his hand that was freshly covered in saliva and shook hands with Luke. Luke cringed as he felt the spit on his freshly washed hands.

"Nice to meet ya, Luke," another boy came around the corner, a third boy traveling behind him. The second boy was wearing a beanie, had golden highlights, tan skin, looked Asian but Luke could tell by his accent he was at least half Australian and New Zealander. Luke was quite a fan of his cheeks and jawbones and jawline. The third boy had curly brown hair and sweet, kind features. He also had a lip ring like Luke's. He had several tattoos trailing up both arms. He wore a tee-shirt whose sleeves have seemed to be cut off.

"Hey, Mikey," the tan one with golden highlights said. "Who's this b-?"

"I'm Ashton and that's Calum," the one with curly hair interrupted quickly. Luke wiped his spit covered hand on his tight skinny jeans and held out his hand and shook hands with Ashton then Calum. They all had tattoos and piercings. Luke felt a bit bare and underdressed around them. They all exchanged addresses and phone numbers and when Luke suggested to Michael that since Michael was complaining too much about his mustang not working that he should get a different vehicle, Michael claimed it wasn't as "Punk Rock" as his mustang.
