The Bullies and The Drummer(Lashton & Malum)

Chapter 21

* Ashton's P.O.V *

After we were done me and Luke walked down stairs. I was still in his shirt because it was really warm and I was cold. I'm not kidding though I'm keeping this shirt.

I felt his arms slide around my waist as I got lifted up off the ground causing me to squeak. He spun me around and I held onto his arms tightly afraid of falling. He then set me down as I giggled and looked back at him.

He nuzzled his face into my neck and I kissed his head. "You hungry Ashy?" He asked laying his chin on my shoulder looking at me. I nodded and rubbed his hands lightly. "Yeah you?" He nodded and let me go as we walked into the kitchen.

"Lukey? Do you want me to fix breakfast?" I asked.

" Wait can you cook?" He asked.

I nodded and giggled. " What do you want?"

" Um, anything I guess." He said.

I rolled my eyes and started making breakfast. I heard Liz walk in a few minutes into my cooking.

" Ashton! Honey you don't have to cook here let me-" She said but I cut her off.

" Liz it's fine I promise! Go sit down I can do it." I said smiling at her and flipping one of the pancakes over.

" Are you sure Ashton?" She said hesitantly.

I laughed." Yes! Go sit down, now! Or none for you." I said sassy.

She smiled and sat down as I continued fixing the food. Soon it was done and I put it on plates setting them on the table in front of Liz, Luke, and Ben and Jack( Luke's brothers that came down stairs ).

I got me a plate and set down next to Luke. We all started eating and I giggled when Luke's eyes widened slightly as he started eating faster after taking a bite of a pancake.

When we were all done Liz insisted on cleaning up even when I said I would do it.

Now me and Luke are sitting on the couch with a cover over us and me cuddled up to him. He was rubbing my hip as I played with his other hand.

" I love you, you know that?" He said. I looked up at him and smiled.

" Yeah I know and I love you too." I said kissing him lightly.

"I wanna show you something. " he said. I sat up looking at him. He took my hand and pulled me up off the couch and up the stairs to his room. We walked him and he let go of my hand and I sat on the bed.

I watched him grab his lap top and sit next to me he went through a few things on it and then sat it on my lap. "Press play."

I did what he said and pressed play. I watched as his face appeared on the screen.

"Hey Ashton! If your watching this I gave you my lap top and I'm not sitting with you anymore," I looked over and saw he wasn't there or in the room at all." But don't worry its okay! Now pause this and look in the closet for a second." I paused the computer and walked to the closet.

I opened the doors and gasped covering my mouth. There was a rope hanging there and a note taped to it. I ran back over to the computer and pressed play. "Your probably a little confused but when I first started realizing that I liked you you tried to kill yourself. And it was the hardest thing to watch. I tried so hard to keep you alive that day just because you ment so much to me. Ashton I was the one that kept you heart beating that day. I didn't want you to leave. I love you Ash I couldn't let you leave..," I stopped the computer and walked back to the rope and sniffled a little.

I took the note off and read it.

"Dear Ashton,
If you would like to find me
There's just one thing you need to do go to the place where I saved you..."

I chuckled at the rhyming in the note but pulled on some skinny jeans and shoes and I ran down the stairs and all the way to the school. When I walked into the lunch room there was a note laying on a table on the stage I ran to it and saw a rose next to it. I smiled and picked it up sniffing it and looked at the note.

"Dear Ashton,
You found the place I saved you which was the best thing in the world go to the place where we shared our first 'I love you's'

P.s I couldn't find anything to rhyme..."

I laughed and set off to the hospital.

When I got there there were arrows on the floor taking me to the elevator. I pressed the button that had an arrow pointing to it. When the doors opened again I followed the arrows to my old hospital room.

When I walked in there were balloons lined up on the wall that read 'I love you' with another note. I read that note too.

"Dear Ashton,
You remembered our 'I love you's' so it must be special to you.
Go to the place you showed me the real you."

I smiled and ran all the way to my house. Because when I showed them the secret room with the guitars and stuff. I let him read my diary.

I walked into my house and up to the room when I walked in there was a bouquet of flowers and another note on it.

"Dear Ashton,
Your at the place where I learned about you.
Now, I know that this may be stupid but I decided to do this to take up time I'm pretty sure that by the time you read this I should be done,
So come back to my house and get your present :)"

I smiled and put the note in my pocket with the rest and set the items I got from Luke on the table and I walked back to his house. I went inside and climed the stairs then opened his door.

As I did I saw Luke standing in the middle of the room holding a little teddy bear in one hand and a box in the other. I ran into his arms and hugged him. He hugged me back the best he could with what he was holding.

I pulled away and looked up at him. "When did you plan all this?" I asked the smile never leaving my face. He shrugged and handed me the bear. "I have my ways." He said smiling.

I took the bear and held it close to me. He sat on his bed and I sat down next to him. He hesitantly handed me the box and I took it looking at him for a minute.

"What's this?" I asked. "Open it!" He replied. I nodded before lifting the lid of the small rectangular box and gasped at what was inside. I covered my mouth as tears formed at the gold chained necklace. It had a key and a heart that said 'you are always in my heart' on the heart behind it. I looked up at Luke and saw him pull out his necklace and show it to me. It had a heart with a key hole and it said 'you are always in my heart' on the heart behind it also.

"L-Lukey this is beautiful." I said a tear falling down my cheek. He took the necklace and put it around my neck and attached the clip.

"Your beautiful Ashton so I got you this so you will always know that no matter what happens you will always have my heart. Even if I'm not always with you you'll always have something to remind you of me." He said smiling.

I hugged him tightly and closed my eyes. "I love you" I whispered into his ear, afraid that if I talked too loudly it would ruin the moment.

" I love you too" he whispered back kissing my head.I smiled and nuzzled my face into his neck.

Soon after that we laid down on his bed and watched a movie. I didn't pay attention to any of it though as I kept going through the day with a smile on my face as I played with the necklace around my neck.
