Punks Meet Flower Crowns >> Lashton AU ✔️

48. ~ Anger*

Note: Correction. This is chapter 48 not 47. I accidentally forgot to put up 47. My surprise Gemma has been ruined now. -_-

>>>

Time: 10:39 pm.
Setting: Movie Theatre Parking Lot.

Luke: (surprised, then angry) What are you doing with Ashton's phone and why the hell are you calling me?

Gemma: (frazzled) I'm sorry. It's just that you were the most recent of his contacts on the phone and I didn't think. (to herself) He still keeps his password as his birthday. (sigh)

Luke: (worried) What happened? Where's Ashton? (shushes Alex as he begins to ask what's wrong) I swear to God, if something happened to him...(leaves empty threat)

Gemma: He ran away.

Luke: (exasperated) Why?

Gemma: (nervous) I-I came by to see him.

Luke: (sharp) Why the hell would you do that?

Gemma: (loudly) Because I haven't seen him since the divorce and I wanted to know how he was doing! Regardless of what happened, Ash and I were once friends and - as a friend - I came to check up on him. (scoffs) I shouldn't even have to explain myself to some stranger.

Luke: (mad) My name is Luke fucking Hemmings, thank you very much. Now that that's out of the way - where would he go?

Gemma: (shocked) Uh...Calum?

Luke: On holiday in Oz.

Gemma: Oz?

Luke: (irritated) Slang for Australia. Get with the damn program. Hell, can't believe you were married to an Australian.

Gemma: (worried) I called Harry and Louis. He's not there. I don't know where else he would go.

Luke: (blinks, thinking) I might have an idea. Goodbye, Gemma. (gets in car)

Gemma: Please find him. He's not good when he's alone. Or upset.

Luke: (hangs up, turns to Alex) Short story is Ashton ran away. I think he's in my hotel room.

Alex: (nods) Leggo'.

Note: It's finals this and next week so I might not update for a little while - maybe just one chapter every few days or so. I'll post like mad once summer hits, so, don't fret.
