Note: Updating cuz you guys are sweeties and I'm hella fucking excited for the next chapter cuz Lashton moment and I'm dying so I want y'all to die along with me!!

So, first, some Ally-Lukey time!! Comment "rulers" if you want the next update in the next hour or so!

>>>

Time: 7:35 pm.
Setting: Luke's Room. Room 343.

Aleisha: I'll be leaving soon.

Luke: (glances up from his phone) Oh yeah. Summer vacation, right? (thinks) Though, it'll be cold in Oz.

Aleisha: Yeah. I finish exams this week. (happy) Then I'm off!

Luke: (joking, fake sigh of relief) Good riddance. (laughs when Aleisha throws him a pillow) I'm kidding! (honest) I will miss you dearly, Ally.

Aleisha: (blushes slightly) Shut up. (slowly) You know, you could come with me? (carefully) It might be a good time to see them again.

Luke: (frowns) It's been four years. Answer is still 'no'.

Aleisha: (sighs) Ugh. For God's sake, Ben is about to have a kid! Don't you wanna see your niece or nephew?

Luke: (scoffs) He probably won't let me near it. Might be afraid I'll give it the gay. Infect the poor infant.

Aleisha: C'mon, Luke. You know your brothers love you. Both of them miss you. Your parents, too.

Luke: (rolls eyes) Say what you want. (serious) I'm not going back. (sighs) Besides, can't afford it. Trip costs like four grand. I don't have that kind of cash on me.

Aleisha: You can bo-

Luke: (sharp) No. I don't borrow money. You know how much I hate asking people for help.

Aleisha: (raises hands in defeat) It was just a suggestion.

Luke: (nods, smiles to show he's not upset) I know, Ally. I'm just not up for it.

Aleisha: (teasing) I like this new side to you.

Luke: (raises eyebrow) What new side?

Aleisha: Domesticated Luke. All nice and understanding. Married life suits you.

Luke: (blushes) Shut up. (pauses) Besides, I'm the husband. If anything, Ashton would be the whipped one.

Aleisha: (obviously disbelieving) Mhm. Of course.

Luke: (red) We're not really married. Or even dating. (shoulders deflate) He's straight.

Aleisha: (pointing out) So are rulers. But, like men, some are made of wood and some are made of plastic. Wood may stay straight but plastic bends.

Luke: (low chuckle, under his breath) Until it snaps.

Note: I'm thinking of a major plot twist. Hm. My mind is still working this whole thing out.

QOTD: What is the deal with Luke and his family? How does Luke feel about him and Ashton being in a relationship?
