Time: 10:38 pm.
Setting: Tomlinson Residence.
Ashton: (opens door, sees Luke waiting for him in doorway, smiles) Hi, Lukey. (Luke smiles and nods his head, Ashton turns around to face Niall who is behind him) See you, Ni. (Niall moves to hug Ashton but Ashton takes a step back, slightly uncomfortable) Um...
Niall: (hurt but understands) We'll work up to it. (glances up at Luke) This the blonde giant, then?
Luke: (unimpressed, to Ashton) Is that what you've been calling me behind my back, nowadays?
Ashton: (cheeky) No, that's the censored version.
Luke: (clicks tongue) Rude.
Niall: (holds hand out) I'm Niall. Horan.
Luke: (glances at Niall's hand, doesn't move to shake it) Luke Hemmings.
Ashton: (rolls his eyes, to Luke) Play nice. (to Niall) Don't worry. He's like this to everyone. Programmed to dislike people when he first meets them.
Luke: (pouts) Mean.
Ashton: (giggles, wraps an arm cautiously around Luke's waist, Luke is surprised but doesn't push him away; Luke wraps an arm around Ashton's shoulder with a smile, to Niall, fake-whispers) He's really a teddy bear underneath it all.
Niall: (laughs, teasing) I see the appeal. (Ashton blushes) Cute.
Ashton: (hugs Luke with both arms, pouting) No, Ni. Mine.
Luke: (pleased, tries not to show it) I'm right here, y'know?
Niall: Calm down, Ash. I'm a taken man. (laughing) And if I liked men, I'd like them short and big-bummed.
Ashton: Don't let Harry hear you say that. He'll never let you near Lou again.
Niall: (chuckles) Will do. (to Luke) Watch this poor child, please.
Ashton: (squeaking) I am twenty-two, thank you very much!
Luke: (pulls Ashton slightly) Let's go, koala. You need to rest. Early shift tomorrow.
Ashton: (teasing) Aw, you remembered my schedule.
Luke: (deadpanned) I had to copy, print and post it at both our apartments because you're a lazy arse.
Ashton: Shut up. (to Niall) Bye, Ni. (Luke mumbles a goodbye)
Niall: (laughing) Bye, boys.
QOTD: How have Luke and Ashton changed from the beginning of the story? How have they stayed the same?
Note: I was really going to wait until the Internet was up and fully functional but you guys are just really great readers and I felt I should at least try while I'm at work. So, thank you babies for being so patient. I'll do my best to update every day or every other day. Baiiii <3
