Arrows|Lashton| (BoyxBoy)

Chapter 2

Ashton's POV

"Look at the freak!" Chad yelled. I stayed quiet. Everyone laughed. Ignore them. Keep walking. And that's what I did. "What's wrong fag, cat got your tongue?" Chad asked, mockingly obviously.  As he came up to me. I avoided eye contact from him. He threw two punches, one too my jaw and another too my stomach. I groaned and fell to the floor. No one did anything. Not even Luke. "You are a worthless fag, no one wants you, just die and do everyone a favor." He laughed and walked away with his group.

I noticed Luke walking away with his group. He looked at me with an apologetic look. I shook my head in anger and went to class. I sat in the back of the class getting out what I need for class. I took out a pencil and drew more arrows. Luke rushed in the class. Do I have every class with him? He saw me and walked up to me. "Ashton I'm so very sorry I should have defended you." He apologizes.

I ignore him. "Please Ashton." He begs. The teacher walked in and Luke went to his seat which was in the front of the class. I mentally thanked the teacher for perfect timing.

Lunch came around and I went to the library because Luke was not going to be there. I doubt he even knows where the library is or what it is. I sat in the far back like I always do. I see Luke coming through the doors. So he does know where it is. Shocker. He spots me and comes towards me. I let out a groan. Why is he everywhere? He sits down across from me at the table.

"Ashton, I am really sorry I didn't defend you." He says again. "Say something, please?" He begged. "You said you wanted to be my friend, right?" I ask. He nods. "If you want to be my friend how can I trust you, friendship is all about trust and reliability when I needed you the most you weren't there." I say. "I do want to be your friend, I know I said I wouldn't leave you. I will keep that promise. But Chad he is the captain of the team he says if I want to be on the team and want to be popular he says I can't hang out with you, and I couldn't help you when he's around." Luke says.

"So you choose popularity over me, am I not important enough, you know I guess not because you don't want to be seen with me I bet you're embarrassed to be seen with me. You keep saying you're sorry you didn't defend me, you had your chance and you blew it. Screw you Luke, never talk to me." I snapped at him. "Ashton it's not really like that." Luke said. "Really then what is it like?" I ask, fed up with him. He doesn't speak. I scoff. "I thought so." I say and leave the library. "Wait Ash!" He called. I stopped and turned. "What?" I ask. "Please... hear me out. I meant to defend you but my teammates were there so I couldn't." Luke said. Realization struck his eyes as he realized what he said.

"Wow, so you do choose popularity over me. I should've known, the Luke Hemmings would never be friends with a anti social fag like me, or that's what your friends say. Of course you would know, you're always there, but never do anything about it. I hate you Luke Hemmings, I really do." I said. Then walked out.
