Chapter 27

December 24th

Ashton's POV

"Luke, I think there's someone in the house." I say but he doesn't wake up. So I just get out of bed and out the room. I walk downstairs and I see a man dressed in all black. We make eye contact and he rushes to me. I run upstairs but he caught me and dragged me down. "What do you want?" I asked. He didn't answer. "Who are you?" I asked. He took off his mask and revealed my father.

"Dad?" He smirked and pulled out a knife. "Dad, please don't do it." I begged. But he came closer until he stabbed me in my stomach. He left it in my stomach and left.

I shot up, sweating. Oh gosh it was just a dream. "Ashton." Luke mumbled. "Sorry Luke I had a bad dream." I say. He sits up and comes closer to me. "Are you okay?" He asked. I nodded. "Want to talk about it?" He asked. "Well,  it all started when I heard someone in the house, I tried waking you up but you didn't wake up so I went downstairs and saw a man dressed in all black and he ran to me and it was my father, he stabbed me and just left me there." I spoke with a shaky voice.

"It's okay Ash, he's not here he got put in jail." He said. "But when he does get out what if he comes and finds me." I say. "It's okay, I'll protect you, your dad won't touch you okay." He reassured. I nod. We laid down and went to sleep.

I woke up before Luke so Liz and I can get his present. I got dressed and met Liz in the car. "Okay are you ready?" She asked. I nod. We drive to the guitar shop. Once we got in we looked around for the specific one. Once we found it I bought it and made our way home. We get in the garage and I hid the guitar in the storage locker that Liz told me to hide it in.

"It's really sweet you're buying this for him." She cooed. "I'd do anything for him." I say. "How'd you get the money to buy it?" She asked. "I have my sources." I say and we go into the house. Truth is people have been paying me to do their homework. I was going back to my room and I bumped into Luke. "Sorry." I said. "It okay." He laughed. "Where were you?" He asked. "Out with your mum." I said.

"Was she showing you baby pictures again?" He groaned. "No, but I want to see more." I say running to Liz. But Luke grabbed me by my waist and picked me up. "Oh no you don't." He said bringing me to his room. He sat me on his lap. "My baby pictures aren't that interesting." He said. "To me they are I like them." I say. "They're embarrassing." He says. "I didn't want my mum to show anyone, she can be embarrassing." He laughs. "I love your mum, she's the best." I smile. "She is isn't she." He says with a grin on his face.

"Can I go see more baby pictures?" I ask not waiting for a response I just take off leaving the room. "Ashton get back here!" He yelled. "Liz!" I yelled. I saw her but before she could answer Luke picked me up and threw me over his shoulders. "Liz." I say. She looks up. "Mum he wants nothing." Luke says putting a hand over my mouth. I lick it causing him to wipe it on my hair. I fall to the floor laughing so does he. Liz takes this opportunity to take a picture of us. "You guys are cute." She says and walks away. Once we were done laughing Luke puts me over his shoulder again and head back to his room.

"You can't see anymore baby pictures you haven't even seen the embarrassing ones yet." He says. I smile and get up and head to the door but Luke's arms are around my waist and pulls me back on the bed. "Fine I won't look at anymore baby pictures." I say, giving up. "Thank you." He kisses my nose. I giggle,"When you were a baby you were cute, but you still are cute." I say. "I'm not cute, I'm manly." He says. "You're manly as a baby penguin." I laugh.

"Penguins are cute." He says. "They are." I say. "Guys dinner!" We hear Liz yell. Luke takes my hand and we go downstairs.

Better not eat that Ashton, there are soo many calories and trust me you don't need them.

I'm trying to get better for Luke it's working and the voice in my head is going away, a little bit. So I ate. Dinner was good, few laughs here and there. Right now we are making chocolate chip cookies. It's just me and Luke, Ben and Jack went somewhere I forgot and Liz likes to leave us alone. "You can't eat the batter!" I say to Luke. "Why not, it's good." He says. He dips his finger in one more time. "Wanna try some?" He asked. I shrug. "Okay I see why you were doing that, but no more." I say. While he was taking out the cookie cutters I dipped my finger in the batter. I tapped Luke on the shoulder and when he turned around I put the batter on his nose.

"Hey!" He says. He gets some flour. "Don't you dare!" I exclaim. He throws it on me, most of it got in my hair. I got some flour and threw it at him. Then we saw a flash. We looked and it was Liz. "Too cute." She smiles at the picture and walks away not caring about the mess. "Okay let's make the cookies." Luke says and I nod.

Once the cookie were in the oven we were going to take a shower. We get our pajamas and Luke gets two towels and we start the shower. "Look how much flour is in my hair." I say and shake my head and the flour flies out. Luke laughs and does the same. We step in the shower rinsing our hair to get the flour out. I get the shampoo and put it on my hair. I pass it to Luke.

We were done with our shower and we were now eating cookies,drinking hot cocoa with marshmallows, sitting by the fire, and watching a Christmas show. The Christmas show finally ended and Liz told us to brush our teeth and go to bed. We go upstairs and brush our teeth and we get in bed. Luke automatically wraps his arm around me. "Goodnight Luke, I love you." I say. "Goodnight princess, I love you too." He says and we go to sleep.
