Chapter 28

Luke's POV

I was woken by someone jumping on the bed. "Luke! Wake up, it's Christmas! Come on! Lukey, wake up!" He shouts. I chuckled at his behavior but can you blame him it's his first Christmas. I get up and he takes a blanket. He takes my hand and entwines it and we walk downstairs and I see Jack, Ben, and my mum. "It's about time Ashton has been trying to wake you up for about 10 minutes." Jack says. "Sorry." We sit on the couch. "Luke you're first." Liz says. I get Ashton's present and I give you it to him. He unwraps it and he gasps. "Oh Lukey this is amazing!" He grins.

"Here." I hand him the photos my mum took so he can put it on it. "Ooh perfect." He says and I peck his lips. "Okay, Jack."

(BTW they aren't going to give every present to Ash they at least get one)

"Here Ben." Jack says and hands it to him.

After everyone got there present it was Ashton's turn. "Okay Luke close your eyes, Liz make sure he closes his eyes." He says and I laugh. I close my eyes shut and soon enough Ash said open. I opened and I saw a brand new guitar. I was awestruck. "Do you like it?" He asked shyly. "Like it, I love it!" I shout he grins. "Well Jack and I have a Christmas party to go to." Ben says. "Okay have fun." My mum says. "Yeah and I have this adult Christmas game at work to go to." My mum says. Ash and I go upstairs. I play with my guitar and Ash organizes his photos.

I hear him giggle every now and then placing the pictures in the picture board. I tuned my guitar. I set my guitar down and look at Ash. He was almost done just a few more. I remember that one. "I took that picture when you fell one the ice when we were getting the Christmas tree." I point. "Yeah, it wasn't funny." He says. "Remember this one, it was just last night." He says. It was the one where we were covered with flour. I hear him giggle. He picks it up and takes it to his dresser. I take my guitar to my room when I come back Ash was sitting criss cross.

"How'd you get the money to buy the guitar?" I asked, curious. "I got my ways." He says. I go into bed behind him and I wrap my arms around his waist and bring him back. "Luke." He giggles. He rolls over to the other side of the bed and he goes on his side. "How was your first Christmas?" I ask. "It was the best, I really loved it." He says. "Good." I smile. "Ashton, go on a date with me?" I asked. "Is that how you're going to ask me?" He says. "Well is there another way I could ask you." I say. "How about, will you go on a date with me?" He says.

"Okay, will you go on a date with me?"I asked. "No I'm just kidding the first one was perfect and yeah I'll go on date with you." He says. I roll my eyes. "Okay we are leaving in a hour where something warm." I say he nods.

"Okay Ash, you ready?" I asked. "Well yeah. I've been blindfolded the whole way here." He laughs. "Okay... open." I say. He opens and he smiles. "An ice skating rink, Luke I love it!" He shouts. We get out of the car hand in hand. We get our ice skates and we head out on the rink. Ashton holds me hand and holds on to the rail. But soon enough he falls to the floor bringing me down with him.

We burst out laughing, not caring if people give us weird looks because who cares if you're being weird, if you're having fun who the fuck cares. We get back up and make a trip around the rink before our feet start to hurt so we get out of the rink and we drive to the diner.

Ashton's POV

We went to the diner for dinner, but I am nervous because I haven't ate in a while, but Luke can't know that I don't want him to worry about me. "I'll have a coke." Luke says. "I'll have a water." I say. The waiter nods and leaves. I look at the menu deciding to get a salad. "What are you going to get?" I asked. "Hmmm, maybe a BLT." He says. "What about you?" He asked. "A salad." I simply say. He looks at me, but he doesn't talk about it.

"Here are your drinks, have you decided what you're going to eat?" He asked. "I'll have a salad." I say, he writes it down. "And I'll have the BLT." Luke says, he writes it down and leaves. "Ash, you're getting a salad." He confirms. "Yeah, why?" I ask, nervous. "Just asking." He says.

---

When we finished eating Luke went up to pay and I went to the restroom. I went in a stall and I threw up my salad.

There. Doesn't that feel so much better now you have it out of your system.

Even though I didn't eat it all it was too much for me. I went out of the restroom I saw Luke standing outside the door with his arms crossed, him giving me a disappointed look. He didn't say anything he walked his way out of the diner and went to his car.

He didn't speak to me the whole way home when we got home he didn't talk, just went to his room. I went to my room deciding to do homework. I know what you're thinking what kind of school gives out homework over Christmas vacation, well our school does. Once I finished doing my homework I had to do this kid named Kyle's homework he's on the football team.

I tried saying no but he just punched me in my stomach. I didn't like that so I had to say yes. He wasn't the nice ones to pay me though but it's okay, I didn't need any money, I just needed it to buy the guitar for Luke. I was too busy thinking I didn't hear Luke come in. "Ash who's homework are you doing?" He asked. "N-no ones." I stutter. "Who's Kyle?" He asked. "No one." I say. "Ash, is this the Kyle on the football team?" He asked.

I didn't say anything. "Why do you do his homework?" He asked. "He said if I didn't do it he'll hurt me, and when I said yes he still punched me and call me pathetic." I say. "Oh he's so going to get it." He says. "But let's get off this topic." He says. "Ash, when you went in the restroom did you-" He says but I nod. "I know Luke I'm a disappointment." I sigh.

Yes you are. You know you are. You can't change the fact that you're a pathetic worthless freak and you always will be.

"You aren't a disappointment, I can help you okay, we'll start small, how long has this been going on?" He asked. "A while." I say. He only nods. "Let's go to sleep since we have school tomorrow, and we'll talk in the morning." He says I nod.

Luke was waiting for me on the bed. I was in the bathroom without a shirt just staring at my figure. Hating how my body looked. "You are really beautiful." Luke says. I shake my head, knowing it wasn't true.

Whoever thinks you're beautiful must be blind. I don't know Luke's problem though.

"Even though you won't believe me, you are very perfect all your flaws you hate, I love them, even the tiniest flaws, I love every single bit." He smiles and pecks my cheek. I put my shirt back on and going to the bed. We dig under the covers, the warmth soothing me, Luke cuddles closer to me. "Goodnight, Lukey." I say. "Goodnight princess, I love you." "I love you too." I smile. Then we drift off to sleep.
