"Isn't she cute? Come on, Luke! I think she's cute." Ashton shoved his phone into Luke's face who was getting annoyed now becaus he has this really huge test coming up and really needs to focus right now.

"Well I don't find girls attractive so you're asking the wrong person." Luke replied, highlighting his notes quickly and continued to read his textbook.

"She's so cute! Way cute! Do you think she would think I'm cute? Huh, Luke? I'm cute, right?"

Luke rolled his eyes. "The cutest."

Ashton smiled at that and continued to scroll through this girls instagram. He was silent for a bit and Luke appreciated this silence. All you could hear was Luke's rapid writing and the occasional mumble from him reading until Ashton accidently liked one of the photos from months ago.

"SHIT!" He yelled out of nowhere, causing Luke to over highlight a word off the paper and onto his white desk.

"Aw man! Look what you made me do! What?!" He scrunched up his eyebrows and glared at Ashton.

"I'M GOING TO LOOK LIKE A STALKER NOW! OH GOD, LUKE! I LIKED A PHOTO FROM MONTHS AGO AND SHE'S GOING TO HATE ME!"

Luke pinched in between his eyebrows. "Ashton.. she's a model with one million followers. She's not going to notice that one like. Find your chill." He sighed and looked at his notes.

"I guess it's not that bad." He went back to work and it went silent again until Ashton, again, yelled. No words. He just yelled.

Luke dropped his textbook, it hit the floor losing the page number and Luke groaned over Ashton's bloody murder screaming.

"What now?" Luke complained and Ashton shoved his phone in his face once again. Then Luke's eyes widened. There on his screen was a notification saying that the model followed him and liked his recent selfie with Luke.

Ashton was lost at words now. "Wh-what do I do?" He stuttered out. Luke couldn't believe his eyes when he saw a dm pop up on his screen.

"Ashton, oh my god. You got a dm right now."

Ashton quickly tapped on the dm and had the biggest, goofiest smile on his face as he waited for it to load. Then when it did, the smile dropped and so did his heart. He looked at Luke who had an eager, impatient expression on his face. He locked his phone however and tossed it onto Luke's bed, and put his face in his hands.

"Ash? Hey, what did it say?"

Ashton shook his head and mumbled "See for yourself."

Luke reached over him and grabbed his phone off his bed. He unlocked the screen to the dm and read it.

Hey, are you the blonde or brunette? I'm into blondes. ;)

Luke typed something very quickly in his anger. Which shouldn't be surprising at all.

Ashton is the smokin' hot brunette and Luke is the flamboyant blonde. His instagram is luke_is_pink and his BOYFRIEND is calumhood. Have a nice day.xx

Then he didn't bother waiting for a response, he hugged his best friend. Ashton hugged him harder than usual, but Luke didn't mind.

"Why am I so shocked? I haven't even had my first kiss yet.." He said sadly and Luke's eyebrows rose.

"What?? Are you serious?"

"I'm dead serious, Luke." Ashton spoke into the shoulder of his taller best friend.

Luke felt bad, Ashton is a wonderful person who deserves so much more than he's got. It went quiet, no sound at all and it was just them hugging. Ashton was starting to feel that strange feeling he gets when he's with Luke.
