Secrets ~ Lashton + Malum AU

Epilogue

Yeah, this is the end :(

I really liked this book and I just wanna thank everyone for reading and commenting and voting and I love you all.

This chapter is short and probably shite but I didn't want to drag it on for too long.

Anyway, I give you the epilogue.

unedited :3

Epilogue

Liz was still hugging her son tightly as the doctors took Michael away and Ashton and Calum were watching, just as distraught as Luke was.

"I looked into his future..." Luke spoke up to the boys, biting his lip.

Ashton and Calum both looked at Luke, frowning. Ashton swam over and Luke let go of his mum to hug Ashton instead.

"You don't have to tell us." Ashton whispered, closing his eyes as he felt his ring finger tingle.

"No, He's gonna be okay. He's going to survive. He's just low on energy right now." Luke let out a sob as he explained, smiling a little.

"He's okay." He choked out, snuggling close to Ashton.

Ashton looked over at Calum, mouth wide and Calum was almost beaming.

"Are you serious? I swear to god if this is a sick joke I'll-"

"I'm not kidding. He just used up a lot of his energy bringing you back and it was a bit much but the doctors will help him. He'll be okay." Luke sniffled, smiling wide as he looked at his mum.

Calum swam over, hugging both him and Ashton.

"I'm so relieved." Ashton breathed out, shaking his head. "It would've been all my fault." He whispered, sighing.

Luke frowned, looking at him. "No, baby it's not your fault." Luke cooed.

Ashton blushed, looking up at Luke. "Baby?" Ashton and Calum asked in unison.

Luke flushed, fiddling his fingers. "Um...sorry. I just thought that last nig-"

Ashton blushed and covered Luke's mouth. "It's okay, just surprised me." He giggled. "Let's go see Mikey, make sure he's in good hands." Luke said, taking Ashton's hand.

Luke knew Michael was in good hands. He knew things would be fine. The only thing he didn't know was what him and Ashton were.

Calum followed behind the two with Liz and Luke played with Ashton's fingers.

"So...are we like, a thing now or...?" Luke asked, glancing at Ashton.

Ashton shrugged, shyly looking down at the sea ground as they swam.

"I mean, if you want to we can." Ashton said.

"Well, if you want to, I want to." Luke said.

"Do you want to?" Ashton asked.

"Do you?"

Ashton blushed, shrugging. "I really like you, hopefully that like turns into something more one day but yeah, I want to. I want to so bad."

Luke smiled. "So you'll be my boyfriend?" Luke asked, looking at Ashton who was still blushing.

"Yeah I'll be your boyfriend." Ashton giggled.

----

It had been two years. Things had turned out perfect.

Ashton and Michael were still getting the hang of the whole king thing but they were getting there; they had each other.

Calum and Michael were still going strong, Calum a real citizen of Atlanta now and Michael's fiancé.

Luke and Ashton were also doing perfectly fine. Ashton had a baby Lashton growing inside of him after visiting Joy and David and things getting heated in Ashton's old bedroom.

Ashton claimed it was Luke's fault in which Luke always whined and stated that it 'takes two to tango' and that always ended in them laughing.

All of the people adored the kings and their partners and Ashton and Michael adored the equality that Atlanta held even though, like everywhere else there were some unaccepting people but they didn't mind, because everything was okay.

Ashton and Luke had their baby, Michael and Calum had a wedding to plan, and Luke had a baby sister named Ava and a new step dad who was the guard who they met when going to leave the first time to get Calum.

Yeah, things were great.

They wouldn't change a thing for the world.

Even the land people now knew of the mermaids and mermen all around and the kings had spent so long making agreements and deals and it was illegal for the humans to hunt the merpeople.

There were no more worries, and there were no more secrets.
